Chapter 67: Ambush
In the twilight, Mingyu stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the swamp shrouded in thick clouds under the cliff, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, the task of traveling thousands of miles west had been completed, and now he could finally set foot on the way home.

I don't know exactly how long it has been, but it's been at least a month since half of the food in the mirror world has been consumed.
He took out his map and looked at it, this place was in the southeast of the Nether Country, and beyond that was the boundless desert of the Land of Winds. If you want to go back to Konoha, you need to go around the mountains and head northwest, and then take a shortcut to the country of spoons.
Mingyu pondered for a moment and decided to pay a visit to the Katsu Shrine on the outskirts of Kyoto in the country of Yugo before going back.
This Kutsu Sankashi was originally a sacred relic of the Tsu Shrine, although it has been lost and belongs to the ownerless, but after all, the origin is very deep, and he has received the generous help of Mr. Shin, since he has found it, no matter what, he must say hello before going back, and express his gratitude.
Of course, it's best that the other party doesn't think about anything else.
The decision has been made, and Mingyu takes the road to the west.
A few miles away, on a mountain peak, there was a stone platform, on which the gravel was neatly arranged in a circle, and a layer of white talismans was paved in the circle.
Suddenly, as if blown by the wind, the talisman flew up, then burned out of thin air, and the ashes fell on the stone platform, forming a figure.
Ryu Dou next to him stood up suddenly, ran to the edge of the cliff, and saw a small figure on the peak coming down the mountain, and shouted excitedly: "I didn't expect this kid to really find a holy relic!"
Hui Tai behind him also ran over, took a closer look, and said in surprise: "Great!"
He observed for a while and said, "Look in his direction, it seems to be going back to the shrine." ā
Ryuto smiled: "Why don't we rob the goods halfway?" This is a long-lost holy relic, if the two of us take it back, it will definitely be a great achievement." ā
Hui Tai frowned and said: "No, since he can survive unharmed for a month in the Youming Cliff, which is known as the Jedi, and can still find the Kongjin Three-Day Star, it can be seen that the strength is extremely strong, we can't startle the snake, it's better to be safe." After he arrives at the shrine, he will be deployed by Mr. Priest, so he won't be able to take him. ā
Ryudou looked at him, smiled, and said, "Okay, then we have to go back quickly, this kid is very fast, we can't let him rush to the front of us." ā
The figures of the two disappeared.
The night was dark, and Ryuto and Keita were not ninjas after all, and after a few hours of driving, they were extremely tired, so they rested in a small town along the way.
In the middle of the night, Keita opened his eyes, got up and went outside Ryuto's room to listen, there was a loud snoring inside, he smiled at the corner of his mouth, returned to the room, lightly packed his things, and left the hotel.
After a while, Ryuto, who was still snoring, followed out, far behind Keita.
Both of them are high-ranking palace secretaries in the shrine, and they are expected to take over the position of the god lord, and whoever can retrieve the shrine's lost holy relic, the "Kutsu Sanri Star", is undoubtedly a miracle and will be able to compete for the first place in the competition.
Therefore, the two looked like they were separated, and Hui Tai wanted to get rid of Ryudou and swallow it by herself. Ryudou is rough on the surface, but he is not stupid, he will do what he wants, and he is the idea of taking advantage of the fisherman.
To get to Kyoto, the Tosui Bridge is the only way to go, and Keita hides in the withered grass under the bridge, and Ryuto in the distance stops in the woods, and the two of them each make their own small calculations, waiting for the arrival of their goals.
Perhaps due to the influence of the desert climate of the Land of Winds, winter here comes late, it is already October, and the night is only slightly cool, the moonlight flows like water on both banks, and the evening wind blows the withered grass up and down.
Stepping on the frost-white moonlight, a figure in white clothes and black pants appeared on the road, Huita raised his head slightly, looked at it, and was happy in his heart, the person who came was the little imp Konoha he had been waiting for for a long time, Uchiha Mingyu.
Mingyu was getting closer and closer, and he silently calculated his steps in his heart.
When Mingyu stepped on the stone bridge, Huitai suddenly stretched out his hand, and more than a dozen talismans connected by straw ropes and written in black and white flew out one after another, attacking Mingyu.
Mingyu was unconscious, and was easily entangled by the talisman.
Huitai was overjoyed, jumped up, and the black pestle in his hand lay across Mingyu's head.
Mingyu frowned and looked at the talisman draped on his body, and found that he couldn't move, and then looked at the black pestle across his head, this thing looks extremely heavy, if it is dropped, it is estimated that he can smash his head into a pulp, so he frowned and said: "You are the Imperial Household Division in the shrine, right? Why did you sneak attack me?"
He actually knew the reason, but he still wanted the other party to say it in person.
Keita smiled smugly and said, "No other, because you took the holy relics of our shrine, as a member of the shrine, I have the obligation to recover the holy relics." If you hand it over obediently, I will teach you a lesson, and I will let you go, if not, I will smash it down, and I am afraid that you will have your head broken and bleed, and you will die young!"
He was naturally proud, he thought that he could come back alive from Youming Cliff, what great ability he had, so he had been worried in his heart, but he didn't expect such a pus, it was simply vulnerable, and it was effortless.
It seems that the Youming Cliff that was blown into the sky by the old man of the god lord is nothing to be afraid of, and if he knew this, he went down to find it himself.
Mingyu frowned and said: "The Kongjin Three-Day Star is already an ownerless thing, I have worked hard to risk my life to find it, since it has recognized me as the master, it has nothing to do with your Wujin Shrine." ā
Hui Tai raised her head slightly and laughed, "The little ghost is really articulate, but he doesn't seem to recognize reality. Now don't talk about the three days of Kongjin, even your life is in my hands, whether it is round or flat is all in my heart, do you still want to take advantage of your tongue?"
"Oh, I'm afraid it's you who can't recognize reality, right?" Mingyu smiled slightly.
"Hmph, I don't know if I'm alive or dead!" Hui Tai snorted coldly, and the pestle was raised to smash down, but just as it was about to fall, it suddenly stopped, and it was horizontal in the air.
Because he found that his neck didn't know when it was against a kunai.
With a "bang", Mingyu in front of him disappeared into a puff of smoke, but the real Mingyu appeared behind him.
"Did the Divine Lord send you?" Mingyu said with a squint.
This guy obviously knows his whereabouts and seems to have been following him from the beginning.
Hui Tai gritted his teeth, and the long pestle was unexpectedly pushed back, and at the same time, his body rushed forward desperately, Mingyu blocked the long pestle, and Kunai shot straight into the back of his heart.
The distance was so close, Ming Yu thought that he would definitely hit, but he didn't expect that the white talisman that flew up from the ground turned into a purple flame of light, and it actually blocked Kunwu.
Taking this opportunity, Hui Tai distanced herself.
Mingyu raised his eyebrows and said, "Your technique is a bit interesting." ā
Keita sneered, "The real fun is yet to come!" (To be continued.) )
