After untying the ropes on Xiao Lan, Xiao Lan suddenly came up and said, "Lu Yuan, I think you can also try to participate in the Fighting Expert Tournament! I watched the battle video of you letting Riolu fight before. With its strength, it must be easy for it to enter the top eight!"
Then, Xiao Lan lowered her voice mysteriously and continued, "Besides, the prizes for this competition are super rich! The prize money alone is as high as
500
Ten thousand! "
500 million?
Hearing this number, Lu Yuan first snorted disdainfully: "Humph, it's just five million, who are you looking down on?"
However, having said that, his right eye twitched uncontrollably.
Chapter 102 My father... no, the old landing scene
The next morning.
The sunlight shone through the window onto Lu Yuan's slightly tired face.
He woke up slowly, looked at the surroundings with sleepy eyes, and felt a little confused for a moment.
"Really? How could I have such a dream?"
Lu Yuan muttered to himself while recalling the bizarre dream he had last night.
In the dream, Lu Yuanyuan was in a dilapidated house with bare walls. The house was extremely simple, and rain kept dripping from the roof, as if it would collapse at any time.
What made him even more terrified was that a group of elves of various shapes were surrounding him, each with their mouths wide open, waiting eagerly for him to feed them.
He was penniless and lived in a leaky bungalow, and a group of elves opened their mouths and waited for food.
Especially Pachilis, the most exaggerated one, its small mouth opened so huge that it almost swallowed Lu Yuan whole.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but shudder.
He subconsciously touched Vulpix, who was sleeping with his tail curled up at the head of the bed, and the cold touch brought him back to reality.
"Phew...Luckily it was a dream. Otherwise, with so many mouths to feed at home, what would I do if I really went bankrupt?"
After I breathed a sigh of relief, a phone call suddenly came.
It’s Xiao Lan calling.
Today she is working diligently at her post.
"Hey, what's up?"
"Lu Yuan, there's a beggar lying in front of the gym." Xiao Lan's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"He's a beggar. Just give him some food as usual and send him away." Lu Yuan didn't care.
"I did as I was told, but..." Xiao Lan replied at a loss, "But, the beggar said he was your father."
"He is my father? I am his grandfather!" Lu Yuan roared and hung up the phone.
The world is really going downhill. There are still people pretending to be Lao Deng and taking advantage of me these days?
Not long after hanging up the phone, Xiao Lan called again.
"Lu Yuan, why don't you come over here? This beggar insists that he won't leave this house."
"Hey, beggars dare to be so arrogant these days."
Lu Yuan immediately stood up and walked out.
The gate of Wutong Gym.
A ragged, unshaven middle-aged man hugged Xiao Lan's legs and cried, "This is obviously my home, why don't you let me go?"
This action frightened Xiao Lan so much that she retracted her legs and said, "Uncle...you are making it very difficult for me!"
At this moment, Xiao Lan seemed to have found a savior, and said to Lu Yuan who was running over, "Go talk to your 'son'."
son?
Hearing Xiao Lan say this, the beggar uncle immediately looked back excitedly.
He stood up and rushed directly towards where Lu Yuan was.
Fortunately, Lu Yuan reacted in time and dodged the beggar's pounce by moving sideways, leaving the beggar empty-handed.
Due to the huge inertia, the beggar fell to the ground, covered in dust.
But he quickly got up, and while he was frantically brushing off the dust on his body, he shouted at the top of his voice: "Son, it's Daddy!"
This shameless look almost made Lu Yuan unable to hold back and slap him.
However, Lu Yuan is a well-educated and cultured person after all. Even if he couldn't help it, he would never do such a rude thing easily.
"Jelly Egg, please ask this person to leave quickly." Lu Yuan said to the pink giant egg behind him.
At this moment, Lu Yuan suddenly looked carefully and saw the beggar's face clearly.
He is somewhat similar to Old Deng at home.
No, this is really Lao Deng!
But this is not right. Putting aside other things, Lao Deng follows me in terms of appearance, otherwise how could he pursue my mother.
How did you become such a mess now?
"Are you really Lu Jing?" Lu Yuan couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, it's me, my dear son." Lu Jing expressed his happiness that Lu Yuan finally recognized him.
Just as Lu Yuan was about to speak again, Lu Jing interrupted him and said, "Son, I have a good news and a bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"
good news?
These words actually came from Lao Deng's mouth?
Looking back to the past, when I was still young, I called him father like other children of the same age. But ever since Lao Deng took a firecracker and tricked my grandmother into saying it was candy and that it tasted better the more he chewed it, the more he changed.
Lu Yuan discovered that he and Lao Deng were not the same kind of people at all.
Or maybe he's not even human at all.
I often hear Little Blue say that he is the natural enemy of humans, but it’s pretty clear who he is.
All the shady tricks were used on the family members.
So although Lu Yuan didn't have any expectations about the good news from Lao Deng, he couldn't help but be curious.
"Good news." Lu Yuan responded.
He wanted to see what kind of ivory could come out of Lao Deng's mouth.
Hearing that Lu Yuan wanted to hear the good news first, Lu Jing changed his previous decadent demeanor and straightened his back.
"The good news is, look what this is." Lu Jing took out a red and black Poké Ball from his tattered pocket.
Precious ball!
Ziru is as famous as it is expensive. Very expensive. Apart from that, it is no different from a normal Poké Ball.
The appearance of the precious ball formed a sharp contrast with Lu Jing's tattered clothes.
Lu Jing smiled and said, "Open your eyes and watch carefully. Come out."
The precious ball opened and a flash of white light appeared.
A golden elf with a black belt around its waist appeared.
Lu Yuan immediately recognized this elf, he was as rich as a tycoon!
It is said that its whole body is made up of 1000 gold coins. Whether in modern times or ancient times, wealthy people would capture a Saifuga to show off their status.
But Xiaolan didn't recognize the elves of Padiya, so she took out the illustrated book and scanned it.
"Ding~ Saifuhao, Steel-type, Ghost-type, Treasure Pokémon
Ability: golden body
Special moves: Impact, Fright, Night Shadow, Strange Light, Substitute, Metal Sound, Shadow Ball, Self-Regeneration, Power Gem, Gold Rush
Genetics: None
Introduction: It is said that his body is made up of 1000 gold coins. He likes to be close to people and can get along well with anyone immediately.
There actually is such a Pokémon. Little Blue drooled as he looked at the golden body of Saifuhao.
Sai Fuhao is an elf that Lao Deng would conquer.
The reason why he is wearing such tattered clothes is probably because he is searching the world for the gold coins of the money-seeking spirit.
Lu Jing suddenly said, "This is not an ordinary Sai Fu Hao, it is a Sai Fu Hao of a different color. I can guarantee that there is only one of its kind in the world."
?
"Is there any difference between this color and this color?"
Aren't they all the same color?
If this was an alien Metagross or an alien Gardevoir, Lu Yuan could still understand it, but you, the alien Saifuga... As expected, Lao Deng is Lao Deng.
"Of course it's different. Look at this body, look at the golden color, it's completely different from the ordinary Sai Fuhao!" Lu Jing pointed at Sai Fuhao's body.
"This heterochromatic rich man needs to collect 999 heterochromatic wealth-seeking spirit fragments to evolve, otherwise there will be color difference. Look at this body, there is no color difference at all!"
Lu Jing put his hands on his hips proudly.
Then he said to Lu Yuan: "This Sai Fu Hao is a gift from your father to you, to make up for the regret that your father has not been by your side for the past few months."
Father?
Lu Yuan was immediately moved. Who said that Deng was old? This Deng was really amazing!
"By the way, father, what's the other bad news?"
At this moment, Lu Yuan, who was a wealthy man, was going to forgive Lu Jing no matter how bad the news he said was.
Hearing Lu Yuan say this, Lu Jing, who was originally smiling happily, suddenly restrained his smile and said hesitantly: "Well, you have to be mentally prepared."
"Don't worry, I'm prepared." Lu Yuan said, holding the precious ball in his hand.
Chapter 103 Cousin
"No matter what you say, I won't blink an eye." Lu Yuan rubbed the precious ball in his hand.
"Huh, I feel relieved to hear you say that." Lu Jing breathed a long sigh of relief, as if a big stone in his heart had finally fallen. He calmed down and then announced solemnly: "Then I have to say that, in fact, our family is bankrupt."
"Oh, I thought it was a small matter, just bankruptcy!"
Lu Yuan reacted and screamed!
He opened his eyes wide, looking at the humanoid in front of him in disbelief. His originally calm face was now distorted beyond recognition.
Lu Jing shrank back subconsciously and muttered softly: "Why are you shouting so loudly? You scared me to death..."
"Just because of this exotic ball, our family went bankrupt?!" Lu Yuan pointed at the precious ball in his hand, his face full of unacceptable expression, and his voice unconsciously rose octaves.
In his opinion, this was too absurd and not something a human could do.
After hearing this, Lu Jing quickly waved his hands and denied it, "That's not the case. Sai Fuhao spent my own savings."
Not a wealthy man?
Now Lu Yuan was even more confused. What else could be so huge as to squander his family's fortune?
After thinking for a moment, he thought of a possibility and cold sweat broke out on his face.
"You, you started a business?"
After hearing this, Lu Jing smiled awkwardly: "Very close."
“I invested in a project.”
Lu Yuan: “…”
He still remembered that before his grandmother passed away, she repeatedly told Lao Deng to do anything, but never to start a business or invest, and to just stay at home and be a useless waste.
