Shadow of the Wood

Chapter 250

Many days have passed since Shikamaru's rebellion against the village. Whether it is Yunyin, Wuyin, or Konoha, it will not stop because of this. The life of the villagers is still going on. A fight that happened in a foreign country, after all Can't form enough impact on them, at most add some talk to the usual chat.

Few people in the village believe that Shikamaru rebelled against Konoha Village willingly, because Shikamaru killed Yunnin, which made Yunyin Village persistently question Muye Village and Wuyin Village. The spread was raging, and the villagers in Muye Village with a little connection could find out the general story of the incident, not to mention the three young Zhongnin, Rixiang Ningci, Li Luoke and Younv Shino, who witnessed the incident. He never deliberately concealed it, and even now, although some people still have doubts about Shikamaru's betrayal of the village, no one would say that Shikamaru is the second Orochimaru.

Sarutobi Asma once felt that Shikamaru was very similar to Orochimaru in some respects, but this refers to the attitude towards "jutsu", the fanaticism and vigor towards knowledge make people ashamed and frightened, But in other aspects, Shikamaru is quite different from Orochimaru.

The simplest point is the attitude in dealing with people. Compared with the aloof and indifferent Orochimaru, Shikamaru has a good reputation since the ninja school. Whether it is a classmate or a teacher, Shikamaru in their memory, most of the time With a humble and gentle smile, he is approachable and has great talent. Even now, some teachers of Ninja School still like to use Shikamaru, who has already won many honors shortly after graduation, as a positive teaching material to educate students.

Not to mention the students and their families who were listening to Shikamaru not long ago. These children who respect Shikamaru from the bottom of their hearts are at the age of worshiping heroes. The mission, to betray the village as a last resort" is a group of people who believe in this version of the rumor, just like them, are young ninjas who have participated in the Chunin exam that ended not long ago.

Even veterans who have participated in many Chunin exams still feel that the topic of "sacrifice" in Shikamaru's proctored written test is the most depressing and heavy word among previous written test examiners. They believe that they can come up with this The person who took the exam has enough consciousness.

The three who touched the most should be Rixiang Ningji, Li Luoke and Yume Shino. They witnessed the incident almost from beginning to end-after encountering diplomatic difficulties, Shikamaru made a suggestion, and after being refuted Made up his mind again... Jiraiya once sighed on the way home and said that he "saw a great ninja." Although he didn't name the person, the three teenagers still agreed that this was saying Shikamaru, they also agreed with Jiraiya's statement.

No matter what the people in the village think, no one can obliterate Shikamaru's role in this incident. He killed all members of Guang Yunyin's team by himself, and killed most of the Wuyin Village team. Ninja was not spared, and even the famous knife "Pingmu Plaice" was taken away, which can be said to be famous in the ninja world. The reason why Wuyin Village and Yunyin Village had conflicts was also caused by his killing, so that Muye Village no longer needed to worry about it. A formidable enemy.

There are quite a few people who can see things clearly. This is why Shikamaru has never worried that his rebellion against the village will cause too much negative impact on his image. Common people are not ignorant, but human beings as group animals have a more or less herd effect , as long as the truth is displayed in front of them, and they are not distorted and concealed, they fully understand how to think, not to mention that most of the villagers in Muye Village are related to ninjas, and they are often more knowledgeable than ordinary people. More, more understanding of the mysteries of some things.

Some people are amazed by Shikamaru's ability, some people admire Shikamaru's possible mission, but some people feel sad and lost their souls because of Shikamaru's leaving the village. <Yakura was fiddling with the flowers in the vase, and looked at Ino Yamanaka from time to time. The two were working in the flower shop of Ino's house, carrying flowers. In a floral apron, her long pale golden hair was tied into a ponytail hanging down to her waist, and a few strands of long hair broke free from the leather rope reluctantly, and after being stained with a little sweat, they lightly stuck to Ino's cheeks and rose up with her face. The blushes together added a bit of caress to her, but there was even more worry in Ye Ying's eyes. <Yo Sakura finally couldn't keep silent anymore, she put down the tool in her hand, and whispered the name of her friend: "We are best friends, when Sasuke left, you were always by my side...so I beg you, If you have something on your mind, you must tell me, okay?" <Yakura said nonchalantly, "You worry too much, Sakura!"

<Yakura was talking, but Yamanaka Ino suddenly interrupted: "Shikamaru is not a traitor to the village!" You are still out of your mind all day long, and now your attitude has changed so much, I am very worried about you!"

"What are you worried about me? Don't you want me to wash my face with tears all day long? Am I not what you want to see now?" Ino turned around, turned his back to Ye Yingyu and hesitated to speak. After a moment of hesitation, he finally said He made up his mind and said: "Tian Tian told me yesterday that you recently bought a lot of ninja tools... and now you don't have any tasks. What do you want to do?"

"...I am a ninja, so I will always use these things." Inoto said without looking back. <Yakura’s words made Ino Yamanaka froze, but then she smiled and said in a nonchalant tone: “What are you talking about, Sakura?” <Yakura was not fooled by Ino Yamanaka’s lame performance at all, she understood very well Ino's thoughts at this time, when Uchiha Sasuke left the village, she also thought about going away with him. She knew her friend's feelings for Shikamaru, and she had no doubt that Ino would take the same action as she did at that time. <Yakura pulled Yamanaka Ino's body towards her, and said in a deep voice: "Tell me the truth, don't lie to me!" <Yakura's hands frowned slightly: "I thought you would understand me!" <Yo Ying was anxious and angry. Ino's words meant she agreed with her guess. She didn't dare to question loudly, so she could only lower her voice and say, "The two of them have completely different temperaments!" But he was sober, racking his brains to find a reason to dispel Ino's thoughts: "Oshemaru... Sasuke is looking for Orochimaru. He is not in danger for now, and the village hasn't issued a warrant for him yet. Shikamaru is now It's betrayal..." <Yo Sakura's expression was agitated, her eyes filled with steam, and she choked up, "Sakura, you protected Sasuke during the Chunin exam, but I never did anything for Shikamaru. I just want to be there with him like before."

"Every time Shikamaru is lost in thought, I look at him, as if time stands still, and everything around him doesn't matter..., that feeling is very good, I always feel safe and peaceful by his side," said Yamanaka Ino Wiping the tears that flowed quietly from the corners of his eyes, he said softly: "I believe that even if he is what people call 'betrayal' now, this feeling will not change. I know what I did was wrong, and I can't help him. Busy..., I just can't bear this feeling, I'm afraid that if I'm not by his side all the time, he will forget me in the end..." <Yakura sighed, embraced Yamanaka Ino who was constantly sobbing, and comforted her in a low voice : "But even if you leave now, you won't be able to find Shikamaru!"

"But it's better than I can't do anything now!" Ino whimpered. <There was a flash of struggle in Ye Ying's eyes, but she caressed her friend's thin shoulders, and finally became firm, and said: "...I will accompany you to find him, okay?"

Outside the flower shop, Ri Xiang Hinata left quietly with a gloomy expression.

Where is Shikamaru now?

…………

There are many mountains in the land of thunder, with strange peaks soaring into the clouds, and thunder echoes all year round, deafening, and the name of the country comes from this.

This country has Yunyin Village, one of the five great ninja villages, to maintain local security, and there are many hot springs located in various places. Although there are not many resources, they are also considered tourist attractions.

It’s just that Shikamaru came here, of course, not to bathe in the hot springs. Yunyin Village is a well-known martial arts faction. Raikage has been known for his tough diplomacy in the past. There are few foreign ninjas even in the territory. Because they like to eat alone, they are extremely repelled by foreign competitors. In contrast, they are common ninjas in the territory who wear the forehead of Yunyin Village.

boom!

Shikamaru stomped heavily on the Adam's apple of a Yunin, and there was a crisp bone breaking sound, and that Yunin also fell to the ground with white eyes and struggled endlessly.

In this empty woods, there are six cloud ninjas lying here and there. The only one who can stand is Shikamaru who is wearing a black service kimono, carrying a knife tightly wrapped in a bandage, and has long hair loosely draped over his shoulders. Besides, there was only one pale young Yunin left.

"'Deer God Hidden' is really well-deserved..." After Shikamaru killed the remaining cloud ninjas, he stopped talking, but the young cloud ninjas still retreated subconsciously, licking the dry skin. From his lips, he let out a nervous laugh that he didn't even know the meaning of, and he threatened with a guilty conscience: "What are you trying to do? Don't forget that this is the Land of Thunder!"

Shikamaru sneered in his heart, not to mention the things he committed in the country of water, and now there are six cloud ninjas killed by him in this woods, this threat proves that the fear and panic of cloud ninja are not in vain leave him alone.

"How to get to Yunlei Gorge?" Shikamaru asked suddenly.

Yun Nin was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, and subconsciously asked, "What?"

Shikamaru smiled, raised his right hand, and the black shadows formed by spiritual energy seemed to be solid, waving in the air endlessly, like a demon with teeth and claws.

"Let me ask you, how do you get to Yunlei Gorge?" Shikamaru's gentle smile was reflected in Yun Nin's eyes, but it looked ferocious.
