But before leaving, Fan Shilang was still very enthusiastic about taking Xiaozhi and Xiaozhi to a good place.
After all, if Xiaozhi and the others hadn't happened to pass by this time, the Nuannuan pig might really have died here.
When something like this happened, it had a huge impact on his grandfather's reputation.
"Let's go, I'll take you to the Forest of Oaths~!"
Fan Shilang hooked his hand and took the initiative to lead the way.
Xiaozhi and Xiaozhi looked at each other, not knowing what was happening. Even Mingyi, a native of the Hezhong area, had heard of this place for the first time.
Following Fan Shilang's guidance, we saw that the northeastern exit of Zuanmu Town leads to Route 20, and if we continue walking, we will reach Zuanmu Ranch.
Adek's house is located on the other side of the town, on the northwest edge, with the forest mountains behind it.
After walking around the courtyard, the two discovered that there was a small back door at the back of the house. When they opened it, they saw a straight jungle path leading deep into the house.
The path is only about one meter wide and is quite narrow.
There are stacked rock platforms on both sides, and dense shrubs grow above them, blocking the paths on both sides.
It seems that this hidden path is the only way to the end called the 'Forest of Oaths', and cannot be entered from other places.
Xiaozhi and the two followed in a daze, looking around. The leaves above the path were gathered very densely.
Even in broad daylight, the light becomes a bit dim.
"Looking down from the outside, it would be difficult to find this road..."
Xiaozhi thought to himself.
It was the first time for Mingyi to come to such a place, and she subconsciously grabbed Xiaozhi's arm.
He comforted him:
"Don't be afraid Mingyi. Although it's a little dark here, I can feel the breath here... It's a very comfortable breath!"
Don't know how to describe it.
As soon as Xiaozhi came here, he had the urge to take off his clothes, go shirtless, and do 1,000 push-ups on the spot.
"Feeling, breath?"
Mingyi blinked and couldn't help but recall that Xiaozhi also felt the weak Nuannuanzhu inside through the closed door...
Before they could ask any more questions, a few people had already walked about a hundred meters and arrived at a small, empty square.
Although the location is not very wide, there is still enough room for three or four Pokémon to move around at the same time.
Above, there are still green leaves extending from the surrounding branches, covering the lower part, but the light is better than on the path in front. Scattered sunlight falls here through the gaps between the branches and leaves.
"How about it, this is the place of vows~!"
Fan Shilang opened his arms, took a deep breath, and proudly introduced the two of them.
After all, there is a secret base connected to your own backyard, which is exciting.
"My grandpa and I have been training Pokémon here since we were little~! Grandpa also often came here to train when he was young!"
Since his burning bugs have been unable to evolve, this time Fanshilang decided to return to his original intention and practice in seclusion with the burning bugs for a period of time in this hidden place.
"Is it a training place for the league champion..."
Xiaozhi's eyes widened and he looked around.
There are many extremely hard rocks growing around this small square. He can even see the surface of the rocks, which still retains many traces of blows. It seems that someone has experienced a long period of exercise here!
"Speaking of this rock..."
However, Xiaozhi's eyes finally landed on a giant rock about three or four meters high standing in the deepest part of the Forest of Oaths.
Similarly, there are several slashing cracks above.
But what surprised Xiaozhi was that three slash marks could be vaguely recognized on it, and the appearance of these three slash marks were completely different from each other.
"Don't move that stone!"
Fan Shilang quickly interrupted, treating it like a treasure and saying:
"According to Grandpa, the slash marks on this rock are the marks left by the legendary Pokémon when they were trained here. They are precious relics!"
"It is said that the fighting spirit left by the legendary Pokémon still remains on it. If outsiders watch it from time to time, they might be able to learn new moves!"
Listening to Fan Shilang's amazing performance, both Xiaozhi and Mingyi glanced at him sideways, not quite believing it.
Isn't it too metaphysical to understand a new move just by looking at three slash marks on the stone?
"It's true! My grandfather's knight snail, because he watched this boulder for a long time, learned a move that his own race could never learn - the holy sword!"
Come and try it quickly. 】
Fan Shilang hurriedly defended.
Outside news is very familiar with Adek's Pokémon and knows that the latter has a special Snail Rider that has mastered the unique move of the Holy Sword.
But no one knows that it is here that they realize it.
However, Fan Shilang had let his Pokémon stare at this stone for a long time without any reaction...
"Is this the Holy Sword's ultimate move?"
Xiaozhi recalled that not long ago, he had seen the Pokémon named Biligion perform this move in the finals of the Sinnoh League Conference.
"The legendary Pokémon in the Unova region... So one of these three slash marks should be left by Biligeon, right?"
Before Xiaozhi could say anything, Rotom had already floated up on his own initiative and kept taking pictures of the cut rock.
This is extremely precious information!
At the same time, he also broadcast the information he already had to several people.
"Beep! Biligion, Terrakion, and Copalion are the three legendary holy swordsmen known as the Unova region! Lotto~!"
Xiaozhi touched his chin. It seemed that the Forest of Oath was probably the training place of the Three Swordsmen before Mr. Adek, right?
The illustration guide quickly followed and introduced the moves of the holy sword.
"Beep! Holy Sword. Use the unyielding Holy Sword to attack. You can ignore the changes in the opponent's abilities and directly inflict powerful damage~"
"This move is generally only mastered by legendary Pokémon and a very small number of Pokémon~ Of course, some extremely talented water otters may also be able to master it, but it is unlikely for Muggle water otters to score individually! Lotto! ~!"
When saying this, the illustrated book made no secret.
It flew directly in front of Mingyi's otter, took photos "Kakaka", and attached pictures to his explanation.
“Rice wine, rice wine!!”
This made the water otter so angry that he immediately jumped in front of the rock, eyes wide open, and was about to understand the legendary "Holy Sword" move!
But no one noticed that when Pikachu first entered the Forest of Oaths, he was already attracted by this slash-marked rock.
"Pickup..."
It stood there blankly, staring at the rock without focus.
Like an old monk in meditation, motionless.
After a while, Xiaozhi noticed something strange about his Pikachu, and quickly made a shushing gesture to several people.
Pikachu this is...
An epiphany?
