She Is Not a Witch Chapter 263: A school garden like a bird cage with vines


It was late after returning from the market in the small town, and there were fewer pedestrians on the street. The wooden houses in the small town were lit with orange lights, dotted in this peaceful forest.

When they arrived at the Ring Tree Hotel where they were staying, Lorraine Hill and Charlie ate a dinner of oranges and smoked fish, and then returned to their room to rest.

This is the third floor of the hotel. The entire hotel is built around a big tree. There are more than 20 scattered rooms on each floor, which shows the thickness of the big tree.

The furnishings in the room are simple and warm. They are basically made of local wooden furniture. There is a glowing potted plant on the table as a light source. If you want to sleep at night, you can cover the cover, which is equivalent to turning off the lights. .

Sitting at the small table, Lorraine Hill took a closer look at the glowing little tree, and satisfied his curiosity after a long while.

[Yingbai Xianxiu] (black iron level): It can transform the absorbed mana into a bright small shrub. It has been improved, and it also has the effect of repelling insects.

In the past, some plants would emit weak lights at night to attract insects to pollinate them. Later, the elves improved these plants for several generations, and now there are bright potted plants that not only no longer attract insects, but will It exudes a faint fragrance that repells mosquitoes, and is deeply loved by elves.

The rise of human beings is far less long than the time when elves ruled the mainland. During these long years, elves have also accumulated many technologies and abilities that are difficult for humans to master.

After observing the potted plants on the table, Lorraine Hill pushed open the small door of the balcony and stood by the wooden railing to look at the town at night.

The small river is like a stream, meandering in the small town, reflecting the lights in the houses, and the clear and sweet sounds of various insects from the corners of the grass in the forest, so that the night is no longer lonely, but there is another Lively and quiet in a sense.

Looking into the distance, behind the night covered by big trees, a large dome building is vaguely outlined, revealing its shape among the thick trees.

It's probably the school that Xia Li talked about during the day.

'A paradise in a cage entwined with vines', this is the school that Xia Li graduated from. The most famous thing in the whole school is the hollow building like a birdcage.

An ancient stone birdcage, entwined with green vines, leans slightly against the mountain wall, in the shade of the forest.

When teaching, the knowledgeable elder elves would stand on the circular square in the middle of the birdcage, while the young elves as students would land on the vines winding around the birdcage like butterflies.

These vines are not as thin as they look from a distance. Their thick structure is wrapped around the stone birdcage. After generations of students and teachers have taken care of them, they have formed small platforms for students to enjoy Stand or sit on it to listen to the class.

Charlie and the school scene she described turned around in her mind, and Lorraine Hill thought that before leaving tomorrow, she must go to that 'birdcage' to satisfy her curiosity.

At night, Lorraine Hill fell into a peaceful sleep under the comfortable white quilt.

The next day.

"Good morning~"

Early in the morning, Lorraine Hill was awakened by Xia Li's crisp knock on the door. While rubbing her eyes, the girl crawled out of bed reluctantly, and opened the door for Xia Li wearing slippers.

Recently, Lorraine Hill has developed the habit of sleeping in late in the morning, and he still feels a little uncomfortable after changing it suddenly.

"Let's go have some breakfast, Jialan." Urging Lorraine Hill to comb her hair quickly and change her clothes, Xia Li couldn't wait to take this new friend out to eat.

"Okay, wait a minute."

Lorland Hill responded a little helplessly, then reached into the cool water basin, sprinkled water drops on his face to wash his face, and woke himself up a bit, before going downstairs with Xia Li.

The hair on the forehead and sides is still a little wet, walking in the morning breeze, there is some coolness, Lorraine Hill stands on the cobblestone street of the town, watching the sun rise in the distance place.

The orange-red sun rises in the east, its shape is cut by the tall trees, the sunlight shines on the forest, forming bright and dark trails, the tiny water mist floats and dissociates in the morning light, and slowly evaporates .

"It's beautiful, the beauty in the morning can only be seen by hard-working people." After paying the bill at the hotel, Xia Li came to Lorraine Hill.

"The former teacher told us that the sun in the morning light is a more beautiful scenery than the sunset at dusk. It also has a kind of vigor and hope that the sunset does not have. You can see the snow-white clouds in the sky. Illuminated a rare gold by the sun below, flowing under the blue and clear sky."

"Exactly."

Lorraine Hill nodded with deep empathy. She still saw the golden clouds in the morning when she was in elementary school. In junior high school, she either got up too late or got up too early, and went to school before dawn So much so that such a scene can only remain in childhood memory.

"Let's go, I'll take you to eat something good."

Then, Charlie pulled Lorraine Hill towards the other side of the river. They crossed the small bridge and the street, turned around the big trees, and then stopped in front of a stone hut under a big tree. .

This seems to be a place for making pastries and bread. It looks like a thick and short mushroom, and there is a burst of sweet smell from the stone chimney behind.

When we came here, there were already a lot of elf students queuing up here. Fortunately, the line was not too long, as long as we waited for a while, we would be able to wait.

Lorraine Hill watched the elf students walk towards the academy while eating a book bag in one hand and a lotus leaf-wrapped pastry in the other.

When Lorraine Hill came to the store, she took a look at the warm and colorful decorations in the store.

The owner of the shop is an elf couple. They have silver hair and wear aprons, and they are busy for the students who come to buy breakfast.

"I want two cherry parfaits, Sister Tiss~" Xia Li spoke first, she seemed to be very familiar with the shop owner.

"Okay. So it's Xia Li, are you back now?" The mature elf elder sister took out a piece of lotus leaf soaked in clear water, put the cut triangle pastry into it, and then put a few more A big cherry was on top and handed to Xia Li.

"Yeah, but this time I'm taking friends passing by, so I'll come back and stay longer next time."

"Hey, I can't say for sure, you young guys have one idea every day, and you may not know where you will go when the time comes."

"Okay, here, is this your friend." She looked at Lorraine Hill, who didn't have pointed ears, and was a little surprised and curious.

"Yes, this is Jialan, from Emenas, I will take her to the Emerald Court."

"What a good name, it sounds like someone from the East. I haven't been to the East for a long time, and I miss it a little now." Speaking of which, the mature elf woman handed two pastries to Xia Li and Lorraine .

"Then let's go, come again next time~"

The Valley

After that, Xia Li and Lorraine Hill walked out together, and then slowly explained.

"I used to come to this store often when I was in school, so I am very familiar with it. I have always liked their pastries. They are not too hot, and they are also paired with iced fresh fruits. They taste very good~" Xia Li highly recommends it.

Lorraine Hill nodded with a smile, and then took a small sip to taste it.

The pastry seems to be steamed with rice flour mixed with other ingredients. There is a kind of stimulation, a kind of refreshing comfort.

"It's delicious."

"I'm right, hehe."

After eating the cakes, the two walked on the gravel road under the tall trees, turned around for a while, and finally came to the school.

The lawn in front of the academy is covered with white stone slabs, gradually connecting the forest with the academy. There is no wall here, and standing under the tall tree canopy in front of the academy, you can see most of the buildings in the academy.

The largest and most famous building is naturally the huge auditorium classroom that looks like a birdcage. Currently, classes are being taught in it. A forest elf teacher demonstrates spells, and emerald birds take shape in front of him. Then fly around the tall birdcage auditorium.

Soon, a burst of admiring applause came from the Birdcage Auditorium.

Except for the largest auditorium classroom, other teachers and students are either on the lawn under the tree or in the tall tree-lined classroom, talking about their respective courses.

Students and teachers here either sit or lie down, and do not deliberately prescribe which posture. Some of them lean on the soft white tiger, watching the teacher lecture, and only occasionally take out their books when they feel the need Jot something down.

From the various subtle voices in the wind, Lorraine Hill gradually perceived and understood the content of these lectures, which roughly included mathematics, history, culture, extraordinary training, fighting, herbal medicine, and even some Minority aesthetics.

Compared with Emenas, this place is like the central school building for the first graders and part of the Walled City Academy, and the courses taught are very similar.

However, it does not involve the religion, death, priests, chaos, and purification of Temple College, nor does it include the famous courses of Tower Academy and Bridge Pier Academy, such as science, alchemy, military, law code, dragon changes, etc. of.

Although there are fewer subjects, considering that this is not the largest academy in the forest, it is very good to adapt measures to local conditions and consider the conditions for running the school.

"How about it, isn't it familiar and kind?" Xia Li turned her head and said with a smile.

"Actually, I have been to Emenas once, and that time I also followed the instructor to communicate and learn."

"Emenas is indeed very big, and the sages are also very powerful, but I still prefer this place, because it is more comfortable to stay here, without too many scruples, and there is not so fierce competition."

"Ahaha, is it a bit boastful? In fact, sometimes we envy those students who can be admitted to Emenas. However, if they don't make it, it won't be too regretful."

"I'll take you around the academy, it's not a waste of time."

Afterwards, Xia Li took Lorraine Hill to wander around this shady academy, and introduced to her what courses are usually taught here, where there is a dining room, and there is a group of mushrooms behind the mountain wall There is a small house like a student dormitory, as well as caves and lakes where students usually play and party.

It was already noon when the two of them roughly finished walking the academy.

"Then, it's time to go, Jialan."

After returning to the small town, Xia Li and Lorraine Hill took the white 'bird' again, and gradually got out of it with the flapping of its wings, and jumped into the vast forest again.

This time, as they gradually entered the depths of the forest, many changes took place in the surrounding environment.

What you see is no longer the villages and small towns where dozens or hundreds of people gathered in the past, but cities with a large population.

Most of these cities have wooden or white rock structures, built under rivers and under the shade of trees, where there are airships, monsters landing from time to time, and a bit of a forest elf.

The city is not a single plane, but a complex three-dimensional structure, which is built on the hillside and among the giant trees.

And after passing through the dense forest, the scenery in front of them became brighter, and a vast field appeared in the eyes of the two of them.

Because of planting different crops, these fields present huge squares of different colors on the ground, some are light yellow, some are green, some are light red with green, some are in full bloom with purple flowers, and so on. Some forest elves were wearing thick white wide-sleeved clothes, carrying baskets and tools, walking on the path in the field, and there were big boars dragging iron plows in the field, making snoring sounds from time to time, being guided by the elves in front of them. forward.

After leaving the forest, the field of vision suddenly widened. Apart from the fields in the huge valley below, Lorraine Hill could also see the big trees in the hazy clouds in the distance.

"That's the 'Three Sacred Trees' in the Emerald Garden today. They were re-cultivated by the ancestors after the World Tree collapsed." Xia Li explained simply, pointing at the outline of the big tree.

"In the past, there were three elves living under the world tree. The silver elves were good at forging and were famous for their martial arts and dancing. The forest elves were keen on planting and would use bows and arrows as their main weapons. The ice elves were mostly calm. There are more spellcasters."

"This is the traditional way of distinguishing in the past. Although it is not suitable now, you can still roughly see the different styles of each elf."

"I'm going to the Emerald Court soon, Jialan has to follow me closely, otherwise I'll get lost, heck."

Then, while flying in the soothing wind, Charlie began to talk about the situation in the Emerald Court.

"There are a lot of forest elves there. There are probably millions of elves living under the 'Three Sacred Trees', and the buildings and streets inside are very complicated. They are not as uniform as humans, but use more rings. Or a semicircular structure, like a large ring with a small ring, distributed under the holy tree."

"Each large ring is a relatively complete living environment, with shops, houses, daily necessities, and some even small schools and libraries."

"The 26 largest rings are the most densely populated places in the Emerald Garden ~IndoMTL.com~ It is very prosperous inside, with opera houses, art galleries, large fountain squares, and comfortable hot spring baths. You can also take a long-distance airship, but that is slower, not as fast as our 'bird'."

"Mistress Vestana lives in the 'Golden Leaf Corolla' ring, oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you, the 26 largest rings are all named after the corolla, such as 'Blue Calyx Corolla', 'Thorn Leaf Corolla' ''Red dyed corolla' and so on."

"The Emerald Court is very large, some of the corollas, even I did not take all of them, but I am more familiar with the 'Golden Leaf Corolla' and the 'Blue Calyx Corolla', if you stay in the Emerald Court for a long time, it is You can look more, each corolla has its own characteristics, and there is a slight competition between them."

"Then, the introduction ends here first, we need to speed up, Jialan. Hold on tight to me, hahaha~"

Speaking, a burst of refreshing laughter crossed the blue sky, running towards the distant silhouette of the giant tree, and the bustling scene in the Emerald Garden was slowly reflected in Lorraine Hill's eyes.
