Elf, who made him the gym leader?..

Chapter 182 The Story of Tao Dailang and Ergui Yan, Gu Xin's Little Fangirl

"Tao Dai Lang... come back after a while."

Gu Xin's eyes flickered slightly as he looked at the 'incorruptible peach', and then he chuckled and passed it by. He was not in a hurry now.

For outsiders, Beishang Township is actually quite novel. After all, the customs here are completely different from those in other places.

“There seem to be a lot of these mask stalls here.”

Liliae looked curiously at the stall in front of her that had all kinds of masks on it, and picked up a yellow mask and spoke curiously.

"Because the oldest heritage in Beishang Township is the 'Mask Festival' celebration, this is a celebration that adults and children can participate in, and everyone can have a great time."

Gusin explained gently, picking up a black mask and looking at it.

"Little brother, you are an outsider, right? You know our folk customs very well."

The stall owner was a middle-aged man. He looked at Gu Xin with some surprise when he heard this.

"I have been interested in various regions since I was a child, so I know a thing or two about them." Gu Xin replied with a very polite smile.

"Haha~ You're right, little brother. The 'Mask Festival' is an ancient celebration passed down from our Beishang Township. At that time, whether locals or tourists, everyone can put on masks and have fun."

"But it's more than that. Masks have a different meaning for us in Beishang Township. Our Beishang Township has been famous for its exquisite masks since ancient times, and its fame spread overseas hundreds of years ago."

The middle-aged man spoke very proudly.

Gu Xin raised his eyebrows, a faint sneer on his lips.

"So, would you like to buy three masks? This year's Masking Festival is coming soon, and you can also wear masks to participate. My mask-making skills are quite good around here."

Seeing that Irene and Liliae were quite interested, Guxin bought three masks and the three of them prepared to continue shopping.

"Brother, your expression just now is a little bit wrong. Is it because of what that uncle said just now?"

Liliae hung the white mask diagonally on her head and asked Guxin curiously.

When the uncle just said, "Hundreds of years ago, the masks of Beishang Township were famous overseas," Gu Xin's expression changed subtly.

Because they had been together for so long and he was a considerate person, Liliae noticed this.

“It’s not that it’s wrong, but I remembered a rather funny story.” Gu Xin chuckled.

"Guxin, tell us about it." Irene became interested.

"This story will be a long one. Let me think about where to start."

Gu Xin tapped the black mask in his hand lightly and sorted out his thoughts.

"Legend has it that a long time ago, there lived an old couple somewhere. They had no children, but they took the timid Pokémon Taodailang as their own child and loved him like his own child."

Tao Dailang?
Irene and Liliae were both very confused as they had never heard of the name of this elf.

"In order to gain more love, Tao Dailang made delicious chain sticky cakes out of his poison and gave them to the old couple. The two could not resist the deliciousness of the chain sticky cakes and soon became Tao Dailang's captives."

???

Liliae's shocked expression was very cute.

"Tao Dai Lang's sticky cake seemed to expand the desires of those who ate it. As a result, the old couple began to become insatiable and asked Tao Dai Lang for all kinds of things without restraint."

"And fulfilling every request is the secret to getting more love, so Tao Dai Lang asked the Pokémon Gouzan, who was already obsessed with Chain Cake, to deliver the new clothes and Phantom Peach Fruit that the old couple wanted to their doorstep. The old couple, whose wishes were met, loved Tao Dai Lang even more."

Gu Xin narrated slowly.

"This... this is not right? This is obviously distorted, whether it's Tao Dailang who wants to show love, or the old couple who are driven by desire."

Liliae finally couldn't help but speak out. It was obvious that the relationship between the two sides had become distorted beyond recognition.

How can you feed an elderly couple sticky rice cakes with side effects just to get love?
"Yes, so this kind of relationship maintained by desire will eventually end in failure." Gu Xin nodded.

"One day, the old couple got some information from somewhere and asked Tao Dailang for a beautiful and exquisite mask that was said to be in Beishang. Tao Dailang agreed happily and set off for Beishang Township."

"Of course, you need companions when you embark on a journey. Tao Dailang left the village with the dog that was tamed by the chained sticky cake. Along the way, he also captured the wish-added monkey that was said to be able to foresee a little of the future, and the lucky pheasant that could use pheromones to fascinate the opponent."

Finally the mask!

Hearing this, Irene and Liliae became even more fascinated. The next part must be about the mask.

"Then there is another part. Before Tao Dailang set out, a man from a foreign country came to Beishang Township with a strange-looking Pokémon called Erkuei."

"But because their makeup and appearance were incompatible with the villagers, they were ostracized as aliens. The mask craftsman in the village felt sorry for them and carved four masks for the men and the evil spirits to cover their faces, and decorated them with crystal fragments."

"Under the exquisite mask, the man and the evil spirit were finally able to enter the village and have fun with everyone, and such a beautiful and exquisite mask soon became famous and spread to foreign countries."

This is the mask the old couple wanted!

After hearing this, Irene and Liliae also understood that Tao Dailang came here to seize the man and the mask of Erguilang.

"During the Masking Festival, Tao Dailang discovered the man wearing the Green Grass Mask and the Evil Spirit wearing the Foundation Stone Mask. After confirming the truth of the rumors, he began to plan to rob them."

"On a full-moon night, Gouzan Dog and Jizhiji sneaked into the cave and stole the mask, but the man came back at that moment. Gouzan Dog and Jizhiji had no choice but to fight with the man, who was thrown to the ground."

"And Gouzan Dog and Jizhi Ji hurriedly left with the three masks, leaving behind only the Green Grass Mask that the man tried his best to protect."

Too much!!!
Lilia bit her lip. This was really too much. For her own selfish desires, she destroyed other people's happiness and even hurt the man.

It is because of the mask that the man and Erguiyan can live happily here, but now this "happiness" is about to be taken away.

“But the most exciting part is here.” Gu Xin chuckled.

"Tao Dai Lang was very happy to get the three masks, thinking that the old couple would love him even more. However, the furious Er Gui Yan had already arrived in front of them wearing the last Green Grass Mask." "But in front of the extremely angry Er Gui Yan, Gou Zan Dog, Ji Zhi Ji, and Yuan Zeng Yuan were all knocked to the ground."

"Without the protection of Gouzangou and the others, Taodailang was finally severely injured by Erguiyan and fell to the ground, rolling to an unknown place. The injured Erguiyan returned to the Terror Cave alone in sorrow."

Hearing this, Liliae breathed a sigh of relief, otherwise the man and Eruption would have been too pitiful.

Awesome! Erguiyan is so awesome!

“But in fact, the battle at that time attracted a lot of villagers. They were unaware of the situation and saw only the furious appearance of Erkuei, who looked like a demon, and they were very scared.”

Gusin shook his head.

"They were ignorant and thought that it was Gouzan Dog, Yuanzeng Monkey and Ji Pheasant who protected them from the clutches of the devil, so they affectionately called them precious companions and buried them with great honor."

"what???"

Irene and Lilia were both shocked when they heard this.

"They treated the bandits as heroes? And gave them a lavish burial?"

Irene was stunned. How could there be such a foolish person? ! The most innocent people from the beginning to the end were obviously that man and Ergui.

"Not only that, in fact, they were not only buried with great ceremony, but they even built stone statues for them."

Suddenly, a helpless female voice came into the ears of the three people.

Gu Xin turned his head and saw three figures, one of whom was quite familiar.

"Master Gu Xin! It's really you."

Zi Yu, who was wearing a pink long coat, had her eyes lit up. She trotted to Gu Xin in surprise, her words full of surprise.

"Ms. Ziyu, why are you here?" Gu Xin looked at Ziyu in surprise.

"Because Danyu and Wuli were going home to visit their relatives, I came with them to Beishang Township to take a look."

"Lilia, long time no see~"

Zi Yu smiled sweetly and waved hello to Liliae.

"Sister Ziyu, long time no see~"

Actually, it wasn’t long, less than a month.

Lilia looked at Zi Yu curiously, but she felt that a lot of time had passed since their last trip to Unova.

"I heard from my father that before you left Unova, you, Gym Leader Guxin, captured the leader of Team Plasma! You are indeed too strong!"

Zi Yu was very excited, her beautiful big eyes were sparkling with stars, she looked exactly like a little fangirl.

This made Danyu and Wuli, the brother and sister behind Ziyu, look quite strange.

Because in Blueberry Academy, Ziyu is a relatively serious type, and is also one of the four kings of the academy alliance. Usually, everyone respects Senior Ziyu.

but……

Wu Li secretly looked at Gu Xin, his eyes somewhat curious yet timid.

"It's just a piece of cake, and it was the Plasma Team who came to us on their own initiative." Gu Xin replied modestly with a smile.

"By the way, are these two your junior students?"

Seeing that Ziyu seemed to ignore Danyu and the others because of the joy of reunion, Gu Xin asked Ziyu.

"Ah~ Sorry, sorry, I actually forgot about you, Danyu."

Zi Yu was stunned for a moment, then turned around and spoke to Dan Yu and the others with an apologetic look.

"It's okay, Senior Ziyu, who is this?" Danyu looked at Gu Xin curiously.

She could probably understand Ziyu. After all, looking at Ziyu's expression just now, she probably understood that this handsome man might be Ziyu's idol.

"Mr. Guxin, the gym leader of the Rota gym in the Kanto region, is a very, very powerful and excellent gym leader. He is my idol."

Zi Yu introduced them to the two with a faint smile, and expressed her admiration for Gu Xin without any hesitation.

After that gym battle, she became Gu Xin's little fan girl. She still has the Rota badge on her bracelet now, and she takes good care of it every day and loves it very much.

"Master Guxin, these two are my schoolmates. This one is Danyu and this one is Wuli. They are both from Beishang Township."

"I also came to Beishang Township with them to take a look."

Ziyu also introduced Wuli and Danyu to Guxin.

"Hello."

Gu Xin greeted the two with a smile, his eyes focused on the thin young man in white.

Wu Li's face is actually quite pretty, but because of that weird hairstyle, the two black bangs on his forehead cross and reach directly to his nose, which directly causes his appearance to drop rapidly.

Gu Xin raised his eyebrows at the weak-looking Wu Li. This guy was not as harmless as he seemed.

Compared to Danyu, Wuli's talent as a trainer actually far exceeds that of her sister. In the original work, after Wuli made up her mind to become stronger, her strength began to soar.

Become a champion-level trainer in one leap!
and……

This is the ruthless guy in the game who conquered the third god of "Scarlet/Purple", Tailebagos, with a Master Ball!
Well, although the little turtle lost control in the end and his Master Ball was broken.

Ps: I will update the first chapter today. After much thought, I decided to briefly write about the grudge between Tao Dai Lang and Er Gui Yan. Many readers may not understand them.
