Pokémon: I, Xiaozhi, return to the beginning

Maybe it was because he went to bed earlier yesterday, and Xiaoguang woke up earlier today as well.

After a brief breakfast, Xiaozhi and Xiaoguang, led by Xiaogang, headed towards the destination he had planned last night, where Xiaoguang could relax.

"Well—it's so comfortable! It's a fine day!"

It was cold and quiet in the woods, it was still early, and I didn't meet other pedestrians here.

After walking for a while, we came to a trail, the soles of our feet were neatly paved stone slabs, and the lush green grass in summer stubbornly swayed in the cracks between the stone slabs, and the morning sun that was already hanging in the air was so peaceful. The ground dyed the stone path yellow, and the air was filled with the unique aroma of the morning.

The stone path extends all the way to the foot of the mountain.

Obviously walking among the mountains and forests, but looking at the endless stone roads always gives a few people a sense of sight of walking on the vast wilderness, that kind of line of sight.

"Where are we going next? Is there a town where we're going today?"

Xiaoguang was bouncing at the front full of energy, until Xiaozhi reminded her to watch the road under her feet carefully, Xiaoguang put away her exuberant interest, and began to pay attention to today's itinerary.

"There is no town at today's destination, but it takes about two hours to walk the mountain road to a Pokémon Center at the foot of the mountain. We will spend the night there tonight."

"Hey~ two hours of mountain road?"

Xiaoguang's mood fell to the bottom after hearing that their destination was not a town but a Pokémon center, and they had to walk a two-hour mountain road.

Xiaogang and Xiaozhi did not tell Xiaoguang what will happen near the Pokmon Center tonight at this time. After all, it is meaningless to say such things as surprises. Anyway, after arriving at the Pokmon Center, Xiaoguang will naturally come from Miss Joy knew it.

......

Finally, after walking the mountain road for two hours, Xiaozhi and others arrived near the Pokémon Center at the foot of the mountain.

And here—

"Take a look and take a look! Don't miss the freshly baked taiyaki!!"

"Animal masks! Everything you want! Take your pick!"

“Rental yukata! Cheap price! Lots of styles!!”

"Candy apples! Do you need anything?!"

……

"This, what is this..."

Just arrived at the foot of the mountain, Xiao Guang was stunned by the bustling scene in front of him.

Although they are only about 100 meters apart, they seem to be two completely different worlds.

"Is it so lively..."

"It's amazing."

Not only was Xiaoguang, who had nothing here, surprised, even Xiaozhi and Xiaogang, who had known for a long time that there would be a large-scale natural wonder here tonight, were a little confused by the scene in front of them.

This place is remote, normally no one would come here, but what is this scene that is comparable to a temple fair in a big city......

Although the two of them didn't know what was going on here, their doubts didn't last long, and they were quickly answered.

"Poison Butterfly's..."

"Romantic pollen festival?"

When they came to the Pokémon Center, after Ms. Joey explained the general situation to Xiaozhi and others, they looked at each other, still looking a little curious.

"Well, it's actually a sudden idea from above. Magazines and newspapers have been promoting this brand new festival in the past two days, and various media have also responded that as long as they watch the romantic pollen festival of poisonous butterflies here, couples can enjoy it. Together forever."

"That's why the outside is full of boys and girls who accompany each other..."

Xiao Gang couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he heard this, but he quickly reacted, took a step forward and took Miss Joy's hand, and said affectionately:

"In that case, may I ask Miss Joy if she would like to be with Xiaosheng—poof!"

Before the words fell, the bad frog still performed its own task.

And Xiaoguang was reading the brochure given to her by Ms. Joy, which introduced in detail the custom of the poisonous pink butterflies gathering here to find each other's mates and finally leaving together.

In addition to the introduction to the background, there are many love stories in it, which basically happened here, but Xiaoguang has no interest in these false stories after learning the truth from Ms. Joy .

but--

"Will couples stay together forever?"

Xiaoguang muttered, and then took a peek at Xiaozhi, subconsciously a strange but reasonable question emerged in his heart.

So what if it's not a couple?

Obviously knowing that so many stories between couples in the manual are false, but Xiaoguang somehow feels that what Miss Joy said...or what she conveyed is true.

"Well... Anyway, the time is just right, so let's put down everything at hand today and enjoy the festival."

Things went a little differently from what was expected at the beginning, but Xiaozhi still didn't forget what he discussed with Xiaogang last night.

Their purpose today is to let Xiaoguang relax. If there is no festival, their original plan is to have a picnic by the lake, but since the festival is being held here, it can only be said that everything is so coincidental.

"Well...but..."

Xiaoguang still felt a little anxious after missing a chance for a grand contest.

Perhaps it was to make up for the missed opportunity last time, and the Mikri Cup is indeed the best opportunity to prove himself, so Xiaoguang trained so hard.

but......

Festival?

Looking out from the window of the Pokémon Center, although it is only the first year of the festival, with the support of the government and the vigorous publicity of the media, all kinds of stalls have covered the foot of the mountain, just a cursory glance There are also nearly a hundred.

"Okay~"

The corner of Xiaoguang's mouth turned up, and he said in a relaxed tone:

"It just so happens that I have worked hard for so long recently, so let's treat it as a reward! Anyway, it is not easy to find a training place around now, so why not just relax!"

Xiao Guang quickly accepted Xiao Zhi's proposal, and Xiao Gang, who did not know when he had recovered, also walked to Xiao Zhi's side. The two looked at each other and nodded in unison, as if celebrating the action. It's smooth.

"Then I wish you all a good time and enjoy the first year's festival. By the way, if you want to watch the scene where the poisonous butterflies meet at the nearest place at night, you'd better set up a tent near the lake first. The flow of people at night should be much more than it is now.”

Miss Joy kindly reminded.
