The Shimada Family's Ninja Journey

Chapter 497 Doubt and Robbery

"Several, this is here."

After rescuing Taro's son, the group followed Taro back to his home.

Not to mention, Taro's house has a small courtyard and occupies a large area. In the countryside, it can be considered luxurious.

Think about it, too, in a place like the countryside, land means wealth, and Taro has such a large piece of land, it is impossible for him to be a poor peasant.

"Uncle Taro, your family has so much land, why does your son still go hunting?" Hanzo looked around for a week and asked curiously.

Yuyi and Yucun grew up with golden keys in their mouths, and Hamamaru and White Snake Immortal were not human after all, so they didn't notice this.

That is, Hanzo, who has been Hokage for so many years and has handled countless government affairs, only then noticed this problem.

"Hey..." Uncle Taro heard the words, and a wry smile suddenly appeared on his face: "If this brat is willing to farm with me honestly, there are so many things..."

As he spoke, he put his son on his back on the bed, tucked him in the quilt, and said, "You should have heard just now that this child is the second boy of my family, and his elder brother is also my elder brother." My son died at the hands of robbers on the way into the city..."

Speaking of this, Uncle Taro's complexion was a little old, and he said dejectedly: "After that, this kid will practice his skills so that he can avenge his elder brother, and he won't go farming with me anymore. Just follow the hunter team up the mountain to hunt, this kid is very stubborn, and there is nothing I can do about it."

Speaking of this, a trace of gratitude flashed across his face, and he said to Yu Yi: "If you hadn't rescued me today, I really don't know what I would do in the future."

"It's just a trivial matter, uncle don't need to care about it so much." After all, Yu Yi is only a fledgling young man now, facing Taro's eager gratitude, he also looks a little embarrassed.

"What about your wife?" At this moment, Hamura suddenly asked.

When the uncle heard the words, a proud look suddenly appeared on his face, and he said, "My wife was chosen by Master Hui Ye to help Master Hui Ye sacrifice the sacred tree. She is the pride of our family."

"Sacrifice to the sacred tree?" Yuyi and Yumura's expressions suddenly became a little strange.

They knew that their mother had been nurturing a sacred tree, but Kaguya Ji never let the two of them get close to the back mountain where the sacred tree was.

Choose someone to sacrifice to the sacred tree?It was the first time they had heard of it.

Hanzo and the two sages noticed the strange expressions of Yuyi and Yumura, and Gamamaru shook his head at Hanzo and the white snake sage, signaling them not to speak, just let it be.

Hanzo nodded slightly, while Immortal White Snake spat out the letter without saying anything.

Uncle Taro didn't notice the undercurrent between the few people, but he suddenly clapped his hands and said, "Hey, it's far away, it's far away, you can sit down casually, or go for a walk in the yard. I'll prepare lunch for you first."

With that said, Taro hurriedly walked out of the house.

After Taro left, Yuyi and Yumura looked at each other subconsciously, and then Yuyi said, "Let's go for a stroll in the yard."

"Okay, you guys go, let's sit in the room for a while." Hamowan kicked his legs and jumped onto a chair.

Hanzo and Immortal White Snake also nodded.

Yuyi and Yumura smiled at one person and two animals, then turned and walked out of the room.

"Brother, why do you think mother chose so many people to sacrifice to the sacred tree?" As soon as he went out, Yumura couldn't help turning his head and said to Yuyi.

Yu Cun is a little simple, but not stupid. When they come to the countryside, they can meet a person whose family members are chosen to enshrine the sacred tree.

It is conceivable that when zoomed in on the entire continent, how many people have been selected by Princess Kaguya?

"How do I know." Yuyi shook his head helplessly: "Mother never let us get close to the sacred tree, it's not like you don't know."

"But... but it seems that mother never arranged for someone to send food and clothing to the back mountain..." Hamura murmured.

If those people were really just raised by Kaguya Ji in the back mountain to worship the sacred tree, then Kaguya Ji must also provide basic board and lodging for these people, right?
But now...

Yuyi and Yumura looked at each other, and some terrible guesses could not help but appear in their hearts.

"It just happened that we met this time. Since my mother didn't want to tell us, we'll check it out ourselves. What do you think, Yumura?" Yuyi was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked his younger brother.

Hamura didn't hesitate when he heard the words, and immediately clapped his hands: "Okay, mother seems to be busy with something recently, we don't need to rush back, let's check it out this time."

While the two were discussing in low voices, Taro appeared in the sight of Yuyi and Yumura carrying an old hen in the distance.

The two stopped talking immediately, pretending to be wandering around.

Taro also saw the two brothers at this time, but he was in a hurry to deal with the old hen in his hand, so he didn't have time to say anything to the brothers, he just nodded towards Yuyi and Yumura, and hurriedly carried the chicken to the courtyard go.

Seeing Taro disappear around the corner, Yuyi and Yumura continued to discuss.

However, at this moment, a sharp chicken crow came suddenly, accompanied by the sound of something falling to the ground.

Yuyi and Yumura froze for a moment, and then they both rushed towards the corner where Taro disappeared.

Turning the corner, it was the place where Taro's family slaughtered poultry and livestock, but there was no one there at this time, only a hen was pierced by a wooden thorn as thick as an arm, but Taro disappeared .

Yuyi and Yumura's expressions changed drastically. Yumura first closed his eyes, and then opened them. His normal eyes turned into pure white.

"Blind eyes!"

Hamura let out a low snort, the blood vessels centered on the corner of the eye, protruding towards the temple, and the 360-degree viewing angle was seen by Hamura.

And Yu Yi's eyes flickered for a while, and then, strange circles appeared in his eye sockets.

It is the eye of reincarnation.

Yuyi and Yumura inherited Kaguya Hime's two pupil skills by nature, but when they sneaked out, in order to avoid some troubles, the two used some small tricks to cover up their eyes that were different from ordinary people.

But until now, the two of them couldn't care less.

In terms of insight, the white eyes are still stronger than the reincarnation eyes, not to mention that Otsuki Yucun's white eyes are inherited from Otsuki Kaguya, and its magical effect is far from comparable to that of his descendants thousands of years later.

"Over there." Hamura immediately locked on to a chakra, which was a chakra moving at high speed underground, and Hamura didn't need to think much to know that it was their goal.

"Chase!"

Yuyi and Yumura set off at the same time, chasing after that chakra.
