Pokémon: The Journey Begins with a Cowherd

Chapter 267 The Lucky Charizard!

Although it was only a little past nine in the morning.

But by this time, Da Sha Gu was already filled with all sorts of clanging sounds.

Looking around, one can see figures diligently digging for fossils everywhere in the canyon.

"Come forth, Scorpion King, Armored Rhinoceros!"

Seeing this, Qingyuan immediately released the Scorpion King and the Armored Rhinoceros.

"Greek!"

"Huh!"

As soon as they came out of the Poké Ball, Gliscor and Rhydon let out a loud cry, announcing their arrival.

"Alright, stop yelling!"

"Now it's time to test the results of your training!"

"Use the skills you've practiced these past few days to find out where there's a cave underground."

"If you find it, don't tell anyone, just come and let me know!"

Looking at the two clueless fools shouting nonsense, Qingyuan slapped each of them on the head and said solemnly.

"Greek!"

"Huh!"

Upon hearing this, Scorpion King and Armored Rhinoceros lowered their voices and called out to Qingyuan.

Then they split into two groups and used ground-based energy to explore where there was a cave underground in the Great Fool Valley.

"Come out, Scizor!"

Seeing that the Scorpion King and the Armored Rhinoceros had already left, Qingyuan released the Scizor.

"Haaah!"

As soon as Scizor came out of its Poké Ball, it quickly surveyed its surroundings.

After confirming that there was no danger in the surrounding area, it nodded to Qingyuan and then stood aside with a cold expression.

"Here, an uncle on the road gave me this. Try digging it up and see if you can find a fossil!"

Looking at the scythe with a cold expression, Qingyuan handed it the pickaxe and said.

He stopped digging himself; he was quite aware of his own luck.

You could suggest he try his luck at winning another bottle or something.

He might still win, but he definitely won't be able to find fossils or anything like that.

"Haaah!"

Seeing the pickaxe that Qingyuan handed him, the Scizor silently raised its pincers towards Qingyuan.

Although I've evolved, my hands are no longer scythes but pincers.

But do you think you can use this thing to dig up fossils with a pickaxe?

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and take it!"

Looking at the scythe that had extended its pincers and was motionless, Qingyuan said, completely bewildered.

He remembered that when Scorpion King was still a scorpion, it could dig holes with branches, so why couldn't Scizor do it?

"Haaah!"

"boom!"

He saw that Qingyuan didn't understand what he meant.

The scyther called out directly at Qingyuan.

Then, with a pair of pliers, he snapped off a stone pillar that was thicker than Qingyuan's calf.

Brother, my pliers are made of steel, I really can't handle this wooden thing.

Seeing the scyther's action, Qingyuan understood its meaning.

"Sorry, I forgot you're a Steel-type!"

"Come out, Charizard!"

He said something to Qingyuan, a little embarrassed.

Qingyuan then released Charizard, the creature with two hands.

"Roar!"

The Charizard roared loudly as soon as it appeared.

He drew everyone's attention to himself.

Before Charizard could even feel proud, it was surrounded by so many eyes fixed on it.

Then a pickaxe was thrown straight at him.

"Stop howling! Hurry up and grab the pickaxe, dig up the fossils!"

He noticed the gazes directed at him from all around.

The socially awkward Qingyuan said to the show-off Charizard with annoyance.

"Roar! (Scorpio King, being an Earth-type, should be more suited to do this kind of thing!)"

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Charizard caught the pickaxe and looked at Qingyuan with a puzzled expression.

"Scorpion King and Ironclad Rhino have other things to do!"

"You're the only one who can do this, stop babbling and get to work!"

"If we don't find any fossils, I'm cutting off all your snacks for today!"

Upon hearing Charizard's words, Qingyuan responded to Charizard with a firm expression.

"Roar! (This is outrageous! Qingyuan is exploiting the elves!)"

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Charizard immediately roared.

"Shut up and dig it up for me, or I don't want to whip you!"

Upon hearing this, Qingyuan immediately shouted loudly at Charizard.

"Hoo! (Oh!)"

Upon hearing this, Charizard roared in response.

He rolled up his elbows with both hands, making a rolling-up sleeve motion, and then spat on his hands.

Then he picked up the pickaxe and started digging diligently.

Seeing this, Qingyuan and the scyther found a shady spot.

While waiting for news from Scorpion King and Ironclad Rhinoceros, I also watched Charizard dig up fossils.

"Roar! (Heave-ho!)"

"Roar! (Heave-ho!)"

"Roar! (Heave-ho!)"

Amidst the rhythmic sounds of the Charizard, Qingyuan gradually felt a bit sleepy.

That's strange, I've never noticed Charizard's roar before, it's so soothing to sleep.

"Roar! (I've dug something up!)"

Just as Qingyuan was about to fall asleep.

Charizard suddenly let out a joyful shout.

Upon hearing this, Qingyuan quickly snapped out of his drowsiness and hurried toward the large pit dug by the Charizard.

"What did you dig up?"

Seeing the Charizard's surprised expression, Qingyuan asked with a joyful look on his face.

"Roar! (Clang clang clang!)"

Upon hearing this, the Charizard took out a fossil shaped like a lazy sheep's head, as if it were a precious treasure.

"What is this?"

Looking at the fossil, Qingyuan said with a puzzled expression.

"Wow! (A fossil! Qingyuan, I'm amazing, right? I dug up a fossil on my first try!)"

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Charizard looked at Qingyuan with a smug expression.

"I know it's a fossil, I mean, it's not a fossilized piece of feces, is it!"

"Look at this shape!"

Hearing Charizard's words, Qingyuan nodded at it, then pointed to the fossil's appearance and said.

"Roar~!!!∑(?Д?ノ)ノ"

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Charizard immediately showed a terrified expression.

Fossilized feces—if Scorpion King knew about this, he'd probably laugh at him mercilessly.

Upon realizing this, Charizard immediately decided to throw it away.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't throw it away yet!"

"Maybe this isn't fossilized feces. Whose feces are so regularly shaped?"

Seeing this, Qingyuan quickly stopped the Charizard's actions.

Upon hearing this, Charizard scratched its head in confusion and thought about it carefully.

It seemed that Qingyuan was right, so I simply handed it to Qingyuan.

He was going to ask Qingyuan to help him find someone to get tested.

"This is definitely not fossilized feces!"

"Fossilized feces usually don't have such regular patterns!"

"Based on the patterns and size, this should be a fossil of a juvenile ammonite!"

Just then, a shrewd-looking man who had been observing Qingyuan and his companions spoke up, looking at the fossil in Qingyuan's hand.

"See? I told you this might not be fossilized feces! You almost threw it away!"

Upon hearing this, Qingyuan immediately smiled and said to Charizard.
