Not a trainer this time.

Chapter 56 Cherry Blossom Reception (4000)

In the early morning of the next day, after breakfast, Yosuke began to pack up.

He is going to leave the Padia area and go to other areas to have a look.

Before leaving, he said to Zhishu: "If you have a chance, you must go to the Galar region, it is a very beautiful place."

Naoki nodded: "If you have time."

With a hearty smile on Yosuke's face, he immediately waved goodbye to Naoki, and embarked on a journey alone with his schoolbag on his back.

Naoki stood in front of the entrance of the ranch and stared at his receding figure until he could no longer see him, then he looked away.

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

Life goes on.

Naoki shook his head lightly, turned around and returned to the pasture.

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

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

Just like flowers.

They can not only beautify the pasture, but also help the evolved Butterfly to collect pollen and provide it with a good living environment.

So, at [-]:[-] in the morning, Zhishu rode a motorcycle lizard to the seed shop in Zuoqin Town, where he bought a few packets of flower seeds and a space backpack with [-] alliance coins.

Tulips, irises, hyacinths...

They returned to the town, opened up a new piece of land on the farm, and planted these flowers in it together.

In the near future, there will be a beautiful flower field here.

Looking at Ba Dahu beside him, Naoki said with a smile: "It will take about 20 days for these flowers to grow from the ground, and you can collect pollen and nectar here."

"Eeeeeeeee~"

Ba Dahu was very happy.

It began to look forward to the arrival of that day.

Naoki, on the other hand, was lost in thought.

As we all know, some Pokémon have different personalities after they evolve.

Ash's Charizard is one example.

So here comes the question, has Ba Dahu's personality changed?

Thinking of this, Naoki asked: "Ba Dahu, how do you feel now? Do you still want to work hard to become stronger like the green caterpillar?"

"Eeeeeeeeeee..."

Ba Dahu thought about it carefully, and found that he seemed to have lost the desire to become stronger as before.

Instead, I want to live a good life and protect this ranch.

But guarding the ranch also requires a strong force, just like the big butterfly in the forest guarding the green caterpillar from the bird Pokémon.

So, it will still work hard!
"Eeeeeeeeeee!"

"Not bad!" Feeling Ba Dahu's perseverance and determination, Naoki smiled and touched its head: "Then keep working hard, and I will help you too."

Ba Dahu: "Hey, yip, yip!"

Time came to noon unconsciously.

Naoki returned to the house and began to prepare lunch. While handling the ingredients, he thought about what happened recently.

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

Miufu evolves into Oliva, the mount lamb evolves into a mount goat, and the salt stone treasure evolves into a salt djinn.

The food intake and output of these Pokémon will be greatly improved after evolution.

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

But how satisfying and exciting it is to raise all these Pokémon to the final stage!
Perhaps, this is the fun of cultivation.

Today is February [-]th, and there are still two days before the opening of the Cherry Blossom Reception.

The work in the ranch is not considered busy. Taking this opportunity, Zhishu and Kuailong began to pay attention to the weather, looking forward to the rain tomorrow.

However, it is a pity that the two days in a row have been sunny, let alone rain, and the sky has never been cloudy at all.

This made Kuailong very sad.

In this sunny weather, the footsteps of time have finally come to the day when the cherry blossom wine party will be held.

It was the first time to participate in such a large-scale event, and Naoki couldn't help but start to look forward to it.

The letter stated that ranchers can bring some special products from their own ranch to sell there.

Naoki looked at his mediocre pasture, lost in thought.

What should he bring to sell?
turnip?tomato?Cucumbers or eggs?

No, these are too common. There are more than one farms and ranches nearby. There must be someone else who will sell these vegetable crops.

So, what about goat milk and rock salt?
Naoki thinks it is feasible, but it still lacks a little novelty.

And at this moment, he suddenly thought of the dish he made yesterday, the boiled pork slices that let Flame Ace eat fire!
Although there are also Chinese restaurants in the Padia area, the number here is not too many, and the taste has also been slightly changed according to the eating habits of the local people, which is not authentic.

Sharing the delicacies of your hometown with the nearby people should be considered in line with the theme of the Cherry Blossom Reception, right?
Moreover, the selling price of this kind of Chinese food is much higher than that of ordinary crops, so you can make a lot of money in a day!

Thinking of this, Naoki immediately started to prepare.

At seven o'clock in the morning, there was still one hour left before the opening of the cherry blossom reception.

Naoki rode Gullerton with a bag full of Poké Balls in his pocket.

The Frosty Milk Fairy, Mini Fu and Salt Stone in the Poké Ball are looking forward to today's event.

After they heard that Naoki was going out, they immediately said that they would also come and have a look.

As a result, Naoki brought all the Pokémon in the pasture, except for the three mount lambs who were not interested.

According to the location given in the letter, Zhishu soon arrived at the Elif cherry orchard.

It is a very large park with a lot of cherry trees planted in the park.

Clusters of heavy, bright red cherries hang on the cherry tree.

From a long distance, Zhishu saw the specially reserved space in the cherry orchard.

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

At this time, a lot of people have gathered in the venue, most of them are farmers from several nearby farms.

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

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

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

Naoki looked at the strong and strong man with a big brown beard on his face, guessed his identity in his heart, and greeted him politely: "Hello, Mr. Erif."

"Haha!" Seeing that he guessed right, Eriv showed a bright smile on his face, "I finally met you! Forgive me for not going to your ranch to say hello to you. You know, this season is the time when cherries are ripe. , we have to be busy harvesting, but now we are done, you are welcome to participate, Naoki!"

Naoki smiled.

At this time, Eriv was a little surprised when he saw what he was holding in his hand: "Cooking? It's really good! I can already smell the aroma. We have prepared a booth for everyone in advance. You can pick a seat where there is no one there." Let's go! Everyone in the town and tourists from other cities will come over in a while, and there are still many trainers passing by here!"

"Ok!"

Naoki nodded, and took Gu Leton to find an empty booth at random.

He took out the pot and ingredients from the space backpack and placed them on the booth. After everything was ready, Naoki took out a few Pokémon Poké Balls and released them all.

"Everyone, come out!"

With flashes of white light, Yanshibao and Frost Milk Fairies appeared behind the booth.

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

Naoki picked up the five salt stone treasures and placed them in a row on the booth as a facade, while the Milk Fairy and Minifu stood behind them to decorate the booth.

Motor Lizard and Guleton stood beside Naoki on the left and right to help him.

Kuailong sat at the back of the booth, and had nothing to do, so he leaned against a cherry tree to rest.

Ba Dahu stayed on top of the booth, standing on it and looking curiously at the crowd nearby.

Today's cooking Naoki has prepared [Sliced ​​Boiled Meat] that can provide energy for fire-attribute Pokémon, [Juice] that restores physical strength and quenches thirst, sweet and sour [Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes] that increase appetite, and It is extremely smooth and tender, making Pokémon's body slippery [steamed eggs].

The price of each dish is different. The most expensive one is boiled pork slices, which costs 800 union currency. Because the portion is not much, Naoki is not too expensive.

Naoki hangs a sign with the price written in advance in front of the booth.

Everything is ready and waiting for people to come!
At this time, an old lady with blond hair and a peaceful face was attracted by the turnip stall next to her.

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

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

The old lady wanted to say something more, when another childish voice came from beside her: "Dad, look there! Kuailong! It's Kuailong! There are also Ba Dahu and Frost Milk Fairy, wow! There are many salt and stone treasures, they She looks so obedient! Standing still there, so obedient!"

Naoki looked up and saw a little girl about seven years old running over excitedly holding the hand of an adult.

Looking at the Frost Milk Fairy on the booth, she couldn't help saying, "It's so cute!"

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

The man behind her looked at Guleton and asked in surprise, "What kind of Pokémon is this?"

Naoki smiled and introduced: "It's called Guleton, and it's my most reliable partner."

Hearing the words "most reliable", Gu Luton immediately straightened his back.

"Ah hiss!"

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

"Gulton?" Hearing this strange name, the man murmured, "I've never heard of it..."

Compared with the scary-looking Pokémon like Guleton, the little girl obviously prefers the cute Pokémon like the Cream Fairy.

She looked longingly at Frost Milk Fairy.

And Cream Fairy cleverly pointed to the sign in front of the booth: "Mama~"

The girl followed the trend and saw the sign full of dish names. She asked cutely, "Do you want me to buy the above dishes?"

so cute!
Buy and buy!
The girl turned her head and shouted: "Daddy! I'm hungry!"

man:"……"

Resigned to his fate, he took out his wallet and bought a glass of fruit juice and a bowl of steamed eggs for his beloved daughter.

The father and daughter turned around and continued to visit the garden.

And Zhishu and Frost Milk Fairy looked at each other in a heart-to-heart relationship, and cast a good job to it.

Cream Fairy looked proud: "Mama~"

It's very smart!
As time went by, more and more people came to this cherry orchard.

In addition to people, there are a lot of Pokémon here.

Some are carried by trainers passing by, just like when Ash travels and hears about competitions and events held in nearby towns, he will also take Pikachu to visit.

Some are the Pokémon raised in the Erivel Cherry Orchard, like Sakura Po and Sakura, which are small in size and about the size of Yanshibao, and a twisted dog that wanders around and guards the Cherry Orchard.

Twist dogs, evolved from paparazzi, can exude a charming aroma from their bodies, which helps the growth of wheat and some crops, so they are valued in rural areas.

There are also wild Pokémon that live nearby.

For example, attracted by the lively environment, the angry parrots staying in groups on the branches, the insects rolling on the mud in the forest, etc.

Before the flower wine party officially started, Naoki sat on the bench and looked curiously at the Pokémon carried by the trainers.

"New Leaf Meow, the Grass-type Yusanjia in the Partia area..."

"Is that a carnival dancing duck? The ass feels so weird..."

"Wow, there is actually a trainer who subdued Charcoal Servant. I don't know if this Charcoal Servant will evolve into a Cangyan Blade Ghost or a Red Lotus Armored Rider."

"Electric Belly Frog? Qishu's signature Pokémon."

"One, two, three, four, five, six, six tails really have six tails, they are so fluffy, so cute! It would be nice if they could be trampled hard."

Hold Liuwei in your arms and kiss wildly, and sleep with it every night, just like holding a cat.

Unfortunately, that six-tailed Pokémon is not his Pokémon, Naoki can only think about it in his heart.

Looking at the Liuwei who was held in the arms of the trainer, with its two soft little claws drooping, Naoki felt a burst of envy.

Before I knew it, it was eight o'clock.

The owner of this cherry orchard, Elif, looked at the growing crowd and announced cheerfully:
"Welcome everyone to Elif Cherry Orchard, now I announce! This year's Cherry Blossom Reception has officially started, please enjoy it!"

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

A male trainer with a lion cub, wearing the uniform of the Orange Academy.
