Chapter 166 The Gopher House

The next day, after breakfast, Naoki called the gophers and planned to open up a separate field in the southeast corner of the pasture for planting sunflowers.

After eating the sandwich Naoki gave, the gopher felt full of strength.

Its eyes were full of perseverance, and after Naoki planned the area to be cultivated for it, the gopher started to move.

It retracts its head into the ground, and moves quickly below with incredible movements.

Naoki was very interested in the plowing of the gophers, so he didn't go anywhere, but stood on the lawn beside him and watched.

As the gophers passed by, dirt bumps bulged up on the originally flat land, like complete field ridges.

The surrounding soil became soft and became the most suitable field for farming.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and it took about forty minutes before the field was completely turned over.

The gopher was so tired that he was sweating. He broke through the ground, exhaled tiredly, and then showed an excited expression on his small face.

finished!

How is it, not bad?

The gopher looked hopefully at its employer.

Seeing its appearance, Naoki couldn't help laughing and said, "Thanks for your hard work, gopher, here, this is orange fruit, you can eat one first, and leave the rest to me!"

The gopher readily accepted the berry, and ran to the side, eating the berry while watching Naoki busy.

Planting sunflowers is different from planting wheat. Each sunflower must be separated by a longer distance, so that they can fully absorb the nutrients in the soil and grow up healthily.

With a lot of farming, Naoki has accumulated some experience.

He first judged the distance between each field ridge with his eyes, then dug up the soft soil with his palm, and planted a sunflower seed, and so on.

By the time everything was done, it was already half past ten in the morning.

The sun was shining brightly, and the temperature in the air was getting hotter.

In this kind of weather, the crops in the field are very easy to dry out and lack water.

Zhishu called Kuailong to let it rain, so as to nourish the fields and let the sunflowers grow healthily.

Kuailong used Pray for Rain.

After a while, there was a light rain in the sky.

The gopher on the side stared dumbfounded.

It looked at the sky, then at the field, its little furry face was full of doubts.

It's raining? Why is it raining only in that area?

Zhishu retreated to the gopher, watching Kuailong calling the wind and rain there.

He noticed the appearance of the gopher, and then explained to it: "This is a water attribute move to pray for rain. After using it, it will start to rain from the sky."

"Squeak." The gopher nodded blankly.

Then, as if it suddenly remembered something, it yelled at Naoki, then turned around and led the way ahead.

"What's wrong?" Naoki raised his eyebrows in surprise, and then heeled up.

Soon, led by the gopher, he came to a wheat field growing golden yellow wheat.

The wheat is prepared by Naoki to make malt and brew beer with hops and other materials.

The gopher ran to the side of the wheat field and stopped, and Zhishu noticed that there was a small hole in the grass.

The gopher got into the hole and poked its head out: "Squeak!"

Seeing this, Naoki immediately went back to the house and took out a handful of melon seeds and started nibbling.

"Say it again."

Puzzled, the gopher said it again: "Cheep!" (You can...from here...call me...I hear...come out!)

Naoki understood, the gopher is letting him call it from the hole in the future, it can hear it, and then it will run out from the ground.

"I see." He nodded.

"Squeak~" the gopher croaked twice, and then retreated into the hole.

The weather is too hot, and its body will become weaker and weaker from the sun if it stays outside all the time.

"Then you go back first!" Naoki expressed his understanding for this.

Then, he went to the utility room, used the wooden boards, nails and hammers piled up in the corner to create a small wooden sign, and wrote the words "House of Gophers" on it with a pen, and finally inserted the wooden sign in the hole next to.

Looking at this scene, Naoki clapped the ashes on his hands with satisfaction.

The farm work in the field is almost busy today, and the weather is very hot, so he doesn't want to stay outside, so he simply goes back to the house to watch TV and turn on the air conditioner.

All Pokémon, such as Kuailong, Motor Lizard, and Guleton, are afraid of the cold but not the heat. The hot weather has not affected them in any way, and they are still running around on the grass outside, chasing and fighting each other.

The mount goat and Olino stayed in the fence with a canopy above, so they didn't feel hot for a while.

Moreover, sufficient sunlight is conducive to the photosynthesis of grass-type Pokémon and helps them grow.

The Frost Milk Fairy followed the five salt stone barriers to a cool underground cave to escape the heat, and she didn't forget to grab Bingyibu.

Therefore, Naoki was the only one left in the room.

He ate watermelon while blowing on the air conditioner, leaned on the chair and watched the Pokémon movie on TV, enjoying himself for a while.

But soon, this leisure was broken.

Kuailong ran in from outside, holding a wilted watermelon rind, and looked at Naoki aggrieved.

At first, Zhishu was still confused, but when he saw the rotten watermelon rind in Kuailong's hand, he was speechless.

"I thought something terrible happened. This thing is going to break."

Kuailong opened his eyes wide: "Awwhhh!"

Naoki lay back on the chair again: "Don't worry, I'll order a plastic watermelon helmet for you later on."

However, after saying this, he realized that there seemed to be no such thing as online shopping in this world.

Naoki couldn't help but support his forehead: "In the evening, I'll take you to the toy store in the town to see if there is any watermelon helmet for sale."

Only then was Kuailong satisfied: "Aww~"

Looking at its expression, Naoki added: "However, I don't know if it can still help you after replacing the plastic watermelon helmet."

After all, what was described in the recipe was: a helmet prop made of watermelon, not a watermelon-shaped helmet prop. There is still a big difference between the two.

"Aww?" Kuailong was dumbfounded and didn't know what to do for a while.

It looked down at the rotten watermelon rind on its paws, then at Naoki, thought carefully, and then said, "Wow..."

Forget it, anyway, it has been living in the ranch, and usually does not need to fight, and this helmet is useless.

"Really don't want it anymore?" Naoki raised his eyebrows.

Kuailong nodded seriously, and explained the reason to Zhishu.

"Okay." Naoki thought of the large pile of unharvested crops in the field, among which there may be mutated crops that can help Pokémon become stronger.

He said to Kuailong: "But maybe soon I will be able to find other ways to help you become stronger."

Zhishu originally said it casually, and comforted Kuailong by the way, but he never thought that the next morning, a mutated crop would really be born in the field.
