Facing this sudden attack, the martial arts bear master frowned slightly and swung away the Flying Mantis's twin scythes with his right arm.
The white wings behind the flying mantis flapped rapidly, making a buzzing sound. Seeing that the attack failed, it quickly retreated into the dense trees, taking advantage of the terrain to keep moving.
The martial arts bear master looked up at the rustling trees around him and said calmly: "We have no ill intentions and have no intention of invading your territory!"
Unfortunately, the flying mantis didn't listen. It moved to a blind spot, a white light flashed across its body, and its sharp body flew out of the green leaves at lightning speed.
The martial arts bear master's ears swayed slightly, catching the strange air flow behind him and realizing that his opponent launched an attack from that place.
It tilted its head slightly, and the flying mantis's double scythes hit its strong and muscular back.
The martial arts bear master stood motionless.
Lin Yi was a little worried, and the martial arts master Xiong gave him a look: "It's okay."
As he spoke, the martial arts bear master's muscle strength surged all over his body, and fighting energy gathered crazily on his fists.
Just as the Flying Mantis was about to retreat, it forcefully withstood an elbow attack from the martial arts bear master.
Before he could recover, he punched it in the face again.
"boom!"
The body of the flying mantis flew out instantly, hit a tree, slipped from the trunk and fell to the ground, losing its ability to fight.
The martial arts bear master, who only used one hand the whole time, turned around lightly, hugged Lin Yi and walked to the flying mantis, his face full of majesty:
"We don't have any malicious intentions. We just came here to find a Pokémon called Braided Sheep."
The flying mantis was slightly startled.
The martial arts bear master threw it a tree fruit that could restore physical strength, then turned around, hugged Lin Yi and left here.
"You are hurt."
Lin Yi lay on the martial arts bear master's shoulder and looked at the two scars on its back. Although there was no bleeding, some of the hair on it had been cut off.
"It's okay, don't worry." The martial arts bear master's expression softened.
Although the martial arts bear master said so, Lin Yi still fed it a few orange fruits.
The martial arts bear master happily ate it.
After hearing the conversation between the martial arts bear master and the flying mantis, Lin Yi suddenly realized that today the martial arts bear master came out to help him find clothes.
Clothes...that is, the wool from braided sheep.
Speaking of braided sheep, Lin Yi thought of Hepp's braided sheep in Sword and Shield.
The fur on that Pokémon's body will keep growing, and if it grows too long, their body will be immobilized.
Even if it is cut clean, it will only take three months to grow back to its original shape.
However, braided sheep are generally domesticated or live on pastures, and those ranchers will shear their wool regularly.
Judging from the appearance of the martial arts bear master, it seems that braided sheep also live in this place?
To this, the martial arts bear master gave a positive answer: "I once rescued a braided sheep by the river that accidentally ran into the water."
So, know they live here.
No wonder. Lin nodded and asked no more questions.
He thought of the battle between the martial arts bear master and the flying mantis just now, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited.
Is this a Pokémon battle?
I have to say that the martial arts bear master is really cool. He defeated the flying mantis with only one hand. His movements and postures were very standard, and he looked very much like the boxing master Lin had watched on TV in his previous life.
Powerful, able to take care of others, and with a serious personality, Martial Bear is truly a perfect Pokémon.
At this time, Lin Yi suddenly heard the voice of the martial arts bear master: "We're here!"
He raised his head and saw that they had arrived at a clearing with lush green grass.
The white, plump, and chubby Pokémon were lying in the grass, eating the grass leisurely. They were exactly what the martial arts bear master called braided sheep.
The braided sheep were very docile and bold. They were not afraid when someone came over. They just raised their heads and continued to eat grass calmly.
The martial arts bear master put Lin Yi down and began to think about how to cut the hair from these braided sheep.
At this time, a petite braided sheep walked up to Lin Yi curiously.
When Lin saw the fluffy white hair on its body, he couldn't help but stretched out his hand and touched the white hair on the head of the braided sheep.
"Mea~"
The braided sheep let out a meek cry and narrowed its eyes in comfort.
Seeing this scene, the other braided sheep came over curiously, surrounded Lin Yi, and looked at him curiously with their big eyes open.
There were also some braided sheep that wanted to come over, but they moved very slowly because of the thick layer of wool on their bodies.
Seeing that the braided sheep had no ill intentions, the martial arts bear master let them play with Lin Yi, while he walked to the braided sheep with thick wool on its body and began to study how to shear its wool.
It stretched out its hand, looked at the palm of its hand, and made gestures on the braided sheep.
Seeing the martial arts bear master's actions, Lin Yi also rode a braided sheep over and surrounded the braided sheep that was almost unable to move.
Lin Yi thought of a question: "How did they shed their hair before?"
If no one uses scissors to cut their wool, wouldn’t all the braided sheep in the wild be able to move around?
After hearing this, the martial arts bear master also realized this, and he asked the group of braided sheep this question.
Amidst a burst of bleating sounds, the martial arts bear master quickly got a very strange answer.
It turns out that when Braid Sheep feels that its fur is too long or it can't move, it will go to the forest to find other Pokémon and let them attack it.
For example, if you attack a fire-type Pokémon, when the opponent uses fire, you can burn off the excess fur on their body.
When the braided sheep feels better, they will roll on the ground to put out the fire.
Or find grass-type Pokémon and lure them to use a flying blade to cut their fur.
"Baa baa~" That's it!
The braided sheep replied with bright eyes.
Lin Yi, martial arts bear master: "..."
Why do you feel that the way these braided sheep lure other Pokémon to attack is a bit mean?
The martial arts bear master looked at his fist and didn't know what to do for a moment.
It won't be able to beat these braided sheep for no reason, and even if it beats them, it won't be able to beat the hair off their bodies.
Just when one person and one bear were helpless, a familiar buzzing sound suddenly came from behind.
Lin Yi and the martial arts bear master turned around and saw the flying mantis flying over with wounds that had not yet healed.
The martial arts bear master looked at it in confusion.
But the Flying Mantis had no intention of fighting.
It looked at the group of braided sheep in front of it, then walked to the braided sheep with longer hair, and raised its sharp double scythes high.
After a flash of swords and swords, a complete piece of wool was sheared off.
The flying mantis flew to Lin Yi holding the complete piece of wool, placed it gently on the grass, then stepped aside and let out a cry of embarrassment.
Judging from its tone and emotion, Lin Yi understood what the Flying Praying Mantis meant.
It's saying "I'm sorry".
Is it because of the misunderstanding just now? And the reason why it came after me to help with the shearing was to express its apology?
Lin Yi and the martial arts master Xiong both looked at it blankly.
The flying mantis didn't speak any more, and just when it was about to turn around and leave, the shorn braided sheep jumped up excitedly.
Feeling his body becoming more relaxed and agile, the braided sheep couldn't help but cry out in joy: "Hey!"
Seeing this scene, the other braided sheep around also immediately turned their attention to the flying mantis.
Before the flying mantis could react to what was happening, the group of braided sheep gathered around it and looked at it with bright eyes.
"just?!"
The flying mantis was startled by their behavior.
Seeing this funny scene, Lin Yi couldn't help laughing.
A smile appeared on the martial arts bear master's face, and he said: "They also want you to help them shear their fur."
Only then did the flying mantis react. It scratched its head with its sickle-shaped arm and looked down at the group of braided sheep beside it.
"just……"
After all the braided sheep were brand new, a thick pile of wool was piled on the grass.
Different from ordinary wool, the wool of braided sheep is not in one piece, but in a curly shape. The roots are connected and entangled with each other, which is very strong and not easy to fall apart.
The flying mantis also cut the hair very well. Lin Yi put the wool on his body with the help of the martial arts bear master.
His head, arms and legs can just stick out from where the braided sheep's limbs are.
Lin Yi felt it was very novel. He didn't expect that one day he would be able to wear a woolen sweater, which was the most authentic woolen sweater.
Although there are still gaps between the wool and air leakage, it is generally quite good, at least it is warmer than wearing no clothes.
Moreover, if the wool is piled together and compacted, the gaps will become smaller and smaller, or it can be piled into a cave and made into a bed. It should be quite warm in winter.
And all this is thanks to the help of the Flying Mantis.
Lin Yi raised his head and looked at the flying mantis.
After shearing so much wool in one go, the flying mantis was so tired that he stood beside him panting.
Seeing Lin looking at it, the flying mantis opened his mouth: "Just..."
The wings behind it flapped rapidly and flew away.
Lin Yi: "..."
The martial arts bear master stepped forward and picked up the pile of wool.
But because there were too many, it couldn't take them all at once. After thinking about it, it decided to send Xiao Wu back first and then come back for more trips.
"Xiao Wu, it's time for us to go back!" Martial Arts Master Xiong said.
Lin Yi responded.
The martial arts bear master came over and put him on his neck, then reached out and hugged a large ball of wool and began to walk back.
Lin Yi held a few tree fruits in his hand and hugged the martial arts bear master's neck. His eyes kept moving, looking at the forest to see if there were any mushrooms he could take back.
At this moment, he suddenly saw the figure of the flying mantis in a dense bush.
The green body of the Flying Mantis is almost integrated into the leaves. If you don't observe it carefully, it is difficult to spot its existence.
The flying mantis also saw a man and a bear below.
This time, it did not attack again, but watched them leave.
At this moment, Flying Mantis suddenly saw the human cub riding on the neck of the bear Pokémon suddenly looking towards him.
It was stunned for a moment, and then saw the other party reaching out to it and handing over two fruits.
But it seemed that the distance between them was too far for it to reach, so the human cub gently threw the fruits to the ground and pointed at them.
The flying mantis stared blankly at that scene.
Suddenly, it saw the other person waving goodbye to it.
Soon, the bear Pokémon disappeared deep into the jungle.
After it was no longer visible, the flying mantis flew down from the tree, flew to the berries left by the human cub, and picked them up with its double scythes.
"just……"
————
After returning to the cave, the martial arts bear master put Lin Yi on the ground and left again.
It was much faster on its own, so it didn't take long for all the wool sheared by the flying mantis to be brought back.
The martial arts bear master found a lot of leaves, spread them on the ground, and then put a layer of wool on top. Soon, a fluffy and soft wool bed was made.
Although it is called a bed, it is actually more like a simple mattress.
However, even so, Lin Yi was very happy.
At least you no longer have to worry about freezing to death in the winter.
Happy to see him, the martial arts bear master was also very happy.
To celebrate this happy moment, the martial arts bear master took out the rattan basket hidden behind his back.
Inside the basket, there was a pile of mushrooms and a brown object.
"That's..." Lin's attention was attracted for a moment: "Beehive?"
But didn’t the martial arts bear master say there were bees in it before? How did he bring it back?
Thinking of this, Lin Yi raised his head.
The martial arts bear master hesitated: "I don't know, all the bugs in this one seem to have escaped."
Lin Yi: "...you lied." He found that when this bear lied, his words would become hesitant and his eyes would flicker.
Seeing that he had been exposed, the martial arts bear master was helpless. He moved aside, turned his back to the cave, and said: "Eat quickly!"
Although being bitten by a small insect is very painful, it has rough skin and thick flesh, so it will be fine if it is bitten.
With that said, the martial arts bear master tore off a piece of the shell of the honeycomb.
Suddenly, a sweet aroma wafted out from inside.
Under the brown shell, there is flowing golden honey. The honey is viscous and attractive, crystal clear, and has a pure aroma, which is enough to show its high quality.
Lin Yi refused to eat, so he grabbed the martial arts master Xiong's shoulder and said, "Let me take a look!"
The martial arts bear master had no choice but to turn around and expose his back.
Alas, the little guy is getting harder and harder to deceive.
Lin Yi brushed the hair on its back and found that there was nothing wrong with it except for some redness.
I'm afraid he would have recovered if he had been looked at for a few minutes.
Lin Yi sighed in his heart that this bear was indeed rough-skinned and thick-flesh, then he took out his milk bottle, poured half a bottle of honey, and handed the remaining honey to the martial arts bear master.
The martial arts bear master was a little puzzled: "Don't you want to eat? I'll give it all to you, but I won't eat it."
Lin Yi shook his head: "That's enough for me."
Honey alone is too sweet, and he doesn't like the overly sweet feeling. He saves the honey for roasting mushrooms and fish.
Lin Yi always ate fruit, but the taste was too monotonous, and Lin Yi was a little greedy for other foods.
Seeing that the little guy really didn't want to eat it, the martial arts bear master reached out to take the honey, raised his head, and started licking it in big mouthfuls.
This bold way of eating made the fur around its mouth covered with honey.
Fortunately, the martial arts bear master is very fond of cleanliness. After eating, he used his tongue to lick all the honey stuck to the outside of his mouth.
