"Deal!" Geng Gui held Teng Shu's hand and said happily. Teng Shu's mouth twitched. Where is your arrogance just now? Where is the temperament of the overlord of the Orange Forest just now? Sure enough, you can't escape the law of true fragrance.

After reaching an agreement with Gengar, Teng Shu also had some confidence in his own safety. However, he would not cooperate with Gengar for the time being. After all, he was about to go to the Sinnoh region. Teng Shu planned to let Gengar protect him after returning to the Hoenn region. Gengar had no objection to this. After all, it really didn't like to leave here. If Teng Shu didn't live next to the Orange Forest, it would never agree to Teng Shu's request.

"Okay, the other trivial matters have been resolved." Gengar's expression became serious. A gust of wind blew, bringing with it purple-black ghost energy that swept across the entire Orange Forest. In an instant, the Orange Forest seemed to have entered its doomsday.

The wind was howling and Teng Shu's eyes narrowed. He looked at Gengar in front of him and slowly put his hand down.

"Yeah, it's time to get down to business." Teng Shu looked at Gengar seriously. How could he forget about this matter with Gengar?

Shibata Laojian also opened his eyes and held on to his hat to prevent it from being blown away by the howling wind.

As a flower was blown down by the strong wind, Teng Shu and Gengar took action instantly!

"rock-paper-scissors!"

"rock-paper-scissors!"

The strong wind dissipated in an instant, and the forest returned to its former tranquility again. Gengar squatted in the corner of the forest with a wronged look on his face, lowering his head and drawing circles there, muttering something as he drew circles. Teng Shu was a little amused and helpless. This guy Gengar, he had deliberately let him win by making a scissors gesture, which is a gesture that most people would subconsciously make when playing rock-paper-scissors.

But who knew that Gengar would play a cloth, and he lost again.

"Ah, Gengar, ahem, try harder next time." Teng Shu walked to Gengar, patted the aggrieved guy, and said helplessly that he had really tried his best, but who knew that Gengar still lost. Thinking of this, Teng Shu took out a notebook and made a note on it.

Old butler Shibata was standing at the back, wanting to laugh. The relationship between his young master and Gengar was really quite interesting. It was just that Mr. Gengar was too straightforward. He kept coming even after losing.

"There's an extra Poké Ball on your waist. Is what's inside the Poké Ball the reason you want to hire me?" Gengar looked at the Poké Ball on Teng Shu's waist, then looked at the yawning and unmotivated Xiao Q and Fugui who was leaning against a tree trunk reading a novel, and asked.

Gengar knows Teng Shu very well. Teng Shu is very powerful, but he doesn't seem to care much about capturing Pokémon. Up to now, he only has two Pokémon. If someone else has Teng Shu's family background, he would probably be at the bottom of the six dragon series.

"Well, a super trouble." Teng Shu said with some headache. Speaking of Groudon, Teng Shu's scalp tingled. If it weren't for Groudon, Teng Shu wouldn't need to hire a bodyguard. And it can be said that if his name was not Zvochi Teng Shu, he might have been controlled by the alliance.

After all, since it involves a legendary beast, the Alliance will not let it go easily. However, Teng Shu is a member of the Zifuchi family after all, and his brother is the champion of the Hoenn Alliance, so the Alliance cannot do things like house arrest and can only send people to protect him.

"I've been curious about why there are so many elite trainers around you. It turns out it's your own fault." Gengar glanced at Teng Shu, and Teng Shu's mouth twitched. There was nothing wrong with Gengar saying that. After all, if he hadn't thrown the Poké Ball at Groudon, there wouldn't be all these troubles now.

Teng Shu was a little helpless, but there was no other way now. If the problem of Groudon was not solved, Teng Shu's security would have to be stricter. Teng Shu himself could not afford it, and the alliance could not afford the fact that Groudon was taken away by the Dark Organization.

"I'll come find you when you come back." Gengar patted Teng Shu's shoulder, and then the entire Pokémon merged into the shadows and disappeared into the Orange Forest.

Teng Shu glanced at the quiet Orange Forest around him. He knew that the elite team invited by his old father was protecting him in secret. The reason why Gengar left was also related to these elite teams. After all, Gengar didn't like to show up in front of strangers. He was able to show up because of Teng Shu standing here. If Teng Shu didn't come in, these elite team members wouldn't even be able to see Gengar's hair.

"Grandpa Shibata, please buy me a plane ticket to Sinnoh." Teng Shu stretched lazily. Now that Gengar's security issue has been settled, the next thing to do is to go to the Sinnoh region to relax.

By the way, after the filming of the variety show is finished, Teng Shu will need to return to the Hoenn region as a special guest for the last two shows.

"Okay." Butler Shibata took note of this and took out his cell phone.

Soon, Teng Shu boarded the plane to Sinnoh.

Chapter 237 The Secrets Buried in the Ruins

"Bayo City looks like a place with a lot of ancient ruins." Teng Shu looked at Bayo City in front of him with a hint of curiosity in his eyes. After he came from Hoenn by plane, he came directly to Bayo City. This was also the place agreed upon by Teng Shu and Shirona. The place where Shirona mentioned the remains of the settlement site from the Xicui era were excavated was just around Bayo City. Teng Shu planned to follow Shirona to take a look and collect some materials to prepare for the subsequent filming of the movie.

However, thinking of the plane he had just taken, Teng Shu's expression became a little subtle. There were only him and a few other passengers on the plane. Teng Shu knew the identities of those passengers. They were all the elite team invited by his old father, and the special commissioner sent by the Hoenn Alliance to protect Teng Shu. There were no other ordinary passengers, which made Teng Shu's scalp tingle.

"Yes, this place," Zoroark said with emotion as he stood beside Teng Shu.

Teng Shu looked at Zoroark beside him with empty eyes. How did this guy follow him? Teng Shu was a little confused. He originally asked Zoroark to stay in the Hoenn region to take care of many affairs of the company, but he didn't expect Zoroark to follow him.

"What? Have you thought of anything?" Teng Shu said helplessly. The reason why Zoroark came here was [It's possible that I can remember some of my previous memories when I arrive in the Sinnoh region], so Zoroark followed Teng Shu. However, looking at Zoroark's appearance, Teng Shu felt that whether the other party had thought of anything was still an unknown.

"I, I don't know." Zoroark looked at the city in front of him in confusion. He always felt that this city was a little bit familiar, but it didn't seem particularly familiar.

Teng Shu was a little helpless, but he still took out his mobile phone and called Shirona. Soon Shirona answered the phone. After hearing that Teng Shu was coming, she asked Teng Shu to wait for a moment and then hung up the phone.

Teng Shu looked at the phone. The sound from Sirona's end was a bit noisy, with all the clanging sounds, like it was at a construction site.

"Teng Shu!" Soon, Teng Shu heard Shirona's voice. When Teng Shu turned his head to look over, he found that Shirona was wearing dusty clothes and waving at him happily.

"Shirona, what are you doing?" Teng Shu looked a little strange. Could it be that Shirona was at an archaeological site just now? However, this seemed to be more in line with Shirona's personality. Shirona, the Sinnoh champion, was more or less not doing her job properly.

Shirona trotted over and glanced at Zoroark beside Teng Shu with a hint of curiosity in her eyes. She noticed that Zoroark's identity was different, but she didn't pay too much attention to this issue.

"I was just at the archaeological site, where they were excavating ruins. They have discovered some very interesting buildings. Do you want to go and have a look?" Shirona said excitedly. Although she was asking a question, Teng Shu could feel Shirona's urgent invitation.

"Okay." Teng Shu did not refuse, but smiled and brought Zoroark and Shirona to the outside of Baidai City. A huge group of ruins slowly appeared. Teng Shu looked at the ruins in front of him, feeling a little dazed.

He remembered that when he first played Arceus, there was a similar complex of buildings. At that time, he controlled his own game character to help Professor Laben complete the Pokémon encyclopedia, and at the same time experienced the joy of throwing the ball and sneak attacking Pokémon in the wild.

"This is our latest discovered relic. According to our judgment, this was once a place where people lived during the Xicui era, and there are some very surprising discoveries here." Shirona said enthusiastically. Teng Shu had some guesses about the surprising discoveries that Shirona mentioned.

"Galaxy Team, we found some records about the Galaxy Team here, but the Galaxy Team of that era is not the Galaxy Team of today. The Galaxy Team at that time shouldered more positive responsibilities." Shirona's words confirmed Teng Shu's idea that it was indeed the Galaxy Team.

After all, in this era, there is also a Galactic Team in the Pokémon world, and they are causing trouble in the Hoenn region, causing headaches for the people in the Alliance. Unexpectedly, there was also a Galactic Team in the past, but they were decent characters. It can only be said that times have changed, and these things are also very regrettable.

"This relic...is it so big?" Teng Shu looked at the ruins in front of him with some curiosity.

"Well, according to estimation, it should be a gathering place for people in the past." Sirona nodded, and then took Teng Shu to visit it.

However, although it is called a relic, after so many years of baptism, there is not much to see now. Most of them are the outer outlines of some buildings, and very few are intact. Only some stone bases can show that there were buildings here.

Teng Shu was quite interested at first, but he lost interest after looking at it for a while. After all, these were just some stones and there was really nothing to see. There were also no history books to record past events.

"Ms. Sirona, we found something very interesting!" A researcher hurried over and said excitedly.

"What?" Shirona hurriedly followed, and Teng Shu also followed with Zoroark. He felt that Shirona was almost the same type of person as his eldest brother. When faced with something they were interested in, they would have a very strong enthusiasm.

It's like another Daigo, except that the older brother is interested in stones, while Sirona is interested in archaeology.

When he arrived at the destination, Teng Shu saw a relic that was still being excavated.

"Books?" Teng Shu was a little surprised, because he saw the books placed here. Although they were wrapped in mud, they were obviously books.

"It's preserved so well? Have you done anything to protect against oxidation?" Shirona was also shocked. How could such a book be unearthed?

"We've done it all." The researcher carefully took out a few photos.

This is the photo they just took. After all, books are so precious.

"Let me see." Shirona picked up the photo and looked at it. In the photo, the handwriting of the book looked a little blurry, but it was still recognizable.

"Hmm, this seems to be a storybook? Or is it handwritten?" Shirona narrowed her eyes, she recognized this ancient writing.

"What are you talking about?" Teng Shu also became interested.

"What? Cinderella ran out of the palace in a hurry and pulled one down."

"Glass slippers?"

Chapter 238: You take Chenxiang saving his mother as official history?!

"And what does it say next?" A flash of lightning seemed to flash through Teng Shu's brain. He asked anxiously, his tone was very anxious, but Shirona did not notice this. When she heard Teng Shu's question, she helped Teng Shu check it out.

"The following... the following seems to be about the prince taking the beautiful shoes to ask others to try on, and the wicked stepmother and several sisters trying to put on the shoes." Listening to Shirona's words, Teng Shu felt a little dizzy. He was now certain that the story told by this book dug out from the Xicui era was the classic fairy tale of Cinderella in the previous life.

Cinderella, the status of this classic childhood story needs no explanation, but in the world of Pokémon, there is no such fairy tale. Teng Shu did think about whether to move these stories out, but he was not short of money, so he did not do so.

But now, in the distant Xicui era, which was almost countless years away from him, a book was dug up, which recorded the story of Cinderella. This made Teng Shu feel a little numb.

Why is this happening? Teng Shu couldn't understand.

"Could it be that there is another time traveler in the Xicui era?" Teng Shu thought of some possibilities. After all, he was very sure that there was no fairy tale like Cinderella in this world. But now that the fairy tale has appeared and the plot is the same as the original, there are only two possibilities.

One possibility is that the compiler of the Cinderella story traveled back to the previous life from the Pokémon Era and left behind the work Cinderella, but this possibility is almost non-existent.

The story of Cinderella is widely circulated, but in fact, there are some adaptations of this fairy tale. Among them, French writer Charles Perrault added fairies, pumpkins and crystal shoes to the already popular Cinderella story, while the version of the Grimm brothers is more complete and more widely known.

One thing Teng Shu could determine from the fairy tale told by Sirona was that this version of Cinderella was the version by the Grimm Brothers.

Well, unless the Grimm brothers were time travelers, there is no explanation.

"So." Teng Shu was more inclined to the second possibility, that is, there was a time traveler, or someone who knew this story, who traveled to the Xicui era and left Cinderella behind. This possibility was relatively high.

"But the problem is that I haven't traveled through time myself." Teng Shu fell into deep thought. He didn't remember traveling through time to the Xi Cui era and leaving behind such a book.

So there may be other

Teng Shu was stunned for a moment, he turned his head and looked at Zoroark beside him. Since he came to this ruins, he seemed a little strange, no longer playful, but serious, which made people feel uncomfortable.

"Shizuka, do you remember this place?" Teng Shu looked at Zoroark and a strange guess flashed through his mind.

Zoroark's name is Shizuka, and in the past, when Teng Shu was playing with a little girl, he told her some classic fairy tales from his previous life, such as Cinderella, Snow White, and Chenxiang saving his mother.

And the girl who was Teng Shu's childhood sweetheart, the one with long white hair and cute facial features, was also named Shizuka.

"?" Shirona turned her head sharply and looked at Teng Shu. What did she just hear? Shizuka? That senior executive of the Galaxy Team?

"It looks familiar to me, but I don't seem to know it." Zoroark grabbed its hair in annoyance, feeling distressed.

Shirona glanced at Zoroark and let down her guard. In the world of Pokémon, it was not uncommon to have people with the same name. There was an actor named Ohki before.

Teng Shu looked at Zoroark and frowned slightly. It might be true or it might not be true. After all, he had seen the photo of Shizuka, a beautiful girl with white hair, very cute. But Zoroark did not have white hair, and his face shape was also different.

But if not, then why did Cinderella appear in such distant history?

Teng Shu felt like he was standing in a fog. He could vaguely see the dense shadows of trees in the fog, but he just couldn't see clearly what was inside.

"Are there any other photos?" Teng Shu asked Shirona. He wanted to see if she had left any other clues, such as a secret code that said odd numbers change but even numbers remain the same.

"There are a few, and the others are still taking pictures." Shirona nodded, and then took the opportunity to introduce the contents of the book to Teng Shu.

After listening to this, Teng Shu's expression became even more confused. When he heard Sirona's strange pronunciation of Chenxiang, he knew what the story was about.

Chenxiang saves his mother.

The story that Teng Shu once told to the white-haired little loli Shizuka appeared again in the Xi Cui era. All of this seemed to point to one clue, that is, Shizuka went to the Xi Cui era.

but

Teng Shu scratched his head, he didn't remember such a plot in the anime. After all, Arceus could be considered a spin-off, but it was also included in the official records, and the image of Dr. Laben could be seen in Zhuzi's academy.

So what is going on?

Teng Shu looked at Zoroark, who was looking confused, with complicated eyes. If his guess was correct,

"But this is really strange. I didn't expect that people in the Xicui era could write such excellent stories. Moreover, these stories are so unique. This can definitely provide important references for studying the ancient history of our world!" Looking at the excited Shirona, Teng Shu's mouth twitched.

No, are you serious?

Are you treating Cinderella and Chenxiang saving his mother as ancient history?

So if only one copy of Journey to the West was dug out in the previous life, would everyone have to go out to look for Fangcun Mountain and the Dragon King?

Teng Shu was a little confused, but he really had no way to answer this question. After all, this question really could not be answered. He said he knew this story? Then how did he explain how he knew this story?
