Chapter 207 The old-fashioned old man who pretends to be arrogant
After some deductions, everyone has concluded that the volcano will erupt on Honglian Island in five weeks. Then, they will go to the biggest official here to have a good communication.
Otherwise, everyone is still living peacefully, and suddenly the volcano erupts, and we collectively go to the underworld on the spot.
Although this town is not that big, it still has thousands of people. Thousands of people died at the same time. Just thinking about it makes my scalp numb.
Five days may be a bit rushed, but five weeks is plenty of time.
"Let's go to the Red Lotus Gym first."
Xiaozhi had an idea. Generally speaking, the gym leaders in a city have a say in the local area. If they shout on the street, they might be arrested directly. It is better to let the gym leaders promote it.
If the other party doesn't believe it, you can still fight with him to show your strength and let the gym owner know how powerful you are.
A strong trainer is naturally more convincing.
Taking advantage of the situation, he got his seventh badge.
Kill two birds with one stone.
"Good job!"
As soon as the three of them gathered together, they immediately rushed into Honglian Town and walked towards the direction of Honglian Gym...
...
"Hello, where is the Red Lotus Gym?"
"I'm not familiar with you. I'm traveling out of town."
"Oh, I'm here to soak in the hot springs. Is Honglian Gym a famous hot spring hotel?"
Xiaozhi and his party asked several passers-by, and most of them were passers-by who were traveling, so they had no choice but to walk towards a local store.
"Hello, where is the Red Lotus Gym?"
"I'm not familiar with it, although I'm from the local area." The store owner waved his hand and replied nonchalantly.
Gym?
Can that make money?
Xiaozhi's expression has faintly changed.
After many inquiries, the three of them found out that the Red Lotus Gym had closed down a long time ago. Now the island is basically filled with tourism industry, hotels, restaurants, hot springs and other dining and entertainment facilities. There is no such traditional training facility for trainers to fight.
.
Soon after, the three of them came to a house that was crushed by messy wood. Looking at the cobwebs and dust on it, it seemed that it had been abandoned for a long time.
This is the Red Lotus Gym.
"Hey, illustrated book, didn't you say that the Red Lotus Gym is still open? The data is from a few years ago, and it won't be updated!"
Xiaozhi took out his illustrated book and tossed it around, complaining again and again.
"Didi. The Red Lotus Gym is still open. Gym leader: Xia Bo. Business hours: 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Challenge requirements: 6 or more badges. The most recent challenger record was seven days ago.
..”
The illustrated book is trying to defend itself.
Xiaozhi: "?"
He pointed at the dilapidated remains of the Red Lotus Gym. Seven days?
About seven years ago.
...
"The three teenagers are here to look for the Red Lotus Gym. It has been closed for three years..."
An old man's voice came from the side. The three of them looked up and saw a brown-haired man standing next to the Red Lotus Gym. He had weird mid-length hair and a round frame on his face.
The sunglasses and clothes also have a hip-hop style, like a hippie with a very inconsistent style.
"Xia Bo, the leader of the Red Lotus Gym, is a powerful trainer. When faced with countless weak challengers, he finally lost patience and closed the gym. He no longer accepted any challenges. Now he has disappeared.
Already."
He explained slowly, with some emotion in his tone.
He was obviously an old man, but he was dressed like a young man. Xiaozhi couldn't help but look at him curiously:
"You understand so well, who are you?"
"Haha, I'm just a passerby..." the mysterious man in sunglasses replied with a smile.
Before he finished speaking, the illustrated book in Xiaozhi's hand once again made an electronic sound.
"Didi. The answer to your question "Who are you?" has been retrieved."
A beam of infrared light fell on the weird hippie's forehead, as if he was being targeted by a big sniper, causing the latter to tremble and not dare to move.
"Didi. Uncle Xia, age: 59 years old, is the leader of the Red Lotus Gym, a researcher at the Red Lotus Research Institute, and an expert in the fire attribute. He was saved by a flame bird when he was a child and thus embarked on the path of a fire attribute trainer. Zeng Jin
He went astray to serve the Rockets. Because his conscience was condemned, he has now distanced himself from the Rockets and likes to tell boring jokes."
Xiaozhi and three others: "?"
Mysterious old man: "?"
The latter was even more obsessed with a wind-speed dog. How come all his details were exposed when he came face to face with him?
What kind of black technology is this?
"Didi. Trivia: Since Xia Bo is already bald at the age of 45, his medium-long brown hair is most likely a wig."
The illustrated guide issued a prompt again.
Xiaozhi: "..."
Xia Bo: "..."
The two looked at each other, an awkward atmosphere of solemnity filled the air...
...
"Haha, Mr. Xia Bo, don't pay attention to what my illustrated book says."
Xiaozhi was the first to react, and his expression became happy.
He thought that apart from saving thousands of people, getting published in newspapers, and getting the honorary title of a justice trainer, there would be no other gains from this journey.
It seems that I can still fight against the trainers from the Red Lotus Gym!
This identity information scanning is a traditional art of illustrated books, Xiaozhi still believes in it.
"Haha, young man, your illustrations are quite impressive..."
Seeing this, Xia Bo no longer concealed his identity, smiled heartily, then stretched out his hand to scratch his head, and pulled off the brown hair on the top of his head, revealing his big bare head.
With some reflection.
He is indeed bald.
As a researcher and gym trainer, it is remarkable that he is only bald at the age of 45.
"This old man is Xia Bo, the trainer of the Red Lotus Gym."
The eyes and facial features cannot be clearly seen under the sunglasses, but Xia Bo still has two bunches of gray beard on his bald head, and his body looks very strong.
"Haha, but what the illustrated book says is not entirely true. It's not because of this reason that I shut down the gym leader." Xia Bo explained, and its tone was quite young and talkative.
He doesn't pick on the challengers who come, no matter how strong or weak they are, he just needs to find him by himself.
After all, it was really not his turn to pick, because there were not many people to challenge it. The current Red Lotus Gym has long been forgotten, and the world only remembers Red Lotus Town as a perfect hot spring tourist resort.
Thinking of this, Uncle Xia felt a little sad:
"I feel very heartbroken. People here only know how to make gimmicks and open hot spring hotels to make money. They have no traditional connotation at all and have completely forgotten their true intentions!"
So he closed the gym in public to express his belief that he was ashamed to associate with them.
Xiaogang couldn't help but ask: "Then what is their original intention?"
"The original heart...the original heart is...that kind of thing from the original heart!"
Xia Bo couldn't tell. He only knew that the residents of Honglian Island used to live and work in peace and contentment on this small island, instead of building these fancy hotels with all the mess like now.
"I see."
Xiaogang's eyes suddenly became profound, as if he had seen through everything.
"Honglian Island used to be a self-sufficient small farmer economy, but now it has become a market economy that exchanges supplies with the outside world, but you don't like this change. You are a typical..."
Speaking of this, Xiaogang suddenly stopped and stopped talking.
Xiaozhi became anxious instead, frowning and saying:
"What does it belong to? There are two types of people I hate the most in my life. One is the one who talks only half of the story! I won't talk about the other one yet."
Before Xiaogang could speak, the illustrated book answered again and made a series of electronic sounds.
"Didi. He is a typical old man who thinks he is noble and noble."
