Chapter 667 Yang Ming's Reasoning
Hearing this, Yang Ming's heart sank. The little Loli Aserola not only had a special identity, but was also their guide on this trip. Her sudden disappearance was undoubtedly bad news for Yang Ming.
However, Yang Ming was a man who had experienced many ups and downs after all. He suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and walked towards Xiao Juer with a calm expression.
"How's it going? Are you okay?"
Xiao Juer had just escaped from danger. Her whole body was weak due to the "mummy properties" of the coffin. For a moment, she didn't even have the strength to stand up.
"I'm sorry for getting you into trouble." Xiao Juer felt extremely regretful. She had thought that she could help Yang Ming by coming here, but she almost got herself into danger and ended up holding Yang Ming back.
Yang Ming didn't take it seriously: "How could that be? If it weren't for your Pokémon's help, I wouldn't have been able to expel that Lost Coffin so quickly."
"Until your body recovers, I will take care of you."
Yang Ming helped Xiaoju, who had lost her ability to move, picked her up and carried her on his shoulders.
"No, please don't do this, this position is very uncomfortable..." Xiao Juer protested in a low voice. She didn't want to be carried in such a strange position by a young man.
"Okay, I'll try a different position." Yang Ming could only hold Xiao Juer in a "princess hug" position, but fortunately, she had a very slim figure, so holding her like this did not affect Yang Ming's movement.
"Thunder Zebra, you will be the one to carry your trainer."
After much thought, Yang Ming still felt that the "princess hug" was not convenient for fighting, so he put Xiaojuer on the back of Thunder Zebra. In this way, Xiaojuer could follow him and he could also command her Pokémon to cooperate with him.
The two were on the second floor, searching for Acerola and collecting clues, chatting occasionally.
"I didn't expect that Miss Juer is actually my age. What a surprise! I thought you were older than me."
"...Are you implying that I'm old?"
"Haha, how could that be? I was clearly praising your maturity."
Although the two had known each other for a long time, they had nothing in common except Feng Lu. This encounter with danger gave them the opportunity to get to know each other.
"You know what? My parents are wealthy businessmen in Raven City. They originally wanted me to marry the young master of a big family in Hezhong in exchange for that family's support."
"Later, in order to escape this fate, I ran away from my family and wandered around Unova as an illegal resident. I suffered a lot during that time. Fortunately, I was picked up by Boss Ju from Hanba City. Boss Ju also has a daughter. Because of this, he took great care of me. Not only did he help me get an identity, he also funded my participation in that year's Hirano Conference."
"After I became the runner-up of that tournament, the champion, Mr. Adek, nominated me to become the leader of the Raven Gym. From then on, my parents never mentioned marriage to me again."
"But it doesn't matter anymore because I have cut ties with them."
"It's amazing. You are a strong woman who can fight for your freedom with your feet on the ground." Yang Ming praised sincerely.
In fact, isn't he the same? He climbed up step by step from the bottom of the Rockets team, just to take control of his own destiny and refuse to become a pawn of the big guys.
"What about you? I haven't heard about your past." Xiao Juer asked with interest.
Xiao Juer had always been very interested in this promising young man. As a supermodel, she had met many different people, with varying identities and personalities, but Yang Ming alone struck her as unique.
A feeling that only "people of the same kind" can have.
"Me? My parents are very ordinary, not rich, but they are very good to me. If possible, I would rather give up everything I have now and continue living with them..." When he said this, a trace of sadness flashed in Yang Ming's eyes. Even if he climbed to the top, he might not be able to see his parents in the other world again.
But in Xiao Juer's eyes, this had a completely different meaning: as a native, she had no idea about "time travel" and only thought that Yang Ming had to join the Rockets because his parents had died.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned your sad story..." Xiao Juer apologized softly, and at the same time, she felt more and more sympathy for Yang Ming in her heart: although her parents were annoying, they were still alive and well, and Yang Ming had a pair of parents who loved him! It was more painful to gain and then lose something than to start with nothing.
"No wonder this guy is so mature, it turns out his experience is even more difficult than mine..." Xiao Juer murmured to herself.
Yang Ming had no idea what Xiao Juer was thinking. At this moment, he was concentrating on investigating the entire floor.
…………
"Just as I expected, there is something fishy about this place."
After walking around, Yang Ming stopped at a wall with the "2F" sign on it.
He tore off the "2F" sign on the wall, revealing the "3F" pattern hidden underneath.
"This isn't actually the second floor, it's the third floor. We were completely caught from the beginning."
Xiao Juer's eyes widened. She had never imagined that they would be tricked by someone just because they happened to be capturing wild ghost Pokémon?!
"Remember the three Weepy Masks that attacked us when we were climbing the stairs? Actually, during that attack, a ghost Pokémon hiding in the shadows tampered with the stairs and sent us to the third floor."
Xiao Juer was suddenly startled, and a bone-chilling chill rose from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.
"You mean... there's a very powerful group of people deliberately ambushing us here?"
"Rather than being a human, it's more like a ghost Pokémon with extremely high command, able to command its 'little brothers' to deal with us in secret," Yang Ming said coldly. "I've consulted the classics of the Kanto region and know that there are very few special individuals in this world with extremely high command."
In fact, these ghost Pokémon are extremely cunning and very good at sneak attacks through walls. They are more powerful than many ghost Pokémon commanded by human trainers.
Among the masters recognized by Yang Ming, perhaps only Instructor Ghost Wolf has such ability. Other trainers' understanding of Ghost Pokémon has not reached this level.
"Then what should we do now?"
Xiao Juer suddenly felt at a loss. This strong girl wanted to seek support from a man for the first time after encountering a series of incredible supernatural events.
"No matter what, the second floor should be the key to breaking the deadlock. I plan to go there to rescue Acerola." Yang Ming said in a deep voice.
In fact, his heart was also beating fast, but in order to calm Xiao Juer's emotions, Yang Ming had to remain calm.
He knew that if the leader of a team lost his patience first, the entire team would collapse immediately.
"Palast, Swamp King, attack the ground together!"
With the two Pokémon's full-strength attack, a large hole was soon smashed into the floor of the third floor. The hole was pitch black, and no one knew how many enemies were lurking in the dark.
