A Wishing Konoha Ninja
Chapter 48 Investigation
When Feng Jianren and the others got closer, they saw rows of wooden houses located at the foot of the mountain not far ahead.
The fog here is also lighter than in the forest, and you can barely see farther into the village.
What is strange is that it is already dark, but there is no light in the whole village, and it is pitch black as far as the eye can see.
At this time, Ahu had been put down. He looked at the uninhabited village in front of him, which seemed like a foreign land, and he felt that if he walked in, he might never come out again.
Ahu trembled and said to the others: "Maybe we went to the wrong place. This is not the mission location."
Kato looked at the village ahead and replied: "Whether it is our mission location or not, we have to go in and take a look to find out."
After saying that, he set an example and walked forward.
Kazami Shinobu looked at Mamoru: "Do you want us to help you again?"
Mamoru struggled for a while and then shook his head. After seeing Kazami Shinobi and Ryu Hayato, they turned around and followed the teacher's back into the village.
"Wait for me"
Ahu quickly followed.
When Kazami Shinobu and the others walked to the entrance of the village, they happened to see a huge rock placed on the roadside with the words "Eternal Life Village" engraved on it.
Kato Dan and his three disciples glanced at each other, and now they knew that this village was the destination of the mission without any investigation.
After entering the village, Kazumi Shinobu discovered that most of the wooden houses here were in decay and were covered with spider webs. It didn't look like anyone lived there permanently.
"what"
At this moment, Ahu suddenly shouted again.
The other members of Team [-] who were observing the surroundings of the village suddenly turned back to look at Shadow Guardian.
I saw Ah Hu pointing his index finger forward and trembling: "There seems to be a will-o'-the-wisp."
The other people in Class [-] immediately looked in the direction that Ahu pointed, and there was indeed a faint flash of white light in the distance.
Of course, Kato Dan will not let go of any clues now, and directly orders Kazami Shinobu and the others: "Chase"
After Ah Hu came back to his senses and found that everyone else had run away, he yelled and chased after me: "I told you to wait for me."
When Kazami Shinobi caught up with his teacher, he saw Kato Dan blocking a skinny old man in gray robes in front of him. The old man also held a pale white lantern in his hand.
This old man had basically lost all his hair and was so skinny that he looked like he was just wearing a layer of skin on a humanoid skeleton.
I don't know if it's because of his age, but the old man's skin exposed outside his clothes is all wrinkled.
The old man who was stopped by Kato Duan spoke now and said in a hoarse voice: "Hehe, it's really rare. It's been a long time since we've seen outsiders come to our village."
Kato Dan asked the old man directly: "Do you live in this village? You don't see anyone else. Do you know that anyone has disappeared here recently?"
The skinny old man replied weakly and slowly: "I have lived here all my life. As for the other people, Hehe, the young people have all run out. We are the only immortals left here, and we don't care what happens outside."
"There are other people in this village"
"Hehe, they are all old people like me. We are all concentrated on that side of the village, so we can all take care of each other." The skinny old man raised his trembling right hand and pointed to a corner of the village.
"Can you take us to see it?"
"Hehe, of course no problem."
After getting the consent of the skinny old man, Kato Dan turned around and said to Hayato and Mamoru who came from behind: "We divided into two groups. One person followed the old man with me to see other people, and the others continued elsewhere in the village. Gather intelligence"
Ahu thought it would be safer to follow the teacher, so he volunteered: "Teacher Duan, I will go with you."
Seeing Mamoru being so enthusiastic, both Kazami Shinobu and Hayato said they would go check out other places in the village.
"Then we will gather at Dashi at the entrance of the village in an hour."
The two groups of Class [-] quickly separated and acted alone.
Watching Mr. Dan and Mamoru leave, Kazami Shinobu gestured to Hayato to follow him, and immediately walked towards the largest mansion in the village.
If there are any key books and materials in this village, they must be in the homes of important people in the village.
Ordinary residents should not have access to this important information, so Kazami Shinobu planned to search those big houses first.
On the left side of the road, there is a courtyard surrounded by a stone wall. Through the wall, you can vaguely see a two-story building.
Even though the outer wall of the building was quite dilapidated, Kazami Shinobu could still imagine the majestic appearance of the building when it was intact.
After Kazami Shinobu and Hayato walked through the overgrown gate and came to the courtyard, they separately entered the houses in the courtyard to check.
The house was filled with a strange smell, probably the smell of mold caused by the rotting wooden boards in the house.
Apart from this, Kazumi Shinobi only found furniture covered with thick dust in the room, and saw no other clues.
After exiting, Kazumi Shinobu saw Hayato who also came out and said that he didn't find anything.
Now only the main house in the middle was left unsearched. Kazami Shinobu and Hayato walked towards the two-story building together this time.
The main door of the main house was completely rotted, and Kazumi Shinobu and the two entered easily. After passing through the entrance, they found the living room and tea room where guests were received, with only broken bowls and cups left on the floor.
After searching this floor and finding nothing new, Kazumi Shinobu and Hayato walked up the half-rotten stairs on thin ice and finally saw a small, cramped study room in the corner of the second floor.
The bookshelves placed on the wall are lined with yellowing books, and a few broken pieces of manuscript paper that have been mostly eaten away by insects are scattered on the desk facing the window.
Kazami Shinobu immediately arranged: "Hayato, you go check the bookshelf to see if there are any clues. I will check these papers."
Hayato nodded to show his understanding.
Carefully picking up the yellowed manuscript paper on the desk, Kazumi Shinobi found that most of the writing on the paper was blurred, and only a small part could still be barely distinguished.
"March ○3"
"Today the village will hold a big festival to pray to God ○○ to continue to bless us."
"Day 4"
"Since the last ○○festival ○○, everyone seems to be ○○○○, I hope nothing will happen."
"○○○7○"
"Everyone is crazy. ○○ even killed ○○ today and said that he would dedicate it to Lord ○○ God. Many ○○ escaped, but I can't leave. I want to save my village,"
"○○○○"
"It's over, it's over, Changshi Village is over. Everyone has been brainwashed by ○○○○. No one can escape. ○○God is simply ○○○○"
After writing this, there is no other information left in these diaries.
However, after reading this information, Kazumi Shinobu felt that he had almost found a clue. Judging from the actions described above, it was very likely that the Xian Shen Cult was causing trouble.
Thinking of this, Kazumi Shinobu looked up at Hayato, wanting to see what else he found there.
Hayato waved his hand: "They are all village diaries and travel notes, and they have all become rotten."
After learning about Hayato's harvest, Kazumi Shinobu also lost interest in going over to the bookshelf to look at it.
"Boom"
When he was about to tell Hayato about his results, there were sudden bursts of thunderous sounds outside.
At this time, it suddenly started drizzling outside the house.
The fog here is also lighter than in the forest, and you can barely see farther into the village.
What is strange is that it is already dark, but there is no light in the whole village, and it is pitch black as far as the eye can see.
