[Naruto·Itachi BG] Reverse Black and White II

Chapter 44 Chapter 10·The Secret of the Haunted House (4)

There was silence in the room, and no one spoke first. The swaying bonfire cast dark shadows of light and dark on everyone's faces, making it appear that there were ulterior motives hidden beneath every face with a different expression.

After a long silence, Xie suddenly smiled, looked at Itachi meaningfully, curled his lips and sneered: "...I see..."

Across the fire, Itachi looked at him from a distance, his eyes cold, implying a silent and strong threat.

"Oh, since you don't want to tell the truth, let me tell you." Xie was unmoved. His expression remained unchanged, and his words were even more provocative. He faced Weasel's intimidating gaze and showed no signs of weakness. Looking back, "We are all smart people here. Even if I let you hide it for a while, it won't take long for everyone to come to their senses..."

The two of them were facing each other in the air, and the atmosphere was tense and tense for a moment. The two people had a strong aura and refused to give in to each other. It was difficult for others to get a word in, and they could only watch the two of them competing. The firewood in the furnace was burned to pieces and exploded into several pieces with a "pop" sound. Fragments of sparks flew out and fell into the ashes. They were extinguished instantly and disappeared without a trace.

After a brief confrontation, Itachi was the first to look away. He slowly lowered his eyelids, covering his gloomy eyes. However, Scorpion did not feel proud of Itachi's concession. Instead, he became more vigilant and stared at him with slightly narrowed eyes.

What are your plans? …

Seeing that the two finally ended their confrontation, Deidara couldn't help but ask: "Xie Danna, you said you understood, what is going on? Hmm."

Xie retracted his glaring gaze at Itachi, turned to Deidara, raised his chin and gestured to Feng Lan, who was sitting opposite, and calmly said: "If my guess is correct, then the wooden sculpture Feng Lan is holding in his hand, It is probably the mission target that the Nanzhu team is looking for, the missing statue of the "Shadow Miko" in the village of Ninohara. Right? "

"Eh?"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was stunned. Xie ignored the surprised or frightened teammates in front of him and kept paying attention to Itachi from the corner of his eye. However, his expression remained as usual, leaving Xie Pin unable to make any clues. However, Itachi's silence at this time made Xie believe that they Their inferences were consistent. If Scorpion's vision could be wider, he could see that when he said this, Uchiha Itachi suddenly clasped the statue's hand.

Xie turned a deaf ear to everyone's reactions and continued to talk: "...This explains why we both have completely opposite experiences. The statue is going back to this house, so we who hold it are guided here. . However, the barrier set up by the person before was "no entry". The two forces clashed and the statue finally gained the upper hand. So despite some delays, we got here and entered the house without any problems. "

Xie carefully observed Itachi's expression and saw that he still seemed to be in a daze, so he continued: "Although there is no conclusive evidence, according to my guess..."

"One of us was targeted by it."

He stared at Feng Lan with burning eyes, his meaning was clear, and he pressed forward step by step: "The statue guided this person here, and she needs to complete one thing."

Who is being targeted? The answer is self-evident.

As soon as Xie finished speaking, Feng Lan saw everyone's eyes sweeping toward her. Those eyes that were either probing, suspicious, or suspicious, wrapped in a heavy mountain-like sense of oppression, directed toward her. It was coming towards her head on, so heavy that she could hardly breathe. And just when she almost abandoned her armor and fled, the hand on the ground was suddenly held hard by someone. The slight pain and scorching warmth penetrated through the skin on the back of the hand, seeped into the meridians, bones and blood, and followed the pumping of the heart to reach the chest, warming the heart.

It's Itachi.

He used this obscure and restrained way to silently support her, giving her endless confidence and trust, allowing her to move forward bravely without fear of any sinister calculations and speculations in the world. Just like when she was young and faced with blood and killing for the first time, he fell from the sky, the snow blade cut through the light and cut through the darkness, and said clearly and coldly: "She has me."

He remains the same, never changes.

Feng Lan's heart immediately calmed down.

After silence, Deidara was the first to speak: "So it was Feng Lan who took the wood carving and we were lured here?"

Itachi replied calmly: "It was because Feng Lan was targeted that the wood carving got into her hands." He said this, but his hand holding hers suddenly tightened a little tighter, making her feel faint. It hurts.

Facing the eyes of the whole room that became a little darker, Feng Lan opened and closed her mouth, but she couldn't make any sound, as if someone had strangled her throat. Her little face was pale and pale; The slinky almond-shaped eyes glanced over everyone's face in a bewildered manner.

After spinning around in a circle, Feng Lan finally couldn't hold it in anymore and one word popped out of her mouth: "Fuck!"

Crowd: "???"

The fire was so bright that her little face, which had faded from blood, was filled with a ferocious look. Feng Lan gritted her teeth, as if she had just recovered, and said angrily: "I was thinking about it, the 250 taels of Ming coins are different from the ones we use daily. 250 taels, isn’t it worth it? So this account doesn’t add up at all, how do you want me to reimburse you for everything?”

Crowd: "..."

...That's true...but! Is there something wrong with your focus? ! ! !

Deidara was impatient and angrily pointed at Feng Lan's nose and complained: "Hey! You are not worried, what do you want to do when the statue is targeting you? Hmm. Compared to this, let alone two hundred and fifty taels. , two thousand five hundred taels is nothing! Hmm."

"I understand the truth," Feng Lan retorted not to be outdone, "but that old man cheated me of 250 taels for nothing, should I forget it?"

"Tch! I can't make sense with a short-sighted money fan like you. Xie Danna," Deidara was so angry that he stopped paying attention to Feng Lan and turned to Xie, "What you just said was "one thing" instead of "a certain thing" "thing", so you already understand its purpose? "

Seeing that she could no longer get in the conversation, Feng Lan could only mutter to herself, cursing: "That damn old man not only plotted against me, but also took money from me! Not only did he take money from me, but he also used hell coins to call me a fool! Wait a minute. ! I will definitely dig up his grave when I go back and scatter his ashes!..." The tough look on his face as he rolls up his sleeves in anger, making one can't help but sympathize with the poor aunt who offended this aunt with her lack of foresight. ghost.

Seeing that Feng Lan had returned to normal, Itachi felt a little relieved and quietly let go of Feng Lan's hand. The warmth on the back of her hand suddenly peeled away, and Feng Lan suddenly panicked. She subconsciously picked up her fingers to keep him, but in the end it was a step too late. The source of warmth she lingered on still passed between her fingers and disappeared without a trace.

Feng Lan was very upset. When the skull just appeared, she missed an opportunity to hide in Itachi's arms and now she failed to hold hands. Feng Lan fell into deep reflection: Alas, it turns out that women have no luck in love. From now on, she will return to the character of a weak and pitiful girl!

"It's just speculation, there is no conclusive evidence." On the other side, Xie looked at Itachi who was silent and emphasized, "The origin of the statue comes from the sacrifice eighty years ago, the true form of the "Shadow Miko" Because of the missing little finger, the sacrifice failed and the ghost lingered. Therefore, this statue, or some kind of will attached to the statue, must be related to the "Shadow Miko" and its related sacrifices. It was probably to make up for the mistakes of the year, hold a successful sacrifice again, and suppress the resentful spirits. If this is true, then as the protagonist of the ritual, the "Shadow Miko" is indispensable..."

Everyone heard what he meant, and their eyes focused on Feng Lan again.

"But..." A Fei, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke, puzzled, "Why is it Feng Lan Jiang?"

"Is there any need to say it?" Feng Lan, who had just made up her mind to be a weak girl, turned around and left her ambition behind. She glared at him immediately, and then raised her hand to flip her hair charmingly. , "I am the only beautiful and pure young girl here! Can't we capture you old men and make them witches?" The long, flowing hair seemed to be dancing in an elegant arc in the air, falling down and then rising slightly. Bounce, enjoy silky smoothness, extraordinary suppleness, and extraordinary heartbeat. She is so confident, as if she is a popular candidate for a Oscar-winning actress on the red carpet under the spotlight. Every strand of her hair is shouting: I am electricity, I am light, and I am the eternal superstar.

Crowd: "..."

Hello! You are being targeted as a living sacrifice, are you afraid of it? Do you think you were picked to debut in the C position of "Chuangx Camp 505" with Yourong? ! !

Feng Lan's performance of "Sister is the queen, shine with confidence" did not receive applause, only numerous eye rolls; there was no warm-up to calm the atmosphere, but instead made everyone present feel a chill.

"But why me?" Feng Lan didn't care about the silence, nor did she care that no one picked up on her jokes. She just thought to herself, "We really just passed by by chance...could it be?!" Her slightly raised voice sounded like she was feeling something.

Everyone waited with bated breath for her reasoning.

"...Can't you find a beautiful girl like me with good looks like me in this small shabby village?" Feng Lan clapped her hands and said confidently.

Crowd: "..."

Xie stared at her half-moon eyes: "Can you be more narcissistic?"

Feng Lan answered without any psychological barriers: "Okay."

scorpion:"……"

So suddenly no one wanted to talk to Feng Lan.

Itachi was used to Feng Lan's nonsense, so he didn't join in the fun. He just looked down at the miko statue and said nothing. He was also thinking about this question: Why Feng Lan?

At this time, the fire was getting dim and no one was adding firewood. In the deep shadows, the crudely carved witch statue became visibly clear to the naked eye, as if there was an invisible hand turning the knife like flying in front of everyone, carving out the details. Every detail of the wooden statue. In the blink of an eye, I saw the shrine maiden's expressions were affectionate, her clothes were as neat as the wind, and her voice, face, and smile seemed familiar to her.

Itachi's heart was shocked, and he blinked in shock, glancing at Feng Lan beside him.

But Feng Lan didn't notice it at all and still laughed heartlessly.

She thought that although she was making trouble, she never made fun of serious matters. Although I don’t know whether the guess that Xie just put forward is right or wrong, there is no guarantee that these cold-blooded companions who have no friendship have some wrong ideas about her, so she said: "Let me declare in advance, if I become a "Shadow Miko", I will definitely You all stay and guard the cave with me. This is my territory. With my own strength, retired miko and home buff bonus, I can consume half of your lives even if you don't die; or join me in beating the current miko. You decide what to do yourself! "

I have to say that Feng Lan's crisis public relations is still very professional. She analyzes the pros and cons like this, and anyone with some brains will know how to do it.

Xie immediately sneered and said, "It seems that my original plan will be implemented at the end."

Feng Lan: "..." So you really planned to use me to make a deal with the devil?

Only Itachi silently lowered his eyes. He clasped the miko statue in his hand and silently hid it in his sleeve.
