Chapter 281 Magical Fruit Wine (4000)

 Yggdrasil, Lightning Bird…

Pipa on the side became more and more confused as he listened. What is the World Tree? What is Lightning Bird? Is it a Pokémon?

 No, that’s not right!

Pipa opened his mouth with a look of surprise on his face.

Sure enough, Mr. Naoki can understand the sounds of Pokémon!

He couldn't hold it back and finally asked: "Mr. Naoki, um... can you talk to Pokémon?"

Zhi Shu slapped his head and then remembered that Pipa was still around.

He took out a piece of translation melon seed cake and handed it to Pipa, and said:

“This is a dish I made with my secret power. After eating it, you can understand Pokémon’s words, but the effect only lasts for a period of time.”

Hearing this, Pipa was a little surprised. He reached out and took it, looking at the snack that he had never seen before in disbelief.

Naoki said nonsense seriously: "This is the power of food. A good chef can develop the hidden effects of food. I heard that there is a Pokémon growing somewhere in the world that can make people seriously ill and incurable." Here are the ingredients to restore your health!”

Pipa opened his mouth in shock, it was so amazing!

Zhishu smiled and said: "Try it? Maybe after eating it you can understand the Mastiff Godfather's words!"

Pipa looked at the Mastiff Godfather on the side. After hearing Naoki's words, the Mastiff Godfather's slightly cloudy eyes also revealed a ray of light.

 “Wooow!”

Pipa picked up the melon seed cake in his hand and put it into his mouth.

 Suddenly, an irresistibly sweet aroma filled his mouth.

Pipa’s eyes lit up, it’s delicious!

It wasn’t until he swallowed the whole piece of melon seed cake that the mastiff godfather beside him asked again:

 “Wooow?” (Pipa?)

Hearing this familiar yet unfamiliar voice, Pipa's eyes widened and he was shocked: "Mastermastiff Godfather? Is it you who is talking?"

The Mastiff Godfather nodded cheerfully: "Wow!" (It's me, Pipa!)

"I can really understand Pokémon talking..." Pipa stood there blankly. At this moment, no words could describe his mood.

Zhi Shu stood aside and looked at this scene with a smile. He glanced at the Mastiff Godfather and said:

"Master Mastiff, do you have anything to say to Pipa? You can take this opportunity to tell him!"

Pipa was startled for a moment, then came back to his senses and lowered his head to look at the mastiff godfather in front of him.

 The Mastiff Godfather also looked at him lovingly.

 This child...it has watched grow up with its own eyes.

Pippa was born when he was still called Mastiff.

 At that time, Dr. Olin and Dr. Fortu brought it to Pipa and told it that Pipa would live with it in the future.

So, from that day on, Mastiff stayed with Pipa and watched him grow up. From the lively and cheerful little boy at the beginning, he grew into a taciturn and very lonely little boy.

 And it also evolved from being called Mastiff to being the Godfather of Mastiff.

Thinking of this, the Mastiff Godfather couldn't help but feel very sad.

Pipa is a very poor child. His father and mother are always busy with work, which leads to Pipa living alone from childhood to adulthood.

 Sometimes, even during the Chinese New Year, one is alone.

Looking at Pipa, the Mastiff Godfather slowly said: "Wow!" (I will always stay with Pipa!)

"Godfather of the Mastiff..." Pipa's eyes were sore, and then she said seriously: "Thank you!"

Zhi Shu, Guluton and other Pokémon stood aside and watched this scene silently.

“The relationship between Pipa and the Mastiff Godfather is indeed very good... No wonder Pipa would later travel throughout the Padia region to cure the Mastiff Godfather.” Naoki thought in his heart.

At this time, Pipa stood up, wiped his sore eyes, and said to Naoki: "Thank you too, Mr. Naoki."

"Okay!" Naoki took a deep breath, and then smiled: "Now that we have arrived at the ranch, let's forget about those unhappy things and enjoy the pastoral life in winter! This is difficult to enjoy in a big city Arrived!"

"Um!"

Pipa nodded, and then took the Mastiff Godfather to play in the snow.

Zhi Shu began to introduce the returning Meng and Baby Bear to the companions who joined the ranch after they left.

 After a run outside, Baby Bear became completely different from before.

Perhaps it’s because of things he’s seen, and he’s met more Pokémon. Now the baby bear has become lively and cheerful. He can quickly become friends with any Pokémon he faces.

Perhaps this is a talent?

　　After dinner, the sky outside became dark. In this cold snowy night, Naoki and everyone gathered in front of the fireplace to warm themselves up.

 The orange-red firelight illuminated the faces of a group of Pokémon, making the room feel warm.

Huluton lay on the carpet, resting his arms on his pillow, closing his eyes and concentrating with a peaceful expression.

The Motorized Lizard stretched its body comfortably and waggled its tail happily.

  Babu Woodchuck and Frost Milk Fairy ran around the straight tree chasing each other.

Mew and Baby Bear kept eating the honey pudding and honey tea that Naoki prepared for them.

Pipa is also here grooming the Mastiff Godfather’s fur.

 Zhi Shu looked at the baby bear eating honey pudding, smiled and said to it: "You have changed a lot now!"

 Baby Bear raised his head, a little puzzled: "One?" (What does it mean?)

　　Naoki recalled with emotion the scene when they first met: "At that time, you deliberately appeared in the pasture disguised as a poor little lost bear, trying to steal the honey while I wasn't paying attention."

 Hearing this, Baby Bear was very embarrassed.

Zhishu laughed, and then revealed to Baby Bear:

“Actually, before I met you, I had heard about you from other ranchers nearby. They told me to be careful of a baby bear.”

 The nearby ranchers... should refer to the pastures visited by it.

Thinking of this, Baby Bear was very surprised: "One?!" (So Zhishu already knew that I would come to the pasture to steal honey?!)

Zhi Shu nodded and said truthfully: "That's right."

"What?" Then, there was a puzzled look in Baby Bear's eyes: "What?" (Then why didn't you drive me away? Why did you keep me here?)

If it were any other human being, I am afraid that the "thief" would be driven away at the first sight of it.

The baby bear really wanted to know the answer to this question. He put down the honey pudding in his hand and looked up at Naoki.

Zhi Shu thought about it carefully before replying: "This is probably because we are destined, right? God destined me to meet you."

Just like the sentence that players can see on Pokémon’s profile in the game—Baby Bear crossed distant time and space and met him in a fateful way.

 Baby Bear didn’t understand, but he seemed very powerful as soon as he heard these words!

 It had a smile on its face and said happily: "One!" (I'm also very happy to meet Naoki!)

Naoki smiled slightly, and then asked: "Are you going to continue traveling next?"

Hearing this, Baby Bear and Meng Meng looked at each other.

 Hong Kong Meng nodded slightly: "miu!" (That's right!)

 The baby bear also said: "What!" (The journey of the heroes expedition team is not over yet!)

 Just after finishing speaking, Baby Bear’s tone became low again: “One…” (In this case, he has to leave Naoki again…)

 “Don’t worry!” Naoki reached out and touched the baby bear’s little head. Baby Bear raised his head and looked at him blankly.

Naoki smiled at it: "If you want to do it, then do it! I will always be waiting for you here at the ranch. If you are tired, you can go home anytime and anywhere. I will prepare a meal for you then. A sumptuous dinner.”

“One…” Upon hearing these words, the baby bear’s face was moved, and his eyes shone with light, which was called tears of emotion.

 Baby Bear wiped his tears and said firmly: "One!" (I will always remember Naoki!)

 No matter where it goes in the future, it will remember and miss Naoshu.

Zhishu smiled slightly. He yawned and felt a little sleepy: "Okay, it's getting late, it's time to rest!"

   *

  November 25th, Year 198 of the Alliance Calendar.

On this day, Dr. Olin returned from the Padia Pit and came to the ranch to take Pipa home.

“I have troubled you for a while.” Dr. Olin expressed his gratitude to Naoki.

Zhishu smiled and shook his head: "It's no trouble. Pipa is very sensible and he also helped me with a lot of work."

 A smile appeared on Dr. Olin's face, and then she took Pipa and Naoki to say goodbye.

 “We are going back and will visit you again when we have time next time.”

Zhi Shu nodded and looked at Pipa: "Goodbye, Pipa! If you have nothing to do, you can come to the ranch to play!"

Pipa and the Mastiff Godfather were having a great time these days. They nodded and waved to Naoki: "Goodbye, Mr. Naoki!"

Zhi Shu stood in the pasture and watched their figures go away.

 Until he could no longer see her, he turned around and returned to the living room.

●Today is November 25th, and the Chinese New Year will be next month.

　　It is quite emotional to say that it has been almost a year since he came to the Pokémon world.

The weather forecast says that snow will continue to fall in Zhiqin Town in the next half month. By then, even the roads may be buried in snow.

Just in case, Naoki felt that he had to stock up on new year’s goods in advance.

 He won’t go out at that time, and stays at home with the Pokémon all day long, warming himself in front of the fireplace and reading a book.

 Zhi Shu checked the inventory at home.

“There aren’t many steaks left, and we’re almost running out of flour and seasonings. We still have a lot of eggs. We can produce them in the pasture, so there’s no need to go to town to buy them.”

“It’s a pity that the greenhouse hasn’t been built yet, otherwise we could have eaten fresh vegetables grown by ourselves.”

“But it doesn’t matter, it will be the same if we wait until next year to build it again.”

“In addition to these supplies, we also need to purchase a batch of tree fruits. First, they can be used to make poffins, and second, they can also be used as snacks for Guluton.”

 After pondering for a moment, Naoki took out a pen and paper and wrote down all the things he wanted to purchase.

 In the afternoon of the same day, he rode Gulton and took three goats to the town of Ziqin.

 In winter, Zhiqin Town completely changes its appearance.

The roofs of the houses in the town were covered with a layer of white snow, and the pedestrians and Pokémon on the streets also wore thick winter clothes and tied scarves.

Even though the temperature is cold, the Zhiqin market is still bustling with activity.

Zhishu bought what he needed according to the list, then hung the large and small bags on the goats and asked them to help carry the goods.

 When the three goats were fully loaded, they ended the purchasing trip and returned to the pasture.

Zhi Shu called over some Pokémon such as Motorized Lizard and Baboo and asked them to help carry the goods home, while he himself carried a few bags and hurried back.

 After all this work was done, the time came to four o'clock in the evening.

Zhi Shu looked at the calendar and suddenly remembered that the fruit wine he put in the wine cellar to brew should be ready.

So, he went to the wine cellar and found the oak barrel for making fruit wine. As soon as he opened the cork, a strong fruity aroma of wine wafted out from it.

 Smelling this smell, Naoki's eyes lit up and he quickly took a drink with a beer glass.

This is fruit wine brewed from peach fruits. Under the dim light, the liquid in this glass of fruit wine is as clear as a pool of spring water, and the wine is light pink, just like the color of peach fruits.

Zhi Shu looked down, and the information about this glass of fruit wine immediately emerged from his mind.

Peach fruit wine (B): Fruit wine brewed from peach fruits. It perfectly combines the fragrance of the fruit with the mellow aroma of the wine. It tastes sweet and may be sought after by some Pokémon.

 Cooking effect: Poison resistance, with detoxification effect. After drinking it, it can relieve the poisoning and poisonous status of the Pokémon, and add some poison resistance to the Pokémon's body. The effects cannot be superimposed.

  (Poison resistance: When a Pokémon is poisoned, it can reduce the damage caused by poisoning, and has a slight chance of becoming immune to the poisoning state.)

 Evaluation: Although the wine is good, don’t be greedy! ]

 Seeing the effect of this glass of fruit wine, Naoki couldn't help but look surprised.

 Poison resistance? This effect is exaggerated! Special attack against poison-type Pokémon.

However, after seeing the "little" and "weak chance" behind it, Naoki no longer felt that it was an exaggeration.

But overall it’s not bad. At least drinking this glass of fruit wine can permanently reduce some of the damage caused by poisoning.

 Now that’s good, the drinks in the tavern are finally available.

 Then, Naoki opened the next oak barrel.

Last time he made fruit wine, he used a total of three kinds of tree fruits, namely peach fruit, cherry fruit and pomelo fruit.

Now Peach Fruit Wine has a detoxifying effect, but what about the other two?

Thinking of this, Zhi Shu quickly took a glass of cherry wine and examined it.

[Sakura fruit wine (B): A fruit wine brewed from cherry fruits. It has a spicy taste, and may be liked by fire-type Pokémon.

 Cooking effect: Paralysis resistance. After drinking it, it can relieve the Pokémon's paralysis state and provide some paralysis resistance to the Pokémon, reducing the chance of it falling into paralysis. The effect cannot be superimposed.

 Evaluation: Although the wine is good, don’t be greedy! ]

“Sure enough, paralysis resistance can be permanently increased!”

Zhi Shu decided to go back and give all the Pokémon in the pasture a drink. Although the resistance was not increased much, sometimes it might just be that little resistance.

 Next, there is the last grapefruit wine left.

Zhi Shu opened the cork of the oak barrel, poured a glass of fruit wine, and looked down.

Pomelo fruit wine (B): Fruit wine brewed from pomelo fruit has a sweet and sour taste, and may be popular with some Pokémon.

 Cooking effect: Physical recovery. After drinking, the drinker will regain physical strength.

Comment: Although the wine is good, don’t be greedy! ]

 Naoki: “…”

　　Why did your crotch stretch out when you arrived at Wenyouguo?

  No, it cannot be said that it stretches the hips, it can only be regarded as having an average effect.

 Looking at the three oak barrels in front of him, Naoki fell into deep thought.

Peach fruit that cures poisoning can provide Pokémon with poison resistance, and Sakura fruit that relieves paralysis can provide paralysis resistance to Pokémon.

So the question is, what effect will these fruit wines have if they are replaced by sand scale fruits that increase speed and zhili fruits that increase attack?
