Konoha's Peerless Peerless

Chapter 42 Caravan
The next day, Lan was woken up by the noisy sound of selling and buying outside the window, and went to the bed to untie the bandages tied to her body, and touched the smooth back. It seemed that the injury had completely healed.

He casually burned the bandage full of ointment smell with fire, and after blowing away the dust with the wind, Lan put on a light blue kimono, stood up, opened the door and walked out.

The woman at the counter was still the one who entertained him last night. Lan walked downstairs and looked outside the door, then turned around and stood in front of the counter and asked the woman, "Any news?"

The woman who was still a little sleepy heard Lan's voice, she cheered up and stood up with a smile and replied: "Yes, yes, I found out in the middle of the night, and there happened to be a caravan from the Kingdom of Ghosts coming from the Kingdom of Thunder." Back here, they will get up and return to the ghost country at noon today."

"Well, where is the leader of the caravan now?" Lan asked, looking directly at the woman.

The woman looked at Lan and smiled, and she didn't answer until Lan took out another bank note: "He is in a homestay on the left side of the West Street, if you want to see him, sir, I can send someone to guide you .”

When Lan heard the words, she nodded and said, "Then I will trouble you."

"It doesn't matter, serving the adults is what we should do." The woman said to Lan respectfully, then went to the window and opened it and shouted to a man sitting on the stone steps outside: "Hey——Xiaojiro, You take this lord to the West Street to find Ryuzoji Jiugui, the leader of the caravan from the Oni Land."

After hearing the woman's words, Kojiro, who was wearing simple clothes, quickly stood up and squinted his eyes and smiled at Lan who had gone out: "My lord, let me guide you."

"I'm sorry to trouble you." Lan casually took out a ten tael silver note and handed it to Lan Kojiro.

After receiving the money, Kojiro smiled and led Lan to the road.

……

In a homestay on West Street, Ryuzoji Hisaki, the leader of the Oni Land caravan, was sitting on a stool looking at the map with a sad face. A group of ninjas appeared at the junction of the Land of Earth and the Land of Ghosts. I don't know which country's wandering ninja.

Jiugui looked at the map with a sad face. After looking at it for a while, he put down the paper map and drank sake. It seemed that he had to go to Yanyin Village again to hire ninjas.

While he was drinking, there was a knock on the door.

Hearing the sound, Jiu Gui frowned and put down the wine cup in his hand, walked to the door, opened the door, only to see a ground snake standing respectfully beside a young man.

Because Lan was only wearing casual clothes and didn't bring a ninja gear, so he still didn't know Lan's identity.

Jiugui looked at Lan and asked, "My little brother, what can I do for you?"

Lan glanced at Jiugui, then waved Kojiro to leave, and when Kojiro walked away, Lan said to Jiugui: "I came to you to ask you something."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"Take me to the country of ghosts." Lan said expressionlessly.

"Hmm..." Jiugui pondered for a while, glanced at Lan, shook his head and said, "Sorry, our caravan does not send people away. If you want to go to the Land of Earth, brother, let your adults lead you to find a special caravan. Let’s transport people’s cavalry.”

Wen Yanlan frowned, transported the chakra to her hand and revealed it, then said in a deep voice: "I am a ninja, you provide me with a carriage, and I will protect your caravan."

Jiugui squinted at the chakra in Lanlan's hand, and then immediately put on a respectful expression and said to Lan: "So it's Mr. Ninja, since you want to go to the land of ghosts, then I will give you a car." Carriage, add another 5 taels to thank you, what do you think?"

Lan didn't think about making money from the guard business, so he nodded casually, and then said, "Yes, when are you going to leave?"

"Anytime." Jiugui smiled.

"Okay, I'll call my master, and we'll set off when we arrive." Lan nodded, and then communicated with Zhu Jian through spiritism.

After notifying Zhujian, Lan turned to Jiugui and said, "Okay, I've already finished notifying, you can ask your people to prepare, after another incense stick, my master will arrive here, and then we will Set off."

"Hey~ good." Jiugui responded to Lan with a smile. He thought Lan was the only ninja, but he didn't expect that he had a master. Adding a carriage can hire two ninjas. Although they are just wandering ninjas, he has never made such an income in his life.

Afterwards, Kuki went to gather his caravan, and when his caravan assembled, Hashirama who heard the news had already rushed over with Nanako and Kaorin.

After the caravan with ten carriages assembled, Lan let Nanako and Xianglin sit in the carriage specially prepared for them.

After the two got into the car, Lan walked up to Jiugui and said, "Let's go."

"Okay." Jiugui smiled at Lan, and then he beckoned his men to drive the carriage.

Not long after, the caravan left Plateau City.

Regardless of the complex terrain and barren land of the Land of Earth, their roads are surprisingly smooth. Although there are not many trees on the main commercial roads, there are many unique stones and high cliffs along the way.

Also, the Land of Earth is relatively closed, and bandits here are also very rare. Except for some bandit groups hiding at the national borders, there are very few robbers in the Land of Earth.

All the way was unimpeded, and after a two-week journey, the caravan arrived at the junction of the two countries, the Ghost Gate Canyon.

This canyon is fully controlled by the ghost country. In the long and narrow canyon, there are ghost sword grass unique to the ghost country. It is a kind of medicinal herb full of hard thorns. People in the ghost country often use this grass to make herbal medicine. .

Sitting in the carriage, Lan stared numbly at the cliff covered with weeds, looking at the endless front, Lan couldn't help feeling a little irritable.

For the past two weeks, Lan just sat in the carriage with Zhujian, sitting withered or withered every day, and the bones of the people who sat there were almost rusted.

Just when Lan was about to close his eyes and meditate as usual, Long Zuoji Jiugui hurriedly jumped out of the carriage and ran over.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Lan opened his eyes. Seeing his panicked expression, Lan asked, "What happened?"

"No, it's fine for now, but there are bandits on the uphill road ahead..." Jiugui said respectfully.

"Bandits." Lan's eyes lit up, he touched the Kunai in the ninja bag bloodthirstyly, then jumped off the carriage and said, "Leave those guys to me, let your caravan go on. "

After speaking, Lan informed Hashirama again, and then picked up Chakra and started to run quickly.

Seeing Lan leaving, Hashirama, who was lying on the carriage, wanted to get up and follow him, but after thinking about it, he dismissed this idea and let Lan go alone. Anyway, with his methods, it is difficult for ordinary Jnin to hurt him. What harm could he, a gang of robbers, do to him.

As time goes by, Lan has already lurked in the center of the bandit camp. This is a bandit gang with less than a hundred members. The only ones who can harm Lan are a wandering ninja at the peak of ninja and a samurai who possesses ninja chakra.

After investigating the strength of the robber gang, Lan slowly floated up from the soil.

As soon as Lan showed his head, a robber discovered Lan. Just as the robber who discovered Lan opened his mouth to shout, a needle-like needle spit out from Lan's mouth and pierced his throat.

As the robber fell, Lan got up and jumped out. At this time, other robbers also found Lan, and they shouted and put down the wine bottle, picked up their weapons and rushed towards Lan.

Looking at the robbers rushing over, Lan silently pressed his hand to the ground, "Earth Dune Huangquan Swamp."

With the coverage of chakra, the soil around Lan suddenly became like sticky mud, and those robbers who rushed to chop Lan were swallowed up by the mud before they could react.

It was easy to deal with the bandits who surrounded him. Lan took out the detonating talisman and attacked the bandits who had escaped by chance. With the flashes of flames, the screams rang out continuously, and the empty village was full of despair. shouts.

Lan slaughtered these inhuman bandits indifferently, and used Kunai to finish off the last living bandit, and Lan turned around to search for their belongings.

Just when Lan got up and went to their attic, a samurai wearing iron armor and holding a steel knife jumped down from the second floor carrying Chakra.

He raised the knife silently, trying to split Lan who was close to the attic into two halves.

Hearing the wind, Lan performed the substitute technique.

The samurai jumped down and split the stand-in wooden post in half with a knife. Before the smoke from the stand-in technique cleared, Lan's fireball swallowed the samurai and the attic together.

The raging fire was burning the wooden attic, Lan stood outside the attic calmly, watching the raging fire.

While Lan was watching coldly, a ninja who was on fire rushed out from the attic. Before he could take a few steps, a wooden thorn emerged from the ground and pierced his chest.

The flames burned the attic, and burned the bandit camp. The fragile wooden walls became torn apart by the flames. When Lan walked out of the camp, Jiugui followed the caravan.

Long Zuoji swallowed his saliva, looking at the bandit camp engulfed by the fire, and Lan standing in front of the sea of ​​flames, the ninja was indeed so terrifying, even a child could cause such great destructive power.

The caravan walked around the bandit camp and slowly climbed up the high slope. Once on this slope, you can see the capital of the ghost country from a distance.

The kingdom of ghosts, an ancient and extremely conservative country, has the oldest power in the entire ninja world, onmyoji and witches. Since the advent of the ninja era, the status of onmyojis and witches in the ninja world has gradually decreased. Only the Kingdom of Ghosts still has these two professions.

The reasons for keeping it are, first, because the witchcraft in the ghost kingdom is relatively strong, and second, because there are many ghosts sealed in the ghost kingdom. The ghosts and ghosts of the Legion.

Generations of witches have shouldered the mission of sealing monsters.

The current witch, Maitreya, was sitting in the temple with her eyes closed. While she was sitting quietly, an evil black figure appeared in her mind, and a blue figure appeared along with it.
