Naruto: Konoha Insect Master

Chapter 20 The History of Disappearance

♂nbsp; Cang Lan began to search and investigate everywhere, hoping to find out the truth, but unfortunately, after three days of searching, he still found nothing. Cang Lan was a little tired and found a place to rest. After a while, the originally quiet street began to become noisy, and people gathered together. Cang Lan was a little curious and asked the uncle setting up a stall next to him: "Uncle, what's going on? What are they going to do?" After saying that, he handed it over. Give him one thousand taels.

The uncle accepted the money and said with a smile: "The nine heirs have returned to the country. It is said that four heirs have passed all the tests this time. They will participate in the final trial next week, worship the holy relics, and choose the final king."

Unexpectedly, Cang Lan arrived at just the right time to catch up with the election of the new king. This was a golden opportunity for Cang Lan. He could take the opportunity to sneak in and see what the so-called holy objects were.

"Thank you, uncle." After thanking Cang Lan, he followed the crowd to see the heir who returned home.

The nine heirs were all sitting in sedan chairs, and they could not be seen. There was a large group of warriors around them to protect their safety. At the front was an old man dressed as an official.

Not long after walking, the old man stopped and said loudly: "Please let the four selected heirs go to the post house to rest and wait for arrangements. The other five can go home."

Cang Lan followed the team of four heirs to the post house. Only the four of them lived in the huge post house. The guards surrounded the entire post house on three floors and not a single fly could fly in. After figuring out the location of the post house, Cang Lan left. He planned to pretend to be the heir and sneak into the palace. The final test will be next week, so Cang Lan is in no hurry to start.

After returning to the hotel where he lived, Cang Lan met the waitress who served him food again. Cang Lan rolled her eyes and said to the waitress with a smile: "Beautiful lady, I just went out for a walk and found that there are many old buildings around. This place has many years of history."

The waitress smiled and said: "Fue Country only has a history of more than a hundred years, which is not too much."

Cang Lan said casually: "It's been more than a hundred years, and there are quite thick history books written on it."

The waitress said: "There are not many books recording the history of Fue Country. A lot of history has been lost, so the history books of Fue Country are very thin and can be read in one or two hours."

Cang Lan looked regretful, "What a pity. I originally wanted to know more about this mysterious and beautiful country."

The waitress was very happy to hear Cang Lan praising her country. She thought about it and said, "I heard that there is a centenarian in Fue Country. Since he is more than a hundred years old, he must know a lot about the history of Fue Country." . You can go find him, but I just heard about it, so I don’t know if it’s true.”

Cang Lan waved her hand, "No need to bother, I'm just saying casually. I still want to thank you, beautiful lady."

The waitress blushed and whispered, "You're welcome."

Back in the room, Cang Lan breathed a sigh of relief. After searching for so long, he finally found a clue. Regardless of whether it was true or not, Cang Lan decided to look for it.

As the saying goes, money can make the world go round. Cang Lan finally asked a vendor for clues about the centenarian. Cang Lan came to the bookstore last time. The boss was just like last time, sitting there listlessly. He glanced at Cang Lan and asked doubtfully: "Why is it you again?"

Cang Lan smiled and said, "That's right. I'm a history buff. I heard that your grandfather is one hundred and three years old this year. Is it okay if I want to meet him?"

The bookstore owner's face immediately turned cold and he asked warily: "What do you want to do?"

"Didn't I just say that?"

The bookstore owner said sternly: "My grandfather has passed away, you don't have to look for him."

Cang Lan sighed heavily, "That's such a shame." After saying that, he left the bookstore.

Seeing that Cang Lan was really gone, the bookstore owner breathed a sigh of relief, but just in case, he closed the store door, looked nervous, and sneaked out of the city.

The bookstore owner was very careful along the way. He turned back every five steps and made sure no one was around before sneaking into a small alley.

The boss came to a small thatched house and eagerly opened the door: "Master, are you there?"

An old man with gray hair, wrinkles and ravines on his face was lying on a chair and asked calmly: "What's wrong?"

"That's right, there is one today"

Before the bookstore owner finished speaking, he was interrupted by a voice, "Let me do the talking." Cang Lan pushed the door open and said with a smile: "Let me introduce myself, my name is Cang Lan, I am a traveler. "

Seeing Cang Lan, the bookstore owner was a little panicked, but the old man remained calm and said calmly: "What can I do for this guest?"

For some reason, Cang Lan's intuition told him that these two people could be trusted, so he decided to be honest and told them exactly what he wanted to do.

After listening to Cang Lan's words, the bookstore owner breathed a sigh of relief. The old man who was over 100 years old was silent for a moment, his eyes became firm, as if he had made a difficult decision, "Since you want to hear it, I will tell you everything." Bar."

The old man's eyes were shining with splendor, and he began to tell Cang Lan about the lost history of the Fue Kingdom. "More than a hundred years ago, a man led his tribe to this fertile land. They thrived here, and the tribe also Expanding day by day, the population is getting more and more, and they plan to build a country of their own. Just when they are ready and everything is going well, an uninvited guest comes to this land. People call it the evil bug. A slight touch from the worms will cause the whole body to fester and die. Although there are not many worms in number, they are difficult to kill. They are not afraid of water and fire. They are small in size and very fast. They will attack when they see living things. Even if killed, the organs in the body are still very toxic. Just when everyone was about to leave this paradise in tears, the man discovered an underground cave. Once the worm enters the cave, it will die inexplicably, and the body will also die. Will dissipate. People found hope, but soon a new problem arose, how to get the worms in. The man found another fungus, which the worms like to eat very much. After that, they will faint and the toxins in the body will disappear temporarily. People feed this fungus to the worms. After the worms faint, they collect them and throw them all into the underground cave. Finally, the cave will be destroyed forever. Closed. People regained the land and established a country. The man became the first king and the country was named Voe. Two years later, the first king died and his son became the second king. , suddenly one day, a man named Baichuan came to this country. With his help, the country became stronger and stronger day by day. In this way, the envoys of the holy objects defeated the invaders and protected the peace of the Fue Kingdom. People began to worship the holy objects. thing, and handed over the election of the new king to it.”

After listening to the old man's story, Cang Lan began to sort out his thoughts. He already roughly understood the ins and outs of the whole thing. The only way to figure out the rest was to enter the palace and see the so-called blessings of the gods.

Cang Lan thanked the old man, "Thank you, old man. It's getting late. I should go back."

"Wait a minute." The old man stopped Cang Lan, turned to the bookstore owner and ordered: "Go get the box."

The bookstore owner did as he was told, walked into the back room, took out a wooden box, and respectfully presented it to the old man. The old man did not take the box, but said: "Give him the box."

Cang Lan quickly stretched out her hands, took the box, looked at the box, and asked, "Can I open it and take a look?"

"Of course, it's yours now, I hope you can use it."
