Miss Witch doesn't want to be a diva
Chapter 514: The distant wind blows across the lake
In the quiet and deserted classroom, the sound of the piano is crisp and clear.
Even if you haven't seen it yet, the sound is like a spirit passing through the forest, which has already explained a hazy and beautiful figure to people. She should have slender and light fingers and a flawless heart that pursues tranquility.
There are only a few melody sections in the music, which turn and meander again and again, and seem to spread long thoughts, making people gradually calm down and think of many past events and forgotten scenes.
Over and over again, this simple melody is played countless times, and it is still not boring.
In this way, until a long time later, a gust of wind blew through the courtyard outside the classroom, and this distant tranquility gradually ended, like a fallen leaf falling slowly.
Release the piano keys, the girl sitting in front of the piano stood up, she slowly walked to the window, looked at the bright world outside, stretched out her fingers, and felt the touch of the breeze passing through her fingertips.
I don't know how to describe the feeling in my heart. Maybe it's a bit lonely, but not very sad, just a little bit of thinking about things a long time ago.
Leaning on the windowsill, the girl looked at the outside world. In the quiet afternoon under the sun, there were some birds singing, faint voices coming from afar, and the ticking sound of the pendulum on the school clock tower.
Suddenly, there was a faint sense of peace and happiness, slowly flowing in the air.
Perhaps many times I have overlooked that this kind of life is what I once longed for, but it is too ordinary, just like glass under the sun, which makes people invisible.
However, as long as it is slightly rotated, the glass can refract the sunlight into colorful arcs.
Thinking of this, the girl showed a rare smile.
There is no trace of reluctance and deliberateness, pure inner relaxation, like the golden silk thread in the memory of time, when it flutters and shines in the sun, it will be amazing.
…
During the rare two-day vacation during the special training, Tilan invited several familiar friends to go fishing by the small lake behind the school.
Although it was not a very remarkable party, Tilan's move still surprised the people around her, as if this was the first time she took the initiative to invite others after knowing her for so long.
If it was Orlesi or Shui Yanqing who organized the party, there would be no such feeling at all, because everyone was used to it.
"By the way, is Tilan good at fishing?"
Orlesi, Tilan, Shui Yanqing, Blanche, Odney, and Pulin, six people walked together on the path in the woods, and some of them were holding buckets and fishing rods in their hands, which was quite fresh and curious.
"A little bit. When I was in high school, the most leisurely time was sitting by the lake in the afternoon." Tilan talked about her time at Iris Academy.
Maybe in the eyes of outsiders, her identity should be mainly based on Edes Academy, but she never felt that Iris Academy was a level lower. It was precisely because of the leisure and relaxation days at Iris Academy that she was able to sort out many of her emotions and relieve the pressure accumulated at Edes Academy.
"When fishing, pack the bait and put the fishing rod beside you, then you can lean against the tree to enjoy the sunshine and breeze, take a nap and read your favorite storybook."
Speaking of this, Tilan thought of the little white ducks that surrounded her in the past, as well as the lazy daylight snake. The big spider liked to be active when she was fishing and taking a nap, crawling around on the tree.
Now the little ducks have grown into big white ducks. The daylight snake has been sleeping at home recently, as if preparing for the next advancement. As for the big spider, it is running excitedly in front of the forest, but it hides its body and not many people can find it.
"It seems that Tilan really likes that kind of leisurely and secluded life." Odney came over and asked Tilan to stand with her, then picked up the personal terminal to take a photo.
The girl with long black hair looked up, and her silver-haired companion smiled and grinned, revealing a small dimple. The two had black and white hair, which set off each other. The sun fell in the woods, and the companions beside them smiled brightly. A look back at time was frozen at this moment.
After that, the group continued to move forward along the trail in the forest. Pulin walked briskly in front, jumping up from time to time, stepping on the stones on the roadside, and occasionally jumping onto the horizontal branches, jumping lightly all the way to the top of the tree, and then turning over in the air and landing smoothly.
Blanche was wearing a beige spruce and plaid long skirt today. There was also picnic food in the basket beside her. The style of her clothes was very pastoral. Occasionally, she asked Shui Yanqing to take pictures for her, and she laughed happily.
Shui Yanqing, who was standing next to her, was wearing a dress with a light yellow base. The laces and corners of the dress were decorated with a little light blue, which was similar to her hair color, with a sense of different shades. Although she didn't talk much today, she was in a good mood and not as depressed as usual.
As for Orles, she was walking behind with her skirt lifted. The snow-bottomed silver silk dress she wore was just right for attending a banquet, but it was not so convenient for walking in the woods.
"I wanted to, but I couldn't help wearing this dress when I saw it in the closet this morning." This is how she explained it to everyone. In fact, she regretted it a little, but she was still stubborn.
So everyone smiled and comforted her, and then they set off together.
After crossing several miles of forest mountain roads, the six people finally arrived at today's destination, a lake with azure blue water. It is located in the eastern corner of the school. Usually, not many people come here. It is separated from the main campus by a mountain. Further east, it is blocked by another mountain. It is very quiet. The wind blows from south to north, which is particularly refreshing.
"This is it." Tilan looked around and then walked towards a shady area by the lake.
"Finally, I can rest." Orles quickened her pace to catch up. Now she also let go of her hands, letting her skirt fall and brushing the dry leaves on the ground.
Pulin came to the lake, picked up a small stone, and threw it spirally at the water surface, watching it jump up a few splashes on the water surface and then fall down.
"I saw my brother play this before." Blanche on the side remembered something and also picked up a stone, but unfortunately, because the angle was wrong, it sank to the bottom of the water after a few jumps.
Seeing this scene, the people on the side covered their mouths and laughed, so several people discussed this ancient and novel little game.
"If I use supernatural powers, I can make the stone float on the water for a day, but that would be too boring."
"The most interesting thing is to find a suitable stone at random, and then look forward to it and see how many times it can fly."
"If you use your ability to make it float all the time, it will lose the expectation and unknown."
"Yanqing, come and play too, you can't use your ability~"
"Wow, Yanqing flew 9 times, one more than Pulin."
"That's because I didn't take it seriously."
"Humph, Sister Pulin is always so strong."
"How did I become a sister?"
Pulin, who is not tall, stood on the stone and argued with Blanche beside her, thinking that she should be younger.
Tilan picked up a stone, moved it to the lake, and then cleaned it up, using it as a seat for later. Audney on the side was looking through the newly bought fishing rod. She had seen Feng Jianxue fishing, but she had never tried it herself. After all, after becoming a singer, she had to take care of her idol career and didn't have so much free time.
"It would be nice to have a small table, so I can put my favorite teapot on it." Orles looked at the surrounding environment and nodded.
"The beautiful vines and morning glories on the teapot are the shapes fired together with the body of the teapot, and the shape of the teacup is also the shape of the blooming bell flower."
"If we add a table, we must match it with chairs, so that it doesn't look like fishing, but more like a tea party." Tilan waved her hand, indicating that the situation would be the same as usual.
"It seems so." Orles thought about it and no longer insisted, but tried to bait the fishhook like Odney beside her, and then started fishing.
"Suddenly I thought of a picture."
The girl looked at Orles' slightly gorgeous dress.
"Orles sat on this stone, yes, with her legs tilted to the side, her hands on her skirt, and then looked at the lake, with a slightly more distant look."
After that, Tilan and Odney took photos of Orles, choosing several angles during the period, and finally found the right position.
In the picture, a silver-haired elf in a snow-covered silver silk dress sits on a simple stone. Not far behind her is a green and red forest. The thick fallen leaves on the ground tilt down from one side of the picture. In the direction of the elf girl's sight, there is a blue and quiet lake. The color of the part near the shore is slightly darker, while in the distance of the corner, it is sparkling and reflects some sunlight.
The sunlight on the left side of the picture, the rippling transparent lake water and the natural breath, but cool and lush forest on the right side form a sharp contrast. The only girl sitting on the stone by the lake is wearing a very exquisite dress that seems to be out of tune with the environment, but the white stone with mottled colors under her body and the dead leaves stained with hooks at the bottom of the skirt give the elf girl a sense of reality, as if the ice crystals from the sky have fallen into the world, accompanied by dead leaves and dust, which is beautiful and brings a more real impact, unlike those overly gorgeous paintings, which are beautiful but empty.
"Wow, Tilan's photo is so good, it can even be used as a mural." Odney was surprised after watching it.
"What does it look like?" Hearing Odney's surprise and admiration, Orles couldn't help but trot over with her skirt lifted up, and came to Tilan to take a closer look. The three of them put their heads together and talked about the details of each part of the picture from time to time.
"Can you give it to me as a gift, Tilan~" Orles held the girl's wrist and asked for it coquettishly. She was getting more and more proficient in this trick.
"Of course, it was originally taken of you." Tilan agreed with a smile.
After that, the three of them set up the fishing rods, and Blanche and Pulin also came over.
Although there were six people out to play together, they didn't bring too many fishing rods, only four. After setting them up, everyone started their own actions again.
Pulin and Blanche found stones and prepared to build a small fire. Odney walked through the forest and easily found dead branches and fallen leaves that could make a fire. Under her control, these dry dead branches and fallen leaves were like small animals, following her with the air flow.
On the other side, Orles sang softly, and some tiny snow particles and frost emerged from the lake, and then were pulled by the water, gathered around her, turned into tiny water droplets, and then spiraled around to become a flowing water ball.
The water ball under the sun expanded again during the rotation, forming a large convex lens covering the sky, gathering light into the stone pestle and focusing on the dead leaves.
Curls of green smoke emerged, and as the flames emerged, the bonfire was lit.
"Now we can heat things up." Blanche came over and put down the basket in her hand. There was a small grill and other tools in it.
"If we catch a fish later, we can grill it and eat it." Tilan remembered something.
"Do you really want to eat it? I thought Tilan was just fishing for fun and then put it back." Orles tilted her head when she heard it.
"I've seen a lot of live fish, and they are all fishy." She thought it might not taste good.
"No, today Orles must eat the fish made by Tilan." Shui Yanqing, who was standing by, found a suitable opportunity to tease.
"If you don't eat it, you don't like Tilan."
"Oh, okay, I'll eat it." Orles sat down and watched the bonfire slowly burning.
Maintaining the bonfire was mainly done by Pulin and Tilan. Compared with the other singers who were not interested in worldly things, the two from the Four Leaf Crystal had a lot of experience.
"Don't put too much firewood too densely. When building a bonfire, you need to combine thick and thin. If it's all small branches, it will be gone in a while. You need to get a few big pieces of firewood to hold the fire. In addition, the middle should be 'hollow', which means to ensure that the air flows smoothly, so that it will burn fully and there will be no thick smoke." Tilan said the simple and easy-to-understand tips.
"Tilan is really skilled. It seems that she went out for picnics many times before." Odney commented.
"It's a personal hobby, but now that all kinds of utensils are convenient, most people don't need to make fire and burn firewood themselves."
"Would you like to eat some toast first? I brought some here." Blanche took out the bread from the basket and asked everyone.
"With some jam?" Odney thought for a while.
"It should be with some cumin and chili powder." That's what Pulin thought.
"The original flavor is actually not bad." Tilan smiled and interjected.
On the other side, Orles sat on the stone by the lake, curiously watching the buoy on the water surface shaking constantly. She looked at Shui Yanqing beside her and spoke after a while.
"Aren't you going to pull it up now?"
"It's not time yet." Shui Yanqing confidently stroked the long hair on the side of her ear. Although she couldn't see it, she could sense that the fish under the water had not officially bitten the hook and was just testing it.
"So that's it." Orles waited at ease.
Seeing her so obedient, Shui Yanqing was a little uncomfortable. It seemed that since that day, Orles rarely took the initiative to laugh at her, and even the bickering between the two of them was much more restrained.
What a big change, Shui Yanqing thought, but she felt that this was not Orles' style, or she could not change spontaneously.
This ice elf lady had never been wronged since she was a child, and naturally would not change easily because of others, so the changes during this period surprised Shui Yanqing.
Thinking of this, she turned her head and looked at the black-haired girl who was still tinkering with other companions by the campfire.
This child has an indescribable charm. She can actually make so many people surround her. It is not the kind of compulsory and impulsive seduction ability, but a kind of relaxation and comfort that naturally emanates, or peace of mind and tranquility.
Even though they are all singers, they are also slowly attracted without noticing.
It's really scary to think about it, and she obviously realized it, but she didn't hate it. Thinking of this, Shui Yanqing showed an inexplicable smile at the corner of her mouth.
Perhaps, they all care too much about the ability of the singer, and do not realize that in the ancient past when there was no such ability, there were still people who could do similar things. This is probably the charm of personality.
Although it has passed, I still wish everyone a happy Children's Day.
Childhood will fade away, but those beautiful memories will accompany life for a long time, making people miss and reminisce from time to time.
I hope everyone can also find the carefree, simple and pure happiness like childhood~
