After leaving the forest, they hadn't gone far before the two came to a fork in the road again.

At this time, there were two paths in front of Xia You.

If you follow the road in the current direction and continue west for a few kilometers, you will reach a protected area called the Natural Park.

It is a paradise for insect Pokémon in the Johto area, and it is inhabited by many insect Pokémon, and it is said that every year at this time, an official insect hunting tournament is held there.

Contestants use the park balls provided by the park to catch bug-type Pokémon in the park, and after the battle and competition, the winner will not only get the Pokémon they caught, but also receive a beautiful prize from the park.

Because of the generous rewards and the ability to get Pokémon for free, many people will participate in the conference every year, and small traders and vendors will choose to set up stalls at the entrance of the park at this time to sell some small gifts and various foods, and make a small profit.

It can be said that now is the time when the park is at its most lively.

It's a pity that Xia You doesn't have the insect Pokémon he wants to accept for the time being, so he has no intention of hanging out there, and Lijia, who is the owner of the grass pavilion, also has a respectful attitude towards the insect Pokémon, so after a little discussion, the two turned north directly and went to Yuanzhu City along another road.

……

Yuanzhu City - a town covered with traces of history.

As an ancient city in the northern part of the Johto region, Enju City is located in the forest between Mt. Ryba and Ohara on the west bank of the nearby Jotoshi.

It is known as a historical and cultural city, so it is not full of high-rise buildings and modern facilities like other cities, but rather has traditional Japanese architecture.

As the sun sets, Xia You and Lijia walk on a slightly secluded street.

After coming to this city, all you can see, whether it is the streets or the buildings, are all antique and full of historical age.

Patches of shingle houses, towers, stone bridges and stone paths have become the main theme of the place.

Even if it's not a festival or a holiday, there are still a lot of people on the street, wearing kimonos and stepping on a pair of clogs, leisurely wandering around.

Seeing these people, Xia You couldn't help but glance at Lijia again.

In the canal on the side, the river water is crystal clear, flowing quietly and making a gentle sound.

At this time, Lijia was still dressed in a tight-fitting kimono that was easy to travel, but it looked very similar to the people here, as if she was also a local.

There's no sense of disobedience at all......

Sensing his gaze, Lijia turned her head to look at him.

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, it just feels like you're a good fit for the city."

Lijia smiled lightly and did not speak.

She also loved the slow pace and the sense of tranquility.

As the two went deeper into the center of the city, Xia You and Lijia took out a travel guide and looked at it as they walked.

It is very clear in the guide that the most famous places in the city are the Bell Tower and the Bell Tower, which represent the awakening and sleeping places of Pokémon respectively, and these two towers are also the tallest buildings here, one of them is in the east of the city, and the other is in the west of the city, echoing each other from afar, and has long been a part of the solemnity of the city.

It is said that both towers were built 700 years ago as a friendship between humans and Pokémon, and when people stand on the top of the towers, they can clearly enjoy the magnificent view of the entire city.

According to the folk legends of the Johto area, King Feng and Lokia used to live on the top of these two towers!

Unfortunately, 150 years ago, a lightning bolt struck the Tower of the Bell, which caused a fire that burned for three days and three nights, and finally although it was extinguished by heavy rain, most of the tower was burned down, leaving only a little ruin on the ground.

The next story is obviously more widely known.

In the fire, three unknown Pokémon were burned to death in the fire, but they were resurrected by the Phoenix King who fell from the sky, and this is the story about Emperor Yan, Water Monarch and

The legend of the origin of Lei Gong!

Since then, King Feng and Lokia have left Yuanzhu City, and the people here have not rebuilt the Bell Tower for unknown reasons, so that the ruins have been preserved, and it is slowly called the Scorched Tower.

Of course, legends may have a certain exaggeration, with artistic processing, and are not necessarily true.

At least Xia You remembered that there seemed to be more than one water monarch in this world.

However, when it comes to King Feng, his anger does not come to one place.

After all, that guy from King Feng stopped him from subduing the Three Holy Beasts not long ago!

Hmph, King Feng, don't let me meet you here!

Between me and you, there is still an account that has not been settled!

On the side, seeing Xia You's contemplation, Lijia asked, "Where are we going now?" Are you going to challenge the gym directly?"

Like other big cities in the Pokémon world, Yuanzhu City also has an official gym with Matsuba as the owner and a ghost-type Pokémon specialty, and after defeating him, trainers can get phantom badges from him.

But this time...

Glancing at the sunset, Xia You shook his head.

"It's a bit inappropriate to go to the gym now, and I'm a little hungry, so I'd better go find a place to live first."

Lijia nodded, and the two walked to the end of the road, just in time to see a homestay.

At the time of check-in, the owner heard the two foreign accents, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Two guests, you came at the right time!"

"Oh?" Lijia glanced at him, "Why do you say that?"

The shopkeeper pretended to be mysterious and said, "Tonight at the Yuanzhu Dance Ground, there is a stage performance by the five Yuanzhu sisters! If you're okay, don't miss it!"

The five sisters of Yuanzhu?

Xia You touched his chin.

Because he has watched the anime, he naturally knows these five girls, and he remembers these five people, who seem to be also called Yin Bu's five sisters.

It seems to be five girls in kimonos, accompanied by Yin Bu, dancing on the stage.

And for Lijia, who had never heard of this, she was naturally puzzled.

"Stage performance?" she asked. Are they famous?"

"Huh? Don't you know, guest?" The shopkeeper scratched his cheek when he saw Lijia's surprised face, "Ah, I forgot that you are not from here, how can I say it, the five sisters of Yuanzhu are not only here, they can be very famous even in the whole city, and they are also the stars of our Yuanzhu City!"

Speaking of this, the shopkeeper looked like a nymphomaniac, showing a look of yearning, and continued: "Alas, five lovely and beautiful girls, dressed up and dancing in the spotlight of the stage, are really pleasing to the eye! If you see it once, you won't be disappointed!"
