[Pokemon] Late Autumn

It is said to be a waterfall, but a more reasonable term should be "Meteor Cave".

Although there is a hot volcano not far away, there are cool breezes blowing out of the cave, making people still feel extremely cool.

"Is there really a waterfall in it?"

"Wouldn't it be nice to just walk inside and take a look."

As Yasha walked inside, she looked around curiously and answered Midiu's questions absentmindedly.

The torches on the wall illuminate the cave like daylight. If you listen carefully, you can seem to hear the sound of waterfalls rushing down in the distance.

The cave here is very wide and deep, and the path is winding and has many forks. Fortunately, Heiluga's ears are very sensitive. He followed the sound of the water all the way in and didn't get lost. He walked to the cave smoothly. of depth.

The air continues to become humid. Not only that, but there are also many murals recording the life of ancient elves on the walls on both sides of the path.

In late autumn, I was unconsciously attracted by these murals and observed them carefully. Telekinesis clay dolls, fossil pterosaurs, sickle helmets, cradle lilies, etc... These distinctive elf murals are so lifelike, and the peaceful atmosphere seems to overflow from the stone walls, silently telling the past history.

On the screen, in addition to the elves on the ground, Rayquaza's huge figure hovered in the sky at the top.

"...They believe that Rayquaza protects all living things on the ground and is the supreme patron saint."

Asha gently touched the strokes on the wall and explained softly.

Continuing to move forward, the scenes displayed in the murals on the walls also changed a lot.

The joy on earth is no longer as countless meteorites fall from the sky, destroying everything on the ground without restraint, causing countless precious species to become endangered or even extinct.

Looking around, all life is in ruins.

The shield dragon's face, as hard as a stone shield, has long been free of countless wounds, and its tough body can no longer protect the child behind it; the tentacles of the cradle lily hang low, slowly and feebly falling off from the body; the fossil pterosaur no longer Soaring freely, fell straight from the sky...

This is a devastating disaster.

But fortunately, at the most critical moment, Rayquaza responded to people's wishes and brought everyone's strength together to prevent further disasters.

The final scene is also fixed here.

"It's true..." Yasha murmured in shock, "I didn't expect it to be here..."

Late Qiu stared blankly at the mural in front of him, silent.

However, while she was shocked by this, she also felt doubtful from the bottom of her heart - could such a lot of precious information be exposed like this in the cave of Meteor Falls? For outsiders to visit at will?

Late autumn finally couldn't hold it back and took a few photos of the wall.

At this time, Heiluga suddenly took a step forward and sniffed on the nearby wall and ground.

Then, it frowned, looked at Late Qiu, and roared softly.

"Someone is coming." Shen Qiu understood and lowered her voice.

Asha raised her eyebrows, nodded slightly without saying a word, and became more vigilant.

Hearing the sound of walking in the distance, Yasha stood up and watched the figures in the distance getting closer and closer to them.

To their surprise, a young female trainer wearing a witch costume walked over from the depths of the cave. She is accompanied by a Sun Eevee, both of whom look elegant.

She looked at Shen Qiu and Yasha, and bowed lightly: "You two must be here to visit Meteor Falls, right? I'm so sorry, I just overheard your conversation in front... It seems that you are lost. , so I made my own decision and planned to take you there."

Her face is still a little immature, and her voice is very soft. She looks about the same age as late autumn.

"Thank you so much!" Yasha breathed a sigh of relief.

The sudden appearance of the other party in this dark cave was really startling, but she did seem to be kind-hearted to help, and she was such a girl... so there was no need to be too vigilant.

"Thank you for showing us the way."

Although Shenqiu felt that the miko's appearance was a bit sudden, she was very grateful for her enthusiastic move.

"You're welcome." The miko said with a decent smile on her face, "My name is Qianxiang, and the kid next to me is Taiyang Eevee. We have always lived near here, and I am glad to meet you."

"Hello, my name is Shen Qiu." "I'm Asha. Ah, both of us are visiting trainers."

"Sure enough, I think you are very powerful." Qianxiang covered her mouth and chuckled, "This is also the first time I have seen such a handsome Kuruga."

Heiluga's expression was indifferent. After hearing this, he raised his head and looked at Qianxiang, then closed his eyes and smelled something on the other person's body.

This smell, I always felt... Hei Lujia was a little confused by the familiar scent of the other party, but because it was the first time they met, he just frowned slightly and said nothing.

Shen Qiu didn't know what Hei Lujia was doing, but this move was undoubtedly a bit embarrassing at this time.

She sighed softly and tapped Heiluga lightly on the head: "I want to thank you for your compliment on Heiluga's behalf. I was rude just now, so please don't mind it too much."

"It doesn't matter at all," Qianxiang waved her hand, as if remembering something, "Oh, I see, are you smelling this?"

She took out an imperial guard from her pocket.

"This royal guard was passed down to me by my grandma, saying it can bless me with peace." Qianxiang said with a smile.

Asha curiously leaned over and smelled it, and sure enough, there was a fresh fragrance.

"Safety……"

Shen Qiu repeated in a low voice, but suddenly froze on the spot.

She stared at the guard in Qianxiang's hands and lowered her head. Familiar but unfamiliar memories suddenly flashed through her mind.

It seems that in the lost memory of the past, someone seemed to have said similar words of blessing...

But...I can't remember it at all...

However, I can clearly feel the gentle breath and fragrant smell...

It seems that when I was very young, someone whispered familiar words in my ear... soft and hot water droplets slowly slid down from the other person's cheek and dripped on my neck...

Shen Qiu raised her hand unconsciously, as if it had been burned, and suddenly came back to her senses.

"Late autumn! Late autumn!"

Hearing Asha calling her, Shenqiu blinked and looked blankly at Asha who called her with a frown.

"What's wrong with you?" Yasha frowned worriedly, "You just suddenly fell into a daze. I called you several times but there was no response."

"I'm fine. Sorry, I was thinking about something just now...don't worry." Shen Qiu rubbed her brows, but felt a sudden feeling of powerlessness welling up in her heart.

She has no clue about her past now, and the "flashback" she just had for a moment...

It’s more like an “insert plot” where “key props” are triggered.

Miqiu's eyes turned slightly and glanced at the guardian in Qianxiang's hand.

"Is it this guardian?" Qianxiang was also a little worried. She looked at the guardian in her hand, "Did it remind you of something... I'm sorry."

Qianxiang lowered her voice and apologized.

"It's okay...please don't take it to heart."

In comparison, Late Autumn is more concerned about this sense of strangeness.

If she hadn't known that these fragmentary fragments belonged to her own "past", she would have even wondered whether these emotions and memories came from a stranger.

It was so strange... She watched this memory of hers from the perspective of a "spectator".

Asha was still not at ease and kept talking to Shen Qiu for a long time. After Shen Qiu reluctantly and hilariously interrupted her excessive worries, Asha stopped talking and rubbed Shen Qiu's head hard.

"It really makes me worried."

Seeing Late Qiu return to her usual appearance, Yasha breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the three of them quickly became familiar with each other, chatting wordlessly, and soon walked out of the twists and turns of the cave.

"It's just ahead."

Under Qianxiang's guidance, they soon saw the bright light at the entrance of the cave in front, and at the same time, the sound of the waterfall became more and more obvious.

The late autumn light slightly blocked the dazzling light, and when I walked out of the winding road, I was shocked to the spot by the sight in front of me.

What comes into view is the huge waterfall in the distance. Although it is suspended in the cave, this world is really wide and spectacular.

The surrounding stone walls are inlaid with countless dazzling ores and luminous pearls, and the crystal clear luster makes people almost forget to breathe; green vines twine around the stone walls and trees, making the entire cave full of life; the water of the waterfall in the distance flows from hundreds of miles away. The water flowed down from the meter-high cliff hole and hit the bottomless pool, stirring up pieces of silver-white snowflakes.

There are many elves playing nearby. The water elves are comfortable and contented by the waterfall. The rock and ground elves are a little further away, but they are also lying on the ground leisurely and taking a nap.

In late autumn, I even saw a few mini dragons playing in the water pool. Not far away, there was a Hack Dragon taking good care of many elves.

"—This is Meteor Falls, and it's also a paradise for elves." Qianxiang introduced with a smile.

Late Qiu and Yasha stood there, staring blankly at this spectacular and beautiful scene.

After a long time, Shen Qiu spoke with difficulty: "It's so beautiful here... but like this... if bad people come..."

She could hardly ask about this terrible idea, but seeing Qianxiang bring her and Asha here without any scruples, if it were someone with ulterior motives, then the "Peach Blossom Land" here would probably...

"Don't worry." Qianxiang smiled and shook her head. "The caves here are complicated and complicated. You won't be able to find it without someone to guide you. Besides, the people and elves living here are not just ordinary people. They have enough ability." Protect your home.”

"Sorry, please forgive me for asking," Yasha said thoughtfully, "Are you a 'people of the meteor'?"

However, Miqiu was startled. She quickly turned her head to observe Qianxiang's expression, but found that the other party was not offended, and even looked a little surprised.

"Oh? Not many people know this word."

Yasha breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the other party's lack of anger, and smiled sheepishly: "When you mentioned 'generations have lived here', I actually had this guess."

"...I am, or rather, everyone who lives here is." Qianxiang sighed, and the smile on her face became a little helpless, "But please don't tell anyone. The less interference here is from the outside world, the better. good."

"Of course, don't worry about this." Shen Qiu quickly assured, and Yasha nodded repeatedly.

Finally ending this meaningful topic, Shen Qiu breathed a sigh of relief and turned around to continue admiring the scenery in front of her. However, she suddenly discovered that there was a small black shadow on the cliff above the waterfall in the distance!

"That's...!" Shen Qiu's eyes widened.

Qianxiang followed Miqiu's gaze, but her pupils suddenly shrank.

"Oops!" She suddenly became anxious and explained quickly, "That child is a baby dragon. Because he dreams of flying in the sky, in order to practice flying... he will jump directly from the cliff."

"Grandma was always there before, but what happened today..." Qianxiang walked around anxiously, and suddenly looked up at Miqiu Yasha and the two of them, "I'm so sorry, if you have elves that can fly, can you..." "

"Don't worry, just look at me!"

Asha knew that the situation was urgent, so she interrupted Qianxiang's words and immediately threw the elf ball: "Arrow Eagle! Go and save the baby dragon on the edge of the cliff!"

The Fierce Arrow Eagle chirped high and then rushed forward like an arrow leaving its string. Relying on its impressive speed, it narrowly caught the baby dragon that was falling rapidly from the edge of the cliff.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The Fiery Arrow Eagle flew back from a distance carrying the baby dragon, but the baby dragon on its back looked downcast. It enviously looked at the Fiery Arrow Eagle's feathers that were like burning flames, but suddenly found that there was another one in front of it. A familiar face full of anger.

"Baby dragon! Do you know how dangerous it was to act like that just now! I have already said that you will grow wings when you grow up, but you are still running around like the same old way. Do you know how worried I am..."

Qianxiang's delicate face looked angry and worried.

The baby dragon just turned his head to the side, silently avoiding Qianxiang's sight.

"This kid is really..."

Qianxiang held her forehead and was silent for a while, then turned around and bowed to Asha, "Anyway, thank you very much for your help!"

Yasha waved her hands repeatedly: "Don't be so polite. We also want to thank you for showing us such a beautiful sight."

Qianxiang was stunned for a moment, and finally showed a real smile: "...I understand. Then please let me be your tour guide and show you around this place."
