Chapter 215: Pumpkin Biscuits (4k)
If he can mend clothes and weave cloth, he can do it for the motorcycle lizard himself.
But alas, he didn't master the craft.
With a few days to go before the motorcycle lizard's birthday, Naoki couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he looked at the wool ball in his arms, which was almost bigger than himself.
After pondering for a moment, he decided to return the wool to the pasture first, and then come to town to find someone who could help make the clothes.
The goats weren't as fast as the old Leton, but they were more steady.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Naoki returned to the pasture, and he jumped off his mount goat, which returned to the sheepfold on its own.
The ranch was still as lively as it had been when he left.
Hackrons frolicking in the meadows, three bees and butterflies fluttering among the flowers, and bab Tupa lying on the roof of the chicken hut taking a nap......
Seeing this scene, Naoki smiled slightly, he touched the head of Gu Leton, who ran in front of him, and then looked up at the motorcycle lizard not far away that had not yet woken up.
This is a unique way of behaving on Pokémon.
Whenever they are injured, they curl up and stop moving, and sleep or hibernate to heal their injuries.
Therefore, Leton opened his mouth, and as soon as the word "ah" was spoken, Naoki "shhh
Therefore, Leton immediately closed his mouth, and his eyes revealed a trace of grievance.
"Let's go back to the house first."
Naoki reluctantly took Oldton back to the room, he put the wool on the sofa, and said to Oldon who followed, "Are you afraid of the cold?" ”
So Lerton immediately nodded: "Ahh ”
"Huh?" Naoki was a little surprised.
Because he didn't feel how afraid of cold was in his daily interactions, and according to what he knew, the Wing King, who could break the earth with his fists, was not very afraid of cold.
Therefore, the scales and dragon skin on Lotton's body are much thicker than those of a motorcycle lizard.
This is probably the nature of dragon-type Pokémon? Naoki thought to himself.
After all, twice as weak ice, attribute restraint is too crucial.
"Okay, then I'll find someone to make you a winter-proof winter coat for you, and I'll use these wool." Naoki said.
He was worried that only the motorcycle lizard would have it, and the other Pokémon would be unbalanced.
Just like raising children, partiality is not right.
"Ahh
So Loton let out a rather pleasant cry.
Seeing this, Naoki had a smile on his face, and he couldn't help but reach out and touch the head of this Pokémon with the personality of a big dog.
It took nearly two hours to make a trip to town, and Naoki was a little thirsty, so he was ready to take a sip of water first.
As soon as he picked up the cup, he heard a knock on the door outside.
"Is anyone there?"
Hearing this familiar voice, Naoki was immediately surprised.
He went to open the door, and sure enough, he saw Mrs. Dantès, who lived in town, standing in front of the door with a package.
Under the warm autumn sun, the gray-haired old man had a kind smile on his face.
Seeing Naoki, she lifted the bag in her hand and said softly: "Good afternoon, Naoki, this is the pumpkin cookie I made, because I accidentally made too much, Wright and I couldn't finish it, so I came over to bring you some." ”
Naoki looked at the bag of small biscuits, but he didn't say a word of refusal, and smiled and stretched out his hand to take it: "Come in and sit!" ”
He welcomed the old man into the living room.
Without him talking, the elder brother brought a cup of mellow black tea to the guests.
Mrs. Dantès looked at the interior of the house, which was not luxurious, but it was full of life and traces of Pokémon.
Mrs. Dantès was happy for Naoki from the bottom of her heart: "That's good! It's even more prosperous than when your grandfather ran it! ”
"Huh? Was the pasture backward at that time? Naoki only has sporadic memories in his mind, and his memory of that time is very vague.
Mrs. Dantès nodded, and as she recalled, she said, "There were no big houses here, only a few dilapidated wooden houses, and your grandfather was a man who did not admit defeat, and he had been working very the ranch. ”
"There used to be a lot of farms here, and your grandfather's ranch won first place in crop competitions every year!"
"It must have been a lively time." Naoki imagined it for a moment and couldn't help but say.
"yes!" Mrs. Dantès's eyes were full of nostalgia: "At that time, the town of Ranqin was a very famous agricultural town in the whole of Pardea! ”
Saying that, her face showed a look of regret again: "It's a pity that there are fewer and fewer people who farm the land now, and young people are either going to big cities to develop or to become trainers." ”
Naoki: "Times are changing! ”
In another ten years, the world may change again.
From the era when "the carriage was slow and the letters were far away" to the era when the whole world was connected by a single network cable.
"We're old!" Mrs. Dantès was also very emotional: "If your grandfather saw that you were so sensible, he would be very pleased." ”
Naoki: "......"
He said in his heart that if the grandfather of the original owner could still see all this, he was afraid that he would have been angry with the original owner.
"It's getting late, and it's time for me to go back." Mrs. Dantès said kindly.
As she spoke, she stood up, but suddenly saw a large mass of wool that had been placed in the corner of the living room by Naoki.
Mrs. Dantès was astonished: "What are these wools?" Have you started raising pigtailed sheep on your ranch? ”
"Oh yes!" Mrs. Dantès didn't ask, but as soon as she asked, Naoki remembered to find a tailor to make clothes.
"No, it's the motorcycle lizard's birthday soon, and I'm going to use this wool to make a warm dress for it." Naoki explained, "There are no motorcycle lizard clothes in town, only motorcycle lizard seats. ”
"Birthday presents? The motorcycle lizard will be delighted. Mrs. Dantès was surprised: "I didn't expect you to have this kind of skill." ”
Naoki was stunned for a moment before he realized what Mrs. Dantès meant, and he shook his head helplessly: "...... No, I won't, I want to ask someone else in town to do it for you. ”
Hearing this, Mrs. Dantès's face was pale, and she said enthusiastically: "In that case, then leave it to me!" I have a loom at home and I often use it to make clothes! ”
"Huh?" Naoki was slightly stunned.
Mrs. Dantès proudly said, "When I was young, I was a very popular tailor in town! It's just that a lot of factories that make clothes appeared, and our handmade tailor shops were slowly eliminated. ”
Hearing this, Naoki thought seriously for a moment, and then thanked the kind old man: "Then I'll trouble you." ”
"Don't worry, it's my best job." Mrs. Dantès was very welcoming.
The amount of wool was too large for her to hold alone, so Naoki asked Kuailong to help bring Mrs. Dantès and the wool over.
Seeing Mrs. Dantès, who had been kind to him, Kuailong seemed very happy, and gladly took the wool from Naoki's hand, and followed Mrs. Dantès to the town.

At five o'clock in the evening, Zach came to the ranch on time to receive the goods.
After carrying the buckets of moo milk into the car, he wiped the sweat from his face with a towel and said:
"It's Thanksgiving next month, are you ready for pumpkin cookies?"
"Pumpkin cookies?" Naoki was a little confused.
He knew about Thanksgiving because Zach had told him before.
This day is the last day of autumn, and people gather to celebrate the festival and give thanks to the Lei Guan.
But what do pumpkin cookies mean?
Seeing his puzzled face, Zach was surprised: "You don't know? ”
Naoki was even more confused: "What do you mean?" ”
Zach thought about it carefully and muttered to himself, "That's right, you left the town of Yanqin at a very young age, and it's normal not to know." ”
"In that case, I'll explain it to you!" "It's a custom that has been passed down from a long time ago in the town of Ranqin, and on the last day of autumn, to celebrate the harvest, people living near the town give each other small biscuits made from crops," Zack said. ”
"At night, there will also be children and Pokémon going door-to-door, exchanging their own cookies for the owner of the house."
Hearing this, Naoki roughly understood why Mayor Thomas was celebrating the Thunder Crown on this day.
"I know, I'll do more when I get back." He nodded, just as Mrs. Dantès had already eaten the pumpkin biscuits they had sent in the afternoon.
"That's fine!" Zach smiled heartily: "I just told you in advance, don't look back, the children in the town come to ask for cookies, it's bad if you don't prepare." ”
Naoki thought seriously for a moment and asked, "In that case, can I exchange the cookies of the previous child for the next one who arrives?" ”
Focus on recycling.
Zach choked: "It's never happened like this. ”
Naoki smiled, "I'm just a little curious, and I don't really plan to do it." ”
Zach breathed a sigh of relief, in his opinion, Naoki was not the one who would do such a thing.
After the goods were moved, he drove away from the ranch.
Naoki picks a large golden pumpkin from the ground and carries it back to the house.
It was getting dark, and my sister's housekeeper had already begun to prepare dinner.
Naoki cleans the pumpkin and carries him to the cream workshop for Frost Fairy.
It is said to be a cream workshop, but it is actually a room dedicated to making cakes, snacks, and desserts.
Frost Fairy's sharp eyes noticed that Naoki was about to make desserts, and immediately rushed to follow.
But its size is too small, and its steps are not big, so it can't keep up, so it can only let out a cry for Naoki to wait.
"Mama!"
Naoki stopped and watched as a little Frost Fairy ran over the couch to him, he lowered his body, and Frost Fairy jumped on top of the large pumpkin in his arms.
"Mama!" It's going to make desserts together, too!
Seeing the appearance of the frost milk fairy, Naoki laughed and said, "Aren't you tired after being crazy outside with the salt stone barrier all day?" ”
"Mama~" The frost milk fairy shook her head, shaking her body happily, and her body exuded a faint sweet fragrance.
"But then again, I see that the other frost milk fairies are very timid, except for the trainers, everyone will hide in fear, why are you so bold?" Naoki was a little puzzled.
Not only does he mess with the salt stone barrier that is I don't know how many times larger than it is every day, but he also dares to squeeze on a sofa with the old Leton.
"Mama!" Frost Milk Fairy is proud, and that's because she is a brave Frost Milk Fairy!
"Do you know what happens to daring Pokémon?" Naoki raised an eyebrow and asked deliberately.
"Mama?"
Sure enough, Frost Milk Fairy was piqued with curiosity.
Naoki: "First, bold Pokémon are not afraid of any existence, and their lively and cheerful personality makes them good friends with everyone. ”
The frost milk fairy listened carefully, and then said happily: "Mama~" That's what it said!
"Don't worry, there's a second one." Naoki smiled slightly, and seeing that the frost fairy was listening carefully, he continued: "But they are too small, and they will exude a very sweet and creamy smell on their bodies, and this smell may attract some Pokémon who like to eat sweets, and then eat them in one bite. ”
At first, Frost Milk Fairy was still listening carefully, but slowly, the more it listened, the more wrong it became.
It scared it a little.
Frost Milk Fairy: (_)
"I'm going to start making pumpkin cookies, you go and stay for a while."
As he spoke, Naoki came to the cream workshop.
He sent Frost Fairy to the windowsill and began making pumpkin cookies.
The Frost Milk Fairy had already reacted at this time that Naoki was scaring it.
It shouted, "Mama! "Bad Naoki!
Naoki prepares to cut the pumpkin into cubes, steam it in the microwave, and puree it.
Hearing the voice of the frost milk fairy, he didn't look up, and while he was busy with the work in his hands, he said seriously:
"It's not that I'm scaring you, it's really happening, you guys are covered in delicious sweet cream, wild Pokémon don't have trainers to teach, and they're likely to eat you directly."
Hearing this, the frost milk fairy felt that Naoki was right, and it began to be afraid again.
Naoki comforted, "Don't be afraid, the salt stone barrier will protect you!" After they evolve, they will become tall and large salt stone djinn, and together with five, ordinary Pokémon can't beat them at all. ”
Standing in the corridor outside the door, I came over to see if Naoki needed help, and his brother loved to take care of the waiter, and his expression was complicated.
Does this comforting really work?
These comforts have proven to be effective for Frost Milk Fairy.
Visibly relieved, it sat in the cream workshop for a while, and when it saw that Naoki didn't need its help, the frost fairy quietly left the place.
It went downstairs, ran to the living room, ran out the door, and ran to the underground cave where the salt and stone were built.
Looking at the five of them walking around in the cave, still full of energy after a day of playing, the frost milk fairy breathed a long sigh of relief.
Seeing the Frost Milk Fairy suddenly descend to the ground, the faces of the salt stone barriers were full of confusion.
The Frost Milk Fairy asked solemnly, "Mama?" (Are we best friends?) )
The salt stone barricades nodded their heads again and again, there is no doubt that they have the best relationship in the pasture.
The Frost Milk Fairy continued to ask, "Mama? (What if I'm in danger one day?) Will you protect me? )
"Base!" Of course!
Frost Milk Fairy: "Mama! (Then you have to work hard and quickly evolve into a Salt Stone Djinn, Naoki said that the Salt Stone Djinn is a very powerful Pokémon!) )
As for the matter of evolution, the salt stone barriers naturally thought about it too.
But it's out of their control!
After leaving the underground cave, the frost milk fairy was still a little uneasy.
It thought about it carefully, and felt that it had to work its own in addition to relying on the salt stone barriers.
"Mama!" It's decided!
Frost Milk Fairy's heart was suddenly full of fighting spirit.
It also has to be trained!
Like the fast dragon, become the world's most powerful frost milk fairy!
