There are many bards or novelists full of strange imaginations who have described fantasy creatures in their works, including elves, dragons and goblins, and mentioned their racial habits, cultural heritage and living habits. Naturally,
Including the living environment.
Those stories originating from rural anecdotes are basically accompanied by a certain degree of stereotypes. For example, elves must be a noble and solitary race that likes to live in isolation at the source of rivers or downstream of springs; dragons must be a majestic and arrogant race.
, likes to live in cold caves, with their buttocks filled with treasures they plundered; as for goblins, they are basically kind, innocent and close to humans, living in flower bags and tree holes, just like
Like a natural child, he is cared for by life.
Metien and Alice are deeply affected by stereotypes. In this regard, both the mirror star world and the earth world are surprisingly similar.
Although, after personally experiencing the natural magic of the traveler goblin, which "changes strangely at will", the two of them already know that these fantasy creatures are real and not fictions written by poets and novelists, but this stereotype cannot be easily eliminated.
It even deepened.

Therefore, before stepping into the hotel lobby, they all imagined in their minds what it would be like.
Stepping into the fairy hotel is like stepping into a lush garden: the walls are made of green vines, and the roof is woven with pink and yellow flowers. Every leaf is so fresh that it is still stained with the morning dew; it is covered with green grass.
The ground is softer than a finely woven woolen blanket, with all kinds of exotic plants blooming in it, filled with the breath of spring...
The small white round tables were filled with silver plates and three-tiered trays filled with delicious cakes and snacks. Guests of different races sat in twos and threes, chatting in low voices like the wind.
Whispering; the traveler fairy with butterfly wings on its back walks through it, uses magic to direct the teapot floating in the air, and drops steaming coffee and black tea...
The faint sunshine, the intoxicating warmth, the hanging flower boxes above the head, the clusters of moss and hanging ivy on the beams, the solitary mushrooms sprouting from the corner, the rose bushes climbing on the wooden shelves, singing music among the ivy and grass.
Crickets, white pigeons lined up neatly on the windowsill, little rabbits who secretly took away a piece of snack while the guests were not paying attention...
Do these exist?
Metien and Alice naturally hope to exist.
It's a pity that Chacha doesn't exist.
What appeared in front of us was a very ordinary hotel. Everything that could be seen with the naked eye was a wooden structure: wooden floors and ceilings, wooden tables and chairs, wooden stairs, wooden flower stands... even
There is a faint fragrance of sawdust floating in the air, and there is a kind of warmth like sunshine. Whether it is the wood that makes up the floor, ceiling, tables, chairs, or stairs, the texture on it looks old and old, as if it has experienced a long period of time.
Baptism gives them a profound meaning.
There are cross-checked windows on both sides, but they are just decoration. No matter whether the hotel is inside the sycamore tree or underground, it is impossible to receive outside light. Therefore, the light source in the hall mainly comes from small leaf lamps hanging on the wall and
A large chandelier overhead.
This chandelier seems to double as a flowerpot, with lush grass and flowers growing inside, casting a lush shadow. The light it emits is somewhat similar to sunlight, which changes with the time. It happens to be afternoon.
, the time when the light is most brilliant, so it illuminates the entire hall so clearly and brightly that even the tiniest dust particles in the air are visible, like plankton on the seabed, drifting aimlessly.
Carefully cared for potted plants are placed on the windowsills and corners, and they bloom regardless of the season: lilies of the valley, hydrangeas, violets, narcissus, roses, dahlias, calla lilies...and some landscape trees, crabapples, pomegranates, firs.
, Bai Qiufeng, etc. In addition, there are wall shelves at the four corners of the ceiling, with some unknown purple flowers growing on them, hanging down like waterfalls, bathed in bright sunshine, and dotting the surroundings exceptionally beautifully. At first glance, the greenery is not abundant, but it is hidden in every corner. With an occasional glance, you can find beautiful vitality and vitality.
The lobby on the first floor is where guests eat, and may also serve as a tavern, but it is empty at this time, with only platinum light beams floating slantingly. In this scene, it seems that everyone has become transformed in the afternoon sunlight.
Lazy, unwilling to move, just want to stay in the room and sleep.
This atmosphere also infected Merdine and Alice, making them want to yawn, release their uncontrollable sleepiness, and sink themselves into this lazy atmosphere.
It's not quite accurate to say that there's no one around. At least there's a figure behind the counter, but it's obviously not a customer.
It was a young girl with a cold temperament. She was a traveler fairy like Miss Xie Mi who led the way. There were two pairs of translucent butterfly wings on her back. Their appearance was almost the same. The only difference was their hairstyle. This girl had short silver hair.
It is cut off at an angle only to the earlobe, making it look very clean and refreshing. The oblique bangs in front of the forehead cover the left eye. The right eye is calmly and intently watching the wine set in the hand, turning it over lightly and casually, and on the other hand
There are several different kinds of wine on display, ready to use.
She is wearing a bartender's uniform, a white shirt, a black vest, and a neat row of copper buttons. Combined with her cool temperament, clean short hair and neat movements, she actually gives people a handsome and handsome feeling.<
/p>
Ringer was a little surprised.
The girl behind the counter turned out to be a bartender.
This is a new profession that has only emerged in recent years, along with a new tavern culture from the wilderness country of Cadiallo - or bar, tavern. In the past, bartenders only had to hand the guests the drinks they wanted.
The task is completed, and the bartender pays more attention to the matching of different wines to create the desired taste for customers and satisfy their picky taste buds.
The bartenders serve not the sailor peons who like to drink dark beer, nor the aristocrats who only drink wine from the manor's cellar, but rather the middle class who do not want to be confused with the sailor peons and cannot reach the threshold of the aristocracy.
Even in Lunweiting, the capital of the kingdom, this profession is new and rare, and has not yet formed a new trend. As for the goblin bartender...are goblins and bartenders really words that can be linked together?
The most imaginative novelist would probably not dare to write like this, but the facts are right in front of him, and Ringer cannot help but doubt it.
"Second sister!"
As soon as Xie Mi entered the door, he greeted the bartender girl behind the counter: "I'm bringing the guests over!"
The movement of flipping the wine utensils suddenly stopped. The girl who was bartending raised her head. Her eyes stayed on Xie Mi's happy face for a moment. She nodded slightly and then turned to Lin Ge and the others. Just when she was about to speak, she suddenly frowned.
Frowning slightly, he glanced at the corner, and his voice was as cold as rum: "Be quiet, now is not the time to make noise."
Perhaps it was a conditioned reflex, or maybe she had a guilty conscience, Alice subconsciously replied: "I didn't say anything!"
Everyone was silent for a while. After a few breaths, the bartender girl spoke again: "Sorry, I didn't mean you, it's just that these guys seemed a little too excited when they knew that guests were coming."
These guys?
Who is it referring to?
Alice curiously looked at the corner, but found that there were no other living things there except the ivy flower stand and potted plants. She suddenly became a little suspicious. Could this guy be playing an advanced game and hinting that she shouldn't make too much noise? The next second.
The golden retriever maid's eyes slowly opened wide.
Because she saw that a piece of ivy that was originally wrapped around the flower stand suddenly lifted up and shook gently, just like a human waving hand, saying hello to herself?
The leaves above are still trembling!
This seemed to be a signal, suddenly awakening the dormant life of the hotel in the afternoon. Various plants in the pots came to life, shaking their branches, leaves and flowers, greeting these travelers from afar. There was even a Begonia that quietly
He pulled out his roots from the flowerpot and wanted to come over and shake hands with the guests, but the bartender girl behind the counter glared at him, so he retreated obediently and buried the soil with branches himself. He had to be honest and follow
As if nothing happened.
Then there are the various tableware on the wooden tables and chairs: the lid of the ceramic tea cup lifts and falls, shouting kaba kaba and giving warm greetings; the tall teapot tilts on its own without anyone's control, like an elegant gentleman bending down
Salute; the silver spoon and fork stood upright and collided with each other, making a crisp sound, which seemed to be a polite greeting...
In the end, even the hotel itself was happy. The ceiling and floor shook slightly and made a deep and deep sound. It was this old man with ancient history and long age who was welcoming the guests.
It wasn't until the bartender girl reminded them to quiet down again with a cool voice that the noisy and lively movement gradually subsided. However, the scene that just happened has been imprinted in the minds of the travelers, making them finally realize deeply that they are in the right place.
