On the hillside in the afternoon, the bright sunshine fell on the grass, and a silver-haired girl stood in it.
The wind blew the hair into a mess, and the unknown little flowers swayed in the wind along with the grass leaves. Occasionally, one or two petals peeled off and were blown towards the distant blue sky by the wind.
Loran Hill looked at the lush and beautiful world before him, loosened his hands slightly, and felt the joy of the wind passing through his fingers.
"What a beautiful place." A familiar and friendly voice came slowly from behind.
"Senior Sister Jinhua." Luo Lanxier turned around, shielded the sunlight with the back of his hand, and looked at the woman with joy.
"How are you doing recently? Are you recovering well?" Jinhua walked closer, touched the girl's head, and then the two of them sat on the hillside.
The wind lifted the hem of her skirt from time to time, and the sun fell on her back, bringing a warm feeling.
"I'm recovering well. I'm not injured, but I'm a little sleepy." Loran Hill replied softly.
That night, she not only used her own innate powers, but also called upon the power of the Witch of Fertility, so she was even more tired. Soon after, she felt very sleepy and later returned to the shrine to rest.
Fortunately, Jinhua arrived with support from the Xiangyu Sect not long after, and everything settled down.
"Then go back to the faction and have a good rest. The cave in the Xiangyu Sect is very suitable for recuperation." Jinhua said.
"Thank you, senior sister." Loran Hill agreed, then thought about it and asked carefully.
"Senior Sister, won't you ask me what happened to me, or what caused it?" She was a little worried about the trouble that would come from her identity being exposed.
"Are you talking about your identity as a witch?" Jinhua lifted the hair by her ear and asked softly.
"Yes."
"Is that so? Actually, for the Xiangyu Sect, witches are not a shocking thing." Jinhua showed a faint smile on her face.
"Because the founder often stayed with the Red Phoenix and the Yellow Bird, the two phoenixes of the Five Virtues, and later in the West, he also met many witches. Therefore, there are many texts related to them left in the sect, so he is not unfamiliar with them."
"Later, because our faction had a lot of interactions with the West, witches from later generations often came here to interact with us, and we met many witches. Unlike other factions, we were not as afraid of witches or had difficulty adapting to them."
"Just like the witch in the red dress you met in Paine Market, Paine is used to it."
So that's how it is. After hearing this, Loran Hill's originally worried heart was temporarily relieved.
"It's just that it's rare to see a new generation witch like you who doesn't stay at home and sleep but runs around everywhere." Jinhua said jokingly.
"Woo..." Loran Hill buried his face in his arms.
"Then what should I do next?" Loran Hill was afraid that his identity would bring other troubles to the faction.
"Well, let me think...it seems not yet."
Then Jinhua looked at Luo Lanxier again. "If you're worried, stay here for a while."
"Now that the demons in the Sunset Mountains have been completely eliminated, and the broken caves beneath the ground have also disappeared, things are relatively stable. Besides, I'm afraid you won't be able to let go so early."
"As for the safety issue, I think we don't have to worry too much with the Nine Phoenix Ghost Chariot here. This is a rare eighth-level existence in the world. I guess for a long time, few people will be able to surpass it." Jinhua looked at the girl beside her, and gently brushed the hair on her back with his fingers.
"Yeah." Loran Hill agreed immediately, and she felt a little sleepy again.
"It's almost time to stay here. You can also go to Zhaoye Palace. It's not far from here, just west of the Sunset Mountains. Senior-Martial Uncle Chiwu is also making friends there. Speaking of which, it was she who introduced you to it."
"Yeah." Loran Hill opened and closed his eyes, feeling that the warm sunlight behind him had a hypnotic effect.
"Okay, just have a good sleep first." Jinhua put the weak girl's head on her knees and let her have a good rest.
Looking at the slightly childish face in her arms, Jinhua's fingers gently stroked her cheek.
"You're still very young..."
The sky is clear for thousands of miles, the wind blows across the fields, creating ripples.
——————————
A few weeks later, Loran Hill woke up from his dream.
When I opened my eyes, the familiar gauze curtain was still above my head, and it was still a sunny afternoon outside.
The sound of cicadas came from afar, their voices unrestrained and high-pitched, singing happily on the branches.
How long have I slept? The girl sat up from the bed, and her silky hair fell from her shoulders.
Hmm, it seems my hair has grown a lot longer. Looking at the silver hair that reached his waist, Loran Hill stood up rustlingly and put on his shoes.
She first looked in the mirror, then took out a set of clothes from the storage space and put them on, combed her hair, and then tied it with the light blue ribbon given by Refilica.
Well, that should be about right. The girl looked at herself in the mirror. She was wearing a simple white dress, with two strands of hair draped in front of her and the rest falling behind her.
When she walked out of the room, the courtyard was still quiet, but a bird perched on the millstone attracted the girl's attention.
This chubby goldcrest seems to be taking a nap, with its eyes closed and its body curled up in a ball, basking in the warm sun, looking very comfortable.
Loran Hill walked over lightly and poked the little guy's belly with his finger. Seeing that it smacked its lips but still didn't wake up, he shook his head in amusement and stopped disturbing the little guy's nap.
Arriving at the forest path behind the shrine, the cheerful chirping of cicadas echoes in the branches, full of the songs of midsummer.
