Konoha's Peerless Peerless

Chapter 76 Loulan's Farewell
At dusk, residents of the ancient kingdom of Loulan rushed back from the newly cultivated fields carrying tools, and countless acquaintances stopped on the street to chat.

In front of the south gate of the ancient Loulan Kingdom, Lingzi leaned against the wall and looked forward.

In the distance are sand dunes covered by orange sunlight. Looking at the empty and lifeless sand dunes, Suzuko can't help but feel disappointed. No, according to her estimation, Lan should be back soon, why hasn't she come back yet? Woolen cloth.

Suzuko pursed her lips, shook her hair, and immediately planned to continue to use her special ability to sense Lan. Just as she was about to sense Lan, Lan appeared on the sand dune in a white cloak.

Seeing the blurry figure on the sand dune, Suzuko couldn't help but feel agitated. She was agitated for a while, and then she calmed down the agitation.

The moment Suzuko calmed down, Lan had already stepped on the golden sand and walked in front of her.

Suzuko looked up at Lan, opened her mouth, but didn't say a word.

Seeing Lingzi like this, Lan lost her momentum and grinned slightly, asking, "Are you waiting for me here?"

"Uh-huh."

Suzuko nodded with a smile, opened her slightly dry mouth and said, "I'll wait for you here, my mother is currently handling government affairs in the palace, come with me."

After speaking, Lingzi turned around and walked into Loulan City together with Lan.

After crossing the ten-meter-long city cave, Lan entered the ancient kingdom of Loulan. As soon as he entered, he heard countless laughter and chatter.

Beside the spacious street, Loulan people in simple clothes were standing at the door of their houses talking with their friends.

When they saw Suzuko, they would stop talking and bow slightly in salute, and Suzuko would nod in return.

Just like that, the two of them walked slowly across the street and walked to the gate of the palace. Guarding the gate of the palace were twenty terracotta warriors holding long daggers.

When the terracotta warriors saw Lan approaching, they half-kneeled and saluted.

Although they didn't make a sound, Lan could still sense the respect in their hearts.

Slightly raised his hand to signal the terracotta warriors to stand up, Lan then followed Lingzi into the palace.

As soon as she entered, the door of the palace was closed. At this time, Lingzi suddenly gasped and took a deep breath. Lingzi immediately stared at Lan with a smile and said, "I'm still not used to this kind of life. Before Loulan was rebuilt, they didn't respect me so much, but now that Loulan is rebuilt, they suddenly respect me and my mother so much, which made me a little uncomfortable."

"Are you not used to it... Actually, you should try to be more natural. You are their princess, the future Queen of Loulan. They respect you because you will bring them peace and happiness. You give them what they want." Yes, that's why they show their respect to you." Lan Ping looked at Suzuko and said.

"Hmm... is that so..."

Suzuko looked confused. She raised her head in confusion, looked at Lan, and asked, "But I don't think I can give them anything. Peace is because of you, and happiness is because of them. I don't think I can give them anything at all." Without them, I am a little scared now, afraid that I will not be able to be an excellent queen like my mother in the future."

Having said that, Suzuko immediately lowered her head.

Lan looked at Suzuko quietly, raised her head and said, "No one can do well at the beginning. If you really want to be like Sara, then I suggest you to study hard with your mother."

Just as I was talking, a door was suddenly pushed open, and I saw Sara, who was wearing a queen's costume, slowly walking out of the house with her hair down. Make some jingle jingle sounds.

With the sound of jingling bells, Sara walked up to Lan. She rubbed Lingzi's hair with a smile, looked at Lan, and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

Hearing this, Lan nodded slightly, and replied: "This is what I should do. As long as I am still alive, no one will trouble you Loulan in the future. After a night of rest, I will go to Shayin Village tomorrow. Talk to Luo Sha and see if you can build a ninja village here."

Hearing that Lan was leaving tomorrow, Lingzi and Sara showed a hint of reluctance on their faces. They looked at Lan reluctantly, and asked in unison: "Why are you leaving so soon? Don't you like it?" Loulan?"

"No, it's not."

Lan smiled and shook his head at the two, explaining: "I made a big fuss in the capital of yellow sand, I'm afraid Luo Sha is having a headache because of what I did, and I promised him to kill less people before, but in the end, Haha, actually it’s nothing, the main reason is that I don’t like other people waiting for me, so I should get rid of all the things that need to be done at once, so as to save trouble.”

After hearing the explanation, Sara felt a little better. She looked at Lan quietly, and looked at Lan's slightly immature face, and couldn't help saying: "Mr. Lan, your personality and your age are really too different. Like."

"Ah, yes, it doesn't look like it, anyway, I am me anyway, and it has nothing to do with me."

Lan shook his head and laughed, then looked at the beam of light shooting into the hall and said to Sara: "Sarah, can you help me find a room, I want to take a rest."

"Well, please come with me."

Sara nodded to the slightly tired Lan, and then led Lan to find a room that wasn't too small.

The floor of the room was covered with blankets handmade by Loulan people, and in the corner was a large bed covered with white velvet. Besides these, there were also some furniture carved with patterns.

Lan took a few glances, then turned around and nodded to Sara, "Let's go here, I'm going to rest first."

"Well, I wish you a sweet dream."

Sara nodded to Lan, then took Suzuko's hand and left.

Watching the two leave, Lan closed the door and lay down on the bed. Not long after, he fell into a deep sleep.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, the moon rises, and Loulan under the moonlight is quiet.

On the top floor of the palace, in Sara's room, the candlelight that illuminates the entire room is constantly flickering with the night wind. On the big bed with curtains on the east side of the room, Bell is sleeping with a blanket and eyes closed. .

Sara sat on the edge of the bed, glanced at the sleeping bell, and then turned her gaze out of the window. The night wind blowing on her face made her more sober.

Looking at the full moon hanging high in the sky, Sarah was silent.

While Sara Mochizuki was silent, there was a creaking sound from the door, and Qianji in her nightgown came in from outside.

Entering the room, Qianji first glanced at Suzuko, who was deeply asleep, and then walked to Sara. She stood beside Sara and looked out the window a few times, saying, "That guy is back, right?"

"Ah."

Sarah had no bricks, but she still responded to Qianji.

Hearing the response, Qianji pulled the chair and sat down. She sat in front of Sara, looked at her daughter who looked up at the moon, and asked, "Sara, what are you thinking? Why do I feel that your heart is a little messed up."

"..."

Sarah didn't answer, she was still looking at the moon, and the moonlight was shining on her bright red hair.

Seeing that Sara didn't respond, Qianji sighed, raised her head, looked at Yue and said, "Is it because of that guy? Sara, he disturbed your heart, right?"

"..." Sara was silent for a while, then closed her eyes and nodded, "Well, actually, I don't know how to face him. It's been more than ten years, but he's still so young."

"Are you troubled by this..." Qianji turned her head to Suzuko, and said, "Actually, the moment you dripped his blood into the secret medicine, you should have thought that today, you and him are not in the same world." Man, he's a ninja and you're a queen..."

"People who are not from the same world, why are there so many intersections, mother, what do you mean by love?" Sara asked suddenly.

This sentence stunned Qianji, she didn't understand love either, Queen Loulan relied on Loulan's secret medicine for asexual reproduction, she didn't know much about love at all, even though it was true, she knew more than Sa Rado, so she was ready to speak out her understanding of love.

But the moment she opened her mouth, Sarah suddenly turned her head to look at Ling Zi curled up under the blanket and said, "Mother, do you think Ling Zi is his child?"

"..."

Qianji was silent, and after a long time, she shook her head and said, "I don't know if she is that guy's child, but I know that she is your daughter, my granddaughter, and the future queen of Loulan. I am silent on this question, Sara, you have grown up, you should understand that some things cannot be forced, although I don’t understand love, but I know one thing, that thing cannot be forced.”

"Ugh--"

After finishing speaking, Qianji sighed again, she stood up and shook her head and said, "It's getting late, go to sleep, don't wear yourself out."

Then Qianji walked out.

Seeing the door close, Sarah turned her head and looked out of the window. Just as she turned around, the curled up bell suddenly moved.

……

The stars moved, and in a blink of an eye, the sun rose from the horizon, and the bright sunlight shone on Lan through the window.

After being illuminated by the sun, Lan woke up frowning. He sat up straight, rubbed his eyes and looked around, then got up and jumped under the bed.

Walking to the window, pushing the window open, suddenly, the morning breath rushed in from the window.

Smelling the fragrance of flowers and plants, Lan took a deep breath. She slept so deeply last night that she didn't even wake up. She moved her body slightly, and then opened the door and walked out.

As soon as he went out, he saw Sarah with red and swollen eyes.

Seeing Sarah, Lan immediately greeted her.

"Good morning, how did you sleep last night?"

"Very good." Sara responded, looked at Lan and asked, "Are you going to leave now?"

"..." Lan nodded and said, "That's right."

"Ah—" Although Sara knew Lan would say that, she still couldn't help feeling a little disappointed, sighed, and said, "Then I'll give it to you."

Seeing that Sara was about to send her off, Lan immediately waved her hands and said, "No need, you should deal with Loulan's government affairs. After all, you have only returned to the country not long ago, so there must be a lot of things to deal with."

Seeing what Lan said, Sara nodded slightly disappointed and said, "Okay, be careful on the road, and come back when you have time, that room will always be reserved for you."

"Well, I see."

Lan smiled at Sarah, then got up and jumped out from the window ledge.

Seeing Lan leaving suddenly, Sarah couldn't help but ran out of the window, and Lan disappeared as soon as she ran over.

In this way, Lan left Loulan. Not long after Lan left Loulan, a Bactrian camel carrying a water bag and a general rushed out of the ancient kingdom of Loulan.
