Chapter 550: Fishing Showdown and the Young Master Who Runs Away from Home
At the feet of the coolly dressed blue-haired girl holding a plump sea fish, a Pokémon that looked like a sea lion, with a white mouth with whiskers and a pink bulbous nose, and a light blue collar around its neck, also looked over.
The pair of front legs patted the belly happily.
This sound was quite harsh at this moment.
To put it bluntly, Luo Mu was very hurt at this time.
He felt that his dignity was challenged and his qualities as a professional fisherman were questioned.
Perhaps the environment is too comfortable, which makes people more emotional.
Luo Mu looked unconvinced at the girl and her partner, the Pokémon that patted its belly and was called the Sea Lion, and said stubbornly, "It's just that the fishing spot is not good. Wait for me to rent a boat and we will go fishing in the sea. Don't be surprised if we catch a big fish."
"really?"
The blue-haired bob-haired girl looked at Luo Mu with suspicion. She had just been fishing with the sea lion. According to her observation, this big brother with a lot of Pokémon seemed more like feeding the fish than fishing.
However, fishing competitions are quite interesting. As a fisherman's child, I naturally cannot retreat at this moment.
Thinking of this, she stopped Luo Mu, who was really planning to turn around and rent a fishing boat, and reminded him.
"Fishing boats are good for catching large quantities of fish. The sound of the engine will make the fish restless and choose not to approach the nearby waters. Let's rent a water mount Pokémon."
"The carapace of an adult Lapras equipped with protective gear is spacious enough for fishing alone."
"My name is Shui Lian, this is my partner Qiuqiu Sea Lion, who are you, big brother?"
The furious Luo Mu paused, and when he heard Shui Lian introduce herself, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
However, his desire to win quickly overwhelmed his surprise, and he nodded stiffly and replied, "Okay, I'm Luo Mu, and I'm a tourist who came to the Alola region for vacation."
It is quite easy to rent the mount Pokémon Lapras.
As long as the formalities were complete, Luo Mu and Shui Lian were soon each assigned a Laplace.
After all, Laplace's carrying capacity is still limited, and he was worried that they would get bored staying with him on the sea, so Luo Mu simply let the Roentgen cats, which didn't want to touch the water, stay and watch over the Uruk-O and Eevee sisters, acting as their temporary guardian cats.
And Milotic followed him into the ocean.
Soon.
The two of them were ready and agreed to get on Laplace and come to a fishing area recommended by Shui Lian.
Shui Lian, who was preparing baits quite skillfully, said: "My father often fishes near here. Fish often gather here. Occasionally, he can catch a lot of fish when fishing!"
Can you still catch props?
Luo Mu was a little skeptical, but his movements were very quick.
After a series of smooth operations, Luo Mu held the fishing rod in his hand, and his mind and body suddenly became one.
On Laplace's back, Luo Mu stood up carefully.
After stabilizing your lower body, take a half step back with your left foot, tilt your left shoulder slightly backwards, and hold the fishing rod with both hands at the same time, with the rod at about 45 degrees to the horizontal plane.
Seeing that it was almost done, Luo Mu pressed the fishing line directly with his left index finger. His center of gravity fell on his right foot and the tip of the rod swung forward from his right hand.
When the fishing sinker passed over his head, Luo Mu instantly let go of the fishing line, allowing the hook and sinker to fall naturally and splash into the water.
The float does not play a big role in transmitting information during sea fishing, so Luo Mu simply skips the float.
Luo Mu's oblique casting fishing method is pleasing to the eye.
Even Laplace, who was looking down from below, let out a joyful and melodious cry.
"Ohhh, that's pretty impressive!"
Shui Lian clapped her hands out of respect, then confidently threw out her bait.
The sea lion also pounced into the water, carefully surrounding the sea fishing line which was slightly thicker than ordinary fishing lines, as if intending to alert Shui Lian as soon as it caught a fish.
Curious, Minas dived into the water and swam around the bait in the sea.
But considering that its presence might make ordinary sea fish afraid to approach, Mienshao quickly surfaced and stayed quietly near Luo Mu's fishing line like a sea lion.
The next test, besides luck, is patience.
After fixing the fishing rod, Luo Mu looked at the sparkling sea nearby.
The sea in the Alola region is quite clean and pure, perhaps this is the benefit of the harmonious coexistence of people and nature here.
It can be seen with the naked eye that the purity of the sea shows almost no signs of pollution.
While Luo Mu was in a daze, Shui Lian had also fixed the fishing rod.
Her personality is relatively quiet, but there is someone around Luo Mu that she is very interested in and who shares the same hobbies with her.
So Shui Lian mustered up her courage and took the initiative to ask, "Big Brother, is your Milotic a different-colored Pokémon?"
When asked, Luo Mu was stunned, then nodded.
"Yes, the hair fins of non-heterochromatic Mienshao are red."
Luo Mu suddenly remembered that Suiren, as the protagonist of the Sun and Moon animation and the water-attribute captain of the Alola region in the game, seemed to be quite fond of ocean and water-related Pokémon.
Come to think of it, it’s no wonder that she had been stealing glances at Mienshao just now.
Seeing that Luo Mu answered her question, Shui Lian's eyes lit up and she curiously asked many questions about Mienshao.
It would be a lie for Shui Lian to say that she is not interested in a beautiful water goddess like Milotic.
It seems that the optimistic Pokemon doesn't feel jealous like other Pokémon do when other trainers are interested in Pokémon.
The Ball Sea Lion, on the other hand, listened very attentively, and looked at Mimicoke with his bright eyes from time to time. If it didn't have to guard the sea fishing line, it would have run to play with Mimicoke.
Luo Mu remembered that Shui Lian's ball sea lion seemed to be a girl, and would evolve into a very good-looking sea lion in the future.
Fortunately, it’s not the so-called transvestite sea lion.
Luo Mu shook his head to drive away the strange thoughts in his mind and started chatting with Shui Lian.
The only ugly thing is that the fishing line at Shuilian's place will fall from time to time, and the sea lion will blow a big bubble to remind Shuilian.
After a while, Shui Lian would carry a large sea fish and put it into the water tank fixed on the back of Laplace, where she was sitting.
This made Luo Mu look at his motionless fishing line, which was getting hotter and hotter as he fished.
But Shui Lian became more and more familiar with each other as the conversation went on. Although she didn't go as far as to interrogate him, she also asked questions like whether the Roentgens and Eevee sisters were Luo Mu's Pokémon, where Luo Mu came from, and what Luo Mu did.
These questions were not considered private, so Luo Mu answered them directly.
But Shui Lian kept moving, and put another large grouper into the water tank, still talking.
"The Padia region? There seems to be a very famous ancient academy there!"
"I have a classmate whose family also opened a ranch on Akala Island. The ice cream made from Moo Moo milk is super delicious. You can go and try it if you have a chance!" In addition to fish, Shui Lian occasionally catches Pokémon from the sea, such as Magikarp, Agate Jellyfish, and even a Nanny Mambo.
However, Shui Lian didn't seem to have any intention of taming them, and soon released them back into the sea.
When Luo Mu asked Shui Lian this question, she said that she was still attending the Pokémon School on Melemele Island, and was still a little clumsy in taking care of the Pokemon, and had no plans to capture new Pokémon for the time being.
The two ended their fishing competition when the sun was about to set.
But compared to Shui Lian’s full tank, in the end all they could put were the sea fish in Luo Mu’s tank.
Luo Mu was like an insulator when it came to fishing. He didn't catch a single fish from beginning to end. Instead, he caught a lot of valuable items that were somehow swept by the ocean currents.
There are even props like shell bells and deep-sea scales.
In terms of value alone, Luo Mu's gains were higher than Shui Lian's.
But he returned the rented mount Laplace dejectedly, like a defeated rooster.
Damn it, it's worthy of being an Ultimate Talented Monster that can even catch Kyogre in the future—
After reuniting with the Roentgen cats, Uruk-O and the Eevee sisters, Luo Mu carried the tank of sea fish that Shui Lian had given him and walked tiredly towards the villa.

Regardless, today is still a day without the Air Force.
I believe that tomorrow will be better.
As for how surprised Zhi Huixing was when he saw Luo Mu coming back with a tank of sea fish and heard him say that he was going to prepare them for the barbecue, I will not go into details.
Perhaps he was tired, even though he was in a new environment, Luo Mu quickly fell asleep on the soft big bed.
The Eevee sisters and Eruption, who had been playing around on the beach for a whole day, also slept soundly.
The night is getting darker.
Accompanied by a cold aura, Lingyou Horse appeared from the shadows, and was lifted into the air by its hooves surrounded by purple mist, looking into the distance in mid-air.
It had been vaguely aware of it since the day.
Somewhere on this island, there is an aura that is comparable to his own.
But if it were just this extent, it would not be a big deal for Luo Mu and the Roentgen cat.
Lingyou Horse fell to the ground again.
Although the king had reminded himself to protect Luo Mu before setting off, in Lingyouma's opinion, whether it was the Roentgen Cat, Swampert, or Dragonite, they would follow him closely most of the time.
Rather than his own protection, Luo Mu needs a Pokémon that can guard the night more.
All it has to do is guard the villa at night.
The weather at the seaside is always changeable, even if the wooden villa is some distance away from the seaside.
I don't know when it started to drizzle, and the rain hit the windows and the roof with a crackling sound.
Luo Mu was not woken up, but slept even more soundly.
Not wanting his handsome mane to get wet, Lingyouma simply hid in the shadows again, quietly observing everything around him in the dark.
It was not until late at night that Lingyouma keenly noticed other sounds besides the sound of rain.
It was a rather hurried sound of footsteps, stepping in puddles formed by the rain, and it was impossible not to pay attention to them.
Originally, Lingyouma didn't intend to do anything as long as the other party didn't get close to the villa.
But the owner of the hurried footsteps slowly stopped after discovering this villa.
Helplessly, Lingyouma could only look to the outside world.
I saw a young man with golden hair wet by the rain, looking rather disheveled, and giving the horse an inexplicable feeling of loneliness, standing in front of the villa.
It was as if he realized that getting wet in the rain again might cause him to catch a cold, making his condition even worse.
The boy hesitated for a few seconds, but decided to step onto the stairs carefully. He wanted to hide from the rain on the terrace outside the villa where many flowers and plants were planted and there was a shelter.
Perhaps it was because the other party looked a bit like a wet puppy. After getting along with many Pokémon on the farm and becoming less lonely, Ponyta hesitated for a moment. Seeing that the other party did not make any move to break into the room, it pretended not to see it and let it hide from the rain here.
But Lingyouma has no intention of showing up, as it doesn't like getting along with most humans.
As for whether the boy would catch a cold or get sick because he didn't change out of his wet clothes -
Lingyouma really doesn't understand this, otherwise it might have called Zhihuixing out.
While Lingyouma was secretly observing the young man, the young man finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at the commemorative ball in his hand, he didn't know whether he should feel regret for his impulsive behavior or anger after knowing the truth.
He thought that the anger towards himself probably accounted for the majority.
Because of his weakness, he was unable to stop his sister from being attacked.
But compared to how to become stronger, the current situation made him more worried.
He took the commemorative ball without a plan and left the Ether Paradise without any preparation. Walking on the street, he suddenly found that he was penniless. He usually let the housekeeper swipe his card, but he had no cash at all. He couldn't even afford to stay in a hotel, not to mention that staying in a hotel might expose his location.
I was walking aimlessly on the street at night, feeling very hungry.
It happened to rain at this time.
When he came to his senses, he ran to the front of the villa.
Actually, I have lived in this villa before, but it was a vacation for my family.
The more he recalled, the more blurred the blond boy's mind became.
In the end, he just tightly grasped the memorial ball in his hand and whispered in a small voice: "Attribute: Empty."
At this time.
Even though Lingyouma didn't understand humans, it was obvious that something was wrong.
Not to mention that it is a ghost-type Pokémon and is extremely sensitive to the life breath of living things.
At this moment, the blond boy's life breath was like a candle flame swaying in the wind and rain, flickering, as if it could go out at any time.
I thought about what my fellow farm friends usually do.
Lingyouma hesitated for a few seconds, then appeared in Zhihuixing's room and woke him up.
The night passed in a flash.
After waking up naturally, Luo Mu, feeling very satisfied, stretched out on the bed, then went downstairs to wash up in his pajamas in a daze.
When he finished washing up and planned to sit on the sofa for a while.
Seeing the blond boy lying there, Luo Mu was instantly frightened awake.
No, who are you! ?
