Elf, I am really a farmer

At this time, in the small world, the giant mantis saw the light stone sent by Wen Qi, and listened to Wen Qi talk about the effects of the light stone.

The giant mantis couldn't wait to carry it with it, and when the light stone was worn on the giant mantis.

The giant mantis clearly felt the changes in its body. Although its weight did not change, it felt much lighter.

It decided to test its speed, so it came to the woods.

Wen Qi was also observing through his thoughts.

The giant mantis equipped with light stone was like a green lightning, shuttling through the dense woods.

Its steps were light and swift, as if it was dancing with the wind. Every time it jumped, it almost didn't see the moment it landed before it rushed forward again.

The leaves fell under its shadow, but it was hard to touch its swift body. Its speed was amazing, like an arrow in the wind, swift and sharp.

Whether chasing prey or avoiding natural enemies, the giant mantis demonstrates its unparalleled speed advantage and becomes a beautiful landscape in the woods.

Wen Qi felt that the speed of the Giant Mantis had increased by about 30%. Maybe the Giant Mantis is still not quite used to it now, but after it gets familiar with it, its speed should increase further.

Wen Qi was still thinking about the plan for the giant mantis when he suddenly heard someone calling him.

Wen Qi looked in the direction of the voice and saw a familiar figure. As he slowly approached, he discovered that it was his old classmate, Li Xiang, with whom he had fought before in the Battle Hall.

Seeing Li Xiang coming, with a Charmander beside him, it was obvious that it was evolved from the previous Charmander.

Wen Qi had never thought that he would meet Li Xiang here. It was really a coincidence.

In fact, when Li Xiang saw Wen Qi just now, he just felt that the back was familiar, but he didn't dare to confirm it.

Because of the mount goat beside Wen Qi, Li Xiang discovered that this mount goat was very powerful and was a backbone even in the family. There were not many people in the family who had elite Pokémon.

At first Li Xiang thought he had made a mistake, but when he saw the familiar figure from behind, he tried to call out, and when he saw Wen Qi turning around, he was sure that this was Wen Qi.

"Wenqi, I didn't expect to see you in the grocery market. What are you planning to buy this time? I come here often and I am very familiar with it."

Li Xiang spoke first.

"Li Xiang, I came here just to stroll around and see if there are any good things to buy, but after strolling for a long time, I didn't find anything good."

Wen Qi was observing Li Xiang's Fire Dinosaur as he spoke.

I didn't expect Li Xiang's Charmander to evolve so quickly. It must have consumed a lot of resources. Although it has just evolved, it is quite difficult to complete the evolution in such a short time.

After hearing Wen Qi's words, Li Xiang thought for a moment and then spoke:

"There really isn't anything great here. Basically, the good items are kept by those who have a keen eye for them, all for the market down below."

As he spoke, he pointed to the ground.

Wen Qi understood the meaning of Li Xiang's gesture.

Good things basically flow into the black market. The black market is vast, with a large population and many wealthy people. No one will trace them when they are sold on the black market, so the wealth can basically be kept secret.

If you always sell good things in the grocery market, you will be easily targeted by people with ulterior motives, which would be bad.

It is different in the black market. Except for familiar people or the managers of the black market, basically no one knows the information of the person selling things. This is much safer.

The black market needs to ensure customer flow, which requires credibility, so rules must be followed on the surface. Otherwise, once the rules are broken, no one will come.

That’s why the black market of this small city was able to develop around it.

"Then what are you doing here today, Li Xiang? There's basically nothing good here anyway."

Li Xiang did not hide anything, because when he saw Wen Qi's look, he knew that he was going to the black market below.

So Li Xiang said directly:

"I had nothing to do this afternoon, so I came here for a walk. There's an auction at the black market downstairs tonight, and there will be some good stuff, so I plan to take a look.

I came here first, just to understand the situation and bring Charmeleon to play with me. Charmeleon was very tired from training every day before.

Judging from your appearance, you are probably here for the black market. Let's meet in the evening. I have an invitation to the auction here. Do you want to go with me?"

Wen Qi listened to what Li Xiang said.

He thought that if Li Xiang traveled with him, he would have someone to look after him. This was his first time here, and he didn't understand some of the rules of the black market. Now that he had someone to guide him, he wouldn't be completely in the dark.

What's more, I can attend the auction with Li Xiang. It would be great if I could get a bargain at the auction.

Wen Qi immediately agreed to Li Xiang's request.

In fact, Li Xiang also wanted to make friends with Wen Qi. Wen Qi's grass turtle had left a deep impression on him before, and he felt that Wen Qi had great potential.

But this time when I saw Wen Qi's goat mount, I realized that Wen Qi not only has potential, but is now quite capable.

Therefore, having a good relationship with Wenqi will also be beneficial to yourself.

Although his family was considered relatively large in Chunhua City and even had some shares in the black market, there were many children in the family. Even though Li Xiang's father was the patriarch of the family, he could not provide Li Xiang with too many resources.

So living in a big family has both advantages and disadvantages. Now that Li Xiang has found a strong friend, it will also help him increase his voice in the family.

At this time, Li Xiang suddenly said to Wen Qi:

"Wenqi, how is your grass turtle?"

The Charmeleon, who was originally bored, heard Li Xiang asking about the Tortoise that had defeated him.

He immediately pricked up his ears and listened attentively.

Wen Qi also answered casually:

"You mean the Grass Turtle? It's on the farm. We didn't bring it here this time, but it has evolved before and is now a Forest Turtle. If you want to see it, you probably won't be able to see it this time."

Li Xiang didn't feel surprised when he heard that the Grass Turtle had evolved. After all, the Grass Turtle was very powerful, so its evolution was reasonable.

It’s a pity that I didn’t bring it this time. I had been planning to bring the Charmeleon to fight against Wen Qi’s Forest Turtle again to avenge my previous defeat.

When the Fire Dinosaur heard that Wen Qi did not bring the Forest Turtle, the fighting spirit that had just been ignited by the Fire Dinosaur suddenly dissipated.

When Wen Qi saw them like this, he knew that Li Xiang and the Fire Dinosaur were planning to take revenge.

So he said:

"Li Xiang, it looks like you want to compete with my forest turtle again. If you have time later, you can come to my farm. I'll give you the address then."

Although Li Xiang was not very interested in Wenqi's farm, he was still quite interested in Wenqi.

Going to Wenqi's farm can also help to communicate and enhance relations. As for whether Li Xiang will have time to go there later, it depends on the situation. If he is free, he will go there.
