February 11th.
Zhulan left the villa. It was extremely difficult for her to spare two days for special training for Xu Qiansu at this time.
It was expected that he would go to the ruins to explore tomorrow. Xu Qiansu did not relax or increase the intensity of training. He trained as usual.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Zhulan returned to the villa, took a shower, had something to eat, and then went directly to the room to sleep. It seemed that even the champion was just a 9-to-10 worker at this time. No wonder the champion of the Fengyuan region Dawu would avoid this identity and go straight to digging for rocks.
However, there are only a few busy periods of the year, otherwise Zhulan would not have time to do archeology and become a famous mythology scholar.
February 12th.
At eight o'clock in the morning, after breakfast, the alliance gave the news that the Zhulan ruins had been opened.
According to the original plan, either the alliance would send personnel directly to investigate, or they would take precautions and wait for Zhulan to finish her busy work before going there in person.
Zhulan's answer to the alliance was the second one... and then drove Xu Qiansu and Ma Li away from the villa.
Exploring the ruins was no longer a priority at this moment. They went because Team Galaxy might go.
Xu Qiansu had no grudges with Team Galaxy in the past, and he had no grudges recently. Even the purpose and location of Team Galaxy's troubles had nothing to do with him. However, as an Interpol, arresting anti-social elements seemed to be his job.
However, Xu Qiansu did not tell Shiori about this. After all, everything was just speculation, and there was no real evidence that Team Galaxy would be present.
Xu Qiansu sat in the back seat, holding Qilulian in her arms, looking at the buildings flying by in front of her eyes.
The small marsupial, Vulpix, and Vine Snake all had their pokeballs taken back by him. The Snow Demon Girl was also left in the villa by him because she was not good at fighting.
Xu Qiansu originally thought that he might need to prepare some professional equipment for exploring ruins, but Pokémon can basically do what those equipment can do, so he gave up the idea.
There was no words along the way, and within a moment, Zhulan drove them away from Binhai City and stopped in a forest outside the city.
Xu Qiansu and Ma Li got out of the car and looked around.
The fresh and natural smell fills the tip of your nose.
This is a hillside with dense vegetation, and sunlight falls through the branches and leaves of the forest.
It's unremarkable, nothing noteworthy.
Xu Qiansu looked at Zhulan.
But Zhulan directly released a fierce bite land shark.
"Dig a hole."
Lie Jie Lu Shark nodded slightly and leaned down directly. Within a moment, a dark cave wide enough to accommodate two adults walking side by side appeared in front of them.
"I thought you would arrange people within the alliance to use some tricks to bring us in." Xu Qiansu said with a smile.
"This is the most convenient way." Zhulan was too lazy to do those twists and turns. She just remembered the location and asked Lie Biting Lu Shark to dig in. With Lie Biting Lu Shark's experience of accompanying her to the ruins for many years, she had no idea about this matter. It can be considered a familiar road, and you can do it with your eyes closed.
"Roar..." Liejie Lusha walked out of the hole and nodded slightly to Zhulan.
"If I find any trace of Team Galaxy, I'll ask you... If I don't find it, just take some photos and bring some things back." Zhulan asked, in fact, it doesn't matter even if Xu Qiansu finds nothing, Zhulan's original intention is to give Xu Qiansu Do some work so that he won't be trapped by favors...but now he has Team Galaxy in trouble.
And it seems that he can repay a favor by pinching his feet...
"Understood." Xu Qiansu nodded, waved her hand, said no more, and stepped directly into the dark cave with Ma Li.
Zhulan looked at their backs, and after a while threw a Poké Ball.
Along with the blue light, a Pokémon appeared in front of her.
"Follow them, act accordingly, and make protecting them your first priority."
"Oh~"
Although Qilulian's teleportation could take Xu Qiansu and the others away directly, Zhulan still did not destroy the cave directly, but buried the traces before driving away.
The phone kept beeping...the Alliance was urging her.
"Oh, it's really troublesome... After these things are dealt with, why don't you let Xu Qiansu pinch your feet again..."
…
In the dim and quiet passage, Xu Qiansu had already released the small marsupial, Vulpix, Vine Snake... Except for Eevee, Ma Li had also released her own Pokémon.
Ibrahimovic is still in the growth stage, and it is too early for her to explore the ruins.
Vulpix walked at the front, with sparks on its light red fur, providing light and illuminating the way forward.
The sound of slight footsteps echoed in the passage, which seemed extremely harsh at this quiet moment.
Xu Qiansu looked at the endless passage ahead and asked softly: "Has Miss Ma Li ever had this kind of experience exploring ruins before?"
Xu Qiansu walked in front of Ma Li and did not look back at her.
"Have you forgotten the ruins when you first met Vulpix?" Ma Li looked at Xu Qiansu's back and responded.
"Woo~" The Vulpix who was walking at the front had her ears and tail pulled down. She had just been unblocked at that time, and she thought she was living in a troubled world where humans and Pokémon were fighting each other...
"Quack." The Croak-headed Frog walked beside Vulpix and comforted him. He lost control a few days ago and hurt Ma Li... As a result, he also lowered his head in grievance.
"Cha Cha——" The pickpocket cat walked gracefully and laughed at them both mercilessly.
"Chirp chirp -" Vine Snake was also laughing, then he turned his head and looked at Pickpocket Cat, his big burgundy eyes filled with displeasure, and then he was directly picked up by Xu Qiansu and held in his arms.
The Vine Snake struggled, "Bo Chu Bo!"
You are biased! Why did you arrest me instead of her? I know you don’t like snakes, you just like cats, foxes and other Pokémon!
The pickpocket cat glanced sideways at the rattle snake making a fuss in Xu Qiansu's arms, snorted, turned away, and was then picked up by Ma Li, stroking the soft hair on her back.
Chilulian sat on Xu Qiansu's shoulders, swaying her calves, and glanced down at the Vine Snake, thinking that this snake was much better than the Vulpix... at least it wouldn't get angry.
Xu Qiansu didn't care about the fight among the Pokémon. He looked at Kirulian and said, "If you sense traces of humans with your mental power, tell me in time."
Kirulian nodded slightly, she would never let down her guard.
Within a moment, a pothole appeared in front of them.
Vulpix jumped down first, followed by the frog and the little marsupial.
Xu Qiansu hugged the Vine Snake and then jumped down, stepping on the hard stone bricks and making a soft sound.
He turned back and stretched out his hand, holding Ma Li's soft little hand.
After Ma Li jumped down lightly, Xu Qiansu turned her head and looked around.
This is a passage, and the walls are inlaid with stones that emit a shimmering light, like pearls at night, providing light.
The walls are engraved with simple patterns, with an inexplicable mysterious charm.
Ma Li looked at both sides of the passage, judging the position and orientation.
She whispered: "According to Zhulan, this ruins is initially judged to be divided into five floors... According to the height, this should be the third floor... Release your hands."
Xu Qian let go of Ma Li's soft little hand without leaving a trace, then took out her mobile phone and took a few photos of the patterns on the wall. She then stretched out her hand and wiped the dust on the wall, then tilted her head and said, "Let's go first Go down and explore...look for the stairs, dig a hole directly, otherwise you will lose more than you gain if you destroy the ruins."
After deciding on their decision, the two of them did not stay where they were. They chose a direction and walked forward under the dim light of the night pearl.
Kirulian spread her mental power, closed her eyes and felt without speaking.
The little marsupial walked closely behind Xu Qiansu with its short legs, curiously looking left and right, hoping that a big rock snake would appear again this time... Huh, after practicing for so long, I won't be afraid this time You da.
She thought of this, but unconsciously stretched out her little claws to grab Xu Qiansu's trouser legs.
Then from the corner of her eye, she saw a pair of bright yellow eyes suddenly opened on the wall. Those eyes seemed to be cold, murderous, and violent.
"Karu!" The little marsupial's petite body shook suddenly, jumped up, and threw itself into Xu Qiansu's arms.
"Chirp..." The Vine Snake was squeezed by the little marsupial so that its little face was deformed. It made a muffled sound from its mouth, and then squeezed it out of Xu Qiansu's arms, jumped to the ground, raised its eyes, and looked crookedly. Head, a slender vine whip protrudes from the neck.
Snapped!
It was like a big cock hitting the wall, sending a disk-shaped creature spinning several times in the air.
“Dangdang————”
A crisp sound like a collision came from the disc-shaped creature, and anyone could hear the overwhelming anger contained in it.
Snapped!
The Vine Snake used its vine whip to give the disc creature a hard blow, and then made it spin a few more times like a spinning top.
“Dangdang————”
The anger was gone, but instead there was a sense of flattery.
The Vine Snake snorted and said arrogantly: "What's so arrogant about a broken mirror?"
Ma Li took out the illustrated book and scanned it towards the disc-shaped creature.
"Bronze Mirror Monster, Bronze Pokémon..." Ma Li murmured to herself, and then took a look at the Bronze Mirror Monster floating in the air, which was completely bronze.
"The Bronze Mirror Monster can be regarded as an old resident of the ruins... But the Vine Whip is a grass-based skill, and it won't hurt when it hits you. What are you afraid of?" Xu Qiansu stretched out her hand and squeezed the Bronze Mirror Monster's hard body, and asked with a smile. road.
The Bronze Mirror Monster almost cried. Is it afraid of the vine snake? Don't even look at the Pokémon following you... They are all vicious. They have lived in this ruins all their lives and have never seen these Pokémon before. How can they not be afraid?
"There are some good things here, just take us there." The pickpocket cat lay in Ma Li's arms, looking at the Bronze Mirror Monster, like a superior empress, and ordered in an unquestionable tone.
"Are you a robber?" Vine Snake raised his face and said scornfully.
"Aren't you just here to find treasures? Why are you so polite?" Pickpocket Cat was once the leader of a forest, with hundreds of Pokémon under his control. Every word and deed carried the majesty of a superior.
"Vulgar." But the Vine Snake was not afraid of her.
"Hypocrisy." Except for Xu Qiansu and Ma Li, no one could make the pickpocket cat submissive.
"ha?"
"ah?"
The two Pokémon were facing each other, staring at each other, neither of them convinced of the other.
Xu Qiansu tapped the Vine Snake's forehead and said to the Bronze Mirror Monster: "Don't be afraid, we don't intend to hurt you..."
As he spoke, he took out a can of elf food from his backpack and said, "But we are really here to find something."
Even through the packaging, the Bronze Mirror Monster could smell the alluring aroma of the elf food... only to see Xu Qiansu unwrap it directly and hand it to it.
"Eat it, it will be compensation for the vine snake attacking you just now."
Tengteng Snake turned his face away and hummed.
The Bronze Mirror Monster was a bit unable to react. Although it had never seen anything on the market, it knew that using this precious food as a reward should wait until it completed its mission... Why did this human just give it to me? ?
Can't understand.
There were a lot of questions in my heart, but the body of the Bronze Mirror Monster was very honest. It floated beside Xu Qiansu's hand and devoured the elf food. As it ate, it started to shed tears.
Wow wow wow, I have never tasted such delicious food.
Xu Qiansu looked at the Bronze Mirror Monster and thought that its body was just such a thin piece. Where did the food get into it?
Pokémon are truly magical.
Ma Li looked around. Even though Chirulian was investigating, she never let down her guard.
Within a moment, the jar of elf food was completely eaten by the Bronze Mirror Monster. It was so moved that it wanted to get closer and kiss Xu Qiansu's face. However, as soon as it got closer, Chirulian's eyes were closed and she opened them. Knock it away with one punch.
"Thank you, thank you. What kind of kiss?" She glanced at the Bronze Mirror Monster and said bluntly.
The Bronze Mirror Monster didn't take it seriously and flew back again, floating around Xu Qiansu, very happy.
What a great person~
After floating for a while, it flew in one direction, signaling Xu Qiansu to follow.
"I have lived in this ruins since I was a child. Although I don't know what a treasure is, I heard that you humans like shiny things, so they must be treasures... Don't worry, follow me, and I won't let you come in vain. Da~ But why did you come here? I have lived for a long time and have never seen a human being... Did you fall in because of an accident? Well, I will find a way to help you escape~"
The crisp sound of clang clang clang could not help but come from the bronze mirror monster, which made the pickpocket cat and the vine snake twitch their eyes, wishing to give it another big fight... Why does this mirror talk so much.
Vulpix sniffed left and right with his nose from time to time to find something that Kirulian couldn't find.
The little marsupial lay in Xu Qiansu's arms, resting her little head on Xu Qiansu's shoulder, looking at Vulpix, then chuckled, and sniffed hard. Unfortunately, her sense of smell was not sensitive. After smelling for a long time, she only smelled Xu Qiansu. The smell of body wash.
At this moment, Vulpix suddenly turned back and looked in the direction they came from. Her six fluffy and cute big tails were swaying gently. This was a sign of her alertness, but in just a moment, the smell disappeared.
But Vulpix did not let down her guard. She jumped directly onto Xu Qiansu's shoulders and licked the side of his face.
"Ugh~ (There seems to be something dirty behind there~)" Vulpix whispered.
Xu Qiansu looked back at the empty passage behind her, kept walking, pondered for a moment, and whispered: "Be prepared, don't act rashly, and see what it wants to do."
Vulpix nodded, kissed Xu Qiansu again, and then jumped down.
Kirulian glanced sideways at the stinky fox, thinking that this was a sensitive period, so she didn't start a fight with her.
"Is this a treasure?" At this moment, the Bronze Mirror Monster led everyone to a room on the side of the passage, picked through the messy space, and used his mind to hold up a strange, shiny stone. , asked curiously.
Ma Li took a few glances and saw that the stone was not a special item useful for Pokémon, but she still took it and put it in her bag, thinking that it might be of research value for Zhulan.
Bronze Mirror Hanger laughed happily.
It feels like it's still useful.
It rummaged for a while and took out all kinds of shiny treasures that it thought were useful.
Mirrors, small bottles, pendants, badges embroidered with a large deer with stunning antlers...
Ma Li and Xu Qian always accepted everyone who came and took whatever they had. Fortunately, they were all small items that didn't take up much space.
The Bronze Mirror Monster took them to a few more rooms. Although it was very happy to find them, they were actually things of little value to Xu Qiansu and Ma Li.
"1,000 years ago..." Xu Qiansu looked at the year engraved on a vase. Compared with the current day, he determined the age of this ruins.
"1,000 years ago... wasn't it the era of Xicui?"
The distance between Xicui and modern times is basically around 1,000 years.
Xu Qiansu looked around the room, pulled out a black and purple pendant, wiped the dust off, handed it to Ma Li, and said with a smile, "To you 1,000 years from now."
Ma Li raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at the small pendant. She thought it was quite beautiful, so she hung it on her mobile phone, looked at it a few more times, and then nodded with satisfaction.
"Thank you Mr. Xu for the gift from 1,000 years ago."
With that said, Ma Li rummaged through her bag, took out a gold and silver pendant, and handed it to Xu Qiansu.
This was also found in this ruins.
Xu Qiansu smiled, looked at it a few times, and followed Ma Li's example, and hung up on his mobile phone.
"It's quite beautiful. The color scheme feels a bit like alpaca." He looked at the pendant and sighed.
boom!
Suddenly, a muffled sound sounded from a distance, the earth trembled a little, and dust flew down from the top of the head.
Either it’s explosives, or it’s a Pokémon’s extremely destructive skill.
Xu Qiansu looked away after hearing the sound, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she whispered: "The Alliance...will mine the ruins in this way?"
"Team Galaxy." Ma Li said quietly.
The possibility of Team Galaxy appearing here is at least 80%, not to mention 10%...
