Just as a few people were about to leave the Platycodon Gym, Asu stopped them.
He couldn't react for a moment, he always felt like he had heard the name Zhenxin Town somewhere, but now Asu finally remembered it.
"Two days ago, I went to the Trumpet Bud Tower next door for routine prayers. I heard that the elders seemed to have caught a trainer with Trumpet Bud in the city recently."
It's also inexplicable. I heard that the trainer walked with steps that he wouldn't recognize, and finally walked all the way to the door of the Trumpet Bud Tower, and even let Trumpet Bud perform his "rooting" trick there.
As a result, he was arrested on the spot and several golden-bodied Arhats directly carried him away.
"That trainer seems to be from your new town, and she is also a cute little girl. Hmm... Calculating from this, she should have been detained for almost a week...?"
As he spoke, Asu added.
Hearing this, Xiaozhi trembled and looked at the two people behind him.
With the arrogant description in the first half of the sentence, they thought they were talking about Xiao Mao.
The result is Xiaolan?
...
"!"
Xiaozhi immediately slapped his thigh with an annoyed look on his face.
How could they, who are from the new town, be bullied like this by outsiders joining forces!
hateful!
With that said, Xiaozhi turned around and left, wanting to break into this trumpet sprout tower to save people.
"Xiao Zhi, calm down..."
"It seems like Xiao Lan is bullying them..."
Xiaoxia and Xiaogang quickly grabbed the latter.
You know that catching trumpet buds is prohibited here, but if you catch them, hide them in a ball and don't take them out. It's outrageous to bring them to someone else's tower to provoke them!
"When did Xiao Lan start dancing like this?"
"Is the death-seeking phenomenon in Zhenxin Town also spreading from person to person now?"
The two of them said in surprise.
Asu also quickly added:
"Don't worry. Although the elders of Trumpet Ya Pagoda are old-fashioned and traditional, they are not evil people. They will probably let your friend go after a good education, and they won't do anything extraordinary."
This is fair game, not that he intends to whitewash Trumpet Bud.
And no matter how you look at this matter, it’s all the girl who’s wrong, right?
Trumpet Bud Tower has a very high status in Platycodon City. Even the officials don’t dare to mess with it. A foreigner just steps on his face...?
Asu, who grew up in Platycodon City, heard about it for the first time.
Hearing this, Xiaozhi also calmed down. It seemed that he really didn't need to be so excited.
So the three of them bid farewell to the Platycodon Gym and planned to go back to the Elf Center first before making any plans...
...
...
night.
After the meal, Xiaozhi left the Elf Center alone and walked toward the northeast of Platycodon City. There was an electric mouse lying on his shoulder.
Finally, he decided to go to the tower to find out what was going on and try to fish out Xiao Lan.
But Xiaozhi did not act together with Xiaogang and Xiaoxia. After all, it sounded like Xiaolan was entirely responsible for this matter. He took action purely for the sake of friendship with his fellow villagers. It was not appropriate to involve other people in this matter.
After walking for more than ten minutes, Xiaozhi could already see a tall wooden building in the distance.
The height is not too high, but there are no high-rise buildings around, but a large open space, which makes the small tower still look very conspicuous.
When Xiaozhi got closer to the target, he discovered that the Trumpet Bud Tower was really just a tower.
It is surrounded by a square courtyard surrounded by walls. It is huge in area, but there is really nothing in it. There is only a tall tower in the center, which looks very simple and unpretentious.
There is an endless stream of people coming to pray and offer sacrifices every day, which represents the high status of the Trumpet Bud Pagoda in Platycodon City.
...
It's already 8 or 9 o'clock.
Different from the brightly lit nightlife in Platycodon City, in a corner of the city, the Trumpet Bud Tower is less crowded and very quiet.
There were no bright lights, the whole tower was pitch black, and only the faint light of candles could be seen.
At the only gate of the courtyard are two golden Arhats, with their upper bodies exposed and strong muscles, holding long sticks.
He has a stern face and looks not to be trifled with.
Xiaozhi naturally did not intend to enter directly from the gate, so he turned around and walked towards the back of the courtyard.
Not necessary.
Then he looked around and saw that no one was watching. Xiaozhi immediately kicked the wall in front of him, and then grabbed the upper edge with his palms.
His arms exerted force, and his body tumbled upwards. In the blink of an eye, he was already standing on a wall more than three meters high.
A set of operations runs smoothly without any delay or stiffness, just like a flexible monkey.
"clatter."
Then he climbed over the wall and jumped down, perfectly sneaking into the courtyard. The corner of Xiaozhi's mouth also raised a sly arc.
This is the path that a wise man should choose.
"Jie Jie..."
Then Xiaozhi lowered his body and approached the Trumpet Bud Tower like a thief...
...
The Trumpet Ya Tower is a four-story wooden square tower with a square body that looks like a large straight wooden pile.
The area is also very huge. Xiaozhi estimated that each floor is about the size of half a football field.
As for why it is called Trumpet Bud Tower.
Not only is the belief of the monks here trumpet buds, but also because there is a straight square pillar in the center of the tower, which runs through the four floors and serves as the load-bearing support point of the entire tower.
But the strange thing is that this is a pillar that is shaking from side to side all the time, but the tower is surprisingly strong. It is said that this wooden tower can withstand even a major earthquake.
The movement trajectory of the supporting wooden piles is like swinging trumpet buds from side to side, hence the name.
Xiaozhi had already approached suspiciously, and when he saw that there were still two golden Arhats stationed at the gate of the tower, he had to stop and think for a moment.
For example, in the Kanto region, he prefers to use Bulbasaur seeds to disguise themselves as rare Ganoderma lucidum to attract attention, and then looks for opportunities to attack.
But now in the Johto area, chrysanthemum leaves can be disguised as fat ginseng that is half buried in the ground. It may also be able to lure these two Arhats away...
"Forget it, let's just climb up."
There are no guest rooms in this courtyard, which proves that the monks all live in high towers. If the door is opened, the monks inside can't solve it either.
Touching the surface of the tower, it was uneven, with a foothold protruding from time to time. Xiaozhi felt confident, stepped on it, and planned to climb up directly.
"Pikachu, you are here to show off, and when you see someone coming, use the flash technique to send a signal upwards."
"Pickup."
Pikachu nodded and sat down on the ground, watching his trainer climb up step by step.
...Soon, Xiaozhi climbed up to the second floor in the posture of Spider-Man. There are hollow windows on the surface of each floor, so you can see the movement inside.
The first floor platform is a place for citizens to come to worship and pray, but it is empty at the moment.
The Trumpet Bud Tower is closed at 6pm.
On the second floor, nearly ten bald monks gathered together, wearing simple cassocks, sitting on futons one by one, closing their eyes and chanting sutras.

"Squeak..."
In front of them is a large rectangular pit, with a square wooden stake swinging left and right in the pit. The ceiling is also configured in the same way, and the wooden stake is connected to the upper floor.
"It really looks like trumpet buds..."
Xiaozhi couldn't help but complain, and then continued to climb upwards.
