Chapter 236 The Lights Are Bright and the Evening Breeze Is Gentle
The sun was setting slowly, and the night was sultry, and the town named Beili was lit up with lights, and the voices were full of people, with a misty halo in the night.
crunching———
A carriage slowly stopped in front of the town gate, attracting the attention of the guards...
There are not many people who can afford a frame, and this frame is not only a bit weird in structure, but there is no one or Pokémon pulling the cart... This is eye-catching.
Just as the guards were waiting in full force, they saw the curtains of the car lightly lifted, and a handsome young man in white stepped off the frame and waved to the guards to signal that he was not hostile.
The guard was slightly taken aback, his appearance and demeanor were not ordinary, could it be that the visitor was a prince or noble from which region?
Although the transportation in this era is inconvenient, there are definitely not a few travelers, so it is not impossible to meet some noble children traveling... just guards? Could it be that this noble young master sneaked out?
When the guards were still trying to figure out the identity of the visitor, they saw that the young man in white had already stepped forward and asked loudly, "Is there a place to store a carriage?"
The guards came back to their senses and hurried forward a few steps. Because of the appearance and temperament of the young man in white, he couldn't help but speak with a bit of respect. "You can just drive into the town. There is a special place to store the frame inside."
Hearing this, Xu Qiansu couldn't help sighing that although the Xicui area was dangerous, it was relatively convenient for travel. It was also an ancient time, but in the previous life, he needed a guide to enter the city.
A guard stepped forward to lead the way, Xu Qiansu waved slightly, and the frame automatically followed behind the guard.
"...This is?" Another guard looked at Xu Qiansu.
"I have a Pokémon with superpowers." Xu Qiansu explained with a slight smile.
Because Beili Town is the junction of Red Lotus Wetland and Qunqing Coast, it is a transportation hub, and the flow of people is not small. Naturally, items such as elf balls are also spread here. It may not be as good as Zhuqing Village, but Compared with Qunqing Town, which is somewhat closed, it is undoubtedly much more enlightened in terms of Pokémon, so there is no need to be too taboo about the existence of Pokémon... Naturally, the economy is also much more prosperous.
Before Xu Qiansu came here, he had already grasped this level of information.
The guard couldn't help showing a bit of envy when he heard the words... Even though Pokémon battles are not very popular in the Xicui area, the power and rogue of super power Pokémon are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Therefore, he looked at Xu Qiansu with some respect from the bottom of his heart.
The frame passed Xu Qiansu and drove into the town... Xu Qiansu nodded slightly to the guards, and followed the frame into Beili Town.
Xu Qiansu will go to Zhuqing Village, but it is impossible to ignore it and drive there directly. Along the way, he meets towns that need supplies, and Cattleya needs materials to make a simple manual charger...Xu Qiansu also needs to inquire carefully about the whereabouts of Kirulian.
...
Stepping into the town gate, Xu Qiansu's first impression was that it was lively.
The ancients didn't have any entertainment activities. Every night, they either slept honestly or...not honestly.
But Beili Town is different. There are large stalls and hawkers all over the streets in Sifang. Even though it is already night, there are still people coming and going.
The most important thing is that passers-by on the side of the road are also walking through the streets with their Pokémon... If it weren't for the different architectural styles and clothing, Xu Qiansu would have doubted whether he had come to the modern age...
"Young Master, is this your first time in Beili Town?" the guard who was leading the way turned his head to talk.
Xu Qiansu nodded slightly and asked, "What holiday is there tonight?"
The guard shook his head and laughed softly, "That's not true, Beili Town doesn't say it's like this every night, but there are ten days in a month that are as lively as today...Since it's the first time for you to come here, you should have a good time tonight Come on, Beili Town, as a place where all directions gather, is far more prosperous than the surrounding villages and towns... It's time to replace the town with a city."
Xu Qiansu smiled gently, and asked again: "Is there a place for storytelling here?"
"Storytelling? What is that?" the guard asked curiously.
"It's where stories are told."
"Oh, you go wandering around in the street, in the past restaurants and teahouses, there are basically people making up some anecdotes."
Hearing this, Xu Qiansu stopped talking too much, and only answered briefly when the guards asked him... He had a cold temperament, but he only seemed to talk too much in front of Ma Li.
After walking to the place where the frame was stored, Xu Qiansu stuffed some money as a token of gratitude, then boarded the frame, hugged Sorolla in one hand, turned his head to look at Cattleya, and said with a smile: "Do you want to remove the ghost?" , stroll here?"
Cattleya, who was meditating, opened her eyes and raised her eyebrows slightly, "You are not in a hurry at all, and you still have leisure time to play?"
"Miss Mary's biggest advantage is that apart from her cuteness, she can keep calm when encountering any situation... So I have gradually learned this along the way." Xu Qiansu shook her head and said with a chuckle.
Of course Xu Qiansu didn't want to play, he just took this opportunity to inquire about Kirulian's information and buy some daily necessities by the way.
"Nonsense, I was so angry that I crushed the tree fruit before."
"It seems that what I have learned is not to keep calm, but to quickly release unnecessary negative emotions..." Xu Qiansu followed Cattleya's words naturally, "Once upon a time, there were a few underground people who had survived for thousands of years. When encountering unfavorable situations, I will quickly calm down by laughing or crying..."
"Underground people with unknown meaning." Cattleya shook her head lightly, then stood up and stepped on the wooden planks... This proves that she has materialized, that is, she can be seen and touched by humans... Although until now Xu Qiansu I can't figure out what the reason is, but since Cattleya has always been a very mysterious woman, Xu Qiansu didn't bother to delve into it.
The two lifted the curtain and stepped off the frame.
Xu Qiansu nodded slightly to the guards standing near the frame, and then walked towards the street with Soraya in his arms.
Cattleya followed beside him, walking slowly step by step, as if recalling the feeling of walking... Walking is indeed a relatively unfamiliar experience for Cattleya, after all, she has long been used to flying instead of walking.
The guard's eyes couldn't help following Cattleya, and a calm voice came from next to his ear, "Be careful of your eyeballs."
The voice was soft, lazy yet elegant, but upon hearing these words, the guard felt like falling into a cellar of ice, and quickly looked away, looking at his nose, his nose, and his heart, thinking to himself what is the origin of this pair of travelers? It's just that one looks better than the other, why do they still have such inexplicable strange abilities?
Xu Qiansu glanced at Cattleya, and said with a smile: "With Miss Cattleya's appearance, it's human instinct to want to take a few more glances...why scare him like this?"
"He's been staring at me, aren't you angry?" Cattleya asked dissatisfiedly without raising her eyelids.
"If it was Miss Mary, I would probably be angry."
"You did it on purpose?" Cattleya asked Xu Qiansu sideways.
Xu Qiansu withdrew his gaze, looked down at Liuwei who was following him on catwalks, and asked softly, "There are so many vendors on the street...what do you want to eat?"
"Huh?" Liuwei said that I don't want to eat any so-called snacks, I just want you to throw Soraya down and hug me.
Liuwei didn't want to eat it, but the rattan snake that had been lying on Xu Qiansu's shoulder pointed to a store that seemed to sell octopus balls, saying that she wanted to eat this.
Xu Qiansu walked over, while Cattleya looked at him with her hands behind her back.
Wearing white clothes, the handsome young man with a dusty temperament is negotiating with the boss for a snack, but his words and deeds are very serious... a bit like a child.
Cattleya shook her head and laughed, and then looked away, looking at the busy street... Cattleya has never been to such a lively but noisy place.
Zhulan went there often, and thought about taking Cattleya to play...but Cattleya prefers to sleep rather than play, and because of her identity and temperament, she gives up every time.
"Miss Cattleya, try it?"
In a daze, Xu Qiansu had already handed over a box of steaming small balls.
Cattleya blinked. She had never eaten this kind of street food, so she hesitated for a while before stretching out her small hand to take it.
Xu Qiansu looked away, and immediately tied a small ball with a bamboo stick and fed it to Soroya, "Is it delicious?"
"Oh~"
Xu Qiansu chuckled, fed it to Liuwei and the rattan snake, and then walked forward.
Cattleya followed, and the two walked on the street not far apart, one in front of the other, as if they were no different from the young men and women who came and went walking together.
Cattleya's appearance is extremely outstanding, and her temperament is even more impressive. Needless to say, Xu Qiansu, the two of them walked on the street and naturally attracted the attention of many people, but no one came to talk to them ignorantly.
Cattleya took small bites of some hot balls...the taste wasn't bad, but that's all.
After she ate it once, she wouldn't eat it again.
Xu Qiansu suddenly stopped, and Cattleya also stopped and looked up, but Xu Qiansu turned his head to look at a teahouse.
Cattleya followed Xu Qiansu's line of sight, and it turned out that there was an old gentleman who was spitting and telling some meaningless stories in Cattleya's opinion.
What to fight against the entire ferocious Pokémon group with one's own strength, save the village, or bravely enter the dragon's lake and tiger's lair for an elf egg... The story is novel and exaggerated, but for Cattleya, she can do all of these To, so naturally feel bored.
But Zoroya's eyes were shining, he was concentrating, and he listened very seriously... It seemed that he was very interested in these things.
Xu Qiansu stopped and listened for a while, and then went up to ask those guests if they had heard the story of a different-colored Kirulian... After a while, she walked out of the teahouse, shook her head slightly at Cattleya, and then smiled, " let's go."
Cattleya nodded slightly, and the two of them walked silently on the bustling streets without saying much.
Xu Qiansu stopped and walked, asking people around her for news about Kirulian from time to time... but rarely talked to Cattleya.
Cattleya was not angry, but just silently watched Xu Qiansu's every move.
While walking, she saw Xu Qiansu suddenly turned her head and asked, "Miss Cattleya rarely goes out on the street like this?"
"Although I have a noble status, I am not a lady with no life experience." Cattleya replied, then paused, and then said: "But as far as I can remember, I was locked behind a green wall until I met When I go to Zhulan, I have my own Pokémon, and when I have the strength, I will have the opportunity to go out for a walk... But then I will not be the age to be interested in this."
Cattleya never mentioned her past experience to Xu Qiansu, so Xu Qiansu raised her brows slightly, and then said with a smile: "You are only twenty years old, but you look like a noble lady in your thirties and forties."
"Noble lady?" Cattleya took a look at Xu Qiansu, and said calmly: "They seem to live a good life, but they need to pay attention to their manners at all times. If they hang out all day long, they will only cause trouble for themselves... Although I don't need to care about this aspect , but about the same."
"Huh?" Xu Qiansu pursed her lips and pondered for a moment, and then said: "It seems that you left a bad impression on the world before, and going out casually will only cause panic."
The rampant mental power is equivalent to an unstable time bomb. No one dares to bet that Cattleya can completely control it, plus mind reading... Therefore, although Cattleya is one of the most powerful superpowers in this world, she is also one of the most powerful people in the world. The Four Heavenly Kings, but in the eyes of the world, they are still the objects that they are afraid to avoid.
Previously, Cattleya's only friend was Zhulan. Apart from her personality, there may be some reasons for this.
Cattleya was already used to Xu Qiansu's keen observation and judgment, so she only gave a slight 'hmm' before saying, "If they are afraid of me, they should be afraid of me. I don't care about these things myself."
Xu Qiansu smiled, didn't say much, then looked at the many shops on the side, was silent for a moment, then turned to look at Cattleya, pointed to a small shop, and asked, "Are you hungry? Eat more?"
Cattleya turned her head to look, but saw an ordinary shop covered with curtains and only a row of vertical stools were exposed. Warm yellow lights came out from the curtain along with the curling heat, mixed There was a soft sound of 'Zi Zi Zi'.
Oden... It is common in the Kanto and Johto areas in this world, but it is also found in the Xisui area, and it is not known which area it originated from.
Cattleya frowned slightly. She instinctively resisted this kind of small shop, not because she thought it tasted bad, but because it was not clean and the decoration was simple. Generally speaking, she would only attract everyone's attention when she went there, and she couldn't concentrate on eating at all.
But she took a look at Xu Qiansu, then nodded slightly, but did not refuse.
Xu Qiansu smiled, led the Pokémon to walk, opened the curtain, sat down on the bench, put Zoroya, Six Tails and Rattan Snake on the bench beside him, and ordered three servings Oden, radish, potato, Chikuwa, fish balls, lucky eggs, etc. come one each.
Cattleya lifted the curtain, and the warm yellow light that caught her eyes caused her to subconsciously frown. Then she supported the long skirt and sat down beside Xu Qiansu, with her blond hair that reached her feet hanging down behind her.
There were no customers in the shop, only them.
The boss was a silent middle-aged man. He glanced at Xu Qiansu, Cattleya and all the Pokémon, then looked away, silently preparing for Oden, and after a while, he placed them in front of Xu Qiansu and the others one by one.
Soroya had never eaten such a thing before, so he couldn't wait to bite down on it.
"Take a few more glasses." Xu Qiansu groped Roja's little head, then removed the flagon from his waist, looked at Cattleya, "Drink?"
Cattleya nodded lightly indifferently.
"Boo chirp~" Fujiteng Snake nodded her toes, stretched out her small hand, and waited for Xu Qiansu to pour her a full glass before narrowing her big wine-red eyes cutely.
Xu Qiansu took a bite of the soft boiled radish, took another sip of wine, and ate in silence without saying a word.
Cattleya had no appetite, so she propped her face sideways and looked at the bustling crowd and the brightly lit streets through the curling heat.
After watching alone for a while, she withdrew her gaze, looked at Xu Qiansu, and said, "I will buy some copper wires, high-quality wood and other materials later, and I will be able to make a charger...you can have unlimited sex with your horse." Miss Li spoke freely."
Xu Qiansu took another sip of wine before putting down the glass, with a gentle smile, "Fortunately, Miss Cattleya is here."
"En." Cattleya responded casually, playing with the wine glass casually with her white and tender hands, without further words.
Zizizi————
The hot oden soup makes a soft sound, and the aroma keeps reverberating from the tip of the nose.
But I heard a couple of young men and women walking into the shop chatting and laughing, and sat down on the vertical stools.
It appears to be a couple.
But even though they are lovers, they don't have any promiscuous behavior, and there is a sense of harmony and love that is "beginning in love and ending in courtesy".
Cattleya withdrew her gaze, and immediately looked at Xu Qiansu, but suddenly realized that although Xu Qiansu was full of lies and said a lot of love to Mary, he never seemed to respond positively...
So she asked directly, "You like Mary?"
Xu Qiansu glanced at Cattleya suspiciously, feeling a little inexplicable, but then said: "Miss Cattleya just meant that the world is afraid of you... But currently in Xicui area, no one knows our identity, and we will You can come and visit often.”
Still no direct answer, but Cattleya can read minds, so it doesn't matter if Xu Qiansu answers or not.
Feeling a little bored, she picked up the wine glass and sipped it lightly.
Xu Qiansu smiled, and immediately picked up a piece of potato and fed it to Soraya.
Then he said: "When we get back, let's eat oden... just to see how the taste has changed after such a long time."
Cattleya was slightly taken aback, and remained silent for a while, before saying, "Have you ever eaten?"
"No."
"I mean your world."
Xu Qiansu glanced at Cattleya, but didn't care, smiled lightly, and said, "I had better choices at that time... hot pot, spicy hot pot, etc., so I didn't try this."
"I haven't eaten."
"I'll do it for you next time."
Cattleya glanced at Xu Qiansu again, then picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of radish, put it in her lips, and began to chew slowly.
Xu Qiansu smiled lightly and said nothing more.
Zizizi——————
The hot oden soup still makes a soft sound, and the aroma keeps echoing from the tip of the nose. The difference is that this time there is a couple of young men and women chatting and laughing next to the ears.
Although it has been said, I want to emphasize it again.
Xu Qiansu often talks about love, but never responds to anything positively, not because he is scumbag, but because the love story I wrote focuses on the sense of atmosphere and implicit beauty.
I can't even write plots such as heroes saving the beauty.
Because it is boring and boring, and the heroine in my novel will not be captured because of that kind of plot.
So if I look dizzy and don't know what's going on, then I have a problem with my writing skills.
