Pokemon that travel the wrong way

Early the next morning, Xiaoyou came to the elf center to collect the eggs as promised...

"Here, this is the elf egg sent to you." Miss Joy took out a transparent cylindrical jar from under the counter and handed it to Xiaoyou, which contained the purple elf egg with colorful spots. "Please handle it carefully."

"Oh..." Xiaoyou took the jar and held it carefully in her arms. It feels like this jar is similar to the one used to soak specimens in formalin...?

"When the elf hatches, remember to use the elf ball to tame it." Miss Joy, who didn't know what Xiaoyou was thinking, added next to her, "I hope a healthy and cute elf can be hatched!"

"Haha, thank you..." Xiaoyou hugged the jar and smiled happily.

Just be healthy, forget about being cute...

————Shadow Hook————

After leaving Stone Town, Xiaoyou held the elf egg in her arms, put the conservation jar in the backpack behind her, let Gengar float in front of her, and walked on the forest road leading to the next town.

[Side mission: New life: hatch unknown elf eggs. Reward: free attribute +1, money +600, (available for hatched elves) random skill learner x1]

【精灵蛋剩余孵化时间：23小时。孵化期间精灵蛋不能放入系统物品栏；进行小精灵对战增加孵化时间30分钟/次；高速/剧烈运动增加孵化时间2小时/次；直接接触精灵蛋时减少孵化时间30%；为蛋壳做清洁保养减少孵化时间1小时/次（6小时内仅生效一次）……】

Although the rewarded attribute points are pitifully few, the reward is quite a lot of money, plus a ghost-type skill that the hatched elf will definitely use - Gengar was very affectionate towards this purple easter egg and wanted to hug it. From the way he licked it twice, it can basically be inferred that it is a ghost-type elf egg...

As a result, Xiaoyou had no choice but to give up his Duduli and Bi Diao bicycles and walk honestly on his feet; the wild experience points he encountered on the road - I mean the wild elves, he had no choice but to let go...

Xiaoyou was very stressed about this: "I haven't done my daily routine for a long time..."

"Kou Jie, Kou Jie, Kou Jie!" Gengar's mood was much higher than that of its owner. It screamed and floated back and forth, and from time to time it surrounded Xiaoyou. To be precise, it was Dan Zhuan in Xiaoyou's arms. The last lap made Xiaoyou even more stressed: How does it feel to have a fly constantly circling around you? And this fly is almost as tall as a man!

In this way, despite the pressure, after trekking for a whole morning, Xiaoyou finally found something that could divert his attention: a white-haired little old man sitting on the roadside.

"Ahem!" The old man with thick hair and beard covering his face except for a big nose stopped Xiaoyou who was passing by, "Trainer girl over there, please wait a moment."

"Well, what's the matter?" Xiaoyou frowned, "And I'm a teenager!"

"Well, let's listen to the sound of this flute anyway..." The old man ignored Xiaoyou's protest, took out a flute decorated with elf balls from behind and started playing it——

"Dip-dip-dip-" The flute sounded with a simple melody, but it sounded inexplicably soothing.

"Kou Jie..." It seemed that even Gengar was affected by the sound of the flute, and fell to the ground with a relaxed expression on his face.

"Didi——" After the song was finished, the old man stretched out his hand in a rather disgraceful manner: "Okay, just pay for the performance and use food."

"...What!" Xiaoyou was a little surprised, "Isn't it free?"

"Hmph!" The old man snorted twice, "You're lucky to hear the sound of my flute!"

"Real, okay..." Xiaoyou frowned and reluctantly opened her backpack and rummaged around. "Although it sounds good, I feel like I'm being forcefully bought and sold..."

[Listen to the music of the Elf Flute, and the hatching time of the Elf Egg will be reduced by 2 hours. 】

huh?

"Ah, this dear old grandpa!" Xiaoyou's attitude immediately turned 180 degrees, and he said in an almost sweet voice, "The flute sound you just played was so wonderful! Can you play another one? !”

"Of course, I will prepare the performance fee!" Xiao Youying Magic (bought temporarily from the system store) took out a lot of food from his backpack: bread, cans, fruits, various snacks...

By the way, Xiaoyou originally planned to give only one compressed biscuit...

"Oh, so many!" Although his expression was hidden by his hair, the old man's voice revealed a hint of excitement. "It's rare to meet a child who understands music so well, so I will make an exception and play another song..."

"Drip-drip-"

[Listen to the music of the Elf Flute, Elf

Egg hatching time reduced by 2 hours. Listening to the flute within the next 24 hours has no effect. 】

"Thank you, grandpa!" Although the egg cannot be hatched directly here, Xiaoyou is very satisfied with the reduction of 4 hours.

"Haha, you're welcome!" The old man was in a good mood, "This food is enough for me to survive for a few days..."

……

Saying goodbye to the old man who played the flute, Xiaoyou continued walking along the road and soon found a small town.

"Let's go in and have a rest, and take care of the egg by cleaning it..." Xiaoyou made up her mind and walked into the town, but soon discovered some strange places...

There were basically no pedestrians, and in some shops selling food on the roadside, the products were not only sparsely displayed, but the prices were also ridiculously expensive: a piece of ordinary white bread actually cost 200 yuan?

[Beep! New market conditions have been detected, and the prices of related items in the system store have been updated. 】The system prompt that suddenly sounded made Xiaoyou startled. I clicked into the store and saw that the price of bread in the store had also risen to 160 yuan - it seems that this outrageous price will not fall until I find a town with normal food prices...

"You can't be such a cheater!" Xiaoyou knelt down decisively, "I haven't eaten yet, Hun Dan..."

"This uncle!" Xiaoyou desperately grabbed a passerby who was passing by. "What's going on in this town? Food prices are so ridiculously expensive?"

"...There's nothing we can do." His eyes narrowed into slits, making people wonder if he was related to Xiaogang. The uncle shook his head, "The water source in this town was cut off ten days ago. There is nothing we can do about raising food prices if we try to grow grain..."

"what?"

The uncle took Xiaoyou to the outside of the town, pointed to a dry ditch and said: "This is usually a river, the water source of the whole town. But ten days ago, the water began to gradually dry up, and then it became what it is now. Look."

[Special daily tasks: Investigate water sources. Solve the water source problem in Thorn Town. Reward: Money +200, Skill Learner: Sleep]

"Okay! I'll go to the upper reaches of the river to investigate the water source problem!" Not only for the two hundred yuan and strange skills, but also for the price in the system store, Xiao Youyi accepted the task without hesitation.

"Is this good?" The uncle seemed a little moved, "Help us strangers..."

"As an elf trainer, it is natural to help others!"

……

After walking along the riverbed for about ten minutes, what Xiaoyou saw was a large green thorn that blocked the way.

"You're just a thorn, do you want to be the only one in my footsteps?" Xiaoyou smiled, looked around, and threw out several elf balls with one hand, "Heiluga, Nine Tails, Iron Shell!"

"Heiluka, Nine Tails, use jet flames!" Xiaoyou waved his hand and pointed at the thorn bushes, "The armored shell uses freezing light on the edge of the thorn bushes. I don't want to cause a forest fire!"

With the flames clearing the way, Xiaoyou easily passed through the thorny jungle and arrived at the source of the river.

"Uh, this is..." Xiaoyou looked at the huge elf who was sleeping soundly in front of him and was as fat as a ball, sweating profusely. "Is this the reason for this pain in the balls?"

It turned out that a Kirby beast was sitting at the source of the water source, blocking the water source...

"I see, so it's all you need to do to get the Kirby out of the water?" Xiaoyou touched her chin, "No wonder the skill rewarded by the mission is sleeping... strange power!"

"Oh!" The muscular man with four arms shouted, posing like a bodybuilder...

"Strange power, use physical enhancement twice in a row!" Xiaoyou ordered, "Then move Kirby!"

"Oh!" After hearing this, Guai Li put on a bodybuilding pose, with veins popping out all over his body, and his body immediately kicked around twice. Afterwards, Guaili walked up to Kirby, grabbed Kirby firmly with all four limbs and arms, then shouted loudly, lifted Kirby over his head, and then threw it violently!

"Uh, I'm not asking you to throw it out..." Xiaoyou quickly ran over to take a look. The Kirby beast that was thrown out broke a thorn and two trees. It was leaning head down on the edge of a stone, still whirring. Asleep...

"Huh..." Xiaoyou breathed a sigh of relief - not because he was afraid of hurting Kirby, but because he was afraid that the recent battle would increase the hatching time of the elf eggs in his hands...

After removing the Kirby beast, the water still did not flow out. It turns out that there are a lot of thorns growing at the source of the water source, blocking the water source...

"Small question..." Xiaoyou stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers confidently, "Heiluga, Kyuubi..."
