Naruto Caged Bird

Chapter 130: Deception

It is impossible for civilians to exceed the speed of the White Fang commando. Even if Hatake Sakumo deliberately let go of the residents of the Land of the Wind who had become "poor" to report to Sand Nin, the White Fang commando is still in Sand Ninja at this time. Shinobu got the message and made it to the second target before taking action—

A desert oasis inhabited by nearly ten thousand people!

The scientific and technological power of the entire ninja world is abnormally distorted. While it has wonderful short-distance intercom communication, it has not had long-distance communication capabilities for many years. The important reason for this is that just any ninja can easily destroy the signal base station necessary for long-distance communication. After being repeatedly destroyed several times, it naturally caused the split application of short-distance and long-distance technology in the ninja world!

Therefore, the news of the invasion of the Kingdom of Wind has obviously not reached this oasis town which is still loose and leisurely.

Rizai was lurking in the shadow of the sand dunes in a sand-yellow cloak. He observed the large oasis with his white eyes for several hours, but he didn't find any special defense and vigilance from Sand Shinobi. And rough statistics show that there are at least 10,000 people living here, among which there are at least a hundred people with the bodies of ninja chakra flowing.

The Hakuga commando led by Sakumo Hatake only had 29 members even including himself. Although he is the elite of the elite, if he wants to attack and destroy such a huge gathering of thousands of people, he can only wait for the silent defeat in the dark night. Otherwise, the scattered street fighting will cause huge losses to one's own side!

Night is always the background for the birth of conspiracies...

As the blazing sun set in the west, Lu Lu, a desert resident who returned late, came back one after another carrying his day's delivery. Although the desert country is not conducive to growing crops, it also has its own economy.

Of course, the food produced by the reclaimed land in the oasis is not enough for the people in the entire settlement. Therefore, most civilians will avoid the hot noon and go out to search for resources and wealth. Until the evening when I returned to the village, the things in the baskets were gradually turned into food and resources that could survive.

In order to avoid high temperature and drought, most mammals and reptiles also come out to forage after dusk. Even some large reptiles and large rodents only come out at night with green eyes. But for the original residents of the ninja world whose physical fitness is far superior to that of the earth, they are all flesh...

In addition to food, the ore in the desert is what the residents look for the most. A large number of Gobi areas exposed outside the sand are mostly areas where deep underground rock formations move and protrude. It's a pity that the world doesn't use oil very much, otherwise the land of winds...

The Land of Winds is also the place where the most minerals are unearthed besides the Land of Earth. In addition to being lucky in mining, you can even dig out diamonds, bloodstones and other rare gems that make you rich overnight!

"Why did you come back so late?" The guard on duty asked the villagers who came back late.

"Unfortunately, we encountered a sandstorm when we came back, and we were delayed for a few hours while hiding... But fortunately, things were not blown away by the sandstorm!" He finished complaining, and then shook A lot of sand was spilled from his own pannier. Inside Gu Longlong, there are many living creatures pierced with needles...

Guards are daimyo's troops in the land and towns. In addition to maintaining law and order and vigilance, of course they also have the right to collect taxes and fines part-time. Well, a role similar to urban management, who can control everything!

The three tired villagers handed over the goods to the guards on duty for counting, and they will draw a certain amount of them to maintain the construction and protection of the oasis.

This seems to be a very primitive way of social survival, but it is necessary for the residents of the Land of Winds who depend on the oasis for survival. The desert country does not have rich land resources. If the limited oasis is not controlled and expanded, it will inevitably cause chaos and plunder among more and more people.

When the limited resources are really unable to satisfy the overflowing population, the war to expand the territory by force on the grounds of "increasing the privilege of fairness" begins. Just like two villages fighting for water and fertile land, it has been staged for thousands of years.

Moreover, almost every war is triggered by that ninja village with unbalanced resources!

"A total of 73 catties of rough ore, you can go back to the village after paying a 20%* tax..."

"Isn't it only 10%*? Why did it go up again?" The villagers outside the town gate began to reason angrily.

"We are at a critical moment in the war with the Nation of Fire, and the enemy has already penetrated into the country's borders. Of course, raising taxes is a normal thing!"

The guard on duty also yelled loudly at the name of the village, which instantly attracted the attention of the other guards. The temperature drops to more than ten degrees at night, and it is very heart-warming to watch a little lively!

"Why didn't I see any traces of the enemy?"

"Hmph, you guys, you're already dead when you see it—"

The villagers and guards argued in the light of the bonfire in front of the town gate, until, until someone began to urge impatiently.

"Have you guys discussed it, hurry up at night...!"

In the fortress with earthen walls sheltered from the wind, Sand Ninja, who was finally impatient after observing for a long time, urged. During the war, in order to strengthen the defense of important towns, Daimyo of the Kaze Country and Sandai Kazekage also specially signed a mission agreement. Among the guards on duty, some sand ninjas were placed to protect the safety of the town.

"Okay, okay, come in with me..." After finishing speaking, the guard stiffly walked back with several village names.

The guard guarding the gate looked at the dawdling figure of the other party, and finally notified to open the gates of some Shalou.

"call-"

"It doesn't seem right?"

"What's wrong?"

"Why is that guy Matsumoto so talkative today?"

"It's not that those ninja masters are urging, it's inconvenient to get some oil and water!"

The guard named Matsumoto led the three villagers into the gate of the town, and then he continued to walk towards the castle. There are three sand ninjas in the team, one is the sand ninja who was urged just now, and the other two are taking turns to rest and sleep in the long night.

"Master Ninja, those villagers just found a good thing!"

"What, put it on the table."

Sand Ninja, who has been trained from missions, habitually guards against anyone who tries to touch him even if he is not in a combat state. He looked at the guard in front of him warily, and after repeated perceptions, he found that the guard was not transformed by the transformation technique, so he lowered his defenses.

A jewel, a veritable alexandrite...

It is so beautiful that it successfully attracted Sand Shinobi's gaze from the original vigilant observation to the light of the gemstone on the table, and it won't move away!

Sha Ren quickly glanced at the companions on both sides who hadn't changed, and then he quickly put away and squeezed vigorously, but it wasn't broken. After confirming that it was a gem with extremely high hardness, he immediately kicked it up, and then asked the flattering guard in front of him:

"Tell me, what is the purpose!"

"What a dare and purpose for a ninja! I just have a distant nephew who always wanted to be a noble ninja but never had the chance...so I want you to see it!"

Sand Ninja Village has always followed the strategy of being close to Konoha elite ninjas due to lack of resources. Later, the daimyo even had to cut down military expenditures and had to disarm. At this time, although it is not to the point of careful selection in the future, the qualification requirements for becoming a ninja are also very high.

And Matsumoto, who can become a town guard, is definitely greedy for money~www.readwn.com~ At this time, he seems to want to gradually upgrade his small family to a family with ninjas, so that at least he will receive less attention from the upper class exploit.

"Oops! Then bring it for me to see when you have time."

"Okay, he's been waiting outside for a long time...I'll let him in!" Immediately, Guard Matsumoto quickly turned around and stuck his head outside the door to call out to his nephew from afar—

"Day difference, come in!"

The voice was not loud, but still blatantly reassuring the ninja in front of him. If the other party sneaks around in this cold night, it will instead attract Sha Ren's inner guard at this time.

"A name that starts with a Japanese character? It seems to be rare!" He looked at the guard who was eagerly prepared, as if he was afraid that he would turn around and regret it. But the other party didn't know, whether or not he had the qualifications of a ninja was not up to him as a ninja?

However, in this war-torn era, it would be nice if we could really recommend a few qualified ninja students to the village...

"Luck!"

The concealed door opened from the outside, and the nephew of the Matsumoto guard walked into the castle building obediently.

He was wearing a shit-yellow turban that looked like Ebizo, and used it to wrap his hair. At this time, he was wearing the old windproof robes that desert people are used to wearing. At first glance, he seemed to think that his parents purposely made it bigger because of his growing body when he was young. Then the boy walked in with his head down, as if he was shy...

Sand Ninja still checked carefully and habitually, and there was no use of transformation to transform. He immediately let go of the guard in his heart, and then said to the timid boy:

"You look up and let me see!"

"Um-"

I've watched Romance of the Three Kingdoms too much, so cheat me and open the door! Originally, I wanted to write all the gatekeepers as sand ninja, but after thinking about it, I changed it because it didn't fit the national conditions at all! Except for the Five Great Ninja Villages, there would not be such a wealthy village.
