Pokémon: Hoenn Storm

Chapter 639 A Preliminary Study on Cleaning Green (15)

The hard digging and mining continued until the bright moon rose into the sky.

In the face of the power of the heart and the powerful strength of his partners, no matter how deep the resources are hidden or how complex the environment is, they will be easily found and then pocketed by Lai.

A rough calculation showed that with the richness of resources in the ancient quarry, Lai and Naqi's backpacks could be filled in one to two days. If they were more frugal, they could also support several months of training.

At the same time, considering the unique energy properties of the Xicui area and the energy scale that is far more abundant than modern times, such consumption may be smaller, and it will be of great help to our partners.

Just as she was thinking about it, Naqi, who was tired of traveling, returned on the Chinese Valentine's Day Bluebird.

After landing, she rushed into the tent, picked up the water bottle, and drank the water. She was obviously very thirsty.

"I'm dying of thirst. It's so cold and dry. We searched all the nearby dozens of kilometers. Not to mention settlements, we didn't even see many traces of travellers' activities. Only the southeast The edge is a little bit longer, and the further north you go, the more remote it becomes. However, on the northeast side, I should have seen a road, but it looks very old."

After drinking enough water, Naqi put down the kettle with satisfaction and talked about her day's gains.

"How far to the northeast is it?"

"This is a picture I drew. Take a look at it roughly. I estimate it is eighty kilometers long. The road runs east-west. It almost ends not far from us."

Naqi handed over a piece of paper with a map drawn in simple strokes. Although it was a bit sloppy, the general topography was quite clearly depicted, and you could understand it at a glance.

Holding his chin lightly, Lai racked his brains and searched and compared the memories he had about washing Cui.

His impressions of this area and the stories that happened here were basically formed around the biological son that a certain alpaca brought out hand in hand, plus some familiar jokes, such as celebrations are not celebrations, and real sand is not among real sand. kind.

He only had conceptual impressions of specific areas, but did not have many specific memories.

In particular, there are quite a few differences between the Cecil region and the Sinnoh region a thousand years later. The plate movement and Pokémon migration over the millennia make the Sinnoh map unable to be simply applied to the Cecil map.

After thinking for a while, Rai remembered a slightly unfamiliar name: Pilgrim's Path.

Realizing that he had been thinking for a long time, Lai quickly folded up the simple map and put it away, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Naqi. Take a good rest. You have been running around all day. Do you want to take a foot bath to relieve your fatigue?"

"Yes, that's fine!" Naqi smiled and nodded, "But have you figured out why?"

"Swamp Monster, Big-billed Gull, use the water gun, get a bucket of water, and go to the campfire to heat it up! I do have some ideas. If nothing else, our place should be called an ancient quarry. As you can see, in The road to the northeast of us is the Pilgrim's Road. If we follow it eastward, there may be a base built by the Xicui people specifically for exploring the Tianguan Mountains, called the Mountain Base."

While greeting the giant swamp monsters and the others to get water and heat it, Lai talked about his thoughts and analyzed the surrounding situation bit by bit.

"Then shall we go to that base to take a look, and then go north, to the pillar of the spear?"

After taking off her boots with some difficulty, Naqi pressed her feet, which were a little stiff in the cold weather, and suggested.

"I also think this would be better. I think the temperature here is much colder than in Sinnoh. I need to buy you some thick warm clothes and then buy a map. Ah, thank you for your hard work, Nian Meilong , why don’t you also come to the tent to warm yourself up!”

Reaching out and touching the cute head, Lai lovingly pulled it over to sit down together. Then, he received a moderate blow on the top of his head.

Outside the tent, the natural bird turned its head proudly.

"Niao Niao, come in quickly, it's cold outside." Lai laughed dumbly, beckoned and called Niao Niao in.

As they settle down, the jealousy between the two little guys seems to be a sign that life is back on track.

"Don't worry about me. I can take it off myself. Just take care of yourself. It will be safer for us to go after you are healed."

Seeing Lai trying to take off her socks like before, Naqi felt a little embarrassed and pushed him away with a slight blush.

"I feel like I'm alive!"

After testing the water temperature, Naqi squinted her eyes in comfort, and her little feet moved up and down, appearing to enjoy it very much. "Well, I listen to you. I estimate that in a few days, this arm will be able to handle activities." Lai nodded, moved his position, and used the light to study the green-washing herbs collected by the Lizard King during the day.

The medicinal materials used in Washui are very different from modern medicinal materials, especially modern Sinnoh medicinal materials.

Taking out the medicinal materials and information that Sirona helped collect, Lai compared them carefully, and penetrated them with his heart, studying the subtle differences between these medicinal materials.

It is very different from the research in Fuyan Town that day. Two intertwined energies coexist in the medicinal materials, and the difference is more reflected in the proportion of active ingredients.

As the birthplace of ancient Chinese medicine, the quality of Sinnoh's medicinal materials is better than that of Fengyuan, and the washed green ones are better than those of later generations of Sinnoh. The proportion of active ingredients is very high, and the alien energy that needs to be removed is It only accounts for less than one-third.

According to the already mature production model of "clear the alien energy and set up the heart power triggering mechanism", several different types of medicinal materials were adjusted in just ten minutes.

Holding it in front of his eyes with satisfaction, like holding a finely crafted work of art, Lai planned to test it himself.

"Snapped"

Just as he was about to put it in his mouth, Naqi knocked a paper roll on Lai's head with a dark face, and said: "Who asked you to try the medicine on your own? Are you aware of it? Now you don't feel that you are injured or have low immunity. Right?!"

"Just in time to see the recovery effect on trauma," Lai said with a smile, Zaiqi picked up the medicinal materials and prepared to take a sip.

"You don't want to listen anymore, right?!" Naqi glared, then stood up with a "swish", and the hot water in the bucket splashed a little, "Natural bird! Sticky Beauty Dragon!"

With an order, two Pokémon, one on the left and one on the right, held Lai, and the medicinal materials in their hands were also supported by super powers and placed in Naqi's hand.

"I'll eat it, you'll check it out." Her tone was unquestionable. Naqi took a bite of a small piece of medicinal material, chewed it into pieces, and swallowed it.

"Huh?" In the midst of surprise, a warm current slowly rose up, and the chill that had been flying around during the day was dissipated in the blink of an eye. The muscle soreness caused by the fatigue of the past few days was also relieved a lot, "This thing really works. Does it work for us too?”

"let me see."

Putting his hand on Naqi's wrist, the power of the heart slowly penetrated, and Lai's eyes lit up.

Compared with Hoenn's medicinal materials, the effect is much better, and the effect on the human body is also very obvious. Although it is still not as effective as on Pokémon, it is no longer better than nothing, but can really heal injuries. At the same time replenish vitality.

"Eh? Eh?"

While she was happy, Naqi suddenly felt something was wrong.

A warm current slipped from the nose.

"Ah! Nosebleed!"

After hurriedly finding a tissue, Naqi quickly blocked it, but she still felt a little hot all over her body, so she had to unbutton her collar and fan herself gently until she started to sweat a little.

"Hurry up and put on more clothes. Don't let the wind blow after you sweat."

Lai took the spare coat and quickly put it on Na Qi, constantly urging her.

"Wow"

The already cold foot washing water was poured on the hillside not far away, and Lai shivered and shrank back into the tent.

"The temperature here at night is so low. Compared with the daytime temperature, the temperature difference is at least degrees."

Rubbing his cheek gently, he secretly recorded this information in his notebook, then picked up the medicinal material that was found to be fine after testing, bit off a small piece similar to Naqi's, chewed it, and swallowed it.
