Elf: Sailing since being taken in by New Leaf Cat

Chapter 180 The Ghost in Beishang Township

In the kitchen, the aroma is overflowing.

"Meow~"

Tiremiao brought a portion of tree fruit milk soup and egg fried noodles to Eguipun.

Although it's not time for lunch yet, it's okay to make one for each other. At worst, we'll eat it then.

"Um..."

Looking at the fragrant food in front of him, Eguifen's expression was full of surprise. Are these things really edible? Or am I dreaming?
  "Eat it, it's all yours, and no one will snatch it from you. If it's not enough, there will be more."

Qiu Qing sat across from the dining table and said with a smile. After hearing this, Eguifen finally stopped hesitating and started eating with big mouthfuls.

"Hmm~"

It’s so delicious, I’ve never eaten this food before~
  Seeing it feasting, Tiremiao shook her head, what a pitiful child, how could this be a ghost? Or is it that those people from Beishang Township misunderstood it and regarded it as a ghost?
  Just when the cat was curious about this, Ergui Chu in front of him had already finished all the food and was rubbing his belly with enjoyment.

"Hmm~"

It no longer knows how long it has been since it was so full, and it even feels like crying.

"When you're full, rest here. You can stay as long as you want. No one will chase you away."

Qiu Qing said with a smile. Although they didn't know why the other party was so afraid of them, they both liked such a cute child.

"Um?!"

Can I really stay here and rest?
  Eguifen once again showed a surprised expression. He always felt that everything he experienced today was really like a dream. In the past, let alone talking about so many things, he would not even dare to think about any one of them.

"Um..."

When he thought of this, Ergui's expression gradually became sad, and his tears couldn't stop flowing out.

"what happened?"

"Meow?"

Seeing that it started crying, Qiu Qing and Xinye Miao were both a little anxious, thinking that something had happened, but Erguifen shook his head and just expressed that they were happy because they didn't hate him.

"Does this look like you are happy..."

Qiu Qing shook her head helplessly. From the phone conversation, she found out that many people in Beishang Township seemed to hate Ergui, so they gradually caused such psychological trauma to the other party...

I really don’t understand, how can anyone hate such a cute Pokémon? These guys from Beishang Township are really ungrateful!
  After spending some time together, Ergui gradually let down his guard against him, and soon it was time for lunch. The Dream Demon and Bean Cricket both came here, and saw that Ergui had never seen this one before. After seeing the Pokémon, they were all very surprised.

"It's Ergui. Although it's not a crew member, we should all get along well together. Don't bully it. It's time to eat soon. Let's play for a while first."

Qiu Qing did not forget to remind him that Bean Cricket was okay, but he was more worried that the dream demon would cause trouble. This child was really a bit too naughty.

But there is no need to worry about what he said. The Dream Demon actually likes cute things very much. When he saw how cute Egui Chu was, he took the initiative to stick to her. He was so enthusiastic that E Kuei Chu was at a loss.

"Meow~"

Tiremiao nodded with satisfaction, this was pretty good and everyone was enjoying themselves.

At this time, Sha Li also came here on time. After seeing Egui Chu, he couldn't help being shocked: "Could this be..."

Although she had never seen it, she had heard Grandma Mozawa give a rough description of the appearance of the "evil ghost" that once attacked Kitakami Township.

Eguifen was frightened by her reaction and immediately hid in the corner and huddled up.

"Um..."

Seeing this, Qiu Qing put her forehead on her head and shook her head: "Don't scare it, Sister Shali, Ergui is very timid."

"Feel sorry……"

Shali clasped his hands together and asked in a low voice: "Why is it here?"

"It ran up here when it was too hungry, because everyone in Emerald Town hates it, and it doesn't dare to go there to ask for food. Winter is a disaster for some wild Pokémon..."

Qiu Qing told the general story. What is certain is that Ergui is definitely not the ghost that only attacks the village in the legend of Beishang Township.

It's not the ghost that has caused so many people to disappear in recent days. This doesn't look like a poison-type or ghost-type Pokémon at all.

"really……"

Sha Li nodded. After all, Ergui was really too cute. After seeing it, normal people would never associate him with the image of an "evil ghost". Moreover, his personality didn't look like it at all.

But now that we have met...

Sha Li immediately took out his camera and prepared to take a picture of Ergui, but was stopped by Qiu Qing: "It's better to say goodbye and let it calm down first. I always feel that it seems to have some psychological trauma. I will ask again later." It has something to do with Kitakami Township.”

"This... that's fine."

In this case, Shali was not the kind of unreasonable person, so he said sorry to Eguifen, and there was no one here who would dislike him.

"Um..."

After a while, after lunch, everyone focused all their attention on Erguipun. Since Maomao was the first to make the other party lower their guard, it was naturally Tiremiao who asked about related matters.

"Meow~"

Tiremiao did not attack alone, but first asked the other party if there was anything they needed help with.

"Um..."

Eguifen hesitated for a moment and shook his head slightly. It was obvious that he wanted to ask someone for help, but it was not convenient for him to speak out.

But Tiremiao is a good cat in the social world. Soon, with the efforts of the cat, Erguifen was finally willing to talk.

"Um..."

It wanted to get its mask back, so it took out the Bicao Mask and said that there were three more such masks, all of which had been taken away.

"Meow?"

By whom?

"Um..."

Those people in Beishang Township took away the mask hundreds of years ago and hid it somewhere. They even threw it as a ghost and drove it out of the village, even though it was not a ghost at all.

"..."

Finally hearing the key point, Tiremiao glanced at everyone, and then continued to ask while trying not to irritate the other person.

"Meow~"    Cat Cat wants to know about ghosts.

"Um..."

Ergui is very simple. In fact, as long as you ask it, it will basically answer without hesitation, so it said that it is a completely different version from the legend in Beishang Township...

It came to Beishang Township with its companions hundreds of years ago and wanted to settle in Beishang Township. However, it did not expect that the villagers here were very unwelcome to them. As long as they dared to approach, they would find a group of people to drive them away.

Later, a villager couldn't stand it anymore, so he borrowed the crystals brought by his companions to create four masks. As long as you put on the mask, you can sneak into the village during the mask festival and participate happily with everyone. Activity.

Everything was going very smoothly at first, but three Pokémon were eyeing these masks. They took advantage of Ergui's absence, so they ran over and tried to snatch all the masks away.

Ergui's companions tried to stop him, but in the end they were killed by these Pokémon, leaving only a mask that was protected with his life.

When Erguipun saw this scene after returning home, he was so angry that he rushed out and beat all three Pokémon to death, but the mask that was taken away was missing.

The people of Beishang Township also regarded it as the legendary evil spirit of Beishang Township. As for the three Pokémon that were killed, they became the heroes who protected Beishang Township and were respectfully called treasure companions.

As for the rest...

"Um..."

Erguifen directly told all his experiences. Maybe it was too long since he had met someone who didn't hate it, and he really wanted to vent his inner feelings and find other people to cry out his inner sadness.

"Meow……"

Tiremiao didn't know what to say. Who are these people?

"bean……"

Bean Cricket also shook its head. Fortunately, after hearing the stories of these heroes in Beishang Township, it even ran over to Baoban Plaza. What happened?
  Those who bear the name of heroes and end up doing all kinds of bad things should throw these guys into their graves, drag them out and beat them up!
  "Dream..."

How pitiful!
  Dream Demon is angry, why wasn’t he here in the first place? If you see them, you must personally drag the souls of these killed guys back to hell, and then torture them.

"Is this the truth..."

Shali raised her forehead and shook her head. Why is there such a big gap between the story told by Grandma Mozawa? It is simply another story. And based on the current situation, it is obvious that what Ergui said is more reasonable. At least the other party is not like Kitakamigo. As in the story.

"..."

Qiu Qing sighed softly and sympathized deeply with Ergui's experience, but at the same time he also noticed a very crucial point, that is the legendary "ghost" in Beishang Township... This ghost seemed to have existed before Ergui It existed, but Ergui was mistaken for a ghost by those in Beishang Township.

"Sure enough, there are still masters..."

"Meow……"

Tiremiao also noticed it, so this ghost is not Ergui Pun, then who could it be talking about?
  So it asked, thinking that Ergui might not know, but the other party became excited after hearing the question about "ghost".

"Um!"

Ergui was quite angry. This was the first time he showed such emotion, because that guy was the culprit who instigated the three Pokémon to kill and steal the goods. Instead of taking action himself, he used poisonous chains to control the three Pokémon to steal the masks. .

"what?!"

Qiu Qing was shocked. She didn't expect to ask directly. She thought there would be more twists and turns, and the poisonous chain... it was basically certain that the other party should be a poison-type Pokémon.

Then Eguipun continued to tell them the relevant things. The Pokémon looked like a purple peach and was very hard, otherwise it would have killed them all together.

"wild……"

Shali was dumbfounded. A grass-type Pokémon chased a group of poison-type Pokémon, and even three died and one escaped. So how terrifying is Ergui's strength?
  It’s no wonder that Mother-in-law Momosawa wants to lead the “ghost” as the culprit of the incident to Ergui Peng, hoping that they will solve the other party. But does Egui Pup still have the strength now?

"Purple peach..."

Qiuqing noticed this and recalled the strange events she encountered at the Moozawa store. She remembered that there was a dusty purple peach doll on the shelf at that time, and then the doll suddenly disappeared, and various things happened.

"Could it be that the peach is a ghost?"

The more he thought about it, the more likely it was. Unfortunately, he was about to take a photo with his cell phone Rotom, but was interrupted by Mother-in-law Momosawa. Otherwise, everything would have been clear, but it was a pity that it was missed like this.

After listening to what Qiu Qing said, it can now be basically concluded that the purple Taozi is causing trouble in this matter. Ergui said that the other party has the ability to control others, so Mother-in-law Mozawa and the taxi driver may have been cheated by the other party. Controlled.

"Looks like we have something to do again!"

"Meow!"

Tiremiao nodded. Now she finally knew the identity of the other party and no longer faced the unknown existence as before. Then they suddenly changed from a passive position to an equal position.

According to what Ergui said, it is certain that the attributes of this ghost peach are definitely ghost type + poison type. Cats and dream monsters are experts in dealing with ghost type Pokémon.

"Dream~"

Just leave it to me!

The Dream Demon instantly gained momentum. A bunch of country bumpkins dared to bully Tongtun. I’m afraid they don’t know the strength of our Pokémon from Hell!

"Then let's investigate later. The ability of this Ghost Taozi is a bit weird now. Maybe it's a little different from when it was chased away by the Egui Piao hundreds of years ago. I remember that the opponent was chased away by the He Yue Bear. Maybe there is an acquaintance relationship between them.”

Qiu Qing had some ideas of his own. He wanted to bring He Yuexiong into the team, and then everyone would work together to eliminate the hidden danger of this ghost Taozi.

"Haha, then I have to come along!"

Sha Li smiled and raised the camera, waiting to take a photo of He Yue Xiong, and then solve the problem of Gui Tao Zi, help Er Gui Chu find the mask, and then go home before the end of the year. It was simply not great.

"Um..."

Seeing that everyone was very willing to help him, Ergui looked a little confused. Although he had seen too many incredible things today, he really couldn't hold it back this time...

"Um!"

Erguifen burst into tears, as if she was letting out all her grievances for so many years. Qiuqing wanted to come forward to comfort her, but Tiremiao stretched out her paw to stop her, and just let him cry properly.

"This... that's fine."

Qiu Qing nodded and watched Egui Pun cry for five minutes before finally stopping. Then he smiled and said, "Then let's work hard together. Please give me your advice next time."

"Um!"

Eguifen nodded. He didn't know how long he had been there. He trusted others like this again. This feeling was really missed.

"Hmm, then let's prepare well and see when the weather forecast will be foggy before deciding to set off for the permanent forest!"
