I got the Pokémon

Xia You and the others also entered the crowd, and moved forward slowly together with these tourists.

There are two rows of stalls lined up on the street, selling all kinds of delicious snacks and other gadgets. Seeing that Xiaozhi was a little moved, Xia You bought a few snacks to share with everyone.

And when Xiaoxia stopped in front of a jewelry booth, but left silently, Xia You went to the booth, carefully selected, bought a hairpin, and gave it to Xiaoxia.

Xiaoxia had a smile on her face. Although she didn't say much, she could tell from her expression that she liked this gift very much.

This festival, like previous years, was very lively. They walked forward for a while, and even saw a woman dressed up, dancing an exotic dance under the music and people's cheers.

However, unlike the relaxed Xia You and the other three, Xiao Gang has no intention of playing at this time. He bows his head and follows behind with a look of lovesickness on his face. Obviously, he still misses the woman on the pier, and even whispers in his mouth. wearing something.

"Please wait!"

An old but full of spirit voice suddenly sounded behind several people.

Xia You turned around and found that it was an old woman with white hair, less than one meter tall, holding a cane and wearing a purple robe.

This old lady has a big mouth and very dry skin, especially her pair of eyes, which look quite sharp.

Xiao Gang was still immersed in the woman's beauty at first, but when he turned his head, he was startled by the old woman's appearance, caught off guard, and fell to the ground.

"Whoa! There's a...a shriveled old kappa!"

"Who is the Kappa!?" The old woman scolded angrily, then glanced back and forth between Xia You and Xiao Gang, and said mysteriously, "Listen, you must be careful of beautiful women! , otherwise today will be unlucky!"

"What are you talking about!" Xiaoxia pursed her mouth, took a quick look at Xia You, and said a little coyly, "How could I make him unlucky!"

"Fool!" cried the old woman, "I'm talking about beautiful women, not a brat like you!"

"What!? You said I'm a little girl!" Xiaoxia frowned instantly, obviously these words hit her sore spot.

On the other side, after hearing the old woman's advice, Xiao Gang was thoughtful, only Xia You, who knew that she was actually a fake body transformed by ghosts, was just staring at them at this time, so he just laughed it off. She didn't pay much attention to her words.

But Xiaoxia didn't want such a rare trip to the festival to be disturbed by this old woman.

"What nonsense! Well, let's not talk to her anymore, let's leave quickly."

Saying that, she pushed Xia You's back with one hand, and held Xiao Gang's ear with the other, and turned around to leave here.

The end of this festival is a shrine at the end of the town.

When Xia You and the others came to the shrine with the crowd, they saw an old priest who rang the bell and drum on the hour.

"Everyone be quiet, the treasures of the Girl Shrine are about to be exhibited now!"

Beside the old priest, there is still a picture scroll, but the picture scroll is covered by white cloth at this time, making it impossible to see what is painted.

People surrounded the shrine, and the old priest continued: "This painting is a secret treasure that has been handed down from the shrine for girls since 2000 years ago. It will be exhibited only once a year during the summer festival. Next, All guests are invited to watch carefully!"

As he spoke, he tore off the white cloth and displayed the scroll completely in front of everyone.

In the picture, there is a full-body portrait of a woman, with her eyes looking forward and her hands on her chest, as if she is praying.

Although this painting is only black and white, without other colors, it still makes people feel the beauty of the woman and the strong sadness.

On the side, Xiao Gang was very surprised, because the beautiful woman in the portrait was actually the woman in white skirt he saw when he was at the pier at noon!

The old priest echoed in people's ears like a narration: "2000 years ago, there was a young couple who loved each other very much, but because of the war, the man had to be drafted into the army, and went to sea with the army to fight, and before leaving , he made a promise that after the war was won, he would return in triumph.

In this way, the woman has been waiting for many years, but in the end, she did not wait for the return of the man. The endless waiting turned her into a rock and stood on the cliff. Until now, she has been waiting for him man. "

This is indeed a sad legend, and people can't help feeling depressed after hearing it.

At this time, Xiao Gang, as if possessed by a demon, suddenly asked: "Then, where is that rock now!?"

"Oh?" The old priest was taken aback, "Don't you know Maiden Rock?"

……

Night covered the land.

On the cliff by the sea, a wooden house was built here alone.

When Xia You walked up the cliff from the rugged mountain road and walked around the wooden house, they saw a stone statue of a woman sitting on a cliff offshore.

I don't know how many years have passed, but the stone statue seems to have been integrated with the cliff.

The waves beat on the reef, and in the distance, there are thousands of lights in Maiden Gorge Town. Even though it is far away from the town, you can still faintly hear the festive and joyful sounds of the celebration coming from there.

And here, like the legend, it seems to be full of silence.

Looking at the girl's rock, Xiaoxia whispered: "You said, is this rock really made by that woman?"

"Who knows." Xia You shook his head, "At least I don't see any traces of artificial carving."

It was already ten o'clock at night, and the sky suddenly covered the moon with dark clouds, and a gust of wind blew past, bringing a refreshing coolness.

Relying on intuition, perhaps because he felt that something was about to happen, Xia You took out two elf balls, and with the flashing red light, Charmander and Leib appeared at his feet.

The flames on the tail of the little charmander, and the electric current that flashed through Leib's body from time to time, at this moment, not only illuminated the surroundings, but also reassured him.

"There's nothing to see here, let's go back to the town."

Compared with the bustling streets, Xiaoxia naturally didn't want to stay here any longer, but she didn't expect that when she turned around, she saw the door of the hut behind her, which was slowly opening.

creak...

At first, she thought the door was blown open by the wind, but in the next second, a blurry figure radiating light suddenly floated out from inside.

"Ah! It's a ghost!!"
