In addition to Senbu and Gardevoir, there was also a woman wearing sunglasses.
In fact, his classes for the first half of the semester haven't ended yet, so theoretically he should go back to school first.
However, the talker at Beijing University is by your side, and Xia Chen has just made great contributions to the school. Isn’t it easy to take a short vacation from now to the winter vacation?
As for the issue of course credits
The credits awarded to the champion of the Donghuang Youth Competition, the most important competition, are enough for ten training family students to graduate normally.
It would be unfair to say that this championship carries the most weight. There are also competitions with higher reward points.
For example, the World Youth Trainer Championship, regional conferences, world championships, etc.
However, in the history of the school, no one has ever graduated with the credits awarded for winning the championship in such a competition.
In short, in theory, Xia Chen and Hu Yang will have no problem getting their diplomas together during the graduation season next year.
But still the same sentence.
Yes, but not necessary.
Anyway, I can take leave at will and still travel. Why not get some scholarships every year?
Eleven o'clock in the morning.
At Zhijiang Shuijun International Airport, a plane departing from Funan City landed smoothly, and Xia Chen and Sirona walked out of the cabin.
Taking a deep breath of the familiar air, Xia Chen showed a satisfied smile, "Sure enough, the air humidity in Zhijiang is more comfortable."
Shangjing is too dry and Funan is too moist, so the river in between is just right.
Sirona was not as pretentious as Xia Chen, so she tightened her tight coat and walked out.
Xia Chen followed, still muttering to the side: "We will eat out at noon, and we will clean the house in the afternoon. I haven't been back for half a year. There are probably wild elves growing in the yard, and I need to buy some new year's goods."
Sirona suddenly stopped, tilted her head and asked: "Your schedule. I won't spend seven days at your house, right?"
"Well"
Xia Chen said weakly: "Can't you?"
Sirona raised her forehead and asked, "Do you have any misunderstanding about the word travel?"
Xia Chen thought for a while and asked back: "Then do you want to eat the food I cook every day, watch TV and play games, and occasionally go shopping, or do you want to eat and sleep outside every day and travel around the mountains and rivers?"
Sirona was silent for a while and said: "It's up to you."
Xia Chen smiled slightly. He knew you were a homebody at the first sight. I still can't handle you?
If you don't relax at home and go out for a walk during the holidays, what's the difference between your working life and going to ruins and running outdoors every day on weekdays?
After a year of busy playing games and a year of digging up ruins, you should just lie down and enjoy yourself at home!
…………
Xia Chen's home is quite far from the airport. When we arrived near his home, it was almost twelve o'clock.
The house has not been cleaned for half a year, so it will definitely be inconvenient to cook and eat for a while.
So Xia Chen took Sirona to a small restaurant that he always went to when he was too lazy to cook.
"Long time no see, Uncle Tai, and you, Elegant Cat."
Xia Chen smiled and greeted a half-bald old man lying on a lounge chair in the sun at the door of the restaurant, and an elegant cat at his feet.
"Meow~"
The graceful cat's figure was already a little old, but it still walked to Xia Chen with elegant steps and rubbed his calf affectionately.
Xia Chen squatted down happily, picked up the big cat and started stroking it. His skillful technique made the elegant cat twist its body with enjoyment.
Uncle Tai, who was leisurely basking in the sun on the recliner, opened his eyes and was very surprised, "Oh, our champion is back?"
Xia Chen couldn't laugh or cry, "Why did you know so quickly?"
Uncle Tai smiled and turned on the radio next to the recliner, and news broadcasts came from it.
"Yesterday, Xia Chen, a well-known elf researcher and young trainer in our city, defeated the red player with a score of 3:0 in the final of the 73rd Donghuang Young Trainer Competition held in Funan City and won the championship.
It is reported that he is the youngest champion in the event, at 17 years and 9 months, a full year and a half behind the second place winner."
Uncle Tai pressed the switch and the sound suddenly stopped.
Xia Chen clicked his tongue with some regret, he hadn't heard enough yet.
"This news has been broadcast since last night, and my ears are almost getting calluses!"
Uncle Tai stood up, stretched out, and asked, "You just came back, why don't you come over for lunch?"
Putting down Elegant Cat, Xia Chen nodded with a smile, then pointed at Sirona who was quietly looking at the street scene with pink walls and black tiles beside him, and said: "My friend came to Zhijiang to play, there are two of us, ten elves, you and the devil
Qiang Doll will fry four or five dishes randomly, and then make some more braised food."
Uncle Tai nodded obligingly, and suddenly asked meaningfully: "Oh, by the way, isn't Mingyi going to school in Patiya? Is she coming back for the New Year?"
Xia Chen coughed slightly and replied: "I asked her yesterday, and she said that she has heavy studies there and won't come back until the next year."
"oh--"
Uncle Tai dragged out the word "oh" for a long time, then waved his hand and said: "I understand, you and your friends can go to the box first, and I will cook."
After patting Xia Chen heavily on the shoulder, Uncle Tai went into the kitchen.
…………
After scooping a full spoonful of crystal clear shrimps with a faint scent of tea and putting them into her mouth, Sirona sighed with satisfaction.
"Oh, this shrimp is delicious."
Xia Chen smiled and said: "Uncle Tai was the chef of Hesonglou before he retired. This is a unique skill. I learned all my Jiang cuisine from him. Try this. It won't taste good when it's cold."
He pointed at the fried eel snaps. Because of its appearance, this thing was a little shabby, so Sirona hadn't touched a bite since it was served on the table.
Sirona raised her chopsticks and looked at this shiny brown-black dish, which was made up of strips of fried stuff. She didn't know if it could be called a dish, and her expression was a little hesitant.
After thinking about it, Sirona decided to let the elf try it first. She first looked at Roseredo and said, "You want to try it first?"
Rose Leiduo shook his head crazily, "Leiduo. (I am a grass elf, I don't eat meat)"
As she spoke, she stretched out her vines to pick up a piece of frozen sheep cake, dipped it in vinegar and put it in her mouth to calm her shock.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Xia Chen rolled his eyes, as for that.
He scooped a spoonful of it, put it in a bowl and ate it, while explaining: "This is eel shreds, oh. It doesn't seem to be included in the ingredients in the Sinnoh region, but it's really edible."
Seeing Xia Chen eating with gusto, Sirona was shaken. Xia Chen was trustworthy in terms of eating.
So, she tried to put a small piece of shredded eel into her mouth. Instantly, a strong salty-sweet aroma accompanied by the tender eel meat exploded on her taste buds. The oily but not greasy texture made Sirona subconsciously
He swallowed the eel silk into his mouth.
"It's okay."
Sirona commented incoherently, but couldn't help but scoop up a spoonful of it with a spoon and put it into her mouth, and then made a strange sound.
Looking at the blushing Sirona, Xia Chen smiled in his heart.
Tsundere has withdrawn from the environment!
But if it’s Sister Zhulan,
…………
At two o'clock in the afternoon, the first lunch back to Zhijiang was a complete success. In fact, Xia Chen didn't care. The main thing was that the guests were satisfied enough.
Amidst the greetings from the neighbors, Xia Chen and Sirona walked slowly on the not-so-wide street.
Walking on the ancient path paved with blue bricks, Sirona held a bowl of rice dumplings with fermented rice in her hand and said with emotion: "It's really strange here. When I left the airport, I thought Zhijiang was completely a developed and advanced modern city."
Xia Chen shrugged, "Innovating without forgetting the roots is a characteristic of Zhijiang. You see, if you just walk around the city like a tourist, you won't have such a profound understanding, right?"
"makes sense"
Sirona swallowed a mouthful of meatballs and suddenly turned to look at Xia Chen, "If I'm not a tourist, then what am I?"
Xia Chen paused and scratched his head unnaturally, "Come to visit my good friend?"
Wiping off the wine stained on her lips with a tissue, Sirona chuckled and nodded.
The atmosphere was a little subtle. Xia Chen rolled his eyes and raised his hand to point to a corner of the alley.
"Xianbu, did I pick you up here?"
"Buy?"
Xianbu, who was dismissing the wild cats who came around out of curiosity, looked back at Xia Chen and used me to change the subject?
Ha, man.
However, although the method was low-level, the topic really aroused the curiosity of Miss Sirona. She was surprised and said: "This is how you and Senbu actually know each other?"
A smile of success appeared at the corner of Xia Chen's lips, and then he talked about the past with a nostalgic tone, "I have never thought about the circumstances in which I met my original spirit. It was a morning after the rain."
Xianbu on the side also quietly pricked up his ears. As a witness, he listened to Xia Chen tell this story that only belonged to the two of them, but from time to time he still kept his mouth shut and tried to tamper with history.
"Bu Yi! (Obviously it was you who begged me to be your initial elf at that time!)"
"Buyi! (You are weak and pitiful, but you can eat!)"
"..."
…………
As expected, elves are everywhere in the house and overgrown with weeds. The training equipment that was once bought for Senbu at a high price in the yard has become a nest for wild elves.
As for why Xia Chen can see that equipment made of plastic and metal can still grow grass?
And it’s still dry and soft hay.
Shushu, I have already occupied Xia Chen's house.
I just don’t know if it’s Rattata or another Rat Pokémon that’s occupying this place.
Xia Chen wasn't too angry either. While enjoying the fun brought to him by the spirit world full of vitality and infinite possibilities, he was bound to have to endure minor troubles from time to time.
For example, this is the current situation.
Sirona on the side looked at the deserted yard and asked: "Didn't you leave the elf to look after the house?"
Sirona, who is digging in the dirt, competing or dealing with league affairs all year round, also often experiences this situation.
However, her house is much larger, and she leaves two elves to look after the house every time she goes out. Wild elves will definitely not be so bold as to build a nest next to the house.
Xia Chen was speechless, "I only have five elves so far. No, six elves can't even make up a team. Who can be left to look after the house?"
Although he said this, Xia Chen felt in his heart that this proposal was a good one.
Looking at the exquisite and warm little nest in the training equipment, he thought of a way to get the best of both worlds.
Xia Chen said calmly: "Xianbu, go and find them."
"Bu Yi!" Xian Bu responded.
Of course, this kind of thing was not difficult for Senbu, a little expert in reconnaissance. The yard was not big, so she quickly found two big and two small mice in a bush, a total of four shivering white mice.
"Hey, it turns out to be a family of rats?"
Xia Chen was very surprised when he saw the unexpected situation.
A family of rats is a very common elf in the Padia region, probably as common as Pikachu in the countryside of Kanto region.
However, the Padia region was far away from the Donghuang region, and he rarely encountered elves from the Padia region, let alone wild elves, during battles.
But less does not mean none. In this era of convenient transportation and increasingly frequent exchanges, it is reasonable for a few rats to appear across the ocean.
A family of rats must have been hiding here when Xia Chen entered the yard. It seemed like they knew they were doves occupying a magpie's nest.
Perhaps it was out of a moral conscience that had not yet been extinguished, or maybe it was due to feeling the aura of Lucario following Sirona.
In short, they hurriedly hid in the grass before Xia Chen came in, and were caught by Xian Bu.
…………
"Are you very brave? You dare to occupy my house."
Xia Chen squatted on the ground, interrogating these daring rats.
The two larger ones, probably the parents, stood in front of Lucario's invisible aura and bravely stood in front of them, looking as if they wanted to kill or behead them as you pleased.
However, the slightly trembling round ears on the top of their heads still revealed the fear and panic in their hearts.
Xia Chen snorted and said, "What should we do? Do you go or should I go?"
Two rats in a family looked at each other, and both saw the gloom and frustration in each other's eyes.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It obviously took so long to find this place, and it also took a lot of effort to defeat countless local Ratadas.
Just after building the nest, it has not lived a good life for a few days before it is about to be driven away by its original owner.
Shushu, I am so unwilling!
But what can you do if you don't give in? This is indeed someone else's home, and more importantly.
Looking up and down at the elves next to the human, Shushu knew that none of them could be offended by him.
That Lucario was able to make himself lose the idea of fighting and resisting just by relying on his aura.
They didn't rush up to fight him off, but discussed it in a good manner for a while, which was already a great deal of face.
After thinking about it, life is more important than the newly built nest.
The two rats had no choice but to turn around, packed up their bags, and prepared to leave their homes again.
"However, if you are willing to cooperate with me, it is not impossible to stay here."
But before they even walked out of the yard gate, the man's devilish voice seducing rats and mice could be heard behind them.
"squeak?"
The despairing eyes of the mice reappeared, and the sense of darkness gave them renewed hope.
Little did they know that Xia Chen had already played with Shushu's heart.
Sirona on the side saw the whole process of Xia Chen playing with the rat's heart, with a thoughtful look on her face.
She felt that she needed to re-examine this big boy with a sunny and cheerful appearance.
…………
After some communication (fooling), Xia Chen signed an unequal rental agreement with a family of rats.
Party A's Xia Chen needs to provide a place for Party B's family of rats, which is where they are now.
As for Party B's family, they need to complete a series of tasks such as housekeeping, yard maintenance, and regular weed removal when Xia Chen is not at home as rent. At the same time, they are not allowed to cause any damage to Xia Chen's house.
Xia Chen officially harvested four house rats by pressing the signature with Shushu's round palm.
However, Xia Chen was not a devil after all. Although he did not formally conquer a family of rats, he decided to give them some preferential treatment that only his own elves could enjoy.
"Help us clean up and take you to dinner together. How about this deal?"
Xia Chen remembers that a family of mice has a very powerful exclusive move. After using it, it can not only increase the attack and speed, but also clear away the crystals, invisible rocks, sticky nets and other moves on the field.
It can be called an enhanced version of Dance of the Dragons.
But this is not the key. The key is that the name of this move is [Cleaning].
There should be no problem with using such a powerful move to do housework, right?
A family of rats also knows what "people have to bow their heads when they are under the eaves". The two rats looked at each other and accepted the deal.
Facts have proved that the mouse-specific move [general cleaning] is indeed very effective.
The house that had not been occupied for half a year was full of dust. Xia Chen originally planned to let Menas wash it lightly with water.
But with the help of Shushu, everything he touched was as clean as new, just like four biological versions of vacuum cleaners.
Xia Chen was so happy that he added a clause in the agreement that Party B's family must do a general cleaning at home every month.
Shushu Zhizhi protested against Party A Xia Chen’s endless prostitution and exploitation, and applied for labor arbitration to the neutral party Sirona.
Under Sister Zhulan's eyes, Xia Chen had no choice but to propose a plan to put several boxes of energy cubes at home as a reward every time before leaving home.
“Really, the landlord’s family doesn’t have any food left.”
Xia Chen, who has at least tens of millions in savings on his card, complained.
Finally, with the help of many elves, Xia Chen's home became bright and clean again before the sun set.
…………
After chatting with Sirona for a while, Xia Chen went out to buy groceries after getting enough rest.
Perhaps it was because the local news bombarded the news of Xia Chen's championship, but the neighbors were really enthusiastic today.
This also confirms one thing, the battle between elves is the most popular national activity in the world - this effect was completely absent when the two previous research results of Menas and Senbu were released.
Although each of these two studies is singled out, their influence and value are much higher than that of the winner of a youth competition.
But there is no way, those studies, papers, etc. are a bit far away from these uncles and aunts.
As for the Donghuang Champion, he knew as soon as he heard that this kid Xia Chen was going to be promising!
Although this champion is only the youth version.
After wandering around the vegetable market and picking up countless smoked fish, bacon, snacks and dumplings made by neighbors, Xia Chen returned home with a full load.
Dinner is still Emoto cuisine. After a long journey, it’s nice to have something light and comfortable.
Second, seeing that Sirona was quite satisfied with what she had eaten at noon, she had to make arrangements for the guests.
Xia Chen was in a hurry at noon, so he didn't ask Uncle Tai to cook too much. He had enough time in the evening, so he planned to show off his skills and try to make Sirona's belly bigger after the meal.
Biluo shrimp, mother oil boat duck, squirrel mandarin fish, crab powder and tofu. A table full of fragrant local dishes were served one after another, and they were all gone in less than half an hour.
It was already after seven o'clock after dinner.
Although the elves were tired from the journey and had to clean up all afternoon, although the physical strength of the elves was certainly nothing, they were still a little tired mentally.
Except for the cook Rose Redo who was washing dishes in the kitchen, the other elves started their own nightlife.
The two Minas went to the swimming pool on the top floor to soak in the water and bask in the moonlight.
The eldest sister of the family, Xianbu, took her younger brother Doron Mecia to teach the new members of the family the rules in the living room.
Lucario looked at Zoroark, who had not seen him for a long time and had changed his appearance, and took her to the courtyard, maybe to have a sparring match.
Gardevoir placed a plate of fruit that had just been cut in the kitchen on the coffee table, and then ran to take care of the sticky baby that was still in the egg and had not hatched yet.
on the sofa.
Sirona stretched out, showing off her beautiful figure, "Do you have a training room at home?"
Xia Chen glanced at her still flat belly and shook his head regretfully, "No, how can there be such a place in an old house? Let's rest for a few days and give the biting land sharks a few days off."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Sirona frowned, she didn't want to force Biting Land Shark and them to train more, mainly because of herself. If she doesn't exercise, she will gain several kilograms when she returns to Sinnoh.
But she was too embarrassed to say this to Xia Chen. After thinking about it, she still didn't say it.
However, Sirona's words could not be hidden from the superpower Xia Chen. He said helplessly: "There is an elf training hall nearby. If you really want to train, go there, but I don't know about the training there.
Can the equipment withstand the destruction of champion-level elves?"
"Forget it, it's okay."
Sirona decided not to worry about these illusory things and just indulge in these few days.
Glancing at the conspicuous game console in the living room, she suddenly felt a little itchy.
She raised her eyebrows and asked, "How many elven duels are there?"
Xia Chen responded happily: "I'm happy to accompany you."
Thus, a small after-dinner exercise for homeboys and homegirls began.
…………
"Don't you plan to change your house? Isn't this place a bit small?"
Sirona asked casually as Zoroark, the ghost who controlled the speed of light update in the game, played a set of silky small combos.
Xia Chen used Duolong Baruto to block awkwardly, while replying: "I don't have this idea for the time being, let's talk about it later, and my idea is to get it done in one step. If you want to change it, just change it to a bigger one."
Sirona asked: "Hasn't your company selling energy cubes been open for half a year? Isn't the money earned enough to replace it?"
Xia Chen frowned, "Open a new factory, expand production lines, manage relationships, invest in advertising, invest in channels, and expand the market. It costs money everywhere, but the financial report will be out after the year. Let's see how much we earned in the past six months."
Sirona smiled and joked: "You are very clear-cut. You are worthy of being a young and promising entrepreneur~"
"Every week in the video conference, they are complaining to me about this. I have already heard the cocoon. I just want to lie down and eat the dividends. I'll go. Why is this ghost Zoroark so powerful? Can the designer do balance?
!”
"Haha, you have the nerve to say that you have turned the demon into a pot with such a powerful attack from Dragon Baruto."
