Chapter 349 Holiday in the Forest
After the game, the forces behind the Edes Academy will naturally handle how to deal with the huge impact brought by this victory. Tilan doesn't need to worry about it. Her mission has been completed, and then there will be a half-month New Year's Eve holiday.
"Will Tilan come to my house to stay for a while?" Knowing that the girl will be more free during this period, Dolores generously invited her. She currently has a house and several holiday villas.
"This." Tilan originally wanted to subconsciously refuse, probably because of the habit she developed when she was a child, not to bother others.
But thinking about it a little bit, it's not the past now, and Dolores really wants me to accompany her, and it won't be a big trouble for others.
"Okay then." She nodded.
"Come today or tomorrow." Seeing Tilan agree, Dolores felt a little happy.
"So urgent, let's do it tomorrow." Tilan blinked and answered with a little mischief, just like playing with familiar friends in elementary school, without paying too much attention to any manners.
"Okay, where do you want to live? You've been to my house on the beach in South District 1. There's also a mansion in the redwood forest in the mountains of South District 4 and a small island on the quicksand sea in South District 2. If you don't like that, there's also a floating boat for traveling. You can enjoy the scenery of various places while sleeping and eating snacks." Dolores counted her assets, which made Tilan sigh more than once that this young lady was really rich.
However, unlike those dandy rich second-generations, this young lady herself is indeed capable. Now she can gradually master all kinds of business of her own company. She can be said to be better than her predecessor, unlike most rich children who only know how to have fun.
"Traveling on a floating boat is too ostentatious. Now is also a sensitive period." Nowadays, the public opinion war between Edes Academy and Saint Ingo Academy is in full swing on the Internet. The two sides have started a debate on each other's philosophy, whether Viara cheated in this competition, the success rate of students, and the school spirit.
"Let's choose the mountains. I haven't lived in the forest yet, and the only time I lived there was an accident." The girl remembered the time when Ran Bei'er invited her. Now she is in hibernation, and it is said that she has sensed some kind of opportunity for advancement.
"Then it's settled. I'll have the shuttle pick you up tomorrow. Remember to prepare your luggage and clothes." Dolores and Tilan agreed.
"No problem."
The next day, Tilan took her suitcase and walked onto the shuttle that landed at Edes Academy. Then the large aircraft took off and brought Dolores and Tilan to a forest mountain in the South Fourth District.
As soon as she got off the aircraft, Tilan smelled the faint scent of pine wood coming towards her. Not far from the landing airport, there was a tall and straight pine forest, very quiet, with only a gravel road passing through it.
"This is a well-protected national park in the Emerald Skirt, and most of the area remains in its original natural state." Dolores came from behind. Today, she rarely wore a bright yellow short-sleeved dress, with a round neck and a white ribbon embellished on the chest.
Walking beside Tilan, the young lady introduced the local situation. This national park covers an area of about 200,000 square kilometers. Although it also receives tourists every year, compared with such a vast area, the number of people is like a drop of water poured into the sea.
"The government will also rent out some mansions in the forest, about once every 20 years, and the money received will be used for the maintenance of the national forest park. My mansion is one of them."
"In fact, it is also very free. You can renovate it according to your own preferences as long as it does not pollute or damage the local environment." Dolores and Tilan walked into the pine forest, surrounded by straight pine trees about 30 meters high.
The pine needles underfoot are a little soft to step on. Tilan can occasionally see pine nuts scattered among the green and yellow pine needles. They are dark brown wood and gather together like a small ball similar to an acorn. It is very light to pick up.
Because the pine trees are tall, the gaps between the trees are also large. There are no weeds and shrubs. It is very refreshing. Although it is midsummer in the southern hemisphere, it is very refreshing here.
The two walked along the gravel path. Halfway through, a chirping sound came from Tilan's suitcase, which attracted Dolores to turn her head curiously, with an expression that said you have to explain it well.
"There are a few little stupid birds in it." Seeing Dolores's attitude, Tilan knew that she couldn't hide it, so she put down the suitcase and opened it, revealing five little guys in a small cage.
After seeing Tilan, the five little cottonwood birds made cheerful calls, just like seeing their mother, but for them, Tilan was indeed the one who raised them and played a similar role.
"So cute, can I touch it?" Dolores looked at the five fluffy little ones and wanted to reach out.
"Okay." Tilan said as she opened the cage, and then the five guys ran out at once, chirping around Tilan's palm, as if
they were checking if there was any food in her palm. "Wait a minute, don't be impatient." Tilan continued to take out a bag of special broken rice, and then poured a little on the clean stone slab beside her, letting the little guys peck at it.
"Dolores can feed it with this, they like it very much." The girl handed the bag to her friend.
Then she sat aside and watched Dolores carefully touch the heads of several small light cotton birds with her fingers, and then spread out the food in her palm. When being pecked, she wanted to take it back because she was a little ticklish.
Looking at this scene, Tilan wanted to laugh a little, and finally saw the nervous side of this young lady who was not good at it.
"Let me teach you, it should be like this..." Tilan said as she held up a light cotton bird and placed it in Dolores' palm, and then helped her to soothe the little guy, and slowly let the light cotton bird get familiar with Dolores.
"It's still downy now, and it's gray. After a while, it will probably be replaced with beautiful white feathers. A mature cotton-bill has a beautiful body, a bit like a swan, but it's more capable, and its neck is not that long, so it has a certain fighting ability."
After feeding the cotton-bill, the two continued to move forward, but this time Dolores led the way in front, and Tilan followed behind to prevent any bird from falling behind.
Half an hour later, the two finally came to a mansion in the woods. From its appearance, it should be built with native pine wood. It has not been too delicately decorated, but has a rough and original beauty.
After opening the door, Tilan found that the space inside was more spacious than she had imagined. In the middle of the hall was a long horizontal wooden table that could seat more than ten people to dine together. There was also a fire made of stones in the corner of the house, which could be used for barbecue and boiling water. Under the hanging beams on the roof were air-dried peppers and other unknown large leaves, which seemed to be some kind of spices, exuding fragrance.
After passing through the hall, there is a cozy bedroom at the back. Although the overall style is more primitive, the quilt on the bed is particularly clean and white, with a faint smell of sunshine.
After putting down the luggage, the two of them got familiar with the inside and outside of the mansion. Although Dolores rented and bought it two years ago, she rarely came here and was not familiar with it.
"There is also a pond behind the house. The water is clear and can be used for bathing and swimming in summer. There is also a small path in the back mountain. According to the manual, it leads to the observation platform on the top of the mountain."
"There is an emergency shelter under the bed, which contains food, clean water and rescue devices. The partition on the fireplace is pulled down to an old-fashioned display screen that can be used for movies, TV and opera." Flipping through the booklet in her hand, the girl read one by one.
"Although there is sufficient food reserve, since you are here, you should try to cook by yourself."
"Will Dolores prepare food?" The girl suddenly remembered this question.
"No, this time I will rely on Tilan to support me." Dolores sat opposite the girl, folded her hands, supported her chin, and tilted her head to look at the serious Tilan.
"Hey?"
Tilan thought Dolores would say she was willing to learn, or just say she didn't know how to learn, but the last sentence made Tilan stumped, not knowing how to answer.
"It's not impossible, but Dolores has to eat whatever I cook, and she can't be picky." She raised her finger and told the wealthy lady whose image had collapsed in front of her seriously.
Looking at the lively and serious look of the girl in front of her, Dolores couldn't help but smile and nod, and agreed completely.
