Konoha: This ninja is suspicious by nature

Chapter 316
There is a sandy canyon on the north slope of the mountain behind Sunagakure Village. You can leave Sunagakure Village by crossing this canyon.

Normally there would be Sunagakure guards stationed on this important road, but today there was no one there. Even if there weren't many people here like Kankuro said, there shouldn't be no one at all.

He Xin was holding a black ruler in his hand, dragging his exhausted body and stumbling along. As soon as he entered the mouth of the canyon, he smelled the fresh smell of blood.

The blood on his face formed scars, sticking to his flesh. The wind and sand blew through him, causing a tearing pain. The skin all over his body was as hot as if it had just been soaked in magma, and the bones above and below were so crispy. It will fall apart in the next second.

Hearing his feet fell to the sandy ground, and the second before he closed his eyelids, he felt a little guilty when he saw the expression on Little Crocodile's face that was so nervous that he was crying.

"Little Treasure, be careful there are people in front of you." When fainted and dying, Xin murmured.

"Beep. Beep."

The crocodile Xiaobao licked Xinxin's face in a panic, and tugged at his clothes vigorously.

A few pieces of gravel fell on the canyon wall. Crocodile Xiaobao's eyes flashed and he immediately became alert, and his whole body tensed up.

A girl with blue-green hair, with butterfly and insect-like wings on her waist, flew down from the cliff above the canyon.

The girl is Fu from Taki Ninja Village.

"Beep. Beep!" Little Crocodile made a warning sound.

At the same time, another backlit figure walked out of the depths of the canyon. When he got closer, he saw that it was Samyi. There was still fresh blood on the short knife in her hand.

Samyi's eyes trembled when he saw the fainted He Xin, and he raised his head to look at Fu flying in the air, with murderous intent evident.

"You were the one who killed He Xin, right?" Fu frowned, "I don't allow you to take action against my friends!"

Samyi twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, thinking to himself that this silly girl seemed a little confused about the situation.

"I know you, you are Fu from Taki Ninja Village, right?" Samyi asked coldly, "He is your friend?"

"Of course! Even though we just met him a day ago! But he saved my life." Funu opened her mouth and said, her current meaning seemed to be, do you dare to touch my friend?

Sam Yi smiled and said, "If you don't want him to die, you'd better take him away first."

Then ignoring Fu's hesitant and worried expression, Samyi walked up to Zhanxin and said the same words to Crocodile Xiaobao again.

Crocodile Xiaobao took two steps back, his guarded expression unabated, but seeing that He Xin was in a state where he didn't know whether he was alive or dead, he had no choice but to let Samyi carry He Xin on his back, while he followed closely behind him.

Seeing Samyi leaving with Henzhen on his back, Fu thought about it for a while and decided to follow.

Hinata, Shino, and Kiba's three-person team were already good at tracking, and Kiba had been undergoing special training in this area some time ago. Soon they tracked the scent of Heihan to the sandy canyon north of Sunagakure Village.

"Woof woof woof!" Akamaru shouted towards a patch of sand.

Ya squatted down and touched the sand and said, "Hexin has been here before! Stayed for a while!"

Hinata immediately opened her eyes to see through the entire canyon, "All the guards here are dead."

Shino walked towards the body of the nearby guard and released the bugs to inspect the body. He put his hands in his pockets and looked solemn, "Killed with one knife. The small wound should be caused by a short knife, it doesn't look like a careful method."

Although Hinata was extremely worried, she also understood that worry could not solve anything. She analyzed and said: "Kankuro said that Hein was seriously injured and should not be able to deal with the guards here. So who could it be? Is it an enemy or a friend?" It's not Sayin's person, nor ours, so who could it be?" Shino thought about it.

Akamaru barked, indicating that I smelled the crocodile brother. It seemed to be safe and sound. After listening, Yafu'er's eyes lit up and he analyzed: "Akamaru said that the little crocodile that was paying attention seems to be fine. Can we infer that the person who killed the Sunagakure guard is here?" Save the careful one? Otherwise, the little crocodile will definitely fight to the death to protect you!"

"It makes sense." Shino nodded.

Hinata's nose felt sore when she heard this, and she tried not to let the emotions rush into her eyes. She had never felt so powerless.

"Hinata, I think nothing will happen if you pay attention." Shino comforted, "On the contrary, the follow-up matters will be a bit difficult."

"As long as he's okay." Hinata just hoped that he would be safe and sound.

The three of them continued to pursue the scent through the canyon. Outside the canyon was the vast desert, and there was no scent under the endless wind and sand.

"It stands to reason that no matter how strong the wind and sand are, it's impossible to completely disappear the breath?" Ya asked suspiciously.

"Ache~~" Akamaru sneezed.

Shino frowned and released the little bug to fumble around the exit of the canyon.

"It's insect powder!" Shino picked up his sunglasses and said, "Tooth, do you still remember that we were allergic to Akamaru in the Demon Desert?"

Kiba thought carefully, recalling the chase battle with the ninjas of Kusakakure Village during the exam in the Demonic Desert. Akamaru's sense of smell was widened and he accidentally smelled unknown insect powder, which caused allergies.

"It's Fu from Taki Ninja Village!" Shino guessed. Before the third chunin exam, they knew the information about each potential opponent. Fu is a ninja who is good at using insect secrets. As an insect expert, Shino is even more sensitive. .

"Ningji once said that Hein saved Gaara and Fu in the Demon Desert." Hinata also agreed with Shino's guess.

"The aura near the exit of the canyon has obviously been covered up, and it seems that Fu has never been seen in the prison ruins before." Yaya nodded.

"Shino, Kiba, can you not tell others this news?" Hinata begged.

Ya chuckled and said, "Hinata, not only you, but also Hanan is a very important companion to us."

Akamaru barked and said he would never tell anyone else!
Zhi Nao also nodded in agreement, but he didn't express another doubt in his heart, that is, there is no insect powder smell from Fu in the canyon, and there may be another person who killed the guard of Shayin.

Although they lost the aura of attention at the exit of the canyon, they speculated that they had made a new discovery, which was Fu's insect powder. Hinata and the others continued to follow the scent of the insect powder, and along the way they also concealed Fu's too deliberately. Eliminate it and make sure only your own people know about it.

After Hinata and the others left the Sand Canyon, another group of people came here, three people from Kumogakure Village.

Aziyi inspected the corpse of the Sunagakure guard in the canyon, his brows twisted and twisted. As Samyi's biological brother, how could he not recognize that this was his sister's sword technique!
Omoyi on the side was biting a lollipop and shaking his head. He didn't know if he was remembering a certain story about Britney in their village.

Karui, who had been reminded by Omoyi before, found it hard to believe that Samyi's disappearance had nothing to do with the incident that happened in Zhenzhuan. She couldn't understand why the calm and cold Samyi would become like this!

"What should I do?" Karui asked softly.

"It's difficult." Omoyi put his head in his hands and looked at the sky helplessly.
