Chapter 69 Backstab
The news of Hoshino Mu's return to the village spread rapidly, so naturally not everyone was happy.

At this time, in Sand Eagle's mansion, four elders were sitting in a magnificent conference room.

A few months ago, it was very modest here.

Of course, this simplicity is compared with other big tribes. The average family may not be able to afford a chair here in their lifetime.

Not to mention now, each chair back is inlaid with huge gemstones, which is more luxurious than the chairs in the elder council hall of Fengying Building.

Shajiu glanced at everyone, and said slowly: "Everyone, everyone knows the news of Hoshino Mu's return, right?"

Youta nodded: "The problem now is that Luo Sha didn't come back."

As he spoke, he frowned.

To be honest, it took a lot of courage for him to sit here.

Originally from the Kazekage faction, when he first discussed the candidates for the Kazekage faction, he turned to the Kazekage faction and joined the Orange Juro. Later, he bet on Luo Sha in the "Battle for Kikyo City" and chose to return to the Kazekage faction.

Although the Presbyterian Council, apart from Chiyo and the other three, were tied to death, the positions of the others were not fixed, and it was not possible to say that whoever has milk is a mother, but it was not much better.

But it is rare for someone like me to repeatedly jump between two nurses in such a short period of time.

Youta didn't think it was his eyesight problem, he just thought he was unlucky.

Chiyo doesn't care about things, what's wrong with joining Orange Juro?
Hoshino Mu and Luo Sha are fighting for the wind and shadow, the gap is so big, he doesn't have the strength to know it, and the fool also closes his eyes and bets on Luo Sha, okay?

Don't talk about him, I heard that the people below have sold their houses at the opening of the market.

You must know that the houses in Shayin Village are very valuable now!
I follow the big favorites every time, who knows that I can be upset twice in a row?
This is not a version answer, it is clearly a version trap!
Now it seems that Hoshino Mu's situation is very good, but according to the experience of the previous two times, if he is hot, he will die, and the Kazekage faction still has a good chance.

Of course, as the head of the Ministry of Intelligence, he had to drill twice in a row, and he might have a bit of a mentality of trying to win his breath.

The faces of the other three people were also ugly when they heard this.

Unlike Chiyo and Orange Juro, the Kazekage faction grew up with the village. They took shape in the second generation through various innovations of the second generation, and formally developed in the third generation.

Of course, the name is the Kazekage faction, but in fact they are not loyal to Kazekage, but to protect their own interests through Kazekage. To a certain extent, they are more able to squeeze Kazekage than Orange Juro.

However, their relationship with Luo Sha is different, they are collaborators.

This is mainly because Luo Sha is different from the previous Fengying. He has a problem in his thinking, and he doesn't love the village enough, so he actually uses the mine veins as a condition to negotiate with them!
Shouldn’t the discovered mineral resources be handed over to the village free of charge?

It would be nice if they were in a good mood and gave him a little reward, how could they negotiate terms with them? !

Although the Fengkage faction was unhappy about this, there was nothing they could do about it. Luo Sha was the only magnetic escape ninja in the village who could explore ore veins.

But even if there are some conflicts between the two parties, the contradictions between the factions are obviously greater.

Now that Luo Sha is not here, we can't find someone to replace Luo Sha to run for Kazekage, that won't convince the public.

"This must have been deliberately arranged by Hoshino Mu."

An elder said angrily.

The others were silent, so what if they knew, even if Luo Sha received the news now, it was impossible to arrive immediately.

They have received a notice that an elders meeting will be held tomorrow on the issue of Hoshino Maki's succession to Kazekage.

It is impossible not to attend, the Council of Elders does not have a rigid requirement on the number of attendees, if not present is tantamount to giving up the competition for Fengying completely.

"Lord Chiyo won't stand in line. Let's hold off four-on-four first. Hurry up and call Luo Sha back to still have a chance."

A fat-headed elder said in a deep voice.

Youta cast a glance at the other party. Although he usually looked down on the other party's blood-sucking moth lying on the mine veins, what he said at this time made some sense.

Shajiu glanced at everyone and nodded slightly: "I also mean the same thing. In fact, after receiving the news that Hoshino Mu returned to the village, I have already sent someone to Jugeng City to inform Luo Sha."

Although allies, the sand vultures do not trust them.

Youta didn't say much, and jumped repeatedly. The remaining two also had to support Luo Sha because of the deep bond between the family and the mine vein. On the contrary, they were closer to Orange Juro in personal friendship.

That's why Shajiu didn't notify them until the meeting of elders was about to be held. As long as the meeting of elders was postponed, there would be more fights when Luo Sha came back.

At noon the next day, the scorching sun shone brightly, and the air was distorted a bit. It was rare for the streets of Shayin Village to return to the desolation of the past, and there were not many people in sight.

But if you listen with your ears up, you can hear the noise in the shops on both sides of the street.

Many izakayas, restaurants and bars are full, which is rare at this time of noon.
In a bar, many people gathered in front of a person at the bar, only to hear that person shout loudly:

"Hurry up! The last chance, bet Hoshino Mu or Luo Sha!"

"I'm Ya Luosha, don't look at the fact that Hoshino Mu has made a lot of money for the village recently, but it's not stable. If you really rely on Hoshino Mu, the village won't be hungry or full? How can there be any mineral veins?"

"I'm also betting on Luo Sha. Master Luo Sha's reputation among ninjas is not comparable to that of Hoshino Mu."

"Indeed, he doesn't even have a blood successor limit, how can he be Kazekage?"

"."

"I'm betting on Hoshino Mu, he's advanced Kikyo City, the location of Kazekage must be his."

Amidst the sounds of betting Luosha, this person seemed particularly abrupt,

A person next to him heard it and sneered: "Brother Xinsha is a hermit?"

The man's complexion was not very good-looking, and he stuck his neck: "You care about my old and new? Am I wrong?"

"The first half of the sentence is correct. It is true that Hoshino-sama is advanced to Kikyo Castle, but it is still the one that determines Kazekage's position."

The old Sha Yin gestured in the direction of Fengying Building and quickly put down his hands, with a confident look: "I understand, it's hard to say."

The Xinsha hermit looked hesitant when he heard the words, glanced at the other party's confident appearance, gritted his teeth, and pressed the 2000 tael ticket on the table: "I'll buy Luosha!"

He took the voucher and put it in his pocket, and casually asked the old Sha hermit: "By the way, how much do you charge Lord Luosha?"

"No, I bet on Hoshino-sama."

When the people around heard the conversation between the two, they were quiet for a moment, and burst into laughter instantly.

The man's face froze, and he was immediately annoyed. He grabbed the other party's collar and said, "Are you fucking kidding me?"

The old sand hermit was full of grievances: "You didn't ask me before you were imprisoned~"

Seeing the man raised his fist, Lao Sha Yin quickly waved his hand: "Don't worry! I bet early, when Hoshino-sama was 1:5, I thought about making a small bet, even if I lose, it won't be much, if I bet right, I will make money." It’s big. Now it’s 1:2.5, so I’ll definitely choose Mr. Luo Sha. Although it’s 1:1.6, you can earn 100 by betting 160, which is stable! It’s just that I did business with others a while ago, and now I can’t afford it. If you don’t lend me some, I’ll definitely return it!”

After hearing his explanation, the man's expression slowed down quite a bit, and he loosened his collar: "Tell me earlier brother, but unfortunately I don't have much money, so you should borrow it from someone else. I won't know about such a good thing until next time." When will it be?"

After finishing speaking, he snapped his fingers at the bartender and asked for a glass of wine to sit aside.

At this moment, the dealer yelled: "In the last 5 minutes, I have bought and left, and the deal has been closed!"

When the other people saw this, they didn't bother to laugh, and thought about who to bet on, but after much deliberation, under the urging of the dealer, most of them finally bet on Luo Sha.

Such scenes were staged all over the hidden sand village. With the sound of the door of the elder council hall being closed, the bet on Fengying's candidate was also officially closed.

There are quite a few people in the council hall today. Although the chiefs of many tribes do not have the right to vote, they will also attend as witnesses on this special occasion.

Everyone stood around the round table of the presbytery like stars and the moon, and only took their seats after Chiyo's approval.

Orange Juro sat next to Chiyo, watching the scene in front of him.

This scene has been staged countless times in the past, and he didn't think it was a big deal, but in recent years, he felt a little uncomfortable.

Why do some people cling to their rights despite their age?
Didn't you say that you don't ask about the affairs of the village?

Untrustworthy, greedy for authority.

Orange Juro's evaluation of Chiyo dropped a bit.

He glanced at Xing Yemu, this guy is the key to his control of Shayin Village, and he can give him a face when he runs out.

At this moment, Hoshino Mu seemed to feel his gaze, and turned his head to show him a kind smile.

What an innocent boy~
Orange Juro nodded to him, after all he was still young and didn't understand the sinister heart.

Do you really think that a pipe can buy him off?
Hehe, although this kid is considered scheming, he is still quite immature in front of him.

Chiyo's eyes swept over the faces of the elders, and said in a weak and hoarse voice: "Everyone knows what happened today, so I won't say more. I don't care about the matter of Kazekage, it's up to the elders to decide."

After finishing speaking, she lay back with her thin and stooped body and closed her eyes.

Following her movements, Hai Laozang and Cuttlefish also put their arms around their chests, leaning on the back of the chair and not intending to intervene in this matter.

On Orange Juro's side, it was obvious that he had already made preparations. Dongsen spoke first: "I don't think everyone has anything to say about this meeting. Follow the agreement in advance. Winners and losers, hurry up and organize Hoshino Mu's inauguration ceremony."

As soon as Dong Sen finished speaking, only one person snorted coldly: "The previous agreement was not fair. The routes of both parties are different. It is obviously easier for Hoshino Mu. I don't think it counts."

Dong Sen smiled: "It's all agreed in advance. If you think it's unfair, why didn't you mention it beforehand? Luo Sha didn't object."

He wasn't fooled.

If the discussion is about fairness or unfairness, there will be some arguing, and it will not be clear for three days and three nights.

What Orange Juro wants here is to finalize the matter today.

"Luo Sha is young, so it's inevitable that he will be confused by villains."

Sand Vulture finished speaking in a flat tone, and cast his eyes at Xing Yemu.

Hoshino Mu almost couldn't hold back his laughter.

In his 20s, the father of two children is still young, isn't he?

He quickly glanced at the people around him, and saw that everyone's faces remained unchanged, and it seemed that they were used to this kind of nonsense.

Seeing the other party's suppressed smile, Sand Vulture frowned slightly.

How can such a person be a Kazekage with a hippie smile on such a solemn occasion?

Orange Juro opened his mouth slowly: "Luo Sha is young and fine, and there are no children here, right? This matter was decided by the elders at the beginning, presumably the elders will not overturn the decision of the elders, right?"

Sand Vulture looked a bit embarrassed, but he still said: "Of course, the resolution of the elder council cannot be overturned, but such a big matter should be studied carefully, at least after the battle is over and both of them return."

"What, you mean that Luo Sha can overturn the resolution of the elders' council when he comes back?"

An elder next to him put a big hat on him.

"Of course not! What I mean is that the selection of Fengying candidates should be more comprehensive. Considering everything comprehensively, it is better to add a few more assessment items."

"How many more? Add until Luo Sha wins?"

The two sides clashed fiercely with each other, and the round table was hammered and thumped, and the Fengying faction was gradually at a disadvantage.

This is also a matter of no choice. If it is reasonable to say that our side has lost the agreement, and Luo Sha is not here, it must be a disadvantage, so Shajiu waved his hand: "It's meaningless to say more, if that's the case, let's vote to decide."

As he said that, he glanced unobtrusively at Orange Juro.

If the ticket is tied, the matter can be dragged on. If it goes well, it may be turned around in one fell swoop!
Chiyo seemed to have just woken up. Seeing that both sides had no objection, she said lazily, "Then let's vote. Raise your left hand if you support Hoshino Mu, raise your right hand if you support Luo Sha, and cuttlefish roe will count the votes."

After speaking, he lay back down again.

Sand Vulture raised his right hand by himself, and seeing Dong Sen making the same movement opposite him, the two looked at each other and smiled.

The real confrontation is always under the round table.

He didn't pin all his hopes on Dongsen, especially when the other party's attitude towards him at the beginning was not like acting, which made him think that the other party changed his mind temporarily, but he didn't expect that he was thinking too much. At the critical moment, the other party was not ambiguous.

One increase and one decrease in the number of votes is a lore!

His eyes turned to Orange Juro's face, and he saw that the other person's expression was also very happy, even happier than himself.

It was a kind of joy that had been accumulated for many years and then burst out once it broke out.

Orange Juro crazy?
A bad feeling filled his heart.

Sand Vulture suddenly turned his head, only to see the two elders on his side raised their left hands slightly to their ears.

At this moment, Cuttlefish's voice sounded: "3 votes for Luo Sha, 5 votes for Hoshino Mu!"

Seeing Sand Vulture's scorching eyes staring at them, the two of them immediately felt thorns on their backs, and smiled awkwardly: "After listening to what Elder Cheng Juro said, I think Hoshino Mu is more suitable."

The ups and downs of life are so sudden, and the front foot is still happy to stab someone in the back, but the back foot stabs two knives into his lower back.

It's not that he didn't think that there would be traitors on his side, but he never thought that there would be two at once!

Orange Juro patted Dongsen's shoulder affectionately, looked at the sweat on his forehead, and handed over the handkerchief: "Why is your head sweating profusely, is the pressure so heavy? Wipe it off quickly."

Dong Sen squeezed out a smile, stretched out a trembling hand to take the handkerchief: "Thank you, thank you."

He didn't think that his backstabbing opponent wouldn't say anything, so he hurriedly raised his head and cast a look of help at the sand vulture, but what caught his eyes was the pale face of the sand vulture and Youta's unbelievable eyes.

I bet wrong again? !

Youta swallowed hard, so what. Is it too late to change nurses?
