Chapter 56: Cherry Blossom Reception (4000)

The next morning, after breakfast, Yosuke began to clean up.

He's leaving, leaving the region of Pardea and going to see the other areas.

Before leaving, he said to Naoki, "If you have the chance, you must visit the Galel area, it is a very beautiful place. ”

Naoki nodded: "If you have time." ”

With a hearty smile on his face, Yosuke immediately waved goodbye to Naoki and embarked on a trip alone with his schoolbag.

Naoki stood in front of the entrance to the ranch and stared at his fading back, only to retract his gaze until he could no longer see.

Life is like a moving train, there are many stops on the way, some people suddenly break into our lives, and some people get off at the station, say goodbye to us, and say goodbye to each other.

Life goes on.

Naoki shook his head slightly, turned and went back to the pasture.

Today's weather is still a sunny day, there is no rain, and there is no way to help Kuailong practice praying for rain.

After finishing his daily work on the ranch, Naoki looked at the empty pasture and decided to buy some decorations and come back to plant.

Like flowers.

Not only can they beautify pastures, but they can also help evolve the Bada butterflies to collect pollen and provide a good living environment for them.

So, at 9:30 a.m., Naoki rode his motorcycle to the seed shop in the town of Ranqin, where he bought a few packs of flower seeds and a space backpack for 20,000 alliance coins.

Tulips, irises, hyacinths......

They returned to the town, carved out a new plot of land on the farm, and together they planted the flowers.

Soon, there will be a beautiful flower field here.

Looking at the big butterflies beside him, Naoki said with a smile: "It will take about 20 days for these flowers to grow out of the ground, and then you can collect pollen and nectar here." ”

"Babbling~"

Ba Da Butterfly was very happy.

It began to look forward to that day.

Naoki, on the other hand, fell into deep thought.

It is known that some Pokémon also change their personalities after they evolve.

Ash's Charizard is an example of this.

So the question is, has the personality of Ba Da Butterfly changed?

Thinking of this, Naoki asked, "Ba Da Butterfly, how are you feeling now?" Do you still want to be like the green caterpillar and try to become stronger? ”

"Babbling ......"

Ba Da Butterfly thought about it carefully, and found that he no longer seemed to have the original idea of desperately wanting to become stronger.

Instead, they want to live a good life and protect the ranch.

But guarding the pasture also requires great strength, just like the big butterflies in the forest guarding the green caterpillar from the hands of the bird Pokémon.

So, it will still work hard!

"Babble!"

"Not bad!" Feeling the perseverance and determination of Ba Da Butterfly, Naoki smiled and touched its head: "Then keep working hard, I will also help you." ”

Ba Da Butterfly: "Babble! ”

Before you know it, it's noon.

Naoki returned to the house and began to prepare lunch, and as he worked on the ingredients, he thought about what had happened recently.

The evolution of the green caterpillar made him realize one thing, all the current Pokémon in the ranch can evolve.

Mini Fu evolves into Oliva, Mount Lamb evolves into Mount Goat, and Salt Stone Treasure evolves into Salt Stone Djinn.

The amount of food and output of these Pokémon will be greatly increased after evolution.

But in reality, there is no level and experience, and Naoki has no way to tell which stage they have grown, so he can only wait slowly.

However, how satisfying and exciting it is to raise all of these Pokémon to the final stage!

Perhaps, this is the joy of nurturing.

Today is February 5th, and there are still two days to go before the Cherry Blossom Cocktail Party.

The work on the ranch is not too busy, and taking this opportunity, Naoki begins to pay attention to the weather with Kualong, expecting rain tomorrow.

However, it is a pity that it was sunny for two days in a row, not to mention raining, and the sky was never cloudy at all.

This made the dragon feel very sad.

In this sunny weather, the pace of time has finally come to the day when the cherry blossom wine party is held.

Participating in such a large-scale event for the first time, Naoki couldn't help but start looking forward to it.

The letter said that the rancher could bring some of the products of his own ranch to sell there.

Naoki looked at his unremarkable pasture and fell into deep thought.

What should he bring with him to sell?

Turnip? Tomato? Cucumber or egg?

No, these are too ordinary, he is not the only one on the nearby farms and ranches, there must be others who will sell these vegetable crops.

So, what about goat's milk and rock salt?

Naoki thinks it's feasible, but it lacks a bit of novelty.

And at this moment, he suddenly thought of the dish he made yesterday, the boiled pork slices that made Flame Ace eat a fire-breathing meal!

Although there are also Chinese restaurants in the Padia area, the number of them is not too large, and the taste has changed slightly according to the eating habits of the locals, so it is not authentic.

Sharing the food of your hometown with the people in the neighborhood should be in line with the theme of the Cherry Blossom Drinking Party, right?

In addition, the price of Chinese food like this is much higher than that of ordinary crops, and you can make a lot of money in a day!

Thinking of this, Naoki immediately began to prepare.

At seven o'clock in the morning, there was still an hour left before the Cherry Blossom Cocktail Party began.

Naoki rode the old Leton, with a bag full of Poké Balls in his pocket.

The Frost Fairy, Mini-Fu, and Salt Stone Treasure in the Poké Balls are looking forward to today's event.

When they heard that Naoki was going out, they immediately said that they would come over to see it too.

So, except for the three mounted lambs in the ranch that were not interested, all the other Pokémon were brought over by Naoki.

Following the location given in the letter, Naoki soon arrived at the Erif cherry orchard.

It is a very large campus with a large number of cherry and cherry trees.

The cherry blossom trees are lined with pink cherry blossoms, and the cherry trees are lined with clusters of heavy, red cherries.

From a distance, Naoki saw the open space in the cherry orchard.

The open space is very large, and there are wrought iron booth display shelves neatly placed on it.

At this time, a lot of people had gathered in the grounds, most of them were farmers from several nearby farms.

Elive, the owner of this cherry orchard, is busy entertaining them.

At this time, he suddenly saw a guy riding an unknown Pokémon in the sky slowly descending.

At first, Elive was still a little dazed, but when he saw the man's appearance clearly, combined with what Mayor Thomas had said to him, his heart moved, and he guessed: "Naoki? ”

Naoki looked at the man in front of him who was strong and had a brown beard on his face, and guessed his identity in his heart, and greeted politely, "Hello, Mr. Elive." ”

"Haha!" Seeing that he had guessed correctly, Eriff had a hearty smile on his face, "Finally I saw you!" Forgive me for not going to your ranch to say hello to you, you know, this season is the time when the cherries are ripe and we have to be busy harvesting, but now we're done, you're welcome, Naoki! ”

Naoki smiled.

At this time, Elive was a little surprised when he saw what he was carrying: "Cooking? That's great! I can already smell the fragrance, we have prepared a booth for everyone in advance, you can pick a spot where there is no one! In a few moments, everyone from the town and tourists from other cities will be coming, and there will be a lot of trainers passing by! ”

"Okay!"

Naoki nodded, and then took Soleton to find a booth with no one at random.

After taking the pot and ingredients out of the space backpack and placing them in the stall, and everything was ready, Naoki took out a few more Pokémon Poké Balls and released them all.

"Everyone, come out!"

With a flash of white light, Salt Stone Treasure and Frost Milk Fairy appeared at the back of the stall.

They felt the lively atmosphere and had happy expressions on their faces.

Naoki picked up the five Salt Stone Treasures and arranged them in a row on the stall as a façade, while Frost Milk Fairy and Mini Fu stood behind them to decorate the stall.

Motorbike Lizard and Old Loton stood by Naoki to help him.

The dragon sat at the back of the stall, and when it had nothing to do, it rested against a cherry tree.

Ba Da Butterfly stayed on top of the stall, standing on it and looking curiously at the nearby crowd.

Today's cooking Naoki has prepared [Boiled Pork Slices] that can provide energy to fire-type Pokémon, [Tree Juice] that restores strength and quenches thirst, [Tomato Scrambled Eggs] that is sweet and sour to increase appetite, and [Steamed Eggs] that are extremely tender and make Pokémon's body slippery.

The price of each dish varies, the most expensive is the boiled pork slices, which cost 1200 alliance coins, and because the portions are not much, Naoki does not sell them too expensive.

Naoki hangs a sign with a pre-written price in front of the stall.

Everything is ready and waiting for someone to come!

At this time, an old lady with blonde hair and a peaceful face next to her was attracted to attention.

She walked over on crutches, looked at the neat row of salt stone treasures in front of the stall, and praised with a smile: "Wow, what cute little ones! Are they all your Pokémon? ”

Naoki smiled and introduced, "That's right, they live in the ranch with me, and when they heard about this event, they came here with me to participate." ”

The old lady was about to say something more, but a childish voice came from next to her: "Dad, look there!" Swift Dragon! It's a fast dragon! And the Bada Butterfly and the Frost Milk Fairy, wow! There are also a lot of salt stone treasures, they look so good! Be motionless there, so obedient! ”

Naoki looked up and saw a little girl about seven years old running over with an adult's hand.

She looked at the frost milk fairy on the stall and couldn't help but say, "It's so cute!" ”

"Mama~" Frost Milk Fairy showed a happy expression.

The man behind her looked at Gu Letun and said in surprise, "What kind of Pokémon is this?" ”

Naoki smiled and introduced, "It's called Gu Leton, and it's my most reliable partner. ”

Hearing the word "most reliable", Le Tlann immediately straightened his back.

"Ahh

That's right, it's Naoki's most reliable companion and his favorite Pokémon!

"So Ledon?" Hearing this unfamiliar name, the man muttered, "I've never heard of it......"

The little girl obviously prefers cute Pokémon like Frost Fairy to a scary-looking Pokémon like Old Leton.

She looked at the Frost Milk Fairy with a wistful expression.

And the frost milk fairy wisely pointed to the sign in front of the stall: "Mama~"

The girl looked over and saw the sign full of the names of the dishes, and she asked cutely, "Do you want me to buy the above dishes?" ”

So cute!

Buy, buy, buy!

The girl turned her head and shouted, "Daddy! I am hungry! ”

Man: "......"

He resigned himself to his wallet and bought a glass of juice and a bowl of steamed eggs for his most beloved daughter.

The father and daughter turned to look at the cherry blossoms.

Naoki and the Frost Milk Fairy glanced at each other thoughtfully, and cast a good look at it.

The frost milk fairy looked proud: "Mama~"

It's very clever!

As time went by, more and more people came to this cherry orchard.

In addition to people, there are also a large number of Pokémon here.

Some were carried by passing trainers, just like Ash would take Pikachu to visit when he heard about competitions and events held in nearby towns while traveling.

Some are Pokémon raised in Eriff's Cherry Orchard, like Sakura Po and Sakura Blossom, which are small and about the size of Salt Stone Po, and a twist dog that wanders around the neighborhood and guards the cherry orchard.

The twist dog, which evolved from the paparazzi, is able to exude a charming aroma on its body, which helps the growth of wheat and some crops, so it is highly valued in rural areas.

There are also wild Pokémon that live nearby.

For example, the angry parrots who are attracted by the lively environment and stay in groups on the branches, the insects rolling in the mud in the forest, and so on.

Before the official start of the flower drinking party, Naoki sat on the bench and looked curiously at the Pokémon that the trainers were carrying.

"New leaf meow, the grass attribute of the Pardea region is the ...... of the three families"

"That's the Carnival Dancing Duck? The ass feels so weird......"

"Wow, there is a trainer who has subdued the charcoal attendant, I don't know if this charcoal attendant will evolve into a Cangyan blade ghost or a red lotus armor rider."

"Electric belly frog? Strange Tree's signature Pokémon. ”

"One, two, three, four, five, six, six tails really have six tails, fluffy, so cute! If only it could be ravaged severely. ”

Hold the six tails in your arms and kiss them wildly, and sleep with them every night, just like holding a cat.

However, it's a pity that the six-tails is not his Pokémon, and Naoki can only think about it in his heart.

Looking at the six-tailed man who was held in the trainer's arms, with two soft little claws hanging down, Naoki felt a wave of envy in his heart.

Before I knew it, the time had come to eight o'clock.

Elive, the owner of this cherry orchard, looked at the growing crowd and happily announced:

"Welcome everyone to Eriff's Cherry Orchard, now I announce! This year's cherry blossom party has officially begun, so please enjoy! ”

At the same time, Naoki also welcomed his second guest.

A male trainer with a lion cub in an orange academy uniform.
