Konoha: This ninja is suspicious by nature

Chapter 185
"Explanation? What do I have to explain to you? You were invited by Meng Zong, not me." Hong Ming responded coldly.

Pay attention to see that the counselor is not willing to enter, and he can't ask anything useful at the moment, but he still wants to go in to see what's going on in the temple behind him, so he asks: "Sir, can I see this temple?"

"Sorry, my guards are solely responsible for the affairs here now. I order you to leave immediately!" Hong Ming had a tough attitude.

Hexin glanced at the temple behind him and smiled helplessly, then left with Neji and Tenten looking indignant.

Returning to Mr. Meng's mansion, it was also where He Xin and his party were staying temporarily.In the room, everyone sat together and talked about tonight's events.

Tian Tian was the first to speak, "That Lord Hong Ming is very problematic. We saw the ghost warrior running out of his mansion with our own eyes, and he still didn't let us check the temple. He must have something in his heart!"

Ning Ci nodded and said: "I saw with supercilious eyes that the ghost warrior who came out of his mansion was pretending to be a living person, but the one who came out of the temple later must not be a human being. Things seem to be getting more and more bizarre."

After careful consideration, he said: "It is certain that the ghost warrior has something to do with Hong Ming, but it is not yet known whether he is behind the scenes. His attitude is indeed too tough, and it seems to be trying to hide it."

He looked at Kakashi carefully and asked: "Kakashi-sensei, is there anything unusual here at Meng Zong?"

"There is nothing unusual." Kakashi listened to what the three of them had just experienced, "Is there indeed a ghost?"

Hexin nodded and said, "If it's an illusion or other secret technique, Neji and I should be able to tell. It's really weird."

Kakashi's expression was solemn. Ghosts and ghosts are indeed a bit unimaginable. He said, "The current clue is still the temple. Even if Lord Hongmei doesn't let us check it, we have to find a way to take a look secretly."

"I want to go with Qiandao to meet the Daimyo Sagi tomorrow. Ningji, go to the Daimyo's tomb and see if you can spot the problem with your Byakugan. You should monitor Hongming every day and find a chance to check the temple's problems, Kaka. Teacher Xi still wants to keep an eye on Meng Zong, how about that?"

Everyone listened and paid attention to what was said and nodded in understanding. It was more appropriate to act this way.

"If you find anything, just wait and see what happens. Don't act impulsively." Hexin finally warned, and everyone agreed.

Early the next morning, Hexin waited for Qiandao in the hall of Meng Zong's mansion.

"Pay attention, did you meet a ghost warrior last night?" Qiandao trotted over and asked eagerly.

Hebei felt suspicious in his heart. He had not mentioned this matter to anyone in Meng Zong's house, "How did you know?"

"This matter has spread." Qian Dao leaned closer and said quietly, "It is said that the ghost warrior came out of Lord Hongming's mansion last night, and the neighbors and common people all know about it."

He paid attention to this matter and pretended that he didn't care for the time being, and asked: "Can you let me see the great heron?"

Brother Qiandao said: "Although I am a daimyo servant boy and Lord Lu's playmate since he was a child, I haven't seen him for a long time. Ever since his sister, Princess Zhulu passed away, Lord Lu rarely met with some ministers. .”

Sadness permeated Qiandao's heart. He sighed and said: "Master Lu turned out to be a positive, optimistic and idealistic person. First his father passed away and then his sister passed away. He must be in pain. As a minister and friend, I really Want to do something."

If the ghost warrior is related to the dead old daimyo, then the current daimyo Lord Sagi must know some inside information. Please pay attention to such speculations. However, it is a bit difficult for Lord Sagi not to see anyone.Sneak into the palace secretly?This is the only option.

Qiandao thought for a while, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Maybe we can try it!"

A calm and peaceful lake, with rows of egrets dancing gracefully under the blue sky and white clouds, and the river bank is filled with green grass and the fragrance of flowers.Qiandao and Hexin were hiding among the dense reeds. "This is where Mr. Heron, his sister and I often come to play. We have always liked coming here to see egrets since we were little."

It turns out that Qiandao's solution is to squat, which is much slower than sneaking into the palace directly. Who knows when Master Lu will come here to play, but since he is here, he can only finish squatting for a day.

There's movement!Just hearing the sound of mooing coming from the path, a shiny black bull pulled a jeweled sedan to the river bank. The sedan was surrounded by dozens of officers and soldiers guarding it.

I've only been squatting there for 10 minutes and someone is here?

The curtain of the sedan chair was gently opened by a white arm, revealing the delicate features of an exquisite nobleman. The short dark purple hair added a heroic temperament to the white skin, but his face was full of sorrow, and he was a bit locked in the palace wall. of sorrow.

"That's Lord Lu, right?" Liu Xin asked softly.

Qiandao nodded and said, "Yes, this is Master Lu's favorite place."

He Xin raised his lips slightly and said, "It seems that we are not the only ones here, there are also some uninvited guests."

Before Qiandao could understand what He Xin was saying, he saw several black figures flying out of the waveless water in the flat well, and instantly rushed towards Master Heron on the shore of the lake. Qiandao subconsciously rushed out.

"Help me!"

The black-clothed assassins are strong and strong, and there are traces of using Chakra. The daimyo guard in front of him must not be an opponent. Pay attention to the black-clothed assassins who are standing on the shore and flying high in front of his eyes. Jumping fish.

Several shurikens were shot at Xin Xin, but he was unmoved.

"Water escape! Water rushes!"

He clasped his hands together, and instantly summoned water that spun and rose rapidly like a tornado. After that, the water spread like a waterfall, and the lake in front of him seemed to have been turned upside down.

The powerful water wave impact made it difficult to stop the black-clad assassin in the air. Just like the fish in the river, life and death were naturally decided by the person who controlled the river. In an instant, they were all washed to the other side and became like dead fish.

He Xin picked up a kunai from the other party in the shape of a plum blossom in his hand. Then he came to the assassins and found that they were scarred and dead. However, the fatal part was not his water escape, the black venom at the corner of his mouth was the cause of death. .

"Dead soldiers? It's interesting." Liu Xin ignored the corpses for the time being and came to Lord Lu's sedan chair.

When the guards saw He Xin coming forward, they all drew their swords and said, "Don't come over!"

"Stop it! He is a Konoha ninja! He came to the Kingdom of Birds to help us solve the ghost case!" Qiandao's guard warned loudly beside the sedan.

The guards were also at a loss for a moment, looking at Lord Lu in the sedan chair, and the voice of Lord Lu came from behind the curtain, "Qiandao, who told you to meddle in other people's business, the Kingdom of Birds will handle the affairs of the Kingdom of Birds! "

"But Master Meng Zong also has good intentions. Master Lu, it's too hard for you alone," Qiandao explained.

"Enough!" Lord Lu interrupted severely.
