Chapter 417
"..."
Seeing Xiao Chi's indifferent reaction, the old man was confused.
You know, in previous festivals, the trainers who passed by here, after learning that they would be important [controllers], all showed excited eyes and wanted to hold the festival immediately.
But Xiao Chi was different. Not only did he not feel excited, but he had a vague idea of refusing.
Seeing this situation, the old man subconsciously became anxious.
Although Xiaozhi standing next to him also looked like a Pokémon trainer.
But in terms of momentum, it is more appropriate to let Xiao Chi be the [controller] of this festival.
Mistakenly thinking that Xiao Chi was afraid of trouble, the old man even quietly leaned into Xiao Chi's ear and explained the current situation to Xiao Chi.
"This is the tradition of our island. This festival is actually to attract more tourists to visit, so there is nothing troublesome."
After saying that, the old man looked at Xiao Chi with a begging look.
"You are quite leisurely~"
Hearing this, Xiao Chi complained helplessly, and then looked up at the cloudy sky.
(Thank goodness you don't know the situation...)
No wonder the locals of Asia Island did not notice the abnormality of nature.
It turned out that the elders did not take this tradition seriously, and only thought it was an activity that could promote the economic development of the island.
"Please, young man~"
Seeing that Xiao Chi had no intention of refusing, the old man was relieved.
With Xiao Chi as an "image spokesperson", the old man believed that this festival would definitely attract more tourists to visit.
"Huh? Isn't this Xiao Mei? Long time no see~"
Just then, a girl standing in the front row took off her hood and greeted the captain girl on the speedboat.
"Oh, it's Xiao You, how many years have you been."
Xiao Mei was immediately surprised. She didn't expect to meet her old friend here.
"It's been five years since we parted at Mandolin Branch School."
Looking at Xiaomei on the speedboat, Xiaoyou said with a nostalgic look.
"Are you still playing the flute as a priestess at the festival?"
Xiaomei joked, not forgetting to make the action of playing the flute.
"Retire, I'm not a child anymore, the festival girl is inherited by my sister."
Xiaoyou said a little helplessly, and then looked around in confusion.
"Eh? Where's my sister..."
"What sister? Who is the festival girl? It's unfortunate for me to be your sister."
At this time, a fashionable girl wearing sunglasses appeared on the stone platform.
"What is that outfit? Where are the clothes for the festival?"
Seeing this scene, Xiaoyou said a little unhappy. She didn't expect that her sister hadn't changed into the festival clothes yet.
"Hate~ I don't want to wear that kind of tacky clothes. Anyway, the festival doesn't start until the evening."
The girl waved her hand indifferently.
"Really, this is my sister, Fruula. She can be a shrine maiden and the protagonist of the festival. Times have really changed." Xiaoyou said helplessly.
Hearing her sister's nagging, Fruula shook her head as if she didn't hear it, and simply ignored Xiaoyou.
Then, Fruula looked at the crowd in confusion, and locked her sight on Xiaochi.
(Is this guy the [Controller] this year? He looks pretty good~)
Thinking of this, Fruula's mouth corners slightly raised, and it was obvious that she was in a very good mood at the moment.
This is the first time Fruula has served as a shrine maiden in the festival. If it weren't for her sister's age, Fruula would not have inherited this identity.
At the beginning, Fruula was quite disgusted with the custom of kissing the [Controller], even on the face, and seemed a little reluctant.
But after seeing Xiaochi's appearance, Fruula felt that this festival custom needed to continue to be well maintained.
"It seems that I have good luck~" Fruula said happily.
After a moment, under Xiaoyou's puzzled gaze, Furula hurriedly ran over from the stone platform, and took care of her clothes on the way.
Then, under the surprised gaze of Xiaozhi and his group, Furula quickly approached Xiaochi's face, and without giving him a chance to react, she gently kissed Xiaochi's cheek.
"This is the custom of the festival, don't get me wrong..."
Furula coughed awkwardly, indicating that she was just following the custom of the festival.
But her red face still exposed Furula's shyness at this time.
"What? You were reluctant at first~"
Xiaoyou approached Furula and rubbed Furula's shoulder jokingly.
Because of shyness, Furula did not refute her sister's words at this time.
"Then, the festival begins!"
Seeing that the atmosphere has been ignited, the oldThe crowd raised their hands and cheered.
Upon hearing this, everyone happily beat their instruments and led Xiao Chi and his group to the center of the festival.
"Pika~"
Seeing Zhipi's worried eyes, Chipi stroked his head as if to comfort him, indicating that there was no need to worry.
Chipi knew what happened in nature, but out of trust in Xiao Chi, Chipi did not seem too anxious.
After all, blind anxiety will only affect the state, so it is better to relax first.
"Pika~"
Chipi's comfort also made the nervous Zhipi relax a lot, and he planned to enjoy the next festival activities first.
At first, Xiao Chi was still worried about the safety of the Rocket trio, but after thinking about the other party's luck, Xiao Chi was relieved.
Xiaozhi and the Rocket team are in a sense "partners" tied together, and it is impossible for them to have any trouble.
...
At night, the festival activities were held on Asia Island as scheduled, and laughter spread all over the island.
The town is the festival center of Asia Island. Although it has a modern style, the town still retains its original traditions, with the totem pole as the center.
During the festival, tourists can buy souvenirs in the market.
Every year, the festival can promote many tourists to visit, indirectly driving the economy of Asia Island.
Especially this year's festival, the number of tourists has reached an unprecedented peak.
The center of the festival is a large tiki hut.
At this time, a banquet is being held here to welcome Xiao Chi and his group who play the legendary [Controller].
"I see..."
"But this year's weather is really weird..."
The people gathered here, chatting happily, enjoying the food on the table from time to time.
At this time, the beautiful sound of the flute came, and the lights were concentrated on the stage not far away.
I saw Furula, wearing a witch costume, playing the flute in her hand on the stage.
For a moment, everyone at the banquet was intoxicated by the beautiful sound of Furula's flute, and no one had the heart to disturb the tranquility of the moment.
"This flute sound has the effect of soothing the soul..." Xiao Chi murmured.
Chipi and Zhipi also squinted their eyes happily, enjoying the soothing effect brought by the flute sound.
(Yes, it's too late to update only one chapter, and the second chapter is still being coded.)
