However, since Ash is Mew's trainer after all, Mew still gave Ash a privilege, because Mew is a legendary beast born from the World Tree, and the World Tree was nourished by Alan who sacrificed himself with his wave power.
And Xiaozhi is the reincarnation of Yalang, and his wave power is even stronger. So the moment Xiaozhi conquered Mew, their wave power converged together, and they could communicate with each other no matter how far apart they were. As long as Xiaozhi summoned, Mew would come.
"Ah? Mew is here, you didn't even notice?" Xiaozhi glanced at Gongsun Yan in surprise and gestured to Pikachu standing on his shoulder.
"Huh? Pikachu? Yes, isn't Pikachu in Xiaoxia's arms? Then the one on your shoulder now is Mew." Gongsun Yan looked at Pikachu lying in Xiaoxia's arms, tapped his palm with sudden realization, and said with some annoyance.
"miu~" Finding that Gongsun Yan finally recognized her, Menghuan stopped pretending. After a snicker, she turned back into her original form, lay on Xiaozhi's shoulder and greeted Gongsun Yan.
Although Gongsun Yan had been able to perfectly differentiate between Pikachu and Pikachu transformed by Mew before, that was only possible after the two Pokémon were together. When he was caught off guard by this, he really couldn't see any difference.
It's like two bottles of red wine with the labels torn off, one is from Cheval Blanc and the other is from Château Hôtel-Roi. If you drink the two bottles side by side, I believe everyone can tell which one is Cheval Blanc. But if you drink them separately, it's unlikely that most people can tell the difference.
"Hehe, this would be fun. Xiaozhi, how could you do this!" Gongsun Yan was muttering softly at first, but suddenly raised his voice when he said the last sentence.
"Ah? What's wrong with me?" Xiaozhi was frightened by Gongsun Yan's roar. He looked at Gongsun Yan with a confused face. The attention of other people around him was also diverted. Even Xiaohao, who had lost his shine, was attracted.
"You said you conquered Menghuan with your personal charm, so how can you let him run around outside? What should you do if you run into some weird people? You have to be careful!"
When Gongsun Yan said this, his attitude was as pretentious as it could be. He even made way for Xiao Hao to clearly see the dream on Xiao Zhi's shoulder, and his words were full of sarcasm towards him.
"That's a dream, how can it be possible!"
"boom!"
After seeing Menghuan, Xiao Hao suddenly became excited and struggled to get up from the ground. As for what he was going to do next, no one knew, because Picosi's long-accumulated destructive death light had turned him into a meteor in the sky, and he disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The cruelest thing in the world is not being unable to realize your dream, but having your dream right within reach but being unable to move forward even one step. This was Gongsun Yan's final blow to Xiao Hao, and it also pushed Xiao Hao one step further into the abyss of madness.
Chapter 52: The tug of war between two powerful talkers
"It's been a long day. There's no need to hold on to the baby like this. You have to treat him equally. The coyotes and dogs are about to cry."
Gongsun Yan looked at the baby writhing in Liliae's arms with jealousy on his face and made a very unhappy suggestion. However, it was unclear whether it was the coyotes or Gongsun Yan himself who was unhappy.
"Hey, it's normal for Pi Baobao to feel uneasy since he just left his family. Don't be jealous. At most, he will compensate you tonight~"
Liliae smiled as she watched Gongsun Yan getting angry like a little child, and quickly began to comfort Gongsun Yan. She whispered the last sentence into Gongsun Yan's ear, and after she finished speaking, she licked Gongsun Yan's earlobe with a sense of mischief.
"You, you, you, who did you learn this from? You are still young. No, no, no, you can't. I, this, that, anyway, you can't do this yet!"
Gongsun Yan, who was successfully ambushed by Liliae, blushed immediately, without noticing that Liliae, who had done such a bold thing, was also blushing. After saying a lot of nonsense, he ran away after saying "It's not possible yet".
"Tsk, you are a coward with evil intentions but no courage. I won't resist..." Liliae was originally feeling shy for her bold behavior, but after seeing Gongsun Yan fleeing in panic, she felt relieved but also a little angry. I have come right to my door, and you are still running away. You must be looking down on me.
If Gongsun Yan knew what Liliae was thinking, he would probably cry. Not because he missed the opportunity, but because he wondered who taught these things to the pure Liliae. If he knew who that person was, he would definitely have a good talk with the other person.
Then Gongsun Yan had to sit in a chair and listen to his mother-in-law's scolding, just like his grandson. Yes, all this knowledge was taught to Lillie by Lusamine. Lusamine's original intention was to let Lillie be careful of Gongsun Yan and not be deceived by him.
As a result, after Liliae thoroughly understood this knowledge, she turned her thoughts around. Instead of thinking about how to use this knowledge to guard against Gongsun Yan, she thought about using this knowledge to lure Gongsun Yan into making mistakes. After all, the same tricks can be used by men, and naturally women can use them as well.
However, Liliae, like Gongsun Yan, is essentially a talker. Although she can talk a lot of theories, and Gongsun Yan can even use the special skills she learned from stupid netizens in her previous life to discuss the pros and cons of different postures with others, but when it comes to really practicing, I'm sorry, she doesn't know how.
Then the two of them fell into silence, walking silently in the mole cave. Last night, after watching Pippi's Full Moon Dance with Xiaozhi and the others, they set up camp on the spot and rested for a night.
The next morning, Gongsun Yan and Liliae said goodbye to Xiaozhi and his group, and started looking for the entrance to the Diglett Cave on Yuejian Mountain.
Because Xiao Hao had come to Yuejian Mountain from the mole cave before and left a lot of traces, Gongsun Yan found the entrance in a short while and walked down with Liliae.
Since there was no luminous object in the Diglett Cave, Gongsun Yan released Gardevoir to provide illumination. Since no one knows when the Flash Technique might be effective, Gongsun Yan equipped many Pokémon with it, and now it is being used.
Walking in the Diglett Cave, Gongsun Yan and Liliae saw many ground-type and rock-type Pokémon living in the Kanto region. The most common of them was probably Sandshrew, which was everywhere.
In addition to these ground-type Pokémon, we also saw a lot of Pokémon like Zubat that prefer dark environments. In fact, Gongsun Yan likes Zubat very much. After all, his final evolution form, Xorbat, is also a very powerful Pokémon.
However, the idea was just an idea, and Gongsun Yan never put it into action. He already had enough Pokémon and did not need to add more. Besides, for him, Crossbat was not a necessary Pokémon.
However, Gongsun Yan and Liliae did see a very rare Pokémon in the Digger Cave that wasn't too bad looking. That was Dragonite. Although the word "dragon" is in its name, its appearance and attributes have nothing to do with dragons.
To be honest, Gongsun Yan is actually quite curious about why a Pokémon like Dragonite was designed. It's not good in battles and its appearance is poor, so it's not necessarily just to make up the numbers, right?
However, this little earth dragon was unusually not afraid of strangers. After crawling out of the soil, it did not use its tail to dig a hole in the ground to escape like its peers, but instead took the initiative to come to the feet of the two people.
Oh, by the way, this little brother Dragonite is not afraid of strangers. In fact, he was scared to death when he met Gongsun Yan, but he didn't react at all when he met Lillie. It can be seen that Lillie's affinity for Pokémon is no worse than Xiaozhi's.
Seeing that Earth Dragon liked Lillie so much, Gongsun Yan suggested that Lillie capture him. Anyway, Lillie didn't like fighting, and she usually carried a few Poké Balls given to her by Gongsun Yan for self-defense. It was no big deal to capture a few Pokémon she liked, and Gongsun Yan could afford to raise them.
But after thinking for a while, Liliae gave up on capturing Dragonite. She fed him some Pokémon food and let him go. Looking at Dragonite's back as he left, there was a hint of struggle in Liliae's eyes. However, Liliae didn't say anything until Dragonite left.
When Gongsun Yan later asked Liliae the reason, Liliae only said that Brother Tulong should live here, and it would be too cruel to take him away for personal gain.
Gongsun Yan was particularly pleased about this. Lillie actually had such an understanding now. It showed that Lillie's values were very positive, so positive that Gongsun Yan felt ashamed of himself.
After saying goodbye to brother Tulong, Gongsun Yan and Liliae had the scene at the beginning. The originally slightly sad atmosphere suddenly became strange. The two people who were traveling together were brainstorming, but they didn't say a word.
"Ahem, the exit near Vermilion Leaf City is right in front of us. Let's slow down and get used to the brightness so that we don't get dazzled when we get out."
"Oh."
After seeing the light ahead, Gongsun Yan realized that the exit was near, and he spoke out to break the deadlock. Then he was confused by Liliae's simple "Oh" and didn't know what to say for a moment. He shouldn't have said anything wrong just now, so how could this happen?
"You're such an idiot! Shouldn't you gently hold my hand, hold me in your arms, and cover my eyes while reminding me softly? You're such a straight man!" Liliae became even angrier when she saw Gongsun Yan's confused look on his face.
Gongsun Yan probably never imagined that Liliae was actually struggling with this before his death. This might be the difference between an emotional girl and a rational boy.
Chapter 53: Differences between Boys and Girls
"Phew, it feels really good to be able to take a shower and rest after coming out of that dark place in the mole cave!"
Gongsun Yan was wearing a bathrobe and sitting on the sofa in the living room. He stretched hard, his whole body filled with laziness, and the deep-rooted earthy smell on his body was washed away by the fresh and natural shower gel.
Although the mole cave is around Vermilion Leaf City, it is actually still a certain distance away from Vermilion Leaf City. When Gongsun Yan and Liliae arrived at Vermilion Leaf City, it was already afternoon.
To be honest, if it was Gongsun Yan alone, he would definitely go straight to the Dead Leaf Gym to challenge Ma Zhishi. Regardless of whether the challenge was successful in the end, it would be faster to finish the job before going back to rest.
But Gongsun Yan is not alone now, he has his girlfriend Liliae by his side, so he naturally won't choose such a difficult option. He is just a little straight, but not stupid.
So Gongsun Yan took Liliae to get a room. Don't get the wrong idea, that's not what happened. Gongsun Yan chose a suite with several rooms, so the plots you imagined would never happen...right?
After checking in, Gongsun Yan and Liliae each chose a room and went to take a shower. Because they had been walking in the mole cave for half a day, Gongsun Yan deliberately extended the shower time and took a full ten minutes, which was already a miracle for Gongsun Yan.
As a result, when Gongsun Yan came out, he found that Lilia had not finished washing yet, so he lay on the sofa and waited. Then he lay there for more than half an hour. Gongsun Yan was about to fall asleep, but Lilia had not finished washing yet.
"Are girls so slow in taking a shower? This afternoon tea will turn into a midnight snack." Gongsun Yan lay on the sofa and panted.
More than an hour had passed since Gongsun Yan and the other arrived at the hotel. Gongsun Yan was almost fainting from hunger. Liliae finally came out of the room, which made the dying Gongsun Yan suddenly energetic.
"Hehe, look, I've been cleaning it for so long, now it looks much better." Liliae turned around in front of Gongsun Yan and asked him with a smile.
"Well...you are already very beautiful normally, and of course you look even more beautiful now." Gongsun Yan said with a smile.
Originally, Gongsun Yan wanted to agree and say "Of course", but he was afraid that Lillie would say to him "Then was I not good-looking before?", so he thought quickly and modified what he wanted to say slightly. Although the original intention did not change at all, Lillie was obviously a lot happier.
Honestly, maybe it was because Gongsun Yan was a mortal, he actually didn't notice any difference between Liliae and before. She was still just as pretty, but he still asked her if she had become prettier, which was very strange.
And what happened just now made Gongsun Yan understand one thing. Why did girls always come late when boys and girls went on dates in his previous life? Maybe it wasn’t because they were being arrogant, but because they had too many things to prepare.
Take Gongsun Yan for example. If he has something to do and needs to pack up before going out, it will probably take him no more than twenty minutes. After all, taking a shower takes less than ten minutes, let alone anything else. Twenty minutes is plenty of time. I guess this is the case for most boys.
As for girls going out, referring to the time it takes Liliae to take a shower, Gongsun Yan once again felt fortunate that he was a boy. Spending so much precious time on such things was something Gongsun Yan absolutely could not accept.
Originally, Gongsun Yan had planned to stroll around Vegetative City with Lilia, but now Gongsun Yan was so hungry that he no longer had the mood to do so. Nothing could stop his desire to find food.
So Gongsun Yan took Liliae to wander around the streets and alleys of Kuye City. He had done his homework during the waiting time. It was said that there was a very good store in Kuye City. It was said that the food was delicious, but it would still take some effort to find this store.
This obviously aroused Gongsun Yan's interest. In his previous life, he lived in a country of delicious food. "The real food is hidden in the streets and alleys." This sentence is well known to everyone, so Gongsun Yan concluded on the spot that the restaurant must be delicious.
Besides, although Gongsun Yan was hungry, he couldn't just do it half-heartedly because he was hungry. Otherwise, wouldn't it be enough to just eat a bowl of ramen outside? So Gongsun Yan took Lilia to look for this store.
I don’t know if it was because of Gongsun Yan’s nature as a foodie, or because his powerful stomach was the guide, but Gongsun Yan actually found the store without looking at a map or asking anyone, and it took less than ten minutes.
As for why Gongsun Yan was so sure that this was the store, it was naturally because he saw a man with muscular body and his every word and action revealed a military style. Gongsun Yan recognized at a glance that the other person was the gym trainer of the Withered Leaf Gym, Ma Zhishi.
The reason why Gongsun Yan thinks the food in this restaurant tastes good is because Ma Zhishi is a regular customer of this restaurant. Since this restaurant can attract a gym trainer to patronize it frequently, it must be good.
Gongsun Yan and Liliae walked into the store. Although the store looked small and was actually not very big, it had an inexplicable charm and gave people a feeling of being in the Unova region.
This also explains why Ma Zhishi likes this place. The place where he served before was the Unova region. It can be said that he lived in the Unova region much longer than in the Kanto region, so it is normal for him to miss it.
After Gongsun Yan and Liliae sat down, Liliae was holding the menu and thinking about what to eat tonight, while Gongsun Yan started chatting with Ma Zhishi. The two people who didn't know each other before got along very well.
Even though Ma Zhishi behaved so brutally during the gym battle, he was actually a very easy-going person in private. He even told Gongsun Yan a few jokes about the Unova region, but there was inevitably some color in them.
After knowing that Lillie was Gongsun Yan's girlfriend, he praised Lillie's beauty and wished them all the best. He looked less like a gym trainer and more like a kind boy next door.
The reason why he was so ruthless during the gym battle was probably due to the habits or sequelae left over from his military career.
Chapter 54: Scolding Xiao Hao with Ma Zhishi
Although Ma Zhishi has retired from the army, there is a saying that goes, once a soldier, always a soldier. The place where he lives has changed from Unova to Kanto, and his identity has changed from a soldier to a gym trainer, but what remains unchanged is his burning heart.
When taking over the Withered Leaf Gym, Ma Zhishi regarded it as his next battlefield. He regarded every challenger as his enemy and fought every challenger with all his strength.
This also led to the bad reputation of Mashiro before. After all, even if Mashiro would choose the Pokémon to fight based on the strength of the challenger, how could the command ability of those new trainers be compared with that of the gym trainers?
Not to mention that their strengths are similar, even if the Pokémon in the hands of those children are a little stronger, it is the same. No matter at what stage, the trainer's command ability has a higher priority than the strength of the Pokémon, unless the difference in strength is too great, reaching the level of using force to overcome cleverness.
However, Xiaozhi's behavior a year ago also made Ma Zhishi wake up. As a gym trainer, his responsibility is to guide those new trainers, not simply to beat them. So Ma Zhishi changed. He became patient and began to teach those challengers who came to challenge the gym.
After a year, Ma Zhishi's reputation has changed tremendously. Those who were afraid of him have begun to love him. However, compared with the gym trainer Nancy in Golden Yellow City, he is still far behind. After all, Nancy has already debuted as an idol and has countless fans.
We have to mention Xiao Hao here. Although it may sound unlucky to mention him, we have to say that Xiao Hao is still quite capable. He actually succeeded in making Ma Zhishi, who had been cultivating himself for more than a year, become so furious. He is indeed a talent.
Because of his previous life, Gongsun Yan always had a great liking for soldiers. Coupled with his rich life experience, his relationship with Ma Zhishi immediately became familiar.
During this period, Ma Zhishi also told everyone about Xiao Hao's challenge to the gym. It would have been fine if he had just scolded such a weak guy for challenging his gym, but he actually dared to be so arrogant. He was almost hurt by the anger, and he still didn't feel satisfied even after he kicked the guy out of the gym.
Gongsun Yan felt the story was very familiar to him as soon as he heard it, especially as it was something a brainless person like Xiao Hao would do. Originally, he just tentatively asked the man's name, but it turned out to be Xiao Hao.
"Fuck, why does this story sound so familiar? It turns out it was really that guy. Let me tell you, that guy is really a bad guy. He actually..." Gongsun Yan was also filled with righteous indignation and told everyone what Xiao Hao had done.
There was no need for Gongsun Yan to add any exaggeration. He simply recounted what Xiao Hao had done verbatim, and explained Xiao Hao's path as a trainer who only conquered people without training or fighting.
As a result, Ma Zhishi was about to explode after hearing this. For the first time, he felt that he might have been too lenient. As a gym trainer, he should take good care of this new trainer with bad thoughts. He should take care of the child and chop down the sapling.
Although storylines, battles, capturing creatures, and hatching eggs are all part of the fun of Pokémon games, in the Pokémon world, these elements are integrated together and cannot be separated.
As mentioned before, the Poké Ball is not just a tool for capturing Pokémon, it is more like a contract between the trainer and the Pokémon, an item that symbolizes the bond between the two parties.
Trainers like Shinji may seem cold-blooded, but he is actually fulfilling the contract between himself and Pokémon. He helps Pokémon become stronger, and Pokémon obeys him. This can also be considered a contract, and there is no emotion involved.
Perhaps Shinji will never be able to mega evolve his Pokémon in his lifetime, let alone bond evolution which requires higher bonds, but his Pokémon are still very loyal and recognize their trainers.
As for Xiao Hao? From the fact that the five Pokémon took the initiative to smash his Poké Ball, we can know what the relationship between him and Pokémon is. It's better not to mention it.
To explain it in game terms, the initial favorability of Pokémon captured with a Poké Ball is about 60, which is just passing, while the favorability of all of Gongsun Yan's and Xiaozhi's Pokémon is the full value of 100.
The favorability between Shinji and his Pokémon is roughly between seventy and eighty. Except for Tortoise, none of the other Pokémon can break through the limit of eighty. They are basically stuck in this range and cannot make any progress.
As for Xiao Hao, apart from Fennekin, he is probably only around fifty. He is the type who will barely listen to your orders, but may defect at any time. Gongsun Yan couldn't even think of this kind of operation that would deduct favorability, but Xiao Hao has already implemented it, which is quite outrageous.
Gongsun Yan and Ma Zhishi once again reached a consensus on their dislike for Xiao Hao. The feeling of having a common enemy undoubtedly brought the two closer together. If Gongsun Yan had not been young and unable to drink, the two of them would probably have become brothers on the spot.
However, compared to the instant hit it off between Gongsun Yan and Ma Zhishi, Liliae did not have a good face towards Ma Zhishi, because during this dinner time, Gongsun Yan did not even look at her and kept chatting with this muscular man, which made her feel jealous.
In the end, Ma Zhishi felt a murderous aura looming over him, but Gongsun Yan was still unaware and continued talking to Ma Zhishi. After all, his alarm had already regarded Liliae as a friendly force and determined that she posed no threat.
This incident also tells us a fact, that is, life experience does not represent emotional intelligence. Gongsun Yan's life tonight must be very "colorful".
Ma Zhishi obviously couldn't withstand Lillie's death gaze, and he was already full, so he planned to leave after adding Gongsun Yan as a friend of the Pokémon Navigator.
But Gongsun Yan stopped him and told him that he would go back to challenge the gym tomorrow. Ma Zhishi said that he would wait for Gongsun Yan in the gym. Fortunately, there was no challenger scheduled for tomorrow, so Gongsun Yan could come anytime.
After Ma Zhishi left, Gongsun Yan finally turned his attention to Liliae, and then he found that Liliae was very angry and the kind that was hard to coax. This also made Gongsun Yan deeply aware of the mistakes he had made before, and now he could only find a way to make up for it.
ps: Oops, I almost got the order of the two chapters wrong. Fortunately I found it in time, otherwise it would have been a big problem.
Chapter 55: Can't Think of a Chapter Title
The next morning, Gongsun Yan got up from the bed and stretched out towards the rising sun. The bed in this hotel was quite comfortable. After a good rest, Gongsun Yan felt refreshed immediately, which made him feel that the money spent on this hotel was worthwhile.
As for why Gongsun Yan felt that he had made no loss, it was mainly because he wanted a suite, but he only used a bed at night. He couldn't go into too much detail about the rest, or he would be censored.
In short, Gongsun Yan's act of comforting Liliae last night was a great success and successfully made Liliae no longer angry, which was obviously a welcome thing. Then, somehow, Gongsun Yan was unable to return to his room and fell asleep in bed in a daze.
But don't worry, Gongsun Yan did nothing. It's not that he didn't want to, but his age of ten limited him. In addition, a legendary magic book called "Criminal Law" stood in Gongsun Yan's mind, forcing Gongsun Yan to be Liuxia Hui.
Of course, Gongsun Yan was not a good guy either. Although he did not reach home base, he still reached second base and even touched the edge of third base. It was only because Liliae was too nervous that Gongsun Yan gave up.
Looking at Liliae who was still sleeping soundly, Gongsun Yan suppressed his lust that had arisen in the early morning and prepared to wash up and take a shower. After all, he felt a little hot last night.
