You Know Nothing About Pain
Page 174
Seeing Naruto's weird eyes, Taro understood what Naruto was really thinking, so he smiled and said, "There is only one pool inside, and a piece of cloth in the middle is considered to separate men and women."
The vegetables sold in the vegetable shop are also some vegetables that are about to rot, many of which can be clearly seen as leftovers that will be discarded in other vegetable markets in the future, such as carrot silk, lettuce leaves, and sweet potato silk, all of which are placed on the counter as vegetables The sales are big, and of course the price is very cheap.
There are also many vendors who set up stalls on the street, and most of their products are wild vegetables or wild fruits dug from outside the city.
The whole slum feels like a small city, a beggar version of the city outside.
Naruto even saw a pachinko shop with only two or three machines when he was walking. The number of machines in the shop was less, but it was no different from the outside.
The only thing that treats the slums equally is the casino, which is a bit ironic.
Naruto suddenly noticed that one of the people who set up the stall was a very old-looking old woman with a basket in her arms, looking anxiously at the passers-by in front of her, but didn't say anything.
Naruto stepped forward and said, "Grandma, what are you selling?"
Seeing Naruto approaching, the other party quickly lifted the rags on his basket, revealing the clams inside.
Most of the clams in the basket are very small and dilapidated, and they are basically things that passers-by would not even take a look at in the market outside. However, although the clams in the old woman's basket are broken, they are all very clean. It can be seen that the other party wants to sell them. I went out and worked hard to clean them one by one.
"Grandma, your clams look pretty good." Naruto said with a gentle smile, "Why cover them with a cloth, so that everyone will want to buy them when they see them."
However, as if the old woman on the opposite side didn't hear Naruto's words, she grabbed a handful of clams and was about to hand them to Naruto.
"She can't hear, and she can't speak." Taro's voice came from behind Naruto: "She should have been an ama when she was young, because she didn't have money to buy protective gear or see a doctor, and she became deaf after diving for too long. I have no family, and gradually I can’t even speak. When I was young, I could pick up some valuable oysters and sea urchins. Now when I’m old, I can only pick up broken clams that others don’t want. "
Naruto looked at the old woman who was stuffing a handful of clams into his arms, sighed and said nothing, and asked Taro about how much this box of clams was worth, and then took out the money and handed it to old woman.
Seeing Naruto wrapping her clams so boldly, the old woman was so happy that she didn't even want the basket. She took the money and hid it in her bosom, then walked away quickly, leaving Naruto standing alone with a basket of clams. in place.
"You can't really help her like this." Taro sighed and said, "Even if you give her a lot of money, if no one takes care of her, she will be killed and robbed the next day."
"Well, I know all of this." Naruto fiddled with the broken clams in the basket, took out a slightly intact clam and observed it in the sun, and said, "I just happen to want to eat clam soup."
There are poor people everywhere, and hard-working people everywhere. If Naruto helps everyone he meets, let alone his travels this time, even in his life, he probably won’t have to do anything else. The purpose of coming out is to be able to see a corner of this world clearly, and to know what the real world outside Konoha looks like. This is the really important issue.
Naruto saw that he was holding a basket, so he didn't go any further. This place was enough for him to observe carefully for a long time, so he handed Taro fifty taels to let him go outside to buy some cheap candies, and then hugged the basket Squat on the ground and watch the people selling and selling things around you.
Not long after Taro left, a figure suddenly approached Naruto quietly.
"Is this the first time for this big brother?" A female voice pretending to be charming with a little help but obviously working hard sounded in Naruto's ear: "Would you like to show you around?"
Naruto turned his head when he heard the voice, and saw a woman or girl in scantily-clad clothing that reached almost to his shoulders, looking at him awkwardly in a pose that he thought was sexy.Naruto couldn't help laughing when he saw the girl, sighed and shook his head and said, "Little girl, how old are you? Does your family know when you come out like this?"
"I'm not young." The girl tried to squeeze through the gap that didn't exist in her and said, "I'm already twenty-four."
"Twenty-four? I think it's fourteen, right?" Naruto slapped his forehead speechlessly and said, "You'd better go home quickly."
"Don't be so unfeeling, I'm not better than that uncle just now?" The girl still persevered, and with the skill she didn't know where she learned, she approached Naruto and put her arms around his shoulders, saying, "I'll show you around, the scenery of my house is amazing. Very nice~”
After all, the girl gave Naruto a wink, but the heavy makeup on her face that didn't match her age made the whole expression look very funny.
Naruto smelled the pungent smell of inferior perfume from the other party, frowned slightly and subconsciously wanted to push the other party away, but because he was afraid of hurting the little girl, he could only hold back forcibly.
"What's your name?" Naruto could only try not to touch the other person's body and said, "It sounds like you've been eyeing me for a long time?"
"My name is Meimei~" The girl said a name that sounded like nonsense, and wanted to lean on Naruto, but almost fell down several times, and finally gave up and said, "I charge very cheaply, only five thousand taels. And I haven't been touched by anyone yet, so you've made a lot of money."
"You..." Naruto frowned, forcibly resisting his desire to preach, looked at the girl with a half-smile and said, "Five thousand taels? You call it cheap, my basket of clams It's less than fifty taels, you're worth a hundred boxes?"
Seeing Naruto comparing herself with a basket of broken clams, the girl couldn't help raising her brows, and finally she forcibly endured it for the sake of money.
"Look at what you said, fifty taels and five thousand taels are about the same to you." The girl is doing her best: "I'm very skilled, although I don't have actual combat experience, but I have a lot of theoretical experience. "
"Okay, let's go play and buy some food with these things." Naruto took out a one hundred tael bill from his pocket and handed it to the girl, saying: "Don't do this next time, you can It’s not every time you meet a good person like me.”
Who would have thought that seeing Naruto directly hand out the money to send him away, the girl pursed her lips knowing that she would not be able to pay him today, snatched the money from Naruto's hand, snorted coldly and ran away.
"Isn't that Axia?" Taro just came back at this time, looked at the girl's back and said, "She came to see you just now?"
"It's nothing, I sent the little girl away after a few chats with her." Naruto said with a smile, "She also called me Meimei, but it turned out to be Axia."
"Well, she is also a hard-working person." Taro sighed and said: "There is a younger sister, and the father is a bad gambler, and beats her and her mother all day long. Although the bastard drank to death a few years ago, but Ah Xia’s mother has been lying on the hospital bed because of overwork.”
Naruto stayed in the slums for a while, then said goodbye to Taro, and returned to the hotel with a basket of clams.
"Longsheng, look what I brought back—" Naruto opened the door with a smile, and was stunned when he saw the scene in front of him.
I saw Nine Tails standing in the center of the room, Zhang Zhang with his hands and eyes slightly closed, not knowing what he was doing, and Chang Gu Longsheng standing by the wall with a look of lovelessness.
Kyuubi seemed to have noticed Naruto coming in at all, opened his eyes suddenly and said, "I said, let there be light!"
Snapped!
As Nine Tails spoke, Chang Gu Longsheng immediately pressed a row of switch keys on the side, and the lights in the room were turned on one by one, and the lights directly shrouded Nine Tails directly below in a very harmonious order, and even the speed at which each light was turned on was slow. It is a perfect fit, not missing a single bit, just like the most perfect lighting master on the stage.
The cooperation between the two sides was seamless, and even Kyuubi's position seemed to be very particular. The moment Kyuubi fully opened his hands, the light on the roof just wrapped Kyuubi, and there was even a special feeling in the movement. The beauty of the Nine Tails under the set off lights is like a god-man.
"I said... you two, what the hell are you doing?" Naruto looked at the two creatures in the room with black lines all over his head: "What are you playing with me here?"
"Master Naruto!" Chang Gu Longsheng immediately saw Naruto as if he had seen a savior, and even changed his name back to the previous Master Naruto: "I really can't take it anymore."
Naruto dodged the snotty and tearful Gu Longsheng in disgust, turned his head to look at the culprit Kyuubi and said, "What the hell are you doing, I warned you before I went out, right?"
"I strictly abide by your instructions and only move around in the room." Jiuwei sat lazily on the bed and said, "It's just that this kid is a little too weak, and he has to train such a simple thing for so long."
"Just for this, this guy keeps asking me to practice with him. If he makes a mistake, he will whip me. The most important thing is that it's fine if I make a mistake, but he still whips me when he makes a mistake." Chang Gulong gave a slap With snot and tears, he said, "I really can't take it anymore."
"This kid himself promised me, who told him he couldn't resist the temptation." Nine Tails sneered and said, "He really thinks my power is so good? How can there be such a cheap thing in the world."
"Can't you calm down a little?" Naruto sighed silently and said, "Forget it, I brought something back today, let's have clam soup today."
Naruto gave a whole box of clams to the innkeeper, and asked him to cook a pot of clam soup, and then gave it to him.
After eating the clam soup, Kyuubi clamored to go to the hot spring again, saying that Naruto had promised, and Naruto thought that if he didn't take him tonight, he wouldn't be able to calm down tonight, so he called Chang Gu Longsheng to go out together, and planned to find him at random. A hot spring bubble will do.
It was already evening when they left the hotel. The three of them left the hotel and walked to the hot spring hotel. It didn't take long before they found a nice looking hot spring hotel.
"Just here, it looks pretty good." Naruto turned his head to look at Kyuubi, and suddenly found that the other party was holding something in his hand, so he quickly asked, "Did you take other people's things indiscriminately? Return it quickly .”
"No, I just look at the ones pasted on the wall. The colors are pretty so I appreciate them." Nine Tails shook the cloth-like thing in his hand and said, "It seems that there are words written on it, why don't you take a look?"
When Naruto heard the words on it, his heart skipped a beat, he snatched the cloth from Kyuubi's hand, and saw that it was indeed an official announcement.
Just when Naruto was checking, a well-dressed man had already led a group of soldiers to find him.
"It's him!" One of the soldiers pointed at Kyuubi and said, "I saw him take down the notice with my own eyes!" "What's written on it?" Kyuubi seemed to have not seen the soldiers surrounded by it. , looked at the notice in Naruto's hand with great interest and said, "Tell me quickly."
"You...forget it." Naruto looked at the curious Kyuubi, and sighed helplessly.
There was nothing special written on the notice, it probably said that the city lord's daughter was kidnapped by thieves, and if anyone could rescue the city lord's daughter, he would immediately get a reward of [-] taels.
Just as Naruto and Kyuubi were explaining the contents of the notice, a man who looked like a butler who was the leader of the soldiers on the side had already stepped forward with a smile.
"You must be the brave man who took down the notice." The butler looked at Naruto with a smile on his face and said, "Please also invite your honored guest to come with me to see the Lord of the City."
Gu Longsheng, the leader behind Naruto, saw this situation and felt that it was time for him to perform, and his status in the team should be compared with this butler.
So Hase Longsheng cleared his throat and stepped forward, "Well...Actually, we didn't intentionally take down the notice, it's just that my friend was curious—"
However, before Chang Gu Longsheng could finish speaking, the butler on the opposite side suddenly changed color.
"What! How dare you make fun of the city lord!" The butler waved his hands with a livid face and said, "Come on! Send these lunatics who dare to tease the city lord into prison!"
Naruto was a little speechless looking at the soldiers who surrounded him with grim smiles. Who would have thought that it would be difficult to defend against house thieves by day and night, and in the end Kyuubi still made a moth for him.
However, there is no point in worrying about these now. It is definitely impossible to go to jail. He doesn't have that leisure time.
Naruto now has only two choices, one is to leave the city after making a fuss, and the other is to admit that he has indeed seen the words on the notice and is a hero who is going to rescue the daughter of the city lord.
Naruto has no intention of leaving here for the time being, so he can only go to meet the city lord first, and it happens to be able to see different things. For traveling, naturally he has to experience everything.
"Please wait a moment." Naruto looked at the steward beside him and said, "We didn't mean to tease the city lord."
However, the butler didn't listen to what Naruto was saying at all, and waved his hands in boredom and said, "Get rid of them quickly, it's a waste of my time, I'll see who dares to tease the city lord in the future."
Seeing the soldiers around him, Naruto knew that he had to do something, so he stepped slightly, and the chakra in his body suddenly retracted and released, and an invisible gust of wind suddenly appeared, blowing the surrounding soldiers tottering.
The butler looked at the soldiers lying in a circle around him, and just about to open his mouth to yell at the trash, when he suddenly realized that he seemed to be the only one facing Naruto directly, he was a little dumbfounded.
After calmly showing his hand, Naruto didn't continue to attack, but turned his head to look at the shivering butler and said with a smile: "My friend is wrong, we are indeed going to see the city lord, please Lead the way."
The butler was relieved when he heard Naruto's words. As long as there was nothing wrong with him, he didn't care about anything else. He put on a smiling face, nodded and said, "I'll show you the way!"
A group of three people followed the butler to the City Lord's Mansion. The City Lord's Mansion can be said to be very recognizable. The most luxurious and tallest building in the center of the city is
Going west along the east road and crossing two long streets towards the north gate, the three of them soon followed the butler to the gate of the city lord's mansion.
However, at the moment, the gate of the City Lord's Mansion is full of people, all of them are heroes and heroes who are coming to rescue the City Lord's daughter.
"so many people……"
Changgu Longsheng stood dumbfounded at the gate, a human-shaped long dragon stretched straight to the front under the plaque on the gate, before the painted red gate and the stone steps with two majestic stone carvings on the left and right, there were thirty or forty people. This kind of dress, bald, bearded, shirtless with large tattoos on their bodies, and even tattered beggars were also mixed in, and then they were thrown out.
"Get out, get out, those who beg for food outside our house all day want to sneak in."
The two retainers of the City Lord's Mansion patted the dust on their hands, walked back to the two sides of the gate and stood still, with their arms folded and their eyes inspecting the 'strange people' who came up for the list.
And in the long dragon below, many people also met familiar faces.
"Balang, aren't you a picky man, why are you here?"
"It's just a part-time job for me to pick dung, and my job is to be a chivalrous man. Otherwise, why do you think I have never encountered road robbery for so many years?! Hey...you are not the one who walks the street A peddler in the alley? Why are you here too?"
"...I walk around the streets, that is... that is to experience the warmth and coldness of the world. I am just a part-time job like you, and you see that the butchers in Nancheng are here, why can't I come."
The two chattering looked behind, and there was a fat figure like a mountain of meat standing in the middle of the line, with an apron around his waist and a butcher's knife stuck in his face. stare.
"What do you look at? I usually kill pigs and sheep. Whoever sees the knife technique will give a thumbs up and praise it. If you really want to wield it, then it's okay? Besides, if you don't get the two hundred thousand taels, twenty thousand taels are always worth it. Is there? Even if it’s [-] taels, you can’t mix it up, and you can always have a meal with food and drinks...."
Chang Gu Longsheng understood that each of these guys possessed unique skills.
The reward of [-] taels can be said to be rich and touching. Regardless of what they do on weekdays, as long as they have time to come, they basically want to put on a show, and most of them come here to eat and drink.
It's just that these people were basically stopped by the two retainers at the door. Although the city lord was in a hurry, he didn't accept all crooked melons and cracked dates inside.
Since Naruto and the three were brought here by the butler, they naturally didn't have to be like those guys at the door. The butler waved his hand and the retainers at the door quickly lowered their heads and opened the door to let the three of them in.
Naruto nodded politely at the retainer next to him, and was about to raise his leg to step into the door, when suddenly there was a shout from behind.
"Why don't we go in!"
I saw a few strong men in animal skins and pitchforks in their hands shouting: "We are also here to help, let us go in!"
The two retainers at the door waved their hands impatiently and said, "What are you doing? A group of peasants are here too?"
"Peasman?"
The leader raised his hand and scratched back, and pulled out the hunting knife tied behind his back. Sen Han swung the blade away, causing the two retainers on the opposite side to retreat in panic.
