Pokémon Merry Chaser

At Miss Junsha's place, when we brought back Xiaogang and Xiaozhi, we heard constant complaints along the way.

"I am starving..."

"I still look so tired. I feel like I didn't even get a good rest last night..." ('-w??)

"I'm sorry, brother, for making you worry last night."

......

"Yeah, yeah, don't do this again next time, it's so worrying." Raiden's worried look moved Xiao Gang and Xiao Zhi for a while.

"Hehe~"

The woman had a look of contempt on her face, "You seemed to have had so much fun dancing in the hot spring last night, but because you had forgotten about Xiaozhi and Xiaogang, you didn't want to expose it."

"Let's go. After completing the gym challenge, we can go to the hotel booked by me to rest."

Leiden wasn't worried about these two guys at all. The Xinzhen physique was no joke. It was just that he hadn't eaten all day and hadn't had a good rest all night, so he had to drink a lot of water.

"But, we went to the Red Lotus Gym yesterday, and it was already in ruins."

"I asked everyone around me, but no one knew the whereabouts of the gym leader for a long time..."

Speaking of this, Xiaozhi, who was always excited and optimistic, was also dejected. (???︿???)

"Don't worry, after my investigation, the Red Lotus Gym Leader appears near the ruined gym from time to time." Raiden said this confidently.

"Hey, really!"

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go now!"

Hearing his elder brother's confident words, Xiaozhi had no doubts and immediately rushed to a group of people to lead the way.

"It's really deceiving."

Raiden actually didn't do any research, but Xiaozhi, who regained his confidence after seeing a few words, couldn't help but sigh.

"If only getting along with girls was this easy."

On the way to the gym, Raiden and his party met various tourist groups. The streets were full of people selling Honglian Island-specific items, making them look like a tourist attraction.

After arriving at the destination, Raiden stared blankly at the ruins of the Red Lotus Gym.

Red Lotus Island is famous because its gym leader is Xia Bo, one of the former four kings of the Kanto region. Countless trainers came to challenge one after another, and Red Lotus Island became prosperous.

Now it is completely inconsistent with the appearance of the place that Pokémon trainers dreamed of in the past.

However, Xia Bo looked at the place he had guarded for the rest of his life and was able to develop well without him, so he should be quite happy and comforted.

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from behind.

"My head is cold, my body is warm, what is this?"

Leiden was overjoyed. Isn't the real master coming? He turned around and replied calmly.

"It's an open-air hot spring."

"That's right, that's the right answer."

The visitor had long, elegant brown hair, a thick beard of the same color covering his chin, and wore a pair of antique master sunglasses. He was Xia Bo, the master of the Red Lotus Gym.

"It's that weird old man from yesterday. Just ignore him. He always says some weird things..." Xiaozhi looked at the other person with some disgust.

"It seems that Xiaozhi met Xia Bo yesterday. Maybe he didn't answer the questions he asked, so he failed to challenge the gym successfully."

"Can we have a gym challenge?" Raiden stated his intention directly.

The old man did not answer directly, but asked another question.

"What is it that is so close that you can't see it?"

"It's the eyelids!" Xiaoxia waved her hand to indicate that the problem was too simple. (〃'▽'〃)

"Not bad, the little girl is pretty awesome too!" Xia Bo praised Xiaoxia.

(That’s not necessarily the case. It could be Uncle Xia who is right in front of you.)

Leiden also knew the answer. He was afraid that he might not hold back and ruin the old man's interest, so he said that the gym leader he wanted to challenge was you.

After praising Xiaoxia, the old man with Xia Bo's makeup turned around and looked at a pile of ruins of the gymnasium.

"You guys are late. The Red Lotus Gym Leader closed the gym because he couldn't stand too many tourists coming to challenge for entertainment."

As soon as he heard this, Xiaozhi immediately couldn't stand it and stood up to refute.

"It's strange, uncle, we are not the kind of challengers who are just interested in playing for fun?!"

"The few of us fought desperately and continued to reach Red Lotus Island with great difficulty."

Perhaps because of Xiaozhi's enthusiasm, Xia Bo was relieved.

"You should tell Uncle Xia this sentence."

"Anyway, if you encounter anything that cannot be solved later, you can come to me here." After Xia Bo finished speaking, he handed Xiaozhi a business card.

"Staying in a private home - Mystery..."

Everyone was also curious and gathered around to look at it. They found out that it was a business card advertising a B&B, and everyone complained.

"what the hell..."

"It turns out it's for advertising."

.........

Just when everyone wanted to find Uncle Xia to complain, they found that he had already disappeared.

And Raiden, who had long known the identity of the old man just now, turned into a detective and planned to show off his intelligence in front of everyone.

"No! Who do you think would sell his hotel in front of ruins?"

"If you think about it carefully, it would be more appropriate to go to the bustling streets." Xiaozhi was very considerate and immediately spoke to prove it.

"It's possible that he just passed by here." Xiaoxia thought that Raiden was thinking too much.

"Then the old man just looked at the ruins of the gymnasium, showing nostalgia and sadness in his eyes, and explained it this way."

"So he should be a former staff member or the gym leader."

"Anyway, when we find him again, everything will be clear!"

Seeing everyone speechless and the admiration in the eyes of the two women, Leiden was secretly happy.

"Hmph~ Sample, can't you figure it out with the reference answers?"

"Xiao Zhi, look at the address on the commercial." Xiao Gang reminded him immediately.

"Below is a swing, and above are older brothers and younger brothers chasing each other and jumping around. That's the mystery of a private homestay..."

"Ouch, I have a headache. It's riddles again. Come on, come on!"

Before he finished reading, Xiaozhi started banging his head and complaining of a headache, and hurriedly handed the card to others.

While everyone was still thinking, Raiden's voice sounded slowly.

"Follow me~~"~(￣▽￣~)~

"Eh?!" x4. (#?Д?)!

"Can't you answer this question with your eyes closed?" Raiden looked very proud at this moment.

......

Under the leadership of Leiden, everyone arrived at Xia Bo's B&B smoothly.

"Not bad, it seems that some of you are experts at guessing."

Everyone looked at Raiden with expressions that were natural.

"Hehe~~"

Leiden scratched his head and felt a little embarrassed. After all, he couldn't do it by his own ability.

"Excuse me, what is your relationship with the Red Lotus Gym?" Xiaozhi couldn't wait to ask.

The old man cleared his throat.

"Since you asked the question sincerely."

"Then I will tell you mercifully."

Everyone's expressions. (ー_ー)!!

"Well...it is true that I have a close relationship with the Red Lotus Gym Leader. If you can answer my next question, I will tell you."

"There's a big flood above and a big bathhouse below. If you solve this riddle, you can know the location of the Red Lotus Gym."

There was a sudden crash and everyone fell down.

"Riddles again, oh my god!" Ash complained.

"Follow me~~"~(￣▽￣~)~

"Eh?!" x4. (#?Д?)!

At this moment, Raiden was as bright as a beacon in the dark night.

--boom!

Raiden led everyone to the hot spring, and naturally turned the Gyarados head, followed by a roar of mechanical rotation, and the entrance to the underground gym suddenly appeared in front of them.

——Tap, tap

Everyone went down the stairs step by step.

"Hey, don't you feel that it's getting hotter and hotter?" Xiaoxia kept fanning her with her little hands, hoping that this would alleviate the stuffy feeling.

"Then let me tell you a cold joke." Raiden approached Xiaoxia at this time.

"It is said that a goblin captured a rich man, a prince, and a peasant.

The goblin said: You can use words within four words to express my beauty, and I will let anyone express my satisfaction.

The rich man said: You are as beautiful as a fairy.

The prince said: You have conquered the country and conquered the city.

But in the end only the farmers were released..."

At this point, Leiden deliberately paused his tone, deliberately let it slip, looked at Nazi and Xiaoxia and said.

"Do you know what the farmer said?"

The two women were also aroused by Leiden and asked, "What did the farmer say?"

Leiden put his head close to Nazi and Xiaoxia's ears and spoke softly in a voice that could only be heard by the two of them.

"The farmer said three words... I was confused."

After saying that, he playfully blew into the ears of the two women.

"Ouch! You are so annoying~"

"You're really bad if you don't show up for a whole day!"

The two women said coquettishly.

Xiaoxia symbolically beat Leiden's chest with her hands, while Nazi's jade hands pinched Leiden's waist tightly and groaned.

Then Leiden held the two women in his arms and said with a wicked smile: "Okay, okay, I won't make trouble anymore. I'll treat you to a hot spring later."

This scene was all seen by Xiaogang, who was biting his handkerchief and his eyes were full of tears.

"It's awesome, it's awesome... I learned it, so I have to write it down in a notebook."

And Xiaozhi, a straight man who has mastered swordsmanship to the top, also discovered his important goal.

"Is it Menye?!"

A huge stone door appeared at the end of the road.

"Okay, let me be the first to challenge!" Xiaozhi eagerly opened the door.

"Hey, wait..." Before Raiden could finish his words, he heard a sound.

sizzle~

Xiaozhi touched the iron handle on the stone door, and then the smell of roasted meat wafted~~

"Ahhhh~! Huh~huh~it hurts." Xiaozhi was burned by the hot stone door, and he shook his burned hands wildly.

"What's going on………!"

---boom!

The stone door seemed to be touched before slowly opening it.

"Plop, plop"

What is in front of you is the rolling magma, and the air is twisting and turning visible to the naked eye because of the high temperature.

An extraordinary Pokémon battle arena appeared in front of us. This battle arena was suspended above the boiling magma. The iron chains at the four corners were tightly fixed on the surrounding stone walls. Bubbles floated from time to time in the magma, and even more... It's chilling.

"Wow!!!"

"This is the most heroic fighting venue I have ever seen." Xiaozhi exclaimed.

(Well, it is indeed very cool.) Raiden did not deny this. He was really surprised when he first saw it.

"Welcome, everyone."

Following Xia Bo's words, the spotlights around the venue lit up, giving everyone a sense of oppression.

"Strange grandpa?" Xiaozhi was very confused when the old man ran to the other side of the ring.

Uncle Xia ignored everyone and focused on asking questions on his own.

“What’s the thing that you can easily say when you don’t know, but can’t say when you know it?”

"Wig." Xiaoxia, a little expert at guessing puzzles, answered quickly.

"When you don't know the other person, you dare to bring up this topic, but after you know it, you don't dare to talk about it."

"Awesome!" Xiaozhi and Xiaogang were convinced. (?__)?

"That's right, that's right!"

Xia Bo finally took off his disguise, revealing his pale hair and... the Mediterranean Sea on his head, and officially appeared in front of everyone to introduce himself.

"I am Xia Bo, the trainer of Red Lotus Island!"

"It's a rare challenge to accept. Which of you will come first?"

"Me, me, me!" Xiaozhi was afraid that his elder brother would compete with him, so he quickly stood up and shouted.

"Xia Bo is one of the top four kings. He is good at using fire Pokémon. It will be more advantageous to use water Pokémon." Raiden simply told Xiaozhi the information about his opponent.

"I know!"

Xiaozhi couldn't stand being treated like a mother by the people around him, so he answered extremely impatiently.

In the battle with Xia Bo, Xiaozhi encountered a series of troubles. First, Squirtle was knocked down by Nine Tails, then the reverse-attribute Pidgeot sent to fight against the armored tyrannosaurus failed, and finally Pikachu was attacked by the duck-billed fire beast's fierce attack. The lower body was severely burned.

Ash didn't want Pikachu to get hurt, so he voluntarily gave up and walked down the battle ring in despair.

"Ah...it's my turn." Raiden stretched and walked to the ring.

"I don't want to bully the elderly~"

"Xiao Gang, go and take all Xia Bo's Pokémon to the Pokémon Center to recover their strength."

"Okay!" Xiaogang immediately took action, thinking that Mr. Lei would be in a good mood and teach him some real moves.

"Haha, young people are really competitive." Xia Bo's eyes were full of praise.

Out of respect for the strength of the King.

Raiden didn't want to bully the Xia Bo Pokémon who had just fought, so he suggested.

"Uncle Xia, you have nothing to do if you have nothing to do. Since you like to test others so much, why don't you try my new guessing game?"

"Oh? New guessing game." Xia Bo's interest was immediately aroused.

"Then let me tell you one thing first."

Cough~cough!

"I have something that is longer than all the men here. What is it?"

After saying this, Leiden hinted at Uncle Xia with a man's understanding expression, and gestured with his hand to show the length of the dough stick.

"Isn't this bad (￣?￣) in public..."

Xia Bo also understood it instantly, but his strong desire to win in the guessing method also wanted him to tell the answer.

"What is it?" Nazi asked with a pure face.

"You and Xiaoxia have met before!" Leiden looked like one of us is following the other, stop pretending.

"Oh ho ho...?!"

Xiaozhi and Xia Bo looked between the three of them as if they had discovered a new world.

"Don't talk nonsense..." Xiaoxia blushed, and her little guessing expert showed her talent again, and she seemed to understand what this bad guy was hinting at.

"You're not good~~" Leiden poked Xiaoxia's head with his hand.

"I'm talking about the name Zivchi Redden."

(Brothers, just laugh about it, don’t get into trouble, hehe~)

He leaned towards Xiaoxia's ear and whispered again: "What were you thinking about just now? Could it be...?"

"Ouch! I hate it." Xiaoxia pushed Leiden away.

The men present were very excited to see Redden teasing his girlfriend.

"Hey hey"(?w?)hiahiaxiax2

"Do you know who was the most famous and recorded free technician in ancient times?"

Regarding this blind spot in knowledge, Xia Bo quickly shook his head.

"The answer is that the sun is shining over the mountains!" (?w?)hiahiahia

"Awesome, awesome." (?__)? Uncle Xia was convinced, surprised by this new way of guessing (driving).

Raiden took advantage of the situation and continued.

“Something is dry before you put it in, and it’s wet when you take it out, and it also gives you a warm feeling of satisfaction.

"Hitting one person's daily activities." He raised his eyebrows at Xiaoxia again.

"I hate it, I won't guess!"

Xiaoxia turned her head aside. Although she wanted to know the answer, she just didn't want to deal with this bad guy right now.

.........

Time passed slowly like this.

Leiden waited for Xiaogang to challenge with Xia Bo's Pokémon that had recovered its strength.

ps: Thanks for reading, brothers. (*?︶?*).?.:*?
