Chapter two hundred and ninety-eight cross the hill
Slightly heavy footsteps came from the corridor.
The little witch, who had been sleeping soundly in her arms, suddenly opened her eyes. The light in the room was a little dim, because the curtains were kept tightly closed to create good sleeping conditions for those who slept late.
Before the remaining sleepiness in her eyes dissipated, Li Meng's body had already taken charge of itself, and she quickly climbed out of bed. The convenience of magic was evident with the slight movement of her fingers - the curtains opened automatically, the windows quietly opened, and hot towels and mouthwash were provided.
Colliding in front of him, the pink robe trimmed with lace chased the little witch's figure and floated half the room, finally pulling her in.
Oh, and the stuffed bear that had been hanging on the corner of the bed was also freed.
"You know what to say!" The little witch pinched the stuffed bear's ears and lowered her voice to warn fiercely.
The stuffed bear's glass eyes, which had gradually glowed with brilliance due to the footsteps coming from the corridor, lost their brilliance again at the little witch's rough warning.
It's just a poor, helpless stuffed bear.
"Squeak!"
The dormitory door opens.
The familiar fragrance of my cousin jumped into the dormitory along with the draft.
The sun was shining brightly and the air was fresh in the dormitory. Li Meng was sitting upright behind her desk, holding a copy of "Big History·Modern World History" in her hands and studying seriously. Several quills were circling around her body, and she was studying from time to time.
One fell down and left a reading record in the notebook.
Seemingly noticing her cousin who had just walked in, Li Meng turned her head, her eyes clear, and asked with surprise: "Where did you go this morning? I read all morning and almost fell asleep..."
As she spoke, she stretched her arms in a serious manner and yawned widely.
This yawn is real.
Jiang Yu didn't say anything, but walked quietly to the little witch and raised her arms. Li Meng thought that her cousin noticed her little move and wanted to beat her, so she shrank into a ball in fear.
In the end, Jiang Yu just opened her arms and hugged the little witch.
They just hugged her quietly, burying her head in the rabbit hood of Li Meng's pink robe, and didn't look up for a long time.
The little witch was stunned for a moment, then breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
"It doesn't matter, there's still me." She patted the witch on the shoulder like a little adult, and comforted her in an old-fashioned way: "Life is bound to be a little unsatisfactory...there are no obstacles that can't be overcome."
Jiang Yu took a small breath and buried her head between the rabbit's ears for a long time.
Until Li Meng worriedly reminded her in a low voice: "Don't blow your nose into my hat..."
Jiang Yu finally raised her head, with red eyes, grabbed Li Meng's ears, and regained her usual cousin's coercion: "Next time you dare to sleep all morning, I will leave you under the care of my grandma!"
"I didn't sleep all morning!" Li Meng shouted loudly.
"Your bed is still steaming!"
"...That was Li Neng farting just now!"
The stuffed bear looked at the little witch with a shocked face, and involuntarily touched his butt with his claws - he never knew that he had the ability to fart!

…
North District of Beta Town, Gudiao Street.
Sakura Tavern second floor.
The two of them went out together in the morning, and when they returned, only Korma was left. The new great wizard walked through the courtyard with cherry blossoms in full bloom, climbed the narrow and steep stairs, and opened the creaking door.
There was no pause at all.
She was tired, inside and out, but now was not the time to be sentimental.
She also did not look for a monastery to stabilize her realm, as Huang Huali ordered.
She has more important things to do.
In the lobby on the second floor of the Sakura Tavern, there are more than a dozen members of the 'Gini Cabin' club scattered here and there - these are all people with low qualifications and no hope of entering First University, and can only work in private places like the 'Gini Cabin'.
Young jugglers who learn a little bit about magic in the club.
The entrance of the witch attracted the attention of the young magicians. Not only because she was the owner of Gini's House, but also because the witch's makeup today was very different from usual. Her long silver hair replaced her usual long brown and black hair.
Her hair, the mysterious symbol in the center of her forehead, and her slightly hazy figure all attracted the attention of these magicians.
However, due to the majesty of the witches in the past, the young magicians only dared to sit in their seats and wait for the teaching to begin. No one dared to risk offending the owner of the Gini Hut and make any frivolous behavior.
Weekends in Colma are usually the happiest time for these young magicians. This means that the owner of the club has time to patiently teach them some complex magic skills. For these young people whose future is destined to be dark, even if
Learning the combination or treatment of one more herbal medicines is also a huge gain.
Behind the bar on one side of the hall, a blue-gray flower pot was placed on the table. A witch in gray robes was holding a glass and carefully watering the flower pot.
In the flowerpot, several morning glory stretched their necks feebly, and a hoarse song came from the flowers:
“…I look back frequently because of uneasiness,
ignorant demands,
Ashamed to ask for help,
Tirelessly crossing over,
Every hill…”
Kolma was in a trance while listening to the song. The witch watering the flowers said hello to her several times, but she didn't hear her.
"President."
"Store manager!"
"Sister Colma?!"
"What?" The witch finally came back to her senses and looked at the gray-robed witch who raised the wine glass, as if waking up from a dream: "Is everyone here?"
"I just said it once," the gray-robed witch was a little angry and put down the wine glass in her hand: "The Avery brothers and sisters have to help the family pack the newly picked wormwood. During the Silent Wave some time ago, their father was injured.
The family has had no income for a long time... Enoch followed his uncle into the Silent Forest and has not come back yet... Cathy's mother helped her find a wandering wizard husband and prepared to hold a wedding. Marcy and Laurie went to help...
…”
The gray-robed witch flipped through the roster in her hand and rambled on about the names of the club's absentees and their respective reasons.
Colma listened carefully.
But unknowingly, I was once again attracted by the singing from the morning glory.
"...
over the hills,
Although my head is gray,
chatter,
The sorrow I give you when the time comes,
I haven’t yet seen immortality as I wish,
Just lose yourself first
…”
Have I seen immortality? Have I lost myself? The witch lowered her eyelids and asked herself. The originally hazy figure became more and more undulating, and the invisible pressure emitted instantly made the entire hall fall into silence.
Even the morning glory shrank its neck and closed its mouth.
Korma came to her senses again.
The gray-robed witch grabbed the wine glass and looked at her with a pale face.
"...I'm sorry." The owner of Gini's Hut said softly: "I did some experiments before, and I'm still not used to the current situation...What did you just say?"
