Naruto: Konoha Insect Master

♂nbsp; Yingsuke introduced Cang Lan to the villagers. The villagers here were also very simple and welcomed Cang Lan.

"Canglan-kun, let me get you a glass of water. You need to take a rest first."

After Yingsuke left, Canglan found a stone and sat down. Several children gathered around and asked cautiously: "Brother, are you a ninja?" There are boys and girls among these children, the youngest is about three or four years old. Years old, the oldest is only six or seven years old.

Cang Lan smiled and nodded, "Don't be afraid. Although my brother is a ninja, he is not much older than you. He is only thirteen years old this year." Although Cang Lan is only thirteen years old, he is almost 1.7 meters tall and looks like ten years old. At the age of six or seven, and with his ninja career in the past few years, Canglan has become more and more mature. If he didn't say anything, no one would know that he was still a child.

"It's amazing that my brother is already a ninja at such a young age."

"Brother, can you show me ninjutsu?"

"I want to see too"

"Okay, I'll show you." Cang Lan thought these children were very interesting and decided to play with them for a while.

With a bang, seven identical Cang Lans appeared.

“Great, great”

"Again"

Cang Lan originally planned to give them some valuable things and leave, but unexpectedly, he played with these children until dark. After dark, the naughty children reluctantly went back. Cang Lan wiped his sweat and breathed a long sigh of relief. He would rather fight with a dozen grass ninjas than play with the naughty children anymore. It was so tiring.

It was already getting late. It was located on the mountainside and the terrain was complicated. Cang Lan could only choose to leave tomorrow. Hearing that Cang Lan was staying overnight, Yingsuke and the villagers were very enthusiastic and quickly started the stove and prepared dinner.

Everyone eats dinner here together. Except for pregnant women, everyone else has to line up to receive meals. Yingzhu is the person in charge here and is also responsible for delivering meals to the villagers. Children get less food, and older adults get more, but neither adults nor children get much food, and they don't get enough to eat at all.

Yingsuke brought food to Canglan, a big bowl full of wild vegetables, sweet potatoes, and a piece of fish. The portion was at least several times that of other villagers.

"Thank you." Cang Lan declined without any pretense. He took the food and ate it. Although the taste wasn't great, he could still barely eat it. In the past, when the four of them were on missions, they ate tasteless compressed biscuits for more than ten days in a row. Cang Lan had long been used to it, as long as he could eat it.

Not far away, several children were gathering together to have dinner. There was very little in the bowl. After eating, they licked the bowl twice. Cang Lan shook his head with a wry smile, walked up to them, and handed the bowl to them, "Eat, kids."

Several children swallowed, stared at the fish in the bowl, shook their heads and said, "No, this is the guest's food, we can't eat it."

Seeing them like this, Cang Lan laughed out loud, "Eat, the guests are already full, it's the host's turn to eat." In the end, the children couldn't resist the temptation of food and started to eat.

The children were full, but Cang Lan was not doing well. He hadn’t eaten anything since the morning, and now he was so hungry that his chest pressed against his back. The most unfortunate thing was that Cang Lan, in order to pack more insects, Throw away all the dry food in the bag.

After dinner, Canglan found Eisuke, pulled him into the nearby woods, took out a scroll from a small bag, and said: "Eisuke, you and the villagers here are very good, you can maintain your true nature in such troubled times, It's not easy to stay human, even for me. There are a lot of priceless jewelry in this storage scroll. After I open it, you can take them all back. In exchange for money, it will be enough for you to rebuild your home and live a better life. A life of abundance.”

"Please don't." Eisuke immediately refused. "Kuralan-kun, you may not know that our life now is much more stable than before the war. Before the war started, our village was very wealthy, and bandits and bandits came to visit every day. Not only did they We stole money, food, women, and captured the men in the village. After the war started, those who could escape fled, and those who couldn't, I took them to hide here. Although life is hard, at least we can survive. , we always firmly believe that as long as we are alive, there is hope, and good people will be rewarded. Going down the mountain to rob this time is also a helpless act. To be honest, we can only eat food for three days at most. If Cang Lan wants to help us, Just give us some money, don’t give us these expensive things.”

After listening to Yingsuke's words, Cang Lan wanted to slap himself. The common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of possessing the treasure. He has forgotten such a simple truth, especially in such troubled times, the slightest profit will lead people to risk their lives. . Cang Lan himself is a good example. He encountered countless robberies along the way, but they were all minor roles, so he never took them to heart.

Since Cang Lan has decided to help them, he will never give up halfway. He took back the scroll and said to Yingsuke: "Yingsuke, I want to stay for a while, and I can help you find food, okay?"

"Of course, Canglan-kun can stay here as long as you want." Eisuke agreed.

"It's getting late, let's go back and rest first." Cang Lan said.

"No problem, Canglan-kun, go and have a rest. A place to rest has been arranged for you. The conditions here are not good, so you can make do with it first."

"I proposed to stay here, so why should I blame you for the poor conditions? Moreover, we ninjas are not good at other things and are much better at enduring hardship than you." Cang Lan joked.

"Good night Canglan-kun, I wish you a good dream."

Lying on the bed made of hay, Cang Lan tossed and turned. Let alone dreaming, he couldn't even sleep now. He was worried about how to help the village. He couldn't always live here to protect the village. Apart from giving them money, Cang Lan really couldn't think of any other good way. After much deliberation and no idea, Cang Lan decided not to think about it at all. He would settle down and wait for a few days before talking about it. Anyway, he had plenty of time and was not in a hurry.

Early the next morning, Eisuke started packing his things, apparently going out. Canglan asked: "Eisuke, do you want to go out to find food?"

Yingsuke nodded, "Yes, we men go out hunting every day, and women go to the mountains to dig wild vegetables." At this point, Yingsuke looked a little gloomy, "We don't know anything about hunting, and we haven't caught prey for many days."

"Then I'll go with you. Living here, it's fair to contribute."

"It's great that Mr. Canglan can go." Canglan's skills and skills have been witnessed by Yingshu. With his help, he will definitely return home with a full load.

The hunting team, composed of seven middle-aged men plus Cang Lan, set off just like that.
