Although there is a cable car you can ride on, the speed of the cable car is not very fast. The top speed is about six meters per second. Under normal circumstances, for the safety of tourists, the top speed is not used to drive. Therefore, its average speed Just about three to five meters per second?
So, by the time Xiaoxia and Xiaojian took the cable car and successfully arrived at the extremely cold mountain top covered with ice and snow, more than twenty minutes had passed.
At this time, Xiaozhi and Xiaodan had only climbed less than one-fifth of the distance. It would take at least an hour or two, or even longer, to reach the top of the mountain.
As for Annie, Xiaoxia and Xiaojian said that they didn't see it when they came up.
They had always been worried about this, and once thought that Annie had accidentally been trapped in an inconspicuous place, or had accidentally fallen under a cliff. Therefore, they planned to wait for Xiaozhi and Xiaodan. It’s time to ask those who came up together, and then discuss countermeasures or something!
But the result...
What they didn't expect and couldn't imagine was that when they arrived at the top of the cold Naipulu Island and the center of the cable car in the ice and snow, they were shocked to discover as soon as they got off the car:
Not far away, in the vast white ice and snow, a small red figure, that terrible little girl, was squatting next to the geysers on the top of the mountain, mysteriously and mysteriously. Know what you are messing with.
"Hello!"
"Xiaoxia..."
"Look, is that person Annie?"
Seeing this, Xiao Jian felt a little unbelievable and rubbed his eyes, then pulled Xiao Xia and asked in a tone as if he had seen a ghost.
"It must be!"
"I recognized him at a glance, otherwise who else do you think it would be?"
Without even thinking about it, Xiaoxia gave the other party a direct answer in the affirmative.
However, it is not difficult to know from her frown that although she is very sure, her doubts in her heart must be no less than that of Xiao Jian next to her!
"But……"
"We came up by cable car, and she climbed the mountain, right?"
"Um."
"That's true."
"If you say so..."
"Judging from the fact that we didn't see her figure all the way, we can conclude that her climbing speed is even faster than ours taking the cable car?"
"It seems like that..."
"But!"
"Is that possible?"
"How come someone can climb a mountain faster than taking a cable car? Is she cheating?"
"It must be like that, right?"
"Did she ask Mew to use her superpowers to make her fly up?"
"I have no idea……"
"But judging from the speed at which she climbed the mountain at the beginning, it can't be said to be cheating?"
"And look!"
"She didn't release the dream at all!"
"Too……"
"So is she a monster?"
"Or is she a humanoid Pokémon?"
"oops!"
"Xiao Jian! Isn't it great that Annie passed the assessment? The owner here didn't say she cheated, so let's not worry too much!"
"Perhaps she is gifted and particularly good at mountain climbing?"
"this……"
"Let's go!"
"Don't do this or that, let's go over quickly and take a look to see what she is doing."
After saying that, Xiaojian and Xiaoxia each pulled two blankets and wrapped them in the house in the center of the cable car to keep out the cold, then strode towards the one not far away who was squatting next to the steaming geysers. A bad little girl rushed over.
"Annie?"
"ha!"
"It's really you!"
"When did you come up?"
When she got closer and took a look, she found that it was indeed Annie, and that she was using a stick or two to stir something into the boiling hot spring. After Xiaoxia didn't hide her surprise at all, she asked cheeringly.
"ah!"
!(;o)o
When she suddenly heard a sound, Annie, who was concentrating on fiddling with something, couldn't help being startled and almost jumped up.
"Sister Xiaoxia?"
(▽)
"Why did you come here?"
( ヘ)
"It's so slow!"
ヾ(=ω=)o
However, when she saw that it was two idiots who came up on the cable car, Annie muttered and asked casually, and then continued to squat down and mess around in the pool with a wooden stick.
"What did you say?"
"just came?"
"this……"
Xiaoxia looked at Xiaojian subconsciously, and then asked curiously and cautiously:
"that……"
"When did you come up?"
Xiaoxia felt that it was very necessary for her to figure this out.
"when?"
(.)
"Um……"
(`)
"It seemed like ten minutes ago. What's wrong? Is there any problem?"
(▽)
Anne was a little confused, but she still answered honestly.
"!!"
"Ten minutes ago?"
"In other words, it only took you less than ten minutes to... climb this mountain that is nearly three to four thousand meters high?"
"Isn't this possible?"
"It took us a full twenty minutes to take the cable car, but you are actually faster than us taking the cable car, and so much faster?"
"You must have cheated, right?"
Now, even Xiaoxia somewhat believes that Annie must be cheating secretly.
Just like...
From Xiaoxia's point of view, Annie could secretly let Mew out, make Mew invisible, and then let Mew use superpowers to make herself as light as a swallow, so that she could complete the climb in just ten minutes. The towering mountains of Naipuru Island, covered with ice and snow?
That's right!
It must be like that!
After all, it has been twenty minutes now, and Xiaozhi and Mr. Xiaodan have only climbed less than a fifth, but Annie has already reached the top. If she is not cheating, she, Annie's best friend and best friend The world-class beautiful girl is the first one not to believe it!
"You just cheated!"
o(*｀ー)o
"With such a small mountain, why do people need to cheat?"
(ˉ▽￣~)Cut~~
Annie was too lazy to explain to the other party, and just continued to squat by the pool and use a wooden stick to poke her into the water.
After all, she wouldn't say: She could have come up a long time ago, maybe it didn't even take five minutes? And the extra time was just because she took the time to grab some things midway, otherwise she could have gone faster!
Of course, she didn't bother to explain too much about those things. If the other party believed her, she would be held back if she didn't.
"you!!"
"Huh?"
"what……"
Xiaoxia was about to say something more, but was held back by Xiaojian.
"Shh..."
"Xiaoxia."
"Whether it's cheating or not, as long as the owner here doesn't find out, let's not say too much, what do you think?"
Xiaojian saw that Xiaoxia still wanted to make a loud statement, so he hurriedly came to her ear and whispered these two words.
"correct!"
"Where is the owner of Naipuru Island?"
Then, Xiaojian quickly changed the topic, and after looking around, he asked Annie strangely:
"Why haven't you seen anyone?"
"Annie?"
"Did you see it?"
Anyway, neither he nor Xiaoxia saw anyone at the cable car center just now, and since Annie had reached the top more than ten minutes ago, he felt that Annie must know more than them.
"The owner?"
(⊙_⊙)?
"No!"
(⊙o⊙*)
"When I first came here, there was no one here!"
()
"It's just you two now?"
(^▽^)
Annie raised her head and glanced at the two of them, then smiled and said without thinking.
"No way?"
"No one?"
"How can this be?"
Hearing this, Xiaoxia and Xiaojian looked at each other in shock again.
"ah!"
"I see!"
"That Mr. Xiao Dan, he is probably the owner of Naipuru Island!"
"That must be it!"
"No wonder!"
"That makes sense."
Immediately afterwards, Xiaoxia exclaimed, and combined with the various behaviors and abnormalities of the previous Xiao Dan, she quickly came to that shocking conclusion after thinking for a while.
"It surprised me that……"
"This is what happened!"
He rubbed his chin and thought for a while, and finally Xiaojian nodded, agreeing with Xiaoxia's guess and thinking that it was probably the truth.
"..."
~o(▽｀o)
Annie didn't care about those nonsense at all. She just continued to squat next to the hot spring and play with her water, and her expression became more and more expectant.
"??"
"Strange, what is Annie doing?"
"I just wanted to ask."
Soon, after reaching a certain conclusion, Xiaoxia finally turned her attention to Annie again, and hesitantly leaned over and looked at it for a while before asking strangely.
"nothing much!"
(^▽^)
“Just get something delicious!”
(゜▽＾*)
Annie spoke thiefly and mysteriously, still not wanting to explain.
"ah?"
"delicious?"
"What can be delicious in this world of ice and snow?"
Listening to Annie's words and looking at Annie's pretty face, Xiaoxia couldn't help but be startled, then she frowned and said with a weird look on her face.
"Of course!"
ヽ(⌒ω⌒)
"look!"
☆(o*ω)
"It's a hot spring egg!"
(ψ｀▽′)o~
Soon, after seeing that the fire was almost done, Annie used a wooden stick to pick out a hot, round 'hot spring egg' from the pool water and put it directly into Xiaoxia's hand, which was a little dazed.
"??"
"This is……"
Seeing that there was actually something to eat hidden in the pool, Xiaoxia was surprised and surprised, so of course she subconsciously reached out and took it.
But...
"Wow!!!"
"So hot!"
"So hot! So hot!!!"
The next second!
Under Annie's gloating smile and Xiao Jian's stunned look on her side, Xiaoxia jumped up in surprise, and after changing hands several times, she finally thought of throwing the hot thing on the snow. .
"It's really an egg..."
"Xiaoxia!"
"Is your hand okay?"
First he expressed concern for Xiaoxia, and then Xiaojian reached out and carefully picked up the 'hot spring egg' from the snow that was gradually being submerged and cooled by snowflakes and snow water.
"Annie, where did you find this?"
"What bird's egg is it?"
"Is it tasty?"
Pokémon observer Xiao Jian asked curiously after picking it up and looking at it for a while, but couldn't tell what kind of egg it was.
"I won't tell you!"
()hey-hey!
"But there's still a lot in the pool, so if you want to eat it, just fish it out yourself!"
()╭
As she spoke, Annie picked up another one from the pool with a wooden stick, then smashed the eggshell open on the spot and ate it while it was still hot.
In fact, she discovered this thing halfway on the mountainside, and then she caught one to study it, but how could she have imagined that they would come out in a swarm to attack her?
then!
Angry and evil arose in her heart, so she just didn't stop doing anything and just ate them all in one pot!
When she reached the top of the mountain, she saw that there were volcanic geysers and hot spring water pools, so she simply threw them all into the spring water and boiled them.
That was the main reason why the two of them just saw her squatting by the pool and messing around. After all, those eggs were not very honest at the beginning. She kept trying to float up and escape, but with great difficulty she pressed them into the pool water and boiled them.
(…)
(●￣￣●)
"Well!!"
“It’s surprisingly delicious!”
"Xiaoxia!"
"Would you like to try it soon?"
At this time, Xiao Jian, who was hesitating, followed Annie and peeled off the hot spring egg in his hand. Then, when he broke off a piece and found that it was particularly delicious, he quickly broke off the smaller half and handed it to Xiaoxia's hand. And urged.
"!!"
After just one bite, Xiaoxia couldn't hold back any longer.
"Wow!"
“Really delicious!”
"I want more!"
"Hurry up and get one for me!"
So, before she could finish swallowing everything in her mouth, she grabbed the two wooden sticks in Annie's hand, and then used the wooden sticks as chopsticks to quickly dig them out of the hot pool.

【Hot spring boiled eggs】
Hot spring eggs are a traditional delicacy that is loved by many people. Although its production process is relatively simple, making perfect and delicious hot spring eggs requires some skills.
For example, how to catch as many 'balls' as possible?
'Egg' is a type of grass-type and super-type Pokémon. They look like six light pink eggs. There will be some cracks on the eggshells. The general arrangement is five heads squeezed into the sixth head. The surroundings are very magical.
What's even more amazing is that each of its heads has a slightly different facial expression. Some are smiling, some are angry, and some are sad. Among them, only the smiling one is complete and has no cracks.
Each face of 'Dandan' has a small mouth and triangular eyes with small, black cone-shaped pupils, and the most amazing thing is: one of the six eggs will definitely have an exposed yolk.
The six balls added together can only count as one individual. Even if one ball is missing for some reason, it will definitely return to six by the next morning. The reason is temporarily unknown.
The 'eggs' will attract each other, rolling together, and each egg will attract each other and rotate. If the six eggs are not put together, it will not be able to maintain balance. Even if you just want to take apart one of them, it will The six of them immediately assemble due to their strong attraction to each other, but as soon as they are cooked thoroughly, their magical properties will completely disappear.
The eggshell on the surface of the egg is quite hard, even harder than a chicken egg. Even if it cracks, it can continue to live as long as the yolk inside does not leak out. If the cracks on the eggshell increase, it means It's about to evolve.
Anyway!
Although they look like eggs, they are actually real Pokémon. They are some kind of creatures close to plant seeds. It is said that they have both plant and other genetic genes?
And what’s even more interesting is: if you mistakenly think they are just ordinary eggs and touch them, will they continue to gather partners and launch group attacks? Therefore, if you make good use of this, you can easily capture all the 'eggs' in an entire area. This is a very good way to reduce the workload for food collection workers.
Production Method:
First, let's take a look at the making process of 'hot spring eggs'.
The main raw material of 'hot spring egg' is 'egg', followed by hot springs with a suitable temperature. Therefore, there is only one key point in making it: control the heat!
Only when the heat is accurately controlled so that the protein of the 'egg' is tender and the yolk is semi-solid is the most delicious and best time to eat it.
Production steps:
1. Prepare materials: some 'eggs'.
2. Put the 'Egg' into the pot, add enough water to completely soak the 'Egg' and clean it for later use.
3. Find a hot spring with a suitable water temperature, then throw all the 'Eggs' into the hot spring and stir them from time to time to prevent them from escaping.
4. When the 'Eggs' no longer resist, continue to wait until the hot springs thoroughly cook the 'Eggs'.
5. After soaking in the hot spring for about ten minutes, take out the boiled eggs and immediately put them into the snow to soak for a while. After the surface has cooled, tap the eggshell lightly and peel off the eggshell with your fingers. Open and ready to eat.
above!
It is a common method of making 'hot spring eggs'.
By strictly controlling the heat and soaking time, the degree of semi-solid state of the yolk can be adjusted. In addition, if conditions permit, you can prepare some dipping sauces made of soy sauce, tea leaves or other seasonings to increase the taste and flavor of the hot spring eggs.
Summarize:
Here are some key factors for preparing the perfect 'onsen egg':
1. Appearance: A high-quality hot spring egg should have a complete oval appearance with no obvious damage or cracks.
Therefore, the 'egg' with a smile and no cracks is the top grade, followed by the others, and the egg with visible yolk is the lowest grade.
2. Eggshell: The shell of an egg should be smooth and hard, with no obvious deformations or spots (but will become brittle when cooked).
3. Egg white: The protein of hot spring eggs should be tender and smooth, not sticky or elastic, and should not be cooked too hard or too hard.
4. Egg yolk: The yolk of high-quality hot spring eggs should be uniform, plump, bright in color, and best when it is semi-solid and does not melt.
5. Aroma: When tasting, high-quality hot spring eggs should have a strong egg aroma, fresh but not greasy and with a touch of hot spring water.
Anyway!
Making a high-quality hot spring egg requires mastering the appropriate heat and techniques. Only by evaluating the appearance, texture, and taste of the hot spring egg and trying many times can you taste the best hot spring egg.

"Hello!"

"Don't eat spicy food so fast, these belong to others!"
o(*｀)o
"Don't grab it!"
(Д≡д)!?
"hateful!"
(﹏、)
that's all!
While Xiaozhi, Pikachu and Xiaodan were working hard to climb the mountain and faced many dangers, and even had to battle wits with the elusive Team Rocket, a certain troubled little girl was on the top of the mountain with Xiaoxia and Xiaojian. As they feasted on the warm hot springs, they completely forgot the purpose of coming here.
