Elf: Sailing since being taken in by New Leaf Cat

Chapter 32 Flowers connect friendship, Oliniu comes on board
The River Styx is one of the dividing lines between this world and hell. Although it is not the only way to go to hell, the soul will go through this journey first and be washed away by the water of the Styx. After reaching the other side, according to these sins, to make a judgment.

On this silent and deep Styx River, a small wooden boat sailed slowly past along with the waves. There was a candlelight spirit on the bow of the boat lighting up the boat. The candlelight swayed gently, indicating the direction for the souls to move forward.

Around the hull, there are many objects similar to lotus leaves and origami boats. Purple candles are also lit on these objects, drifting with the waves, illuminating the world with faint light.

At this moment, Geng Gui was sitting on the small boat. He had already put the hat on his head like an old boatman, and he felt that his temperament suddenly became much more wretched.

It was rowing with an oar while looking anxiously at Qiu Qing, who was catching up with her while surfing on a tombstone. This human is still chasing me, tmd!

Gengar wanted to knock this guy down with a shadow ball, but they couldn't disturb the world unless the other person voluntarily wanted to die, but the boat couldn't stop or row back. This was their job.

"Gengar!"

"Let me get on board, just for a moment!"

Qiu Qing grabbed Gengar's boat with his invisible ultimate hand, but it seemed that there was some kind of regular power. He couldn't pull the boat back at all. He could only step on the tombstone and be dragged by this force.

After arriving here, he no longer needed the Rotom mobile phone. Olinio could also see Sweet Dance Ni sitting quietly on the boat in front of him. He couldn't help but froze, looking at it from a distance, his body trembling slightly.

Only less than 20 meters away...

But it’s still too far. There is an upper limit to the force the Ultimate Hand can bear depending on the objects it sticks to. After being dragged by the boat for so long, I finally couldn’t bear it anymore and disconnected directly...

"It's not over yet!"

Seeing the moment when the ultimate hand was disconnected, Qiu Qing was ready to grab the opponent's boat again immediately, but suddenly something invisible seemed to grab him, and then the surrounding scenery suddenly disappeared...

When he came back to his senses, he and Olinio had already returned to the deck, and Xinye Miao was standing in front of him, with an expression as terrifying as ever before. It was obviously very cute, but it made people shudder!

"Mao Mao, this..."

"Meow!"

"It hurts..."

Xinye Miao used the Meow Meow Fist to slap Qiu Qing on the head hard. This time the cat was really angry. Fortunately, Doron Baruto went over in time and did not reach the finish line, otherwise he would not be able to get it back.

I just went to buy some seasoning, but I almost killed a person. I was so brainless, and I almost scared the cat to death. Do you want the cat to reopen before you do?
Seeing Qiu Qing being beaten, Olinio came to his senses and quickly stopped him, explaining that he wanted to help him see his friends again, so he chased Gengar.

"Meow?"

Xinye Miao stopped scolding, looked at Oliniu, and then looked at Qiu Qing, wanting to wait for the other party's explanation. Dolong Baruto did not leave, but hid in the air with a bunch of small Dolongs. Look below.

Qiu Qing touched her head, took out the flowers, and finally explained what happened. Because she promised that Oliniu would help him give the flowers to Tianwu Ni, she didn't think twice about it later.

After hearing the explanation, Xinye Miao was no longer too angry. She just held her forehead and shook her head. Helping others is a good thing, but your own life is more important!

Seeing Xinye Miao's helpless look on her, Qiu Qing sighed softly and said in a serious tone: "I know it's dangerous, but a certain novelist said this to me before...promises must be abided by!"

"Meow?"

"..."

Hearing these words, all the Pokémon around him, including Newleaf, subconsciously looked at him. Doronbalto in mid-air nodded slightly, seeming to agree with this answer.

"Linyu..."

Olinio looked at it blankly, but then Qiu Qing held the flower in her hand and said to it with a disappointed and apologetic expression: "But now, I'm afraid the agreement can't be fulfilled..."

After all, I don’t know why I was thrown out. If I want to go in again, I’m afraid I can only wait for a death to lead the way, but how could I meet him?

"Meow~"

Xinye Miao let out a soft cry, then jumped directly onto his shoulder, pushed her cheek, and pointed in the direction of the wheelhouse, as if to let him pass.

"Huh? Why are you going there...Although I changed the circuit, there is nothing I can do without wheels..."

"Meow!"

Xinye Miao rubbed his face vigorously and told you to go ahead. He didn't hesitate when chasing Gengar, and now he's doing this again. He really can't understand you.

"OK then……"

Qiu Qing didn't know what Xinye Miao wanted to do, but she still walked towards the wheelhouse. Doron Baruto in mid-air understood Xinye Miao's meaning. Although it was against the rules, it was worth a try!
After receiving the task, Bu Bo immediately ran to the power distribution room. Qiu Qing and Xin Ye Miao brought Oli Niu to the wheelhouse. At this moment, the surrounding temperature dropped sharply, and a mist enveloped them from unknown time.

"What the hell?"

Qiu Qing looked around in shock, watching the scenery gradually become familiar, and with a slight shaking, he found that he was back to the strange river again.

It was so outrageous that he couldn't find where to start, but now...

"My ship is coming!"

After his modifications based on the design drawings this month, the boat can now run on the water, and its speed has also been improved than before. If there is no fuel, it will be powered by electricity.

As a wave rolled up, the ship finally started to move on the River Styx, and its speed was still accelerating. The power in the power distribution room was also consumed rapidly, and even Bubo was shocked.

"But I didn't pick up garbage for nothing in a month. We have plenty of electric iron pieces!"

The boat moved forward quickly, and Xinye Miao, who was squatting in the captain's seat, looked at the familiar river, never expecting to return here again one day.

The lotus leaves and paper boats drifting on the river automatically spread to both sides as the boat approached. Soon, Qiu Qing saw the small boat in front of her that seemed to be reaching the end.Still worried that someone who suddenly disappeared was Gengar who fell into the river and drowned. Hearing the noise coming from behind, he subconsciously turned around and looked, and then he saw a large ship rushing towards him!

"!!!"

Gengar was so frightened by this scene that he jumped up. What the hell is this thing? Where does the soul need such a large ship? A hundred Kirby beasts?

"Pull over, your boat is not as big as mine, I may cause damage to you!"

Qiu Qing ran to the deck and yelled deliberately. Gengar, who was originally worried about whether he was drowned, cursed and waved his fat hands and yelled in response.

"Gengar!"

"Okay, pull over."

As he said that, Qiu Qing, who was standing on the bow of the boat, looked at Tian Wuni who was keeping quiet over there, smiled, and waved: "Your friend is here to see you~"

"Linyu!"

Olinio stood aside with the flowers. Although he had been silently suffering the pain of losing his friend today, when they met again, he finally couldn't help it and called to the other party with tears in his eyes.

But it is on the River Styx, so souls passing here will be affected by the rules here, receive soul washing, and will not be disturbed until they reach the end.

"Gengar!"

Gengar pointed at them and shouted, don't waste time. If you don't want to go to hell, go back as soon as possible. You will be at the end soon and you won't be able to escape by then.

Although Qiu Qing didn't understand, she guessed the meaning, so she looked down at Olinio. Although the other person was a little disappointed, he was satisfied that he finally saw his friend.

"Linyu~"

Olinio threw the flower in his hand to the boat below. This was the last flower that they had cultivated with all their heart, and it was not withered yet. It was also a testimony of their friendship. There was nothing more appropriate than this.

After doing all this, it turned around, and the ship seemed to be shrouded in fog at this moment, as if it was about to return to the real world.

But right now...

"Ni~"

"Linyu?!"

Hearing this familiar voice, Olinio quickly turned around and looked down, only to see Tianwuni, who had remained quiet before, now reaching out to catch the flower, with a smile on her face, and waved towards it.

Gengar on the side couldn't believe it. Such a thing happened, and the soul actually responded. He couldn't understand that it was obviously not the same world anymore...

But it did happen. Maybe it was the friendship between them. Seeing Tianwuni waving towards him, Oliniu was sluggish for a few seconds, and finally a smile appeared on his face, and he happily waved his little hand goodbye to the other party.

It was obvious that they were parting for life and death, and the two ships were about to go to different worlds, but there was nothing sad about the scene before them. The flowers connected friendship, and the smiles were the last faces they left for their friends.

Qiu Qing recorded this scene with her mobile phone, with a happy smile on her face as she watched the distance between the two ships getting farther and farther in the fog, until they were completely invisible...

The ship returned to reality and didn't even move. Qiu Qing didn't know who helped them, but he would be grateful for it.

The dazzling sunshine was shining, it was noon, and it was somewhat uncomfortable to come back from the Styx River.

Xinye Miao walked out. Although she was very satisfied with what happened just now, she still put on a slightly angry look and came to Qiu Qing's side.

"Meow!"

"what?"

Qiu Qing came to her senses and seemed to have forgotten something. Where was the seasoning she bought for Xinye Miao?
"Wait a minute, I think I left it in the square garden. I'll go and find it right away!"

"Linyu~"

Olinio, who felt relieved, said he would go with him, and then they came to Shenbo Town Square together. The garden had completely withered, but fortunately the seasonings Qiu Qing bought had not been taken away.

"Huh...it's dangerous."

After Qiu Qing picked up the bag and checked it, she finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then she looked to her side and suddenly discovered that Olinio was looking for something in the garden, and then she saw the other party dig out a few seeds.

"Huh? What is this?"

"Linyu~"

Olinio smiled. These are the seeds of sweet sunflowers. These flowers will have seeds left after they wither. Although it takes a lot of time, as long as you cultivate them carefully, they can grow again.

It buried some of the seeds back in the soil, collected the rest, and prepared to take them away to realize its and Sweet Dance's dream of making everyone fall in love with this flower.

So it needed to travel and have a suitable garden to plant. Then it looked at Qiu Qing and made its request.

"Linyu~"

Looking at its expression, Qiu Qing was slightly startled, then reached out and gently touched its head, and responded with a smile: "Well, welcome aboard~"
