Pokémon: I have a Pokémon too!

The next morning, there was a knock on the door of the cottage.

The butler opened the door quickly and did not keep Qi Jiating waiting for long.

"You're here so early, won't it delay training?" Shen Xiqing hurriedly finished her breakfast. She thought Qi Jiating would be late.

Although being her tour guide can barely be considered a day off, these fighters basically cannot stop their daily training for even a day.

"I'm used to getting up early, and I've already finished my practice. I thought you usually get up pretty early for your morning practice, so I just came over."

It is now past six in the morning, and most of the people in Chongshan Town have already gotten up and started their morning exercises.

"Do you want to do morning exercises? I can take you there again."

There is no other training task today, so it would be good to do some general training to stretch your muscles.

"Is there a flowing river nearby? Or a large frozen lake would be fine too. Mienshao needs a larger space to move around."

If Minassery goes into the small heated swimming pool in the backyard, the water will probably overflow.

"Yes, we can just go up the mountain along the river to the gym, but then we'll have to wake up Yan Zixin as well."

"There is a big lake next to the town. There are many fishing holes left by fishermen on the lake. If we expand them a little, the Minas will be able to get in."

I don’t know if Yan Zixin has woken up at this time. They had originally planned to go to the fighting gym last and walk around the town today. It’s not appropriate to change the itinerary suddenly.

So Qi Jiating took Shen Xiqing to the frozen lake.

The sun had not yet risen, but the dark surface of the lake was still bright, illuminating the tents of several fishermen.

From a distance, you can see the shadows of several people doing warm-up activities.

"Can you walk on ice?" Qi Jiating held Shen Xiqing's hand and stood in front of the ice. Most people would feel uneasy when they stepped on ice for the first time.

"I don't have much experience." Shen Xiqing did not refuse the kindness.

In fact, when Xue Shan and Fang Yueqin had their final confrontation, they were in an ice valley, where both the land and the lake were covered in ice.

But at that time she was wearing boots from the I organization, which were professionally anti-slip for a hundred years. She didn't focus on the ice and was lucky enough not to get injured.

The shoes she was wearing now were still within the anti-slip range of ordinary human research and did not contain any of the black technology of the I organization.

I don’t know when the alliance will be able to put all those cracked black technologies into use openly. Only then will it truly benefit mankind.

"It's okay. I'll teach you. If you're afraid of falling, you can use the penguin walk."

Qi Jiating demonstrated what the penguin walk is.

Lean your center of gravity forward, bend your knees slightly, and walk in small steps with your feet slightly turned outward, making you look like a penguin walking.

This way of walking can effectively prevent slipping and is safer for people who rarely walk on ice but want to try it.

Shen Xiqing tried to take a few steps. Although he was a little slow and looked a little dull, he walked very steadily.

After learning a new way of walking, Shen Xiqing's eyes lit up. She looked up at Qi Jiating, only to see that her face was red from trying to hold back her laughter.

Little penguins and the like are so cute.

From Qi Jiating's perspective, Shen Xiqing was like a little penguin carefully learning to walk, and after learning, he would proudly raise his head to ask for praise and recognition.

Sure enough, it’s more interesting to see outsiders from the south who have rarely seen snow.

"What weird things are you thinking about?" Shen Xiqing looked at Qi Jiating subtly with a silly smile. Did she look weird?

Qi Jiating turned her face away guiltily, then after she adjusted her expression, she turned back and said righteously, "It's nothing. Next, I'll teach you how to fall on the ice correctly."

The most important lesson that everyone who goes out on the ice should learn is how to reduce the damage they suffer if they fall on the ice.

"Falling backwards can cause great damage to our coccyx, and falling forwards can make our wrists and elbows more vulnerable."

"The easier and quicker way to react to a challenge is to lean sideways, which prevents injury to our vulnerable parts."

It is difficult for untrained humans to resist the subconscious action of using their palms and elbows to support themselves against the ground for protection, but they can still do it by slightly adjusting the direction of falling.

Shen Xiqing kept this important point in mind. It takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone. If the injury is serious, her progress in cultivation will be slowed down.

After writing down a few tips and precautions for walking on the ice, Qi Jiating took Shen Xiqing, who was walking like a penguin, to a tent.

"Are you asleep, Uncle Qian?" Qi Jiating shouted in front of the tent, and immediately cursing sounds came from the tent.

"Why are you shouting so loudly? You scared all my fish away." Uncle Qian had deep dark circles under his eyes, and it was obvious that he had not slept all night because he was fishing.

"You didn't catch any fish all night, and you can't blame me? Besides, you stayed up all night. I'll tell Auntie on my way back."

Qi Jiating only took a quick glance and saw the empty fish barrel in the tent.

"Bullshit, I caught it! It's just that I was soft-hearted, so I let it go right after I caught it."

Uncle Qian blocked the entrance of the tent inconspicuously, trying to cover up his crime.

Qi Jiating just smiled and didn't poke the old man's fragile heart again. He would be scolded by his aunt when he got home anyway.

"I'm not going to argue with you any more. I need you to help my friend expand a fishing hole. Her spirit still needs training."

Uncle Qian's eyes swept over Shen Xiqing. This girl was really pretty, but her prettyness was not enough for him to help.

The day before yesterday, Lao Wang from next door came to him and showed off a 1.2-meter-long, 4-jin blue-striped wild bass.

He was so excited that he rushed here with his fishing gear early yesterday morning. He fished for a whole day and night, but ended up catching nothing.

He was caught working all night early in the morning and had to be scolded by his wife when he got home. He was not willing to work without some benefits.

He raised his eyebrows, turned the corners of his mouth downwards, turned his head away and snorted without saying anything.

Shen Xiqing looked at Qi Jiating hesitantly. Was he dissatisfied with her or something?

When Qi Jiating saw that the old man was still putting on airs, she followed his wishes and spoke.

"Everyone in our town knows that Uncle Qian is the best at digging fishing holes and the safest ones. No one else can match your standards."

"My friend came to Chongshan for the first time. When he said he wanted to come to the Ice Lake for training, I immediately thought of you. After all, you are the first person to dig a hole in the ice."

Qi Jiating's praise was beautiful, and Uncle Qian was happy and a little proud to hear it.

Shen Xi coaxed the old man with a knowing look in his eyes, "This is my first time on the ice lake, and I have never seen such a scene before. Your help will help a young man like me to broaden my horizons."

After hearing enough flattery and regaining his face, Mr. Qian no longer wanted any other benefits and directly dug a big hole for Shen Xiqing.
