Not a trainer this time

The Padian League acted with great speed.

Xin Li said he was going to build an ancestral hall for King Lei Guan. That morning, a truck drove into the back mountain.

Out of curiosity, Zhi Shu followed Xin Li and ran over to watch.

I saw a few big men in blue work clothes opening the car door, jumping out of the car, and knocking on the top of the mountain.

Soon, a super luxurious ancestral hall was built.

The statue of King Lei Guan is located in the center of the ancestral hall. The statue of King Lei Guan is smiling and looks so loving and kind.

Naoki was stunned.

"Is this, so exaggerated?"

Xin Li on the side smiled slightly, perhaps because the two of them gradually became familiar with each other during the chat, and her tone of voice was not as formal as it was at the beginning.

"Yes ~ This is the speed at which the Padian Alliance works! Every member of the alliance is working hard!"

"And this is just the beginning!" Xin Li's eyes flashed with anticipation: "Next, these uncles will build stairs leading down the mountain and build a large shrine!"

"Huh?" Naoki was dumbfounded: "Isn't this too intrusive?"

He originally thought that only a small ancestral hall would be built, like the one deep in the tung trees.

"Uh haha!" Xin Li said seriously with a smile on her face: "But compared with what King Lei Guan did, these are just small things!"

The ecology in this mountain has been so severely damaged that if you want to restore it, it will not only require a lot of manpower, but also a lot of money.

King Lei Guan used his great power to repair everything here, saving a lot of money for the Padian Alliance.

Therefore, no matter on the surface or deep down in their hearts, they sincerely thank Lei Guanwang and Naoki.

"The chief has told me that King Lei Guan lost his faith before, was forgotten by the world, and wandered alone in the vast white snowfields... There are also such legends circulating in Zhiqin Town."

Having said this, Xin Li paused for a moment, and then asked softly: "In this case, it should be able to help King Lei Guan, right?"

Help Him increase faith and restore strength.

Naoki nodded: "That's right."

It's just that King Lei Guan's power has now returned to its peak. Regarding these beliefs...

With it, it can speed up the recovery of his energy and help World Tree accelerate its growth. It doesn't matter if it is gone.

Hearing the exact answer from Naoki's mouth, Xin Li nodded slightly: "Ha~ That's the best!"

"King Lei Guan would also be very happy if he knew about it." Naoki said, but it was a pity that King Lei Guan stayed in the pasture and did not follow him just now.

"Ah~" Xin Li let out a long sigh. Then, she remembered another thing, turned around and asked, "Do you want the Padian Alliance to tell the outside world about King Lei Guan being by your side?"

Naoki had already considered this matter before.

Therefore, he shook his head and refused: "Forget it, just let nature take its course."

For example, some trainers heard the legend of King Lei Guan and became interested in King Lei Guan, so they came to visit the shrine on the mountain behind Ziqin Town.

Instead of just coming to the ranch to challenge Raiguan because of his legendary Pokémon name.

In that case, King Lei Guan, who has changed his job from king to farmer, will probably be very troubled.

Hearing this, Xin Li nodded: "Okay, because the previous forest fires attracted a lot of people's attention, and they also sent a lot of supplies to the surviving Pokémon."

"So the Padian Alliance plans to tell the people living in this place through TV news that there is a legendary Pokémon with a loving heart who can't bear to see such a miserable situation, so he uses his great power to let the descendants The mountains are coming back to life and the forests have been restored to their original appearance, how do you feel?"

Naoki nodded and said hello.

In this case, the deeds of King Lei Guan will be passed down forever in the Padia region, right?

This is no longer the age of the ancient kingdom, but the more enlightened age of the Alliance, not to mention that there are still newspapers, television and other media that can record the legend of King Lei Guan.

Even Ye Ci, who is the leader of the alliance, would have a hard time erasing the traces of King Lei Guan’s existence under such circumstances.

In this way, no matter where Lei Guanwang goes, she will never fall into the same situation as before.

Forgotten by the world, abandoned by his beloved horse, wandering alone in the crown snowfield.

This is all he can do for King Lei Guan, Naoki thought to himself.

At this time, the big men built the ancestral hall of King Lei Guan.

Naoki thought they would turn around and leave, but he never thought that they would drive deeper into the forest.

Seeing this scene, Naoki was slightly startled, "Where are they going?"

Xin Li sighed: "In order to commemorate the Pokémon that died in the fire, the Padia Alliance is planning to build a Pokémon cemetery deep in the forest, hoping that the Pokémon that lost their lives in the fire can rest in peace... It’s quite sad to say.”

Naoki also thought of the dead Pokémon they found when they were searching and rescuing in the forest last year.

At that time, he dug a pit for them, buried them, and took Baboo and them to pray for the group of Pokémon.

The Padian Alliance must have thought of this too, right?

The two followed and finally came to a clearing in the forest.

In the open space, those big men in work clothes were digging the soil and burying the tombstones with the names of the dead Pokémon in the soil.

Xin Li looked at this scene and murmured: "I heard that Pokémon do not disappear after death. They turn into ghosts and wander around this land, looking for the direction of home."

Zhi Shu was silent. He knew more about this matter than Xin Li.

After death, all humans and Pokémon will become ghosts, and then return to the spirit world and re-participate in the cycle of the world.

If there is a ghost who is too obsessed with leaving, the night demon spirit, the gatekeeper of the spiritual world, will appear and take it into the spiritual world and lead it to hell.

"I wonder if my foreign soul will be taken to the spiritual world by the night demon after death." Naoki murmured in his heart.

Seeing his thoughtful expression, Xin Li comforted him: "Don't be too sad. Have you ever experienced the death of a Pokémon?"

Zhi Shuxin said that he was not sad. Hearing Xin Li's words, he shook his head.

"Birth, aging, sickness and death are normal things in this world." Xin Li looked up at the turbid sky: "Have you ever heard of Pokémon like Tomb Raider?"

Zhi Shu was stunned: "Tomb Yang Dog?"

"Yes!"

"People say that as long as those who have experienced the death of a Pokémon keep that Pokémon deeply in their hearts, they will meet a Tomb Raider one day in the future."

"That's because the Pokémon that was missed felt the trainer's thoughts, so it was reincarnated into Tomb Swallow and returned to his side."

"This is really..." Naoki didn't know what words to use to describe this kind of thing.

At this point, Xin Li smiled softly and said, "However, as long as you keep the Pokémon healthy and strong, they will live for a long, long time!"

"I once saw a Bada butterfly that lived for almost sixty years! Its trainer would take it to exercise every day and eat various tree fruits to replenish the nutrients needed by the body. It was only in its thirties or forties. The Bada Butterfly, which has a life expectancy of 20 years, has lived for more than 20 years!"

Naoki had never imagined this path: "Is it really possible? Are you kidding?"

Xin Li: "Of course! How can I joke...? This is something I have personally encountered, Sister Xin Li!"

Naoki: "..."

Decided! After returning to the ranch, he will let everyone practice and make various nutrients for them, so that the group of Pokémon can live for a long time!

Naoki made a decision in his heart.

Looking at Xin Li in front of him, who seemed to be no older than him, Naoki suddenly remembered something.

If he remembered correctly, the Four Heavenly Kings of the Padian League were very special.

Xinli, the king of the ground, Bashuo, the king of the dragon type, Aoki, the king of the flying type, and the youngest, Popi, the king of the steel type, who is only nine years old.

At this time, Popi might have just been born...

Out of curiosity, Naoki couldn't help but ask: "By the way, who are the Four Heavenly Kings of the Padian Alliance?"

He jumped to the topic so quickly that Xin Li didn't react for a while. It took a while before she realized what Naoki said.

Xin Li asked curiously: "The Four Heavenly Kings? Has the chief invited you to come to the Padia Alliance to serve as the Four Heavenly Kings? If so, it seems quite interesting!"

"Not really." Naoki shook his head: "Chief, she just invited me to work in the alliance."

"Is that so?" Uncle Aoki."

"There is still a vacant position for the king. Since the last king retired, no one has filled it, and it has continued until now."

Naoki asked in confusion: "Then what if a trainer challenges the Four Heavenly Kings?"

Xin Li: "Temporarily pull one of the champion trainers to work part-time!"

Naoki: "..."

As expected of the Padian League, it is too common for one person to hold multiple positions here.

For example, Aoki's main job is as a staff member of the Pokémon sales department. As a result, he not only has to be a gym leader, but also a flying king.

Not only Aoki, Xin Li also plays the role of interviewer in the Pokémon League.

Even Yeci doesn't have much time to spare. She not only has to deal with alliance matters, but also patrols various gyms to find talents suitable to join the Padia Alliance.

Busy!

In comparison, life on the ranch is leisurely and comfortable.

*

In the afternoon, Xin Li left the ranch in a hurry after receiving a phone call.

According to her, a trainer has collected eight gym badges and is coming to the alliance headquarters to challenge the Four Heavenly Kings.

As an interviewer, she had to get back to work as soon as possible.

Naoki: "..."

He could only watch Xin Li's figure go away.

Judging from the current progress, the construction work of the Temple of Fertility cannot be completed in one or two days.

Because in addition to building the ancestral hall, those workers also had to lay stairs leading down the mountain.

Hearing what Xin Li said, the Padian Alliance and the mayor of Ziqin Town, Thomas, had a special discussion. They seemed to be planning to build a complete set of shrines and prepare to designate the day when King Lei Guan performed the miracle as a fertility festival.

On this day every year, the town will hold a festival at the shrine to commemorate the great deeds of King Lei Guan.

Regarding the festival... Naoki only had sporadic memories of what he had seen in anime before.

Like a girl wearing a festival costume, chewing wine, an old man presiding over the festival, and so on.

At that time, people will light up the entire mountain path with torches, and then set off from the foot of the mountain to the shrine to pay homage to the gods enshrined in the shrine.

Dusk is approaching and the sky is filled with sunset.

The laughter and laughter of Pokémon could be heard in the pasture.

They chase and play in the grass, or pick flowers in the flowers.

When Naoki returned to the ranch, he received a handful of small yellow flowers in full bloom from the Motorized Lizard.

Seeing this scene, Naoki immediately remembered the time when the Motorized Lizard gave him flowers last spring. As a result, Guluton got jealous of it and picked a bouquet of flowers for him.

Naoki reached out and took the bouquet of flowers from the Motorized Lizard, preparing to put it in the vase in the room, and then touched the Motorized Lizard's head:

"How sweet. I like these flowers very much."

"Gah!" The motorcycle lizard let out a happy cry, and then wagged its tail happily.

Naoki was curious about how Gullton would react this time.

He turned around and saw that Gulton, who was sleeping under the eaves, had disappeared.

Zhi Shu was a little surprised. He turned his head and saw Ledun plunge into the lush flower field.

After a while, Guluton turned back.

It holds a handful of colorful flowers in its hand.

"..."

Sure enough, nothing has changed! Guluton is still the same Guluton!

Zhi Shu reached out and took it, because if he only took the flowers from the Motorized Lizard and not from Gu Ledun, Gu Ledun would be jealous and angry.

"Okay! Let's go play!" Naoki said.

However, Gullton hadn't left yet. He just saw Naoki touching the Motorized Lizard's head, so he also moved his head towards it.

Naoki helplessly touched its head, and Luton was satisfied.

"Ah gah~"

Childish elementary school chicken!

Naoki turned around and prepared to go back to the room to prepare dinner for everyone.

Therefore, Luton and Motorized Lizard followed behind him, one on the left and the other on the right.

While taking ingredients from the refrigerator, Naoki remembered the information Yeji had told him before.

Ye Ci said that Adek no longer handles alliance affairs, and now he is probably wandering around the Hezhong area.

Therefore, it is very difficult to find Adek.

Looking at the bottle of Life Goat Milk in front of him, Naoki said a pity in his heart.

It was impossible for him to leave everything in the ranch and go to the Hezhu area to look for Adek.

It was getting dark, and the Babu woodchucks who were playing outside came back home one after another.

Looking at them, Naoki remembered what Xin Li said today.

——Grow Pokémon to be healthy and strong so that they can live a long time.

Whether it’s the Bubba Woodchuck, the Motorcycle Lizard, the Frost Milk Fairy, or the Three Bees and the Big Butterfly, you can’t miss any of them!
