People are in Konoha, this Naruto lies flat

Chapter 188 Seven Masks
"This place." Ino was wearing a thin blue sweater and a hood, looking back at the dark red torii gate, "How many years have no one been here?"

Hearing this, Naruto thought about it, and the Uzumaki clansman on Konoha was probably Kushina.

"It's been ten years."

"Huh?" Ino shrank back, "It's been abandoned like this for only a dozen years?"

"Is there a possibility that it was abandoned more than ten years ago?" Naruto couldn't help correcting him, "This is the Uzumaki clan's shrine, and no one has visited it for a long time."

"Huh? Uzumaki Clan?" Ino looked at Naruto.

"I just found out." He smiled. "Although my first name has the same surname, that's all. I don't know anything else."

A broken water tank in the yard caught Ino's attention, and she was about to walk over, but Naruto grabbed her.

"Where?"

"There's a water tank over there." She pointed to the corner of the rubble, "There seems to be something wrong."

"Don't wander around here." Naruto glanced at Ino with complicated eyes, "That thing is not a water tank, you have to take a closer look."

"But that's obviously a water tank." Ino was a little confused, and turned his head to look again.

There is no water tank in the overgrown corner, but there is only a pile of bones that can't be distinguished whether they are human or animals. Around the pile of bones, there are a few strangely colored purple flowers blooming.

"Ah!" Ino was frightened into a cold sweat, it turned out to be a hallucination, "Just now I clearly"

"It's okay, just don't get close there." Naruto pulled her and held the girl's hand, "It's not too dangerous here, just follow me closely, everything will be fine."

A dilapidated shrine is, to put it bluntly, an empty tomb.Naruto wasn't too nervous, it was the masks hanging in the shrine that did this.

Kicking open the door lightly, the shrine was empty except for some fallen debris on the ground.In the empty inner hall, it was so quiet that only the footsteps of two people could be heard.

A gust of wind blew and creaked the broken door.

"Naruto, you. Did you hear that someone was laughing?" Ino swallowed and kept looking behind them, as if something was following them all the time.

"No." Naruto didn't change his face.

"It seems to be crying again." Ino's whole body was close to him, holding onto his hand tightly, "Naruto, should we leave here first."

The girl's voice trembled a little, and Naruto could feel the strength of Ino's hand holding him gradually getting stronger.She was still retreating softly, her broken thoughts echoing faintly in the empty inner hall.

She said whether to bring Shikamaru and the others to come together, it might be safer if there are more people.Naruto just listened, his eyes fixed on the 27 masks on the wall.

In response to Ino's thoughts, he occasionally nodded and responded with a hmm.

Some things cannot be avoided, they come and go.Whether it's funny or crying, he's decided on the inheritance of the Uzumaki Clan, even if the Sages of the Six Paths come, it's useless.

There are 27 ghost masks hanging on the wall, each mask is hideous, and the death mask is in the middle.

"Stay here and don't move." Naruto said suddenly.

"Ah? Then you... what are you going to do?" Ino was a little scared, and his face turned pale when he remembered the crying, "Am I standing here alone?"

"I'm not going anywhere, just here." Naruto let go of Ino's hand, looked around, and then picked up a long stick at the bottom of the wall.

Ino stood there honestly. An hour ago, she thought that this time she was following Naruto to visit a certain shrine to pray for blessings.Who knows that she is a little panicked now.

Things developed in a strange direction, and she stood shivering in the middle of the inner hall of the shrine.

The door panels creaked again, this time there was obviously no wind.Ino saw footprints appearing on the ground, and the mask on the wall stared at her sullenly.

There is a big problem with this shrine!

The direction of the footprints stopped three meters away from Ino, and then went straight towards Naruto. Ino opened his mouth to remind him, but found himself speechless.

Naruto seemed completely unaware that the surrounding situation was wrong, and stood under the mask wall with the long stick he picked up, poking and poking to poke the mask off.

Ino clearly saw that the string of footprints had already walked behind Naruto, her body was completely frozen, unable to move or speak, she could only watch helplessly.

Suddenly, with a snap, a mask fell from the wall.

Naruto bent down to pick it up, and suddenly heard the wind behind him, he couldn't help feeling a little strange.Ino looked at Naruto and turned his head suddenly, but he had already put on the fallen evil ghost mask on his face.

call!
All sounds disappeared, and the inner hall of the shrine returned to silence.

Ino suddenly felt that he could move, and took a big breath, as if he had never breathed.

"Naruto, behind you!"

Halfway through speaking, she froze again.Because there were no footprints in front of Naruto who turned around, as if everything just now was an illusion.

"What's behind?" Naruto asked doubtfully, taking off his mask.

"No, it's nothing." Ino asked a little uneasy, "Can I go to your side now? I'm a little scared."

"Come here, it's okay." He beckoned and signaled Ino to come over.

After standing beside him, Ino breathed a sigh of relief, turned to look at the mask in his hand, and asked.

"what is that?"

"It's just an ordinary mask." Naruto threw it into the sealed space.

Then he pointed to the remaining 26 masks on the wall and said, "Wait for me, when I take off all these masks, I can go."

"it is good."

Naruto said to Ino while taking off the mask.

"I told you that you don't have to come, there is not even a living person in this place."

Ino didn't say a word, knowing that now is not the time to vent his anger.She waited until Naruto threw all the 26 masks into the sealed space, and when the two slowly withdrew from the barrier of the Uzumaki clan, she pinched Naruto's waist heavily.

"Ah!!" Naruto screamed, "Ino, you are going to kill me!"

"You deserve it." Ino said angrily.

"Why do I deserve it?" Naruto gasped, and muttered while touching his waist, "Wait, it's only in the coming day, and I won't have your good fruit in the future."

"What are you whispering there?"

"It's nothing, it seems that someone is talking to me, did you see it?"

"Ah!!" Ino screamed, his face suddenly turned pale.

"Just kidding, I see you are so nervous and active." Naruto said meanly.

Ino: "."

This man is damned!
"So you're afraid of those things?" Naruto and Ino walked side by side, slowly heading towards the village.

"It must be scary, who is not afraid of those things." Ino said with lingering fear, "I will definitely not come to such a place with you next time, it's too scary."

"Haha, what you see is just an illusion." Naruto explained, "Where are there so many strange things in this world, just don't take it to heart."

"Of course I know." Ino said bravely.

"It's still early, where are you going?" Naruto suggested casually, "If you have nothing to do, just stay with me."

"Huh? What excuses are you looking for? You foot fetish."

"You have misunderstood me too much." He said casually, his eyes wandering in the forest in early spring, "Is there a possibility that I am not only a foot fetish."

"Oh, really, I'm so sorry! I misunderstood you, pervert!" Ino said with his hands behind his back, his mouth slightly raised.

"I don't want to be like this either, it's all because Ino is so cute."

"Hmph, have you started to be shameless? Say such shameful things without blushing." Ino has been immune to his occasional obscenities.

When Ino said this, his expression was a little cute.She accepted the cute compliment openly, but she still wanted to scold others arrogantly as a pervert.

Girls with this attribute are absolutely rare, and there may be fewer people who like this kind of personality.Oh, it just so happens that he is one of the audience, and he really enjoys the flirtatious abuse of beautiful girls.

Ino has a very pure personality, just the kind of opponent who will continue to grow, but also like a girl who will blush as soon as she speaks more forcefully.

"I'm telling the truth. I haven't seen Ino for a long time, so I miss him very much." He said.

"Oh, has the lie been used so naturally now? I don't believe it, slightly." Ino seemed to be in a good mood, and his thinking became active.

If it was normal, she would be shy first, and then doubt the authenticity of what Naruto said.But now she sees through it at a glance. Is it really because of becoming sharp?

Naruto was suddenly relieved, as if he had finally cultivated Ino into a familiar appearance, and it seemed that she would be ashamed if she couldn't say something simply in the future.

But there is another way.

Taking a deep breath, Naruto ran to the front in one breath, then turned to look at Ino.The distance between the two was about 30 meters, and the forest was deep and silent.

"What's wrong with you?" Ino was a little confused, not knowing what Naruto wanted to do.

"Ino, you are so cute!!!" Naruto yelled at Ino, thumping and thumping, startling the birds in half the forest.

"Eh? Eh!!" Ino's face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the sense of shame was too strong, "What are you shouting for!"

"You pervert! Don't run!"

The next day, the sky outside the window was clear.

Naruto went out after washing up, stepped on the road of Konoha Avenue alone, and slowly merged into the flow of people on the street.The air is humid and hot in the bustling streets.

At times like these, the benefits of having few friends come into play.

Even though he survived the catastrophe at sea, there were only a few friends who were free to visit him. The third and eighth squads were doing missions outside the village, and they didn't come back so soon.

When they come back, they will probably be surprised to hear that they have returned from the sea uninjured.He wanted to see Inuzuka's reaction, he should be very jealous of his genius ability to lead the team.

In short, life has returned to normal.

Fenghua Xiaoxue and Haruno Sakura seem to have a physical problem, probably due to the experience of drifting at sea.It is also possible that one relaxes and then falls ill. He has heard many such cases.

He walked slowly on the road, today he was going to the hospital to see Haruno Sakura and Fenghua Xiaoxue.After the red bean, he was discharged from the hospital in one step, and there was no problem with his health.

Routinely visit teammates, and by the way, see when the mission target will be able to recover and be discharged from the hospital.Although it is a bit unreasonable to say this, the fact is that he can get the reward of Flying Thunder God only by restarting the mission.
