Chapter 132 Harvest, Golden Wheat Fields and Family Portrait (4K)
The next day.
Unknowingly, more than a month has passed since Luo Mu planted new seeds and started to plant crops.
It is now mid-February, and there is less than half a month left before the spring break of Orange Academy. In two days, it will be the day agreed by Luo Mu and Ye Ci, when he will go to Frost Mountain to start the mission against Hunter J.
Some crops have matured, and the crops harvested along with all the Pokémon have filled the warehouse built by the Haoli Engineering Team.
A few days ago, the Haoli Engineering Team had completed the replacement of fences in all areas of the ranch. The newly built fences not only bring a sense of security to the weaker Pokémon in the farm, but also protect the wild Pokémon outside that do not have the conditions to climb over the fences.
After paying the final payment to the Haoli Engineering Team, Luo Mu, who still has some money left, has begun to consider how to expand the farm in the future.
Excluding the 80,000 Alliance Coins spent on building the fence, counting the more than 123,000 Alliance Coins sold for the white fluffy cotton wool and the 50,000 Alliance Coins for the teacher's salary, plus his previous savings, he still has more than 100,000 Alliance Coins in his hand.
The first choice is fish fry. Now only Swampert, Mosquito, Mosquito Tadpoles and Haxorus live in Thunder Lake, and there is still a large area vacant.
Not to mention that there are many Pokémon that can eat fish in the farm, Luo Mu himself occasionally wants to drink crucian carp soup and eat some barbecued fish.
At that time, a fishing net will be used in the middle of the lake to demarcate the area where the fish fry live and the area where the Pokémon live, so that it will be convenient for fishing and will not have much impact on the Pokémon.
Then, based on the small villa, a house for the Pokémon to live in will be expanded nearby.
As the number of Pokémon in the farm gradually increases, the small villa has gradually become crowded.
The area near the fireplace carpet in the living room on the first floor is occupied by Moltres. Caterpie occasionally sleeps with it and occasionally runs into Luo Mu's room.
Four flower pots are lined up on the balcony on the third floor, and Bai Pengpeng and Aolinyu live in them.
The sleeping positions of Hualiao Huanhuan and Mahua Dog are not fixed, they can sleep anywhere in the house. Xiaoxiannai usually sleeps in the cupboard, but the Pokémon of the main team occupy a large area.
Cang Yan Blade Ghost has its own room. Although Monarch Snake likes to run to Luo Mu's room to sleep, it also has its own room. Occasionally, Monarch Snake will go back to sleep when it is upset.
Mimikyuu is either in the quilt or on the head of the bed. Roentgen Cat likes to lie on the side of Luo Mu's bed to sleep, and occasionally he will give his position to Dragonite and run to the door to sleep.
It's okay now. When more Pokémon are added to the farm later, or even some Pokémon in the farm suddenly have elf eggs, the house will definitely not be enough.
In order to prevent problems before they happen, the huts where Pokémon live must be arranged.
Farming area.
Luo Mu looked at the golden "ocean" in front of him, and the Caterpie and Mahua Dog running happily in it, and a smile appeared on his face.
Following other crops, wheat has also fully matured under the scent of the Mahua Dog. As long as the harvest is completed, it can be made into flour through various processes, or wheat wine can be brewed with wheat malts germinated from wheat seeds.
There are actually many places that can help with these processes, but this time Luo Mu plans to try it himself.
Although he has reached the age of drinking, he actually has no interest in alcohol. He wants to brew some wine just because he is curious about its taste.
Luo Mu plans to grind the harvested wheat into flour to make various pasta.
After inspecting the wheat field, Luo Mu came to the area where the fruit tree was located. The once small sapling has now grown luxuriantly. Under the careful care of several grass-type Pokémon, it will not be long before it grows fruit.
"Okay!"
Next, Luo Mu wanted to continue to look at the flower field, but the messenger bird in the sky suddenly flew over and danced to Luo Mu to tell him that there was a guest at the door of the farm. The Roentgen cat asked it to find Luo Mu.
Luo Mu was stunned, and suddenly remembered that he and Sha Li seemed to have agreed to come to her house to take photos today?
Since the other party has won awards in photography, his photography skills must be good. Anyway, he doesn't know any photographers, so he might as well ask Sha Li to take photos for him.
The other party seems to be very reliable.
"Wow, is this Luo Mu's farm? It looks quite big~"
Sha Li picked up the camera and could clearly see the farm that had just been harvested through the lens. There was also a golden wheat field not far away, which made Sha Li's hands itch.
Speaking of which, she usually photographs Pokémon or characters, and rarely photographs such innocent rural customs. In other words, maybe she can find the inspiration she has lost for a long time in Luo Mu's farm?
"Meow~"
After finding a messenger bird that happened to be nearby to call Luo Mu over, the Roentgen cat came back with a full-fledged pace. The way it held its head high was more like a battle-hardened lion than a cat. It lost its sharp appearance and its momentum was completely restrained.
This made Sha Li's eyes light up slightly, and she directly aimed at the Xenon cat and pressed the shutter.
She rarely saw Xenon cats with such temperament in the Sinnoh region!
It was completely different from the sharp Xenon cat that she had helped the Sinnoh Alliance shoot. In terms of Sha Li's own aesthetics, the momentum of the Xenon cat in front of her was undoubtedly on her point!
Unable to control her fingers from pressing the shutter button, Sha Li couldn't help but wonder, whether it was the dragon or the Roentgen cat in front of her, was Luo Mu really an ordinary farmer?
At this time, Luo Mu, who was called by the messenger bird, also rushed to the main entrance of the farm. He was speechless when he saw Shali posing and frantically taking pictures of the Roentgen cat lying calmly on the spot.
How much she loves taking pictures, don’t run out of memory in a moment.
But Shali seemed to have awakened the superpower of mind-reading. Seeing Luo Mu's speechless expression, she took out a large labeled memory card from the bag on her waist and proudly introduced her king's treasure trove: "As a A qualified photographer must have a reserve of memory cards! ”
"Oh, by the way, I also prepared a battery that can last for half a year even if I get lost in the wild."
Luo Mu: "."
Okay, just be happy.
"A family photo?" Sha Li followed Luo Mu into the farm, her hands holding the camera slightly lowered, "Although this is a field I have never tried before, I have also studied related knowledge before, but don't get too carried away. How much are you looking forward to?”
"After all, I'm at a low ebb right now."
Shali was confident that she could capture a perfect composition, but she couldn't guarantee whether the photos were smart and whether the characteristics of each Pokémon were vividly expressed.
Luo Mu, an outsider, doesn't understand why Sha Li is so obsessed with her own low point and the quality of photography. Generally speaking, family photos are not all about taking a warm atmosphere and reasonably including everyone in one photo. Scope?
But Sha Li seemed to be obsessed with something else, and Luo Mu, who was not so close to her, did not ask rashly.
Taking Shali towards the small bungalow, the Roentgen cat and the messenger bird followed Luo Mu. Shali curiously looked at the surrounding environment along the way.
Only when you actually enter the farm will you realize that the area here is quite large.
After retracting her distracted attention, Sha Li asked, "As for the family photo, have you thought about where to take it?"
"Currently, we plan to shoot in front of the house." Luo Mu kept walking, but his expression was a little stiff.
To be honest, he hadn't really thought about where to take the family photo, and his answer was casually made out of desperation.
Before arriving at the small bungalow, Shali took a look at the old house, touched his chin and said, "Let me ask you, how many Pokémon do you have, how many people are there on the farm, and how many people do you want to take a photo with?" How many individuals are squeezed in?”
Luo Mu was asked this question. To be honest, he had not seriously counted the specific number of Pokémon in the farm.
The main six Pokémon, Katy, and White Puff. When the Pokémon are added up, including Flamebird, there are a total of twenty-six Pokémon!
"Well, there are twenty-six Pokémon, but only me as a human."
Luo Mu silently calculated it several times in his mind before speaking the number out loud.
"You're pretty good alone." Sha Li looked at Luo Mu with a hint of respect in her eyes. She was almost burning out just taking care of the owl, Ye Yibu and Kati dog. Luo Mu also has to take care of more than twenty different Pokémon.
However, it would be easier to handle with specific numbers. Shali thought for a moment and said, "Can you take me to your farm and meet your Pokémon?"
"I think there is a better place to take a family photo in this farm. This house should have had a previous owner. This is just my humble opinion. Family photos should be created between you and Pokémon. Is it meaningful to shoot the memories there?”
Luo Mu was silent for a moment, and while marveling at Sha Li's observation skills, he nodded slightly: "I understand, let's start visiting from home first."
"You can see the strong atmosphere of life. Although it is old, it is very warm."
Walking on the floor, Shali's camera kept moving. On the first floor there was a small nest where unknown Pokémon lived, and all kinds of old but well-cleaned furniture.
I don't know if it was her imagination, but something seemed to be moving in the cupboards outside the room that seemed to be the kitchen.
The camera continued to move, and Shali looked at the other side, which was the living room. She didn't know if it was her imagination, but she felt a steady stream of warmth from there.
The weather has obviously gotten warmer, so why is the fireplace still on?
Or is the fire-type Pokémon resting in the living room?
"Can I go over there and have a look? There are your Pokémon there, right?"
Shali asked.
Luo Mu followed her line of sight and saw that the Pokémon in the living room was probably a Flame Bird.
After all, Shali has been invited to take a family photo for him. Although the Flame Bird eats and drinks for free and does not do any serious work, it can still be regarded as the adoptive parent of Kati Dog? Be sure to bring the other person with you when taking photos, because Shali will also know about the existence of the Flame Bird by then.
Luo Mu reminded: "No problem, but you have to be careful. That Pokémon's temper is a little hot."
Shali nodded. She also knew that fire Pokémon usually have hot tempers, as long as they don't offend the other party.
Thinking like this, Sha Li made her steps lighter, slowly came to the living room, and then froze on the spot.
What did she see?
The empty fireplace inside was not burning, but the flames on the Pokémon resting on the carpet were bright and surging, and the crown of flames like a work of art revealed the identity of this Pokémon.
The legendary divine bird, the divine bird that brought spring to the Snow Country, the origin of the sacred fire in the Kanto region - Moltres.
The orange flames burning on the wings moved with the breathing of Moltres, but Shali held her breath and dared not breathe.
At this time, her thoughts were already a mess. Even though she was from the Sinnoh region, she had heard the legend of Moltres, which was respected in the Kanto region. However, the living legend lived safely on the farm of Luo Mu, who claimed to be an ordinary farmer.
Shali felt that her worldview was about to collapse.
She looked at Luo Mu in horror, and after receiving the other party's eye signal, Shali swallowed her saliva and carefully left the living room.
Coming to the second floor, Shali covered her chest and felt her heartbeat had not yet calmed down. Before she could express her doubts, Luo Mu explained: "Growlithe was hatched by Moltres. Now it temporarily lives in the farm. Don't be too stressed."
"Is that the case?" Shali widened her eyes. Could it be that Moltres was unexpectedly kind-hearted, so it helped hatch Growlithe?
She breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I was scared to death. I didn't expect that the legendary bird would be in your farm. It might cause a sensation in the Kanto region!"
The legendary Pokémon appeared in the farm, and novels would not write like this!
Luo Mu knew that Shali's understanding of Moltres was a little bit biased, but he didn't mean to correct it. He smiled and said: "Then let's continue the tour."
Shali nodded: "Okay."
Next, Luo Mu took Shali to visit the entire small house, met several Pokémon staying in the room, and took a large group of Pokémon to the farming area, lake area and pasture area, and finally gathered all the Pokémon on the farm together.
Along the way, Shali witnessed the Thunder Lake where Haxorus and Swampert lived, the vast pasture area with Mud Horse and Sprouting Deer, and the farming area with various crops, and the compound green grass field used by Flower Therapy Ring and White Pomfret, which was like a miracle.
Finally, Shali stopped and fell into deep thought.
Now she has three options in mind.
The pasture area with vast green grass, the Thunder Lake with excellent water quality that can be photographed with Pokémon in the water, and the golden wheat field full of unharvested wheat.
Originally, she heard that Luo Mu had prepared a flower field and wanted to shoot there, but unfortunately the flower field has not bloomed yet, so Shali had to give up this idea.
After a fierce ideological struggle, Shali made a decision: "Let's go to the wheat field. The harvest of wheat fields and the Pokémon who built this farm, I think it is the most suitable option!"
Along the way, Shali also heard from Luo Mu about the contribution of Pokémon to the farm, and her intuition told her that it was the most suitable choice.
Luo Mu followed the choice of the professionals and immediately brought all the Pokémon to the wheat field.
The sun was shining, and the wheat field was shining like a golden ocean. The mature wheat ears swayed gently in the breeze, showing a golden luster.
Luo Mu stood in front of the wheat field with many Pokémon. Roentgen and Monarch occupied the left and right sides respectively, and Mimikyu and Little Fairy stood on Luo Mu's shoulders. And Luo Mu held the messenger bird that was about to set off in his arms.
The small and exquisite white fluffy, Orinyu, Mahua, Mosquito and Mosquito Tadpoles and Caterpie stood in the front.
The Hackrons and Dragonite soared overhead, and the Blade of the Blue Blade and the Swampert guarded everyone on the left and right edges like knights.
The two Bud Deer and the Heavy Mud Horse were very conspicuous even if they stood at the back, and the Moltres also flew over the wheat field very respectfully.
Each Pokémon has a wreath carefully woven by Huahe Huanhuan on its head, and the wreath on Luo Mu's head is made by Huahe Huanhuan herself.
Each Pokémon's face is full of smiles. They are enjoying their first family photo and are looking forward to it.
Seeing such a warm scene, a smile unconsciously climbs on Shali's delicate cheeks. She thinks that today she may be able to take a photo that will give her a new life.
"Say it with me, eggplant~"
"Eggplant~"
As the shutter sounded, time was frozen here, and memories turned into photos and stored in the camera.
