Therefore, Gongsun Yan was very envious of the enormous energy contained in the Millennium Comet, but he was a man who knew his own limitations. This level of energy was definitely not something he could get his hands on at the moment.
In addition, at present, the only one who can control this power is Jirachi, and studying the legendary Pokémon has always been the most troublesome thing. Not to mention whether the other party will cooperate with the research, current technology does not have such level of black technology.
Especially for a Pokémon like Jirachi that only wakes up for seven days in a thousand years, there is very little information handed down about it. It will fall asleep after seven days. It is definitely impossible to research something in just seven days using conventional methods.
However, if you want to speed up the research, you must cause harm to Jirachi, which conflicts with Gongsun Yan's principles, and Gongsun Yan will definitely not make this choice.
But watching the power of the comet drifting away from him, Gongsun Yan felt really heartbroken.
This kind of opportunity to greatly improve the strength of your own Pokémon is not always available! If you miss this opportunity, you may not be able to find it again.
It was as if there were two villains fighting in Gongsun Yan's heart. One wanted him to stick to his original intention, while the other was constantly tempting him, causing some thoughts that shouldn't appear to emerge in his mind.
Gongsun Yan, who was constantly influenced by these two villains, stayed on the side for a long time until everyone fell asleep. Then Gongsun Yan silently got up, glanced at Jirachi lying next to Xiaosheng, sighed silently, and walked out of the tent.
However, Gongsun Yan, who walked out of the tent, did not see it. The next second after he left, Jirachi, who was originally asleep, opened her eyes, stared at Gongsun Yan's back, showed a happy smile, and then lay back next to Xiaosheng, changing her lying position. In fact, she did not need to sleep at all, after all, she had slept for a thousand years, but she still liked this feeling.
"Come out, everyone!" Gongsun Yan walked to a farther place and released all the Pokémon in his hands.
"?" The giant swamp monsters were very surprised. They didn't know why Gongsun Yan let them out so late at night.
Gongsun Yan didn't say anything much. He leaned over, picked up the tiny Pikachu, and sat cross-legged among the Pokémon. Swampert and the others didn't react either, but also sat down around Gongsun Yan.
"Everyone, let's work hard in the future. Even without those messy things, we can definitely reach the top." After playing with Pikachu a few times, Gongsun Yan suddenly said something without any context. Although Swampert and the others didn't understand what happened, they also responded to Gongsun Yan.
"? Gardevoir, what's with that expression on your face?" Gongsun Yan was originally looking at his Pokémon with satisfaction, but he suddenly discovered that Gardevoir also had a satisfied expression, which made him a little confused.
"Sha~ (It's nothing, you are indeed a gentle and kind person.)" Gardevoir looked at Gongsun Yan with a touching smile, and the charming voice sounded from Gongsun Yan's heart.
Gongsun Yan inexplicably got a good guy card.
Chapter 191 I Reflect on Myself Three Times a Day
"? How can this be considered a good guy card? I don't want it!" Gongsun Yan waved his hands quickly. He had received enough good guy cards in his previous life, and he didn't want any more in this life.
"Hehe!" A childlike voice suddenly sounded from the bottom of Gongsun Yan's heart. Gongsun Yan looked towards the tent almost instantly, only to see a yellow figure flash by at the door of the tent.
"So you knew it a long time ago, Gardevoir, you too, right?" Gongsun Yan couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile as he didn't know that his thoughts were being seen by these two psychic Pokémon.
Seeing this, Gardevoir also floated behind Gongsun Yan, constantly rubbing his shoulders, and comforting Gongsun Yan in a very gentle voice.
With Gardevoir's careful comfort, Gongsun Yan immediately returned to normal. In fact, it was mainly because Gardevoir's voice was too seductive. That kind of charming and mature voice was dancing wildly on Gongsun Yan's nerves, making Gongsun Yan, the innocent little boy, unable to control himself at all.
"Hehe, Gardevoir, stop it. I don't care anymore." Gongsun Yan broke free from Gardevoir's hands with a flushed face, pretending to be very serious and asked Jirachi in his heart.
After seeing Gongsun Yan's expression, Gardevoir covered her mouth and laughed. She loved teasing her trainer like this the most. It was not easy to tell from such a young look.
"Jirachi, um, I had some bad thoughts before, I'm sorry." Gongsun Yan apologized to Jirachi in his heart with full of apology.
He felt ashamed of his previous wavering mind. Good and evil are always everyone's own choice. Any rhetoric and excuses of force majeure are just a cover-up for weakness and depravity.
Gongsun Yan originally thought that his will was strong enough, but the result slapped him in the face.
"No need, you didn't do anything anyway." Jirachi didn't care about Gongsun Yan's previous bad thoughts at all. After all, she had seen such things in her previous years.
Although she did not wake up for seven days in a thousand years, and would forget everything that happened in the previous seven days after waking up, as a legendary Pokémon, Jirachi still knew how to avoid danger and seek good fortune.
"Okay, I'm going to sleep first. You can think about what wish you want to make later. The energy of the Millennium Comet this time is unexpectedly high. I can definitely fulfill one wish for each of you."
Jirachi's innocent voice echoed in Gongsun Yan's heart. Gongsun Yan felt as if a Jirachi with a third eye patting his belly appeared in front of him.
The thing on Jirachi's belly is her third eye, which is also the true eye. It only appears under special circumstances and is the eye that can fulfill wishes.
Gongsun Yan was a little confused when he heard this. He originally thought that Jirachi could only fulfill one wish, and this wish would naturally fall on Xiaosheng. Gongsun Yan had no intention of competing with the child.
The reason why Xiao Sheng's wish was not fulfilled in the movie was mainly because a lot of energy was spent on creating the pirated Groudon and destroying it, and he was no longer able to fulfill his wish.
Originally, Gongsun Yan was planning to protect Jirachi, and now he is even more certain of this. If Butler dares to attack, he will be killed directly and he must not be allowed to succeed.
Gongsun Yan, who had put his worries to rest, returned to the tent to rest. After waking up, he gathered everyone to exercise as usual. However, everyone was very careful not to wake up Jirachi and Xiaosheng.
After everyone finished their exercise, Xiaosheng also woke up. After everyone happily finished breakfast, Jirachi also pulled Xiaosheng aside to play.
Gongsun Yan and the others also accompanied them on the side, mainly because they were afraid that some ignorant people would come over and cause trouble. After all, there were quite a few idiots like this, and they were especially likely to appear in the theatrical version.
However, the whole morning passed peacefully. Xiaosheng and Jirachi had a lot of fun, and Gongsun Yan and the others also relaxed.
However, just when everyone was having lunch, two uninvited guests finally showed up. Yes, it was Butler and his beautiful assistant Diane.
When they came over, they saw Xiaosheng and Jirachi playing happily, and saw Gongsun Yan and others guarding nearby. They smiled and praised, "I didn't expect Jirachi to wake up so soon, and your companions and Jirachi are also having a lot of fun. You are indeed a pure-hearted person!"
"That's right. After all, most children are relatively innocent. Such personalities are more attractive to Pokémon. They are not like some adults, whose hearts are so dirty that people can't bear to look at them." Gongsun Yan said meaningfully.
However, Butler was not at all provoked by Gongsun Yan's words. He still maintained a hypocritical smile and said, "But from an emotional point of view, this is not a good thing. After all, Jirachi can only wake up for seven days every thousand years. Now one day has passed, and there are only six days left. The happier you are now, the more painful it will be when you leave."
"But this is life, isn't it?" Gongsun Yan retorted, "Isn't a person's life spent in constant separation? Separation is indeed painful, but people always have to learn to say goodbye. It is these separations that make people grow, isn't it?"
Parting is indeed painful, but if you are worried about parting and refuse to socialize with others, isn't that like avoiding the truth?
Fatalism has always been the heaviest knife. Every time it falls, it cuts a piece of flesh and blood in people's hearts. That feeling of powerlessness is a pain that makes people unable to breathe.
Gongsun Yan had never experienced the separation of life and death between relatives in his previous life. His grandparents and grandparents-in-law were in good health and none of their relatives had passed away. He should not have had any real feelings about this kind of emotion.
However, Gongsun Yan is a otaku. If he is a otaku, he should have something he likes. Gongsun Yan likes special effects and animation, and there are always many knives in these.
Whether it's the GUTS uniforms in Taiga's radio drama that were sent out using meteor technology and have been weathered for thousands of years as soon as they appeared, and the recording gun that only leaves noise, or the Grandma Wen who fell on a park bench in Ghost Boy.
These events left a "deep" impact on Gongsun Yan's heart, and even made him depressed at one point. He was unwilling to form ties with anyone around him for fear of pain.
But in the end, he figured it out and walked out of those logical dead loops. He was no longer afraid of those things. Seeing different scenery and meeting different people on the road of life is a very happy thing, isn't it? Why bother so much?
The train is moving forward. It doesn't matter where it is going. What matters is the scenery outside the window.
Chapter 192 Banquet
"Oh, I didn't expect that a little kid like you could be so open-minded. I really underestimated you." Butler said with a smile.
"Thank you for your compliment. I'm still a child. I've just seen some things and gained some insights." Gongsun Yan shook his head modestly, then turned to look at Jirachi and Xiaosheng standing beside him, muttering to himself.
"No matter what, as long as you don't regret it."
"what?"
"No, nothing, Mr. Butler. I wonder why you came to see us today?"
Gongsun Yan quickly changed the subject, not wanting to dwell too deeply on it. After all, he hated giving a philosophy lesson to a villain.
"Oh, it's like this. I'm also one of the discoverers of Jirachi. I want her to be exposed to more happy things in just seven days, so I want her to appear in my Pokémon magic show and let her come into contact with humans. What do you think?" Butler said.
"Well, it sounds quite tempting, okay." Gongsun Yan nodded and shouted to Xiaozhi and the others beside him, "Hey, there is work to do! Work and earn money!"
"Work? Where? Where?" Xiaozhi and the others came over quickly, but before they could ask what was going on, Gongsun Yan stuffed a bunch of things into their pockets and ran off to solicit customers.
However, they had no objection to this. After all, as a traveler, it is normal to work when you are out of money. Most trainers who travel work while traveling, and they will also take on some tasks on the official website of the league.
From small tasks like dredging a river to big tasks like going to a region to capture a specific Pokémon, in short, whatever is valuable can be done, and the Alliance is happy to let them help with some trivial matters.
Although Xiaozhi and his friends are not short of money, the experience of working is an important experience in life. Otherwise, the bonus Xiaozhi won in the league conference would be enough for them to travel.
In addition, Xiaozhi and his friends are good young people who are willing to help others, and they can learn new things, so there is no reason to refuse.
Everyone was having fun and playing around, and Jirachi's good looks attracted a large number of tourists. It was not until the evening when the tourists dispersed that the place finally became quiet.
However, before everyone could rest for a while, a shrill scream suddenly came from outside the tent. Before everyone could react, they saw a silver-white moon blade cutting through the tent, and a black shadow fell from the sky.
"Absol!"
Gongsun Yan recognized the true identity of the black shadow at a glance. It was Absol, known as the disaster beast.
After seeing that it was Absol, Gongsun Yan put back the Poké Ball he had taken out. He knew that this Absol was a friendly force and was here to protect Jirachi.
As Gongsun Yan expected, when Absol saw Jirachi, he used his whirlwind sword in front of everyone, separating them from Jirachi.
"Okay, don't worry, Absol is here to pick me up." Jirachi came out immediately to stop Absol's subsequent attack and expressed goodwill to everyone.
Everyone agreed with Jirachi's words, and put down the Poké Balls they were about to throw. The lightning flashing on Pikachu's cheeks also subsided temporarily. However, if Absol made any unusual movements, everyone would defeat it with thunder.
"Absol is here to take me back to Faunus." Jirachi said.
Although her mind was relatively immature and she had just awakened, she was a mythical Pokémon after all. She gradually recalled what happened a thousand years ago and also remembered what she should do.
"Fanes? Isn't this Fanes?" Xiaoyao also asked after hearing this sentence, and then looked at Gongsun Yan. After all, he seemed to know a lot of unpopular knowledge.
Gongsun Yan did not keep the secret and said directly: "This is indeed not Faen Si. A thousand years have passed and a lot has changed. Cities will move for various reasons, but Jirachi sleeping underground will not move. As for how to prove this, Jirachi should not be found here by you, right?"
Gongsun Yan turned to look at Butler who was standing beside him. Butler did not hide anything and said, "Yes, I found Jirachi on the Faunus Plateau, but I didn't expect that Absol would follow us."
"In short, if we just go to the Fanes Plateau, everything will be solved." Gongsun Yan said.
"I understand. I will give you the address. But after all, it was me who brought Jirachi out, so let me send Jirachi back as well." Butler nodded and said.
"No, no, just let us send them back. This place is not far from the Fanes Plateau, so we won't trouble Mr. Butler." Gongsun Yan refused. In fact, the road was not very short, but Gongsun Yan didn't want Butler to go with them. It would be bad if the other party did something small and caused trouble.
After hearing Gongsun Yan reject his request, the smile on Butler's face froze visibly, but he was a shrewd man after all, so he quickly pretended not to care and spoke.
"That's fine. I still have to perform here and have a lot of things to do during the temple fair, so I won't go with you. But let me treat you tonight as a farewell."
It would be a waste not to eat such a free meal, so Gongsun Yan naturally agreed. At worst, he could just test it to see if there was any drug in it.
At night, Butler set up a grand banquet, but because everyone present was a child, the wine was useless.
However, the food on the table was indeed very sumptuous. Although it was not as good as those in high-end restaurants, it tasted very good. Moreover, these dishes were all made by Butler without anyone else interfering.
Everyone's appetite was aroused when they saw such a large table of dishes, and even Gongsun Yan couldn't help but eat a few more bites.
Butler frequently asked everyone to eat, but he himself did not touch any food except drinking.
"Well, this dish tastes really good. It would be even better if there was nothing added to it." Gongsun Yan thought to himself.
After everyone had eaten their fill, a feeling of sleepiness began to rise in everyone's heart. At first, everyone tried to stay awake, but in the end, they all fell on the dining table and fell into a sound sleep.
Butler also smiled when he saw this scene, but he didn't notice that Gongsun Yan, who had fainted, also had a smile on his face.
Chapter 193 DNA Moves
Seeing that Gongsun Yan and others had fallen asleep, Butler smiled, stood up proudly, bowed to the people around him and said.
"I'm so sorry, everyone. I'm going to perform the greatest magic show in the world tonight. I need you to sleep for a while. I hope you can have a good dream. When you wake up, I will invite you to witness my great achievements. Then I will be written into the history books!"
Diane, who had left in the middle of dinner on the pretext of something, came back at this time, holding the sleeping Jirachi in her arms, and spoke with a look of worry on her face.
"Absol came all the way from Faunus just to bring Jirachi back. If we continue like this, something serious might happen."
"This is just a legend. Absol is just a Pokémon. Many trainers have captured Absol, and they didn't bring any disaster when they traveled around." Butler smiled indifferently.
Seeing Butler still insisting, Diane still had a worried look on her face, but she also knew that she couldn't persuade him at all. She just looked at Gongsun Yan and the others who had fallen asleep with concern.
"Okay, let's act. My long-cherished dream is about to come true. The great Groudon is about to reappear in the world!" Butler excitedly hugged Jirachi and ran out of the tent.
Diane sighed, looked at Gongsun Yan and others who had fainted nearby, and after hesitating for a while, she followed.
The two men came to the big stage where they had performed magic before. Butler pressed the magic wand he had been holding, and several machines with extremely strange shapes emerged from the ground and were set up on the stage where he had performed for the past two days.
Then Butler pressed another button, and another platform rose from the ground, and a special piece of rock rubble appeared in front of the two.
Butler asked Diane to place Jirachi on a mechanical platform, and then opened the top of the tent, revealing the bright starry sky.
"It's finally about to begin!" Butler's eyes lit up, and his voice became uncontrollably excited, even a little crazy.
"The day has finally come. I will prove that my theory is correct. It's you idiots who don't understand my great invention!" Butler roared in his heart.
When the machine was turned on and the ceremony was about to begin, before the machine was officially started, Jirachi, who was originally lying in the machine, suddenly woke up, a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he flashed out of the machine and took away Groudon's rock.
"What?! Who is it?" Butler, who felt that his dream was about to come true, could not accept all this. He looked angrily at the figure in front of him who was obviously not Jirachi.
"Hehe!" However, "Jirachi" ignored Butler's thoughts and made a face at Butler.
"Let me explain it to you!" Gongsun Yan's voice sounded from behind Butler.
When Butler heard the voice, his face turned pale and he looked behind him in panic. He found that Gongsun Yan and others who had fallen asleep were standing behind him, and Jirachi was also floating beside them.
"Shouldn't you be asleep? How is that possible!" Butler widened his eyes, totally unable to believe it.
"I have always been very wary of you, Mr. Butler. Do you think your little tricks can be hidden from me?" Gongsun Yan said with a smile.
"But you clearly ate those meals, how is that possible!" Butler said unwillingly.
"Oh, you mean those vegetables? Look what I have in my hand." Gongsun Yan took out a seed from his arms, showed it to Butler, and said, "This is the trouble seed released by my monarch snake. If you carry this seed, you won't want to sleep."
Butler's face suddenly became extremely ugly when he heard this, and he couldn't help but say: "Since you have always known it, why did you pretend to fall into my trap?"
"Oh? Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?" Gongsun Yan said to Butler with interest.
