Elf: A bad trainer starts from farming

Chapter 454: A Lovely Couple, Mingyou Proposes Marriage (asking for monthly tickets)
"We are so lucky. We didn't expect the storm to stop yesterday, and even the tsunami retreated. Otherwise, we would have to take a long detour and walk from the top of the mountain for at least a week to enter Biyi City."

At the light rail station in Biyi City, a brown-haired girl in a red miniskirt sighed with relief. She faced the refreshing breeze blowing from the top of the mountain and put the red hat with the wrinkles smoothed out on her head.

Next to her, a determined boy with a Pikachu clenched his fists and shouted with a smile: "Then take this opportunity to challenge the Biyi Gym and win the badge!"

"We should go eat now!"

"yes……"

"Yulijia can no longer walk..."

"Eh?"

Seeing his three companions all wanting to rest, the boy sighed as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on him. "I want to finish the gym challenge as soon as possible and wait to watch the Masters Tournament the day after tomorrow."

"Pica..."

If Mingyou were here, he would definitely be able to recognize that this young man was none other than Xiaozhi, whom he hadn't seen since the end of the Youth Cup. He was now traveling in the Kalos region and happened to come to Biyi City.

And on the other side.

Because of helping to resolve the storm, Mingyou and Xiaozhao became forever friends in Biyi City. As long as they come to Biyi City for tourism, all their expenses are free.

We had just experienced a disaster, and although many people had returned, the shops were basically in a state of repair, and there was nothing to see even if we went to the streets.

So the two of them had to visit the Tree of Oath located in the center of Biyi City. It is managed by Master Fu, and the Biyi Gym was also built under the tree, almost becoming a part of the trunk.

As a landmark of Biyi City, the Tree of Promise attracts many tourists every year. It is rare to see a tree that has survived for thousands of years and is still full of vitality. There are many spaces inside it that were eaten by insect-type Pokémon, which have been utilized and built as a whole tourist facility.

"I only realized how spectacular it is after I walked in. I heard that the current height is 131.4 meters. I am not sure whether it is still growing, but no matter spring, summer, autumn or winter, the tree is always covered with green shade."

Mingyou introduced the tree to Pianpian and the others, after all, such trees could not be seen in Beishang Township, and then he took everyone in to visit.

Due to the impact of heavy rain, some facilities may be damaged, so the interior of the Tree of Oath is temporarily closed to the public. However, they will not go to the top of the tree, so they will be let in by the staff.

Xiao Zhao looked around and gave his own guess: "It should be affected by Lugia's power. Legend has it that where Pokémon stay for a long time, the environment will also be affected by their power. Otherwise, this tree may have died a long time ago."

"Maybe. By the way, how about going to the top of the tree and enjoying the view of Biyi City?"

“It’s very dangerous!”

"Yeah...that's right."

Although he said this, Mingyou still planned to take the other party up. Let's talk about it tomorrow. Today, just get familiar with the environment.

After strolling around the Tree of Promise, the two prepared to go back to the hotel. However, as soon as they came out of the tree, they saw a familiar figure not far away, who seemed to be preparing to go to the Biyi Gym to challenge.

Feeling the gaze, at Pikachu's reminder, Xiaozhi also looked over here, his face full of surprise. He never expected to meet Mingyou here.

The two parties walked up to greet each other and saw that it was indeed Mingyou himself. The girl next to Xiaozhi, named Yurika, walked up to him excitedly and wanted an autograph and a photo.

"Don't tell anyone I'm here."

"Yes, I will!"

Yulijia accepted the photo and autograph as if she had found a treasure, and ran to shout to the brown-haired girl.

"Serena, you should also ask him for an autograph. It's very valuable now!"

Mingyou: “???”

"Uh... let's forget about this."

The girl called Serena gave an awkward but polite smile and waved her hand. Is it really appropriate to talk about selling autographs in front of the person himself?

Mingyou coughed lightly, pretending not to care, changed the subject, looked at Xiaozhi, and asked: "Are you here to challenge the gym?"

"Well, get the badge as soon as possible, and then wait for the opening of the Masters Tournament to go to the Galar region to cheer for you. I will also participate in the next one and try to fight with you again!"

“Haha, you must work hard!”

Mingyou smiled in response and continued chatting with Xiaozhi about some recent events, asking about the other's progress.

Xiaozhao stood aside with a smile on his face, but suddenly noticed that the girl named Serena seemed to always look at Xiaozhi from time to time. As a person who had experienced this before, she smiled knowingly and saw through it in an instant.

However, her smile, which seemed to see through everything like a fish leaping out of a swamp, was accidentally caught by Serena, who was stunned and quickly raised her hand.

"that……"

"Don't worry, I won't tell!"

"What are you two talking about?"

Yulika asked curiously.

Serena waved her hands quickly, saying that she was fine. She was sweating profusely.

After a moment, the two sides separated.

It was already late today and Xiaozhi still had to go to challenge the gym, so Mingyou didn't waste his time any longer and said goodbye and returned to the hotel.

On the way back, Xiaozhao said with interest: "Haha, that girl likes Xiaozhi. I thought Xiaoguang and him were a couple. I wanted to bring them together, but luckily it didn't work out."

"Really? Now that I think about it... I want to see what happens when the three of them get together."

"Don't add fuel to the fire."

"Haha, but compared to worrying about their affairs, our affairs are of course more important now."

"Ok?"

"nothing……"

Mingyou quickly fell silent. He was waiting to give the other party a surprise tomorrow. He had been preparing for it for such a long time without telling Xiaozhao, and he couldn't let it be exposed so easily.

"..."

Xiao Zhao's eyes flickered and she looked at him for a while without asking any further questions.

Soon, the night passed.

Although it had just experienced a rainstorm, the Tree of Promise Festival still attracted many tourists, which helped to dispel the gloom in the post-disaster Biyi City and quickly return to its former bustle.

Preparations for the festival went very quickly.

Although the festival officially started in the evening, many activity stalls were already open for business at noon. Mingyou and his friends were finally able to relax and enjoy the festival food and rides.

Before you know it, night falls...

Pengpeng and the others were very conscious. They left the place to the two of them and ran away to play somewhere else.

Just watching the sky gradually darken, Xiaozhao, who had been playing in the festival all day, also felt a little tired. He held Mingyou's hand and said softly: "It's almost time. The opening ceremony of the Masters Tournament is tomorrow at noon. You have to go to bed early tonight."

"Then let's go to another place."

Mingyou responded in a low voice, and brought Xiaozhao, who looked puzzled, to the Tree of Promise, avoiding the sight of the guards, and led the other party into the interior.

"Where are you going?"

"To the top floor."

"No, it's very dangerous up there."

Xiaozhao held his hand, stopped where he was, and said helplessly: "Just stay here, I know you have something to say to me."

"Hmm~"

They hid themselves in the dark corners where the lights could not reach, and watched the excitement quietly without being discovered by the two people.

Hurry up!
We want to watch scenes that are not suitable for children!
"Uh……"

Mingyou scratched his hair, feeling a little conflicted. If he stayed here, it would be too depressing. He would rather go to the top of the Tree of Promise and mention that matter to the other party under the night sky filled with bright stars.

Seeing that he was hesitant and unwilling to speak, Xiaozhao loosened his hand. He could no longer hold back and shouted in a heavier tone: "What's the matter? Can't you just explain it here? Do you have to go to that kind of place? Don't always look like a riddle man, okay? I've been playing with you here for a whole day and I'm very tired now!"

"Uh……"

Mingyou was stunned for a moment. He didn’t expect that the other party would be angry about this matter. He quickly explained: “I know all this, but it’s really not appropriate in this situation, so you…”

"Then go alone!"

Before he could finish speaking, Xiaozhao turned around and left. He was really fed up with the other party's attitude.

"Um..."

Hiding in the corner, Peng Peng and the others were stunned when they saw Xiao Zhao leave after he lost his temper. They looked at each other in bewilderment. This situation seemed a bit serious. What should they do next? Go and persuade him?
Mingyou stood there, watching Xiaozhao's back disappear from his sight. He felt very uncomfortable and calmed down completely. He was full of self-blame because it seemed that he had not considered the other person's feelings at all.

I screwed up again...

He sighed, hesitated for a moment, and decided not to chase after her. Even if he went over now, it probably wouldn't make the other person feel better. He really needed to calm down.

He looked up and climbed the stairs alone.

Seeing that he had no intention of chasing after him, the others couldn't understand what was going on. So they decided to go out and check out the situation first...

At the top of the Tree of Promise, due to its numerous thick branches, a rooftop was built around the edge for viewing the scenery. Usually, this is where some Flying Pokémon live.

Mingyou came to the rooftop alone. The cold night wind blew past. He sighed softly and leaned over the slightly shaking guardrail, looking at the diamond ring in his hand that he had spent a long time making with Diancie diamonds.

It ended up being totally useless...

"As expected of me!"

Although he didn't know what there was to be proud of, but as the night breeze blew, he completely returned from his fantasy to reality. He sighed softly that everything was not as smooth and beautiful as he had imagined.

Looking at the bustling festival below, he retracted his gaze and looked up at the branches of the Tree of Promise. But at this moment, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a green Poké Ball embedded in the thick branch above him. It should have been stuffed in as a collection by the wild Pokémon living on the top floor.

"Could this be?!"

Unexpectedly, the last one...

At the same time, at the Tree of Promise Festival, Xiaozhao bit her lips lightly, her expression dim, as if she had lost her strength, walking alone in the bustling celebration. Everything in the background seemed to have nothing to do with her, she just walked quietly like that.

The first time, quarrel...

Why didn't she control herself? She shouldn't be like this, or was it because she had accumulated too much resentment these days, so she accidentally...

Do you want to apologize?
After all, her problem this time is bigger. Mingyou must be feeling very uncomfortable right now, right?

These thoughts suddenly appeared in her mind, and she glanced back with a hint of anticipation, perhaps hoping that the other party would catch up with her... Unfortunately, she didn't see Mingyou at all.

After confirming that the other party was not the one who failed to find her, but really did not chase her at all, she laughed at herself and her expression became much gloomier again.

Finding a park bench to sit down, she pulled off her headscarf and placed it on her thighs, slowly closing her eyes, not wanting to think about it anymore and clearing her mind.

But at this moment, the phone rang suddenly, bringing her back to her senses and she took out the phone from her bag.

really……

Looking at the call from Mingyou, a smile flashed across her face, but it disappeared in a flash. After hesitating for a while, she pouted her lips, snorted, and chose to hang up directly without paying any attention. For the time being, she just wanted to calm down for a while, not that she was really angry with the other party.

It's just that sometimes, Mingyou never cares about her feelings, and arranges things on his own that he thinks will make her happy, and he has an indifferent attitude when facing danger and events.

Although she tried her best to cooperate, she would always get tired sometimes. She was also a very selfish person at heart. Her only satisfaction was to hope that the other person could be happier, stay with her, and live together, instead of causing trouble all day long.

So go find him later.

Let him understand how you feel!

She was also a little willful. Although she knew she was wrong, she did not intend to apologize immediately.

But at this moment, she suddenly saw several familiar figures under the Tree of Promise not far away. Xiaozhi and the others, whom she had met yesterday, seemed to be doing something there.

Out of curiosity, she got up and walked over.

But just in time, seeing Xiaozhi giving Serena a blue ribbon that seemed to be full of love, the other party seemed a little caught off guard, but still happily accepted the gift and held it in the palm of her hand.

"Xiao Guang is losing, how can he win..."

Looking at this scene, Xiaozhao felt deeply sympathetic towards Xiaoguang who was now nowhere to be found. It would be better not to tell the other party since his home had been robbed.

But...giving gifts?

She looked at the blue ribbon in Serena's hand, which was the most important item in her life, and was silent for a moment. Then she glanced at a handicraft stall not far away, put on her headscarf again, and walked over slowly.

At this moment, the others were hiding not far away, with worry written all over their faces. They had no idea what the two were thinking at the moment. So they should go and persuade them, or tell Xiaozhao the truth...

The top of the Tree of Promise.

The agile Mingyou leaped from the tree trunk and landed on the rooftop. The entire rooftop seemed to shake, but he did not care. Instead, he looked at the strange ball in his hand with a smile on his face.

Because it had rained, it was stuck too tightly on the tree and it took some time to finally take it down. Unexpectedly, the last Strange Ball was here, and Xiaozhao’s Pokémon were finally all found.

“I remember this last one was…”

He recalled the name of the Pokémon in his mind and planned to call Xiao Zhao again, but after hesitating for a while, he decided to go directly to the other party. After all, the call was just hung up on him, and it can be seen that the other party is still in a bad mood.

So he turned around and was about to go downstairs, but his body suddenly stopped where he was. He looked with some disbelief at the small photo that was standing at the exit door, staring at him with resentment on his face.

"Uh……"

"You really came up here alone!"

"Um...sorry about what happened before."

Mingyou lowered his head slightly and offered to apologize. Now that he had calmed down, he no longer thought about those things. He just wanted to let everything take its course. As for now, he just wanted to finish the Masters Tournament well.

Listening to his sincere apology, Xiaozhao felt very uncomfortable. It was obviously because he lost control of his emotions and got angry at the other person first...

Pursing her lips slightly, she walked forward, intending to have a good talk with Mingyou at the place he had chosen, and explain everything to him without reservation to avoid any misunderstandings in the future.

"Well, I..."

Xiaozhao slightly opened his lips and was about to speak.

But at this moment, the rooftop that had been damaged by the rainstorm could no longer bear the weight of the two people. The moment she approached the guardrail, it suddenly collapsed with a loud bang, broke in the middle, and fell downwards!

Such a loud noise naturally attracted the attention of the tourists attending the festival below. They screamed and ran away, but the two people who were on the guardrail did not react to this sudden accident at all, and directly fell off the roof and fell down.

"Hmm!"

Pengpeng and the others, who were looking for Xiaozhao below, happened to see this scene. They became anxious and hurried over to rescue them.

"Mingyu!"

At this critical moment, Xiaozhao, who was holding the guardrail, changed his expression. He used the guardrail as a platform to jump and hugged Mingyou in mid-air.

In an instant, a ray of light suddenly flashed, and a brave giant bird with three flaming crests on its forehead appeared from the strange ball. It spread its gray-white wings, caught the two people who fell down, and soared straight up, quickly distanced itself from the ground, and stayed steadily in the air.

Seeing that the two were fine, Reshiram and Milton, who were about to rescue them, used fire and lightning to burn the fallen rooftop to ashes, successfully preventing an accident from happening.

"call……"

Sitting on the familiar back, Xiaozhao breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the brave eagle who suddenly appeared and saved her, her face full of surprise.

"I didn't expect you to be here!"

"Just~"

"I really shouldn't have gone to the rooftop..."

Mingyou held the strange ball and sighed softly. He would never learn his lesson unless he suffered a loss.

Xiaozhao took the Warrior Eagle's strange ball from him, and asked curiously while trying to find his last lost Pokémon.

"Where did you find it?"

"In the tree on the rooftop."

Hearing this, Xiao Zhao had a complicated expression. If the other party was really stopped by him, he would have missed the chance to find the Warrior Eagle. Although it was always risky, the other party was able to gain companions in this way time and time again. It might be better to say... this was Mingyou!

Feeling the night breeze blowing on her face, she smiled with relief, took out a small box from her backpack, handed it to the other person, and said softly with an apologetic look on her face: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have lost my temper with you before. This... is a gift for tonight."

"Ok?"

Mingyou took the box curiously and opened it.

On the sponge pad inside the box, there was a ring with a cute face of Pian Pian lying quietly. It was obviously handmade and there were traces of carving on it, but it was very delicate. It seemed that such things were not sold at the festival, otherwise I would have seen it and bought it a long time ago.

"Could it be..."

"Well, it took some time to make at a craft stall. After all, you like 検検 the most, so this should make you feel better."

"You know my mind thoroughly."

Mingyou put on the ring with a smile. It might have been better if it was embellished with Taijing, but this ring was already a priceless treasure to him.

Since the other party has given it, then he should also...

"Let's exchange gifts!"

Mingyou also took out the small box that had been hidden in his pocket for a long time. At this moment, he no longer felt any nervousness or other emotions, and no longer had any illusions. All he had in his mind was what he wanted to say now.

Seeing that it was also a small box, Xiao Zhao couldn't help but feel a little curious. When she was about to reach out to take it, Mingyou came towards her and opened the small box. Under the moonlight, a crystal clear pink dazzling light bloomed at this moment.

"……Eh?!"

Looking at the diamond ring in the box, which was completely different from the ring he had given away, Xiao Zhao's brain buzzed. After a few seconds, his cheeks turned red and he looked extremely nervous and at a loss.

"Wait! Are you going to tell me... Wow, this... is too sudden! Why didn't you say it in advance... Um, let me prepare!"

How could she not see it now, but she was totally unprepared and simply thought that the other party just wanted to give her a surprise. Who could have thought that the surprise would be so big.

The warrior eagle spread its wings and circled above the tree of promise. Mingyou kept smiling, took the diamond ring out of the box, and gently held Xiaozhao's left hand, then asked: "Do you like this gift?"

"I like it! Of course I do!"

Xiaozhao, who was extremely flustered just now, answered directly without hesitation.

She doesn't care, she wants this!

Watching Mingyou gently putting the engagement ring on her finger, Xiaozhao felt an indescribable joy welling up in his heart, or perhaps it was the happiness of anticipation. Even his temperament changed at this moment, and all the physical and mental fatigue was swept away.

She had waited for this day for a long time.

From today on, your life will belong to the person in front of you, and the other person will also belong to you!
"So tonight..."

Xiaozhao blushed slightly and hugged him tightly. After a long time, she once again asked him to have their first actual combat in the comprehensive gymnasium.

"Hmm~"

Mingyou didn't refuse again.

After all, this is the request of the seniors~

The night was long, and a group of Pokémon crowded in front of the hotel bedroom door. However, no matter how hard they tried, they could not see what was happening inside. Even Reshiram could not get a glimpse.

"Hmm!"

I want to see it, this is what I want to see!
Open the door quickly and let me see!
Pengpeng knocked on the door hard, but the content was too much for children to handle and it was too early for them. No one was allowed to watch it before they were 18 years old like humans!

"Um..."

I want to see...
