He knows Pokémon better than me

Ten minutes later, the four of them came to this charcoal burning place in the tung forest.

The terrain is relatively flat, surrounded by trees, but there is a large area around the wooden house, without the cover of leaves, the sunlight can directly shine in.

In the back yard, a huge arched earth nest can be seen from a distance, like a giant egg standing up, presumably there is a place for burning charcoal.

When burning charcoal, the excess flames float out from there, and after being purified by the tung forest, there is basically no air pollution.

An old man in sackcloth and flat-headed, who was dressed similarly to Shangren, was sitting in the small yard in front of the wooden house.

Lying on his back on a grand teacher's chair, shaking slowly, closing his eyes to rest his mind, drinking tea and resting.

"How come this scene seems to have been seen somewhere...?"

Xiaozhi couldn't help muttering.

...

"Master, I have completed your task!"

Shangren carried a brown-black firewood nearly as tall as a person on his back, and said cheerfully.

Walking to the side of the old man, he carefully piled up the firewood in a corner of the yard.

The old man in sackcloth glanced at Shangren's pile of paulownia wood, then at the duck with green onions standing opposite him at his feet, and finally at Xiaozhi and the three behind him.

With deep and experienced eyes, he can see everything in an instant.

"Shang Ren, someone else cut it for you, right?"

He directly broke the path, causing Shang Ren to stand on the spot in embarrassment.

"Hmph, you still have to be down-to-earth, otherwise I won't pass on all my skills to you!"

The old man in sackcloth stood up, put his hands behind his back, and scolded quite seriously.

"I see, master... the firewood was actually chopped by Xiaozhi and the others..."

Shang Ren quickly and sincerely admitted his mistake.

"Gah!"

The scallion duck next to him hit him with a scallion rather disgustingly.

...

Seeing this, the old man in sackcloth looked at the few people behind him.

"Are you travelers from afar? My stupid apprentice made you laugh."

"Yes, yes, we are trainers from the Kanto region."

The three of Xiaozhi quickly introduced themselves, and the old man with flat hair looked very fierce.

"The Kanto region, that's a faraway place..."

The old man thought for a while, and seemed to think of something at this moment, and looked at Xiaozhi standing in the front with burning eyes.

"By the way, if you are a trainer, can I ask you one thing?"

Before Xiaozhi could say anything, he added:

"Of course, I won't go whoring for nothing, of course I will be paid..."

As he spoke, he took out a white CD from his pocket.

"This is a one-word skill machine, it should be a powerful skill for you trainers?"

"Oh, I have this..."

Xiaozhi just said helplessly.

One word chop skill machine, when he was still in the Kanto area, on the luxury cruise ship at the wharf of Kuye City, he found one from the trash can.

And there is one thing to say, this trick is a bit weak...

Seeing this, the old man took out another palm-sized sack that was tied tightly at the top.

Opening the pocket, the three of Xiaozhi leaned over their heads and looked inside curiously.

To the eye, in the sack was a piece of black charcoal, about a finger long.

"Haha, my unique skill is burning charcoal, and I can give you charcoal as a reward..."

Seeing that the expression in Xiaozhi's eyes dimmed instantly, the old man raised his eyes immediately, and introduced rather hastily:

"Young trainer, don't underestimate my piece of charcoal. This level of special charcoal can only be fired for a week before I can produce a small piece! It can even be used as a prop in Pokémon battles!"

He was afraid that Xiaozhi would not know what to do.

When he mentioned his craft, his tone was a bit bearded and staring.

A large pile of firewood, which is fired, is also normal charcoal, which has no benefit to Pokémon.

But after his seasoned craftsmanship and good luck, he can get a piece of charcoal essence.

Carrying Pokémon on the body as a prop can greatly increase the power of Pokémon's fire-attribute skills.

The props that improve the water attribute are mysterious water drops. Similarly, charcoal is also an expensive prop.

"And my charcoal is super-high-quality charcoal. Letting the fire-attribute Pokémon carry it can help the former to better grasp the powerful flame to a certain extent, and even store part of the flame energy in it."

This is already a rare treasure!

But the charcoal-burning old man has no pursuit of this money or anything. Veteran craftsmen give it away when they want, and don't care about the value of it.

...

"Haha master, just let me know what the reward is. I'm a good boy in Zhenxin Town. Tell me what you want me to do for you. I will try my best to help you complete the task!"

Xiaozhi put the cloth bag carefully into his pocket, slapped his chest, and immediately took over the task.

Even the words are accompanied by respectful words.

This piece of charcoal can just help his fireball mouse better master the jet flame...

"I'm so envious, picking up a high-level item for nothing..."

Beside, Xiaoxia said with some bitterness.

She worked diligently in the Hualan gymnasium, checked in for many years, and got a low-quality mysterious water drop.

As a result, Xiaozhi got a high-quality charcoal backhand?

hateful!

Xiao Gang next to him was even more strange about another matter.

Speaking of doing missions now, do you get paid first and then talk about missions...?

...

"Actually, this task is nothing. It's just a friend of mine who just brought five ducks with green onions from other places last month..."

Scallion Duck is a Pokémon in my hometown, but in fact, the number of this kind of Pokémon in the Kanto and Johto areas has become very rare in recent years, and it is a precious Pokémon.

"Yeah?"

The three of Xiaozhi were taken aback, and he subconsciously took out the illustration book.

"Didi. Scallion Duck, Pokémon with its own condiments. The meat is delicious and delicate. If it is cooked with the scallion roots he carries, it will be even more delicious. Therefore, it has been hunted by humans and has become scarce. Squeeze."

The picture book suggested.

It's not like a Pokémon book, it's more like a cookbook.

The part of duck with scallions that once attracted foreign countries may be because the locals don’t like the taste of scallions, and now they are on the other side of the ocean. On the contrary, the number is more than that of Kanto City, the place of origin.

Burning charcoal requires the cooperation of ducks with green onions, so the old man who burns charcoal specially asked his friends to bring some ducks with green onions from other places.

Now one is in Shang Ren's hands, three are in his hands, and the other one is the key to the mission.

Several people cheered up and continued to listen.

"This scallion duck has an extroverted and aggressive personality. He doesn't like to obey human orders. A week ago, a scallion smashed the elf ball and ran away. Now he is king in the nearby jungle and likes to attack the surrounding wild animals. Pokémon, and even often attack trainers passing by."

I am ashamed to say that the old man is just a charcoal burner, not a strong trainer, not enough to tame this warlike green onion duck.

"Oh, I get it, do you want me to help you arrest that scallion duck? Leave it to me!"

Xiaozhi's eyes lit up, and he immediately agreed.

It's not a big problem for him to catch Pokémon or something.

The old man nodded, but then added:

"Hehe, but that scallion duck looks a bit strange, it's not suitable to stay here, if you catch it, then take it away together, and go out with the trainer, maybe it's the most suitable for it. ..”

As he spoke, he also took out a photo showing five ducks with green onions standing side by side.

Among them, a scallion duck is particularly different.
