Trainer? I'm just an ordinary hot spring owner.

【Enjoy the beautiful scenery in the town and your mood will improve】

【Wandering around the town, my mood improved】

【Visited the Sanboban Shrine and learned some of the history of Kitakami Township】

[Get new information: Good dog, wish for more monkeys, lucky pheasant]

Praise the dog enough, wish to add a monkey, lucky pheasant?

I've never heard of this Pokémon... Kitakami Township...? What is that place? Is there such a region in Pokémon?

Could it be some DLC content?

Jiang Cheng continued reading with doubts: [Leaving the town and traveling to the mountains and forests]

[You encountered a strange black shadow in the forest. You threw out peach fruit as bait and it ran away successfully.]

[Attracted attention from certain beings]

【End of the trip】

Wow, I'm so surprised, what a peach fruit to lure the enemy.

Can you use this thing as bait?

I was able to dodge before, but this time I have to use peach fruit as bait to escape? Could it be that I encountered the so-called evil ghost?

Why didn't you take a picture of it? I'm such a flyer!

Jiang Cheng couldn't help but feel heartbroken.

Forget it, at least I got some new information.

Beishang Township.....Great dogs, and willing monkeys, and are there any lucky pheasants?

Jiang Cheng exited the system, opened the Internet and started searching for information about Beishang Township and the three elves.

As expected, there was no news at all about these three elves, but there was indeed a result in Beishang Township.

The search results led to a travel advertisement that contained a travel guide to the small town of Kitakami Township and the legend of the Sanbaoban Shrine in Kitakami Township. Apart from that, there was no other relevant information.

Jiang Cheng followed the legend of Sanbaoban in Beishang Township and started searching, and finally he found some information about the evil ghost.

There is a legend about the place called Beishang Township, about Sanbaoban, and what exactly this evil ghost is.

While Jiang Cheng was still diligently reading about the Three Treasures, a reminder sounded quietly.

[The evil ghost in the mountain has come to the healing hall. Please pay attention to find it and heal it at the same time]

[Note: Evil spirits are dangerous, please pay attention to your actions and ensure your own safety]

Chapter 97: First Encounter with the Evil Ghost

Through inquiries, Jiang Cheng gradually understood the legend of the Three Treasures of Kitakami Township. Generally speaking, it is a replica of the story of Momotaro defeating the evil spirit, except that in this story, the evil spirit is there, and the monkey, puppy and chicken that Momotaro met on the road are also there, but Momotaro himself is nowhere to be seen.

Moreover, the puppy, chicken and monkey look like three idiots...

Is this really a legitimate Pokémon?

Moreover, according to the legend, the evil spirit in the mountain suddenly went crazy, and the three Pokémon fought desperately with it and eventually died. The villagers erected statues in their memory. This matter reveals a strange feeling no matter how you look at it.

Why did the evil ghost on the mountain go crazy?

As a viewer of the Pokémon animation and an old player of the game, I may not say that I know a lot about Pokémon, but I know a fair bit about it. Generally speaking, Pokémon won't go crazy easily. There's usually someone or something behind their madness. There are almost no Pokémon that are born just for the pleasure of fighting.

Based on his understanding of Pokémon, a children's series, there must be some unknown reason behind the madness of this mountain demon.

But when Yi Dashan came down the mountain, he killed all three of them. This evil ghost was really a bit violent...

While Jiang Cheng was still frantically analyzing, he suddenly received a prompt from the system, informing him that the evil ghost in the mountains had come to his hot spring spa!

"Oh my god!" Jiang Cheng was suddenly shocked. This... this is not right?

Although your notice also said that evil spirits would appear randomly in the mountains, I just finished my trip and you came right after me. Isn’t that a bit too coincidental?

Could it be that... the peach fruits I threw before... not only failed to divert the enemy, but also led the imperial army?

It’s over, it’s over, it’s over. This...this, this...what should I do?

No, calm down... calm down. Now is not the time to be anxious. There are still two people in this hot spring. I must find the evil ghost as soon as possible. Whether it is a battle or communication, I have to contact it first. Don't let it run to Liliae and the others. That would be bad.

The trouble you have caused must not affect others.

Jiang Cheng quickly opened the system interface and took out a flashlight. He looked everywhere on the system map while also walking around the hot spring hall.

"What?" Zhen Yifa was a little curious. Why was this guy not sleeping and wandering around the house?

"Shh...Flutter, keep your voice down." Jiang Cheng raised his index finger and shushed several times, signaling Flutter to try not to make any noise: "There's a new Pokémon in our hot springs. I'm looking for it. Flutter, come and help me find it..."

"Fa? Fa!" Zhen Yifa was confused at first, and then he became furious. Who dares to come to my territory and steal?

Immediately, the angry Flutterfat also began to search the house.

However, after searching for a long time, the two still did not see any shadow.

"How could it be gone?" Jiang Cheng touched the back of his head: "Could it be that this evil ghost can become invisible?"

I felt relieved when I couldn't find it. At least I didn't see any evil ghosts in the residential area, which was a good thing.

He decided to expand the search range and look in the backyard and front yard. Soon, Jiang Cheng found something wrong.

There seems to be a strange dark shadow among the green plants in the backyard.

After all, it's the system. The pixel module looks convenient, but he may not be able to find the problem even if he checks it himself. Behind a bush, there are several unnatural protrusions.

I tried clicking it and it responded.

[You found the trace of the evil spirit]

So it was hiding here. This evil ghost is quite interesting. It hides when it sees people. It is completely different from the image I described before...

Jiang Cheng thought to himself that before this, his image of evil spirits was always like that of the Night Demon, a burly character with a horse running on his arms and a mountain on his shoulders, who looked like someone who was not easy to mess with.

After all, although Guazangou, Yuanzengyuan and Jijiji looked a little sorry, they looked strong and could beat these three Pokémon to death. In Jiang Cheng's mind, a picture of a huge strong man holding down three Pokémon hammers appeared.

But, looking at this system image, this shadow hiding in the bushes...this height...seems to be even shorter than Flutterwing?

Is this Soo-jin's evil spirit? Could it be a mistake?

As soon as this thought came up, Jiang Cheng cut it off: "No, how can you speculate about Pokémon with such an idea? A big head doesn't mean anything. Don't look at the small body size. What if it is the type of Jerry's cousin?"

Anyway, let's go check it out...

Jiang Cheng thought about it and decided to call Zhen Yifa along, at least to give him courage.

Arriving at the backyard, Jiang Cheng followed the interface on the system, shone a flashlight, and found the location where the evil ghost was hiding. Sure enough, he saw something abnormal behind the bushes.

The main thing is, whose leaves reflect light?

Wow, I don't know what the attributes of this evil ghost are. It's like a diamond. When I shine the flashlight on it, its pants flash with colorful rainbow light.

The moment Zhen Yifa saw the other party, he wanted to rush up to drive him away, but was stopped by Jiang Cheng: "Zhen Yifa, don't be anxious. Let me talk to him, it's not too late for you to go up later. Maybe the person is just lost." The main reason was that they were not sure about the strength of the evil ghost. It would be bad if Zhen Yifa went up and got injured.

Seeing that the evil ghost didn't make any moves, and Admiral Zhen Yifa was eager to try beside him, Jiang Cheng became a little bolder and said with gritted teeth.

"How...are you...?"

The evil ghost flinched.

What a socially anxious devil, that's not right... We can't judge Pokémon by its appearance and actions, what if it's like the Pokémon in black, waving is actually a warning?

"Um... I see you, do you need any help?"

The figure of the evil spirit remained unmoved.

After much deliberation, Jiang Cheng decided to use his ultimate secret: feeding.

After searching the warehouse for a while, Jiang Cheng took out the cherry fruit he had just bought two days ago, put it on the ground, raised his hands and slowly stepped back: "Well, if you are hungry, I have some food here. I'll put it here for you. If you want to eat, you can come and get it."

The evil ghost seemed to be tempted.

"Don't be afraid, I don't have any bad intentions. Look, I don't have anything in my hand, I won't pose any threat to you..."

Jiang Cheng retreated to a position he thought was safe and slowly persuaded him.

Finally, the evil ghost seemed to be persuaded by Jiang Cheng, or perhaps it was really hungry, and slowly crawled out of the bushes.

At this moment, Jiang Cheng finally saw its full picture.

[Unlocked new information: Errachievous]

Chapter 98: First Touch

Evil spirit?

It was indeed a name he had never heard of before, but Jiang Cheng was not in the mood to pay attention to this now. He was concentrating on looking at the "evil ghost" in front of him.

The first thing I noticed was that this "evil ghost" was unexpectedly small, probably less than 1.2 meters tall, even smaller than the flying eagle.

Although I had expected it to be small, I was still a little surprised to see it in person.

The body seems to be covered with a green quilt cloak, and two green leaves playfully stick out from the two cute little feet, as if they were wearing a pair of clogs.

The thing that looks most like an evil spirit is probably the strange mask with a wild laugh on it.

Without that mask, she's just a little girl!

Moreover, from the other party's appearance, Jiang Cheng recognized at a glance that it was most likely a grass-type Pokémon.

Could a grass-type Pokémon be an evil spirit? In this type, each one is either a lazy dog ​​or a strong man, or a spoiled girlfriend. Pokémon in this type can't be bad at all, right?

Oh, except for that monkey Gouhao.

Maybe Jiang Cheng is really a beauty lover. After seeing this evil ghost, he no longer felt any fear in his heart: "It's okay, it's safe here. I have some delicious cherry fruits here, you can try them..."

After saying this, Jiang Cheng felt a little regretful. No, the cherry fruit seemed to taste spicy. Would the child be able to eat it?

"Boniao" the evil ghost called out timidly as if testing. The call was soft and gentle, with a hint of trembling in the tone, as if it was afraid of being attacked by Jiang Cheng in front of it. Its hands, covered by a small cloak, held the mask on its face, as if it was afraid that it would fall off.

Jiang Cheng seemed to feel something hit in his heart.

This evil ghost is so terrifying!!!

She is playing with mental harm! It is too dangerous!

Such a dangerous Pokémon has been hidden in Kitakami Township for so many years and is unknown to the outside world. This is simply a crime!

No, as a time traveler and a ghost expert, I have to be the one to deal with such dangerous things as evil spirits!

Jiang Cheng turned his head to look at Zhen Yifa, took out another peach fruit, picked up the cherry fruit on the ground, put it in the palm of his hand, and stretched it to the little guy: "You are... called Erguiyan, right? Come, don't be afraid, come and eat, you are very hungry, right? This is a tree fruit, very delicious! Eat it and you won't be hungry anymore..." Jiang Cheng didn't even realize how harsh his voice was just now.

"Boniao.......?" Erguiyan was a little confused. The human in front of him actually knew his name.

She saw a human in the forest, and that person dropped a peach fruit. Erguiyan picked it up and wanted to return the peach fruit to the person, but suddenly she came to a completely unfamiliar place.

Erguiyan didn't know where this place was, but she knew that this was the territory of humans.

Eruption has complicated feelings towards humans.

She likes humans. She likes humans, their lively celebrations, the lights that light up in the dark mountains and forests, the colorful clothes that people wear, and the strange masks they wear.

But those humans would only call themselves ghosts, evil ghosts...When they saw themselves, they would only run away in fear, or curse and throw stones at themselves...telling themselves to get out.

This makes Eruption somewhat afraid of humans.

She doesn't like the feeling of being disliked.

But she has also become accustomed to the feeling of being hated. As long as she doesn't go to human gathering places, she can go to the deep mountains far away from humans, go to bed early before their celebrations, and go into the terror cave when it gets dark. Don't care, don't pay attention. The difficult time is only a few hours, and it will be over as long as she falls asleep.

If you really can't help it, just... take a sneak peek. If you see humans, just run away. This way you won't be chased away.

But this time it was different. Eruption entered a completely unfamiliar place, and it was near a human house!

This made her panic. She wanted to escape, but she couldn't find the way. The mountains she once was familiar with were gone. This place was not any place she knew. Where should she run to?
