Sara Senju hates round fans

Shaluo and Madara set off eastward, towards the mission village.

After a while, the two arrived at the village at lunch time.

The village is sandwiched between two big mountains, facing a river valley, but there are not many farmlands, and the land does not look fertile.Dilapidated stone-walled houses are interspersed on the hillside, and the village road is quite steep.Looking down from the cliff, one can see the swift and muddy river rushing forward.

As Shaluo walked up the steps, he looked at the sparse and pitiful farmland on the hillside and sighed, "No wonder people in this village want to move away! The land is too barren, even if there are no thieves, they can't grow much food."

"It's because the sword was sacrificed, so the ancestors stayed here for generations." Madara walked beside her and replied like this.

The two walked along the steep mountain road to a high place, and the elders in the village were waiting for the two ninjas.

The leader of this village is a rather majestic old woman, a character like everyone's grandmother. Although her hair is gray, her eyes are bright and dignified.The young people who followed beside her all looked like they lowered their heads in obedience in front of the old lady and dared not speak.

"Master Ninja, the sword we enshrine is called 'Little Fox Ball', which was made by the former emperor." The old lady showed a kind of pride that did not match the appearance when she mentioned the sword in her village, "Later The war in Kyoto was chaotic, and this knife was brought out by the generals. After many hardships, it was left in our village. The people in our village have respected it for generations."

"Huh?" Sha Luo frowned, doubting what the old lady said.

She knew that there was indeed a famous knife named "Xiaohuwan" in history.According to legend, the sword was forged with the help of Inari Myojin, and it is unique because of its divinity.But the question is, how could such a famous knife appear in such a small village?

I'm afraid a certain country knifesmith forged a fake that looks nothing like it, and it's specially used to deceive ordinary people who don't know much about it!And the ancestors of this village believed the swordsmith's lies, and kept a bunch of worthless scrap iron as a treasured sword, and sacrificed it from generation to generation.

Shaluo glanced at Madara, seeing that Madara also had a skeptical look, and guessed that the other party had the same idea as himself.

However, this kind of speculation cannot be said directly, otherwise, it will inevitably be annoying.So, Shaluo pretended to be amazed and said, "It turned out to be Xiaohuwan! I've heard about it for a long time, but I didn't expect it to be kept in this village." When the old woman showed a satisfied look, Shaluo asked politely, "Trouble please?" Let's go see the shrine where Kokomaru is enshrined!"

Satisfied by her bragging, the old woman led the two guests to the shrine higher up in the village.

"Xiaohumaru was originally kept by this shrine. The thieves nearby knew the prestige of the shrine, and they were afraid of being punished by the gods, so they didn't dare to offend at will..." The old woman pointed to the high place of the mountain as she walked.

It is the time when the maple is red, and the mountains are covered with layers of deep and shallow cinnabar colors.Among the patches of red maple, a few faded outlines of the torii gates of the gods are faintly revealed; and the houses of the shrine are also hidden among the mountains.

The old lady led the two of them through the torii gates and on the approach to the shrine.When they reached the sailor house, they stopped and sighed, "This shrine was very prosperous before. Since the war started, there have been few people coming."

Sha Luo let out a "huh" and nodded.Looking up, I found that the shrine in front of me was indeed quite dilapidated, and even the shrine ropes tied in front of the temple were old and yellow.There is a lot of thatch on the eaves to keep out the wind and rain; there are no weeds in the open space under the steps, obviously someone has carefully cleaned it.

It can be seen that although there is no money to repair the temple, the villagers have made great efforts to protect the shrine.

"How did the knife disappear?" Sha Luo asked, "Was it stolen by thieves?"

"It's possible! But I'm not sure." The old woman's face showed a sad look, "It was raining heavily on the day the knife disappeared, and the road was full of wet mud. The thieves did come to the village, but through On the shrine on the mountain road, there are no footprints or horseshoe marks left. In this way, it seems that the knife flew away by itself!"

The corner of Sharo's mouth twitched.

A knife, flew away by itself?How is this possible.

Someone must have stolen the knife and re-paved the footprints.

She winked at Madara.Uchiha Madara received her signal and said, "In short, let Ninja Beast go around to find out the news."

After speaking, he ended the seal of spiritism.Just listening to the sound of "bang", a large group of fur appeared in front of Uchiha Madara - the black cat squatted gracefully, the orange cat rolled on the ground and snored; the tabby cat was licking its paws, and the milky white cat Then planing something in the air.

"Meow meow meow……"

"Meow!"

"Meow meow meow!"

In an instant, the shrine was filled with meowing.

Sha Luo's eyes were about to stare straight.She couldn't help squatting down, petting this one, stroking that one, and sighed, "It's the first time I've seen you call so many ninja cats out."

The black ninja cat was the most familiar to her, and before she could reach out, he took the initiative to rub his hairy head against Sharo's palm.

Seeing her reluctance to leave, Madara reminded, "Sara, Ninja Cat is for investigation and intelligence gathering, not to play with you."

"...Okay." Sha Luo snorted softly, and reluctantly took his hand back.

Without her touch, the ninja cats stretched one after another, flexed their muscles and bones, and jumped around. With a few "swish" sounds, the cat's shadow disappeared into the forest.

The old woman looked suspiciously at the backs of the cats and asked, "Can wild cats help too?"

Sharo didn't want others to dislike ninja cats, so he explained, "Our ninja cats are very smart. They can not only communicate with people, but also do things that many people can't do, such as spying on intelligence secretly."

The old woman nodded half-understanding, and said, "Then these are your cats?"

Sharo choked on the words in his throat.

Uh, this really isn't her cat, it's Uchiha Madara's cat.

She said vaguely, "It's almost!" - Madara's ninja cat, that is Konoha's ninja cat.And she is Konoha's ninja.Therefore, Madara's ninja cat is equal to her ninja!

The three of them were standing in front of the shrine, suddenly there was an imperceptible vibration from the ground.Madara and Sharo noticed the abnormal tremor at the same time, and looked down at the shrine in unison.

Seeing them turning their heads, the old woman asked suspiciously, "What's the matter? Those cats found the knife?"

Madara frowned and said, "There are people approaching here, at least 16 of them, and they're all on horses. They're ordinary people, not ninjas."

Hearing what Madara said, the old lady gasped, her face turned pale, "It's a bandit! It's a bandit again!"

Sharo and Madara exchanged glances, and ran towards the village on the hillside at the same time.

Not long after, the two arrived in the village.I saw men in the village coming out of their homes aggressively, carrying hoes, rakes and other agricultural tools. Some were shirtless, some were barefoot, some tied a piece of cloth on their bodies indiscriminately, and their hair was dry. Hei's face was full of guard and anger.

"The thieves are coming again!"

"We've run out of food, why come here?"

the men of the village said angrily.

And at the entrance of the village full of gravel, there is a group of young and strong men, about fifteen or six, the leader is riding a horse, not to mention a knife at his waist, and holding a bow and arrow. Weapons looted there.At the end of the line, a row of prisoners, male and female, were tied with ropes, tied together in a string for convenience, like dried radishes sold in the market.The child tied up at the end was almost dragged on the ground because of his slow walk, his body was scratched and he was crying loudly.

"We don't have enough food for the winter, you come here again and again, it will be the same!" The villagers roared, "You also stole the sword from the shrine, be careful to be cursed by the gods!"

The leader of the thieves sneered and said, "How many times have I said that! We didn't take that broken knife. It's just a fake. Do you really think we'll like it? The real famous knife is on display in the palace!" Sneered After a sound, the leader squinted his eyes, and said in a dark voice, "I heard that you are going to move out? If you move to Konoha, you won't have to worry about food and clothing! Before you leave, leave everything to us. good!"

"You!" The faces of the villagers were bruised and purple from anger, and they were speechless.

The thief's eyes turned around in the crowd and landed on Sha Luo, his face suddenly brightened, "Oh! There is such a beauty in this poor and dilapidated place of yours? I have been here so many times, why haven't I seen her before?" Her?" As he spoke, he raised his eyebrows and said angrily, "How dare you hide people in front of me!"

Sharo?

Wait, who is the beauty talking about?

Sha Luo glanced to the left, and saw a muscular, muscular man with nose hair sticking out of his nostrils, she immediately looked back.Immediately afterwards, she glanced to the right again, and saw a bloated man who was hiccupping and having a big belly, so she looked back again.

Looking left and right, there is no one who meets the standard of "beauty".Could it be...

Sara glanced furtively at Madara Uchiha.I saw Madara looking at the thief calmly, the outline of his face was handsome and quiet, and his eyes were like a ball of black ink.

Could it be that the "beauty" mentioned by the bandit is Uchiha Madara? !

Quite discerning!

Sara gave a look of approval.

The leader of the bandits touched his saber and said, "Well, anyway, your village doesn't have much money, otherwise, just hand over this beauty to me, and this time I've gained something, so I won't embarrass you!"

All the villagers looked at each other, not knowing what to say.On the contrary, Shaluo jumped up and said, "Okay! It's settled like this!"

Her voice was full of air, and it spread throughout the valley.As soon as the words fell, everyone looked at her with treacherous eyes.

——What's the matter with this woman?Why would you voluntarily go to the bandits?This is a matter of being a slave for a lifetime!

Shaluo thinks simply that Uchiha Madara is not so easy to bully, let him follow the bandit now, maybe he can find out some news about the whereabouts of the sword.

Uchiha Madara on the side held his forehead and sighed, "It's messing around again..."

The bandit leader on the horse showed a wild smile, and laughed sinisterly, "Hahahaha, hahaha—I didn't expect you to be very clever! It seems that you also know what it means to be afraid! Then hurry up! come on!"

That's all, two strong bandits passed through the crowd and walked towards Shaluo.Then, they clasped Shaluo's hand from left to right, and threatened, "Woman, come here quickly! From now on, your husband will be our Lord Ghost Shura!"

The smile on Sharo's face froze.

--and many more?

Why is it her that the bandit came to catch, not Uchiha Madara?

"Wait a minute, where is the beauty—" She pointed in Madara's direction, trying to explain, but the two bandits didn't give her a chance to speak, and dragged her to the direction of the bandit leader, "Just be careful Serving Lord Ghost Asura, maybe I can be the wife of the city lord in the future..."

Sharo? ?

Her brows twitched wildly.

No matter how big-hearted Sha Luo is, he should know what is going on in front of him—the "beauty" that the bandit calls is not Uchiha Madara, but Sha Luo.

hateful!

The bandit had a good eye and praised her as a "beauty", but she didn't want to be the wife of the castellan!

The next moment, Shaluo flew up and kicked the man on the left hard.Hearing the sound of "dong", the man's body flew far away and rolled down on the mountain path, raising a cloud of dust; after several more rolls, the man collapsed in front of the mountain wall without making any sound up.

The sudden kick made everyone fall silent.The leader of the thieves named "Ghost Shura" widened his eyes, and after a long while, he began to scream like a cicada, "Smelly woman! How dare you touch my people! Give her to me!" I caught it!"

As soon as the words fell, Ghost Shura felt a chill in his ears, as if an iron object was flying past his skin, and two strands of hair were slowly falling down.He froze all over, turned his head stiffly, and saw two knuckles nailed silently to the tree behind him, penetrating three points into the wood, showing the great strength.

Seeing the kunai, Ghost Shura took a slight breath, knowing that there are people who are difficult to deal with in the village today.

At this moment, a tall dark blue figure slowly walked out from the crowd.In other words, it was the people who took the initiative to part ways, revealing his figure, like a ceremony to invite God.The man was wearing a long robe with a stand collar, his black hair was loose, and there was a dark light in his eyes, which made people dare not look at each other easily.

"He really doesn't love life..." In Uchiha Madara's words, there seemed to be regret.

Hearing his words, Ghost Shura's body couldn't help but tremble.He has been doing evil in the nearby villages for many years, but this is the first time he has seen such a person. He is far more terrifying than ordinary warriors and nobles, and he is not easy to mess with at first glance.

The silver-haired beauty just now was probably also brought by this man.Maybe she's still someone's concubine!

No wonder he had never seen the woman's face nearby.

To actually snatch a woman in front of others, this is courting death!

Under the intuition of survival, Ghost Shura immediately got off his horse and begged the man for mercy, "My lord, I was rude!" His wife let go?"

However, no one answered for a long time.

Ghost Shura was very puzzled, and when he looked back, he found that at some point, the subordinates behind him had been beaten to the ground, and all of them collapsed to the ground, and passed out with their eyes rolled.And Shaluo was standing beside the prisoners, untying the ropes for them thoughtfully, "Don't be afraid, I'll set you free right now..."

Ghost Shura almost died of anger.

Seeing that winter was coming, he also wanted to plunder some more stored food.Today, he robbed a lot of hostages from the previous village, but in this village, he met two extraordinary people. Not only did he not get anything, he even had to pay for the hostages he managed to get. !

Shaluo loosened the rope, released a few poor prisoners, clapped his palms again, and said to Ghost Shura, "That ghost over there...Ghost Mantou, yes, Ghost Mantou! You really don't know what is enshrined here The whereabouts of Xiaohuwan?"

"Who is the ghost mantou?!" Ghost Shura was so angry that he almost rolled his eyes and fainted, "I said it all, I have never touched that knife! It's a piece of broken iron, and it can't be sold for money. Who would waste energy on it? Grab that? It’s more realistic to find some women and food!”

Hearing what Ghost Shura said, Sharon patted his head in wonder.In this way, Xiaohuwan was really not snatched by these thieves.

In order to vent his anger, Sha Luo kicked Ghost Shura twice again.Her strength was not light, Ghost Shura was kicked in pain, and begged Madara for mercy, "My lord, I was wrong, I didn't know she was your wife. Please tell her to stop..."

As soon as Sha Luo heard this, he became angry, "Why do you only talk to Madara and don't plead with me? Besides, I'm not his wife!"

"Huh?" Ghost Shura was extremely puzzled.In today's troubled times, any woman who has the courage to walk around outside is the one who is married to a powerful husband and has someone to back her up, so she dares to show her face everywhere.That's why he decided that the silver-haired beauty was the man's concubine.But from her tone, the two of them don't seem to have that kind of relationship?

Ghost Shura asked flatteringly, "Then you are... sister?"

In reply, Sharo kicked him again.Ghost Shura was kicked onto the mountain wall, almost fainted from the pain.

"I am—his old enemy!"

Shaluo's voice echoed in the valley.

Seeing that Ghost Shura's subordinates were defeated, the angry villagers rushed forward, punching and kicking the gang of thieves who had been doing evil for a long time.For a while, the entrance of the village was very lively, and the wailing of thieves kept coming out.

Shaluo walked to Madara's side, and said confusedly, "It wasn't a thief who stole it, so who stole it? It wouldn't be like what my mother-in-law said, I really had wings and flew away!"

Madara suddenly raised her head and looked in the direction of the mountain path.He frowned, sniffed the air again, and said, "What have the Ninja Cats found, let's go and see."

"Any clues about Xiaohuwan?" Sha Luo asked.

"Yeah." Spotted nodded, pointing to the depths of the valley, "I'll go to the east, you go to the south. Shinobi will guide you."

"it is good."

After the two assigned tasks, they left behind the villagers who were entangled with the thieves and vented their anger, and walked towards the depths of the valley respectively.

Shaluo went to the east, and this was the way down. The further east he went, the closer he was to the turbulent valley river, and the land under his feet became more and more muddy, and the surroundings were full of water vapor.The sound of the rushing water of the river seems to be close to the ear, and even the sound of the flapping of the birds' wings is drowned out.

The spotted ninja cat was waiting for her on the path in the forest. It was a milky white ninja cat with blue eyes with a hint of green, like the sky after the rain.As soon as Shaluo saw it, he fell in love with it and couldn't help touching it.

"Little guy, what's your name?" Sharo asked with a smile while pinching the cat's high-heat ears, "May I give you a name? You're called Madara II, right? The black one is Madara, and you are Er Daime, the flower is the third generation..."

Madara Nidaimu seemed to be unable to stand being pinched by her, so he got out of her palm, meowed twice, and then walked towards the depths of the forest with his tail raised, as if eager to lead her the way.

"So diligent!" Sara sighed, following up with the small footprints of Madara II's plum blossoms.

The further you go into the depths of the forest, the less there are traces of human beings around, as if you have come to some otherworldly place that has not been disturbed by ordinary things.The river made a rushing sound, the trees were towering and towering, and the birds fluttered through them, not afraid of the passing Shaluo.

The second generation of Madara is currently leading the way, and Kitten's Claw walks very briskly.It stops and runs, leisurely as if walking.Shaluo was also willing to follow behind it, watching its dangling tail.But at a certain moment, Madara II Daime suddenly stopped.It raised its small head and meowed at a figure.

Looking at the figure that suddenly appeared, Sha Luo was stunned.

A hand landed on the top of Madara Nidaime's head, caressing slowly.The owner of the hand asked briskly, "Little cat, are you here again? Do you still want to groom your hair?~"

That hand was wearing a two-fingered black glove, and the forearm was wrapped with armor. It was clearly the hand of a warrior.Sha Luo moved his gaze upwards, only to find that it was a man in a half-open yellow-colored coat and a gray-and-white hakama suit, with red and black fine armor slanted on his shoulders, and a long sword tied around his waist.

"You are..." Sha Luo stared blankly at the other party.

"Ah... I forgot to introduce myself." The other party was still stroking Madara Nidaime fondly, and said softly, "I am Kohomaru, the sword made by Sanjo Muneki.... Although there is a 'small' in the name Words, but I'm big."

Sha Luo stood there in a daze, almost suspecting that he was hallucinating.

This man actually claimed to be the missing famous sword Xiaohumaru?

No, he wouldn't think that someone would believe such nonsense, would he?

People are people, weapons are weapons, it is impossible to change back and forth!

If he is Kokomaru, then she is Uchiha's flame fan!

Sha Luo was slandering inwardly, his eyes fell on the top of "Little Fox Pill" unexpectedly.On the top of Xiaohuwan's hair, there are two pieces of hair that look like ears, moving gently in the wind, they really look like the furry ears of a fox.

Sha Luo's face froze.

ears...furry...fox...

Want to pinch! !
