Transform into a fairy girl

In the evening, the silvery moonlight shines sporadically on the forest clearing through the dense branches and leaves.

Ji Ran was lying on a branch, with her head on her hands, looking at the portrait hanging on a higher branch.

There are no mirrors in the forest, and the elves can only occasionally see their own reflections on the calm lake. Among the elves, there seems to be a legend that elves cannot see themselves often, otherwise, it will be harmful to them. A curse.

Therefore, even if there is a lake in the forest, the elves rarely go there, let alone squat by the lake to look at their own reflections.

Therefore, elves' understanding of themselves, especially their appearance, remains in the world of self-imagination, and few people can clearly know what they look like.

Ji Ran does not have such a taboo. At least deep in her soul, she still has the memory of her time as a human being. Therefore, she occasionally goes to the lake to look at her reflection, but she only goes there secretly occasionally. If If Grandma Sophia finds out, I'm afraid she will be punished.

Ji Ran has always wanted to have a mirror, but unfortunately, there is no such thing in the Elf Forest.

And now, with that portrait, Ji Ran's wish has come true. The elf girl in the portrait looks exactly like herself. Although there are some deviations in some details, it is still an excellent work despite its flaws. .

"Ai Yi, are you admiring yourself again?" Miliya smiled and jumped onto Ji Ran's branch, lying down next to Ji Ran. The two of them faced each other and looked at the portrait hanging upside down on the high branch.

"Milia, why can't elves look in the mirror? Why can humans look in the mirror, but elves looking in the mirror is considered a curse?" Ji Ran asked Miliya curiously.

"This is because we elves respect nature. God created all things in the world, and elves are also one of all things. As children of God, we should obey God's will. For example, God created little rabbits, and little rabbits are You can eat grass obediently, but you can't eat meat. God created elves, and elves should live in the forest as they should, and should not be coveted by others.

You see, our eyes are all in the front. Under normal circumstances, we cannot see ourselves. This is because God does not want us to know what we look like. Therefore, we cannot violate God’s will and insist on seeing Him. You don't want us to see it. "Milia explained to Ji Ran.

"So that's it, but when humans look in the mirror, they don't see God punishing them." Ji Ran asked, looking at Miliya.

"How come humans are not punished for being greedy and arrogant, so God gave them a short life span as punishment.

The average life span of human beings is less than a hundred years old. I heard that it is only a few dozen years old. "Milia said to Ji Ran.

When Ji Ran heard this, she felt that it made sense. Elves could easily live hundreds or even thousands of years, but human life span was only a few decades. Perhaps this was really God's punishment for humans.

It was late at night, and Miliya was gradually falling asleep, but Ji Ran had no intention of sleeping at all. She still opened her beautiful eyes, looking at the night sky as big as a pinhole through the lush branches and leaves.

"Aiyi, why aren't you sleeping yet?" Miliya looked at Luo Tianyi strangely and asked.

"I don't want to sleep, I'm afraid I'll have those nightmares again." Ji Ran shook her head and said.

 

"Oh, how pitiful. Grandma Sophia said that your nightmares may follow you for the rest of your life. If possible, I would like to help you share some of your worries." Miliya looked at Ji Ran sympathetically and said.

"Thank you Miliya, I am very satisfied to have such a good friend like you." Ji Ran said with a smile.

"How about I stay up late with you." Miliya said, came to Ji Ran and lay down next to Ji Ran.

The trees in the Elf Forest are very thick, and the trunk of the tree where Ji Ran is sitting is also very thick. Even if Ji Ran and Miliya lie down side by side, it will not be crowded.

"Milia, go to sleep, why stay up late with me?" Ji Ran said embarrassedly.

"Haha, it's okay. Anyway, we can live for a long time, even if we don't sleep for a year, we will be fine." Miliya said with a smile.

"But, you have to learn magic tomorrow," Ji Ran reminded kindly.

"It doesn't matter. The Magic Department has classes every week. You can study at any time. Grandma Sophia doesn't rush us, so it's okay." Miliya smiled sweetly and looked at the beautiful night sky with Ji Ran.

After a sleepless night, the sky gradually became brighter, but Ji Ran and Miliya felt sleepy.

Ji Ran yawned lazily and fell asleep in the morning breeze.

In the dream, Ji Ran came to a dark cabin, a remote cabin on the outskirts of the city.

It is only about ten square meters. The cabin is very dark and humid. There is a wooden bed on the east side of the cabin. It is more like a bed board than a bed. There are a few bricks underneath the bed board, which is barely enough for one person to sleep on. .

To the south of the small wooden bed is a dilapidated desk. On the desk is an old computer. Next to the computer are some books and a thick dictionary.

The dictionary was found at a second-hand book market. Although it was worn out, it was considered a genuine book.

There is a thin gray kitten in the corner of the hut. It is not raised by the owner, but a little wild cat. Maybe it cannot find food. It meows outside every night. The owner kindly uses the leftover food. Over time, the little wild cat seemed to get used to this kind of life, and came here to spend the night every night.

It was late at night, and the computer screen was still flashing with fluorescent lights, but in front of the computer desk, a girl who looked exactly like me was working hard to code. Every detail of her looked like me, and with her slender fingers, she quickly Typing on the keyboard, lines of black words appeared on the white screen.

The girl's thinking was very quick, and the lines of black words seemed to be printed out. In a short time, a paragraph of several hundred words was coded.

As time passed, the night outside became darker and darker. There were no lights in the hut, only a small area in front of the computer screen with some faint light. The fluorescent light made the girl's delicate face pale.

Gradually, the clock approached 0:[-] in the morning, and the girl finally finished coding the last chapter. After checking it carefully, she uploaded it to the Internet.

It was late at night, and the girl was a little hungry. Looking around the room, there wasn't much to eat. The only thing she had was a cold steamed bun, which was left over from the morning.

The girl picked up the steamed bun and took a bite. It was very dry and had a slight sour taste. However, after chewing for a long time, the sour taste slowly became sweet again.
