[Naruto] Ninja Live Report

The sound of wheels turning and horseshoes kicking came from a distance, and after a while, a small convoy appeared on the horizon.From the beginning to the end, there were a total of eight carriages lined up in sequence; seven of them were common and simple carriages in the countryside, and the planks creaked constantly while driving, while the remaining one—many of them sat in wooden carriages, The poorly dressed child was sneaking his head out of curiosity, looking at the surrounded metal car.

No horses pulling, the whole body glowing with an unknown metallic luster, and the speed enough to easily throw off all the frames - these three points alone are enough to make children and even adults who may never leave their birthplace for ten miles all their lives curious up.

Unlike the "metal cart" that only sat four people, nearly twenty people were crammed into the carriage, which was not much larger in size.There are only a few wooden boards in these primitive vehicles as seats, and there is no cushioning facility, which is enough to make people dizzy on uneven country roads; but most passengers are satisfied enough for this situation—if not The generosity of the "Masters of the Consortium" meant that they could only walk back on two legs—as for the fact that these carriages were originally out-of-stock products, no one paid attention to it.

A boy who looked like five or six years old was sitting on his mother's lap. At this moment, he stuck his head out of the window again, looking at the majestic metal "big monster".His skin is very dark, his figure can barely be called normal, and his clothes can only be described as "sackcloth"; but his eyes are very agile, turning around curiously all the time.And in the past few days, the "ultimate question of the universe" he was thinking about was: why does that piece of metal move?

The mother holding him had no time to pay attention to what her little son was thinking.At this moment, the thin middle-aged woman was looking ahead with a worried look on her face.

Her expression was so obvious that even a gruff ex-farmer nearby could see it.He turned his head in the swaying carriage and called her name: "Are you uncomfortable?"

The woman shook her head and said in a low voice, "I'm a little worried..."

"Hey, there's nothing to worry about." The man waved his hand immediately, "Now... what's that called... the United Army? That army has gone to the north, what else can happen to the village?"

Hearing this, the woman smiled wryly and lowered her head.She didn't worry about herself, it was the adults of the Sakura Consortium who saved her life, and it was right for her to repay her life with the construction of the transfer station; but, child... She looked at the urchin who was still looking out, with a look in her eyes. Full of gentleness—the village is located in an uneven territory, what if there is another war?The death contract clearly states that no matter what the situation is, as long as the superior does not order to evacuate, they cannot give up the transfer station, even if the consequence is to die there.

But, if you don't go back, what can you do...

She looked at the roof of the car, at the invisible sky, and sighed softly.

In a blink of an eye, the village is within sight.Except for the sense of desolation caused by the lack of human habitation, it doesn't look like much has changed here.

The villagers in the carriage packed up their things and prepared to get off, but the car in the middle of the team slowed down and stopped before entering the village entrance.Seeing this, the eight carriages also stopped one after another, and an old man whose clothes were relatively clean compared to others got out of the carriage and walked towards the car; afterward, the order from the "metal cart" came in this small The spread spread within the team: all the villagers entered the village to rest first, followed by the four members of the consortium.

Although the villagers were puzzled, they obeyed the order, unloaded their belongings from the two luggage carriages, and walked towards the original residence.The occupants in the car didn't seem to panic either, allowing the carriages and young adults to enter the village and parked alone at the intersection; if the person who left last had white eyes, you could see a well-dressed young woman holding Started a magazine.

Exactly as the four expected, 10 minutes later, a villager came to report that there were two ninjas from the coalition army in the village; only then did the "metal car" slowly move and drive towards the village.

Xingzi and Wei stood in the room, chatting with the old man among the villagers—in fact, they were more unilaterally asking about the situation of the coalition army.Although they still haven't completely let go of their vigilance, they are almost the same—these people in front of them don't have even half a chakra on them, and it's very easy to find this.

"...So, the coalition forces continue to attack north."

"Yes, but we don't know much about the specific situation." Even though he was facing two young ninja girls under the age of 20, the old man still dared not slack off and told everything he knew.

Progress has been made, but not detailed enough.Sachiko thought about it and asked, "Then does anyone know the specifics?"

Hearing this, the old man hesitated for a moment—maybe the adults of the consortium knew about it; but would speaking out cause them trouble?

Xingzi didn't see this from the old man's face full of grooves, and only regarded his silence as a synonym for not knowing, so she was quite disappointed; Wei seemed to have noticed something, but she couldn't help it when she was not [-]% sure. There is no opening.For a while, the surroundings fell into silence.

Fortunately, the situation that made the old man restless didn't last long; soon, the sound of the engine came from outside.He hurriedly smiled and asked the two ninjas to wait a moment, and then trotted out to ask the consortium members to deal with the situation.

Xingzi and Wei waited in the living room for a while, and then saw the old man respectfully open the door, and the two men entered the room one after another.They all looked to be in their thirties, and their clothes were only above average, but it was extremely easy to distinguish them from the villagers—whether it was their steady and firm steps, their neither humble nor haughty smiles, or their confident and polite eyes, they were all used to them. What the groveling villagers don't have.Rao Xingzi has already traveled across a small half of the continent, and she can also feel that the temperament of these two people is very rare among ordinary people.

The staff of the Sakura Consortium have their own business association logos on their clothes, and the two female ninjas are also wearing the uniforms of the United Army, so the two sides have a general understanding of each other's identities before they have a conversation.The four greeted each other and exchanged a few words of pleasantries, and then Sachiko went straight to the topic: "Do you know anything about the situation of the coalition army?"

"If you mean the location of the battlefield, we only know that the nearest battlefield is to the north and is gradually moving towards the Huangliu River." One of the merchants said.

Huangliu River... Sachiko roughly estimated the distance in his mind - ten days for a normal ninja.Not a possible accident.

Another businessman looked at the expressions of the two ninjas, pondered for a moment, and asked, "Can we help you?"

Xingzi thought about it, and felt that it was okay to tell the situation of the two of them, so she half-truthfully said: "We came out to carry out the mission before, but we were separated from the original army due to the battle. We want to go back as soon as possible; if the team picks up again If there is no news from us, you should be anxious."

"The two of you have worked hard all the way." The businessman nodded understandingly and sighed, "To tell you the truth, the people we brought with us are ordinary farmers who left their homes because of the war and couldn't find a way to live in the city and could only live in shacks. ...If this situation continues for another month, they will have to wait to die."

These words suddenly awakened Wei's memory: "Yeah... Sachiko and I came all the way before, but we didn't see anyone. On the battlefield, especially..." She also said helplessly.

"So, it's really respectable for you two to fight for the defense of the country. If it weren't for ninjas like you, the situation of the villagers would only be worse." The businessman said with sincerity.

"No way." Wei hurriedly backed down; Xingzi also said, "Business groups have also provided jobs for many people."

"That's our duty." A businessman laughed.

Speaking of this, another businessman who had been thinking hard before suddenly said: "I remember!" He said, looking at Sachiko and Wei, "From here to the west, there is a unit of the United Army in the nearest city. We are at the logistics base; we are going to deliver a batch of supplies the day after tomorrow, so we can just tell them the news, and save you from having to work hard to find a team."

"Thank you very much!" Sachiko and Wei immediately said in unison.

"It's just..." the businessman showed a hesitant look, "I'm a little worried. As you can see, these villagers really don't have much fighting power, and the convoy will spend three days in a virgin forest..."

"Please don't worry," Sachiko immediately assured, "Wei and I will escort the convoy all the way."

Wei also nodded repeatedly.

"Thank you so much." The businessman said, "Please be sure to stay for the next few days, and let us have the opportunity to entertain you."

Xingzi and Wei originally didn't want to trouble others, but they really had nowhere to go, so they finally said, "I'm really sorry to trouble you."

******

For the next two days, the two female ninjas stayed in the village, helping the consortium and the villagers to carry out repair work; and with their help, the work process was indeed accelerated a lot, and the villagers no longer trembled when they opened their mouths. , and sometimes you can even chat with them for a while-the last point became very obvious after the topic of ""Fact Report"" appeared, and even surprised the two female ninjas: Unexpectedly, among the more than 100 villagers There are more than 20 enthusiastic supporters of the magazine.

Compared with the green eyes when talking about "Fact Report", the mood of the villagers is particularly low when it comes to the external situation-they are lucky enough to survive to be hired, and the other refugees died of starvation and freezing, More than a few?A villager mentioned the scene of "human cannibalism" he had seen, and the scene made the middle-aged man couldn't help but burst into tears.They also mentioned that the Sakura Merchant Group hired them to build a supply station in this man-made semi-inhabited area, and there was more than one station; this also made Sachiko and Wei feel very novel.

Two days passed quickly, and about twenty young and middle-aged villagers drove three trucks and set off from the village.Xingzi and Wei followed as guards, both looking forward to and helpless about returning to the Allied Army.
