Chapter 45: To You in a Thousand Years
February 11.
Zhulan left the villa, and it was extremely difficult for her to spare two days for Xu Qiansu's special training at this point in time.
It is estimated that he will go to the ruins to explore tomorrow, Xu Qiansu has not relaxed, nor has he increased the intensity of training, as usual, training as usual.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Zhulan returned to the villa, took a bath, ate something and went straight back to the room to sleep, it seems that even if he is a champion, at this time he is only a 9-to-10 worker, no wonder the champion of the Hoenn area will avoid this identity and go directly to dig stones.
However, there are only a few periods of the year that are relatively busy, otherwise Zhulan would not have time to go to archaeology and become a famous mythological scholar.
February 12th.
At eight o'clock in the morning, after breakfast, the alliance gave the news that the Zhulan site had been opened.
According to the original plan, either the alliance will directly send people to investigate, or it will do a good job of protection, and wait for Zhulan to finish this time and go in person.
Zhulan's reply to the alliance was the second ...... Then he drove Xu Qiansu and Ma Li and left the villa.
At this moment, it is no longer important to explore the ruins, they go because the Galaxy team may go.
Xu Qiansu has no grudges with the Galaxy Team in the past, and he has no grudges recently, and even the purpose and place of the Galaxy Team's troubles have nothing to do with him, but as an Interpol, it seems that arresting antisocial elements is also a matter of responsibility.
However, Xu Qiansu did not tell Shiori about this, after all, everything is just speculation, and there is no substantial evidence that the Galaxy team will be present.
Xu Qiansu sat in the back seat, holding Chirulian in his arms, looking at the buildings flying in front of him.
The Teasupon, the Six Tails, and the Vine Snake were all taken back by him Poké Balls, and the Snow Demon Girl was also left in the villa by him because she was not good at fighting.
Xu Qiansu originally thought that he might need to prepare some professional equipment to explore the ruins, but what those equipment could do, Pokémon could basically do, so he dispelled this idea.
After a few moments, Zhulan drove them out of Binhai City and stopped in a forest outside the city.
Xu Qiansu and Ma Li got out of the car and looked around.
Naturally, the fresh scent hits the tip of the nose.
This is a hillside with dense vegetation, and the sun is shining through the foliage of the forest.
Unremarkable, nothing worth noting.
Xu Qiansu looked at Zhulan.
saw Zhulan directly release a fierce bite land shark.
"Dig a hole."
The Fierce Bite Land Shark nodded slightly, and directly bent down, and within a moment, a dark cavern wide enough to accommodate two adults walking side by side appeared in front of them.
"I thought you would arrange people within the alliance and take us in with some small means." Xu Qiansu said with a smile.
"It's the easiest way to do it." Zhulan is too lazy to engage in those twists and turns, remember the direction, and directly let the Fierce Bite Land Shark dig in, with the Fierce Bite Land Shark's many years of experience in accompanying her to the ruins, she is also familiar with this matter, and she can do it with her eyes closed.
"Roar ......" The fierce bite land shark came out of the pit and nodded slightly to Zhulan.
"If you find any traces of the Galaxy, please leave it to you...... If you don't find it, just take some photos and bring something back. Zhulan asked, in fact, it doesn't matter if Xu Qiansu gets nothing, Zhulan's original intention is just to give Xu Qiansu some work, so that he will not be trapped by human favors...... It's just that now there are more troubles for the Galaxy.
And it seems that he can also repay the favor by pinching his feet......
"Understood." Xu Qiansu nodded, waved his hand, said no more, and stepped directly into the dark cave with Ma Li.
Zhulan looked at their backs, and after a while, she threw out a Poké Ball.
Accompanied by a blue light, a Pokémon appeared in front of her.
"Follow them, act when the opportunity arises, and make protecting them the first priority."
"Ou~"
Although Chirulian's teleportation was able to take Xu Qiansu and them away directly, Zhulan still did not destroy the cave directly, but buried the traces before driving away.
The phone kept beeping...... The alliance is urging her.
"Alas, what a trouble...... After dealing with these things, do you want Xu Qiansu to pinch his feet again......
……
In the dim and lonely passage, Xu Qiansu had already released the small sachet beast, the six-tailed, and the vine vine snake...... In addition to Eevee, Marie also released her own Pokémon.
Eevee was still in her formative years, and it was too early for her to explore the ruins.
The six tails walk at the forefront, with sparks on their light red fur, providing light and illuminating the road ahead.
The faint sound of footsteps echoed in the passage, and at this moment of silence, it seemed extremely harsh.
Xu Qiansu looked at the endless passage in front of him, and asked softly, "Has Miss Ma Li ever had this kind of experience in exploring ruins before?" ”
Xu Qiansu walked in front of Ma Li and didn't look back at her,
"Have you forgotten the ruins you had when you first met the Six Tails?" Ma Li looked at Xu Qiansu's back and responded.
"Woo~" The six-tailed ears and tail that walked in the front were pulled down, she had just been unsealed at that time, and she thought that she was living in a troubled era where humans and Pokémon were fighting each other......
"Quack." The croaking frog walked beside the six tails and comforted him, he lost control a few days ago, didn't he also hurt Ma Li...... As a result, he hung his head aggrievedly.
"Cha-cha-" The pickpocket cat taunted them both mercilessly, with graceful steps.
"Chirp-" The vine snake was also laughing, and then turned his head to look at the pickpocket cat, his big burgundy eyes were unhappy, and then he was directly picked up by Xu Qiansu and held in his arms.
The vine snake struggled, "Wave chirp! ”
Eccentric! Why are you arresting me, not her! I know you don't like snakes, you just like cats, foxes and things like that!
The pickpocket cat squinted at the rattan snake that was making a lot of noise in Xu Qiansu's arms, snorted, turned away from the little face, and then was picked up by Ma Li and stroked the soft hair on her back.
Chirulian sat on Xu Qiansu's shoulder, swaying her calves lightly, and glanced down at the vine snake, thinking that this snake was much better than the six tails...... At least not whining.
Xu Qiansu didn't care about the Pokémon's fighting, he looked at Chirulian and asked, "If you sense the traces of human beings with your spiritual power, tell me in time." ”
Chirulian nodded slightly, she wouldn't let her guard down.
Within a few moments, a pothole appeared in front of the company.
The six-tails jumped down first, the croaking frog, followed by the little saccharine.
Xu Qiansu hugged the rattan snake and then jumped down, stepping on the hard stone bricks and making a soft sound.
He reached out and took Marlie's small, limp hand.
After Ma Li jumped down lightly, Xu Qiansu turned his head to look around.
It is a passageway, and the walls are inlaid with stones that shimmer like the pearls of the night.
The walls are carved with quaint patterns, with an inexplicable mystical charm.
Mary looked to the sides of the passage, judging the position and direction.
She said in a low voice: "According to Zhulan, this ruin is preliminarily divided into five layers...... By height, this should be the third floor...... Release the handle. ”
Xu Qian let go of Ma Li's tender little hand without a trace, then took out his mobile phone, took a few photos of the patterns on the wall, and stretched out his hand to wipe the dust on the wall, before turning his head and saying, "Let's explore first...... Look for the stairs and dig a hole, as if you destroy the ruins, you'll lose more than you gain. ”
Having made up their minds, the two of them did not linger in the same place, but chose a direction and walked forward by the faint light of the night pearl.
Chirulian spread out her spiritual power, closing her eyes and perceiving, without words.
The little pouch beast walked on its short legs, followed Xu Qiansu's side closely, and looked left and right curiously, hoping that a big rock snake would appear again this time...... Hmph, I've been cultivating for so long, and I'm not afraid of you this time.
She thought so, but unconsciously stretched out her little paw to grab Xu Qiansu's trouser leg.
Then out of the corner of her eye, she saw a pair of bright yellow eyes on the wall, which seemed to be cold, fierce, and tyrannical.
"Karui!" The petite body of the little pouch beast shook violently and jumped up directly, but it threw itself into Xu Qiansu's arms.
"Chirp ......" The vine snake was squeezed by the pouch beast and its little face was deformed, and a muffled voice came out of its mouth, and then it squeezed out of Xu Qiansu's arms, jumped to the ground, raised its eyes, tilted its head, and stretched out a slender rattan whip from its neck.
Syllable!
It was as if a large creature was drawn directly against the wall, knocking a disc-shaped creature into the air and spinning it several times.
"Bell ————"
The crisp sound of some impact came from the disc-shaped creature, and anyone could tell that there was a monstrous anger in it.
Syllable!
The vine snake shook the disc creature with a rattan whip and made it spin a few times like a spinning top.
"Bell ————"
The anger is gone, but it has a bit of flattery.
The vine snake snorted and said arrogantly: "What's so arrogant about a broken mirror?" ”
Marie pulled out the book and swept it towards the disc-shaped creature.
"Bronze Mirror Monster, Bronze Pokémon ......" Ma Li muttered to herself, and glanced at the bronze Mirror Monster floating in the air, with a bronze color all over.
"The bronze mirror monster is also an old resident of the ruins...... However, the rattan whip is a grass-based skill, and it doesn't hurt to hit you, what are you afraid of? Xu Qiansu stretched out his hand and pinched the hard body of the bronze mirror monster, and asked with a smile.
The bronze mirror monster is about to cry, is it afraid of the rattan snake? You don't look at the Pokémon around you...... One by one, it has lived in this site all its life, and has never seen these Pokémon, can you not be afraid?
"There's something good here, take us straight there." The pickpocket cat lay in Ma Li's arms, looking at the bronze mirror monster, like a high empress, and ordered in an unquestionable tone.
"You're a robber?" The vine snake raised his face and said disdainfully.
"Aren't you here looking for treasures? What's welcome? "The pickpocket cat used to be the leader of a forest, with hundreds of Pokémon under his hands, and his words and deeds carried the majesty of the superior.
"Vulgar." But the vine snake is not afraid of her.
"Hypocrisy." And except for Xu Qiansu and Ma Li, no one can make the pickpocket cat soft.
"Huh?"
"Huh?"
The two Pokémon needles faced Mai Mang, glaring at each other, and neither of them was convinced.
Xu Qiansu nodded the forehead of the rattan snake and said to the bronze mirror: "Don't be afraid, we don't plan to hurt you......"
As he spoke, he took out a jar of elven food from his backpack and said, "But we're really here to find something." ”
Even through the packaging, the Bronze Mirror Monster can smell the enticing aroma of elven food...... As a result, Xu Qiansu directly dismantled it and handed it to it.
"Eat, it's compensation for the vine snake attacking you just now."
The vine snake turned its little face away and 'hummed'.
The Bronze Mirror Monster was a little unresponsive, although it had never seen anything on the market, but it also knew that it should wait until it completed the task to get this precious food as a reward...... Why did this human give it to me directly?
I don't understand.
There were a lot of questions in his heart, but the body of the bronze mirror monster was very honest, it floated in Xu Qiansu's hand, gobbling up elf food, and began to shed tears as he ate it.
Woo woo, I've never eaten anything delicious.
Xu Qiansu looked at the bronze mirror monster, thinking that its body was such a thin piece, where did the food go?
Pokémon are magical.
Marie looked around, and even with Chirulian spouting, she didn't let her guard down.
Within a moment, the jar of elf food was eaten by the Bronze Mirror Monster, and it was so moved that it wanted to get close to Xu Qiansu's face, but as soon as it got closer, Chirulian opened his eyes directly and punched it away.
"Thank you, thank you, kiss what?" She glanced at the bronze mirror monster and said politely.
The bronze mirror monster didn't care, and flew back again, floating around Xu Qiansu, very happy.
What a nice person~
After floating for a while, it flew in one direction, signaling Xu Qiansu to follow.
"I've lived in this ruins since I was a child, and although I don't know what a treasure is, I've heard that you humans like shiny things, and they must be treasures...... Don't worry, follow me, I won't let you come in vain~ But why did you come here? I've lived for a long time and I've never seen a human ...... You didn't fall in because of an accident, well, I'll find a way to help you escape~"
The crisp sound of the bell couldn't help but come from the bronze mirror monster's body, making the pickpocket cat and the vine snake twitch out of the corners of their eyes, and they couldn't wait to give it another big fight...... How can this mirror talk so much.
From time to time, Six-Tails sniffed left and right, making it easier to find something that Chirulian couldn't find.
The little bag beast lay in Xu Qiansu's arms, leaned her little head on Xu Qiansu's shoulder, looked at the six tails, then giggled, and sniffed hard, but unfortunately her sense of smell was not sensitive, and after smelling for a long time, she only smelled the smell of shower gel on Xu Qiansu's body.
At this moment, the six tails suddenly looked back in the direction they had come, and the six fluffy and cute big tails flicked gently one after another, which was a sign of her vigilance, but in a moment, the smell disappeared.
But the six tails did not let their guard down, she jumped directly on Xu Qiansu's shoulder and licked his side face.
"Woo~ (There seems to be something unclean in the back~)" Six Tails whispered.
Xu Qiansu glanced back at the empty passage behind him, his footsteps did not stop, he muttered for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Get ready, don't act rashly first, see what it wants to do." ”
Six Tails nodded, kissed Xu Qiansu again, and then jumped down.
Chirulian squinted at the stinky fox, remembering that it was a sensitive time at the moment, so she didn't scuffle with her.
"Is this a baby?" At this moment, the bronze mirror monster led everyone to a room on the side of the passage, picked and chose in the messy space, and asked curiously with his telekinesis holding a strange-shaped, shiny stone.
Ma Li looked at it a few times, this stone was not a special prop useful for Pokémon, but she still took it and put it in her satchel, thinking that it might be valuable for Zhulan's research.
The bronze mirror hung and laughed happily.
It feels like it's still useful.
It rummaged for a while, and brought out all sorts of useful and shiny treasures that it thought were useful.
Mirror embroidered with a large startled deer, small bottle, pendant, badge......
Ma Li and Xu Qian have always refused, what to take, fortunately, they are all small things, but they don't take up much space.
The Bronze Mirror Monster took them to a few more rooms, and although it was happy to find it on its own, it was actually something of little value to Xu Qiansu and Ma Li.
"1,000 years ago...... Xu Qiansu looked at the year engraved on a vase, and compared with the current days, it determined the age in which this relic was once located.
"1,000 years ago...... Isn't it the era of washing? ”
Xicui is far from modern times, basically about 1000 years old.
Xu Qiansu glanced at the room a few times, turned out a black and purple pendant, wiped the dust away, handed it to Ma Li, and said with a smile: "To you in 1000 years." ”
Ma Li raised her eyebrows slightly, looked at the small hanging ornament, thought it was quite beautiful, hung it on her mobile phone, looked at it a few more times, and then nodded with satisfaction.
"Thank you, Mr. Xu, for the gift from 1,000 years ago."
As she spoke, Ma Li rummaged through her satchel, took out a gold and silver pendant, and handed it to Xu Qiansu.
This was also excavated from this site.
Xu Qiansu smiled, he looked at it a few times, and also learned from Ma Li and hung it on his mobile phone.
"It's pretty and the color scheme feels a bit like an alpaca." He looked at the pendant and sighed.
Rumble!
Suddenly, a muffled sound sounded from afar, and the earth trembled a little, and dust fell overhead.
Either explosives or Pokémon are extremely destructive skills
Xu Qiansu heard the prestige, his eyes were slightly condensed, and he said in a low voice: "Alliance...... Will the ruins be mined in this way? ”
"Team Galaxy." Ma Li said quietly.
The probability of the Galaxy team appearing here is not ten out of ten, but at least eighty percent higher......
