"Him?" Song Ling'er's small face immediately scrunched up.
For some reason, Song Ling'er always felt that Mu Li had a knack for raising people's blood pressure.
Especially now, when she needed something from Mu Li, she always felt that he would do something that would make her feel extremely embarrassed.
However, she looked at the surfers on the sea, watching them ride the waves against the wind, and a hint of longing arose in her heart.
"Are his Pokémon okay?" Song Ling'er said with some hesitation, "I've never surfed before..."
The next moment, Song Ling'er started to back out again.
"Absolutely, even if you have no surfing experience, he can make you the prettiest girl on the entire beach," Fu Peiyao said, teasing Song Ling'er on purpose.
Song Ling'er gritted her teeth and quietly moved closer to Mu Li.
Mu Li was currently preparing to deal with Jigglypuff, who was splashing sand everywhere.
"A Li Gege~~" Song Ling'er called out, using her most cutesy voice.
Mu Li only felt an Icy Wind blow into his back from the hem of his clothes, and a chill quickly spread from his tailbone throughout his entire body.
"Eww~~~" Mu Li couldn't help but shiver. Without turning his head, he directly turned around and kicked a sneaking little fatty, then assumed a defensive stance, looking at Song Ling'er vigilantly and asking, "Let's talk properly."
"A Li Gege, I..." Song Ling'er's words were cut off by Mu Li before she was even halfway through.
"If you talk like that, I can hardly guarantee that I won't do something cruel to you," Mu Li threatened directly.
Song Ling'er's delicate brows furrowed, and she put her hands on her hips, her tone immediately returning to normal: "I think you're just a wild boar who can't appreciate fine grain."
"Hmm..." Mu Li showed a satisfied expression, "That's right. Just speak directly, don't resort to these crooked ways."
Song Ling'er subconsciously took a deep breath, suppressing the extreme fluctuations in her mood, and tried to maintain a calm state of mind as she said, "I want to go surfing."
Mu Li raised an eyebrow and said, "Go ahead, I'm not stopping you, am I? What? You want money? Go find Brother Ruoyun for money."
Song Ling'er's face immediately fell: "So, if I have a Water-type Pokémon, I can save some money, right?"
"That's true, but don't you only have a Pikachu?" Mu Li asked in confusion, "Go borrow a surfboard and let Pikachu carry you."
"How can this guy be so unyielding!" Song Ling'er muttered in a voice only she could hear.
Helpless, she simply said directly, "I heard you have a Water-type Pokémon?"
"Yes, I do! What about it?" Mu Li showed a look of sudden realization and asked, "You want to borrow it to Surf?"
Song Ling'er immediately nodded frantically: "Mhm mhm mhm, exactly!"
"You should have said so earlier!" Mu Li smiled generously and said, "Here, for you."
As he spoke, he handed the Gyarados doll from his body to Song Ling'er.
Song Ling'er's mouth twitched: "I don't want this doll, I want a real Pokémon."
Mu Li slapped his head and immediately laughed: "This is Gyarados."
With that, he suddenly threw the Gyarados doll in his hand into the sky, and the crimson Gyarados appeared above Mu Li and Song Ling'er like a massive floating mountain range.
"Wow!!!!" The surrounding people were instantly startled.
A Gyarados over ten meters tall, ordinary Gyarados would be like little brothers next to it.
And this was a red Gyarados, not something that could be seen in just any place.
Song Ling'er was already dumbfounded. She pointed at the Gyarados in the sky, then pointed at the doll on Mu Li's body, her voice even becoming incoherent: "Your... your Pokémon... are... are all... real?"
Mu Li shrugged: "Don't you know? I said on the show that my Pokémon are all transformed like this using Psychic power."
Song Ling'er looked at the row of Pokémon hanging on Mu Li's body, couldn't help but swallow, and then said, "I thought you were just hanging them for fun..."
Mu Li asked in amusement, "Who would hang so many Pokémon dolls on themselves for no reason? Of course they're real!"
Seeing that Song Ling'er still wanted to ask something, Mu Li quickly reminded her, "Aren't you going surfing? Hurry up and go. More and more people will gather here later."
The attraction of the giant crimson Gyarados was simply too strong, and many people nearby were already holding up their phones and taking pictures.
Song Ling'er reacted, quickly nodded, but then she looked at Gyarados's back and couldn't help but feel troubled.
Mu Li also realized it, a mischievous smile appearing at the corner of his mouth: "Gyarados, give her a hand."
The next moment, before Song Ling'er could react, Gyarados's thick tail quickly wrapped around her, directly coiling her up.
Amidst Song Ling'er's earth-shattering screams, Gyarados used its tail to fling Song Ling'er onto its head.
Song Ling'er's face had turned a bit pale.
Even though she had just been looking at Gyarados's enormous size from below, now sitting on Gyarados's head, it was basically the highest point on Gyarados's entire body.
Plus the distance Gyarados was floating, this spot was already nearly 20 meters off the ground.
What is the concept of 20 meters? Some floors are only 3 meters high, so 20 meters is already as high as 6 stories.
Song Ling'er suddenly felt her legs go weak. She seemed to understand a little why Mu Li had agreed to her request so readily.
Before she could react, she suddenly felt the Gyarados beneath her move.
She subconsciously hugged the protrusions on Gyarados's head tightly. The next moment, a strong push-back sensation appeared.
She felt like a rootless duckweed, drifting with the wind as Gyarados took off.
At this moment, her mind was blank; she could only instinctively grasp Gyarados's spikes tightly.
In just a few breaths, she found herself already above the clouds.
"Hey hey hey... I want to Surf! Why are you taking me so high up...?" Song Ling'er asked tremblingly.
The next second, she experienced what extreme descent felt like.
Gyarados flipped over in the clouds, its entire body falling vertically.
Song Ling'er could only hold on tightly without letting go. She even felt as if she was in a state of weightlessness; at this moment, she couldn't even scream, let alone speak.
Gyarados's speed became faster and faster. Song Ling'er felt as if the air around Gyarados was already rubbing so much that it was catching fire.
A layer of crimson shield appeared around Gyarados.
Song Ling'er's tears, as big as beans, flowed incessantly. She didn't know what to say, nor did she dare to say anything.
Before her was the boundless ocean, and below her was the ocean she had yearned for so much just moments ago.
But now, she didn't yearn for it at all.
"We're going to crash!!!!" Song Ling'er finally made a sound, but it was drowned out by the wind.
Zhang Ruoyun and the others, watching Gyarados descend from the sky and rush towards the sea level, couldn't help but worry, "Won't she get hurt?"
Mu Li smiled and said, "It's fine, Gyarados knows its limits."
"That's good," Zhang Ruoyun nodded, looking at Gyarados with some envy, "It looks quite exciting."
Mu Li couldn't help but widen his eyes: "Brother, do you want to try it too?"
Zhang Ruoyun immediately closed his mouth: "Thanks for the offer, but I'll politely decline."
On the other side, Song Ling'er watched the sea level getting closer and closer to her, and subconsciously closed her eyes.
