Chapter 118: Mid-Autumn Festival 3
The two of them went to the school's kitchen, where many elves were busy.
Espurna looked like there were dozens of house-elves.
At this moment, a female house-elf in a skirt walked over, she bowed slightly, and then asked the two, "Hello, is there anything I can help you with?" ”
At this time, Aspuna found that the house-elf was wearing a badge that read: Lan Lan.
Espurna thought it should be her name.
Yi Tianshu smiled and said, "Thank you very much, I need a low long table, as well as lantern paper, bamboo sticks and some candles. ”
The house-elf smiled and said, "Those things are in the corner over there, you can choose your own." He pointed to a corner not far away.
Espurna looked over there, and there were indeed a lot of needed things neatly stacked there. There are even some students who are already picking.
Seeing this, Yi Tianshu immediately ran to the corner.
Espurna looked at the house-elf and asked, "Your name is Lanlan, right?" The elf smiled and bowed to Aspna, "I'm honored that you can call me by my name. Is there anything I can do for that? ”
Espena smiled and said, "I ask, I want four mats. Do you have it here? Lan Lan thought for a while and said, "I'm sorry, because the mats are winter items, they are now sealed in the warehouse." ”
Lan Lan continued: "Then is it okay to have a straw mat? Espurna asked, somewhat confused, "Straw mat??" "It's a carpet-like thing that's woven from grass, and it's very comfortable and cool to use in the summer. How many of you use it? ”
Espurna said, "Four people. Lan Lan nodded and bowed and said, "Please wait a moment, I'll come later." Then Lan Lan snapped her fingers and disappeared.
At this time, Yi Tianshu placed the things he needed neatly on the table, and then used his wand to use the levitation charm to make the table fly slightly. Then the control spell walked towards Aspna, who smiled and said, "Looks like she doesn't need my help." ”
Yi Tianshu controlled the levitation spell while looking at Epna and asked, "Haha, don't you have anything you need?" Can I get it for you? Espena smiled and waved her hand and said, "Lan Lan, you have already helped me get it, and I will be back in a while." ”
"Lan Lan?" Yi Tianshu asked suspiciously.
Espena smiled and said, "It's that house-elf, her name is Lan Lan. Yi Tianshu asked curiously, "How do you know the name of the elf?" Do you know how to read minds? ”
Espurna sneered and said, "Her badge says it." ”
At this time, Lan Lan came back with a straw mat apparition that was twice her height, Lan Lan smiled and bowed and said, "Hello, ma'am, I brought the straw mat." After saying that, he handed the straw mat to Aspna, who took it and said with a smile, "Thank you, Lan Lan." ”
Lan Lan bowed slightly and left.
Yi Tianshu looked at Espurna holding the straw mat and said, "Come, put it on the table." I'll take it. Espena was a little embarrassed and said, "You took a lot, I can do this, I don't need it." ”
I saw Yi Tianshu put down the table without saying a word, took the straw mat that Espena was holding, and then tidied it up and put it on the table. Yi Tianshu waved his wand and used the levitation charm, and the table slowly flew up.
Seeing this, Aspuna also took out her wand and cast a levitation charm on the table. The two looked at each other and smiled without saying much.
By the time the two reached the top floor of the tower, Kimiro and Faisari had already cleaned the tower.
Kimiro and Faisari saw that they were both holding these things, and they took out their wands and used the levitation charm to share the weight.
Yi Tianshu looked around, then pointed to an open place next to him and said, "That's it." So the four of them got up and laid their things away.
Espena looked around, the top floor of the entire beacon tower was more than ten meters wide, and there was a huge beacon gem floating one or two meters above the ground in the middle.
The Beacon Tower is the third tallest tower in the school, sandwiched between the Astrology Tower and the Headmaster's Building. The shape of the tower resembles a castle in wizard chess.
And the beacon tower is located right in the middle of the school.
At this time, the four people spread the straw mat and placed the table in front of the straw mat. It was lined with paper, bamboo sticks, candles and baskets.
Kimiro asked curiously: "Yi Tianshu, what are these paper, bamboo strips and candles for?" ”
Espena smiled and said, "The lantern is the one who weaves it." At this time, Yi Tianshu shook his head and said, "Strictly speaking, it can't be called a lantern?" Espena was stunned for a moment and then asked curiously, "What should it be called?" ”
Yi Tianshu lowered his head and put the paper and bamboo strips in place, and said while weaving: "Actually, it should be called Kong Ming lantern." Although some places are not called that, they are all the same to express thoughts and blessings to distant relatives. When the moon reaches its highest point, we light candles to make a wish and release the Hung Ming lantern. ”
Espena took a few bamboo strips and paper and began to weave them, saying with a smile as she knitted, "I think it doesn't matter what it's called, it's the heart and blessings that matter." ”
At this time, Faisali seemed to be thinking about something, then looked at Aspna, and asked with some hesitation, "Aspna, can you teach me how to weave Kong Ming lanterns?" I also want to write blessings. Espurna stopped what she was doing, then looked at Faisali, tilted her head, and smiled, "Of course." ”
Kimiro looked at Faisali, then at Yi Tianshu and asked, "Can you teach me?" Yi Tianshu. ”
"Of course." Yi Tianshu said while weaving Kong Ming lanterns.
Kimiro asked curiously: "Yi Tianshu?" Why is it called Kong Ming Lantern? ”
Yi Tianshu didn't stop what he was doing, but thought about it and said directly: "I heard my family say that it was invented a long, long time ago by a very famous magician of the Zhuge family. Others say it's because of hats like his hat. Well, you see"
Seeing that Yi Tianshu had already made a Kong Ming lantern, Kimiro looked at it and said with a smile: "It really looks like a hat." ”
At this time, Espurna also made a lamp, but the shape was like a lantern, which was completely different from Yi Tianshu's.
Yi Tianshu asked in confusion: "Aispina? Though it is a lantern? Who taught you? Espurna twisted her head and said angrily, "Hmph! Ancestral craft! As long as you can fly. ”
Yi Tianshu smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "Okay, good, whatever you want." Espurna looked at Yi Tianshu with a proud face when she heard this, and said with a smile: "That's it." Then he looked at Faisari and said, "Come, Faisali, I will teach you on." ”
Faisali smiled and nodded.
Weaving Kong Ming lanterns was actually very simple, and it didn't take long for Faisali and Kimiro to learn it.
Within a while, each of the four of them had compiled seven or eight Kong Ming lanterns.
Yi Tianshu saw that the paper had been used up, and then came to the table, opened the basket, and took out the pastries and meals inside one by one.
Espurna curiously leaned up, only to see that there were many different kinds of pastries in the three-layer basket, including glutinous rice dumplings, glutinous rice balls, sesame balls, peanut halva and other pastries. The basket has a heat preservation charm, so the pastry is kept at the optimal serving temperature.
Then Espena saw a pastry that she had never seen before, and saw a round pastry with many different patterns on it. Ai Aspuna looked at the pastry in Yi Tianshu's hand curiously and asked, "Yi Tianshu, what is this?" ”
"Huh?" Yi Tianshu was a little puzzled, and then saw Espurna looking at the pastry in her hand before she suddenly realized. He smiled and said, "Well, this is a mooncake." ”
Espena nodded in realization, and then asked, "Yi Tianshu?" What time do we release the Kong Ming lantern? ”
Yi Tianshu put the things in order, then looked up at the sky and said, "Nine o'clock, when it comes to nine o'clock, let's put Kong Ming lanterns together, and then eat pastries." ”
"Yay!" When everyone heard it, they said it with great anticipation.
In this way, the four of them sat on straw mats and waited quietly for nine o'clock to come.
