I've seen many people raising wives, but this is the first time I've seen someone raising

The strange-horned deer, which had been staying obediently beside Zhu Bei, suddenly became a little excited after seeing Xia Mu waving.

Then, regardless of Zhu Bei's order, the strange-horned deer walked up to Xia Mu with a friendly look on its face, and even nudged the latter's palm with its head affectionately.

"The Divine Flute is of little use to me."

After touching the strange-horned deer, Xia Mu said to Zhu Bei.

Zhu Bei, who was a little stunned, came to her senses after hearing the voice.

As far as she could remember, Xia Mu had told her before that he was very popular among Pokémon.

She thought that these words were just for show, and no matter how popular she was, it was impossible for her to be treated like a family member in the Pokémon world.

But now that she had seen it with her own eyes, she realized that her imagination was still too limited.

"Well..."

Zhu Bei puffed out her lips, feeling a little disappointed.

I thought the chance to turn things around had finally come, but I didn't expect to be greeted by a bigger shadow.

Noticing Zhu Bei's resentful look, Xia Mu couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips.

“Although I don’t need the Divine Flute to summon a mount, I am still very interested in the flute.”

"If Zhubei wants, she can also teach me how to play the flute."

In order to prevent Zhu Bei from feeling disappointed, Xia Mu made another suggestion.

Sure enough, after hearing the content, a light flashed in the other party's big blue eyes.

"Okay, don't regret it."

Zhu Bei quickly agreed.

Then she seemed to have thought of something and continued:

"By the way, you don't have a flute yet, right? I'll send it to you after I make it!"

Now that she has the strange-horned deer, she has the capital to travel long distances.

In the future, I can naturally go to play with Xia Mu often.

[After playing with Zhu Bei for a while, you went to find the leader and started today's training. ]

[After that, as promised, Zhubei will occasionally ride her mount from the pure white frozen soil to the red lotus wetland to play with you.]

[Since the journey is quite long and Zhubei is still young, she is usually accompanied by a woman named Guana from the Pearl Tribe.]

[The other person is not too old, and looks about the same age as Wusi, but he has a very gentle personality and is very caring towards you and Zhubei.]

[However...Zhu Bei's frequent visits made Wu Si quite dissatisfied. ]

"Don't let her come next time."

In the courtyard, Wu Si took a sip of the scented tea that Xia Mu made for him and said with a dark face.

Every time that little girl named Zhubei came, she would occupy Xia Mu for a few days.

Xia Mu was almost out of her sight these days.

She was quite dissatisfied with this behavior of usurping the magpie's nest and coming from behind.

Moreover, Xia Mu has to go back to the Pearl Tribe once every half a month.

To round it off, Zhu Bei and Xia Mu have been together longer than she, the one who raised them.

Is this reasonable? !

"I can't control Pearl's behavior either."

After refilling Wu Si's tea cup, Xia Mu said helplessly.

This was not the first time the other party had made such a request, but he had no good solution.

I can't really tell Zhubei not to come to see me anymore.

Hearing this, Wusi snorted softly.

She slowly stretched out her silky hand, used two fingers to pinch Xia Mu's face, and threatened:

"Don't forget who raised you."

"If you don't find a way to resolve this, I'll lock you up and keep you."

Anyway, the Xicui Continent is so big, and she just happens to know a Pokémon that can control the land.

Just dig a hole and hide Xia Mu, and no one will be able to find where he is.

"Yes Yes Yes."

Xia Mu had no choice but to agree to Wu Si's unreasonable behavior.

As we spend more time together, Wusi's feelings for him seem to grow stronger.

From not caring at all in the beginning, to knowing that I have to be responsible for him later.

Until now, the other party has shown emotions similar to dependence in some aspects.

If this continued, Xia Mu even suspected that the other party would change his mind one day and not allow him to go to the Pearl Tribe again.

But now...

The frequency of the pearl shells coming does seem to be a bit high.

Xia Mu took a sip of tea and began to think about this matter seriously.

It’s no wonder that Wusi got angry. Zhubei’s frequency of coming is indeed abnormal.

There are thirty days in a month, and the other party spends nearly two-thirds of his time with him.

Sometimes they just left the day before and came back the next day.

This also made Xia Mu feel confused.

And the weirdest thing is... sometimes the other party would come and not say anything, but would just crawl on top of him and take a nap.

After getting enough sleep, he waved goodbye and left in silence.

If you don’t know, you might think that Zhubei can’t speak.

There are many similar things.

Now after Wu Si’s reminder, Xia Mu also felt a little strange.

Could it be that something unexpected happened in the Pearl Tribe that he was not aware of?

Feeling confused, Xia Mu decided to ask Zhu Bei himself next time she came.

"correct."

Suddenly thinking of something, Wu Si clapped his hands, interrupting Xia Mu's thoughts.

"What's wrong?" Xia Mu asked.

Hearing this, Wusi snorted and laughed.

She did not answer Xia Mu's question, but took out an orange and white spherical object from the basket under her feet.

There is a button-like object made of wood in the middle of the sphere.

Facing Xia Mu's gaze, Wu Si gently hit the former's face with the ball.

"Snapped--"

The sphere opened up, revealing an empty interior.

"it's a pity."

I thought of making a clicking sound.

"You're really not a Pokémon. I wanted to capture you."

After closing the sphere, she threw it to Xia Mu and said.

"This is?"

After catching the ball, Xia Mu asked in confusion.

"The Poké Balls that Team Kong made are said to be able to capture Pokémon."

"But it should only be a semi-finished product, and the success rate is pitifully low."

As he said this, Wusi yawned, turned around and walked into the house.

"I'm going to bed. Please clean up the table."

Chapter 139: Zoroa's Choice

[Since you had doubts last time, you have also tried to ask Zhu Bei if anything happened to the Pearl Tribe.]

【But the answers I got were that everything was normal. 】

"Everything is normal in the Pearl Tribe. What's wrong?"

Tilting her head, Zhu Bei asked in confusion.

"It's nothing. I just saw you coming to my place every day, and I thought you had a fight with the leader."

Xia Mu shook his head and explained.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Bei's expression was somewhat dissatisfied.

She puffed her lips and glared at Xia Mu.

"I don't come here every day. I only come here when I want to play with you, okay?"

Zhubei felt very wronged.

The journey was too far, and she also had to undergo various training.

Therefore, she couldn't squeeze out much free time in a month, so how could she possibly come here every day?

"is it?"

Seeing that Zhu Bei's anger didn't seem to be fake, Xia Mu felt a little confused.

When he thought about how the other person's personality was completely different when he came to see him, he couldn't help but feel a chill on his back.

Could it be that I am being targeted by some evil creature?

[With doubts, you decide to find out the reason the next time you meet the taciturn Pearl.]

[But what puzzles you is that after you had this thought, nothing similar happened for more than a year.]

[In the past year or so, your abilities in all aspects have been greatly improved. ]

[In terms of super powers, you can even compete with wild Chirulian in teleportation. ]

[In addition, because you can accomplish things that are difficult for ordinary humans to do, the Pearl Tribe members who often receive your help are quite welcoming and supportive of you.]

[Some people even want to nominate you as the next leader. ]

[In addition, since the number of times Zhubei comes to see you has decreased sharply, Wusi's mood has also improved day by day. ]

"Yes, the house has been quite a bit quieter lately."

I nodded meaningfully, with a satisfied expression on my face.

Ever since she said that last time, Zhu Bei's frequency of coming to see Xia Mu has dropped significantly.

Sure enough, Xia Mu still listens more to her as the one who raised her.

Hearing this, Xia Mu, who was sitting not far away, showed a helpless expression on his face.

In fact, he did nothing, but Zhubei's visits decreased inexplicably.

And the most important thing is...the only one who disappeared seemed to be the taciturn "Pearl", just as he had guessed at the beginning.
