Chapter 449: Return to the Ancient City of Loulan
The first thing Sakura Haruno did when she returned to Konoha was to tell her parents and everyone that she was safe.
- After all, they had all been scared of it before.
In the Hokage's office, Sakura Haruno also learned about the recent events with Sasuke from Tsunade by the way.
The incident is not very complicated, but the reasons behind the outbreak of conflict are more intertwined.
In general, it is the consequence of the remnants of the Uchiha's extermination that cannot be dealt with.
Although on the bright side, the village has thrown all the blame on Uchiha Itachi, covering up the fact that Uchiha and the village once suspected each other and broke up, acting as if Konoha had always trusted Uchiha, this was the case in the past, and it will be the same in the future.
Then I hope that Sasuke trusts the village as well.
With only two Uchiha left, and Uchiha Itachi taking the initiative to carry the black cauldron, there is no unbreakable knot between Konoha and Sasuke.
But apparently Sasuke was aware of the problem - in fact, long ago, after Sakura Haruno accompanied him to the Cat Clan's warehouse, Sasuke was vaguely aware that the Uchiha had the intention to rebel against the village.
After that, Sasuke didn't dig any deeper.
In fact, it was the cowardice in his heart that made him dare not delve deeper.
I'm afraid I'll see something that will change his mind.
I'm afraid that in the real story, the Uchiha are a stupid and incompetent race who trample their glory in muddy water.
In fact, Tsunade doesn't care how much Sasuke knows, from a political point of view, even if we know some things, we can pretend to be confused, pretend not to know to do this, hello, I'm good, everyone is good.
It's rare to be confused, that's what I'm talking about.
After listening to Tsunade's story, Sakura Haruno felt a little regretful in her heart.
Her reply to Sasuke at the time was only three lines, and it probably didn't help Sasuke much.
However, this kind of thing is not something that can help Sasuke change his mind with just a letter. In Haruno Sakura's opinion, the reason why Sasuke is entangled in family affairs is nothing more than because his vision is too narrow, the pattern is too small, and in the words of this world, it is a lack of "instrumentality".
To put it mildly, the ninjas of other countries, many of them are dead, their families are ruined, and the citizens of those miserable small countries are wandering, starving and cold, and there are countless people struggling on the line of life and death, and even the powerful and rich country of fire has a large number of people living miserably at the bottom - who can sympathize with the tired bones of the peasants in the parasitic disease epidemic area?
That's how the world is fucked up.
In terms of tragic fate, Sasuke may not even be on the list, so why be hypocritical? Live well and cherish the current life is the last word.
Of course, if Sakura Haruno can analyze the various classes of the fire country society Konoha ninja movement investigation report, why can Konoha have the red will of Konoha exist?
But the concubine can't do it!
Besides, Sakura Haruno has both parents and has not experienced these pains, so how can she accuse Sasuke of being hypocritical when his parents and people were all slaughtered? Where did she come from to condescendingly judge Sasuke's qualifications?
As soon as she thought of this, Sakura Haruno couldn't help but sigh.
What could she do about it?
Walking out of the Hokage's office, Sakura Haruno, full of thoughts, turned directly to the Shadow Building and found Sasuke, who was sparring with Hinata.
Speaking of which, the relationship between Sasuke and Hinata has always been very flat, at most they are nodding friends, although Sasuke and Hinata are both close friends of Sakura Haruno.
Probably because I was taught not to make friends with white/red-eyed people from a young age.
The relationship between the two pupil families, not to mention that water and fire are incompatible, is also the degree of old age and death.
However, this time, after adding countless shifts together in the dark department, the two of them, who have become panda eyes together, have become acquainted.
Sakura Haruno had a little accident.
After a while, Hinata saw that Sakura had something to do with Sasuke, so she left first.
The training ground was suddenly empty, and there were only two teenagers and girls left, which was a good place for conversation.
Sakura Haruno blinked and hesitated for a moment.
"Sakura-chan" Sasuke asked, looking at Sakura Haruno's appearance, "Do you have something to say to me?"
"If it was before, there is no need to say it, it has passed. ”
He saw Sakura's intention and said calmly.
"Actually, it's nothing. Sakura Haruno smiled apologetically and took two steps away, "I was thinking, the letter I replied to you earlier was only three lines. I seem to be a little too careless. ”
"There's no backlash, is it?"
She asked cautiously.
I see. Sasuke smiled faintly and immediately said, "Of course not! Actually, you said it very well, every sentence is on my question, thank you." ”
He paused, waved his hand, and said, "Okay, what about not talking about these things? ”
"Is it over?"
Sakura Haruno looked at Sasuke's face steadily, his expression was light, and his black eyes looked back at the girl quietly, the peace in his eyes didn't seem to be fake, as if he really didn't care about it anymore.
She groaned for a few seconds.
"Well, that's fine. The girl smiled quietly, "Then Sasuke, how about taking you to a place?"
"It's good to be a distraction. ”
Or is it to broaden your horizons, see the market, and improve the pattern?
A few days later.
The Land of the Wind.
Following the same path that Sakura Haruno once walked, the two soon crossed the border of the Land of Fire, and the scenery along the way gradually transitioned from forests and grasslands to barren plains, and finally to the barren Gobi.
Sand Ninja Village is not far from Konoha , only three days away, and the destination of Haruno Sakura's trip is near the middle of the connection between Sand Ninja Village and Konoha , plus the two people who are in a hurry are extremely fast ninjas, so they did not consume too much time, in just two days, they crossed a distance of more than a thousand kilometers and rushed to the ruins of an ancient city.
It was late afternoon when we arrived, and the sun had just taken its last rays of light.
The dim sky was rapidly darkening, and the ruins of the ancient city were even darker under the faint light.
"Here we are. ”
Sakura Haruno paused, calmed down her heaving chest, and said lightly.
As she spoke, the girl jumped lightly to the top of a ruined building, and looked down with a little nostalgia.
Coming up here was exactly a year ago.
A year has not brought any changes to this lonely ruin, the ruins of the ancient building are still decayed and weathered, only the wind, sand and dust accumulated in the corners seem to be a little higher. The cold wind whistled and blew, stirring up a strange roar in the ruins of the ancient city, as if nocturnal ghosts appeared, adding a bit of eerie horror to the barren ruins.
Night had fallen.
The full moon hung high above the starry sky, shedding a bright moonlight and casting a mysterious silver veil over the ruins at night.
She hadn't been here since the last time she had planescrossed here.
Sakura Haruno has always had a strong curiosity about this mysterious place, and now, she finally has the opportunity to experience it again.
This time, she's going to try to travel through the past with Sasuke
She silently looked at the scene in front of her and fell silent for a moment.
"Sakura-chan, what is this place?"
Sasuke quickly jumped up and stood beside Sakura and asked.
"The ruins of Loulan. ”
The girl smiled mysteriously.
The first update
The chapter of the previous chapter said that it was almost dirty in the sky, and I didn't think about it in those directions when I wrote it, you guys are enough!
