Elf, I am really a farmer

The first ones to discover Wen Qi's return were the Bobos patrolling in the sky.

Their joyful cries quickly spread throughout the farm, letting every Pokémon on the farm know of Wenqi's return.

As soon as Wen Qi arrived at the door of the villa, he saw Pokémon including the Pidgeot couple, the Sandslash couple, Melissa, and Mantis waiting there.

Wenhua siblings and their mother had already been waiting there to welcome them, and the scene was warm and lively.

When the Pokémon saw Wenqi, they all surrounded him excitedly, as if they were welcoming a long-lost relative.

Even the beautiful flowers, which had been a little cold towards Wen Qi before, were now circling around Wen Qi, as if expressing their longing for him for many days.

The Chuanshan King and his wife kept staring at Wen Qi and circled around him, as if expressing their closeness and love for Wen Qi in this way.

Upon seeing this, Wen Qi released his little Sandshrew and reunited the family.

The Pidgeot couple seemed relatively reserved. After all, they were not Wenqi's Pokémon, but farm staff.

However, even so, they expressed their welcome and respect for Wenqi with their eyes.

The giant mantis stood aside like a loyal guard, motionless, as if it didn't see Wen Qi's return.

However, Wen Qi keenly captured the expectation and joy inadvertently revealed in its eyes.

Wen Qi knew that although this arrogant guy appeared reserved on the surface, he was actually eager to be close to him in his heart.

So Wen Qi took the initiative to walk over and hug the giant mantis.

This action surprised the surrounding Pokémon. They seemed to have not expected Wen Qi to be so proactive in hugging Mantis.

The giant mantis seemed a little shy because of this sudden intimacy, and its body seemed to become even redder.

After greeting the Pokémon, Wenqi turned to the Wenhua siblings and their mother and asked them about the latest situation in the village.

Although the conversation on the phone was brief, many things cannot be explained in just a few words.

Therefore, Wenqi needs to personally understand the specific situation of the village in order to better contribute to the development of the village.

After listening to Wenhua's story, Wenqi asked Wenhua to settle down on the farm with her mother. He decided to go to the old village chief to learn more about the village.

When I arrived at the old village chief's house, I found that he was not at home.

Wen Qi asked the neighbors and learned that the old village chief was leading the village patrol team to inspect the village at that time.

Although Wenjia Village has a small population, it covers a vast area, and it is not easy to find the old village chief who is patrolling.

So, Wen Qi picked up the phone and dialed the number of the old village chief. The call was quickly connected, and Wen Qi told the old village chief that he had returned to the village and asked about the old village chief's specific location.

The old village chief was a little surprised to hear Wen Qi's voice. He didn't expect him to come back so soon. He told Wen Qi his location and hung up the phone.

Wen Qi rode his goat mount quickly to where the old village chief was.

From a distance, I could see seven or eight people following the old village chief, each of them accompanied by one or two Pokémon.

The strength of these Pokémon is mostly around level 20-30. Although they are not particularly powerful, they are enough to cope with general challenges.

The old village chief had a giant vine as his companion. Wen Qi was a little surprised by the giant vine, because giant vines were quite rare.

Although many vine monsters have been discovered, only a few can evolve into giant vines.

Moreover, there has been no conclusion on how vine monsters evolve into giant vines, so not many people cultivate vine monsters.

I didn’t expect that the old village chief actually had such a magical companion.

Wen Qi carefully observed the information of the giant vine and found that it was actually a dark yellow Pokémon, and it had broken through the limitations of its qualifications and reached elite level strength.

Although its level is only 43, being able to break through the limit is already a very rare thing.

Wen Qi felt that it was reasonable for the giant vine to be able to break through the limitations.

After all, the old village chief is in his sixties or seventies, and the giant vine has been following him for at least forty or fifty years.

Even though its qualifications are limited, it is reasonable that it would be able to break through its limitations after such a long period of companionship and nurturing.

Moreover, Grass-type Pokémon are generally long-lived, and those with average strength can live to around seventy years, which is almost the same as the human lifespan.

Pokémon that reach elite level can even live for hundreds of years.

As one of the longest-lived Grass-type Pokémon, Gigantoss is estimated to be in its forties or fifties. Even if its strength does not improve in the future, it can still live for at least another seventy or eighty years.

When the old village chief saw Wen Qi, his eyes were fixed on Wen Qi's mount, the goat.

He was secretly surprised, as he had not noticed before that Wen Qi actually possessed such a powerful Pokémon.

Judging from the momentum, this mount goat is even more powerful than the giant vine beside it.

The old village chief carefully observed his mount and found that although it looked taller and stronger than ordinary goats, it had a familiar aura.

He thought about it carefully and suddenly remembered that this goat was the one that Wenqi's parents once owned.

The old village chief remembered that when Wen Qi's parents brought this lamb mount to the village, it was only at level 10.

Five or six years have passed now, and since Wen Qi's parents passed away two years ago, no one has been raising this mount goat.

However, it is surprising that its strength has become so strong.

The old village chief couldn't help but sigh at Wen Qi's strength, and at the same time he felt fortunate for the village.

With young people like Wenqi in the village, the village’s safety is undoubtedly better guaranteed.

Wen Qi walked up to the old village chief and asked with concern:

"Old village chief, are you in good health? It's really tiring for you to come out on patrol in person at such an old age."

The old village chief looked at Wen Qi with a pleased smile on his face:

"Wenqi, what are you talking about? You know the situation in the village. Most of the young people have gone out to work, and there are not many young and middle-aged people left in the village. In order to protect the safety of the village, we can only arrange patrol teams to patrol the village. I and several other village elders will lead the team to patrol the village, divided into four teams to take turns on duty."

After hearing this, Wen Qi nodded to show his understanding and greeted the old village chief and those uncles and relatives.

These young people who stay in the village are the backbone of the village, and their existence makes Wenqi feel very gratified.

The old village chief continued:

"When we didn't have patrols for the past two days, those Pokémon attacked the villagers several times and caused considerable damage. So starting yesterday, we resumed the patrol system, hoping to reduce the occurrence of such incidents."

Wen Qi's heart tightened after hearing this, as he knew that Pokémon attacking humans was not an isolated case.

In this world, the relationship between humans and Pokémon is both intimate and complex.

Sometimes Pokémon will attack humans for various reasons, and humans need to learn how to coexist peacefully with them.

Under the close defense of the patrol team, the Pokémon that once frightened the villagers seemed to have restrained themselves and no longer came out to disturb the villagers' lives.

After hearing the old village chief's narration, Wen Qi pondered for a moment and said softly:

"Old village chief, my friend in the city sent me news that the city's search team should arrive in our village today to conduct an inspection."

When the old village chief heard the good news, his tense nerves finally relaxed.

The members of the patrol team seemed to have unloaded a heavy burden and breathed a sigh of relief.

They are not professional trainers, and they breed Pokémon mainly to protect the peace of their homeland.

Therefore, despite all their efforts, most of their Pokémon levels only remain in the twenties.

Just as Wen Qi was talking to the old village chief, the goat he was riding suddenly neighed in alert.

Wen Qi immediately noticed something was wrong and quickly interrupted the conversation.

The old village chief and others saw Wen Qi's nervous expression, as well as the abnormal reaction of his goat, and realized the seriousness of the situation, and they all quieted down.

Just then, a strange cry broke the silence.

Immediately afterwards, a dozen monkey monsters and three inferno monkeys suddenly appeared in their sight.

Pokémon like Monkey Monster are known for being very aggressive, and many of the attacks that villagers have suffered in the past were caused by them.

And now, this group of monkey monsters seemed to be even more violent. When they saw Wen Qi and others standing in front of them, they immediately became furious and prepared to launch an attack.

Wen Qi quickly took a look at the strength of this group of monkey monsters and found that most of them were around level 20.

The three Infernapes were particularly conspicuous. They were all of yellow caliber. The leader was at around level thirty-five, and the other two were at around level thirty-two.

Wen Qi knew very well that if he had not arrived in time, the village chief and his men would probably be in big trouble today.
