What is a Pokémon Trainer?

The old man was very happy.

When Zhou Yuan was still lamenting the difficulty of becoming a trainer, he heard the door of the entrance outside being opened, followed by a hearty voice: "Son, your father is back, come out and see what good things I brought you."

Hearing this, Zhou Yuan stood up and walked out of his room, and saw a tall and heroic man standing at the entrance. That was Zhou Yuan's father, Zhou Tianqi.

Zhou Tianqi's forehead was still slightly sweaty. An Huilan, who came out of the kitchen, wiped the sweat off for him with a towel and asked, "Have you bought everything? Look at how sweaty you are."

Zhou Tianqi smiled and said, "Everything has been bought and sent to the store. Da Huang is guarding the door of the store." He waved to Zhou Yuan.

But Zhou Yuan's attention was not on the thermos in his father's hand at this time.

Zhou's father saw that his son was a little distracted, and his little thought of pretending in front of his son was not satisfied, so he asked, "What are you thinking about, son?"

What was Zhou Yuan thinking at this time? He was thinking about who Da Huang was.

Zhou Yuan was distracted because he was searching for information about Da Huang in his memory. Just when Zhou's father called him, Zhou Yuan remembered it.

Da Huang is a nine-tailed dog raised by his family. It is Zhou's father's original spirit. It has been with Zhou's father for more than 20 years. Now he is responsible for watching the hot pot restaurant. Occasionally, he will let it light the fire when frying hot pot base. Zhou's mother's initial spirit is an elegant cat, which usually lies on the cash register in the store as a lucky cat. Zhou's mother also has a doll that works as a waiter in the store.

After thinking about it, Zhou Yuan shifted his sight to the thermos in Zhou's father's hand.

"Dad, what is this? Is this the good thing you are talking about?"

Seeing that his son finally asked a question, Zhou's father's mouth curled up.

"This is milk from a big milk can. When I went to buy ingredients from your uncle Liu today, the big milk can on his ranch was producing milk. I wanted to buy a bucket, but your uncle Liu said he would not charge anything. This thing has high nutritional value. Drink it."

Zhou Yuan took the thermos bucket, turned around and went to the kitchen to get three cups. After pouring three cups, he first brought out two cups and handed them to his parents: "Mom and Dad, you drink first. I'll pour myself a cup."

As he said that, he took the last cup and drank it all. He smacked his lips. The fresh milk had a certain sweetness. Although it was sweet, it was not greasy, and it also had a very mellow fragrance.

"It tastes good."

Mother Zhou smiled as she watched her son finish the milk and said, "It tastes good. Your father and I are both at this age. We don't need to supplement any nutrition. You can drink the rest yourself."

Dad Zhou also raised his hand to drink the milk, and then wiped the white milk stains around his mouth with his hand. Turned to ask Zhou Yuan.

"Son, have you decided what your initial elf will be?"

"Not yet. I can't decide how to choose for the moment."

"Haha, let me tell you, your dad is actually very capable. I said an elf. If you think it's okay, I'll help you get it." Dad Zhou sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, and the corners of his mouth were more wavy than before.

Zhou's mother's hand reached to Zhou's waist, and just a slight twist made Zhou's father beg for mercy.

"Don't pinch my wife, let go of my hand, wife." Zhou's father hurriedly sat up and reached out to hold Zhou's mother's hand.

Zhou's mother twisted it again before letting go, "You are sitting in an unruly manner. In front of your son, can you be more mature?"

Standing aside, Zhou Yuan looked at the interaction between the couple in front of him and felt overwhelmed, just like the coyote dog on the side of the road, who was kicked while walking.

"Wife, it's not that I'm immature, it's just that our son is so lucky. This Pokémon is much better than those common ones in the breeding house." Even though Zhou's father was scolded, he still couldn't help showing a little pride when he mentioned this matter.

Hearing Zhou's father say this, Zhou Yuan also became interested and started to make fun of him.

"Oh? Dad, what Pokémon are you talking about? Tell me about it and let me open my eyes?"

Zhou's father cleared his throat and said in a rare serious tone.

"Does Growlithe know?"

Zhou Yuan was stunned after hearing this. To be honest, he did consider using Growlithe as the initial Pokémon.

But although Growlithe is not completely controlled by the police, there are a certain number of them outside, but it is not as common as most Pokémon. Even if it is not as precious as the three major Pokémons, it is not far behind. Although he was a little surprised, Zhou Yuan still asked.

"Ah? What?

What is a Growlithe?"

Dad Zhou felt a little strange when he heard his son's question.

"No way, you don't even know what a Growlithe is? That shouldn't be the case."

"So what kind of elf is a Growlithe?" Zhou Yuan still pretended to be stupid.

Seeing that his son really didn't know what a Growlithe was, Dad Zhou didn't know how to explain it for a moment, and kept talking:

"Growlithe is... that kind of very special elf, it is orange-red all over, with black stripes on the back and limbs, and creamy yellow fur on the top of the head, neck and tail. It is often used as a police dog. "

As the saying goes, no one knows a son better than his mother. Mother Zhou had already seen that her son was joking with his father. Before Dad Zhou could say anything more, Mother Zhou said, "Okay, stop talking, Old Zhou, look at your son, he can't hold back his laughter, he's teasing you. "

When Zhou's father saw that Zhou Yuan was indeed like this, he was furious: "Little bastard, your dad is kind enough to help you choose the initial elves, but you are still teasing me. Today, I will let you know what the seven wolves are." He said as he was about to pull the belt.

When Zhou Yuan saw that something was wrong, he hurried to Zhou's father's back and shoulders.

"Oh, don't be angry, don't be angry, we are friends, these are just small issues, go on, what's wrong with Caterpillar? Is there a channel? "

Seeing his son's attitude, Zhou's father could no longer maintain his feigned anger and scolded him with a smile: "You little bastard, you are really..." Zhou's father was also stuck at this point, and couldn't think of a particularly suitable word to describe his son for a while.

Zhou's mother, who was standing next to him, couldn't help laughing when she saw the appearance of the two father and son.

After this interruption, Zhou's father could no longer maintain his serious feeling, and lazily leaned on the sofa to enjoy his son's hospitality. After organizing his words, he said:

"You know your uncle Liu, he is my childhood friend and grew up with me. After growing up, he was admitted to the police academy and joined the system. About six years ago, he was ambushed when he was on the field to catch an elf hunter. Almost all the elves died, and only a wind speed dog survived. After that incident, he felt that it was his responsibility that caused the death of the elf, and he no longer had that kind of spirit, so he retired. "

"After retiring, he couldn't stay idle. I was worried about him, so I took a bottle of wine to find him. "Speaking of this, Dad Zhou fell into memories...

Six years ago.

Zhou Tianqi brought a bottle of Erguotou to Liu Yongming's house, put the wine down without saying anything, turned into the kitchen, made a few dishes, put them on the table, poured the wine, and asked Liu Yongming to eat.

The two did not talk much, just drank and ate.

After three rounds of wine, Liu Yongming finally couldn't hold it back, and tears dripped into the wine.

"Brother, I really regret it. If I hadn't been so greedy for merit and progress at that time, and honestly waited for support to arrive, wouldn't it be different? They all died because of me." Liu Yongming couldn't hold it back as he spoke, and the 1.9-meter-tall big man fell on the table and cried bitterly.

Seeing this, Zhou Tianqi didn't know what to do, so he could only comfort him: "Yongming, don't be too sad, the past is over, since you think they died for you, then you should live well, otherwise you will let them down. Besides, even if it is for the sake of following your Dahong, you should live better. It doesn't matter if you are hungry or not, but you can't let Dahong go hungry with you. "

While talking here, Dahong, that is, Liu Yongming's wind speed dog, heard the trainer's cry, dragged his injured body to his trainer, and licked him with his tongue.

When Liu Yongming was licked by his own Pokémon, he stopped crying on the table, turned around and hugged his big dog and started howling. It can be said that those who heard it were sad and those who saw it cried.

After crying for a long time, Liu Yongming stopped crying and turned to Zhou Tianqi and said, "Brother Zhou, you are right. I have to live well, whether it is for Dahong or Dahei and Daqing, I have to live well. I have cried enough, and the most urgent thing is that I have to find a livelihood first, and I can't live off the mountain."

Zhou Tianqi thought for a while and made a suggestion, "How about this, my family opened a hot pot restaurant, and we always change suppliers because of the problem of ingredients. "

"You are an honest person. Why don't you use your retirement money and pension to open a ranch? In this way, I can find a suitable and stable supplier, and introduce other stores to you to help you attract customers. You can also have a stable income, and even Dahong can help you herd and guard the door. What do you think?"

Liu Yongming agreed without thinking: "I believe in your vision, brother. If you say it is appropriate, I will do it."

…………

The memories ended, and Zhou Yuan also listened to what Zhou's father said about the past. He wanted to say something, but for a moment he couldn't

I don't know how to start, I just feel a little emotional.

Seeing that the atmosphere is a bit heavy, Zhou's mother next to her took the initiative to change the subject.

"Then the Caterpie you are talking about, is it Yongming's?"

When it comes to this topic, Zhou's father regained his spirits.

"Wife, you don't know, didn't I take Dahuang to Yongming's house last time, and Dahuang and Dahong fell in love. I don't know why they didn't like each other in the early years. Some time ago, Yongming told me that his Dahong was pregnant. We thought about it and it seems that the culprit can only be Dahuang. Hahahaha, worthy of my elf, it didn't take long for Dahong to be born, worthy of Dahuang."

Hearing Zhou's father's words, Zhou's mother blushed and rolled her eyes at him.

Dad Zhou pretended not to see it and continued to talk to himself:

"Yongming knows that our son needs a starting elf this year, so he said that he would give our son one after Dahong lays an egg. I didn't tell you before because I wanted to give you a surprise."

"I went to buy ingredients today. Yongming told me that Dahong gave birth a few days ago and laid two eggs. Tomorrow we will take our son to his uncle Liu's ranch."

After speaking to his wife, Dad Zhou turned to Zhou Yuan and said:

"Son, what do you think? Do you want Caterpie to be your starting elf? Although I think it's good, I can't impose my ideas on you. The decision is always in your hands."

Before Zhou Yuan could speak, Dad Zhou stood up, patted his clothes, and walked to the entrance.

"Okay, think about it. Your mother and I are going to the store. If you have any ideas, just tell us."

After speaking, Dad Zhou ignored his son who was a little stunned here, turned around and took his wife's hand and went out leisurely.

"You let me finish what I said... I didn't say I didn't want to..."
