Pokemon: Retired Padea champion reemployed

Because it was daytime, the vision of the Lingyouma was somewhat degraded and it was almost impossible to see the surrounding objects clearly.

Fortunately, even if the vision was degraded, the Lingyouma was even more sensitive than ordinary Pokémon in terms of the other five senses.

Even if it couldn't see, the Lingyouma only needed to detect the surrounding situation through the other senses, and it could still correctly grasp the terrain and the location of creatures.

After all, it was an area famous for agriculture. Although there were no wide roads, the road leading to Beishang Township was still built.

Thanks to this, Luo Mu was able to let the Lingyouma rush forward along this road, while he ate fruit worms on his head, carried the Mimikyu on his shoulder, and read the Beishang Township brochure from the airport.

There were actually quite a few vehicles entering and leaving Beishang Township on the road, and they all looked at Luo Mu riding the Lingyouma curiously, attracting many eyes.

Although Luo Mu had checked the information in advance, the information on the Internet was not 100% accurate. On the contrary, the tourist brochures that were frequently replaced at the airport were basically some news that was not outdated.

After browsing, most of the information is similar to the information in Luo Mu's memory, and there are many details.

Beishang Township is far from being a region, and it is even just a corner of a region.

At the same time, the name of the town where people live in Beishang Township is Cuilv Town, and Beishang Township is based on Cuilv Town and radiates far outward. It is a general name for an area composed of multiple terrains.

There are towering mountains around Beishang Township, and the foot of the mountain is where people live and work. Because of the rich natural resources, this town independent of the mountains can be passed down.

The fruitworm, who was enjoying the rare breeze when the spirit horse galloped, found what Luo Mu was looking at, and carefully poked half of his body out of the apple, curiously staring at the brochure in Luo Mu's hand.

When Luo Mu turned the page to the photo of Apple Hill, the origin of Beishang Township's specialty apples, the fruitworm's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Kaji!"

It knew that as long as it reached there, it could complete its evolution.

The mimic hill on Luo Mu's shoulder was a little envious of the fruitworms.

I seem to be the kind of Pokémon that can't evolve since birth. I have seen so many companions evolve and heard them talk about the feeling of evolution. If I say I am not envious, it would be a lie.

However.

Mimikyuu looked down at the beautiful decorations on her body, and her little face hiding in the puppet skin blushed slightly.

I just need this.

The brochure is very thin, with only about a dozen pages. Except for a few pages introducing the environment of Kitakami Township, most of it describes the anecdotes and legends passed down by the residents of Kitakami Township.

"It is said that a long time ago, there was a very scary ghost in Beishang Township.

The ghost lurked in the back mountain of the village, and usually played pranks to scare people who went into the mountain to pick wild herbs.

But suddenly one day, the ghost was furious and suddenly came down the mountain, causing the villagers to panic.

At this time, Gouzan Dog, Yuanzeng Monkey and Jijiji happened to stay in the village. The three Pokémon who saw injustice and drew their swords to help risked their lives and finally drove the ghost back to the mountain.

Since then, these three brave Pokémon have been given a new name by the villagers. Everyone affectionately called them Baoban, and buried their remains with great respect, and built a statue of Baoban on it, and established Baoban Square."

This is the legend of Baoban passed down from generation to generation in Beishang Township.

Unfortunately, the brochure only mentioned this story. There were no pictures of the appearance of the so-called three Baobans and the statues. It seemed that a certain degree of cover-up was specially carried out to arouse the curiosity of tourists.

After all, half-covering the face is easier to attract people's curiosity than exposing it openly.

Ghost, Gouzan Dog, Yuan Zengyuan and Ji Jiji. Four Pokémon that I have never heard of, plus He Yue mentioned by Sha Li, this Beishang Township is interesting.

Could it be the DLC content that I haven't played, or a part of the new area?

Is the so-called ghost some kind of ghost Pokémon?

Three against one and killing three, just like the villain boss in the game, and it directly killed the villain boss of the hero. How strong is it? Is it a legendary Pokémon?

In addition to He Yue and various specialties of Beishang Township, Luo Mu admitted that he was more and more interested in Beishang Township.

Lingyouma's pace was very fast. Before the meal, Luo Mu saw the outline of Cuilv Town in Beishang Township.

In the distance are rolling mountains, with clouds and mist shrouding the tops of the mountains, covered with verdant vegetation.

In the near distance, beside the road leading into the town, a clear stream flows around the town, the sound of water gurgling, intertwined with the chirping of unknown bird Pokémon in the distance.

In order to let Luo Mu see more carefully, the spirit horse flew into the sky on the soul-like floating mist, as if walking in the air.

Amid the exclamations of the fruitworms and the mimicry hills, Luo Mu looked at the green town built at the foot of the mountain.

The town style of the entire green town looks like a very standard Japanese one-family house, full of rural style.

Looking a little further away, in addition to the huge forest of unknown depth, the hills near the green town are full of apple trees, and the green leaves and red apples are intertwined, which looks very pleasing to the eye.

There is also the "Wisteria Pond" in "Wisteria Plain" which is called "Six Selections of North" in the brochure and seems to be somewhat similar to the "Ten Views of Padia".

"Huh."

Until Luo Mu looked at the top of the mountain farthest away, he couldn't help but let out a light sigh.

Was it his illusion? The top of that mountain seemed to be glowing?

A moment later.

After enjoying the scenery, Luo Mu let Lingyouma land first.

After all, because they stayed in the air for a long time, the villagers of Cuilv Town who were outside at this time noticed the existence of Luo Mu and Lingyouma, and stretched their necks to look up at the sky.

Luo Mu, who was just traveling here, didn't want to be so high-profile that everyone in Cuilv Town knew about him before he even checked into the hotel.

He simply didn't think about the glowing mountain top for the time being, patted Lingyouma's neck, and let it land first.

After landing, Luo Mu first used the Poké Ball to take back Lingyouma, and directly walked into Cuilv Town with his bag on his back, with the fruit gnaw on his head and the mimicry on his shoulders, looking on without changing his face under the onlookers of many townspeople.

He didn't notice that two of the villagers who were watching kept staring at his back, and only retracted their gaze after he disappeared.

In Cuilv Town.

Although it is in the countryside, the roads in Cuilv Town are well marked. With the reminder from Sha Li, Luo Mu quickly found the place where he would live in the next few days.

From the outside, it looks like an ordinary one-family house. In fact, this is a homestay run by the residents of Cuilv Town in their spare time.

The style of the building follows the overall style of Cuilv Town. It is not outstanding and not ugly.

Under Sha Li's strong recommendation, Luo Mu finally did not choose the community center in Cuilv Town, but chose this nameless homestay.

"I hope there is an independent hot spring."

Luo Mu muttered and rang the doorbell on the wall.

Ding Dong~

After a clear and long doorbell rang, Luo Mu waited for a few seconds, and a slightly old answering voice came from the house.

"I'm here~"

With a swish, the wooden sliding door with a somewhat old style was opened, and an old man with white hair walked out.

Looking at his strange, slightly long middle-parted hairstyle that exposed his entire forehead, Luo Mu subconsciously thought of an old friend.

The old man had a mustache and a tuft of hair on his chin. He stroked his beard and walked towards Luo Mu with a smile.

"Are you the guest who will stay today?"

The old man asked with a little doubt.

It's not that he recognized Luo Mu, but he made a basic inference based on the fact that Luo Mu's dress was different from that of the residents of Cuilv Town, Beishang Township, and he was carrying a backpack.

"Hello, I'm Luo Mu. I should have made an appointment, right?"

As Luo Mu spoke, he once again cast his eyes on the house number hanging on the wall next to the doorbell to make sure he was not in the wrong way.

"It's you, of course I have an appointment. Sha Li made an appointment for you several days in advance."

The old man nodded and turned sideways to signal Luo Mu to come in.

Luo Mu followed him in and changed into disposable slippers at the entrance.

It must be said that the house has a strong Japanese style, whether it is the structure of the entrance, the wooden floor that makes a slight creaking sound when walking on it, or the decorations of various styles, all make Luo Mu think that he has traveled through time again.

Come to think of it, Kitakami Township is located close to the Johto region and the Sinnoh region. The prototypes of those two regions are known, so it is not surprising that there are similar cultures.

The old man led the way in front and introduced the facilities in the house.

"This house is usually occupied by me and my wife. Our children have all started families, and then our grandchildren were born. After that, they settled down in other places in the town, and the house became empty."

"Perhaps the house is too empty, so my wife and I discussed it and decided to find someone to renovate it and turn the second floor into a homestay, renting it to tourists like you who come to Beishang Township."

"The second floor is an independent space. My wife and I only go up to clean it at a fixed time every day. You and your Pokémon can live here safely. If the Pokémon is too heavy, let it stay in the Poké Ball. It's too heavy and prone to accidents."

"Okay." Luo Mu nodded, listening carefully, as if he remembered something, and asked again: "From what you mean, who was the last tenant here?"

"Of course it was Shali, but she has been camping in the Permanent Forest for many days to take some photos."

The old man shook his head, as if he didn't understand the ideas of young people today.

Then, he laughed and said, "The girl has paid for your accommodation, and I have also replaced all the supplies for you. It should be okay, right?"

Luo Mu: "Of course it's okay."

He could roughly guess that the old man probably thought that he had a special relationship with Sha Li.

"This is a restaurant for eating. Three meals a day are provided. Although my wife and I usually eat very light meals, it does not mean that our cooking skills are not good. The accommodation fee also includes the meal fee. We will prepare you delicious food with Beishang Township characteristics."

"There is also an open-air hot spring in the backyard. The guests and ours are separated. Please go and enjoy it. Soak in the hot spring and all your fatigue can be washed away."

"And."

The old man talked a lot. Compared with the community center similar to a hotel, this kind of homestay is indeed more humane.

Luo Mu also had a general understanding of the living environment in the next few days, and had to sigh that Sha Li was indeed a photographer who traveled around the world and could still find such a great B\u0026B.

When there was nothing left to explain, the old man remembered that he had not introduced himself yet.

"My name is Xuezhong, and my wife is Maozi. If you need anything, please don't be polite."

Xuezhong showed a kind smile to Luo Mu.

"I'm asking you to take good care of me during this period, Mr. Xuezhong."

Luo Mu nodded and prepared to go to the second floor to pack his luggage.

Only then did Xuezhong notice the fruit-gnawing bug above Luo Mu's head, and asked in surprise: "Is this child your Pokémon?"

"Yes, one of the reasons why I came to Beishang Township is to give it a chance to evolve."

Luo Mu did not deny it and picked up the fruit-gnawing insect from above his head.

"There are many fruit-gnawing bugs in the Apple Hill. It's not easy to fight for special apples." Xuezhong stroked his beard with a look of memories on his face, "Speaking of which, my grandson also tamed a fruit-gnawing bug recently. As for fruit worms, that’s a coincidence.”

Then, Xuezhong seemed to have thought of a good idea. His eyes lit up and he asked Luo Mu, "Luo Mu, do you need a tour guide? My grandchildren are at home on vacation. Why not let them be your tour guide for free?" ?”

"Look at them, they've been having a lot of fun lately, and school is about to start, so they should do something to calm down."

"They are all children born and raised in this green town. They know the surrounding environment very well. You can rest assured that they are definitely more familiar with the environment of Beishang Township than the tour guides from the tour companies that you pay for."

"And they are also trainers. Even if they go into the wild, as long as they don't go too deep, they can still protect your safety."

It was hard to refuse the hospitality, so Luo Mu accepted the enthusiastic Xuezhong's proposal and planned to take a break, have lunch, and then let Xuezhong's grandchildren take him to visit Beishang Township.

At least it's better than wandering around alone.

Before stepping onto the stairs to the second floor, Luo Mu deliberately bumped his shoulder towards Xuezhong, exposing Mimikyu, who was often ignored as long as there was no interaction with Luo Mu, to Xuezhong.

"Mr. Xuezhong, in addition to fruit-gnawing fruit worms, I also have Mimikyu with me."

"Oh, it's true. It seems that I have presbyopia again."

Xuezhong stared at Mimikyu who seemed to him to have "suddenly appeared" with his eyes wide open for a long time. Finally, he smiled and praised without hesitation: "It's a girl, right? It's really cute after wearing the decoration." cute!"
