Chapter 31: Companionship
Alone in the wild, except for those who have no heart and lungs, no one dares to rest without a trace of vigilance, and Takumi is naturally no exception.
Even with his eyes closed for a lunch break, Takumi slept very lightly to ensure that he could wake up as soon as possible when something was wrong.
Fortunately, Takumi's lunch break was not disturbed by any situation, which allowed him to relieve his physical fatigue.
Yawning and touching the heads of Rokuo and Little Radha, who had seen him wake up and immediately approach, Takumi took out the two of their Po Balls.
"Thank you for your hard work, take a good rest when you get back to Pokéball, and I'll wake you up at dinner."
"Yo ......"
"Little Lada......"
Pressing his head against the center of the ball, six tails and little Rada were already inside the ball as two red lights flashed.
Takumi's movement on this side naturally woke up the handsome young man who was resting on the other side, and after the two glanced at each other, they began to organize their belongings.
Ten minutes later, Takumi, who had taken a sip of water, put the kettle into his backpack, looked at the handsome young man on the side, thought about it and took the initiative to speak.
"I'm Fujiwara Takumi, and I'm currently going to challenge the gym in Hongyun City, so if I stop by, we can go together."
After all, both of them are ready to set off at this time, and when there is one person by their side, it is impossible for the two of them to not say a word along the way, right?
That kind of scene, it's embarrassing to think about it a little.
The handsome young man glanced at his head and said lightly.
"Call me Ah Cheng! However, I estimate that our companionship will only be two or three days, and I am going to cross through the Red Mist Forest, and if you are a novice, I'm afraid you will honestly follow the road and go far, right? ”
Takumi glanced at Ah Cheng, he didn't expect that this white and tender handsome young man would actually choose the more dangerous Red Mist Forest, but ......
"This way of talking, I really want people to beat him!"
Rolling his eyes, Tuohai slandered in his heart, but his face was silent, just a simple greeting.
"Let's go, it's half past two in the afternoon, we have to hurry up."
Normally, the farther away from the city, the density of wild Pokémon increases, and the probability of encountering wild Pokémon increases.
Not long after Takumi and the handsome boy Ah Cheng set off together, looking at the pile of flaming birds flying towards him in the distant sky, Takumi's face changed drastically.
"Hurry up and find a place to hide!"
Just shouted, Takumi no longer paid attention to Ah Cheng, and quickly ran from the dirt road to the grass on the right, in the process of running, Takumi had already reflexively taken off his backpack, and hurriedly looked for the 'jungle camouflage' he had prepared.
Although the camouflage of dark green with some branches and leaves on it does not match the color of the grass here, Takumi has no more options, and is ready to dive into this camouflage that is 2 meters long and 1.5 meters wide.
However, looking at Ah Cheng, a handsome young man with a panicked face and looking around for a hidden location, Takumi thought for a moment, and then shouted.
"Come over here!"
Ah Cheng, who looked frightened, seemed to grasp the life-saving straw, and quickly came to Tuohai's side, his face was slightly red, and he said 'thank you' in a very low voice.
If it wasn't close enough, Tuo Hai really couldn't guarantee that he would be able to hear this, and he wouldn't be verbose, so he directly spread out the disguise and climbed in with Ah Cheng.
Half a minute later, listening to the sound of a large number of wings fluttering overhead, Takumi who was lying on the grass subconsciously shrunk his neck, and when he could no longer hear the sound of these wings fluttering, Takumi slightly opened a small opening in disguise to observe.
"Get out, those flamingos were just passing by, and now they're gone."
After saying a word to the side of the black hole, Takumi lifted the disguise on his body, licked his somewhat dry lips, and began to clean up the disguise by himself.
"Looking at your attitude of educating juniors before, I thought you were a senior trainer who had a lot of travel experience, but he was not likable in words."
Folding the disguise in a slippery way, Takumi glanced at Ah Cheng, who was standing aside with an embarrassed expression, and said lightly.
"I didn't expect it to be just a hairless newcomer...... Did you know that a guy like you will die very quickly in the wild? ”
His face was blue and red, and the handsome young man Ah Cheng really couldn't find a reason to refute, so he had to glare at Tuohai angrily.
Tucking the folded camouflage into the space backpack, Takumi picked up the backpack again, unveiled the topic plainly, and returned to the road.
"Let's go, try to get a little more before it gets dark, and then find a suitable campsite."
Takuha's indifferent treatment made Ah Cheng breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, and he followed Takumi behind him stupidly and continued to hurry, just peeking at Takuha's back from time to time.
Tuohai is now fourteen years old, and the dominant body is a mature soul, and it is really impossible to do such a thing as fighting with children.
What's more, asking himself, Tuohai felt that if he hadn't had a mature mentality and carefully thought about all kinds of things that might be encountered in the wild, he was afraid that he would not be much better than Ah Cheng if he encountered dangerous performances in the wild.
After escaping the flock of flocks of flaming birds, Takumi and the two seemed to have good luck, and nothing happened until the sun went down.
What makes Takumi even more happy is the discovery of a stream, which means that the campsite in the wild will have a water source, in addition to drinking and cooking, you can also take a comfortable bath.
So, after walking along the stream for some distance, Takumi found a decent clearing, turned back to Ah Cheng, who was barely following him, and said.
"It's a good campsite, if you're okay, you can pitch a tent now, don't tell me you don't even have a tent."
"I'm not so stupid, I still have a tent!" retorted indignantly, Ah Cheng immediately followed the example of Takuha, put down the space backpack, and looked for his tent from it.
Shrugging his shoulders, Takumi threw the two Poké Balls out and commanded Rokuo and Little Rada, who looked delighted.
"Six-tailed, little Lada, clean up the snakes, insects, rats and ants around here, and I'll prepare dinner for you."
The two foodies glanced at each other, each chose a direction, lowered their noses, brightened their eyes, and worked hard to complete the task that Takumi commanded.
Before setting off from Sunshine Town, Takumi had already fumbled in the wild to set up a tent and dig an earthen stove, which sounded simple, and if he couldn't master it, it would definitely be a time-consuming and laborious thing for a novice.
Therefore, after setting up his single tent in less than five minutes, looking at Ah Cheng, who was still struggling with a fancy orange tent next to him, Takumi was also a little helpless.
"This guy doesn't know anything, where did he get the courage to go out and practice......
After observing for a few minutes, looking at the crooked tent that had been barely erected, Takumi couldn't stand it anymore, and kicked the nail out of the ground that was not deep in the ground.
"Ahhh My tent, you ......"
"Don't make a sound, watch well, study hard!"
Lisuo dismantled the tent set up by Ah Cheng, and Takumi carried the tent to another open space, and set up the tent in an orderly manner.
Looking at Tuohai who was erecting the bracket, Ah Cheng stood next to him and didn't know what to say, the previous lofty posture, after his own clumsy performance several times, Ah Cheng couldn't show it, at least he couldn't show it in the face of Tuohai.
Looking at the tent that was gradually taking shape, Ah Cheng suddenly felt that his luck was very good, and on the first day of his trip, he met such a kind person to help him......
But three minutes later, a terrible scream rang out over the clearing.
"Ahhh Why did you tear down my tent again!? ”
Taking out the sapper shovel from the space backpack, Takumi casually waved it in the air a few times, and asked with a strange expression.
"Let you build it yourself? How else do I know if you've learned? ”
Takumi, who was walking into the distance with a sapper shovel, heard the sound of frenzy coming from behind him from time to time, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.
"Who called your tone so bad before? If I don't retaliate, I'm upset......"
……
As night fell, the clouds on the horizon had turned orange, and Takumi, who had gone with Rokuo and Little Rada to find dry firewood, returned to the camp leisurely, and snickered in his heart when he saw the orange tent that had been re-erected.
With Rokuo and Rada gathered around the proposed earthen stove, Takumi put the dry wood and igniters inside, and ordered to Rokuo.
"Six Tails, use a spark to light the dry wood."
"Yo ......"
Sporadic flames erupted from his mouth, and after seeing that the igniter had been lit, the six tails screamed happily, shook their six beautiful tails, and jumped into Takumi's arms.
As time goes on, the aroma of the rice in the pot makes both Lada and Rokuo sniff, and although they have the boutique Pokémon food that Takumi specially purchased, it is also a great choice to change the taste once in a while.
"The one standing in the back, don't worry about me harming you, just move your dishes and chopsticks, and eat dry food on the first day of traveling, it's really miserable."
While laying a tablecloth on the ground, Takumi took out the canned food of various flavors in his backpack and said without looking back.
Ah Cheng, who was looking at this side and sniffing his nose from time to time, snorted softly when he heard Takumi's voice, turned around and walked to his tent.
Not long after, Ah Cheng, who was holding the dishes and chopsticks, came to the tablecloth, and saw the six tails staring at him with big eyes suspiciously, and his face couldn't help but blush slightly.
After lighting a bonfire in the middle of the camp, Takumi, who was sprinkling insect repellent powder around the camp, couldn't help but shake his head when he saw this, this guy who was traveling with him seemed to be a little ......
Not enough guys?
