Chapter 9: A chill from behind
The sky was just a little brighter, and Yue Huaai and the other four got up early, carrying heavy bags and embarking on the road to find the three ninjas. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
As everyone walked away, the village, which was still vaguely shrouded in the morning light, completely disappeared from the eyes of the teenagers. Yuehua Ai and Xiao Nan walked side by side at the end, and there was no special feeling before leaving, but after walking such a long way and entering the deserted suburbs, when the village disappeared into the distant horizon, Yuehua still couldn't help but feel a trace of melancholy in her love.
"If you leave, you may never come back!" Yuehua thought silently in her love. After all, living in that nameless town for so long, it would be a lie to say that there is no emotion at all. Life in that small village and town is the real so-called peaceful life that Yuehuaai has lived since her rebirth, although it is still difficult, but it is no longer precarious.
Although it was only half a year, for Yuehuaai, who had been on the run by the old man for a long time, it was the first time he had stayed in the same place for so long, and it was the first time he had a place of his own. Although he only lived outside the village, although he didn't even have a simple house, in that gloomy cave, he also felt a kind of home warmth, because there were Nagato, Yahiko, and Konan.
Xiao Nan noticed Yuehuaai's sadness, but he didn't say anything, just stretched out his arm and grabbed Yuehuaai's slightly cold little hand into his hand.
Yuehua Ai raised her head and faced Xiao Nan with an encouraging smile, although the smile was beautiful and warm, but the deep loss and confusion in the other party's eyes still couldn't escape his eyes after all.
That's right, when it comes to the emotion of this land, Xiaonan, who has lived here for a longer time, has more right to speak. It's just that the war and displacement have made the mentality of the teenagers more precocious, and they are more accustomed to hiding their sadness and weakness and bearing it alone.
Just like Yahiko who walked at the front of the team, he would not look back, and he would not dare to look back, after making the decision to pursue the three shinobi, he would have to take on the responsibility of leading the three of them together, any weak emotions will be an obstacle on the road, in this country that has been crying, weak people will eventually become bones on the side of the road.
Yuehuaai restrained her emotions for a moment, he scratched Xiao Nan's palm, and showed a bright smile to her.
Yuehua Ai has never been a sentimental person, and the reason why he is sad is only because of the gloomy weather and continuous drizzle, when everyone is silently hurrying, it is really easy to hook people's hearts.
With the continuous rush in the next few days, the small emotions that were diffused at the beginning of the team have also disappeared, and the teenagers are still more full of longing for a better future, for this, Yuehua Ai really has to admire Yahiko's optimism.
On the seventh day of their journey, they succeeded in discovering the second battlefield by following the established route.
This battlefield was completely different from the one they had discovered two days ago, where it had been a jungle area where skirmishes had erupted, leaving only a messy forest, but now in front of the teenagers was a large battlefield where the fighting was so fierce that it destroyed the city.
A huge city ruin sits on this rare plain in front of you, and the original smooth and wide streets are littered with the remains of rubble and brick buildings, and the buildings that once stood here have also been destroyed, and as far as the eye can see, there are traces of explosions everywhere, and burn marks everywhere.
If it was placed before the war, this would definitely be a prosperous city, but unfortunately, the war affected and the villagers moved, and at this time, this place was already a silent ghost domain.
Yuehua Ai looked at this battlefield in shock, those dilapidated tall buildings, and the reinforced concrete that could be seen in the ruins, which made him suddenly feel like he had returned to his previous life. Indeed, because of the special geographical environment of the country of Sichuan, the construction of those large cities in its territory is made of reinforced concrete, which also leads to many similarities between the architectural style here and the city where Yuehua Ai lived in his previous life, so this made him instantly feel stunned.
Everyone searched in some relatively intact buildings, but not to mention food, not even some major daily necessities were found, seeing this situation, Yahiko frowned and analyzed: "There is nothing left, it seems that before the outbreak of the war, all the people here have been transferred." ”
For Yahiko's words, Yuehua Ai nodded approvingly, in fact, thinking about it, thinking about it, thinking about this kind of large city, there must not be many in the country of Sichuan.
Such a major city is not like ordinary towns and villages with a small population, and it is likely that the leaders here were informed before the outbreak of war and could have time to organize the relocation of citizens, and only then would there be a lack of food and necessities in these dilapidated buildings.
"There's no one left, what are we going to do next?" asked Yahiko.
Yahiko scratched his head and sighed, there was nothing to be found until now, there was no one in the city, although it represented safety to a certain extent, but for them, this was definitely not good news, because after a week, not to mention finding the traces of the three Konoha ninjas, by now, the dry food they were carrying was almost exhausted.
"Let's find a place to rest first, and then we'll expand the scope of our search a little more in the afternoon, I don't believe that we can't find anything in such a big city."
Nagato and Konan nodded, now they can only do this.
Yahiko thought of a good shelter from the rain that he had found earlier, and led everyone to shuttle through the ruins to find it. The speed of everyone's action has never been slow, and Yuehuaai is still hanging tightly behind Xiao Nan as usual, but at this time, Yuehuaai is frowning, muttering secretly in her heart, is it an illusion?
In fact, not long after entering this ruin, Yuehua Ai suddenly had a strange feeling, in his subconscious, he felt several times that there seemed to be a pair of cold eyes behind everyone looking at them, and the malicious gaze made him look like a man. But every time he looked back, the cold feeling would disappear in an instant.
At first, Yue Huaai thought that it might be his hallucination, but after repeating this a few times, he was sure that the group of them had been targeted by something, and this ruin was by no means as empty as they had detected, and now, they were likely to become prey in the eyes of the other party.
