Build a Swarm Tech Tree in Konoha

Chapter 438 The Secret and Grand Underground Transportation Line
The people in the second small town seemed to be more anxious to leave, and even waited at the door ahead of time, which surprised the ninja in black who was leading the way.

What's the matter with this family, they stand so carelessly outside the town, it's too easy for people to find out the abnormality.

He clearly ordered not to leave home early to avoid accidents caused by being discovered.

The black-clothed ninja couldn't help but worry, could it be that he was being targeted?

The act of stealing people has been a bit too aggressive recently. Did Yanyin Village have heard something and sent ninjas to investigate?

When the hundreds of thousands of poor people were transported away, there was no disturbance at all. After all, there were still tens of millions of poor people who left the country by themselves in order to escape famine.

Millions of farmers with little land were also transported away after selling their land. There is also no need to worry, after all, those who bought the land will help cover it up.

But now all the people transported are the original middle class and well-to-do people. Most of these people have special skills. Come on, many of them can read and count, and they are all the backbone talents of a country.

In exile and death, the Land of Earth has lost nearly half of its population. Although these people have no direct connection with Yanyin Village, it would be shameful if Yanyin Village has not noticed it yet.

The black-clothed ninja thought about giving up on this family several times, but he couldn't move when he thought of the task reward. As long as he took out one person, Zhou Wenming would give 5 taels, and an extra 2 taels for young men and women. An additional 5 taels.

There are nine people in this family, men, women and children, and the combined price is more than 70 taels, which is not worse than the price of an A-level task.

The reason why the ninja in black went to the Land of Earth to take risks is to make money. The income of 70 taels is in front of him. How can he give up? This amount of money is enough to fight the Jonin.

"Fight hard, how could it be so unlucky."

The ninja in black finally made up his mind, walked out from his hiding place, and approached the family quietly.

……

Yanyin Shangren Huangtu's patience is excellent, he silently lurks under the ground, while monitoring the captive bait above his head, he listens carefully to the movement on the ground.

Suddenly very light footsteps came to his ears, once, twice, three times, the footsteps were light and the landing points were very far apart, Huangtu quickly judged that it was the footsteps of a ninja.

"This is the target I want to ambush, hmph, no matter who he is or what he wants to do, he will be interrogated."

When the ninja approached the bait, his center of gravity and posture had been adjusted to force downward, ready to jump on the ground for the last time. Suddenly, the ground where he was going to land turned into an empty pit.

At this time, the ninja can't do anything, and can only fall into the trap full of fear and helplessness. After all, in the ninja world, flying ninjas are very rare.

Huangtu is a ninja who is very experienced in combat. Before the target fell to the bottom, he manipulated the ground to close up and suffocated the ninja underground.

The simple-faced Huangtu didn't have any malice, simply crushed all the limbs of the ninja, and then broke half of his ribs, before releasing the target from the ground this time.

The black-clothed ninja who had just emerged from the ground let out a breath, twisting his torso like a snake trying to escape, and the broken limbs and ribs could not stop him from surviving.

But the loess also floated up from the ground, and his chubby fingers quickly formed seals, almost performing a simple ninjutsu.

Tudun·Yellow Spring Marsh

The black-clothed ninja could only struggle feebly in the quagmire, Huangtu rushed over in two steps, grabbed the back of the ninja's neck, bent it slightly, and instantly the black-clothed ninja became a paraplegic.

Then came the smooth binding, sealing, and packaging. Although the man in black kept screaming throughout the process, Huang Tu's expression was only serious and calm.

He is like a fishmonger, doing a job he has repeated countless times without any passion at all.

At this time, a few Yanyin ninjas appeared behind the bait family, and they asked, "What about these people? Should we deal with them now?"

Huang Tu shook his head and replied: "No, take them back, Master Tuying wants to see them."

"It's always necessary to find out the reason. These people are too fragile. They don't know anything after they die. It's better to hypnotize them while they're alive to learn more."

The ninjas immediately nodded their heads and grabbed the ordinary people of this family of five like chickens.

Huang Tu also took his captives and left quickly.

"Really don't stop me?" Suddenly, a voice sounded from more than 200 meters in the air, "After all, it is in front of us."

"Do not."

The two figures broke out of the invisible state, and quietly looked at the Yanyin ninja who was about to leave the field of vision.

The butler stepped on the obviously wrinkled air, and said with a little unbearable: "This family of five went to Yanyin Village, and the end will definitely not be much better. Even if the ninja's hypnosis is not fatal to ordinary people, it will definitely Let their sanity be destroyed and become idiots."

Younv Tieswan's eyes were calm, and she said lightly: "At any time, everyone has to take responsibility for their actions, but the price paid in peacetime is not big, but in the torrent of the times we set off, the price is very high. It's going to be big."

"But he took the initiative to report to Yanyin Ninja, even if the cost is the lives of himself and his family, it is not the reason why I need to save him."

"The same is true for that ninja. He clearly discovered the crisis, but took the risk for money. It can only be said that he deserved his death."

Younv Tiewan sighed, and said, "Let's go, let's go to other places to have a look. We came out together to relax, but we saw such a bad thing, really."

……

Kichijiro squatted in the grass with his whole family, staring at the dark town with full attention, and the buzzing bugs around him couldn't affect him at all.

The man in black who showed them the way said that he was going to pick up another family in the small town ahead, and it had been half an hour since they had been left here, and Kichijiro's heart was beating faster and faster, and he couldn't help thinking about it.

Fortunately, after more than ten minutes, the man in black led a group of nine people back. Without saying a word, he gestured to Jijiro who was hiding in the grass, and then merged together and quickly left the town. scope.

This time, the direction of travel was to point directly to the nearest mountainous area, and we hurried all the way without saying a word, and finally entered the mountainous area at the darkest hour before dawn.

Kichijiro never expected that this silent man in black on the road started cursing after entering the mountain, cursing at the man in that family as he walked.

In fact, to sum it up, this family is too disobedient. They clearly said they would wait at home, but they ran outside by themselves. I don’t know how many people saw it. They will no longer be able to work in this small town.

"You are so reckless, it is your luck that no accident happened this time, and it is also my luck, but your small town will be miserable in the future, and even the boldest ferrymen dare not go there."

"Think about your current life, your neighbors, they are completely hopeless, they will starve to death, it's all your fault!"

The ninja in black was finally tired of cursing, looked at the sky and the environment, and finally decided to take a break.

By the side of a clear stream, the ninja in black distributed a cube of dry food to everyone, repeatedly told them not to start a fire, and then rested by himself.

In fact, he was too worried. The fourteen people here are all urban residents, and they have basically zero experience in wild survival. It is impossible for them to start a fire in the wild, because none of them thought of bringing kindling when going out.

And after a night of walking, everyone was already extremely tired and had no intention of tossing about.

Everyone swallowed the dry food hastily, and drank the stream water until they were full. After that, no matter adults, children, old people, or women, they all lay down on the spot, and fell asleep regardless of the dew on the ground.

After two hours of sleep, Ninja woke everyone up and moved on.

At this time, maybe because the anger had been vented, the ninja didn't curse anymore, and silently led the crowd all the way across the mountains, walking very slowly.

Fortunately, the road in the mountain area was not far away. When it was dark again, everyone came to a cave hidden behind vines.

The ninja checked a hidden sign near the cave, and after confirming its safety, he led them in without hesitation.

Turning two turns in the cave, the ground of the cave became very flat, and the sides and top were also neatly shaped, obviously a tunnel dug by hand.

Lighting lights were installed on both sides of the tunnel, and the road became very easy to walk. After walking downhill for more than an hour, they reached an artificial underground river, and everyone changed to boats and went down the river.

The boat traveled along the river, and along the way it continued to merge into the tributary, which became wider and wider, and finally it was large enough to accommodate several parallel boats.

As the river merges, there are more than one boats traveling on the river surface. It is strange that several boats have exactly the same distance before and after, which makes people feel strange.

At this time, Kichijiro's five-year-old son was tired of looking at the underground river, so he leaned on the side of the boat to watch the current, and even stretched out his hand to pull the water surface.

Suddenly the child was frightened and screamed: "Monster! There are monsters under the water!"

The ninja standing at the bow immediately shouted loudly: "Don't move at all, it's a psychic beast, it won't harm you, but if you move around and fall off the boat, you will die."

But some people will not be able to hear what others say when they panic. It is not the first time that Ninja has been a ferryman. He is very experienced in this kind of situation, and he immediately acted politely.

He quickly made a circle along the side of the ship, hit the people who were trying to jump up with the kunai ring, knocked five people unconscious in the cabin, and deliberately beat them to the point of bleeding.

The blood and the ninja's ghostly movements stunned everyone, and the ship only shook slightly before returning to its steady state and continuing to move forward at a constant speed.

Seeing that the crisis was resolved, the ninja put away the kunai, returned to the bow and continued to stare at everyone.

After three hours of sailing, the ship arrived at a vast cave, boarded the pier from a springboard made of strange materials, and someone docked with the ninja.

The person who came was a young and overly blond boy with a smile as warm as the sun.

When the ninja saw this boy, a happy smile appeared on his face, and he even joked jokingly: "Oh, Naruto-kun, it's really lucky that you came to pick me up."

Naruto Namikaze said with a smile: "That's too exaggerated, Himekoji-kun was able to complete the task safely, I'm really gratified."

The ninja Ji Xiaolu was shocked when he heard Naruto's words: "Something happened? Did the Iwagakure ninja come out?"

"Well. Last night, six ferrymen did not return within the safe time. There were too many people. They must have been ambushed by Yanyin ninjas. Now the passages they involved have been closed."

Both Ji Xiaolu and Naruto Namikaze remained silent. They both knew that the ninjas who came to do the ferryman task were all wandering ninjas, and that falling into the hands of Yanyin Village would inevitably lead to death.

Ji Xiaolu was saddened by the death of the fox, and Naruto Namikaze was born with the heart of the Virgin Mary, but both of them are qualified ninjas. After 30 seconds of silence for the dead ninja, they continued to hand over the work.

After the handover, Naruto and Himekoji waved goodbye.

"Be careful in the next mission, and don't take any risks. Once something happens to you, more people will lose hope."

"Bah! Naruto, you should have said that I will be successful, and I took the risk to do this job to make money, so I won't take the risk casually."

Himekoji jumped back onto the boat, and the octopus carrying the boat under the boat dragged the boat back, returning along the route it came from.

Naruto Naruto led fifteen civilians to the depths of the cave. The boats on the river went back and forth, and people got off the boat and went ashore. After the handover, the young ninja led them to the same direction.

Kichijiro has been tossing for more than a day, and he has been traveling underground for a long time. He is more and more worried about the uncertainty of the future. The blond ninja who happened to lead the way felt very friendly, so he couldn't help asking: "Well, Sir, do you know where we are going?"

Naruto Bofeng replied with a smile: "The place you are going to is the Kingdom of Wind."

"Ah? Isn't the Kingdom of Wind a great desert? And I heard that it was occupied by evil spirits and killed everyone."

"Hahaha, this is a rumor from Yanyin Village. The Kingdom of Wind has been controlled by Zhou Wenming. We and Zhou Wenming are enemies of Yanyin Village. Don't believe these nonsense."

"You know, in order to bring you out of the Land of Earth, Zhou Wenming paid a lot of money for each of you."

"Ignoring the construction fee of the underground channel and the purchase fee of the boat, even the remuneration paid to the ferryman ninja is at least 5 taels per person."

"Ah!" Kichijiro was stunned. He never thought that his life was so valuable, 5 taels, a number that he would not be able to earn for many years.

As a self-made shop owner, Kichijiro knows that there is no free lunch in the world, and Zhou Wenming paid so much money for himself, what do they want?

Kichijiro began to worry about whether he could be worthy of the money, and what would happen to him if people thought he was worthless?
Bo Fengmingren noticed his worry and comforted him and said, "Don't worry, what Zhou Wenming wants is the population. After you settle down in the Kingdom of Wind, you only need to pay taxes on time and send your children to school. Zhou Wenming will naturally get enough rewards."

"And if your child is talented in learning and becomes a great talent in the future, Zhou Wenming will make a lot of money, and they will be very satisfied."

"It turned out to be like this?" Kichijiro was skeptical. It would be great if it was true, even if he lived in the desert for the rest of his life, he was very hopeful.
