Miss Witch doesn't want to be a diva

Chapter 571 The Poet and the Phoenix

In the last few days of the trip, Tilan met the intelligence officer who contacted her. Of course, the identity of the other person was concealed to avoid the sight of the Inquisition.

"Hello, Miss, I am your scheduled guide."

Under the pavilion where coconut trees and sea breeze coexisted, the girl saw this handsome man wearing a feather hat. His dress was somewhat similar to the bards of the past, and his temperament was leisurely and slightly melancholy.

"It doesn't look like a tour guide." Tilan expressed her feelings straightforwardly.

"That's right, I have only been a tour guide here for three months. I have been traveling throughout the Federation in order to write the stories and poems I like." He took off his hat and saluted the girl with an elegant gesture.

"Every time I go to a place and become familiar with it, I will try to be a tour guide and tell the stories of the place to those who have never been here."

"Until one day, I felt that the story was gradually improving and it was well told, so I wrote it down and went to the next place to travel."

"It's a pretty good life."

The two of them were walking on the beach one behind the other. Not far away was the white coastline that connected to the end of the world. Large waves slowly washed ashore, bringing with them the singing of seagulls and the smell of the distance.

During the walk, the poet and tour guide introduced Tilan to the origin of this coastal beach and the history of this planet.

"A long time ago, the world was a blue sea, and there were all kinds of free creatures wandering in the sea. Some of them were ugly, some were beautiful, some were strong, and some were weak."

"One day, everyone in the sea saw a big fish descending from the distant moon. The big fish was so big that the animals in the sea could not see the end of it."

"Such a big snow-white fish swims in the sea, causing waves and currents to spread, making the creatures in the sea amazed and worshiped."

"As a result, the big fish became the king of the sea world and was followed by the creatures in the sea. They clung to the back and belly of the big fish, making swimming easy and comfortable and avoiding many dangers."

"The big fish swims farther and farther, and there are more and more sea fish behind it. Gradually, these following fish schools are like silvery white waves, crossing the entire sea area."

"There are more and more fish schools. They follow the big fish like a beluga whale endlessly, devouring everything in their path."

"Gradually, those animals that did not follow the big fish could no longer eat, so in order to survive, they followed it."

"But finally one day, the big fish became old, could no longer swim, and died in the sea. The fish that followed the big fish swarmed in dense crowds and were also hungry, so they ate the carcass of the big fish crazily. Because the carcass is big enough, maybe they will never be able to finish it.”

"More and more stagnant fish schools gathered around the corpse. They continued to eat and fight with each other. More and more fish gathered, and more and more fish died, and more fish died. It has become the food that more sea creatures crave.”

"In the end, this place became a graveyard for sea fish, and the accumulation of sea fish carcasses finally formed the first piece of land in the sea."

"At this point, tens of thousands of years have passed, and new sea fish have forgotten everything in the past and set foot on this land. They became the first creatures on the land, slowly multiplied, blossomed and bore fruit, and lived a happy and carefree life. A carefree life.”

"This story is a bit sad. If it were some kind of fairy tale, maybe it should mention something at the end and add some emotion." Tilan responded.

"Yes, but I don't want to use my crude words to add a crude ending to such a story." The poet guide replied.

The two of them had already walked a long distance and slowly arrived at the coast. There was a viewing platform leading to the sea, and many people playing on the beach could be seen in the distance.

Moving forward along the road to the observation deck, the sea breeze gradually becomes stronger, the air becomes more and more humid, and occasionally you can smell a slight salty smell. Some seabirds are hovering, and their feathers are particularly white and dazzling under the sun and sky.

When they reached the end of the viewing platform, the two stopped and stood on the edge of the fence. Here they saw the laughing children playing ball and running on the beach.

"This place is called 'Sunset Beach'. When the sun sets slowly in another hour, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery." The poet tour guide continued to introduce.

"Yes." The girl nodded slightly and stood on the observation deck looking at the scenery.

The wind became quieter, and everything in front of me, whether it was the fine scales on the sea surface, the running figure, the chirping seagulls, or the white stone guardrail, became the best embellishment of the picture.

After a long time, Tilan slowly closed her eyes, just to remember this moment well.

After a few seconds, she opened her eyes again and looked at the poet guide beside her.

‘So, you came to me not just to tell this story. ’ At this time, Tilan directly used the spiritual dialogue ability possessed by the singer.

‘Yes, respected Lord Tilan. ' He nodded slightly and took out the small goose-yellow creation from his arms. After stretching and unfolding, it became a simple lyre. Then he plucked it slightly, and a wonderful feeling sounded in the girl's heart. Although it was not as powerful as the singer, But this is also another kind of mind-talking ability.

'Before I tell you what happened, please allow me to ask you a plain and simple question. ’

‘What do you think of the Federation? ’ His fingers moved, and the tinkling and soothing music spread.

‘A simple noun: a country, a group of interests, or a once-good wish. ’

'Before talking about patriotism, we must first understand what a country is. Unfortunately, the Federation is too big now. It is impossible to describe it in the eyes of different people with just one or two sentences. '

'The country in the eyes of children, the country in the eyes of adults, the country in the eyes of the winners, and the country in the eyes of the losers all look different. '

'In the eyes of some people, it is so beautiful, containing many just and beautiful words, and in the eyes of others, it is so tyrannical and ruthless, the embodiment of terror and coercion. If we ask everyone, we will get thousands of different answers. '

'The birth of love will not be without reason, there must be an initial starting point. '

'If it is the Federation you love, what do you think it looks like? 'The other party closed his eyes and played the lyre, and the music attracted people around him. Some children were curious and hid behind their parents to watch.

The girl watched him play, and some bangs and hair were blown by the wind, swaying beside her sight.

Tilan did not answer immediately, and the poet did not ask further. Only the faint sound of the lyre floated in the wind.

Everything was so quiet, the sunset in the distance slowly fell, just as the poet said before, when the sunset shines on the sea and the beach, it is particularly stunning and beautiful.

It seemed to go back to a long time ago, which reminded Tilan of the afternoon many years ago when her mother took her to see the sea for the first time.

"What kind of person do you want to be in the future, Tilan."

"Kind."

Later, her mother seemed to say a lot to her, but unfortunately, she couldn't remember many of the words afterwards, after all, she was too young at that time.

If she were to answer now, she might have to find a lot of reasons and explanations for this answer to convince others and herself to avoid suspicion from others and herself.

But at that time, she didn't understand such a complicated matter of interest entanglement, she just wanted to answer like this, and said it like this, without any reason or reason.

Why should I be kind? Because it makes me happy, that's all.

Opening her eyes again, her glass-like clear pupils reflected the fiery red sunset in the distance, and the magnificent sunset seemed to be shining in her eyes.

'If it is the federation I love, it should be kind and powerful. 'The girl answered slowly.

'Thank you for your answer, Your Highness Tilan. 'The other party continued to slowly touch the strings of the zither, immersed in the performance.

Time passed by minute by minute, until the sun set into the sea, until the sky gradually dimmed, until the crowd slowly dispersed.

"The end of the journey is here." When night fell, the poet guide took Tilan to sit in a small noodle shop by the beach.

"I'll treat you this time. There are not many listeners like you." The poet guide smiled and greeted the boss and ordered two simple noodles.

Sitting in the noodle shop, with hot red soup, the two finished their noodles, and then the poet guide said goodbye to Tilan.

"This is a collection of short stories in the poetry collection that I collected and recorded. I give it to you as a parting gift." Then he waved and disappeared into the night.

The girl watched him leave, looking at the handwritten poetry collection in her hand. It must be said that in today's printing so developed, it is rare to see people who still write books with handwritten notes.

The book was opened, and there were words and sentences that the tour guide occasionally recorded in his spare time, as well as simple sketches and texts. Among them were flowers and plants, cute animals, interesting little things, etc. seen on the road. It can be seen that this tour guide is not a very good tour guide, but more like a traveling poet.

A week later, Tilan returned to the "Chaoge District" and accepted Feng Jianxue's invitation to take on the role of the dragon witch in this celebration.

"Why did you suddenly change your mind?" Dolores asked curiously.

"Maybe I understand my original intention." Tilan smiled and answered quietly. It must be said that at this time, she seemed to be shrouded in a layer of light, making people feel beautiful and unable to avoid sight.

Dolores didn't know what to ask next, but she knew that at this time, Tilan had a kind of happiness and determination from the heart.

The grand celebration was held in the capital of the planet. This is a large-scale celebration every five years. Not only the people of this star field, but also many tourists from far away will come to watch and participate.

When Tilan first appeared in front of everyone wearing the beautiful white witch costume, with a green ribbon and a blue phoenix pearl hairpin, it must be said that she was breathtakingly beautiful. Her already perfect face and figure, after being carefully dressed up and lightly painted, were even more flawless and moving, especially the touch of red and blue dot on her forehead, which made people unable to look away.

The snow-white long sleeves and the extremely soft fabric fluttered slightly as they moved, like a fish stepping in the water, swaying slightly.

First, there was a huge parade team with tens of thousands of members. In front of them were teams of musicians who used various traditional musical instruments, such as pipa, gong, trumpet, drum, flute, flute, etc. These musicians wore red-bottomed embroidered robes and played all the way. Petals and fireworks fell along the way.

People watching the celebration stood densely and crowdedly on the stands built on both sides of the street. From time to time, there were festively decorated hovercrafts patrolling in the air to maintain law and order.

‘Now we are broadcasting to you from TV channel XV. We are in the most prosperous capital area of ​​Bai Ze Star Region, watching the grand ‘Five Phoenix Celebration’. This is an extremely important traditional celebration in the East, held every five years, and this time it is in Bai Ze Star Region…’

'We can see that the number of spectators gathered at the scene is far beyond imagination. During the celebration, about 50 million tourists came to Bai Ze Star Region, and about 12 million of them arrived at the scene to watch closely. The parade route of the entire celebration is 20 kilometers long. The streets are decorated with fiery red ribbons and phoenix silhouettes. The scene of the audience standing and watching makes the streets lively and boiling, so that from a high altitude, the whole street is like a swimming fiery red dragon! 'The reporter was also infected by the atmosphere of the scene and excitedly introduced the scene at the moment.

With the long whistle sound, the parade team began to set off.

Ten red royal plaques held high led the way in front. These royal plaques were carved with five phoenixes of different shapes. In ancient legends, they were Qingluan, Chifeng, Honghu, Xuanwu, and Yuzhu, in memory of the five special goddesses (witches) who opened up from the wild world.

Ten imperial plaques about 10 meters high followed the team slowly forward, and behind them was a taller and more magnificent phoenix hollow carving, which looked like it was about to fly with its flame-like feathers stretched out one by one, showing its beauty.

This hollow phoenix carving represents the Phoenix Witch who raised and taught the Five Phoenixes, and is also the "Seven Phoenixes Yingtian Zhenyan Mansion Lord" in the ancient records of the East.

Continuing to the back, there are the mountain and sea beasts in ancient mythology. These "beasts" with built-in machinery and glittering scales and outlines are about seven or eight stories high. They followed the team and walked slowly. Their metal bodies and limbs turned from time to time, and through the resonance and vibration of the airflow, they made a roar similar to that of beasts. Some of them were like lions and tigers, covered with cloud-like hair and scales, some were blue all over, with leopard bodies and snake tails, and some were like giant birds, with bright yellow and sharp feathers. Some of them also sprayed flames or water mist into the air, which made many viewers feel fresh and surprised, and extremely happy.

After passing these strange beasts of the mountains and seas, there is a huge dragon boat moving forward on the ground. The dragon boat has many high-rise buildings, and there are accompanying musicians on each floor. On the deck, there are dancers waving long sleeves. They are wearing bright and gilded long skirts, slowly turning with the music, like blooming golden lotuses.

Going further back, there are also retro soldiers standing on the dragon boat. They are wearing copper and wood armor, like pottery figurines. Occasionally, they wave their weapons in unison and roar, which makes people feel refreshed.

Further back, there are occasionally members riding giant dragons flying in the sky. The wide dragon wings fan the fierce wind, making people feel the power of this ancient dragon rider.

After various dragon boats showing ancient culture passed by, the team came to the middle area. One of the dragon boats was particularly tall and eye-catching. Its appearance was golden, and there were golden sails on both sides of the dragon boat. On the dragon boat, there was a magnificent palace. On the high platform surrounded by many accompanying personnel, the mysterious dragon witch knelt in front of a horizontal ancient sword, her face was covered by a veil, and only her combed long hair and figure were visible to everyone.

The team gradually walked along the long street in the midst of lively cheers and music, until they turned around and returned to the central venue of the festival. This square that can accommodate millions of people was already crowded with people. The self-discipline units decorated with ribbons flying in the air were like lanterns floating, recording the scenery below.

In the eyes of everyone's expectation, the whole team separated here, and then the dragon boat in the center slowly stopped. The dragon witch, as the protagonist of this festival, also slowly stood up and gradually took off the veil in front of her, revealing the peerless face that made millions of viewers hold their breath.

Countless cameras recorded this moment, and the atmosphere of the celebration slowly came to the expected part.

The girl in a long dress with snowy sleeves slowly descended from the air with a sword, step by step as if stepping on transparent stone steps, and came to the center of the altar for praying to the sky. Then the simple and unadorned sword was slowly pulled out. This was an unsharpened ritual sword, with mountains, rivers, plants and trees engraved on one side, and flowers, birds, fish and insects engraved on the other side. The hilt was inscribed with ancient blessings.

Then the girl wearing a blue phoenix pearl hairpin danced slowly with the intermittent gentle bell sound. The sword body and sleeves were like swimming fish, dignified and gorgeous, quiet and majestic. In the sky, flying birds circled, layer by layer, forming seven huge rings. As the prayer ceremony progressed, the clouds in the sky slowly changed color, and the breeze blew through the scene with a cool breeze.

Until finally, the faint glow of light sprinkled through the gaps in the clouds, shone on the center of the Temple of Heaven, and fell on the face of the girl, and her clear eyes slowly opened.
