"Giggle~"

Just as Fang Ci and Qi Shu were curiously looking at the tiny money-seeking spirit in the box, it seemed as if it suddenly sensed something. The tentacles on its head suddenly began to rotate rapidly, and finally stopped and pointed in a certain direction.

"Giggle~"

Smelling that extremely familiar breath, Suo Cailing didn't care that Fang Ci and the other man were still beside him, he jumped out of the box and ran quickly in the direction indicated by the tentacles above his head with his short legs.

"Hey, Suo Cailing, wait a minute~"

Seeing this, Fang Ci and the other man hurriedly chased after him, but after just two steps, Suo Cailing disappeared from their sight.

"Fortune Seeker (walking form), a Pokémon-seeker with ghost attributes. The Fortune Seeker in walking form was born from the passion that seeped into a coin. It does not hide in a treasure chest, but in various places in the Padia region, and seems to be wandering around in order to return to the original treasure chest. It is small and wanders around with an ancient coin on its back. It will run away as soon as someone approaches, so it seems that no trainer has successfully captured it in the Padia region. It will absorb the life force of people who try to pick up the coin to survive."

Just when the two were in a panic because of Suo Cailing's disappearance, the mechanical electronic sound of the mobile phone's atlas that had not been turned off rang again.

"By the way, the money-seeking spirit's box is still here. It contains a lot of coins that it has collected with great effort. We just need to wait here and it will definitely come back." After hearing the description in the illustration and looking at the red treasure chest on the ground, Qi Shu's eyes suddenly lit up.

"That's right. But according to the description in the illustration, it's very common for Suo Cai Ling to be so engrossed in looking for coins that he forgets where the original box is. So how about this, you stay here and guard the box, and I'll go look for it just in case." Fang Ci thought for a while and said to Qi Shu.

"Okay, I'll call you if Suo Cailing comes back."

After saying goodbye to Qi Shu, Fang Ci immediately followed the route where the Wealth-Sucking Spirit disappeared.

"Giggle~"

Although the walking form of the Thor is small, its running speed is not slow at all. This can be seen from the fact that no trainer has been able to successfully capture a walking form of the Thor in the wild until now.

Of course, the bigger reason why it has never been tamed is probably because of its timid character that makes it run away when it sees people, and its petite body that can disappear into any grass or gravel.

Not long after running out of the treasure chest, Suo Cailing ran out of the town and came to the road sign outside Yuanmo Town.

"Giggle~"

Standing under the road sign, the tentacles on Suo Cailing's head suddenly began to tremble violently.

“Hehe~!”

Seeing this, Suo Cailing immediately showed an excited expression, stuck out his little butt, and started searching in the mud under the road sign with his little hands.

“Ku ...

The radar on Suo Cailing's head, which was specially designed to find coins, had never made a mistake. Not long after, a coin that was still shining even though it was covered in mud was dug out by it.

Without having time to clean the dirt off the coin, Suo Cailing couldn't wait to stick the coin, which looked almost as big as its head, on the little tail behind it.

Just when the money-seeking spirit, which seemed to have perfectly demonstrated what it meant to be a traitor, was about to return to the box with great pride, the tentacles on its head began to spin rapidly again.

"Hmm~?"

Carrying the heavy coins, Suo Cailing looked hesitantly in the direction indicated by the antenna radar above his head. There was only a flat road extending out of Yuanmo Town. If he continued to walk forward, he would be too far away from his treasure chest. When he came back, he might not be able to get back to the treasure chest because it was beyond his sensing range. However, he was reluctant to give up the coins right in front of him.

“Hehe~!”

After a mental struggle, the desire for the coin gradually prevailed. After gently clenching his fists to encourage himself, Suo Cailing ran quickly in the direction indicated by the tentacles again.

However, this time, the fortune-seeking spirit's speed was much slower. On the one hand, it wanted to carefully remember the scenery along the way to prepare for the return. On the other hand, unlike in the town, there were too many wild elves in the grass on the roadside, forcing it to slow down cautiously.

"Gah~"

Just as Suo Cailing was cautiously groping in the direction indicated by the radar, the shining gold coins behind it also attracted the attention of another pair of eyes.

Black wings fluttered from the branches and swooped down towards the gold coins that were slowly moving in the grass.

"Hehe~?"

Suo Cailing only heard a gust of wind, and when he turned back subconsciously, he found himself caught in the air by a dark crow.

"Huh~?"

Dark Crow also discovered that there was an elf under the gold coin. He quickly grabbed the gold coin and spun it in the air in an attempt to throw the Money-Seeking Spirit off.

The money-seeking spirit would naturally not give up the gold coins that he had worked so hard to obtain and regarded as his life, so the two elves just remained deadlocked in mid-air.

Finally, after realizing that he couldn't get rid of the money-seeking spirit, Dark Crow simply took the gold coins and the money-seeking spirit and returned to his own nest.

“Hehe~!!”

Being carried farther and farther away by the Murkrow, the gold coins that originally filled the treasure chest disappeared from its perception. The Wealth-Snatching Spirit finally began to panic, but even so, it still held the gold coin covered with mud tightly and refused to let go.

As the Murkrow flew higher and higher, the vision of the Wealthy Spirit became wider and wider. The grass below was like a huge green carpet, spreading on the ground. The breeze blew, and the green grass leaves swayed gently, entrusting their fresh scent to the wind to carry it away.

The wind was stronger in the sky, and Suo Cailing had to hold the gold coin tightly to prevent his thin body from being blown down by the strong wind. Suo Cailing's face was full of panic. Looking at the grass below that stretched to the end of his sight, his small body trembled constantly. Now even he himself could not tell whether he was still holding the gold coin tightly because he was reluctant to let it go or because he was afraid of falling.

It was unknown how long had passed. The strong wind subsided a little, and Suo Cailing felt that the Dark Crow was obviously landing. Then he opened his eyes tremblingly.

"Gah~"

The Dark Crow flew into a sparse forest with the Money-Drawing Spirit and the gold coins. Following its hoarse cry, a dozen equally hoarse responses were immediately heard from the forest.

One after another, the Murk Crows slowly took off from the forest. Their jet-black feathers sparkled with a deep light under the sunlight. Seeing the newly returned Murk Crows grabbing the glittering gold coins, the other Murk Crows excitedly surrounded them.

"Gah~"

Feeling the attention of his companions, the Dark Crow who was holding the Money-Seeking Spirit couldn't help but puff out his chest with pride. For a moment, he even forgot that he had brought back not only the gold coins but also a living elf. He swaggered back to the top of a dead tree in the middle of the woods and threw the gold coins directly into the huge nest below.

"Giggle~"

Even though he fell heavily onto the hard stone, Suo Cailing still forced himself not to move, lying quietly like a dead object among the countless stones, glass, various metal pieces and other glittering small objects in the middle of the nest.

Suo Cailing just quietly pretended to be dead until the sun was able to shine through the treetops onto the nest. All kinds of glittering objects sparkled in the sunlight. The dark crows also fell into afternoon drowsiness. Only then did Suo Cailing finally dare to carefully raise his head and open his eyes.

After making sure that no Murkrow noticed him, Suo Cailing carefully climbed up, carrying his coin and was about to leave quietly. But just as he stood up, a flash of metallic light among the many gadgets in the nest instantly attracted his attention.

"Yeah~"

Seeing the familiar light, the antenna radar above Suo Cailing's head immediately began to spin rapidly, and it did not stop for half a day.

Murkrows have always had the habit of collecting all kinds of luminous objects to decorate their nests. It is obvious that there are so many things in such a large nest, which is the result of the joint efforts of the entire Murkrow clan for countless generations.

Today, a dark crow took a fancy to the gold coin on the back of the money-seeker and brought it back to the nest, which meant that this kind of thing was definitely not an isolated case in the past countless days and nights.

“Hehe~!”

The tentacles above its head were still spinning at high speed, and Suo Cailing's soul instantly turned into a helicopter and flew into the sky in excitement. For a moment, the intense joy instantly overwhelmed Suo Cailing's mind, making it forget its current situation and turn into a little treasure hunter, digging hard in the huge nest of the dark crows.

Murkrows were not very energetic during the day, and especially at noon, they all hid in the shadows of leaves and closed their eyes tiredly. They were so sleepy that they had no idea that a thief who arrived here by accident had already turned their nest, which they regarded as a glory, upside down.

"Giggle!"

The sun was setting, and the dark crows in the woods gradually regained their vitality. Suo Cailing, who had been busy for half a day, wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead and looked at the dozen or so gold coins piled high in front of him with a satisfied smile.

In front of its beloved gold coins, the little money-seeking spirit seemed to be able to exert infinite strength. It easily carried up more than a dozen gold coins that were several times heavier than itself. Just when it was trying to sneak away with the gold coins carefully on its back, a black shadow suddenly blocked the sunlight above its head.

"Hehe~?"

Suo Cailing raised his head cautiously and happened to meet the angry gaze of the Crow Leader.

"Gah~!"

Seeing that an elf dared to come to his nest and intend to steal the treasures he had collected with great effort, the crow leader immediately became furious. With a hoarse howl, countless dark crows flapped their wings at the same time and surrounded the little money-seeking spirit in its nest in three layers.

"Giggle~"

Looking at the dozens of ferocious eyes staring at him, Suo Cailing smiled awkwardly and immediately put the stack of gold coins on his back back into the nest.

"Gah~"

However, even so, it was obviously not enough to calm the anger of the Crow Chief. When he saw Suo Cailing put down the gold coins, the Crow Chief yelled and pounced on Suo Cailing, opening his mouth wide to teach this ignorant little bug a lesson.

"Love butler, magic shines!"

Looking at the crow's mouth gradually getting bigger in his sight, just when Suo Cailing closed his eyes in despair, a voice that sounded somewhat familiar suddenly rang out.

The dazzling pink light instantly illuminated the entire dark forest. The Murkrows flying in the air were caught off guard and could not open their eyes. They fell to the ground one after another. Even the crow leader was blinded by the flash and forgot to attack for a moment, covering his eyes and wailing.

Hearing the screams of the Crow Chief and the Dark Crows, Suo Cai Ling, who had just closed his eyes, slowly opened his eyes. Before he could react to what was happening, a pale big hand nestled him in its furry palm, and with the other hand, he picked up a dozen gold coins scattered in the nest and jumped under the tree.

"They're about to react, let's run!"

Seeing that the crow leader on the nest was shaking its head violently and was about to wake up, Fang Ci hurriedly took back the butler and took Zoroark to run in the direction they came from.

“Hehe~!”

When Zoroak returned to Fang Ci and saw Fang Ci's still unfamiliar face, Suo Cailing finally let go of the anxiety in his heart. He struggled to jump from Zoroak's palm to Fang Ci's shoulder, and ran out of the woods with him.

"Gah~"

At this time, the leader of the crows finally reacted. He looked at the fleeing backs of Fang Ci and the others and roared. The dark crows on the ground, which had also recovered, flew up one after another and, led by their leader, chased after the fleeing figure in front.

"Gah~!"

But for some reason, no matter how hard they chased, the two fleeing figures in front always maintained a distance from them that was neither far nor close.

"Hey?"

After running out of the woods, Suo Cai Ling looked at the Crow Leader and the Dark Crows circling around the woods behind him with a puzzled look on his face. Why were these guys circling in circles? Did they get lost in their own home?

"Crow Chief and Murkrow are both very smart elves. Such a simple illusion won't fool them for long. Let's go!" It was naturally Zoroark's fault that Crow Chief and the others had been circling in the woods.

By the time the Crow Chief finally realized that he had been deceived and rushed out of the woods with his brothers in a straight line, the thieves were no longer in sight.

Fang Ci couldn't see the frustrated look on the Crow Chief and the Dark Crows' faces, but he could roughly imagine it. However, compared to their ugly appearance, Fang Ci was obviously more concerned about something else.

"Suo Cailing, since Aunt Xiaohe entrusted you to me, we are now companions. Next time if you have anything, you must discuss it with us and never run out alone like you did today, okay?"

Looking at the intact Suo Cai Ling, Fang Ci patted his chest with lingering fear. He had searched for Suo Cai Ling in Yuanmo Town and nearby areas for a long time today but couldn't find her. If a dark crow holding a half spoon in its mouth hadn't happened to fly past him and reminded him of a possibility, he wouldn't have followed the dark crow here with the mentality of giving it a try.
