Chapter 121 New Road
Cooking smoke curled up into the air, night fell, and the temporary camp was in a gloom.
"This incident happened because of me, ninja, the task reward is doubled as a reward, okay?"
In front of the fire, the maidservant Sakura raised her eyes, looking indifferently at the escort ninja.
"The B-level mission of Konoha Hidden Village is the mission where you may encounter ninja enemies during the mission." Yueguang Xingbo looked back indifferently, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "So, Your Highness, the decision is up to you."
Hearing the second half of the sentence, Kuno Heiyu was obviously relieved. In his opinion, he refused to offer the money, which is a pitfall!
"Yeah." Sakura waited noncommittal, and immediately turned around.
The light from the fire shone on her back, which made people see that her back was actually a little thin.
The girl took a few steps, as if she suddenly remembered something, and then her steps stopped, her feet didn't move, she only tilted her head slightly.
"The princess is still the princess, and the samurai is still the sakura, I hope the ninja can still tell the difference."
After the words of exhortation fell, the girl walked away slowly holding the handle of the knife. As the figure got farther away, the black shadow cast on the ground reflected by the fire pile became taller and deeper.
Xia Shu squinted his eyes and remained silent, then shook his head and put all the court machinations that he had made up in his mind behind.
Those messy things have nothing to do with him, trying to figure out a waste of brain cells is simply a panic.
Close your eyes, continue to extract chakra from the satiated dinner silently.
This kind of boring but full of expectation finally calmed his mind down.
As for the information obtained from the ninja, it is not important at all-of course, it is not important after getting it.
That information confirmed his previous speculation that Musashi led the team to the north of Kasumi no Mori for the purpose of ambush.
However, Musashi himself didn't know much about the ambushers, and he had never been in contact with them before. He only learned from his mouth that the ninjas were hired by certain conservative parties in Tanokuni, but he kept silent about the details.
This action angered Yingshi, cut off his restraints, and handed him a knife, intending to distinguish between superiors and life and death in a duel.
Musashi drew his sword and confronted Yingshi, but he offered his neck and begged to die at the first sword, which was his wish.
And those who are stubborn and conservative are extremely repulsed by the alliance with the Kingdom of Frost, and are involved with the peace-loving forces in the Kingdom of Tang, and believe that the right way is to live in harmony with neighbors.
From this perspective, those conservative parties seem to be just.
Xia Shu has no way of judging whether these national disputes are just or not, and there is no corresponding display in the original work. He only knows that Tang Yin is so weird that he uses ordinary people as leaders, and there will be a character like Fei Duan in it. Believers of evil gods.
But today's Tang Yin is indeed restless, and the martial arts faction is growing rapidly. For a country like Tian Zhiguo without ninja forces, it is impossible not to panic and find a way to deal with this situation.
So correspondingly, if Tian Zhiguo's conservative party tried to obstruct it, Tang Zhiguo might do the same.
The Conservative Party hired only wandering ninjas, but what Hinata Keita encountered was most likely Yuyin ninjas.
Therefore, it is still difficult to determine whether the road ahead will be smooth or not.
And thinking of this, Xia Shu felt a sense of urgency in his heart, and then it turned into longing for the next "dimension thief" to catch.
In particular, it is not far from this becoming a reality.
After resting in the camp for the night, the morning light was twilight and the breakfast was lit. When the temperature gradually rose, the escort team was ready to set off.
So far, the escort has only traveled one-third of the way, and then stepped into the territory of the Kingdom of Tang, and after crossing it, they arrived at the Kingdom of Frost.
Before that, one thing must be determined in advance.
"The previously determined route must be changed!" Gennosuke Aoki held the map in his hand and said in a firm tone, looking directly at the girl with the knife.
"The information given by Musashi may not be credible. Maybe he doesn't know exactly how many obstructions those people have arranged. Moreover, those people have secretly colluded with Tang Zhiguo, even though they did only prepare this wave of ambush. Tang Zhiguo may not be silent, after all, you should know that Tang Zhiguo has Ninja Village." Yueguang Xingbo's eyes flashed coldly, and he had already explained the pros and cons, and immediately waited for the girl's choice.
It's just that no matter what the girl chooses, it can't change one thing—this is an escort mission.
It is his responsibility to protect the life and safety of the other party, so even if the girl is honorable, he still has to make decisions on the key points. The communication at this moment is already enough respect for the other party.
Xia Shu watched quietly from the side, the matter was obvious at a glance, so there was no need to intervene.
He took out a Bingliang pill from the ninja bag, bit his teeth into pieces, and an indescribably strange taste filled his mouth instantly.
He doubted very much that the taste of this stuff was so unpalatable that it could refresh the ninja's mind.
"That's the only way to go." The girl pondered for a long time, then snorted irritably.
Everyone who heard it breathed a sigh of relief.
Yingshi has no reason to object, if she really objected, others should suspect that she has other plans.
Such an ending is just right.
Gennosuke Aoki unfolded the map, and the two routes were clearly marked.
"There is no need to mention the previous path. Regarding the next path, consider various factors and analyze it. This is the one on the map." He pointed to the clear new route on the map and said with a triumphant smile: "Next It's a three-day journey, and after three days, the team will arrive here, worship Spring City!"
The country of Tang, as its name suggests, is famous for its hot springs in the ninja world. It is a must-choice place for tourism and vacation. In the peaceful age, there are many tourists. In the future, it will be one of the favorite countries.
And Baiquan City is a typical Tang Country city. When the team stepped into the city, the unique atmosphere permeated, making people feel relaxed unconsciously.
"Let's find a hotel to rest for a while. Everyone has been exhausted for the past three days. Take this opportunity to take a good rest and enjoy the hot spring here." Moonlight Xingbo said with interest as he scanned the street.
"Teacher, are you just enjoying the hot spring? Are you expecting something else?" Kyoko Saito squinted at him, her round face full of doubts.
"What do you know, kid?" Yueguang Xingbo twitched the corner of his mouth, and cursed with a smile, but he didn't care.
"What else is there besides hot springs?"
Kuno Kuroyu, a dull guy, leaned over curiously. Of course, maybe he was pretending to be stupid, after all, he moved to Saito Kyoko's side.
"How would I know!" Saito Kyoko stared at him, gritted her teeth a few times, stomped her feet in embarrassment, and ran to the front of the line.
Xia Shu pretended to be stupid, he knew but he didn't say anything, otherwise it would be bad if he was identified as the old driver, and at least the human setting would collapse!
