Chapter 19 Prologue
A crystal-like full moon hangs in the clear sky without even a cloud, and the boundless desert is illuminated by the moonlight. The undulating sand dunes seem to emit a soft light, and the monotonous yellow sand looks beautiful at this time. Can enter the picture.The wind still bears the traces left by the intense heat of the day, blowing slightly lazily, and from time to time, fine sand and dust are rolled up, dancing like smoke and then dissipating.
In this place without the structure of inanimate silence, a flower suddenly bloomed in the air at midnight.
This is a flower with a deep blue like the night sky.It does not bloom on vines or branches, but slowly opens its petals as the desert night wind floats in the air.The outer layer of the flower is more than a dozen petals like wings, they use the wind to make the flower float, and the inner layer of closed petals like a cup surrounds the stamen, and also holds a drop of water condensed by the hot wind.This crystal water drop is gently wrapped by the transparent film formed by the flower's secreted liquid, which will become the key factor for the flying flowers to thrive.
The second flower, the third flower...
More and more flying flowers are blooming over the desert, competing to display various bright colors.They dance lightly under the moonlight, and the moonlight reflected by the water droplets in the flower heart is a hundred times more charming than the light of fireflies on the southern grassland.
The flute sounded in the night.
An elf boy in white stood on the sand dune, playing softly.
The elf's long silver hair is fluttering in the wind, holding a fife, and her slightly melancholy crystal-colored eyes change colors under the moonlight, focusing on this unrivaled spectacle.
This land of death has become full of life in an instant: the bright moon, the stars, the boundless vast desert, the dancing flowers, the melodious sound of the flute, the peerless elves... It is hard to tell whether it is heaven or earth.
On the sand dunes not far away sat the elf boy's companions: a thin, lazy-looking human man in his early twenties; The same race is carrying a giant sword differently; a water goblin with fair and transparent skin, light green eyes, long water-colored hair, charming face, and an indescribable charm all over her body.They were all looking at this wonderland intently, listening to the elf boy's flute.
Finally a flower absorbs enough water it needs, the outer petals fall off, hovering in the air like the broken wings of a butterfly, the weathering disappears, and the inner petals take their seeds and fall to the vast yellow sand , waiting for the next rebirth.
The second flower, the third flower...
The falling petals set off a final beautiful and melancholy dance.
The last petal fell from the sky, the young elf stopped playing the flute, and stretched out his hand to catch the petal. The petal stopped on the elf's finger for a moment, but disappeared with the hot wind.The elf boy blinked, a few tears condensed on his eyelashes.
"It's so beautiful!!" Everyone was immersed in the beautiful scenery just now, and it took a long time to speak. The water goblin was the first to run towards the elf boy: "Idiot elf, you know such a beautiful place, so let me praise you once! "The tauren roared at her: "My lord magician is omnipotent!" "What does this have to do with being omnipotent!"
"It's really noisy." The human man shook his head and said to the elf boy, "Qing Shui, how did you find such a good place? I heard that it's difficult to calculate the blooming time of this kind of flower."
The elf boy turned around and smiled softly, "I didn't find it, this is the place where my father and my mother met for the first time..."
"Note: Feihua, a species unique to the Atami Desert, only grows in the harshest environment in the hinterland of the desert.This kind of plant has no roots, stems, leaves and other structures, and lives in units of flowers.The flying flower is very light, and its outer petal-like feathers allow it to float in the air on the hot desert wind.The inner petals of the flying flower are shaped like a thin wine glass. Although this layer of petals is very thin, it can effectively insulate the temperature, so that its stamens are protected from the hot and bitter cold climate of the desert.During the breeding season, flying flowers bloom in the desert sky. They use two relatively long stamens extending outside the "cup mouth" to scatter pollen into the wind. The stamen condenses the hot air on it, and concentrates the tiny water droplets into the "cup". Every time the water droplets form a certain size flying flower, a liquid will be secreted to wrap it to prevent evaporation.The water droplets gathered more and more, and finally Feihua couldn't bear the weight of the water droplets and fell to the ground. At this time, Feihua had completed pollination.Its outer petals quickly fall off and wither, while the inner petals, which can isolate the temperature, close the "cup mouth", protecting the collected water droplets and developing seeds, and are soon buried under the sand dunes by wind and sand.For a long time, these water droplets serve as the water needed for plant growth for the seeds of flying flowers. When the water is absorbed, the new flying flowers have fully developed, just waiting for a specific wind to blow in accordance with the law. On the night of the full moon, they will fly into the sky again and start another cycle of life. The scenery of flying flowers flying on the night of the full moon in the desert is extremely beautiful, but because the hot wind desert environment is harsh and dangerous, and the flying flowers have only bloomed for one night in more than ten years, it is difficult to find the pattern, so very few people can see them. few. But the question is, why do I even have to think about these~~ My brain seems to be a little out of control~~』
