Musashi of the Elf

Musashi said goodbye to Gingu and was already on the way to the back mountain.

The scenery in the countryside is as vibrant as it was two years ago when Haruko and I first set foot there.

Although it had been a long time since he had picked wild vegetables, Musashi still found a lot of edible wild vegetables.

Most of the wild vegetables withered under the October autumn wind, but there were still some that were in season, but Haruko wasn't here, so I didn't mention them.

Looking down at the paper with the names of the medicinal materials in his hand, he recalled what Yin Gu had taught him and the experience of collecting them in the mountains, and determined their growth habits and possible locations one by one.

Although the herbs that need to be collected are not precious, it is not easy to obtain them one by one in the natural medicine garden in the back mountain.So before setting off, Musashi was already prepared to survive in the wilderness for several days in the back mountains.

But looking at the mountains not far away, one of the experiences left an indelible mark on Musashi's heart.

Last year, I went up the mountain with my master Yin Gu to pick precious medicinal materials that had been preserved for a long time.Because the medicinal material was not yet mature when it was discovered before, Yin Gu kept it where it was, and this day was the day when Yin Gu expected the medicinal material to be mature.

Gingu and Musashi arrived early in the morning. Taking advantage of the hazy morning light, the master and apprentice were already at the foot of the mountain preparing to climb the mountain.

Walking on the forest path, Musashi had already lost his initial excitement.It was replaced by a drowsy sleepiness, and because it was still early and everything was still, the sense of laziness intensified and eroded Musashi's already somewhat chaotic consciousness.

The crisis also came at this moment. Although Musashi had an Arbor snake hanging on her shoulder, which was intended to be the last line of defense for her, and was accompanied by a walking grass that was always paying attention to the surrounding movements, it didn't help.

The dark and wide wings spread silently through the dawn light, occupying nearly two-thirds of the body's mouth, and the four canine teeth shone coldly, revealing its bloodthirsty nature.

The black shadow arrived at Musashi's side almost instantly, but by the time Arbor Snake and Walking Grass realized the danger and started to protect themselves, it was already too late.

Musashi, who was confused and confused, was also frightened by this sudden change and froze in place.He watched helplessly as the bloody mouth got closer and closer to him.

The almost foreseeable scene of death appeared in Musashi's mind dripping with blood, but his body remained indifferent in the face of danger, showing no sign of wanting to move.

Musashi could not predict the danger in advance and could not react in time, but Gingu had already discovered the big-mouthed bat hidden in one in advance.

As for why he didn't warn the confused Musashi in advance, it was mainly to give her a warning and a warning.

As for whether it will leave a shadow on Musashi's mind, so that he dare not go out and take risks.Gingu said that if Musashi really lost the ability to venture in the wild because of this, then the medical skills Gingu taught her would also make Musashi worry-free about food and clothing.

That's why we took action now.

"Double needle."

Before he finished speaking, a large sting wasp whose body was covered with strange patterns appeared in front of Musashi. The two huge stings on its forelimbs were held flat, and its body was flashing.

The giant needle bee, which seemed to have never moved, was still gently flapping its wings in front of Musashi.But the big-mouthed bat on the other side didn't even let out a mournful cry, and suddenly disintegrated in mid-air.The spattering warm blood, accompanied by the smell of blood, covered Musashi's surroundings like flowers blooming on the other side.

Weird and terrifying.

Musashi's crisis was over, and the Big Needle Bee turned around and nodded towards Gingu. He glanced at the red-haired girl who was close at hand, and her figure blurred for a while, disappearing without a trace.

"Ah uh" Musashi came back to his senses and was about to scream in fear, but because his mouth was covered by Gingu's hand, he could only make a slight whine.

His eyes were filled with tears of fear and a sense of exhaustion from the aftermath of the disaster.

After a while, Musashi stopped the urge to shout. He opened his warm big hand with his weak little hand, moved his mouth and said, "Thank you, Master."

"Now that you're awake, do you still want to sleep?" Yingu asked with a wicked smile.

"I don't want to sleep anymore. Master, you have discovered this Big Mouth Bat a long time ago. Why didn't you take action to solve it until just now? And is that Big Stitch Bee your Pokémon? It looks different from the ordinary Big Mouth Bee. But it’s so beautiful.” Musashi slumped down, half-crouched and hugged the grown-up walking grass, and weakly asked a series of questions, wondering if this would make her feel better.

"Abo Snake, please relax, I can't breathe."

"Bah," Abai Snake called out and quickly relaxed his body.

"Why, I think you should be able to figure it out." Gingu said angrily, tapping Musashi's little brain.

"Hey, I know now." Musashi blushed as he realized what the reason was.

"This Great Sting Bee is indeed my Pokémon. As for why the Great Sting Bee is different from other members of its species, that is one of the manifestations of the peculiar effects caused by the poison." Yingu explained.

Although Gingu was fine on the surface, he felt relieved when he saw that Musashi was just a little frightened and could still talk and laugh after he calmed down.

"Oh" Musashi nodded enviously.

"But, master, were you worried about me just now?" Musashi seemed to have discovered something in Gingu's unchanging expression, and asked playfully.

"It's good that you know. Remember this lesson. You will definitely go out on adventures alone in the future. If you continue to be so lazy, no one will save you." Gingu warned unnaturally after Musashi poked his mind.

"Yes"

Feeling that his body's weakness had lessened, Musashi stood up, touched the walking grass and Arbor Snake who were still feeling guilty, looked at Gingu and said, "I'm much better now."

"Then let's keep going." Gingu nodded and continued moving forward with Musashi.

Musashi's memories end here.

Although it has been a long time since this incident, Musashi is not really no longer afraid. On the contrary, it has become much stronger because he is not by Gingu's company.As soon as there was any disturbance, Musashi couldn't help but turn his head and look around, feeling uneasy all over his body.

In front of Gingu, he agreed very readily, but Musashi, who was near the foot of the mountain, was still a little intimidated by the fear of unpredictable dangers.

But when I think about it, I came here for my Pokémon, so that I won't be timid in the future, and also so that my master can admit that I have the ability to inherit his hard work.

Musashi resolutely stepped into this mountain that scared her. At this moment, all the uneasiness was replaced by her own belief, and strong self-confidence emerged spontaneously. It would be more appropriate if you ignore what Musashi said next. .

"Abo Snake, walk on the grass, I leave my safety to you."

A pitiful voice came out of Musashi's mouth.

The confidence he had shown before suddenly collapsed, leaving nothing behind.

"Ba hiss"

"walk"

Abo Snake and Lulu Cao nodded one after another. As for Musashi's rich inner drama, they said they didn't see it, they really didn't see it.

But the powerlessness of the past will definitely not happen again in the future.

"Then let's go. The first destination is the rock wall of the valley closest to us. There is Selaginella cypress growing on it, commonly known as the Nine-Death Resurrection Plant. It is a life-saving medicinal material that can help you withstand highly toxic liquids, so it must be taken. "

Musashi put away the paper recording the name and approximate location of the medicinal materials, shrugged and adjusted the position of his backpack, his expression full of enthusiasm.

"Ba hiss"

"walk"

The mobilization meeting was over, and Musashi was already in the dense forest of the mountain. The Abai snake was swimming in front of Musashi, analyzing the smell information conveyed by the snake letter in his mind, and observing the surrounding heat reaction with infrared vision.

Compared to two years ago, the Arbor Snake was already quite proficient in using its abilities of odor analysis and infrared vision.

In a blink of an eye, the Arbor Snake can easily tell whether there are any abnormalities within a 20-meter range. Infrared vision can also easily identify whether there are any traces of the existence or past existence of other creatures within 10 meters.

The walking grass followed Musashi, spreading paralyzing powder along the way, acting as his extra senses within a certain distance.If a creature is accidentally contaminated with a small amount of powder and appears within the range of the walking grass, the walking grass will definitely be able to predict it in advance.

Speaking of which, Walking Grass has mastered three types of powder attacks, but the one he masters best is the paralysis powder.

With so many guarantees, Musashi and the others will definitely not be the unlucky ones. Musashi is very sure about this. It is only ten points, not even one point less.

Relying on paralysis powder alone is not enough. Walking Grass will also use the vague senses of surrounding vegetation from time to time to determine whether there are abnormalities within 10 meters that the Arbor Snake cannot detect.

These methods are all summed up by the walking grass and the Arbor snake who have gone on adventures to hunt together again and again. Of course, their own superficial experiences alone are bound to be full of mistakes.

But they couldn't help but consult the enthusiastic Bulbasaur and the cold Needle Bee again and again. Even if they used it more often, they could be considered to have achieved some success. I think it should be enough to cope with the current situation.

On a big tree not far from Musashi, stood a giant needle bee with strange patterns.

He saw everything in his eyes, nodded approvingly, and estimated that Musashi's first stop on his trip should be the cliff of the valley.

However, there was a deep pool at the bottom of the cliff, and there was a Gyarados living in the deep pool. The giant needle wasp considered whether to say hello and chat first.

Musashi won't encounter any danger on the road ahead, so he might as well go there and go back early.

"Buzz buzz...hiss" "My little brother is doing well these days~"

The giant needle bee stopped above the deep pool, vibrating its wings, and sent the sound waves directly to the ears of the giant blue shadow at the bottom of the deep pool.

"Hoar" Ma Dan, who is disturbing the labor and management's sleep?

Bridge's sack, wait, wait, it's such a familiar voice, such a familiar sound wave transmission technique, isn't it? Why is this God of Death here?Pretend not to hear.Well, just pretend you didn’t hear it.

But

"Hiss~" Little brother, are you here?

"Ho~" is not there

"Hiss~" Little brother, you are a bug, oh, slip of the tongue, you have to be honest when you are a dragon, are you right? Also, if you don't come out, you won't be able to bask in the sun tomorrow.

Hearing this, the originally dark and comfortable environment at the bottom of the pool felt extremely cold at the moment. Gyarados immediately jumped out of the water and shouted respectfully: "Hoo~~" Why are you here? No wonder there were a few green onions on the pool in the morning. Duck, it turns out that this is a sign that my brother is coming. I'm going to catch some game and treat you well, brother.

"Hiss~" Don't bother. After a while, my master's apprentice, a little human girl with red hair, will come to you to pick some herbs. Just don't disturb them, and they won't disturb your rest. If they make a mistake, you know.

Okay, I'm leaving.See you.

"Ho" I wrote it down, and I'll come and play with it often.

After speaking, Gyarados waved his tail, his attitude was very friendly.Seeing that the giant needle bee disappeared, he immediately spat, muttering disdainfully in his heart: Ha, Brother Long is in a good mood today and I won’t argue with you, a little bug.sleep.

"Hiss~" Is it true?

"Ho" Brother, please walk slowly. I've been sleepy these days. I probably can't sleep, so I can only entertain you. See you later.

After saying that, he disappeared into the pool.
