Pokémon: All About the Breeding House

Chapter 523 Traditional Chinese Medicine Made from Mushroom Spores

Watching the last batch of Paras and Parasters being sent away, Fang Yan, holding Miss Qun'er, said regretfully, "It's a pity, those forests that they drained will probably be hard to restore to their original state."

"Don't worry, Manager Fang, I'll bring people to replant the trees in a while."

Lijia, who was standing nearby, spoke up.

"That's even better. Thank you for your hard work." Fang Yan glanced at the forest, which had been revitalized with Miss Qun'er's help, and murmured softly, "It would be such a pity if such a beautiful forest were to disappear like this."

Lijia paused for a moment, then chuckled softly.

Miss Skirt murmured in Fang Yan's arms. Fang Yan looked down and found that it had opened its eyes at some point. When it saw him looking at it, it covered its mouth and chuckled.

Fang Yan put Miss Qun'er down, and then, taking advantage of Miss Qun'er's inattention, swung his arms.

Miss Skirt's love is also very deep and meaningful.

Of course, Fang Yan only dared to say this in his heart and did not dare to say it to Miss Qun'er's face.

Seeing Miss Gothic looking at him with eager eyes, Fang Yan walked to Professor Oak's side and said, "Now that things are resolved, Professor Oak, I'll head back to the Sinnoh region."

Professor Oak paused for a moment, then asked, "So soon? Won't you stay for a simple meal?"

Fang Yan shrugged, walked over to Professor Oak, and whispered, "Professor Oak, look over there."

Professor Oak looked towards Gothic, where it was floating back and forth in the air.

"It harvested a lot of mushroom spores from Paraster. It is said that these mushroom spores have the effects of traditional Chinese medicine, so it wants to go back to the breeding house as soon as possible to study whether these mushroom spores are really a kind of traditional Chinese medicine."

"As you know, Miss Goethe is most interested in Chinese medicine and the like."

"I see. Well then, I won't keep you for dinner. Leave the rest to us. I was just about to investigate why there's been such a large and unusual appearance of these Paralas and Parasters."

"Okay, then remember to send me a copy of the results after you've done your investigation."

"rest assured."

"Call me anytime if you have any questions."

"it is good."

"Oh, by the way, please say goodbye to Granny Orange for me. I'll come back next time I have time to learn how to raise Gengar from her."

After saying that, Fang Yan reached out and opened the reverse passage, pulling Gengar, who was still lying on the ground looking for mushrooms, inside.

After saying goodbye to Professor Oak, Nine-Tails and the others followed Fang Yan's footsteps and entered the Reverse Path.

Inside the reverse channel.

Alcremie, Meowth, Monini, Meloetta, Victini, and Snorlax are feeding Giratina.

Wait, is there something strange mixed in?

"Little Snorlax, what are you doing in here?"

"Card----"

So full ————

dialect:----

"You rascal, so you didn't come in to feed them, you came in to eat them, huh?"

Fang Yan walked over to the little Munchlax lying on the ground, stretched out his foot and kicked its body, and the little Munchlax showed a satisfied smile on its face.

"Nini~"

Monini ran to Fang Yan's feet, skillfully grabbed Fang Yan's thigh, climbed onto his body, and then sat down on his shoulder.

"What brings you here today? Isn't the cafeteria busy?"

Fang Yan reached out and pinched its red nose, asking softly.

"Nini~"

Not busy~

While Fang Yan and Monini were talking, Meloetta sat on Fang Yan's other shoulder, while Victini, who was a step behind, could only make do and perch on Fang Yan's head.

"Hey! Little V, just how happy have you been lately?! You're making me so stressed I can barely lift my head!"

Feeling the immense weight coming back up to his head, Fang Yan felt like his neck was about to break.

He reached out and lifted Victini off his head. Looking at Victini, who had clearly gained weight, Fang Yan said with exasperation, "Look at you! How were you when you first came to the nursery? So slim and cute! And look at you now, you can barely fly!"

"You'll regret it when you end up like Latias!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Giratina, who was eating, shifted his position, and then a figure flew past him.

Victini plopped down on her bottom with a "Duang!" and sat on the floor tiles, looking around with a puzzled expression.

"Tini?"

What's going on? Where's the dialect?

Meloetta gracefully landed on the back of the Nine-Tailed Fox, and then sat on it.

Monini was protected by her sister's mental power and floated in the air.

On the other side, Fang Yan was headbutted by Latias and sent flying into the Inverted World, landing squarely on the grass in the backyard of the breeding center.

Watching Latias ascend straight to the sky, Fang Yan rolled around a few times to the side, then kept begging for forgiveness: "I was wrong, I was wrong, Latias, I just misspoke, please be magnanimous and don't hold it against me, okay?"

"Apologize afterwards? Too late!"

Dr. Mustard, who was drinking tea in the garden, frowned as he watched Fang Yan being chased around by Latias. He then turned his back to Fang Yan and continued drinking his tea, while stroking Patchlitz, who was holding a tree fruit in his arms.

In the end, it was Cynthia who intervened and saved Fangyan from being murdered by Latias.

"You keep saying I'm fat, did I eat your rice or something—"

Seeing Fang Yan's "what else?" expression, Latias swallowed his words again.

It seems that the rice we ate was indeed from their family's farm.

"So what if I ate your rice?"

Latias questioned Fang Yan in a nonsensical manner, while Fang Yan shook his head frantically, "No, what I meant was, you can eat whatever you want, and I'll go buy more when you're done."

Latias then gave a satisfied hum and took Meloetta out to sea for a trip.

"I don't want to talk to you. I'm going out. I'll be back when it's time to eat."

"Okay, baby Latias."

Upon hearing the dialect, Latias staggered slightly before speeding away from the breeding house.

"I was so scared, I thought I was really going to die this time."

Watching Latias's disappearing figure, Fang Yan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, thinking that he was really going to be run over and killed by Latias this time.

"Serves you right for constantly provoking it."

Cynthia rolled her eyes at him and said, "Is it resolved?"

Fang Yan nodded and walked to the garden with Cynthia to sit down. Cynthia poured him a cup of hot tea, which he drank in one gulp. He then said, "It was Paras and Paraster who caused this. If it had been discovered a few days later, Viridian Forest would probably have been severely damaged."

"Paralas and Paraster? I never thought they could cause forests to wither—"

Mrs. Fujino, standing to the side, said with a trembling heart.

"In fact, if any Pokémon gathers in large numbers and exceeds the capacity of the surrounding environment, it can easily cause environmental collapse, which in turn affects other Pokémon."

Fang Yan explained it carefully from the side, and Mrs. Fujino nodded in understanding.

"Have you found the problem of the abnormally large number of cases?" Dr. Mustard asked.

Fang Yan shook her head. "Not yet. We came back early because Miss Goethe had something to do."

After speaking in dialect, he suddenly remembered something, looked up at Miss Gothic, and found that Miss Gothic had already set up a pot and was preparing to put the mushroom spores into the water to boil.

Fang Yan immediately stood up and walked over quickly.

Seeing Fang Yan's hurried departure, Dr. Mustard gently tapped the floor.

"Impatient and restless."

Cynthia smiled, said a few words to Dr. Mustard, and then got up and left, heading towards Fangyan.

"What are these?"

Cynthia looked at the mushroom spores on the table and asked a question in confusion.

"These are mushroom spores that fell from Paraster's body. They are said to have medicinal properties, so I'm going to verify them with Miss Goth."

Fang Yan looked up and winked at Cynthia.

"What about Gengar?"

Cynthia naturally ignored the dialect wink, looked at the mushroom that Gengar was fiddling with, and asked.

"That's a mushroom on Paras's back. I heard it has medicinal value, but it seems to need to be dried first."

77

Fang Yan approached Cynthia and whispered in her ear, "It is said to prolong life."

Cynthia felt a tickle near her ear, so she quickly distanced herself from Fang Yan and gestured with her eyes towards Dr. Mustard.

Fang Yan regretfully turned his attention back to the mushroom spores in front of him.

"Gurgle gurgle~"

The sound of boiling came from the pot. Fang Yan reached out and opened the lid, only to find that the Chinese medicine inside had turned green.

Looking at the Chinese medicine that resembled a witch's potion, Fang Yan and Miss Goth exchanged a glance.

Actually, this is acceptable, the main thing is————

The pot used to boil the Chinese medicine was somewhat worn out, and the flames burning underneath were an eerie blue-purple.

A black pot, blue-purple flames, and green liquid.

Fang Yan scratched his neck but didn't say anything.

This doesn't look like traditional Chinese medicine at all, does it?

And with the Gothic lady floating beside her, in her black court dress and big blue eyes, she's practically a shrine maiden, all she needs is a hat.

Cynthia, standing nearby, also felt the scene was somewhat eerie. She and Garchomp looked at each other and fell silent.

"Kou Jie?"

What is this? It looks like poison.

What they dared not say was spoken by Gengar, who had just laid out the mushrooms to dry.

As soon as Gengar finished speaking, its large buttocks suddenly tightened.

? !

It looked at Fang Yan with a face full of terror.

"Mouth—Mouth Jie?"

Did I say something wrong?

Fang Yan turned his body away, his back to it, as if to say, "I don't know you."

Gengar struggled to turn its head and found that Miss Gothic had somehow appeared behind it, smiling at it.

Gengar forced a smile and rubbed his chubby little hands together.

"Kou Jie—"

That—Miss Gothic—ah—eh—

Under the influence of mental energy, Gengar changed shape like clay, eventually spinning around in circles on the grass in a daze before collapsing onto the ground.

"Goth?"

What should we do now?

Miss Gothic inquired about the dialect.

Fang Yan paused for a moment, touched his nose, and said, "Generally, to determine whether something is a traditional Chinese medicine, you only need to confirm its effects."

"Goth?"

But isn't the prerequisite for confirming the effect consuming it? Is this stuff really safe to eat? Won't it cause poisoning?

Miss Gothic actually felt uncertain about the outcome as well.

Fang Yan grinned at it, "Whether we get poisoned or not, we're not afraid, are we?"

Miss Gothic instantly understood the meaning of the dialect.

After Gengar regained consciousness, it found itself surrounded by Fang Yan, Cynthia, Gothic, Skirtie, Ninetales, and Garchomp.

"Mouth—Mouth Jie?"

What do you want to do to me? Let me tell you, I'm not just any Pokémon—

Fang Yan reached out and grabbed its mouth, pulling it to both sides before letting go. He then pointed at the "crucible" beside him and raised an eyebrow at it.

Gengar: (

I?

The people and Pokémon around them nodded in unison, as if by telepathy.

Gengar: (ǒǒ)

This is... this is repaying kindness with enmity! What if it's poisonous? I'm just...

Gengar, sobbing, took out his snacks and handed them to Garchomp.

"Kou Jie"

If I leave, please take care of these snacks.

Garchomp looked puzzled but secretly delighted as it accepted the snack and nodded to Gengar.

"You—you're a Poison-type Pokémon, and you're afraid of mushroom poison? How many have you eaten in the forest?!"

"Kou Jie"

Oh right, I think I'm a Poison-type Pokémon. Sorry, I've been watching too many TV dramas lately, haha.

Gengar grinned, then tried to do a somersault—but failed to stand up.

Fang Yan took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to kick Gengar, and reached out to pull it up. This guy has really been getting more and more dramatic lately.

"Stop acting. We'll film a new episode of 'Changing Gengar' for you another day. Save it for when you perform."

"Goblin!"

It's a deal!

After saying that, Gengar happily floated over to the black pot, picked up a large spoon and put it into the Chinese medicine, then ladled out a large bowlful and gulped it all down in one go.

Fang Yan and the others focused all their attention on Gengar.

After finishing a spoonful, Gengar blinked, looked down at its big belly, patted it, then ladled out another bowl and gulped it down in one go.

After a while, Fang Yan spoke up: "How does it feel, Gengar?"

Gengar put down the bowl, returned to Fangyan, and smacked its lips.

"Kou Jie"

It doesn't taste good, it's bitter, but it doesn't seem to be poisonous.

Have you noticed any changes in your body?

"口桀"

It felt warm, and I felt a bit better. My breathing became much easier, and it even seemed to help with digestion.

When Gengar uttered its last words, everyone and the Pokémon present were shocked.

Fang Yan grabbed Cynthia's hand and ran away into the distance, while Miss Goth and the others also ran off on their own.

For Gengar, aiding digestion means —

"Pfft!"

The sounds continued incessantly.

The Gramcidia flowers in the flowerbed began to shake violently, as if trying to purify the air.

In the battle between Grancia and Gengar, Gengar actually showed signs of gaining the upper hand over Grancia.

"Gengar! You get outside right now, immediately! Come back inside after you've deflated completely!"

Hearing the dialect, Gengar patted its belly, floated to the Chinese medicine, poured in some sweet liquid, and then drank it all.

We must not waste! Wasting is a bad habit.

After drinking, it floated out of the breeding house and found a quiet forest.

Not long after.

The surrounding forest is teeming with escaped Pokémon.

Help! ! !

Can anyone do something about this Gengar?
