Pokémon Dimensional Hunter - A Visual Mishaps

Zhao Xuan didn't say much and silently walked forward.

For the rest of the journey, Jiang Tianhao and Xuanzi remained tacitly silent, not exchanging a single word. The weather was simply too abnormal; the blazing sun, like a giant fireball, hung high in the sky, relentlessly unleashing its heat.

The earth was scorching hot, as if it could emit smoke, and the air became unusually hot; every breath felt like inhaling a ball of fire.

The two felt as if they had been placed in a giant steamer, their bodies soaked in sweat, the sticky feeling making them extremely uncomfortable, and so hot that they didn't even have the strength to speak.

After walking a few more miles, the scenery suddenly changed after rounding the mountain pass, opening up into a wide-open space.

Looking out, the first thing that catches the eye is a vast, gently sloping valley. This valley is like a piece of jade meticulously sculpted by nature, flat and expansive. Surrounding mountains encircle it, as if framing it with a green border. A clear stream, like a winding jade ribbon, flows gently from between the rolling green hills.

The stream was crystal clear, shimmering with silver light under the sun, and occasionally a few small fish could be seen swimming freely in it. The stones in the stream were smooth and rounded by the water, scattered on the bottom of the stream of different sizes, making a crisp and pleasant sound as they were hit by the current.

Large tracts of land have been cultivated on the flat ground on both sides of the stream. The crops in the fields are growing well, a lush green expanse. When the breeze blows, the wheat waves roll, like a green ocean.

Along the ridges of the fields, countless wildflowers, some red, some yellow, and some purple, dotted the landscape, adding a vibrant splash of color to the green fields.

Occasionally, you can see a few farmers working in the fields, bending over and diligently cultivating the land, their focused expressions seemingly engaged in a silent dialogue with the soil.

At the edge of the horizon, nestled at the foot of the green hills, houses stand in rows. These houses are scattered in a pleasing, staggered pattern, some ancient dwellings with gray bricks and tiles, others newly built red-brick houses. Wisps of smoke rise slowly from the rooftops, drifting in the air and releasing a faint, warm aroma.

The sounds of chickens and dogs drifted faintly from afar, like a harmonious rural symphony. This place was clearly a large village, full of life and vitality.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Tianhao's eyes lit up instantly, and his face flushed with excitement. He opened his mouth and shouted with all his might, "Xuanzi!! Look!! There's a village ahead!! That's wonderful!" His voice echoed through the valley for a long time.

At this moment, Jiang Tianhao was even happier than if he had obtained a pseudo-legendary Pokémon. He had almost gone crazy along the way.

This journey was even more arduous than his battles with a group of demons and monsters.

Seeing the village ahead, how could he not be happy?

Actually, Zhao Xuan had already seen it long ago, even without Jiang Tianhao saying it.

Looking at the village ahead, Zhao Xuan exclaimed, "This place is nestled between mountains and water. The green mountains behind it form a natural barrier, blocking the biting winter winds and conserving water. It's truly a treasure!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Tianhao exclaimed in surprise, "Xuanzi, when did you learn feng shui?"

"Do we even need to know feng shui? Just look at the location. It's a beautiful place with clear waters and lush mountains; you can tell it's a good spot at a glance," Zhao Xuan said with a smile.

"Tch~~" Jiang Tianhao scoffed upon hearing this.

He thought his brothers knew feng shui?

As the two were talking, they had already arrived at the village entrance along the winding bluestone path.

Looking around, the village is built at the foot of the mountain and is quite large. Outside the village, a high wall made of large blue bricks surrounds the entire village.

The village gate is also a two-story gatehouse built of blue bricks, which looks magnificent from a distance. The patterns on the blue bricks are clearly visible, as if telling the story of the past. There are also several lookout windows on the second floor, which are like a pair of vigilant eyes, always watching the movements outside the village.

Standing by the second-floor window, the view is extremely expansive, offering a panoramic view of the surrounding village. From distant mountains to winding paths, everything is clearly visible.

Ten steps apart along the high wall on either side of the gate tower, there is a three-story watchtower on each side. These watchtowers stand like two majestic giants at the entrance of the village... The watchtowers are solid and heavy in appearance, and each floor has a different function.

The firing ports, large and small, are scattered across the surface, some as big as a bowl and others as small as a coin.

These firing ports are like the weapons of a fortified tower, capable of playing a crucial role in critical moments. Looking out from the firing ports, the outside world seems to be divided into small pieces, giving one a sense of control over the entire situation.

"Good heavens, this is definitely a village, not a fortified village!" From a distance, Jiang Tianhao saw someone on the gatehouse with a rifle, looking over warily.

“It’s only a dozen kilometers away from Shennongjia. It’s not surprising that we’re taking such precautions, since we don’t have to flee.” Zhao Xuan expressed his understanding. After all, if it were an ordinary village, it would probably have been moved away by now, given what happened in Shennongjia.

“That’s true. Let’s go in. I want to try the food of this world.” Jiang Tianhao nodded in agreement.

Then, he and Zhao Xuan continued walking forward.

However, before Zhao Xuan and Jiang Tianhao could get close, a loud voice came from the gatehouse asking, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"

Upon hearing the voice, Zhao Xuan and Jiang Tianhao looked up and saw a young man holding a long spear, looking at them warily.

Zhao Xuan: "We're just passing through and would like to rest in your village for the night."

The young man sized up Zhao Xuan and Jiang Tianhao.

At this moment, Zhao Xuan and Jiang Tianhao were both wearing off-road gear, and their faces still had a touch of youthfulness and delicate skin, which made the young man lower his guard.

Although Zhao Xuan and Jiang Tianhao were dressed somewhat strangely, their skin and healthy complexions clearly indicated that they were not from ordinary families, but rather scions of aristocratic clans.

However, the young man still didn't let Zhao Xuan and his companion enter the village. Instead, he said, "Wait a moment, I need to inform the young lady."

After the young man finished saying 4.2, he prepared to leave, but before he could leave, a clear female voice reached everyone's ears.

"Please let the two young masters in."

Zhao Xuan and Jiang Tianhao looked over upon hearing the voice and were immediately taken aback to find that the person who had come was a beautiful woman.

This woman has extremely beautiful features, with long, narrow phoenix eyes, eyebrows that reach her temples, and a tall, slender figure.

She looked to be in her early twenties, with her hair styled in a beautiful bun, her long, black hair cascading down like a waterfall, and wearing a moon-white long dress. She was as graceful as jade.

As the setting sun cast its rays, its beauty was like snow piled on flowering trees, or a halo around a new moon—truly a unique sight on earth!

"Damn! Xuanzi, am I seeing things?" Jiang Tianhao said, dumbfounded.

Although Zhao Xuan was somewhat surprised that such a beautiful woman had appeared here, it was just a pleasant surprise; it wasn't like he hadn't seen beautiful women before.

"Haozi, can you please stop making that face?" Zhao Xuan said speechlessly.

Then they walked into the village.

Chapter Sixty-Eight: Waveguides Reside in My Heart

The stunningly beautiful woman on the city wall had fair skin that glowed softly in the moonlight. Her delicate features were as if sculpted by a master craftsman, and her beautiful eyes were like deep, cold pools, exuding an unfathomable mystery.

At this moment, she was coldly watching Zhao Xuan and Jiang Tianhao enter the village, a barely perceptible hint of sinister intent flashing in her eyes. Then, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, revealing an extremely eerie smile, a smile that seemed to come from the deepest hell, sending chills down one's spine.

She turned slightly to the side and whispered a few words to the young man beside her. Her voice was low and hoarse. The young man nodded slightly, his eyes revealing a hint of awe.

Then, the stunningly beautiful woman turned and slowly walked away, her figure gradually blurring in the sunset, as if she had never existed.

As the last rays of the setting sun, like a flame about to be extinguished, slowly sank below the horizon, the entire land seemed to be instantly pulled into an endless abyss of darkness by an invisible hand.

Darkness, like a surging tide, spread rapidly, engulfing everything within it. In the village, on the once silent streets, lanterns began to light up one by one. The dim, yellow light flickered in the darkness, like eyes silently watching everything unfold in Darkness 22.

However, none of that is the most important thing. The most important thing is that these lanterns are all white. In the traditional beliefs of Yanhua, white often represents death and misfortune.

On each white lantern, a large "尊" (zun, meaning honor or esteem) character was written in bright red paint. The red was so vivid, like freshly flowed blood, that it stood out starkly against the white lanterns. Under the cover of night, these white lanterns appeared particularly eerie and terrifying, as if concealing countless untold secrets.

Suddenly, a cold wind blew by, and the large white lantern swayed gently in the breeze, making a rustling sound that echoed in the silent night sky, sending chills down one's spine.

The swaying lanterns looked like ghosts dancing in the darkness, their shadows twisting and deforming on the ground as if countless invisible hands were manipulating them.

Of course, Zhao Xuan saw all of this clearly.

It should be noted that his wave-guiding power is most adept at detection; during the day, Zhao Xuan had not sensed anything wrong with the village.

Since it was broad daylight, he didn't suspect anything was wrong with the village, and given his own strength, Zhao Xuan didn't use his wave-guiding power to investigate.

But as soon as night fell, Zhao Xuan noticed something was wrong with the village. After the last rays of the setting sun disappeared, the temperature in the village dropped rapidly. Most importantly, in Zhao Xuan's view, the village was filled with a dense aura of yin energy.

"Xuanzi, the temperature difference between day and night is too big. Even I feel cold." Jiang Tianhao complained.

Looking at Jiang Tianhao, who showed no vigilance whatsoever, Zhao Xuan said speechlessly, "Haozi, it's a good thing you weren't alone, otherwise you wouldn't even know when you'd die. Look out the window."

As Zhao Xuan spoke, he stepped aside to let Jiang Tianhao see what was happening outside.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Tianhao looked out the window with a puzzled expression. He saw a white mist outside the window, and two other objects that seemed to be floating and drifting forward.

Moreover, the two men were dressed in red robes, like a groom.

But most importantly, Jiang Tianhao knew those two people.

"Xuanzi, are those two people the disciples of that Taoist Master Lin?"

In fact, even without Jiang Tianhao saying it, Zhao Xuan had already sensed it from the power of the wave guide. After all, Zhao Xuan could recognize the fluctuations on Qiu Sheng and Wen Sheng.

Moreover, it wasn't just Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai whose fluctuations were present, but also Uncle Jiu's.

Aura power also possesses a variety of special functions, including telepathy, protective shields, aura missiles, generating air currents, sensing objects, and even life-saving abilities (such as rescuing Mewtwo).

The essence of Aura Force is a kind of bio-energy that exists within all humans and some Pokémon.

It is not a superpower, but a power that can only be mastered through training and belief. Lucario's often-quoted phrase, "The waveguide resides within me," is more like a language of belief than a specific description of energy.

In other words, the stronger the belief, the stronger the waveguide.

However, even so, a strong body is still required, otherwise it would be impossible to support that enormous waveguide power.

Just like Ash in the anime, even with powerful aura, he can't use it; this is the body's self-protection mechanism.

"Not only are Master Lin's two disciples there, but Master Lin himself is also present." Zhao Xuan gestured for Jiang Tianhao to look at the rooftop opposite.

Jiang Tianhao looked at the rooftop that Zhao Xuan pointed to and saw a dark figure lying on it. If Zhao Xuan hadn't reminded him, he probably would have instinctively moved away even if he had seen it.

After all, it was pitch black now, and Uncle Nine was dressed in a cloth robe that was almost black as well, so it was really hard to spot him unless you looked closely.

If Jiang Tianhao hadn't undergone numerous physical enhancements and possessed eyesight far superior to that of ordinary people, even if Zhao Xuan had specifically pointed him out...

Jiang Tianhao couldn't see it either.

Not only did Zhao Xuan and his companion see Uncle Jiu, but Uncle Jiu also saw Zhao Xuan and his companion.

"It's Zhao Xiaoyou and Jiang Xiaoyou." Uncle Jiu, who was lying on the roof, was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Zhao Xuan and Jiang Tianhao would also come to this village.

However, Uncle Nine did not act rashly. After watching his two unruly disciples walk away, Uncle Nine waved to Zhao Xuan and the other two.

"Haozi, let's go see what's going on? This village feels so strange to me. There are dead people among the living, and living people among the dead. For this kind of professional matter, let's ask Master Lin, the professional."

Seeing Uncle Nine wave, Zhao Xuan thought for a moment and then spoke.

This was also what he detected using his waveguide power. The information transmitted back from his waveguide power indicated that there were many dead people in the entire village, including the inn where they were staying that day.

What he couldn't understand was how the living and the dead could live together peacefully.

“Perfect timing, I also want to know what’s going on with this village.”

Jiang Tianhao nodded.

"Whoosh! Whoosh!!" A gust of wind blew in, and two blurry figures darted out of the window, heading straight for Uncle Nine's roof.

"Tap tap..." When two crisp sounds rang out from the rooftop, Zhao Xuan and Jiang Tianhao had already landed in front of Uncle Nine.

　403 “Young friends, what brings you here?” Uncle Nine asked Zhao Xuan and his companion with some curiosity.

You should know that with Zhao Xuan and his companion's beasts, they should have already left the area within a hundred miles. After all, they had been fighting side by side for half a month, and Uncle Jiu and the others knew that Zhao Xuan and his companions relied on those beasts.

In Uncle Jiu's understanding, Zhao Xuan and his companions were similar to the beast tamers in their world. In ancient times, their world also had the Tuanlong clan.

That's also a type of beast tamer, except that a beast tamer's strength lies in taming beasts, not in themselves.

However, Zhao Xuan and the others were very strong, both in terms of their beast taming abilities and their own physical abilities, especially their physiques, which were truly superhuman.

Shattering rocks with his fists was no problem for him. He had seen Zhao Xuan and his group fight those monsters. Every punch landed hard, and their coordination with the monsters was perfect, as if they were one entity.

This is what amazed Uncle Nine and the others.

Zhao Xuan looked at Uncle Nine and said, "Master Lin, now is not the time to talk about this. If we wait any longer, your two disciples will be nowhere to be found."

"Ah, right, I almost forgot about that. Please come with me, my two young friends." Uncle Nine said somewhat awkwardly, remembering his two apprentices upon hearing this.

After Uncle Jiu finished speaking, he chased after Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai.

Zhao Xuan and Jiang Tianhao exchanged a glance and then followed.

Chapter Sixty-Nine Si Teng

"Whoosh! Whoosh!!" The three of them kept moving across the rooftops, their speed not slow at all, keeping up with Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai who were possessed.

"Hmm?" Zhao Xuan suddenly stopped walking, which puzzled Jiang Tianhao. He asked, "Xuanzi, what's wrong?"

Not only was Jiang Tianhao curious, but Uncle Jiu was also curious and stopped in his tracks. He realized that his two troublesome disciples wouldn't be in any trouble for the time being, so Uncle Jiu wasn't in a hurry.

Moreover, Uncle Nine also wanted to teach his two apprentices a profound lesson, to make them think of sex whenever they see a woman.

That's right, Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai were once again swayed by women.

The reason I say "again" is because this isn't the first time Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai have made this mistake.

Uncle Nine used to think that the two of them were still young and would handle them gently every time.

However, after meeting Zhao Xuan and the others, Uncle Jiu realized that he had been too lenient with them before, so he decided to teach them a lesson.
