Chapter 70 Afternoon by the River
Maple leaf garden, morning.
During the rare rest time, Lorraine Hill was still lying on the bed without getting up in the maple cabin. There seemed to be a special magic power in the white and comfortable quilt, which made the witch not want to get up. Instead, she turned over, pulled the quilt tightly, and continued to sleep.
On the other side of the room, Ye Ling was also sleeping poorly, rubbing against the quilt and breathing softly.
When no one wakes her up, this little dragon lady usually sleeps until noon before waking up.
After a little hesitation in bed, Lorraine Hill decided not to call Eidolon. Everyone wanted to sleep more anyway, so why take it so seriously. While thinking this, she lifted up the slightly itchy hair on the side of her face, and then fell into a comfortable dream again.
Time slowly came to noon, and there was a light chirping of cicadas outside the window. The sound was sometimes long and sometimes short, expressing the joy of summer.
Finally, the sleepy Ye Ling was awakened by the chirping of cicadas. He rubbed his eyes, sat up from the bed, and was in a daze for a while, looking at the unfamiliar maple ceiling and the round and compact furniture on the side. After thinking about it, this is Lorraine Hill's home.
She stretched a lot, then walked out of bed wearing slippers. She looked at Lorraine Hill who was still sleeping on the other bed beside her, and ran over curiously.
This was the first time she saw Lorraine Hill sleeping. She used to sleep in Lorraine's arms.
The sleeping Lorraine Hill rested her head on a fluffy pillow, with a thin quilt covering her body, which roughly outlined the girl's figure. The long and smooth silver hair was scattered on the quilt and pillow, and some fell into the neck, complementing the snow-colored skin. One of the hands poked out of the quilt a little, revealing slender and curved fingers. The nails were light pink and not painted with any color.
Looking at Luo Lan who was not yet awake, Ye Ling bent down and touched her cheek with his fingers, trying to wake her up, but he was reluctant to do so. It's rare to see Luo Lan sleeping in, so forget it.
After hesitating for a few seconds, she simply stood up, quietly opened the door, and walked out of the room.
After arriving outside the hut, the strong sunlight shines on the ground, reflecting a dazzling white light that makes people squint their eyes. Ye Ling covered his forehead with his hands, walked down the wooden steps, and stepped lightly on the white textured stone slabs.
Where can I go to have fun? She was not very familiar with this place.
After scanning the surrounding area, Ye Ling prepared to go to the small river to take a look. He heard from Luo Lan that fishing could be done in that river.
However, after walking a few steps on the path between the stone slabs, she realized something was wrong. After looking at the slippers on her feet and the pajamas on her body, Eidolon decided to change into a set of more convenient clothes first.
After sneaking back into the room again and putting on light shoes, shorts and short sleeves, Eidolon also picked up a wide-brimmed hat he bought in Soland and put it on his head before walking out of the door.

Looking at the sneaky figure below, Dai Ju, squatting in the bird's nest under the eaves, made a questioning cry. It moved its wings, looked at the dark crow beside it who was still sleeping with its eyes closed, and decided to follow him out first.
Dai Ju is a bird that is active during the day, unlike the brother next to it, who is a lone ranger at night.
Standing up on her toes, Dai Ju fluttered her fluffy feathers, cleared her throat, and let out two non-majestic chirps, chirping~
Then he jumped off the wooden bird's nest, spread his wings, let the gentle wind hold them up, and easily kept up with the sneaking dragon lady in front of him.
The Mana here is very rich and comfortable.
Flying in mid-air, Dai Ju felt that she was warmed and comfortable by the sun. There was enough mana in the forest to practice, and it seemed to be a very suitable place to settle down.
But if the owner didn't bring it here, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to discover this place. Dai Ju occasionally turned her head to look at the huge red maple tree not far away.
Although it is a tree, this tree is too strong. If it is an ordinary monster, it will usually take a detour after encountering such a powerful existence. After all, it cannot be defeated.
However, as a companion, it couldn't be happier. Having this big guy guarding the house is really something that makes the bird happy.
Dai Ju's small head was thinking about messy things. Her wings occasionally flapped and flew over the branches in the forest, gliding to keep up with the Eidolon in front of her that was jumping lightly along the path.
Turning the corner covered by layers of leaves, Dai Ju heard the slight sound of running water, and then saw the night spirit disappearing behind a forested hillside.
Deflecting his wings and adjusting the direction of the wind, Dai Ju skillfully avoided the branches of the tree, lowered his height, passed through the area, then raised his feet and landed gently on the branches behind the corner.
In front of you is a quiet river valley. The maple trees on both sides block the blazing sun in the sky, making the place look a little shady. Fallen leaves are scattered on the hillsides and rocks on both sides, and a small river several meters wide flows through the middle.
The river water is very clear, and you can see the numerous warm rocks below. A few black fish sometimes swim in the river water, sometimes still, making it difficult to spot.
As a chrysanthemum bird, it did not eat fish before. Catching fish is still too difficult for a small bird like it. Generally, only large birds like falcons can do it.
However, extraordinary animals are just like extraordinary humans. They can always do things that they couldn't do before. Now it is very easy for them to catch fish.
Standing on the branch of a tree, Dai Ju moved her legs and found a more comfortable spot, then squatted down again and looked at the Eidolon below. It is not hungry yet and does not want to catch fish.
Watching this little dragon girl come and sit down on a stone by the river, she first tested the water temperature with her hands, then took off her shoes, put her feet in, and splashed in the water.
Dai Ju thinks humans are really weird. They can only turn into super powerful fire dragons, but now they are afraid of this small flow of water. At first, she thought that the eidolon would turn into a giant dragon and drink up the river and the fish. Woolen cloth.
Although it looked very small, Dai Ju did not dare to look down upon this dragon lady with two off-white ponytails. She had been grabbed by her feet and wings several times before, and there was something under her little arms that she could not resist and break away from. The power allowed it to truly experience the power of the dragon.
But the big chicken drumsticks she gave me were still delicious, and she was a good person.
Looking at the Eidolon below after playing in the water for a while, he was about to go down to the river to catch fish, but fell. Dai Ju smacked his lips, feeling incredible, and then a little bored, as if he had booked a wonderful blockbuster, and finally I only saw the male and female protagonists living an ordinary life, without the intense sparks expected.
Forget it, let's go look elsewhere. Speaking of which, it suddenly wanted to take a bath.
Thinking of the last time he took a bath, when Lorraine Hill rubbed it and the dark crow in the basin in the Red Column Palace, it felt really strange.
Dai Ju spread her wings and jumped down gently and silently. After gliding for a while, she came to a section of the upper reaches of the river valley where the night spirits could not see her and she would not disturb her when bathing.
After arriving at the river, Dai Ju landed on a stone and looked at the river flowing below. Then he took a few steps again and walked to the pebble shoal to feel the slightly cooler water.
It seemed to be doing well. It took a few steps forward again and half of its body was buried in the water.
Feel the cool river water flowing through the feathers, taking away the heat, and a refreshing awakening comes immediately.
Her wings flapped, her body shook, and all kinds of water splashed. After washing her lower body, Dai Ju turned sideways again and let the water wash her back again. After going back and forth like this, both sides were almost done, and then she stood up in the water again and flapped. Wings fly.
Because the wings were relatively wet, it was not very light to fly, so Dai Ju decided to take a nap on a tree branch to let the feathers dry.
In the summer forest, the chirping of cicadas comes from far away from time to time, and occasionally the wind blows through the forest, causing the green leaves to sway gently.
A tiger with light yellow fur crouched low among the low shrubs, looking through the gaps in the leaves at a bird with bright yellow feathers hundreds of meters away.
This is the first time it has seen such a powerful monster in this forest. Although it looks like just a fat bird, the magic power slowly flowing and overflowing from its body is undeniable, exuding a fiery feeling. .
Where did this guy come from? I have never seen it before. The tiger squatted in the bushes and wondered.
Except for a few swimming fish and insects, there are basically no other animals in this forest. There seems to be something special that blocks the entry of other animals.
And the reason why it was able to find this place is because it met a special human being a long time ago. She helped him pull out the bone spurs. Later, he became familiar with her and was brought here to drink water and play, so that he could come in. .
Although the human girl did not appear again for many years, this became the place where she made her home.
It is rare to have a clean water source, and no other animals or monsters have come to compete for it. It is really a beautiful place. Occasionally it will even swim in the river and catch fish for snacks.
Although its own talent and bloodline are average, it still relied on this place rich in Mana to slowly rise to the Natural Sequence 5 Lin Xi Golden Tiger, and it can be regarded as a small overlord of the surrounding forest.
After observing the fat bird in the grass for a while, the tiger decided to be more cautious. After all, the opponent looked strong and could fly during a fight, so he decided not to provoke it. It's a pity that other monsters are here, and it is a little unhappy thinking that the place where they can play in the water will be shared with other monsters in the future.
Slowly, its broad fleshy palms retreated among the gravel and dead branches, and then trotted outside, preparing to find today's food.
I remember those plum trees in the west are almost ripe. How about going to eat some fruits today? As a specially evolved tiger, it has the ability to become a vegetarian, which is also a valuable skill for its survival.
Zhazha~
Seeing that the Sequence 5 tiger in the distance did not attack the stupid bird, the dark crow hidden among the branches in the forest clicked its tongue and chirped with some disdain.
Let this stupid bird escape again.
But forget it, I'm too lazy to care about it now. According to Lorraine Hill's character, if it ran over and killed the tiger at this time, I'm afraid it would make her unhappy. After all, this owner is very kind-hearted, unless Others get into trouble.
The dark crow spread its wings again, and after watching the play, it flew through the woods in the river valley, kicked Dai Ju who was taking a nap, and kicked it off the branch.
Zhazha~ (Wake up, stupid bird)
Tweet~ (Why are you here)
Dai Ju flipped in the air and flapped her wings, stabilized her body and then flew up. She looked at this good brother curiously. Wasn't it sleeping before?
Zhazha~ (Luolan asked me to call you, the meal is almost ready)
It turned out that after Lorraine Hill woke up, he found that Eidolon and Dai Ju were missing. After asking the Dark Crows, he found out that they had gone out to play. After knowing it, he asked them to come back for dinner.
After hearing that dinner was about to begin, Dai Ju ignored the rude way of waking up the crow, chirped a few times happily, and then flew with the black and blue bird to the valley where the Eidolon was.
At this time, Ye Ling had already taken off his shoes and was standing in the water, watching the black fish not far away attentively, and then suddenly pounced on it, trying to catch it.
Unfortunately, as soon as he caught the black-scaled river fish, the other party struggled fiercely and splashed a lot of water, which made Ye Ling unable to open his eyes for a while. Taking advantage of this short gap, the black fish slipped out of Ye Ling's hands smoothly. Flee back into the river and flee into the distance.
"Don't run, I won't be polite if you run again." Ye Ling shouted angrily, regardless of whether the fish could hear it or not.
She had restrained her strength just now and did not use extraordinary means. If she had used more force, the black fish would have been crushed by her long ago.
Bang bang——
After slapping a few times in the river, Ye Ling had the urge to turn into a dragon and boil the river water dry to bring the black fish to justice. However, thinking that this would destroy this beautiful river valley, she had to give up the idea in frustration. .
"Hmph, you must get a fishing rod and bait next time. I don't believe you won't take the bait." With that, the little dragon girl returned to the shore angrily and prepared to steam dry her wet clothes.
Tweet~
Two birds, one yellow and one black, flew over with flapping wings and landed in front of Ye Ling, making a crisp chirp. Then Dai Ju raised one of its wings and pointed in the direction of Lorraine Hill's cabin, flapping it from time to time.
"Oh, I probably know what you mean." Ye Ling looked at Dai Ju's movements and easily guessed that it was Luo Lan who was calling her.
"Okay, it's really getting late, and I'm a little hungry."
After rubbing his stomach, feeling a little empty, Eidolon spread out a pair of small dragon wings, jumped out of the river valley, and then flew in the direction he came from.
There were people and two birds chirping along the way, which was very lively. When he returned to the Maple Leaf Courtyard, Eidolon saw Lorraine Hill setting up a small pot to cook something in the open space next to the house.
In the tripod room, bright yellow flames burned among the firewood, and the earthenware casserole above made a boiling gurgling sound. Hot white steam came out of the opened lid, and the fragrance of pork ribs and lotus roots wafted out.
Lorraine Hill, who was sitting on a small stool and waiting, had a thick book on his knees in front of him. Taking advantage of the opportunity to cook meat, he wrote down some small things to be done in the past two days with a pen.
Lunch has been prepared, and the Eidolons and others will be back soon.
The wind blew from time to time, and she would lift up her messy hair from time to time, until she heard the sound of chirping running in front of her.
"Loran~ We are back."
