◎Do you also think that I am not as good-looking as those water elves? ◎
Dill opened her eyes while half asleep. In a trance, she seemed to see Amber standing beside the bed. The light of the full moon poured into her blond hair, making it shine like liquid gold, but half of the face of the owner of the hair was immersed in the solemn light. in the dark.
It seemed that Amber would become mysterious every time it was close to the full moon. Dill wanted to ask her what was wrong, but Amber turned sideways and sat on the edge of the bed without speaking. The darkness cast a veil of mystery over her.
Dill.
She whispered softly
When Dill opened her eyes and tried to see the expression on her face clearly, she woke up.
[Wake up. ]
[Wake up quickly and play with us. ]
[I really like your scent. ]
[Can I kiss you on the cheek? ]
[Stay away from her, you snot-nosed water elves! ]Yuegui's angry voice sounded in her ears.
When I opened my eyes, the big, round moon fell into my eyes like a big teardrop. Dill had an idea and suddenly lost all sleepiness. She looked around and quickly recalled where she was now.
The big white goose was buried in his arms and slept peacefully, while Dill raised his head.
The brilliance of the moon sprinkled a lot of silver coins on the lake, and the whole area was full of sparkling light. Several lake elves with dragonfly wings flapped the clear water and played happily around her.
Elder's black horse was resting by the lake. Its pure black mane was as shiny as satin. Days and nights of galloping seemed not to have tired it at all. Dill could still hear its whispers while dreaming, even in the dark. In the dream, it was still running on the grassland; it was a horse without any worries.
Yes, they passed through a large area of flat land and had a smooth journey.
Dill didn't know where she was, but she knew her destination: the Temple of the Goddess, which was far south of the Cape of South Lookout than Baifuleting. Before that, she had to cross half of the Vitokvano continent from west to east, and what connected the east and west was the Zhongting Plain irrigated by the Junli River. The river passed through the vast plain from the snow-covered canyon in the northwest, and finally flowed into the southeast. Wine Bay, so you can't go wrong by following the river.
For example, now, she could barely see the towering ridge forests unique to the north, which meant that she was indeed heading south.
Dill used branches to draw a path on the ground, and suddenly a splash of water splashed over. It was an elf with wings as bright as a red dragonfly playing around. It smiled even more happily when it saw the girl shaking off the dew on her head. The light laughter is like bells in the wind, sweet and annoying.
[It's almost the full moon. Your magic power is getting stronger and stronger, and it's easy to attract annoying people. ]Yuegui gritted her teeth.
When Dill was mentioned by it, he was reminded of his previous dream.
Every full moon night, all the big witches in Miller Valley would disappear. Christina believed that they were enjoying the legendary divine banquet with the little witches on their backs. Once, she called Dill, Grace, and Helena. People secretly formed a team to track the big witch.
Of course, they found nothing, and Bertha chased half the village with a silver bow.
You are not ready yet. Amber flicked the girl's nose hard.
What are you ready for?
Dill subconsciously pulled up her arm, trying to find the rose tattoo. To her surprise, there was nothing on her bare arm, only a small crescent formed by the old scar.
She thought of the sea of roses surrounding Mucha, and an inexplicable uneasiness suddenly surged in her heart.
The girl raised her head and looked at the moon hanging alone in the night sky. It was just a shallow crescent moon when she left Miller Valley. At that time, she was like walking on a steel string, and she was afraid of catastrophe at any time.
Today's moon is almost like a mature pearl, wrapped in the velvet black night, emitting a soft and round light, but Dill knows that its light is not full enough, like a mirror with missing edges.
It's not yet time.
The moon goddess is also the goddess of magic. A real full moon night is of great significance to every witch. There are also monsters, and wolves will also transform during the full moon. It will only become more difficult to find the real werewolf in the future.
Dill couldn't help but think of Jonestown. The vivid and exciting memories seemed like they happened just yesterday, the townspeople with human faces and animal hearts, the wolf seeking strength, and...the black wolf who was good at disguise.
She shook her head, unwilling to think deeply.
The sounds of the elves playing around became more and more noisy, as annoying as the mosquitoes flying around the head. Some of them even pulled the girl's long hair to play with it.
[I can not stand it any more! Dill, give me a hand, I'm going to teach those guys a lesson! ]
"Don't you need a full moon to reveal yourself?"
[Your strength is enough! ]
Under the guidance of Laurel, Dill waved away the crazy elves and took out a glass bottle sealed with cowhide from the cupboard, which was filled with white flowers of elderberries. When she opened it, the sweetness that poured out was like Long-vinified grapes. She didn't dare to be greedy, so she quickly poured a full amount of full moon condensation into a silver cup, and then placed the glass bottle on the grass, facing the moonlight.
Dill was worried just now, but now she is full of expectations.
The liquid in the glass bottle was gleaming, like fetal water brewing life. Before she could see clearly, she saw two of the dry petals becoming softer and softer, and finally stretched out like wings of life. There is a pair of exquisite and beautiful crescent patterns on it.
Before the girl had time to see clearly, the bottle began to crack one by one, as if some life was impatient and eager to break out of the shell.
With a click, the bottle instantly broke into pieces of crystal.
Dill looked nervously and expectantly─
Then, she saw a huge flutter moth rushing towards the group of watery dragonflies, hitting them hard with its huge wings.
Dill:...
[I have tolerated you for a long time! ! ! You think your wings are pretty, don't you? ! Yes or no? ! ]
Laurel did not let go of any one, especially the one that had just poured water on her witch. The big white moth directly used its wings to slap the other one into the water, and Dill could still hear a splash.
The tragedy of the scene made Dill try to control the thoughts in her mind: she can't dislike it, she can't dislike it, she can't dislike it!
After Yue Gui flew back with satisfaction, she saw her master, who was so well-behaved, sitting quietly where he was.
Dill secretly looked at it from the corner of her eyes. In fact, the appearance of the laurel condensation was not like that of an ordinary moth; the pair of pure white wings had crescent-like eyes, and the two slender tails hung down, like white silk woven with silk. Kite. When the wings flutter with glittering scales, the tail wings at both ends are like dancing ribbons, which is extremely beautiful.
Hidden under the huge wings is a little man with black hair and white skin. There are feather-like antennae on his forehead, and his skin is as moist as pearly white.
[Do you also think that I am not as good-looking as those water elves? ]Yuegui's mind is so sensitive that a pair of fluttering wings suddenly droop down.
In fact, the elf looks like a miniature version of dill, with long black hair draped over pure white thin wings. As the wings flap gently, the crystal scale powder embellishes its skin like fine snow. It is simply a statue. A small jade carving that can be held in your hand.
Dill stared at this miniature version of herself and praised sincerely: "I'm glad that my elf is not like those mosquitoes. You are so beautiful."
Laurel immediately flew around her happily, and Dill clapped her hands to cheer her up. Turnip woke up midway and saw big moths flying around, just like seeing flying breakfast. The big white goose also flapped its wings excitedly and opened its mouth to take a bite, which made Yue Gui half-dead with anger.
Dill was sandwiched between a goose and another moth, and was flapping by two pairs of wings. She was destined not to sleep that night.
In addition to the big white goose and black horse, plus a big fluttering moth, the journey seemed more lively.
The [divine nature] that once had almost no effect now affects Dill all the time. Being able to understand animals talking is a novel thing for Dill, at least it is much better than the endless whispers of doom.
On the vast grassland, we often encountered many herders. Whatever happened to their animals, Dill had a way to cure them. Except for the noisy goats, they were full of nonsense about their owners, which made Dill raise her head after listening to the dirty words for a long time. I don't know how to fool the shepherd who looks concerned and expectant.
The little witch earned a lot of money from this along the way, and at the same time, she was able to roughly piece together her location from the herdsmen.
Dill has walked out of the canyon pass along the river. The Green Valley River has nurtured a large area of fertile grassland. This is also one of the upper reaches of the Junli River. She remembers Perun saying that most of the green fairies who believe in the three goddesses of nature live in Junli River. Downriver, there are countless swamps and forests that can hide the whereabouts of witches.
For the time being, Dill comforted herself that she didn't need to be afraid of Oya and others, not to mention that she also had the divine buff of invalidating magic.
But she also learned something interesting from the shepherd's mouth; there was a forbidden place called Shadow Hill not far away, where mysterious hermits and some warlocks and pagans who had been exiled by the church lived. It is said that old magic and spells are widely practiced there, and the salty fog and waves are filled with evil spirits. They say that those who enter the forbidden area by mistake will immediately have their shadow taken away, and will never be able to find their way out, becoming a lonely soul floating in Shadow Hill forever.
The most important thing is that there is an evil black witch living in Shadow Hill. It is said that she has lived for hundreds of years, loves to eat children, and has powerful magic power. She can easily command the shadows under her feet to kill people. Even the knights of the church cannot easily Half a step onto Shadow Hill.
The kind-hearted shepherd showed the girl another clear path and told her that she could reach the wealthy and safe Oak Barrel Market there.
The girl smiled to express her gratitude. After the shepherd left, she turned the horse's head in another direction without hesitation.
