Konoha starts with a young bird

Chapter 37 The Uesugi Family
"I can't walk anymore, take a break, take a break!"

Zhou Lai was lying on a tree trunk and didn't want to get up.

Xiyan had no choice but to sit next to him with a helpless look.

"Captain, we're from Anbu! If you don't go back to the Eagles, you won't be skinned!" Xi Yan looked at Zhou Lai mischievously.

"It's okay, it's okay, this task is difficult, we successfully completed it, no matter how messed up, he won't do anything to us."

Zhou Lai was lying on a branch with his limbs drooping, tilting his head to look at Xi Yan below and smiling.

"Oh..." Xiyan sighed silently.He took off the mask on his face, jumped to the shade of a branch next to Zhou Lai and looked up at the sky,
As for the mask on Zhou Lai's face, I haven't worn it since I took it off last night
The two of them chatted casually in this sunny shade, and the sun slowly began to slide from the center to the southwest corner.

The land of fire is mostly dense jungle, and many places are sparsely populated. The surrounding small animals don't care about the two humanoid creatures on the tree, and they are still chasing and fighting.

Zhou Lai's drooping eyelids gradually closed completely.

I don't know how long it has passed, but Zhou Lai heard a soft call from Xi Yan's side,
"Alai, Alai,."

"what happened?"

Zhou Lai rubbed his eyes, and looked at Xi Yan on the opposite side with hazy eyes. At this time, the forest was already a little dark.

"Shh!"

Xi Yan stretched out a finger and put it near her mouth, signaling Zhou Lai to keep quiet.

Zhou Lai was shocked all of a sudden, stood up with a bang, and quietly walked to the branch where Xi Yan was.

Xiyan looked at him, pointed to the dense forest on the right, and gave him a silent mouth.

"listen!"

Zhou Lai jumped down lightly, and quietly put his ears on the ground

Suddenly, the sound of chaotic footsteps came to Zhou Lai's ears very clearly.

It was very similar to the sound of rushing on the road when fleeing. Although it could not be ruled out that the sound was made by animals, since Xiyan sensed something, it couldn't be the sound of animals.

Shang Xiang exchanged glances with Xi Yan, but got two different decisions.

Zhou Lai wanted to see what was going on.

But Xi Yan obviously wanted to avoid these unnecessary troubles.

But in the end, the two reached an agreement, and with the mentality of having nothing to do with themselves, they hid themselves to observe the development of the matter.

Quietly cast a little Anbu's secret technique on herself and Xiyan, and the aura of the two disappeared.
As long as the opponent doesn't have a particularly strong perceptual ninja, they won't notice the existence of the two.

Not long after, the sound of hurried footsteps came from far to near, and Zhou Lai could clearly feel a ninja approaching nearby.

But to their surprise, the other party stopped at a place out of sight of the two.

Then there was a burst of fierce fighting!
"Lingya, take the young master and leave quickly, we will drag them for you."

A loud shout in the distance made Zhou Lai frown.

The other party is not an ordinary person, but he looks like some noble son from the name.
Time passed step by step, and the fight in the distance was approaching little by little, but the sound of the battle became smaller and smaller, as if one side was quickly crushed,
Sure enough, as Zhou Lai had expected, after a while, he saw a tall, handsome ninja running towards the front with a luxuriously dressed woman on his back.

There are two ninjas in black and masks chasing after them.

"Young master, we seem to be unable to escape this time!" The ninja with the woman looked gloomy at the two enemies who kept pulling into the distance behind him.

There was an indescribable regret in the tone, unwilling
"Put me down!"

The woman grabbed Kunai at the waist behind her back, turned her head and looked fiercely at the ninja approaching behind her.

"Even if I die, I can't dishonor the honor of the Uesugi family!"

The guards immediately stopped in their tracks, squatted down and let the young master behind him down, and then stood in front of the young master, staring at the enemies who rushed towards them.

The woman also hastily put on a fighting posture, but the luxurious kimono on her body has obviously become a burden.

Ding!Ding!Ding!
The guard collided with the two people in front of him in an instant. Although the enemy tried his best to avoid the man in front of him, he rushed towards the woman behind him.

But the guards stopped the two of them with their own strength.There is also a faint tendency to gradually take the initiative in the battle between the two sides.

But not long after, a large number of enemies chased after them and surrounded them.

The guard also hurriedly started the battle and jumped to the side of the young master, watching the men in black around vigilantly.

The two sides did not speak a word, and the man in black launched an attack after the captain in black gave an order.

Without the slightest suspense, in less than half a moment, the guards were half-kneeling on the ground covered in injuries, holding the ninja sword in one hand, and looking desperately at the young master who was captured by them.

The woman was obviously a rich princess who didn't exercise regularly, and was taken down by the enemy in less than half a breath before the guard was injured.

But her eyes were unusually calm staring at the headed man in black, her beautiful face was full of heroism,

"Young master, come back with me!" Hei Yi stood in front of the woman, looking down at her and said.

"Go back and tell Uesugiba that our Uesugi family is defeated, but we are also a tough guy with backbone! Not his kind of beast who treats others like a dog!"

The man in black who was grabbing the woman's hair didn't wait for the captain's order, and slammed on the woman's shoulder, turned around and slapped her in the face!

The guard who was seriously injured on the opposite side jumped up in an instant, raised his ninja sword and was about to save the young master, but was kicked in the chest by another man in black, hit a tree trunk and couldn't get up.

The woman under the heavy blow still remained awake, half kneeling on the ground, covering her swollen side face, wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth, staring coldly at the captain of the man in black,
He didn't pay attention to the guard who just hit her.

"Winners and losers, life and death are fate, but I hope you will give me and Lingya a happy time for the sake of the Uesugi family's cultivation of you for so many years!"

"Sorry young master, Master Ba wants to see you alive! He has wanted you for a long time!"

The captain of the man in black bowed respectfully to the woman, then got up and said.

The woman's eyes are still calm at this time, but there is a trace of despair
"Take it away!" The captain of the man in black waved his hand and said sharply.

"Alai, I want to help them." Xiyan looked at the scene below and couldn't help clenching her fists.He looked at Zhou Lai with a firm tone.

"Ugh"

Zhou Lai sighed helplessly. He had expected this situation long ago since the woman was caught but she didn't kill her immediately.
And he judged that there was a high probability that Xiyan would choose to rescue her, after all, he knew Xiyan very well.

But this is a hot potato. From the woman's temperament week, I know that this is not an activity that ordinary people can participate in.
And as the conversation between the two sides deepened, Zhou Lai didn't want to provoke such family disputes even more.

Zhou Lai looked at Xi Yan again, but the firmness in her eyes remained unwavering!
"Okay~" Zhou Lai nodded helplessly.
