Open Treasure Chest Through Konoha

"..."

Bai Mingyu looked at it for a while, shook his head, gave up the idea of ​​pushing the door to enter the room, and was about to turn around and leave, when the little boy in the room stood up with an empty bowl, as if he was about to come out to wash, when suddenly he saw Bai Mingyu standing outside the window , Startled, the porcelain bowl in his hand fell to the ground and shattered with a bang.

"Gudong..."

The little boy swallowed a mouthful of saliva, shrank his body back, and showed a scared expression on his face.

The woman on the bed also noticed Bai Mingyu, moved her body with some difficulty, and said in a hoarse voice: "Excuse me, are you..."

At this time, Bai Mingyu could only smile, and briefly explained his reason for coming.

Speaking of which, the little boy didn't steal much money from Quan. When he saw the situation at the little boy's house, Bai Mingyu didn't intend to ask for it anymore, but after the woman heard what happened, her face was full of blood. With an angry expression on his face, he yelled at the little boy a few words, then sat up on the bed with all his strength, and said apologetically:

"I'm really sorry, it's me, a mother, who didn't educate my children well and caused you trouble... Huayi, hurry up and return the things you stole to this gentleman!"

"The floral dress?"

Is this little boy's name?

Sounds a bit weird...

Bai Mingyu glanced at the little boy standing aside with his head bowed, his face full of grievances, and said casually, "I'll accept the apology first, but I don't have to return the wallet, anyway, there's not much money in it... Anyway, Auntie Take a good rest first, and I won't bother you for now."

Without waiting for the woman to respond, Bai Mingyu turned to leave.

Just as she turned around, the woman saw the ninja bag behind Bai Mingyu, her eyes changed slightly, and then she asked in a panic, "Well, may I ask, are you... a ninja too?"

"Ok?"

Bai Mingyu paused: "Also?"

"Have you seen other ninjas before?"

But Bai Mingyu remembers it very clearly. He also said before that there is no ninja village in the country of ghosts. The supreme ruler of the whole country is the legendary "witch". It stands to reason that in such a small town, There should be no more ninja haunts.When he was on the street before, Bai Mingyu also observed it once. The vendors and pedestrians on the road are basically ordinary people.

As soon as the words came out, the woman seemed to consciously slip up.

The expression on his face hesitated for a while, perhaps because he felt that Bai Mingyu was young and did not look like a bad person, so he said softly: "Yes, not long ago, another group of ninjas came to this town , They also wear ninja bags like you, and they dress up very differently from ordinary people... But those ninjas are not very friendly to the people in the village, and they seem to be planning to do some bad things, I thought you were with them too..."

When she said this, the woman didn't seem to catch her breath, she coughed heavily while clutching her chest, and her complexion became worse than before.

The little boy next to him didn't care about being scolded by his mother just now, so he hurried over and patted the woman's back lightly, with a worried expression on his face.

Bai Mingyu didn't continue to walk out, his curiosity was aroused.

After waiting for a while, seeing the woman's face softened and her breathing became smoother, he looked at her face and asked cautiously: "Sorry, I still want to ask, what do you mean by what you just said?" ?It sounds like a lot of ninjas passed through this town not long ago?"

……

ten minutes later.

From the intermittent words of the woman, Bai Mingyu learned the general course of the matter:

About a month ago, a group of foreign ninjas came to the country of ghosts and stayed in this town for a few days. At that time, the woman's condition was not as serious as it is now. When she went to the pharmacy in the town to get medicine, she saw When I arrived at some of the ninjas, I overheard their conversation. This group of ninjas seemed to have some kind of plan for the kingdom of ghosts, and wanted to achieve their ulterior ambitions by awakening something.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

The woman spoke vaguely.

After all, she was just an ordinary person, and she just met those ninjas once by chance, and heard a few fragments of words from them, and the specific meaning of the words may not even be clear to her.So Bai Mingyu was also confused.I just know about it. Not long ago, a group of foreign ninjas visited the Kingdom of Ghosts, and they seemed to have some ulterior motives.

As for the others, it is not so clear.

"This should have nothing to do with our actions..."

Bai Mingyu secretly speculated in his heart.

This time he followed Jiraiya to the land of ghosts, the purpose was only to find Tsunade and treat Junmaro's blood-inherited disease, and he didn't care much about other things.Even if a group of ninjas with malicious intentions come here, as long as there is no direct conflict between the two sides, there is no need to pay too much attention to it.

At that moment, Bai Mingyu looked at the woman's sallow face, thanked her, and stood up.

Glancing at the little boy next to him, he smiled, and said lightly: "Did you steal the wallet just to treat your mother? Although it is understandable, I advise you not to do it again. Not everyone People are as easy-talking as we are.”

After a pause, Bai Mingyu asked casually again: "By the way, I heard that your ghost country is holding a festival recently. Is there anything special about this?"

Bai Mingyu has seen a similar event before, that is, during the Moon Festival, a grand gathering was held in Konoha Village.Now, the activities held in the villages and towns of the ghost country are generally similar to the Konoha Gathering, but because of the different customs in different places, there may be some special rules and traditions.

Bai Mingyu just asked casually.

The little boy pursed his lips, looked at his mother timidly, and then replied in a low voice: "The festival held in this town is to thank Lord Miko for allowing us to live a peaceful and peaceful life. Pray to the gods and pray for good weather in the coming year..."

When the little guy spoke, there was a bit of grievance in his voice.

It sounded a bit high-pitched, a very immature voice unique to children.

Bai Mingyu leaned over slightly, stared at him carefully for a few times, and when his eyes fell on the little boy's throat, he was slightly taken aback, and then laughed dumbly: "This little guy... is actually a girl?"

The little boy was thin and yellow, his hair was not long, and his face was covered with soot or other dirty things. In addition, when he was stealing things before, he moved with quick hands and feet, which made Bai Mingyu subconsciously look at him. Zuo is a little boy, but after careful observation now, I found that this little guy has a pointed chin, a pair of clear eyes, and no Adam's apple in his throat, he is clearly a little girl.

No wonder it is called Hua Yi with such a feminine name...

Thoughts flashed through my mind.

Bai Mingyu didn't think too much, and soon noticed another thing Huayi said: "Witch?"

Hua Yi nodded.

"You should...not be a citizen of our country?"

The one who spoke was the woman lying on the bed. She took a long breath and said slowly:

"Our kingdom of ghosts is different from other countries around us. It was established under the protection of the witch. According to legend, more than a hundred years ago, this place was once occupied by a vicious monster. The monster Entrenched here, constantly killing and devouring human beings, at the critical moment, a mistress stood up and killed the monsters with her powerful spiritual power, so that people survived, and in this place that was once ravaged by monsters, The present kingdom of ghosts was established. And the descendants of that witch-sama became the leaders of the kingdom of ghosts, guarding the land we live in from generation to generation.”

"Witches, monsters?"

Bai Mingyu frowned, feeling vaguely unreal in his heart.

Naruto World... and these things?

But if you think about it, it's not impossible.

After all, even the real gods like the God of Death who can take away life are real, and in this world, there are such things as souls and the underworld—the place where the Immortals of the Six Paths stay after death is similar to the legendary Hades hell.Another monster or something is not unacceptable.

Moreover, many legends are conjectures made by humans, or many exaggerated elements have been added to the original facts. Maybe this so-called monster is actually a very powerful psychic beast.

Not to mention anything else, giants like Wentai or Wanshe are almost equivalent to vicious monsters in the eyes of ordinary people.

Not to mention there are tail beasts...

And the witch may also possess secret arts, similar to those powerful ninjas.

Thinking of this, Bai Mingyu breathed a sigh of relief, and said following the woman's words: "It seems that Mrs. Miko must be a very powerful person."

"Yes, if there is no Miko-sama, the kingdom of ghosts will not exist at all."

There is reverence in the woman's words.

It seems that the position of Miko-sama in their hearts is no less than that of the daimyos of the Five Great Nations in the hearts of the people of all countries.

Bai Mingyu exchanged a few words of greeting, did not stay any longer, greeted the mother and daughter, then turned and left.

Under the signal of the woman, the little girl Huayi sent Bai Mingyu to the door. When she walked out of the courtyard, Huayi seemed to hesitate for a moment, and suddenly said: "The group of ninjas, they want to revive that monster."

"what?"

Bai Mingyu stopped in surprise, but Huayi didn't intend to continue. After saying that, she looked at him dodgingly, turned around and ran into the house.

"..."

Shaking his head, Bai Mingyu turned around and walked in the direction he came and went.

Compared with Luofeng City, this town is much smaller. There are only two or three hotels in the town, and they are very close to each other. Bai Mingyu found Quan and Junmalu without much effort.During the time he left just now, Quan had already booked a room at the hotel and was packing his luggage.

Seeing Bai Mingyu's return, the black-haired girl had a joyful expression on her face.

"Bai Yu-jun, are you alright?"

"No."

Bai Mingyu shook his head, and briefly recounted the information he heard from the woman. Quan digested it silently for a while, got up and opened the window, took a breath of the clear air outside, turned around and said with a smile: "Don't think so much Alright, Mr. Bai Yu, let's go out for a walk too, it's rare to encounter such a grand festival, I just heard from the hotel owner that this kind of event will only be held once a year."

"That's good... what about Junmaro?"

"Junma Lu's situation is much better now, let's be careful, and nothing will happen."

Bai Mingyu followed the direction of Quan's finger and looked at the young lady who was sitting on the other side. Compared with two days ago, the young lady looked much better, at least there was no problem getting out of bed and walking.It seems that the blood-inherited disease of the corpse bone meridian may be periodic. After all, it is the first time for Jun Malu to have an attack, and the condition is not very serious. As long as the ability of the corpse bone vein is not used, there should be no serious problems.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Soon, Bai Mingyu and Izumi cleaned up briefly, and left the hotel with Junmalu.

Go back to the street just now.

The festival activities in the small town are really lively.

Compared with the gathering in Muye Village, the population of this town is obviously much smaller, and most of the venues for activities are concentrated on a few main roads in the town, but there are not many tricks at all, except for some There are only special snacks, and there are many shops for fishing for goldfish and water polo.

Bai Mingyu took Quan and Junmalu and walked slowly along the street.

Like Quan said, such opportunities are rare.

In the past, when he was staying in Konoha Anbe, Bai Mingyu often had to perform some out-of-the-village missions. Even when he returned to the village occasionally, he was often busy practicing and developing ninjutsu.Although Izumi spent more time in the village, due to the duties of the Konoha Guard and the situation of the Uchiha clan in the village, she was often unable to escape.

But now, in this foreign country far away from Konoha, I have a rare opportunity to relax.

Every time they came to a shop, several people had to stop for a while.

When you encounter a stall selling food, buy a little bit. If it is a shop for fishing for goldfish, just squat down and play for a while.

It took nearly an hour before they crossed this street. Both Bai Mingyu and Quan had several packs of snacks from different stalls in their arms. The girl had a few strings of wind chimes on her wrists, with a smile on her face, and the wind chimes followed suit. The movement of walking makes a tinkling and melodious sound, and Jun Malu behind is also holding an exaggerated mask, playing with it curiously.

Only at this time, they look no different from ordinary people.

"Go ahead and sit down."

Bai Mingyu raised his head, and saw a few wooden tables in front of a tea shop not far away, with a big umbrella set up next to the wooden table, a few passers-by who looked like a family of four walked there, stopped, and sat Resting on the stool, the owner of the tea shop next to him quickly delivered a pot of tea.
