After spending a busy time in Solander, Lorraine Hill finally flew towards the courtyard in his memory.
Passing through the vast land of Cranthia, climbing over the mountains and forests of Tisilan, and finally arriving at the familiar red maple garden.
Although autumn has not yet arrived, the scenery here is still a fiery red. The sunlight passes through the light red maple leaves and dyes the world into a warm crimson color. Under each red maple tree, there are layers of fallen leaves that have accumulated over time, turning the earth
It reflects the same color as the sky.
Walking among the maple trees, you can clearly hear the sound of the curled dead leaves breaking under your feet. Your fingers stroke the tree trunks nearby. The brown and black bark is like ravines and canyons. It is hard and rough, and you can't help but hear the cracks.
of rock.
Looking at the little bit of blue sky exposed among the maple leaves, a burst of bird song came from an unknown distance, adding a bit of tranquility and vitality to the place.
"Is this where Sister Lorraine lives?" Ye Ling and Lorraine Hill were walking in the maple leaf forest, looking left and right from time to time.
"Yes, I lived here for a long time before, and it was not until later that I went to Hopelaner and Emenas." Lorraine Hill stopped, placed the vine box at hand on the ground, and opened it.
Chirp, chirp~
Two birds flew out of the vine box one after another, chirping curiously and jumping onto the branches.
During the time when Lorraine Hill and Eidolon were returning, the two of them often stayed in the box, which saved them a lot of trouble. Maybe passers-by would think that the girl's box contained clothes and accessories, but in fact
All the clothes on Loland Hill are placed in the storage space. Only living things that are not suitable for storage are kept in this breathable rattan box.
Watching the two birds flying happily in the forest and chirping from time to time, Lorraine Hill also felt a lot happy and relaxed.
Even though a kind of maid in the Red Palm Palace took good care of her and Ye Ling, she still yearned for this unrestrained life.
"Let's go." Lorraine Hill climbed onto a rock in the forest and waved to the Eidolon behind him.
"Here I come~" Ye Ling trotted over with a soft whir, jumped slightly, and then landed next to the girl, showing a happy smile.
After turning several corners surrounded by red maples, and walking through the forest for a while, the two of them walked out from behind a boulder, and a vast and beautiful world appeared in front of them.
A sea of gorgeous red flowers is spread all over the open space, with pale golden stamens exposed among the slender petals, swaying in the breeze. In this sea of flowers, a towering tree with a diameter of more than 50 meters stands quietly. The fiery red shade in the distant sky
, from time to time some red leaves fall and float in this quiet world.
Looking across the sea of flowers in front of the giant tree, a small dome hut vaguely emerged. Compared with the towering giant tree behind it, this hut is so small, yet so peaceful, with a mysterious and distant temperament.
Bypassing this sea of blooming flowers, Lorraine Hill led Ye Ling towards the dusty cabin. The gray stone path had long been submerged in weeds, and the closed door lock was also covered with a layer of dust.
Open the simple door lock, and with a soft click, the wooden door opens, revealing the scenery inside the cabin.
The colors of the furniture made of red maple and the wooden boards of the house blend seamlessly together, creating a harmonious beauty.
"A lot of dust has accumulated again." Regarding this, Lorraine Hill sighed softly.
"Want to clean up? Ye Ling can help." The little dragon lady behind volunteered.
"Well, let's get started." As they spoke, Lorraine Hill and Eidolon put down their simple salutes, and then they opened the doors and windows of the house. A gentle breeze flowed in, blowing continuously and taking away all kinds of dust.
.
After the dust was almost gone, Eidolon took a bucket and fetched water from the well in front of the hut, and then washed the floor inside.
puff--
The water splashed out of the bucket and splashed on the wooden board, giving it a cold touch. Then the air flow in the air swirled and rotated, washing away the ground, walls, and furniture, and finally flew out of the window.
The slightly damp house was not suitable for entering for the time being. When the ventilation was turned on, the two floated to the tall red maple trees and sat on the trees to enjoy the cool air.
The wind passed through the body and feet, bringing a slightly cool touch. Lorraine Hill introduced the various facilities here to Eidolon.
"On the south side of this red maple forest, there is a valley with a small river running through it. You can usually go there to fetch water or fish. It seems good to soak in the water in summer. Anyway, the river is not deep and it is very cool."
"Okay." The little guy suddenly became happy when he heard that he could fish.
"I will make a small bed for you later. It turns out that the bed in the room is for Keti." When Lorraine Hill told the story, he suddenly missed Keti.
The two talked about various plans for staying in the forest, such as fishing, hiking to enjoy the scenery, planting flowers and grass, looking for small animals, etc.
It is still the end of June, and Lorraine Hill is planning to accumulate strength during this period, and then go to Emenas in August, so that he can deal with various emergencies.
But before going there, I'd better ask Tidais. It's been so long since I returned to Crancia and I haven't informed her yet. I don't know if the Phantom Witch is still active or where she might have gone to sleep.
This is what witches are like. After spending a long time, the things they are interested in will gradually become less and less. Some witches will specialize in certain things and become addicted to them for hundreds of years. Some witches will feel bored and just lie down in the prepared place.
Sleep in a secluded place for tens or hundreds of years, and then come out to see new changes.
Therefore, although there are still many witches in this world, it is difficult for ordinary people to hear about them because the frequency of their appearance in the eyes of the world is too low.
As the two of them talked, Lorraine Hill thought of a familiar friend again.
"Tomorrow, I will take you to visit a friend."
"Hey, is there anyone else living here?" Ye Ling opened his eyes wide and stopped with his two little legs dangling in the air.
"She is a neighbor. She lives in the fog in the north... no, under the ice lake. She is a very beautiful elf."
"Moreover, she also planted many beautiful flowers by the lake, so we will be able to see a very beautiful scenery."
"What kind of elf is that? I always feel that elf is quite mysterious."
"Well, how can I describe this well? It's probably like holding an icy blue umbrella, walking in your favorite field of wild flowers, admiring the blooming beauty, and thinking about the elf sister in the past." Lorraine Hill raised his finger.
Under the chin, recall the image of the ice elf princess Eshegreen.
"As long as she doesn't trample her flower field, she should be easy to get along with."
"If you still have free time later, you can also go to the south and have a look. It seems that there is a neighbor who has lived there for a long time. Unfortunately, I only heard about it from Red Maple Tree and never visited him. I heard that he is a guy who likes flames and lava.
"
"The red maple tree we are sitting on is alive. It has been neighbors with these two for a long time."
"Great, it feels so interesting~ It is indeed the right choice to follow Luo Lan to the Western Continent, hahaha."
Saying that, Ye Ling jumped down from the branch happily, with small dragon wings growing out from behind, constantly surrounding the fiery red maple trees, and letting out crisp laughter. As the little dragon girl cheered, Lorraine Hill also
I feel a sense of joy and joy coming from the red maple trees, and the maple leaves and tree bodies among the big trees also emit a faint hazy halo in the evening.
In this light red-orange halo, the maple leaf garden in the forest is like a fairy land isolated from the world, dreamy and beautiful.
