Chapter 40: On the Farthest Distance in the World!

After that, Maki and his party followed the old man Fuji to the building called the Fuji Old People's Home, and the old man Fuji did not mention the strange things before, but first told the story of a young girl......

"Wow~ What a touching story!" The sundae of the three was the first to hear it with tears in his eyes, and he was so moved that he was moved.

Xiao Ai's reaction is relatively small, but her eyes are not as cold as before, but a little soft.

As for Zhenwei, of course, he didn't feel much of it. One is that the protagonist in the story is a girl, and Zhenwei can't have a sense of substitution, and the second is that when people who can already watch soap operas as a side dish in a meal, this kind of poignant love story is just average.

The story told by the old man Fuji is not very vivid, but it may be the impression of the painting before, but it sounds vivid. The story is probably as follows: a young girl's lover was taken to war, and the girl waited for many years for him to return, and finally the legend has it that the long wait turned him into a fossil. Among them, the touching atmosphere should be hinted at the tragic ending of the girl's lover who has died in battle, and the girl's unrepentant waiting is touching.

"Now, Shi-chan, let's go to the Maiden's Gorge by the way, okay?Although I've been to Rampurchi Island for a vacation, I haven't heard of such a Maiden's Gorge nearby!"

"There, I remember there were neither gyms nor powerful trainers. What was surprising was Xiao Ai, who had not said a word before, and apparently she did not agree with this opinion. In her heart, her brother's goal is to participate in the league competition, so she can't do more without doing superfluous things, although she is also a little interested there.

"But there is a beach and a sea, but it is a must-have trip for many tourists!" Sundae didn't notice that Xiao Ai had already put forward opinions from the standpoint of his companions, but he just tried to persuade Zhenwei to accompany him.

"Sundae, you wouldn't have done that before, would you. Zhenwei glanced at the sundae, and the other party immediately understood. Now that he accidentally poked the sundae in the weakness of Zhenwei, he didn't know what to say all of a sudden.

Zhenwei looked a little disappointed when he arrived at the sundae, thinking that it was still early for the start of the league tournament anyway, so it shouldn't be anything if he traveled by the way. Of course, the premise is that you don't go into the water, and the prices there are not too high.

"If you have some free time after challenging the Dead Leaf Gym, let's consider going back and having a look. In the end, Zhenwei still compromised, and when Sundae heard Zhenwei say this, he swept away his previous loss and smiled.

Hearing what her brother said, Xiao Ai didn't say anything anymore, just thinking about what she could do there.

"Ahem, do you still want to hear it?" Seeing that he told a story, a few people chatted to themselves, even with the old man's qi cultivation kung fu, he couldn't sit still, and interrupted loudly.

"Uh...... I'm sorry. Please keep talking!" Zhenwei was the first to apologize, and Sundae knew that he was a little carried away, and apologized embarrassedly.

"I tell the reason for that story just to let you know what happened. Do you have any questions?"

"So, may I tell you that we have encountered the ghost of that girl?" asked Zhenwei the crucial question, which was something that had been confusing everyone.

"It's very likely, but I don't have a way to prove it right now. Although I did bring back the painting with the intention of studying ghosts, I didn't have much hope for it. For Zhenwei's straightforward question, the old man Fuji explained one by one with a calm face.

"Then why are you studying ghosts? We heard at the Pokémon Shelter that you should be a Pokémon researcher, and it feels like you're not the same researcher I've met before. Sundae was still a little reserved about the elders, and asked softly.

"Words about this. I did use to be a Pokémon researcher, but you may not know what I'm working on. Old man Fuji said with some nostalgia.

At this time, the three of them also focused their eyes on the face of the old man Fuji, and saw him say quietly: "I used to study a legendary elf, its name is Dream. ”

"Dream?!" Zhenwei never expected that the old man Fuji was studying a dream that had a relationship with him.,It doesn't seem to be talked about in the anime.。 But what does fantasy have to do with studying souls?

"Yes. A researcher once proposed that all the elves in this world have genes from dreams, and I have studied this proposition. At that time, due to the lack of materials, we took out some genes left over from the dream and matched them with all the elves, but the results were all matched. The old man Fuji also chattered a little excitedly when he mentioned the research.

"This, that's it. What does that have to do with what you're researching? Seeing the old man Fuji who seemed to be burning, Sundae asked a little weakly.

"At that time, we were paired with a ghost pokemon in their genes. However, it is well known that the form of the ghost pokemon is not quite the same as other pokemon. The old man calmed down a little and sat back in his seat.

"In other words, do you want to know how the ghost elf was born?" Zhenwei suddenly understood what the other party meant, and then asked.

"Hmm. So on my way back from meeting an old friend the other day, I heard about it at the Jungjou Gorge. It took a lot of effort to borrow this painting from the girl's shrine.,I didn't expect to attract a talking elf.,It's really ......" said that the old man Fuji here also has some aftertaste.,Maybe for researchers, the unknown thing is so full of attraction.。

"You may have said 'guardian spirits' before. At this time, Xiao Ai also suddenly asked.

"Well, that's true. When I was thinking about the birth of ghost elves, I came up with a hypothesis. It is assumed that the birth of ghost elves may be like the existence of ghosts in human stories, born from dead elves. ”

"Is that why you're staying in this town?" Zhenwei also remembered at this time, in the Alliance's sphere of influence, the status of the researcher was still quite high, so he wouldn't live in a rural place like Ziyuan Town. Of course, there are people like Dr. Ohki.

"Part of it. My former elf and daughter also passed away here, so I have developed some unique feelings for this place. Old man Fuji sighed a little sadly when he said this.

"That's right. Can you tell us what the results of our research are?" Zhenwei asked bluntly, looking a little excited, despite the other party's feeling of reminiscing about the past.

After all, in the previous life, there was also the opposition between materialism and idealism, and the ghost theory has not been proven. However, in this world, it is still very possible to have zài, after all, Zhenwei is a living example.

"This one. Legend has it that at the beginning of this world, three legendary elves were born, representing the will, knowledge and feelings of humans and elves. If I have to say what a ghost might be, I personally think that it is an obsession formed by feelings, so that the will cannot be eliminated by the world and a ghost is born. Old Man Fuji was not angry at Matsu's recklessness, but only quoted a legend to illustrate his opinion.

"Huh, wait a minute. Do you mean that humans may give birth to ghosts when they die, and ordinary elves may give birth to ghost elves when they die?" asked Sundae with a sudden realization.

"You may be misunderstood. At present, there is no real Yàn to prove that elves will become ghost elves when they die, and people are not necessarily ghosts when they die, but may also be ghost elves. "Old man Fuji was a little unsympathetic to the way the sundae was understood.

"So that means that some of the ghost-based elves may have been transformed from dead humans?" asked Sundae in surprise.

"I don't rule out the possibility of this. For example, the ghost you saw before, I suspect that it may be the embodiment of the girl's obsession, and of course it may also be the result of the girl's lover after her death. The old man Fuji analyzed with the cautious attitude of the researcher.

"No, it won't be!" cried Sundae with a more exaggerated look than before, a little unnatural on his face.

"What's wrong?" asked Zhenwei kindly.

"According to the theory just now, Shi Jiang's little demon and Xiao Ai's crystal lamp spirit may also be transformed by human beings after death! Doesn't it feel a little weird? Human beings have become elves or something. Sundae explained with a hard time.

"That's just a hypothesis of Old Man Fuji, and it hasn't been confirmed, has it? Besides, you shouldn't distinguish between humans and elves. Perhaps in the eyes of elves, we humans are just a special kind of elves. Seeing the sundae like this, Zhenwei patiently comforted. Even Xiao Ai and Old Man Fuji nodded with some approval, after all, the relationship between most humans and elves in this world is still very friendly.

Speaking of this, Zhenwei couldn't help but think of the world in his previous life, where humans always liked to verbally refer to themselves as higher animals, but subconsciously kept distinguishing themselves from animals. Regardless of the fact that individuals were inferior to dogs in that era, for the most part, humans still put themselves above the animal level.

However, the elves in this world are obviously more intelligent and powerful than the animals there, but fortunately, they are all gentle, so they can live in this situation of peaceful coexistence. Therefore, Zhenwei really has no way to regard elves as low-level creatures, let alone include them in his menu.

Just when Zhenwei was pondering, the old man Fuji also had some new feelings, and couldn't help but sigh: "You are right. Humans really shouldn't distinguish themselves from the existence of elves, perhaps because of such dreamy genes...... Forget it, let's not talk about it. I am very touched by the feeling that you can have, and I give this to you, hoping that you can all maintain this concept in the future. ”

Old Man Fuji handed the silver bell that had shown his might before, to Zhenwei.

"This is the ......" Xiao Ai obviously remembered the beauty of this bell, and couldn't help but scream.

"It's called the Bell of Pacification, and if you let the elf carry it, you can increase your intimacy with the trainer. I used this to dispel the anomalies of the House of Souls before. The old man Fuji explained that it may be because of the different concepts of the house of memories that the old man himself called the house of souls.

"Is that so? Why is this bell able to dispel things that could be ghosts?" asked Zhenwei as he held the appeasement bell in his palm, this thing Zhenwei naturally knew, but he never thought that it would have an exorcism effect.

I can explain that. One is because this is the Pokémon Tower's soul suppression, and it is said to have the effect of resting the souls of the dead, and secondly, according to my research philosophy, it may be because the elves are relatively pure by nature, and the souls left behind by the dead will not have any huge obsessions, and it is likely that they are pulled by the obsessions in the painting and cause chaos. That would explain why you have come across that painting with such strange powers. The old man Fuji calmly said his preferred understanding.

After receiving the explanation, Zhenwei and his party returned to the Pokémon Center after saying goodbye to Old Man Fuji, but the sundae still had a sad face.

"Still can't understand?" asked Zhenwei with concern to the sundae across the table.

"No, it's not. It's just that listening to the old man Fuji say that, I feel a little sad. The sundae's greeting to Zhenwei was not as energetic as usual, just thinking about something to himself.

"Sad, you mean the story?" Zhenwei felt that he couldn't catch up with the thinking of the girl in front of him, why did he get to the story again.

"Not really. Didn't Old Man Fuji say that it is possible for a person to become a ghost elf after death? If that ghost happened to be the soul of the girl's lover? Aren't the girls and ghosts too pitiful?" said Sundae, wiping his eyes a little sentimentally.

"......" Zhenwei was speechless for a while, and you have been struggling with this for a long time.

For such things, Zhenwei still watches a lot in soap operas. In this regard, he can only use a literary sentence to explain the situation. That is: the farthest distance in the world, not life and death. But I am standing before you, and you do not know that I am the one you are waiting for.

......

............

..................

After a night of struggle, the next morning, the sundae finally regained its original lively and upbeat appearance. Zhenwei, who thought she needed to struggle for a while, couldn't help but sigh with emotion, women, it really said that the wind is rain, and changing her face is faster than turning a book.

In front of the Pokémon Center, Sundae and Mawei are once again ready to come out, and the next target is Dead Leaf City.

At this time, a girl walked over to the two of them, isn't it the sister Ellie that Zhenwei hasn't recognized yet, that is, the little love in their mouths.

"Really decided to come with us. Zhenwei smiled and said, in fact, he also felt that the other party had the desire to travel with him, and Xiao Ai did express his willingness to do so last night. Zhenwei was naturally very happy about this, although he didn't know why he felt that the cold girl in front of him was a little kind, but this did not affect his approval of the addition of this fellow partner.

After all, the more sister papers, the better, is the king of travel! Well, except for some fierce sister papers.

However, in the spirit of respecting the opinions of others, Zhenwei still asked Xiao Ai to go back and think about it first.

But this doesn't mean anything to Xiao Ai, because she knows that the person in front of her is her brother, so she will never let him go.

In the end, Zhenwei welcomed Ai's joining, and left the Pokémon Center early and entered Dead Leaf City.

As for Peony, who came to the Pokémon Center at noon to look for Zhenwei, now that the three of them are actually gone, they are actually in the Pokémon Center, and Big Thunder hurriedly left Ziyuan Town to start a new trip. Obviously, they can't know these true dimensions, but fate will always let them meet again. Probably!
