I, Zhulan's childhood sweetheart, was trapped in Xicui.

Not long after, three Pokémon wearing purple chains arrived with silly grins on their faces.

——I praise the dog enough, wish there were more monkeys and lucky chickens.

The people surrounding Xu Li seemed to regard them as saviors, and they made way for them wherever they went.

Then...

The three companions did not respond to the call of the villagers in Beishang Township. Instead, they stared at the food on the stalls operating at the Mianmian Festival with golden eyes and reached out to eat it without hesitation!

"This……"

"The three treasures must have just woken up and are too weak, so they want to eat our food to replenish their energy! Let them eat!"

Then they said to Xu Li, "Just wait, our treasure companions will come and deal with you, the evil ghost, after they finish eating the food!"

Xu Li spread his hands and motioned him to wait.

So, Xu Li was waiting, and the excited crowd surrounding Xu Li was also waiting, and they were waiting even more eagerly, eagerly...

But it seemed like the three treasures were endless, and they kept eating one after another.

After a long time.

Finally, the dogs burped and lay on the ground, which meant they had finished eating.

So in the expectant eyes of the residents, the treasures... seemed to be going to sleep?

That won't work!

They are anxious!

After much persuasion around the three treasures, he finally got them to stand in front of Xu Li, looking majestic and fierce with fierce eyes.

"Ugh!"

As long as we defeat this human, we can continue to eat comfortably, right?

The three companions thought so and surrounded Xu Li, ready to fight.

The crowd behind also had gleaming eyes and were about to applaud.

But then...

Just as Gouzan Gou took a strong step forward and attacked Xu Li with a powerful move.

boom!

A huge stick covered with thorny vines suddenly appeared, and the thorny vines suddenly collided with the swinging thick whip leg!

Bang!

The awesome dog covered his thigh and was knocked backwards.

The one who appeared in front of Xu Li was Ergui Yan, swinging a thorny club and with a determined look in his eyes.

It wasn't wearing a mask.

"It's indeed an evil ghost!"

"He really is hiding an evil spirit!"

"Actually." Xu Li smiled and said, "You don't have to come out."

In his hand, he was holding a half-opened Poké Ball that had already been released, which was slowly shrinking.

That was Uruk-O's Poké Ball - in order to prevent Uruk-O from being seen, Xu Li had put it into the ball.

"Boni-oh!" Erguiyan looked at the three companions with a firm gaze, but turned back to look at Xu Li's face, which was full of joy, "Boni-oh~!"

It just wants to protect its friends!

Xu Li was willing to be expelled from Beishang Township for it, and it was also willing to stand up bravely for Xu Li!

"I see." Xu Li smiled and said, "Then we..."

"Shall we smash these three companions of 'justice', along with the stupidity of Beishang Township, together?"

"Boni-oh!"

Chapter 221: Smash it for me!!

Looking at the excited thorn club, the evil spirit once again looked at them with a firm gaze.

The familiar big stick and the green grass mask that the human next to it had put on them personally, transformed into the familiar scene of being beaten into unconsciousness with sticks hundreds of years ago.

The three companions couldn't help but take a step back in fear.

Then, he stepped forward again!

The dog's eyes were fierce, the monkey was showing its teeth and claws, and the chicken was flapping its sharp wings high.

No matter how much they killed the human closest to Eruption - 'Dad' hundreds of years ago, no matter how ruthlessly Eruption killed them.

But now, they have returned again. That evil ghost is still the little guy they bullied!

The three treasures' confused thoughts once again came into agreement!

After eating the villagers' 'offerings', their bodies grew larger again. Feeling the power filling their bodies, the three treasures felt extremely confident.

With a wicked smile on their faces, they surrounded Erguiyan, trying to find an opportunity - the opportunity to bully Erguiyan again.

"Boni-oh!"

Ergui's voice was equally firm.

Hundreds of years ago, due to its carelessness, a group of mask thieves killed its "father" who brought it here. But now, standing beside it, there is a good friend!

Erguiyan didn't want to repeat the same mistake.

Seeing the companions confronting the four Pokémon of Eruption, they were frozen in place.

Xu Li's voice came with a smile: "Don't forget me..."

He slowly raised the faintly lit—

Giant wristband.

……

Not long ago, when Xu Li was surrounded because of rumors of evil spirits, he was at the far end of the crowd.

Danyu looked at Xu Li, who was hiding in the middle of the crowd, with a little anxiety.

"He, he has an affair with a demon?" she said in disbelief.

"Ghost?" Wu Li's eyes lit up slightly. "It's actually a ghost. Wow, so powerful..."

As soon as he said the second half of the sentence, he was hit by Danyu's "axe". He groaned in pain and squatted on the ground.

"That's an evil ghost!" Danyu gritted her teeth and said, "As a native of Beishang Township, how could I be associated with that evil ghost..."

"Danyu!"

At this moment, an old but slightly clear voice came from behind, interrupting Danyu's words.

Their grandfather walked slowly over, squinting his eyes as he looked at Xu Li's hidden, slightly revealed green figure, his eyes gradually became clear.

He pondered for a moment, a hint of worry on his face, but still said, "Is he the teacher you mentioned... It seems it's time to tell you about the 'ghost' and its true history!"

"Danyu, Wuli, at least you have to remember." Grandpa's voice suddenly became serious.

"What..." Danyu was still confused.

"Actually, in Beishang Township, the story about ghosts is completely the opposite," their grandfather simply said. "'Ghosts', or perhaps we could respectfully call them 'evil ghosts', aren't monsters that attack villages."

"A long time ago..."

The story is quite long, and Danyu's grandfather said a lot, as if he wanted to tell the history truthfully.

A long time ago, a man from a foreign country came to Beishang Township with a 'ghost', also known as Erguipeng. However, because their appearance was incompatible with the villagers, they were excluded and not allowed to enter the village.

They could only live in a cave outside the village, but the village craftsmen, not wanting to see them suffer, made four masks for them. Inlaid with four gems brought by the foreign man, they possessed strange powers.

Therefore, with the mask, Ergui and the man can communicate with the villagers and sometimes even participate in the village celebrations.

During this period, Erguiyan and the man were able to live happily with each other.

But the good times don't last long...

The gorgeous mask attracted three greedy Pokémon, who coveted the mask very much and sneaked into the man's residence, trying to steal the mask.

Final Results……

The man fought desperately to protect the mask, but when Uruk-O returned to the mountains and saw such a miserable state, he put on the only remaining green grass mask, angrily carried the thorn vine stick and went down the mountain directly to find the three Pokémon.

But in the end, the villagers who were unaware of the situation and still had xenophobic attitudes towards Evil Spirit believed that a ghost had come down the mountain to attack the village, and the three treasure companions sacrificed themselves to save the village.

This led to the stigmatization of the Uruk-Koryu for hundreds of years. These three Pokémon, known for their dangerous nature, were affectionately called the Pokémon Companions.

They also didn't think about it. If it was really an evil ghost, how could it not suddenly come down the mountain and "eat" any of the people from the north for hundreds of years with concrete evidence?

——Or, in other words, the people of Beishang Township who were harmed for various reasons were all blamed on the "evil ghost".

After hearing the whole true story, Danyu was furious and asked in disbelief, "Then why..."

But Grandpa sighed predictably, "The story of Baoban saving the village has long been deeply rooted in Beishang Township. People generally like to believe what they think."

"What would happen if they suddenly heard that the three companions they had always believed to be heroes were just three thieves?"

"Our ancestor, the craftsman who made the mask for Eruption in the story, has already tried it."

“But the villagers considered him a heretic and persecuted him cruelly!”

"So, this story can only be passed down within our family." Grandpa lowered his head slightly, then said, "I'm telling you this now, not just to tell you the truth."

He looked at Xu Li who was protecting the evil ghost and confronting the villagers.

"That must be your teacher, right? Danyu, tell him this story, at least..."

"Let the person who reconnects with Eruption not misunderstand him because of these rumors."

Danyu nodded in a daze.

But Wu Li pointed at Er Gui Yan, who was surrounded by three companions, and said worriedly, "Ghost... No! Er Gui Yan, they're going to fight again."

"Should we go and help... It's so huge!"

As soon as Wu Li finished talking about going to help, their worried eyes turned into...

Suddenly became shocked!

……

"Dynamax, Eruption! Smash them for me!"

"Bo...Nioh?"

Erguiyan didn't understand, but feeling the energy slowly being injected into his body, he had great trust in Xu Li and chose to accept it all.

Anyway, all we need to do is follow Xu Li's power, right?

Bang!Bang!Bang!

Under the incredulous gazes of the three treasure companions, the originally petite body of the evil ghost suddenly grew step by step into a giant that covered the sky and seemed to sweep across the entire Beishang Township.

To his surprise, Eruption discovered that everyone around him had become much smaller! No, it was Eruption that had grown larger, along with the thorny vine stick in its hand.

"Boni-oh!"

Is it Xu Li’s power?

Amazing!

Then it must not let Xu Li down and must protect it!

Erguiyan thought to himself.

So, facing the frightened eyes of the three companions and their bodies that kept retreating and running away decisively.

——The residents of the surrounding Beishang Township have already run away, leaving the surrounding land cleared.

Want to escape?

Erguiyan raised high in his hand a thorny club that looked like it could stir up the wind and clouds. Emerald green light continued to surround his body and gradually gathered at the head of the thorny club.

Pointing at the three treasured companions from a distance.
