My Father Budo Bear Master

Chapter 10 Picking mountain goods and preparing for winter

Galar Region, Autumn, Secret Forest.

The leaves on the trees turned yellow, and the whole forest was covered with a golden coat.

The branches of the fruit trees are covered with heavy fruits. Under the nourishment of nature, each fruit looks so plump and juicy.

Outside the cave, Lin Yi and Master Wu Daoxiong were watering the fruit trees they had planted before.

After five months, those fruit pits buried deep in the soil germinated and grew up smoothly, transforming into small saplings about half a meter in size.

Lin Yi, who had already unlocked the two skills of walking and talking, shuttled through this "orchard", looked at these thriving young trees with satisfaction, and said to the martial arts bear teacher beside him in a very immature voice:

"By now next year, they will be able to grow into big trees!"

Master Martial Dao Xiong stretched out his big hand to touch his head, nodded with a smile, "Well, then we will be able to eat the fruit we planted."

Speaking of tree fruit, Lin Yi couldn't help feeling a little worried.

Before you know it, the season has come to autumn, and in a few months, the weather will get colder and colder, and then it will start to snow.

Although he has never experienced winter in this world, judging from his past experience, it is difficult to find food in the winter forest.

If there is another heavy snowfall, his survival situation will become more difficult.

At this time, Master Wu Daoxiong noticed the expression on that small face, was stunned for a moment, and asked, "What's wrong, Xiao Wu?"

Lin Yi was already used to this address, and took it as his nickname.

Facing the question of Martial Arts Bear Master, he explained: "The weather is getting colder and colder, and there will be no food in the forest."

Hearing this, Master Martial Dao Xiong was startled, it has been obsessed with sucking people and almost forgot about it.

Now when Lin mentioned it, it also thought of the cold winters it had spent in the past.

At that time, a thick layer of ice will form on the river, and it will snow heavily, burying the forest and the earth underneath.

In this case, those tree fruits that are easy to obtain in autumn become difficult to find, and the difficulty of searching for other foods is also greatly increased.

As a Pokémon, it can hibernate to save energy and survive the winter, but as a human, Xiaowu can't survive it.

Thinking of this, Master Wu Daoxiong's expression became serious.

"Well, it seems that we have to prepare for winter in advance." Master Wu Dao Xiong said solemnly.

Lin Yi thinks the best way is to collect enough food now, bring it back to the cave for storage, and save it for winter.

He couldn't walk before, so he never went to the forest to see it.

Now that I can walk, I want to explore the forest to see what other edible food there is besides the fruit.

There should be a lot of mountain products growing in this kind of place, such as mountain grapes, mushrooms, hazelnuts, chestnuts and so on.

His idea coincided with that of Master Wu Dao Xiong, so after a short period of thinking, Master Wu Dao Xiong suspended the special training, carried the rattan bamboo basket, and led Lin Yi into the forest.

The ground of the forest is covered with golden fallen leaves, and there will be a crisp "rustling" sound when walking on it.

Accompanied by Martial Dao Xiongshi, Lin Yi walked through it. He looked around and observed the situation of this forest with novelty.

This is the first time he officially entered this forest, as he expected, there are many Pokémon inhabiting this place.

A greedy chinchilla nibbling a pine cone on a tree branch, a scorpion grass flying in mid-air with two rotating leaves acting as propellers, and walking further inside, Lin Yi even saw a marsupial mother with a baby.

The little marsupial shrank in the mother's pouch, only showing a head and two paws, looking at the outside world curiously.

Seeing this scene, Lin Yi and Master Wu Dao Xiong cast their eyes on the little marsupial in the pouch.

Information about marsupials appeared in Lin Yi's mind.

Marsupials, like kangaroos, raise their babies in pouches on their stomachs, and little marsupials rarely come out of pouches during their infancy.

After three years, the little marsupial will leave its mother. It is said that at that time, the marsupial mother will cry loudly, feeling sad for the child's departure.

The martial arts bear master on the side has been staring at the marsupial mother's pouch.

At this moment, it wished that it could also have a pouch like the marsupial mother, so that it could carry Xiao Wu in it anytime and anywhere.

Even in winter when there is heavy snow, there is no need to worry about the cold environment.

Sensing the strange gaze of Master Wu Daoxiong, the mother marsupial and her child turned their heads to look at this magical father-son combination.

That's weird, isn't that kid human?
The mother marsupial was full of doubts, and she was very puzzled about the Pokémon taking care of a human child.

However, Master Wu Dao Xiong didn't explain to the marsupial, it held the basket in one hand and Lin Yi in the other, and said, "Let's go, Xiao Wu."

"Oh!"

Lin Yi withdrew his eyes from the marsupial mother and child, and began to concentrate on searching for edible food in the forest.

Soon, he found many mushrooms under an old tree.

"Can this be eaten?" Lin Yi squatted in front of a brightly colored mushroom and asked.

"This..." Master Wu Daoxiong looked carefully, but as a bear, mushrooms are really not in its recipe.

But as an old father, it didn't want Xiao Wu to feel that there was something he couldn't do. In order not to disappoint him, Master Wu Dao Xiong said bravely, "You can eat it."

Anyway, they are just mushrooms. Although they look different, you can't poison this strong bear Pokémon, right?Master Wu Dao Xiong couldn't help thinking.

Hearing Master Wu Dao Xiong's sure answer, Lin Yi was suspicious: "Are you sure? Is this really edible?"

This strangely colored mushroom should be poisonous, right?

He was not very clear, thinking that perhaps the martial arts bear master who had been living here would understand.

Lin Yi didn't intend to give this mushroom to Martial Daoxiong Master, he wanted to take this thing back, and eat it when there is really no food in winter.

Of course, it needs to be roasted with fire before eating.

There are two ways of origin of the fire.

One is to let the martial arts bear master make fire by drilling wood to make fire, an ancient way.

The second is to use the remaining time to find a fire-attribute Pokémon and ask it for help.

However, Martial Arts Bear Master really didn't know. He looked at the mushroom, thought for a while, and said, "Eat and see."

Saying that, it picked off the mushroom and wanted to swallow it in one bite.

Lin Yi wanted to stop it, but it was too late.

I saw Wu Daoxiong swallowed the mushroom in one gulp, it swallowed it without even chewing it.

Soon, an uncomfortable feeling spread all over his body, and Master Wu Dao Xiong's expression changed.

Lin Yi: "..."

Fortunately, he was already prepared.

Lin Yi silently took out a peach fruit that could detoxify, and fed it into the mouth of Master Wu Dao Xiong.

The uncomfortable feeling in his body gradually disappeared, and Master Wu Dao Xiong let out a long sigh of relief.

Immediately afterwards, its expression became a little embarrassed because of embarrassment.

Martial Arts Bear Master Xiong blushed, "I didn't know this mushroom was poisonous either."
