Lu Mingfei Returned From Death

Mai Shutoku is eight years old and lives in a church-like school.

The school is surrounded by thick stone walls, and the stone walls are also covered with electrified barbed wire to prevent children in the school from escaping.

The fixed ritual before going to bed every day is that the nuns kiss the children's heads, and then the powerful guards add chains to the iron door.

But even so, every year there are children who try their best to escape from here, but what they want is not a good life, just for the freedom.

Of course, no one can escape. Every time they are captured, they will be disciplined more severely, or even put under house arrest in a small room.

As for why she was sent to this unfree place, Mai Shutoku probably knew the reason. It should be because of her bloodline.

It is said that she comes from a family that inherits the dragon bloodline. When she was five years old, her elders gave her and her sister Shude Aki a bloodline assessment.

The result of the evaluation was that Shutoku Aki was born with a stable bloodline, while Shutoku Mai, her sister who was born earlier than her, was judged to be born with a flaw in her bloodline and could go berserk at any time.

So she was quickly taken away and sent to this place in the mountains to study.

Since then, her parents have never seen her again, and she has never seen her sister again. The people who replaced her parents became men wearing strange black clothes.

Every year on her birthday, men in black with different appearances would visit her as a parent.

They always wear luxurious black suits, and the linings of the suits are always painted with various pictures of ferocious ghosts and gods.

Mai Shutoku knew that these men were the so-called law enforcers. In this country, every mixed race lived under the supervision of law enforcers, and they maintained the order of mixed race society in the shadows.

Regardless of whether they look majestic or gentle, when they encounter out-of-control bloodlines, they will mercilessly kill them.

In addition to bringing so-called birthday gifts, they also ask all kinds of strange questions, each of which goes deep into Mai Shutoku's privacy.

Just because their bloodline is stable and powerful, they will always control the fate of their children.

During this period, some of them also comforted Mai Shutoku, saying:

"Based on your physical condition, as long as you can live a stable life until you are forty, you will hopefully be free. By then we will not see you through the glass, but will only go to your home once a year."

"Also, thirty-two years."

Petite Mai sat in front of the glass and counted the time.

She sometimes wonders, what can she do after she leaves home at the age of forty?

Are you going to find your sister Shude Aki?

Although she disliked her parents, Aki was very well-behaved in front of her when she was a child.

Today is her eighth birthday, and as usual, the law enforcers should also be here.

I just don’t know if there will be any surprises, such as being able to meet my sister.

Soon, a piece of news came through that I don’t know if it was a surprise or not.

"A top ninja from the Fuma family has taken a fancy to you among all the children with questionable blood in the country, and wants you to learn ninjutsu from her. Are you willing?"

This year's black enforcer asked.

"I am willing."

Just looking at the law enforcer with dark eyes, Mai Shutoku agreed.

"It will be very hard." The law enforcer reminded with a smile, "And if you are not careful, you may face death."

"Death is nothing compared to freedom, even if it is only relative freedom."

Looking at the law enforcer, Mai Shutoku thought silently in her heart.

Moreover, she also has a reason to become stronger.

Seeing that the other party just stared at him without speaking, the law enforcer suppressed the smile on his face and said, "Well, you can follow me to the Feng Mo family's territory."

"You jump down. If you jump down, I will teach you real ninja knowledge."

On the edge of the cliff, Shutoku Mai's teacher Fuuma Kaiseko said this.

This mountain forest with cliffs is the territory of the Feng Mo family, one of the five other families in Sheqi.

During her first ninja training here, Mai Shutoku saw such a battle.

There was no safety rope or parachute. Looking at the unclear fog under the cliff, Mai Shutoku thought she had heard wrong.

She just stared at the teacher blankly. She didn't know if the other person was really teaching her ninja-related techniques, or if it was just a scam.

"Jump down or go back, you can choose for yourself."

Kaashiko Fuma, who looked a little serious, was not comforted and just continued to talk coldly.

"it is good."

Mai Shutoku jumped down resolutely.

But instead of falling straight into the abyss as imagined, there was a safety net in the mist that caught her.

She lay on the Internet and looked at the sky, smiling as she looked at it.

"Of the ten people I selected, only one dared to jump down, and the person who dared to jump down just cried out in fear after finding out that he had narrowly escaped death.

So, why are you laughing? "

The confused voice of Fuma Kaashiko came from above.

"I didn't think about anything. I smiled just because the clouds were flowing above and below me. It felt very comfortable to lie here." Mai Shutoku said.

This was the first time she smiled so happily after leaving home.

"You'll make a great ninja."

After a moment of silence, Kazuko Fuma commented slowly.

Afterwards, Mai Shutoku moved in here smoothly. Under the arrangement of Fuma Kashiko, the room she lived in was only separated by a wall, and the training place was right outside the door.

Just as Mai Shutoku made the bed and stood outside the door enjoying the real air, a man's voice came from above:

"Your name is Mai Shutoku, right?"

"Who?"

Mai Shutoku immediately looked warily towards the direction from which the sound came.

The person talking to her was a good-looking man wearing a black windbreaker.

He just sat on the tree like this, staring at Mai Shutoku without blinking, staring at her, making her uncomfortable for a while.

After looking up and down, the man spoke, "My name is Lu Mingfei, the new thug of the Feng Mo family. Because I saw your brave performance today, I thought of coming over to get to know you."

As he said this, Lu Mingfei also tore off his windbreaker, only to see pictures of ghosts and gods that were very common among Feng Mo families on the lining.

"Okay, now that we've gotten to know each other, you can leave."

Jiude Mai said to Lu Mingfei coldly.

She has never been very fond of the executors of the Sheqi Eight Family.

Looking at the little girl with cold eyes and straight black hair below, Lu Mingfei waved to her, smiled and left.

After that, Mai Shutoku began her own ninja training.

"This is today's introductory training. It won't be over until I come back."

After Fuma Kaashiko asked Mai Shutoku to hang herself from the beam with her hands, he placed a nail board under it and left.

In this way, Mai Shutoku hung for a whole day. Because if she fell, there would be more holes in her body. She was so tired that she lost consciousness and did not dare to let go.

It wasn't until night that Prince Fuma came back and put it down.

Because her hands were weak and she couldn't hold the dishes, Mai Shutoku returned to her yard without eating.

Sitting under the only big tree in the yard, Mai Shutoku didn't know if she should cry to relieve the pain in her arm.

In the past, in that closed place, when she felt uncomfortable, she would hide herself under the quilt and cry a little. The advantage of this was that she would not feel uncomfortable the next day.

This seems to be her talent.

"You can hang up for a whole day in the first training. You are very strong."

As if God was trying to block her tear ducts, Lu Mingfei squatted in front of Jiude Mai like a shadow.

"Everyone is trained like this, so you don't need to be so complimentary." Mai Shutoku imitated an adult's way of speaking and said coldly to Lu Mingfei.

She doesn't know why, but recently this man always appears beside her for no apparent reason, and then always encourages her for no apparent reason.

If he hadn't been unable to detect his traces in advance every time, Mai Shutoku felt that she would definitely let Lu Mingfei come and experience the ninja skills she had just learned.

"No, no," Lu Mingfei retorted, "As far as I know, people who train as ninjas in other areas can't last as long as you do. They often fall off after a few hours."

"Then aren't they dead?" Mai Shutoku couldn't help but ask.

"Wrong!" Lu Mingfei said as he sat next to her.

"According to what I have observed, every teacher will silently observe your performance somewhere after setting up the nail board and leaving.

Your teacher is one of the people who show up and take down the pinboard as soon as they see any sign of a student not being able to hold on. "

"Is that so?" Mai Shutoku turned her face away and asked, "But how could you, a thug, observe this?"

"Thugs are also divided into upper, middle and lower levels. It just so happens that I belong to the highest level." Lu Mingfei boasted.

"But let's not talk about that for now. I see that you haven't eaten tonight. Would you like some roasted fruit?"

As if by magic, Lu Mingfei took out a transparent box with a dozen small dumplings inside.

After making a sound, Mai Shutoku looked directly at the yakiniku, but she said, "My hands have no strength now, so I can't eat these snacks."

"It's easy, I'll feed you."

Lu Mingfei smiled and looked at the petite director Mai.

The Mai I knew was a sexy, beautiful part-time worker who also loved to make little jokes.

And now Mai is a little girl who is always cold to others, but has an upright attitude.

It's hard to say who is better and who is worse. Lu Mingfei only knows that Mai is a very interesting girl no matter what period she is in.

Smelling the aroma of the roasted fruit, Mai Shutoku said in a weak voice, "I'll eat it just this once."

"Uh-huh."

Lu Mingfei nodded while taking out the roasted fruit and feeding it to this cute little loli with long black hair.

With only a few mouthfuls of a small dumpling, Mai Shutoku quickly finished all the food in the box.

After exhaling a comfortable breath, Mai Shutoku squinted her eyes and looked at the stars in the sky.

Leaning against the tree, she felt comfortable.

This is a feeling you will never enjoy in a church school.

It was like she actually had some free time.

"If you had the chance to go outside, would you?"

After enjoying the beautiful starry sky together, Lu Mingfei, who put his hands behind his head and leaned against the tree trunk on the other side, suddenly asked.

"What do you mean?" Xiao Mai asked, turning her head.

"Well, let's wait until you learn all the ninja skills." After thinking for a moment, Lu Mingfei said, "Before that, I can help you relieve the pain after training."

Soon after Lu Mingfei put his hand on her shoulder, and a green light glowed slightly, Shutoku Mai felt the pain and weakness in her shoulder disappear.

"Is this what the eight Sheqi families call the spirit of speech?" Mai Shutoku thought thoughtfully.

In the period that followed, Mai Shutoku conducted very comprehensive ninja training.

The first is balance training.

According to Kazoko Fuma, ninjas need to be able to balance on a variety of surfaces, including walking in a straight line, walking on sloping roofs, climbing trees, and more.

So she walked, without any protective equipment, along the tightrope her teacher had drawn between the cliffs.

Then there’s flexibility training.

The purpose of flexibility training is to increase joint flexibility and range of motion, which is important when moving through tight spaces while performing tasks.

Perhaps because of her extraordinary talent, Mai Shutoku can be said to be able to get started with these trainings.

Especially the flexibility of her body, even the unsmiling Fuma Kashiko couldn't help but praise her.

Because of her excellent performance and always calm psychological quality, she soon came into contact with the real skill training of ninja.

For example, weapon use, concealed weapon throwing, unarmed combat, etc.

During this period, Lu Mingfei always appeared in the yard where she rested from time to time.

Apart from eating with her and watching the scenery together, the most common thing they did was to practice ninja sparring together.

In Lu Mingfei's hands, Shutoku Mai consciously learned many superb fighting skills.

As for those bad tastes like feeding and playing, she reluctantly tolerated it because the other party always trained with him.

In just one month, she learned all the skills of a ninja. Now all she has to do is grow up and continue training for a long time.

Until one day, Kazuko Fuma died in the mission.

According to the Fuma family's family rules, Shutoku Mai needs to become a dead warrior after she has no elder teacher, thus becoming the shadow of the Fuma family.

Afterwards, the Fuma family held a grand funeral for Fuma Kaashiko.

At the end of the funeral, Mai Shutoku will become a dead soldier, and she will no longer be free.

In the empty room, Mai Shutoku tied a small sword to her back, then stood in front of the mirror and looked at her appearance.

Although all the furniture here has been moved to her so-called "new home" by the Fuma family, Mai Shutoku doesn't quite agree with this unfree ending.

Therefore, she decided to leave here.

Even this large mountain belongs to the Feng Demon Family and is heavily guarded.

It's a pity that I didn't get to say goodbye to my obscure friend when I left.

Thinking of this, Mai Shutoku turned around and left here without hesitation.

Fatigue and pain, these were the feelings that Shuudoku Mai felt when she escaped from Fuma's house.

Because of the escape operation, the Feng Mo family sent countless ninjas to hunt her in this mountain.

Even though she was talented and intelligent, and her ninjutsu was far better than that of those sixteen or seventeen-year-old children, she still found it difficult to survive with so many hybrids chasing her.

Hiding in a gap in the mountain wall, Mai Shutoku listened to the sounds of movement coming from above. She wiped her face and her hands were covered in blood.

"Death on the road to freedom seems to be a pretty good ending."

In a state of exhaustion and coldness, Mai Shutoku thought about this vaguely.

"It's so warm."

I don't know how long it took, but Mai Shutoku noticed that the touch in front of her was actually a little warm.

Suddenly waking up, she found that she was being carried on a man's back.

Just when she reached out to touch the knife, a familiar voice came from the front:

"Why didn't you tell me when you left? It made me look for you for a long time."

When she realized that the person carrying her was Lu Mingfei, who always played with her, Shutoku Mai immediately dropped her guard and said in a normal tone:

"You saved me, tell me, what do you want?"

At this time, she didn't think there was anything wrong with Lu Mingfei leaving Feng Mo's house.

Look, didn't she escape from Feng Mo's house?

"I'm short of people here, especially a beautiful ninja. Can you come and be a ninja for me?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"Well," Mai Shutoku thought for a moment and then said, "It's not impossible, but as the strongest ninja, I have to have my own signature makeup and the best treatment in the world."

"There will be makeup, and the treatment will be the best. With me, you can become the freest person in the world."

Lu Mingfei affirmed. (End of chapter)
