Chapter 101 Brave Xiaoqing
Xiaoqing asked timidly.
"Um..., are we going to climb this slope? Haven't you seen the rocks rolling down all over the ground?"
Xiaozhi also felt a little embarrassed, but still said.
"Having said that, but... we can't help but look for that secret spice, right? It's rare that we come here by accident, so let's collect that spice along the way!"
"But……"
Looking at Xiaoqing who was in trouble, Pipa tried to persuade her.
"Yes, Xiaoqing's worries are not unreasonable. After all, the Pokémon that is the treasure owner this time has the habit of throwing big rocks from the air for entertainment.
"Compared with the previous Pokémon Crab and Turtle, they still like to live in groups and have fun together. A single Stonebird can only throw down one falling stone, but a group of Pokémon can only drop one falling stone. The Stone Bird Clan is causing a rain of rocks, which is really difficult to deal with."
Xiaoqing also realized that her timid words were indeed inappropriate, and she was about to say something.
Piper continued.
"Then this time, Xiaoqing will stay behind him far away from the slope and wait for Xiaozhi and I to bring back the secret seasoning before we start the trip."
After saying that, Xiaoqing was escorted by Xiaozhi and Pipa, and headed to a place behind him, where the vegetation was more lush than the slope. It was very cold at high places. Like the slope, there were no huge trees here, but there were a few Huge white fan for wind power generation.
Xiaoqing was a little uneasy along the way, wondering if it was inappropriate for her to do this. After all, she was a traveling companion, so she could avoid participating because she was afraid...
After a while, they approached the area where the windmill was built. At first they didn't think the fan was that huge from a distance, but only after they got closer did they realize how huge the windmill was. And there are dozens of such huge electric windmills here, which makes people admire the infrastructure construction capabilities of the Padian people.
Under the fan truck, a man in maintenance worker's clothes walked out of the door of the windmill base. He looked at Xiaozhi and the others and waved warmly to say hello.
"Are the boys and girls over there coming here to travel? But they are only allowed to climb to the highest position of the windmill. Above that is the territory of those stonebirds who like to throw stones at high altitudes..."
After Xiaozhi and the others saw each other's warm greetings, they also greeted each other and chatted.
"...What's wrong, uncle? Are you the maintenance worker of the windmill? Why don't you let us go higher?"
The other party straightened the helmet on his head. He was obviously busy with his work. After making a slight adjustment, he continued to speak to Xiaozhi and the others.
"I am a maintenance worker at the wind power generation unit of the Padia Union. I am the most familiar person with this West District 11! Look at the windmill with the number next to us. They are The numbers are arranged from low altitude to gradually high altitude..."
As he spoke, the maintenance man pointed in the direction of a slope at a corner in the distance and continued.
"Everyone knows that the higher the altitude, the stronger the wind. As for why the Alliance no longer builds windmills on the slopes? That's because it is already the territory of the stonebirds that lived there before humans. They are some like A Pokémon that throws down rocks..."
Facing the maintenance uncle's talk, Xiaozhi and the others felt a little impatient. After all, they came up on the side path and entered the territory by mistake... Therefore, they are very aware of the power of the stone bird. of.
Xiaozhi interrupted the other party and said.
"Sorry, uncle, although we also know how dangerous that slope is, we still have reasons to go there. I hope you can agree to our request to go there."
Faced with Xiaozhi's sincere request and inquiry, the other party looked embarrassed and replied.
"Well, I think you may have made a mistake... I am just a maintenance worker of the windmill, not the security officer of this area. I have no right to interfere with where you want to go. The Padian League has no regulations prohibiting people from climbing the slopes. There are also a few extreme enthusiasts who regard going up there as a test for themselves...but so far no one has succeeded, I am just kindly reminding you."
Hearing this, Xiaozhi and the others breathed a sigh of relief, and Xiaozhi continued.
"Huh..., it's okay if we don't give in, because we are really determined to get there."
Seeing Xiaozhi's determined expression and firm words, the maintenance uncle also sighed and said.
"Well, then I can only help you with good luck and be the first one to get there."
After talking to the maintenance uncle, Xiaozhi and Pipa said a short farewell to Xiaoqing.
"Xiao Qing, I heard that uncle said that the area below Windmill No. 11 is an area that will not be affected by falling rocks on the slope. Just wait here. Before we come back, you must not Set foot above the windmill alone."
Xiao Qing didn't know what to say for a moment. After all, she was too scared. If she followed Xiao Zhi and Pipa in this state, it would only cause trouble. Therefore, Xiaoqing said nothing and just nodded lightly.
Looking at the distant backs of Xiaozhi and Pipa, and then looking at the eyes of Xinye Miao beside them, with some expectations, hoping to keep up with Xiaozhi and Pipa, Xiaoqing was a little hesitant, but was afraid of the unknown adventure. It also suppressed her desire to explore...
Step by step, he approached the territory of the lower stone birds. Looking at the flock of lower stone birds hovering above his head, Xiaozhi asked Pipa who was standing aside.
"How should we get up that slope?"
"Hmm... I see that there is a lack of tall vegetation around the tree canopy that can be used for cover. Without cover, I think we can only force our way in!"
Xiaozhi nodded and said.
"Yes, actually I think so too, then let's climb up the slope in one go!"
After Xiaozhi finished speaking, he said to Pikachu and Minifu next to him.
"Pikachu, Minifu, let's go up! Intercept all the rocks thrown by the stone birds one by one!"
"Pika! Fume!"
Pikachu and the others responded with shouts, and Pipa on the side also sent out his own hot baby.
"Hot babe, I need your help, come with us to the top!"
"Spicy!"
After all of them reached an agreement, they rushed towards the slope like a sprint.
There was no shelter on the slope, and Xiaozhi and the others' upward movements were quickly discovered by the stone birds hovering above their heads. After a while, the rocks fell like raindrops...
"Pikachu, use the grid!"
Pikachu swung its tail out, and an electric grid was thrown out, setting a "barrier" above Xiaozhi and the others, trapping the many falling rocks that fell from the sky.
"Now, Minifu! Use the energy ball!"
"Hot baby, use the seed machine gun!"
As Pikachu attacked with the power grid, it caught all the falling rocks attacking from the sky one by one. As the falling rocks were collected and gathered towards the center of the power grid, they sank down under the action of gravity.
Just when the power grid was about to be crushed by falling rocks, Mini Fu's energy ball attack and Hot Baby's seed machine gun attack arrived in time, reducing the load on the power grid.
It's like a bag-like power grid. After being attacked by two Pokémon, the falling rocks inside were broken into pieces. As the power grid regained its elasticity, the impact caused an explosion, knocking all the rock-falling attacks of the stone bird back into the air. .
Faced with the splash of gravel flying from the ground, the flock of stone birds in the air also experienced the pain of being attacked by falling rocks, and they fled in all directions, wailing in their mouths.
"Yeah! Yeah!"
At the lower half of the slope, under the No. 11 windmill, Xiaoqing and Xinye Miao were quietly waiting for Xiaozhi and the others' triumph, and the maintenance uncle who was busy on the side spoke to them.
"What's the matter, aren't you going to go with your two companions?"
Xiaoqing smiled awkwardly and continued.
"Uh... um... I'm afraid of being attacked by those stone birds, so..."
The maintenance uncle smiled and continued.
"Well, it doesn't matter. You can go if you want to, or you can not go. Going is a yearning for adventure and the experience of one's abilities; not going is a reverence for nature and respect for Pokémon's territory. So, follow your heart. idea……"
Just when Xiao Qing and the maintenance uncle were chatting, bursts of explosions were heard on the slope in the distance. The sound was so shocking that even the direction of Xiao Qing and the others were affected by the air waves of the explosion, and a breeze hit them. Come.
Xiaoqing was so worried that she jumped down from the guardrail where she was sitting under the windmill and shouted.
"Ash, Piper! What happened there?"
The maintenance uncle looked in that direction and said.
"It should be a battle with those stone birds. Many trainers have gone there for special training before, as a test for themselves and their Pokémon..."
Listening to the sound of battles coming from the slope in the distance, Xiao Qing could not help but become a little worried. Thinking of all the previous adventures with Xiao Zhi and the others, her eyes were empty and she was a little dazed...
Suddenly, Xinye Miao called out to Xiaoqing.
"Miluo! Miluo!"
Only then did Xiao Qing wake up from her daze.
The maintenance uncle on the side continued.
"I hope those two teenagers will be okay... But there are more people, and the field of view that can be seen is wider when we work together, and we can respond to emergencies more freely..."
Xiaoqing listened silently to what the maintenance uncle said, and suddenly her eyes became firm and she shouted.
"Xinye Miao, let's go help Xiaozhi and Pipa!"
As he spoke, Xiaoqing and Xinye Miao ran quickly in the direction where they were...
Watching Xiaoqing and Xinye Miao leave, the maintenance uncle smiled behind him and continued.
"That's right, go! Face the unknown fears and upcoming dangers, and face them bravely! The journey is also very important for building inner bravery."
"Boom, boom, boom..."
The huge falling rocks rolled down the slope quickly, disturbing Xiaozhi and Piper, who were running around. Xiaozhi shouted excitedly.
"Such a large rock rolled down the slope. This size is not comparable to the rockfall attacks of the previous stone bird flocks. It is too exaggerated!"
"Pika! Fume!"
As Xiaozhi said that, he ran towards the left, Pikachu and Minifudded towards the right, and a huge boulder rushed through them...
Piper also said loudly.
"Everyone should pay attention! Rolling stones of these sizes were obviously thrown by the stone bird under the treasure master. I originally thought that climbing up this slope to the top of the mountain was not far from victory... I didn't find it at the beginning. The flock of normal-sized stone birds is just the appetizer, and the huge rolling stones thrown by the treasure master’s stone birds behind are the main course!”
"Spicy..."
While Pipa was talking, a huge rolling stone rolled towards Pipa and Rela Wa. Fortunately, although the slope had been mixed with accumulated rolling stones and pressed into a deep concave shape toward the ground, it was good that The rolling stones are jumping, and the ground is not smooth. When the huge rolling stone was about to hit Pipa and Hota, it was hit by a bump on the ground and launched into the air, accidentally saving them.
At this moment, Xiaozhi and the others are close to the top of the slope. Compared to the lower half of the slope, there is almost no vegetation growing there. Compared to the lower half, there are still stubborn growths of weeds. The upper half of the slope is mixed with boulders. However, the ground was compacted and few weeds could take root here.
Therefore, the upper half of the slope lacked weed coverage. The grip Xiaozhi and the others stepped on was not as smooth as the climb at the beginning. The pace of progress slowed down, and the top of the mountain, which was already close at hand, was difficult to reach.
It was not easy to reach the contact point between the slope and the top of the mountain. The huge rolling stones falling from above were particularly dense at this point...
Ash said to Piper.
"Let's find the right moment, and when there are only a few rolling stones falling, let's use Pokémon attacks to break through here, and let's work our way up to the top of the mountain!"
"Okay Xiaozhi! You, Pikachu, and Mini Fu will take the lead, and Hot Baby and I will coordinate with you to attack."
The situation is critical and there is no need to delay. Just do it, Xiaozhi ordered.
"Pikachu uses one hundred thousand volts! Minifu uses energy balls!"
A huge burst of electricity successfully overturned a huge rolling stone and landed behind Xiaozhi and the others. A powerful dark green energy ball containing vigorous life force spurted out and pushed another huge rolling stone away. Come to the designated place...
While avoiding danger, the next threat of rolling rocks struck again. Fortunately, Pipa and the others followed, and Pipa gave the order in cooperation.
"Hot baby, use the seed machine gun!"
A tiny bunch of seeds shot past, and the next rolling stone was deflected from its original track, giving Xiaozhi and the others a huge advance distance...
Obviously Xiaozhi and the others underestimated the speed of the stone bird under the treasure master to launch a rockfall attack. Just when Xiaozhi and Piper thought that there was no danger and were about to cross the final slope, another huge boulder suddenly fell and pressed towards them in an instant. Above their heads...
"What happened..., everyone, run!"
By the time they discovered it, it was obviously too late and they were in a dilemma...
Suddenly, a black shadow ran towards Xiaozhi and the others.
"Use telekinesis quickly!"
The falling boulder fell slowly under the influence of telepathy.
"Ash, Pipa, hurry up and pass!"
When they heard the sound and turned to look, it turned out that it was Xiaoqing holding Xinye Miao and riding Qilinqi who arrived in time.
