Pokémon: The Journey Begins with a Cowherd

Chapter 94 Arrival at Lampridge

After starting a conversation, Qingyuan quickly became familiar with Xia Qiu.

Watching the two exchanging experiences on Pokémon breeding, Shana gave Qingyuan a resentful look.

Then she took the cursed doll and went somewhere to sulk.

As one trainer aptly put it, trainers are the easiest to make friends with each other.

During the few minutes that Slowpoke was healing.

Qingyuan and Xia Qiu have almost reached the point where they are about to become brothers.

After Slowpoke came out of the treatment room, it saw that Slowpoke was alright.

Qingyuan then let Slowpoke go play with Shana, while he continued to talk to Xia Qiu.

Qingyuan learned from Xia Qiu that he had already participated in one Saiyu Tournament in Hoenn.

However, he was unlucky that time, encountering a trainer specializing in Psychic-type Pokémon in the round of 16.

Despite being a Ghost-type trainer with considerable skill, he ultimately suffered a narrow defeat.

They only achieved a 16th place finish in the Hoenn League.

Dissatisfied with his results, he spent some time practicing meditation at home.

This time, they are preparing to challenge the Quartz Conference in the Kanto region.

Although he had only arrived in the Kanto region five days ago, he had already obtained the orange badge for the Vermilion City Gym.

Next, he plans to go to Saffron City to challenge the Saffron City Gym.

However, I heard that Lampurchi is a great holiday destination.

That's why I thought of taking my sister to Lampurchi for a trip.

After hearing Xia Qiu's story, Qingyuan had already marked Xia Qiu's name with a big red circle in his heart.

If the challenges in the coming summer and autumn go smoothly.

Therefore, Xia Qiu should be the biggest obstacle preventing him from winning the Quartz Conference.

Not only is the level of the Pokémon high, but the Pokémon used is also a troublesome Ghost-type Pokémon.

Qingyuan can say with certainty that he is no match for Xia Qiu right now.

But that might not be the case at the Quartz Conference.

Although Qingyuan wasn't very confident about whether he could defeat Xia Qiu in the future.

But that doesn't stop him from making empty promises to himself.

He always believed that he and his partners were no less capable than anyone else.

He just needs time to plan and develop.

Qingyuan chatted with Xia Qiu until after 11 p.m., when Xia Na told Xia Qiu that she was hungry.

This pulled the two back from their fascination with Pokémon breeding.

Seeing that it was getting late, Qingyuan said goodbye to Xia Qiu and headed towards the training room.

Scorpio and the others have been training in the training room all morning, so he should go and check on them.

Of course, he could also get a free meal in the kitchen.

Time passed by as Qingyuan watched the scorpions train every day and exchanged breeding knowledge with Xiaqiu and Tieyan.

Happy times are always fleeting, as was the Iron Shrimp sailing at sea.

Finally, around 10 a.m. on the fourth day of its voyage, it arrived at Lampurchi.

"Goodbye, Uncle Tieyan, thank you for taking care of me during this time. Hope we meet again someday!"

After packing his luggage, Qingyuan, carrying his spatial backpack, addressed Tieyan, who was standing on the deck directing the crew.

"Hahaha, Qingyuan kid, you'd better do your best at the Quartz Conference, don't embarrass me!"

Tieyan laughed heartily after hearing this.

"Don't worry, I'll definitely make sure you see me on TV!"

"Goodbye Uncle Tieyan! Goodbye Uncle Lund!"

After hearing this, Qingyuan made a promise to Tieyan, and then waved and walked towards the stairs leading down to the ship!

Goodbye, and best of luck at the Qingyuan Quartz Conference!

After hearing this, Lund also shouted at Qingyuan.

Qingyuan waved and drifted off the ship with the current.

Since the main business of the Iron Shrimp is transportation, taking a passenger trip is just a way for Tie Yan to earn extra money and have some fun.

So after disembarking all the passengers, the Iron Shrimp retracted its stairs and continued its journey.

Qingyuan watched the Iron Shrimp ship sail away and slowly waved his hand.

All good things must come to an end, but the world of elves is too vast.

After this parting, Qingyuan had no idea whether he would ever have the chance to meet Tieyan again.

Iron Rock can be considered a benefactor on Qingyuan's path as a trainer.

It not only taught Qingyuan how to be a trainer, but also saved him from many detours.

Furthermore, it allowed its own Pokémon to battle against Scorpion and others, giving Scorpion and others experience in battling against higher-level Pokémon.

Even at the very end, Tieyan personally discussed with Qingyuan how to raise Pokémon.

Qingyuan learned a lot about raising elves from him.

These things alone make it no exaggeration for Qingyuan to call Tieyan "teacher".

So when he saw the Iron Shrimp depart, Qingyuan couldn't help but feel a pang of melancholy.

Fortunately, the Quartz Conference's top 16 will be broadcast on television.

Therefore, in this Quartz Conference, Seigen from Tokiwa City must make it into the top 16.

Let Tieyan see for himself just how far his apprentice, whom he has been teaching for three days, can go at the Quartz Conference.

Watching the Iron Shrimp's figure gradually disappear on the surface, Qingyuan, carrying his spatial backpack, headed towards the Pokémon Center in Lampurch City.

……

What? There are no rooms left?

Qingyuan stood in front of the counter at the Pokémon Center and asked in shock.

Joy's cousin, Joy from the Lambpler Elf Center, heard this.

He nodded to Qingyuan.

"That's right, the Pokémon Center is currently fully booked!"

"Even four-person apartments are gone!"

"And it's currently the summer tourist season in Lampurch, so even hotel rooms are probably already fully booked!"

Upon hearing Joylan's resolute words, Qingyuan collapsed in front of the counter.

Heavens above, why torture him like this!

I was able to sleep in a small cabin on the Iron Shrimp for three days, but now that I'm in Lampurch, I don't even have a room to sleep in.

Just when Qingyuan felt that the world was in ruins.

A voice familiar to Qingyuan suddenly rang out.

"Brother Qingyuan, so you've been here!"

Upon hearing this, Qingyuan immediately stood up and looked in the direction of the voice.

At that moment, Shana was holding Xia Qiu's hand and walking towards the counter.

"Qingyuan!"

Xia Qiu nodded to Qing Yuan.

Good afternoon! Xia Qiu, Shana!

Qingyuan greeted the two of them listlessly.

The thought of not having a soft bed to sleep in tonight and having to camp out completely dampened his spirits.

What's wrong with you?

Looking at Qingyuan, who seemed so listless, Xia Qiu couldn't help but frown.

Seeing this, Qingyuan weakly raised his head and told Xia Qiu about the miserable situation of having to camp tonight.

After listening to Qingyuan's words, Xia Qiu pondered for a long time before finally speaking.

"Why don't you share a room with me tonight? I've booked two rooms at the Lampurchi Hotel."

"We should be able to share a room!"

Upon hearing this, Qingyuan instantly regained his energy and grabbed Xia Qiu's shoulder.

"My savior! You are truly my savior! Thank you!"

At that moment, Joyland heard the commotion and stood up from behind the counter.

"Hey, Qingyuan, have you found a place to stay yet?"

"I was thinking of letting you stay in my room tonight, since I'm on night shift!"

Upon hearing this, Qingyuan released Xia Qiu's hand at supersonic speed.

He stood there lost in thought.

"Should we stay in Sister Lan's room, or go and stay with Xia Qiu?"

"Oh dear, what a happy problem!"

Happy Winter Solstice! Remember to eat dumplings!
