Pokémon Beyond Mountains and Seas

Chapter 133 Zi’s hometown, Yinyu Village

Yu Shanhai left Capital Falls and headed towards Ruoye Town. On the way, he encountered a fork in the road. There was construction on the road there, so Yu Shanhai took the road to the valley. There was a village in the valley called Yinyu Village because it was surrounded by mountains. Water vapor rises with the ground and forms orographic rain, so it is difficult to have sunny days in rainy villages.

"It's strange, we can't grow food here, so why are there still people living here?" Yu Shanhai held an umbrella.

"Boom." A muffled sound came from a few dozen meters away from Yu Shanhai.

"What's wrong?" Yu Shanhai looked over.

"Are you okay?" Yu Shanhai walked over and found a small ditch there. A girl was sitting in the ditch. Looking at the traces on the edge of the ditch, it seemed that the girl had just fallen.

"It's okay." The girl lowered her head and struggled to get up.

"Let me help you." Yu Shanhai walked down cautiously and reached out to help the girl.

"Thank you." After the girl tried again and couldn't stand up, she took Yu Shanhai's hand and stood up.

"Zi? Why are you here?" Yu Shanhai looked at the girl in front of him, isn't this Zi?The girl who quit the Youth Cup midway and was never found by Red and Green was Zi.

"It's you, Yu Shanhai." Zi smiled awkwardly.

"Why did you come to the Chengdu area?" Yu Shanhai asked.

"My home is here." Zi said awkwardly.

"Oh, Chilu has been looking for you. Why did you suddenly stop participating in the competition? Chilu said that you never said where you lived, and you didn't tell him when you left." Yu Shanhai asked.

"Really?" Zi lowered her head.

"Go back and change your clothes quickly. Your clothes are all wet." Yu Shanhai said.

"If you don't mind, why don't you sit at my house and rest for a while? It looks like it's going to rain harder again." Zi said.

"Okay." Yu Shanhai nodded.

Later, Yu Shanhai followed Zi to Zi's home. Zi's home was very dilapidated. It was the dilapidated house in the entire Yinyu Village. It only had one living room, one room, and one bathroom.

"Sit wherever you want, I'll go change clothes." Zi looked at Yu Shanhai's surprised expression and smiled helplessly in her heart. If Chilu saw his own such a broken home, would he have the same expression?

"Okay." Yu Shanhai was a little surprised. How difficult must a family be to be so shabby? There was only a wooden table, a few chairs, and a missing cooking place, and then there was nothing in the living room.

"Ahem." There was a cough from the room Zi walked into, but it didn't sound like Zi's.

"Are you okay?" Yu Shanhai walked outside the door and asked.

"I'm fine, it's my mother who's coughing." Zi said softly.

"Auntie, are you okay? She seems to have a serious cough." Yu Shanhai leaned against the door and said.

"It's okay, it's the same old problem. Don't worry, I'll come out as soon as I finish changing my clothes." Zi said.

"Why don't you move away? The environment here is not good and not conducive to recuperation." Yu Shanhai said as he watched Zi come out after changing her clothes.

"My mother doesn't want to leave, saying that the place my father has guarded all his life cannot be broken with her." Zi smiled bitterly.

"Your dad?" Yu Shanhai guessed that Zi's father had passed away.

"No more. He was swept away during a sudden flash flood. He was finally found at the foot of the mountain. He was no longer there." Zi narrated calmly.

"I'm sorry." Yu Shanhai said quickly.

"It doesn't matter, it's been a long time. My dad used to be the village chief. Then he was gone and the family collapsed. I was only five years old at that time." Zi's sadness was never exposed. Yu Shanhai had never thought about Zi's growing environment before. Is such that.

"Didn't the Youth Cup award a large sum of money to the final nine? Why not renovate the house?" Yu Shanhai asked.

"All of it was used to treat diseases. We didn't have any treatment before because we had no money." Zi shook her head helplessly.

"The rain is about to stop, are you going to Ruoye Town?" Zi added.

"Yeah, yes." Yu Shanhai nodded.

"Why did you go this way? This way is more remote, you should go the other way." Zi was confused.

"The picture book shows that another road is under renovation and cannot be walked." Yu Shanhai smiled bitterly.

"I see, by the way, drink some water." Zi brought the kettle. Although the kettle was simple, it looked very clean.

"Thank you." Yu Shanhai took the water glass handed over by Zi.

"What's the Youth Cup ranking?" Zi Ye took a sip of hot water and said.

"Lin Baiyi is first, I am second, Chilu is third, A Xiu is fourth, Xiao Jing is fifth, Sister Tingting is sixth, you are seventh, Ya Xu is eighth, and Xia Luo Min is ninth." Yu Shanhai said.

"It's such a pity for Xia Luomin." Zi said regretfully. Everyone in the Youth Cup knew about Xia Luomin's accidental death.

"It's all because I'm not strong enough." Yu Shanhai blamed himself.

"That's not what I meant. People cannot be resurrected after death. Since you survived, you have to live well, right? The dead are no longer here, but the living still have to live well." Zi smiled slightly.

"Yeah." Yu Shanhai nodded.

"Why don't you contact Chilu?" Yu Shanhai asked.

"I have never told Chilu what my family is like. I'm afraid Chilu can't accept this. After all, it's wrong to be in a wrong family." Zi's long-standing emotions were slowly released by Yu Shanhai's question.

"Although I don't understand love, since Chilu likes you, I definitely won't care about this." Yu Shanhai said.

"Even if he doesn't mind, his family and the outside world will look down on Chilu because of me. I am content. Chilu has been with me for the past three years. I am really content. I knew Chilu when I first started traveling. Green, Red Green has been with me for three years. For me, it’s enough, I don’t have any more expectations." Zi said lightly, sadness also passed through the air, Yu Shanhai also suddenly thought of Laura on the boat, and heard that Laura on the boat My family is in Sinnoh, am I worthy of Lola Funakami?

"You are No. 7 in the Youth Cup. You are already very strong at your age." Yu Shanhai comforted.

"There are also many people who did not participate in the Youth Cup. Did you know? No. 3 on this year's freshmen list is a 16-year-old girl. Her strength is far above you and me. There are others. The Youth Cup cannot be used as a measure of strength. On the plus side, the Fengyun Freshman Ranking cannot be used either, because there are many unborn trainers who are not on it," Zi said.

"I know." Yu Shanhai suddenly choked up at Zi's words. Ever since he won No. 2 in the Youth Cup and ranked [-]th on the Freshman List, he has been inflated. He always felt that he had reached a very good level. .

"The rain stopped." After a while, Zi said.

"Okay, see you next time." Yu Shanhai didn't know how to persuade Zi. Zi's ideas were already deeply ingrained and were not something Yu Shanhai could persuade. Maybe Zi was willing to do this?

"Hmm!" Yu Shanhai and Zi walked out of the house holding umbrellas, and saw a dog-shaped Pokémon standing on the hillside in the distance.

"That's it!" Zi looked at the blue Pokémon and said excitedly.

??Well, I got the effects of sword dance and meditation wrong before. Please forgive me. There are too many previous chapters so I won’t change them.
