Chapter 99 Asma

The next day, Yanzong and Yingzi walked on the road. The so-called road was not very wide, so it was a bit crowded for six people walking side by side.Yingzi walked in front, with small and rapid steps, and Yan Zongtiao walked behind, with long and slow steps.The woman seemed to be walking fast, but in fact she was not much faster than Yan Zong.But Yan Zong couldn't catch up, so the woman was so angry that she could only stop and wait for Yan Zong.

She turned her back to Yan Zong and stood there without looking back.Yan Zong passed by her without stopping.The woman watched Yan Zong walk away and wanted to call Yan Zong to stop, but she couldn't.

They had a good sleep last night, and the woman didn't know how she fell asleep.She felt that she shouldn't be able to sleep, that the events of last night would surround her and make her toss and turn.But the truth is that she slept more soundly than usual.

They slept until dawn and even cooked in the village.He also took some food for the journey.Sakurako has never spoken to Yanzong until now, but now she wants to talk.Ke Yanzong seemed to want to ignore her.

Yanzong stopped and looked back at Yingzi.Sakurako looked at him, the two of them were a little far apart.No one walked towards the other person. The woman lowered her head and avoided Yan Zong's gaze.Yan Zong's eyes were clear and shining, without any confusion.But she did nothing, but her heart was in a mess.

Yan Zong walked over and stood in front of the woman.The woman saw Yan Zong's feet and raised her head.She didn't dare to look into Yan Zong's eyes and turned her head away.Yanzong picked up Yingzi and walked to the woods by the roadside.The woman buried her head in Yan Zong's arms, thinking that Yan Zong was going to do something to her again.Although she was a little reluctant, she couldn't resist the temptation.

Yan Zong sat down by a tree. The woman in his arms could not wait for Yan Zong to make any move. She was a little surprised.Yingzi raised her head and looked at Yan Zong. Yan Zong didn't look at her. He was looking into the distance and thinking.

Since last night, he has thought that women are not in the same world as him.Therefore, he did not kill the seven young men, and he gave the villagers money if they asked for it.Just to take care of women's feelings.

"Just tell me if you have anything to do." Yan Zong said calmly, looking into the distance.

"Why did you do that?" the woman asked Yan Zong while sitting in Yan Zong's arms.

"They were the ones who started the attack." Yan Zong knew what the woman was asking, but he didn't answer directly.

"You can stop them, but why do you do that." The woman looked at Yan Zong to see if Yan Zong had lied to him.But Yan Zong didn't answer her question, he just looked into the distance in silence.

"Even if they attack first, you shouldn't attack those who are already running away." Sakurako accepted Yan Zong's reason and asked further.

"No one is innocent, they were involved." Yan Zong said lightly.

"Why?" the woman asked.Yan Zong didn't answer.

The woman looked at Yan Zong, but Yan Zong still didn't look at her.She began to realize that she did not understand Yan Zong.These days, she feels that Yan Zong is a strong, strong man who can protect her and is willing to protect her.But in fact, all she knew about Yan Zong was his name.But she didn't care before, she thought Yan Zong just treated her well.

"If this time it's not me and you, but your husband who is with you. Can you imagine your consequences?" Yan Zong was silent for a while and looked at the woman, meeting her eyes.The woman tilted her head, of course she could imagine.

"You and I are not in the same world, and we see things differently." Yan Zong continued when the woman did not speak, "They are not good people, they just have few opportunities to do evil. Although some of them may be really innocent, they I don’t have time to distinguish between them, and I don’t need to.”

"But..." The woman wanted to say it but didn't know how to say it.The person she wanted to convince was not Yan Zong, but herself.

"In our world, my life and your life are the same, as cheap as weeds. Except for the people who love you and yourself, no one will care about your life and mine. I grew up in that world and can only survive in that world. The world can only use the survival rules of that world. As long as I live, I may become a threat to anyone."

"This is me. If you want to accept it, accept it. If you don't want to..." Before Yan Zong could finish his words, the woman kissed Yan Zong on the lips.Gave Yan Zong her answer.

Yingzi's lips slowly left Yan Zong's lips, and she looked at Yan Zong, who looked at her.Yingzi slowly said: "That is the punishment they deserve!"

"Well, if you follow me, you will join that world and you may die at any time. Are you afraid?"

"I'm not afraid of death, and you will protect me as long as you are here, right?"

"I won't protect you." Yan Zong answered Yingzi directly and seriously.Yingzi looked at Yan Zong in surprise, she didn't know what to say or how to express.She believed that Yan Zong would protect her, but Yan Zong's words made her a little hurt.

"In our world, everyone relies on themselves to protect themselves. Weak people can only be regarded as lambs."

"Then will you abandon me?"

"will not!"

The woman looked at Yan Zong. She didn't know whether Yan Zong's promise was sincere or just to coax her.But she wanted to believe that Yan Zong was sincere.

"Hmm..." An old man knocked on the table.He was sitting behind a long table. Opposite him stood a man with a beard and a triangular scarf with the word "fire" written on it hanging around his waist.Or it could be a square scarf folded in half to form a triangle.

"Asma." It was an old man who spoke. He was wearing a red hat with the word "fire" written on it.Wearing a red gown as a base layer and a white windbreaker outside.Or rather a cloak.

He is the Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen of Konoha Hidden Village, the highest-ranking person in Konoha Village.He is in charge of the entire Konoha, and Konoha is a military group serving the Land of Fire.Although he is effective, he can be arbitrary in many matters.The reason for their effectiveness is that they need the financial support of the Fire Nation.in a state of coexistence.

"Yes, Father!" Asma bowed slightly.But Naruto had a cold face.

"This is not home." The Hokage said coldly.

"Yes, Hokage-sama." Asuma was stunned for a moment and bowed again, but not as much as before.He was a little dissatisfied with his father's indifference.And the Hokage didn't care.

"The request I just received, the Fire Temple has been unusual recently. There are often ninjas exploring the Fire Temple. If you want us to send people to support you, I plan to send you." The Hokage said calmly.

"What is the specific situation that Jilu should be able to handle?" Asuma was curious. He and Jilu, the host of the Fire Temple, were old friends.He knew how powerful he was, and that Chiriku was not the only one fighting in the Fire Temple.It’s just that Earth and Land are the strongest.

"The request said that from time to time, some ninjas who don't know where they come from will appear in the temple. Sometimes there are even several in one night. They will run away immediately after they are discovered. Some powerful monks cannot catch them, and the ground Lu didn’t dare to pursue him rashly.”

"I see." Asuma touched his chin and took out a pack of cigarettes.The Hokage coughed twice and stopped him from smoking.

"You will be on your own for this mission. There are not enough manpower in the village. The next batch of genin that you need to lead will not be divided into classes for half a year."

"It's okay. It just so happens that I can catch up with Dilu alone and stay with him for a while as a vacation." Asma smiled, "By the way, which three guys should I take with me?"

"Heh, I haven't decided yet which three annoying brats should be assigned to your class."

The father and son looked at each other, and Asuma shrugged.Suddenly Asuma saw a green toad appearing on the window, the size of a toad's hand.After pausing at the edge of the window, he jumped onto the Hokage's desk.

"Quack!" cried the toad.

"This is..." Asma recognized what was going on. He had seen it at home.similar situation.

"Well, it's Jiraiya's information toad." The Hokage confirmed Asuma's idea.

He stretched out his left index finger and pointed at the toad's head. His right hand habitually stretched out his index and middle fingers, and pressed his thumb on the curved nails of his ring finger and little finger.After shouting "open", there was a bang and smoke filled the desk, and the toad turned into a scroll about ten centimeters and a handful thick.

The Hokage opened the scroll and read it. Although Jiraiya was wandering outside, he would occasionally send back some information that he considered important.The Hokage watched for a few minutes, falling into silence.There was silence in his office.

"Did something important happen?" Asuma asked.

"It's about the disintegration of the White Shark Alliance at sea." The Hokage paused and continued, "The person who disintegrated the White Shark Alliance was a person who should have died. Jiraiya, Yagyu Konsou and the old White Shark's daughter were together. Let’s work together to deal with him.”

"Jiraiya, do you need to join forces with someone?" Asuma was a little surprised.

"Well, that's what the intelligence said. Fortunately, he has been killed." The Hokage said, "By the way, I seem to have seen the name of this Yagyu Gonzong somewhere."

The Hokage opened his left drawer and found a folder.Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded as he found Yagyu Konmune's name in the document he took out of the document bag.

"The future head of the Yagyu family participated in the escort of the Daimyo's gift. He seems to be a very powerful guy." said the Hokage.

"You sent Kakashi to take over, right?" Asuma said, "I haven't seen him for a while."

"Well, it should be a while before he comes back."

Six people and one dog were flying through the woods, and they discovered the village where Yan Zong and the others had rested for the night.The ninjas split up and inspected the village.The dog leads a human ninja to find a woman, the same woman that Yanzong scared away that night.She lived in a haystack of a villager's house.

"It's almost certain that he is a samurai." The ninjas began to gather information.

"Have you ever seen a man leading a woman?" A ninja asked, grabbing the woman's collar.The woman shivered and nodded.

"When did they leave?" Ninja asked simply.What Yan Zong did at night was clear to them, and there was nothing to ask.

"This morning."

"Were they leaving in a hurry?"

"They left after they finished cooking."

The ninja thought for a moment and threw the woman to the ground.He rushed out of the village and the group of people followed the dog in the direction Yan Zong and the others were going.It was just after noon, and they were about to catch up with Yan Zong and the others.
