As a trainer, he has the rain trait

Chapter 98: Battle for a bowl of noodles

After bidding farewell to Qi Yu, Zhi Lin came to the neighboring mountain and river area.

Zhilin strolled along the streets of the Shanhe area, admiring its unique characteristics.

Temples with flying eaves and brackets, red walls and yellow tiles, ancient courtyards, and blue-gray brick walls.

The sound of opera can be heard from the streets and alleys, and the shops are filled with exquisite paper-cuts and lifelike dough figurines.

Zhilin shuttled through the streets and alleys, immersed in the unique charm of this mountainous area, feeling the grandeur and majesty of the mountainous architecture and the enthusiasm and unrestrainedness of the mountainous people.

Continue walking and pass an ancient stone bridge.

A stone bridge spanned the clear river, its slabs polished by time to a smooth jade-like finish. Zhilin held onto the railing, overlooking the gurgling water below, where fish glided merrily. Willows swayed on either side of the bridge, their tender green branches swaying in the breeze.

Through the gaps in the willow branches, an antique noodle shop caught his attention.

After asking others, I learned that this noodle shop has a long history and is said to have been passed down for a hundred years. It is extremely famous in this area.

The entrance of the noodle shop was crowded with people. Zhilin went forward curiously and found that the noodle shop was holding an event: as long as you can win a Pokémon battle on the arena set up by the noodle shop, you can taste a bowl of their signature knife-cut noodles for free.

Zhilin's heart moved, and he thought of the croaking bubble frog that had just passed its neonatal period.

Although the frog is still young, it can already fight, so this is a good opportunity to practice.

He observed the event briefly and found no strong opponents, so he signed up for the event.

After a while, it was his turn to go on stage. Zhilin walked onto the stage confidently with the croaking frog.

Opposite him was a trainer who looked experienced, with a calm look in his eyes and a confident smile on his lips. He sent out a Geodude with considerable strength.

Geodude stood on the ring. His round body looked clumsy, but it actually contained great power.

Zhilin looked at the croaking frog in front of him, full of fighting spirit, and said with a smile, "Keep going!"

"Quack!"

'You're guaranteed to win!'

Geodude launched the first attack, charging towards Froggy with a dash. Though slow, each step carried momentum.

Geodude charged forward, waving his sturdy arms. His arms swept through the air, creating a gust of wind, in an attempt to intimidate Froggy.

The audience gathered around the ring, their eyes fixed on the action, excitement on their faces, and cheers could be heard from the crowd from time to time.

"Wow, Geodude looks so powerful!" A little boy jumped up excitedly, his eyes shining with excitement.

"Froggy has four times the resistance, and Geodude has a hard time resisting it." An old man next to him frowned slightly and gave scientific knowledge to his grandson.

The croaking frog jumped away quickly, its small body very agile.

Geodude's attack missed, and a hint of impatience flashed in his eyes. He became even more ferocious and accelerated again to rush towards Froggy.

Frog was not afraid at all. It used its agility to dodge left and right on the ring, making Geodude's attack miss again.

The audience was attracted by the nimble movements of the croaking frog and exclaimed in admiration.

"This croaking frog is so amazing, it moves so fast!" A young girl couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"Yeah, it looks like this game is going to be interesting." The boy next to her nodded in agreement.

After two failed attacks, Geodude got a little angry. Its trainer couldn't help but say, "Don't worry, just polish the rock after it becomes round!"

Zhilin nodded. It was a very good response, but it was a pity that I was four times more restrained.

"Quack Bubble Frog, water gun!" Zhilin shouted.

Froggy took a deep breath and blew out a stream of water, rushing towards Geodude with a roar.

As soon as Geodude released his round shape, he couldn't dodge in time and was hit by the water gun, forcing him to take a few steps back.

After being hit by the water gun, Geodude did not give up and rushed towards Froggy again, preparing to launch a final attack.

Zhilin shouted, "Quack Frog, use Shadow Clone!"

Frog instantly transformed into multiple clones, surrounding Geodude. Geodude was stunned, not knowing which one was the real Frog.

Just as Geodude hesitated, Froggy's clones attacked simultaneously, spraying water guns one after another, knocking Geodude dizzy.

It tried to fight back, but didn't know where to attack.

At this time, Froggy's real body quietly circled behind Geodude.

The opposing trainer finally recognized the real body and shouted, "Georock, behind you!"

But it was too late. Frog suddenly summoned a massive torrent of water that rushed towards Geodude like a tsunami. Overwhelmed by the powerful attack, Geodude collapsed on the stage, unable to withstand it any longer.

The audience burst into warm applause and cheers, applauding Zhilin and Guagua Bubble Frog for their wonderful performance.

The little boy at the beginning was excited, "Froggy is so powerful! Geodude has no way to deal with it!"

The old man smiled and patted his head. "That's a Surf move. It's an excellent Pokémon!"

Zhilin looked at the frog that was trying to take credit for himself and said with a smile, "That's great!"

The noodle shop owner walked towards Zhilin with a smile and handed him a note with a seal on it. "You're already a champion, and you still come here to bully others."

Zhilin, who was recognized, chuckled awkwardly, "I'm just sending my newly captured Pokémon out for practice. I'm not bullying anyone."

The boss laughed and pointed at the noodle shop, "Just give this note to the cashier!"

Zhilin nodded and said thank you, then walked into the noodle shop with the quack frog, handed the note to the cashier, and paid for a bowl of the same knife-cut noodles himself.

As the hero, the Bubble Frog also got to have a portion, but unfortunately the noodle shop was not big, so it was not convenient to let the Electric Dragons come out to try it.

The kitchen is open, and Zhilin watched the chef making knife-cut noodles with great interest.

The noodle shop chef washed his hands and began his performance.

He first took out a piece of dough that had been kneaded long ago from the dough jar, placed the soft and elastic dough on the chopping board, and gently pressed it with his hands to make it into a flat circle.

Then, the chef held the special noodle knife tightly in both hands, bent down slightly, and his eyes were focused and steady.

I saw him gently touch the blade to the dough, then with a flick of his wrist, a piece of dough as thin as a cicada's wing jumped into the pot as lightly as a silver fish. His movements were smooth and seamless.

The noodles roll in the boiling water and slowly cook through, keeping their chewy texture.

When the noodles are cooked to perfection, the chef quickly takes them out and places them in a prepared large bowl.

Then, he scooped a large spoonful of the rich meat sauce and poured it over the noodles. In an instant, the noodles seemed to be given life, blooming with attractive brilliance in the bowl.

Then, the chef made another bowl of knife-cut noodles using the same method and brought these two bowls of carefully prepared knife-cut noodles to Zhilin.

Zhilin looked at the bowl of steaming, fragrant noodles in front of him, exchanged a glance with Gua Ga Bubble Frog, and began to taste it.

The noodles are springy and smooth, each one full of springiness. A gentle bite reveals a firmness and chewiness. The rich and delicious marinade blends perfectly with the aroma of the seasoning, spreading throughout your mouth and leaving you with an endless aftertaste.

Zhilin sat at the table, happily savoring the hard-earned delicacy. Just as he was enjoying his meal, a voice reached his ears.

"Uncle, give me a bowl of ti jian!"
