Xingliu and the others rode on Nanabi together, crossing the vast land at an astonishing speed, and soon arrived in front of a quiet town.

Originally, they planned to land directly in the town, which was convenient and fast.

But at this time, Nono carefully reminded:

"Nanabi's appearance may be too eye-catching. We'd better get off at a distance from the town and walk in."

Xingliu also thought it made sense. Although he could ignore other people's comments, he didn't need to cause unnecessary trouble because of his actions.

So he nodded and signaled Nanabi to stop at a distance from the town.

After receiving the order, Nanabi slowly lowered its altitude and finally landed smoothly in a hidden forest.

Xingliu and the others jumped off Nanabi's back, patted its huge body, and then walked towards the town.

After they left, Chongming kept looking at Zhili's back, and turned into smoke and disappeared when he could no longer see their figures.

As soon as she entered the town, Tsunade rushed in with great interest, expecting to see a different scene from Konoha.

However, the scene in front of her made her feel a little disappointed.

The streets of the town were narrow and deserted, the buildings on both sides looked dilapidated, there were few pedestrians on the road, and the streets and alleys lacked vitality.

Tsunade looked around and found that it was not as lively and prosperous as she imagined, but instead exuded a depressed and dull atmosphere.

Tsunade frowned. She thought she could see a wider world and experience more customs and customs in this mission, but the town in front of her made her feel a little depressed.

Xingliu looked around and showed a surprised expression on his face.

He really couldn't understand why this town not far from Konoha was so depressed.

According to common sense, the security of a place so close to Konoha should not be too bad.

Moreover, due to the ability shown by Konoha in the last Chunin Exam, many people from all over the world will come to entrust tasks, which will also drive the economic development of the surrounding areas.

Therefore, this town should be quite prosperous and vibrant in theory.

However, the scene in front of him was very different from Xingliu's expectations.

This made Xingliu very confused, and he didn't know what happened here.

He didn't understand, and the three women naturally didn't understand.

Zhiliu looked at Xingliu, and a glimmer of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

She was also full of curiosity and yearning for the outside world, but the scene in front of her made her feel a little frustrated.

She couldn't help but ask: "Xingliu, is the outside world like this?"

Xingliu was silent for a while after hearing this.

He knew that the three women grew up in Konoha since they were young, and they didn't know much about the outside world.

Moreover, Tsunade and Zhili, as princesses and granddaughters in the family, had a vague concept of money. They couldn't say that they didn't lack money, but they were not interested in money.

Only Nono might understand this situation, but she hadn't experienced too much wind and rain.

After thinking for a while, Xingliu decided to tell the truth.

Although he was with them on this journey, they would also face many unknown situations and difficulties.

If they are not prepared now, it may be even more difficult for them to accept it.

So, he slowly said: "The situation here may be good."

Hearing him say this, Tsunade and the others showed unbelievable faces.

But then he changed the subject:

"But the situation here is also wrong."

He told the girls his analysis just now.

Seeing that they were thoughtful, Xingliu added:

"This is also the face of our Konoha. It is not good to leave it alone. Why not go in and investigate first."

Xingliu said, and took the lead to step forward.

The three girls followed closely, and the group walked slowly on the streets of the town.

The streets of the town were deserted and desolate, and the buildings on both sides were dilapidated, as if they had gone through a long time.

There were few pedestrians, and occasionally a few people hurried by, and they looked expressionless.

Xingliu observed the surrounding environment while walking.

He noticed that most of the shops in the town were closed, with doors and windows closed.

Tsunade and the others, led by Xingliu, also carefully observed the surrounding environment.

They gradually discovered that there was something wrong with this town.

Not only were there few people on the streets, but the buildings and shops were also lifeless.

After walking for a while, the group came to a hotel.

Xingliu looked at the door of the hotel and found a shabby sign hanging on it with the words "Welcome" written on it.

He pushed the door open and walked in, the three women followed in.

As soon as he entered the door, Xingliu realized that the shabby sign outside might be the newest thing in this hotel.

The interior of the hotel was dim and old, as if it had gone through countless years.

The mottled marks on the walls and the shabby decorations all revealed a sense of depression and decay.

However, unlike the shabby appearance, the environment inside the hotel was unexpectedly clean.

Just then, an old lady with a kind face came over.

"Welcome, are you staying in the hotel?"

Xingliu looked at the three women and nodded slightly.

It was still early, and they could have continued to move forward for a distance.

But since they had decided to investigate the situation in this town in depth, it would obviously be a wiser choice to stay here for a while.

Moreover, the appearance of this old lady also provided them with a good starting point for the investigation.

"Okay, please prepare a few rooms for us." Xingliu responded politely.

The old lady nodded and turned to lead the way.

As they followed the old lady into the hotel, Xingliu keenly caught a flash of strangeness on her face.

He asked tentatively: "What happened here? Why is it so desolate?"

This question seemed to touch a nerve of the old lady.

She suddenly stopped, turned around, and stared at Xingliu and others.

When they noticed the hideous expression and angry eyes on her face, they were all a little surprised.

The old lady stared at them fiercely, as if to confirm their identities.

When she noticed the Konoha forehead guards worn by Xingliu and others, her anger broke out instantly.

"Go, go, go! Konoha ninjas are not welcome here!"

Her voice was full of hostility and dissatisfaction, as if she had a deep grudge with Konoha.

Xingliu was stunned by the old lady's fierce reaction, but he quickly regained his composure.

He looked at the old lady deeply, and then slowly said:

"I'm sorry, we don't mean any harm. We just want to know what happened here and see if we can help."

Hearing this, the old lady's expression eased a little.

She stared at Xing Liu for a while, then sighed and said:

"You should leave, things here are not your business."
