"Take your cat to death!"

Muramatsu suddenly attacked, pulled out his katana, and between the lightning and fire, he appeared beside Taiyi, and slashed it over, and Taiyi was obviously not weak, he flashed away quickly, taking this opportunity Lujiu pulled out kunai to take over the blow, and the two quickly separated after a short contact.

Lu Jiu shook his hand, and the fight just now made his hand a little numb.

"Thunder Chakra, what an aggressive ninja. ”

Konoe Muramatsu over there was not easy either, and looked at Lu Jiu fixedly.

"When I saw you for the first time, I was still strange, and I always felt very familiar, until I saw the restless shadow under your feet, I didn't know that it was the famous Nara Shikaku, and the pig deer butterfly is a great combination. I almost fell on the road.

Isn't it a bit of a stretch to protect this kind of fool with your identity, but soon the third prince will succeed to the throne as a daimyo, and then this kind of guy will be a rebel, what will you choose then? Or can I understand that you represent the attitude of Konoha Village?"

The deer remained unmoved for a long time.

"Please don't say that, we have no intention of interfering in your internal affairs, but it is our duty to complete the mission as ninjas, and the task we have received is only to safely send His Excellency Taiichi Yagami to the country of Wang. As for his identity, it does not affect our determination to complete the task. ”

"Oh? That's non-negotiable. In that case......

Before he could finish speaking, Konoe Muramatsu plunged his knife into the ground, and the electric light spread around the blade, spreading along his feet in the direction of Shikahisa.

"Hide !!"

Lu Jiu and the others reacted quickly, their feet off the ground, and dodged the attack of Lei Dun. However, the other ordinary guests in the hotel were not so lucky, and they were scorched black after being affected by this terrifying ninjutsu.

"Ahh!!h

After all, Qingyang and the others are just shinobi, this kind of scene is the first time they have seen it, and they have also realized the cruelty of the ninja world for the first time. Among the three, Qingyang was the first to react, throwing out a few shurikens with his backhand, and Sogo and Teko then began to fight back.

"Dingdingding......"

Muramatsu waved the knife in his hand repeatedly, and all the shuriken fell to the ground.

"A few imps who have just graduated from ninja school dare to make a move?

The three of them responded to him with a more violent attack, and Shikaku finally showed his true skills.

"Ninjutsu, Shadow Stitching. ”

The slender shadow launched a flexible attack, like a sea of dragons and snakes that had broken free, and attacked Konoe Muramatsu overwhelmingly, and the complex indoor environment allowed Shikaku's shadow to have a larger attack range. Coupled with the cooperation of Qingyang's several people, the attack of the guards was restricted.

"It seems that there is no room for negotiation between us, so be prepared to lose your lives. We'll see you again. ”

Although he was at a disadvantage, he couldn't leave the guard, and he retreated with such a sentence. This made Lu Jiu's face solemn.

The guard left, and not long after he left, Shikaku and his party also left here. They knew they had been exposed, and they would definitely be attacked more intensely right there.

……

"Your Excellency, I'm sorry for our suspicions about you, but now it can be proven that this is indeed an important high-level task. But before we proceed to escort you, please be honest with us everything you know. ”

Shikaku looked solemnly at Taiichi Yagami, who was concerned to see if the white cat Meownosuke had been injured in the previous attack. For Lu Jiu's question, he chose to be silent.

"Hey!! what kind of attitude do you have?!"

Sogo was very dissatisfied and questioned him angrily.

"Okay!Sogo, we're just in charge of escorting him back home, and the rest has nothing to do with us!"

Eko stopped him from the side, but her words also revealed her dissatisfaction.

……

It was night, everyone was asleep, but Lu Jiu was there to keep vigil. Looking at the flickering bonfire, Shikaku fell into deep thought.

"Teacher ......"

"Hey, you little devil, I knew you weren't sleeping, now I'm sure you're on your stomach. ”

Qingyang did it, his face full of thoughts.

"If you have anything to say, just say it. They won't wake up now. ”

"Yes, teacher. Actually, I've always been weird.

First of all, from the words called Konoe Muramatsu, it can be known that Wang Zhiguo is now undergoing a change in the situation of the old and the new, and the third son, one of the heirs, is obviously why he wants to hunt down Taiyi's guard.

Then, Taiyi's Excellency obviously knew that he was being hunted down, which could be inferred from the fact that he did not react unexpectedly when he saw the guards.

Then it can be concluded that His Excellency Taiyi must be a person who has the ability to influence the succession of the third prince to the daimyo.

So what is it? From the information we have, first, His Excellency Taiyi does not have a decisive appeal in the kingdom of Wang. Second: His Excellency Taiyi does not have the strength to fight an entire nation. Third: What is the current daimyo doing? Is it really as he said, without Meow no Suke, there would be no fighting spirit?"

Lu Jiu shook his head, thought carefully and replied.

"Impossible, this reason is not valid at all, as far as I know, although the Chengping Daimyo of Wang Zhiguo is not a wise and martial artist, he is also a qualified monarch. Moreover, he has never been heard of having a special fetish. ”

"Or is it really as he said, the key is Meow no Suke? But it's impossible, even if Meow no Suke is a ninja cat, it will definitely not change the fate of a country......

Lu Jiugo nodded in agreement.

"So...... There can only be one conclusion. ”

The master and apprentice glanced at each other.

"Taiyi didn't tell the truth......"

Both of them came to this conclusion at the same time. Lu Jiu smiled with relief, very satisfied with the growth of this student.

"Yes, Taiyi must have some reason why he can't tell us the truth, and even that he doesn't trust us very much, but what is the reason...... We can only wait and see what happens. ”

Lu Jiu sighed, and finally could only regretfully stop the analysis.

The night was very deep, Taiyi slept very soundly, and he didn't know anything about the words of the two, but Lu Jiu and Qingyang obviously ignored one thing.

……

The next day, several people were on the road again, and with the previous incident, all five of them became very alert, but the enemy never launched any decent attacks, but only did not listen to the temptation, and encountered many enemy tracking and prying eyes along the way.

In this way, after five days of relative safety, after many detours and sneaking, five people and one cat finally came to the territory of Wang Zhiguo. Five miles further on the road is the castle of the Daimyo.

"Your Excellency, further on is the Daimyo Castle of your country, according to your mission, we can count it as completing the mission as long as we send you here. ”

Although the task has been "completed", Lu Jiu's expression is not relaxed. On the contrary, Taiichi Yagami had an indifferent face.

"Yes, Lord Shikahisa, thank you for escorting me all the way. Thanks a lot, the task has been completed, and the next road can go down alone. ”

Seeing him like this, a disappointment that could not be concealed appeared on Lu Jiu's face.

"You still won't share the truth of the matter with me, maybe we can help, after all, the stability of your country is important to Konoha. ”

"No need, thank you very much for your kindness, but Taiyi's path can only be walked by Taiyi himself. Thank you again for your protection, and thank you to several young ninjas as well. Your future will surely be more exciting than Taiyi. ”

After saying this, Yagami Taiichi had no nostalgia, turned around and walked towards the royal city with Meow no Suke.

Looking at his distant back, Sogo and Eko's feelings are complicated. They still don't like this guy until now. Stubborn, stubborn, and even stupid, but that doesn't affect their respect for him.

After a few days, they were all blown away by him. Knowing that the road ahead is so dangerous, but still going on, with an absurd and ridiculous reason, they are burdened with a heaviness that they can't understand.

"Teacher, we ......"

Sogo said in a low voice.

"Returning to the Village ......"

"What?"

Sogo was a little incredulous.

"We don't have a reason to stay, do we?"

The three were silent.

The four men turned around and began to return the way they came, but they really ...... Really, it's just a lack of a reason.
