Chapter 19: Unpredictable Forms
"Officially appoint Uchiha Ling as the guardian shinobi of the Temple of Fire, and go to the Temple of Fire to carry out the secret mission issued by Lord Hokage!"
At Ling's home, Lie looked at the scroll in Ling's hand and read out the contents.
"Why such a sudden appointment? What the hell is going on? Looking at Ling lightly rolling up the scroll and receiving it into the ninja bag, he asked in surprise.
"I'm also sudden." Looking at Lie, Ling's eyes fluttered, "It's just an appointment from Teacher Ape Fei, so I have to obey." ”
"But"
"Nothing." Interrupting Lie's words, Ling turned around and walked towards his room.
"There's still some stuff to pack," the voice fell, and his back disappeared around the corner of the stairs.
"Ling" listened to the dull sound of wood from his brother stepping on the stairs, and he stopped talking, a feeling called powerlessness tightly wrapped around him.
"Lie, don't think about it, I'm fine." At the corner of the stairs where there was no figure in sight, Ling's voice came.
Lie was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then smiled, "I know, because you are Ling!" ”
The flat tone was overflowing with expectation and trust, and in Lie's heart, nothing could stump Ling.
"Take care of yourself." The voice came again, and the person was gone
Ling's departure caused a wave in Konoha Village, and everyone was speculating about the reason why he was sent to the Temple of Fire by the three generations of Hokage, after all, there are many outstanding ninjas in Konoha Village, and it seems that there is no reason to let the strongest genius of the Uchiha clan carry it out in this kind of matter, and the top leaders of the Uchiha clan are also more opposed to Ling leaving the village temporarily, but Ling is still a ninja of Konoha in the final analysis, and he can only obey the tasks assigned by the Hokage! They didn't know about the conflict between Ling and Danzo, and they didn't know the intentions of the three generations of Hokage to do this.
The development of the situation is delicate, and the Uchiha clan suspects that this is a conspiracy by the Konoha higher-ups to lure Ling outside the village and kill him secretly! Tuan Zang and the other elders knew that the three generations of Hokage were really angry this time, and if they really did something out of the ordinary, the result would not be something they could control and accept!
"I advised you not to be too reckless, look at the current result!"
In the secret club at the root of Konoha, Mito Menyan blamed Tuan Zang in a deep voice, and Koharu on the side also looked worried. Because of this incident, they seem to have touched the bottom line of three generations, so that their former teammates always have a cold face in their usual contact.
The three generations are contradictory people, knowing the darkness of Konoha's internal politics, and at the same time trying their best to reject these dark filths in their hearts, because the defection of the Great Snake Pill has broken their hearts for three generations, and now they see Ling who is like the Great Snake Pill when he was a child, and the double emotional outburst makes the three generations unable to sit back and watch Ling being hurt and polluted by this darkness!
"I didn't expect such a big reaction from Sarutobi" Tuan Zang sighed lowly, and then became puzzled, "It's only been two or three months since Sarufei accepted Uchiha Ling as a disciple, why would he attach so much importance to Uchiha Ling?!" ”
"Maybe it's that suppressed feelings that have exploded again." Zhuan Xiaochun lowered his head, and said with a slight regret in his voice: "Uchiha Ling is too much like the former Orochimaru"
As soon as the voice fell, the three of them fell silent, they all understood the hard work that Sarufei had invested in Orochimaru, in the hearts of the three generations, Uchiha Ling seemed to have become one with Orochimaru, and for Sarufei, who had great expectations for his disciples, he would not sit idly by and watch Ling be hurt by them in that mood, they didn't understand the kind of master-apprentice relationship like father and son, Ling didn't understand, but the three generations cherished it incomparably.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little dull, he turned to Xiaochun to change the topic: "It's okay for the kid to leave temporarily, at least the matter has a result that everyone can accept." ”
Mito Menyan closed his eyes and sighed lightly when he heard this: "Fortunately, the result is not bad, although I don't know why he concealed the truth that the Uchiha clan was injured, but fortunately, it didn't cause a big change!" ”
Itachi and Shisui's ambush has already made the Uchiha clan secretly suspect that it was the Konoha high-level who moved their hands and feet, if they knew that Ling's injury was also because of the elder's actions, then I don't know how much anger it would arouse!
"This kid is not simple!" Tuan Zang stared, his tone was slightly unwilling, "He made the most correct choice!" Judging from that political perspective alone, he is indeed worthy of being a person valued by Sarutobi, but unfortunately he is from the Uchiha clan! ”
Just when these three people were suspicious and admired, another group of dangerous ninjas were also discussing Uchiha Ling.
A small but steel-clad village, with many large and small steel pipes rising upwards in a bizarre style, a few men dressed in red cloud robes on a black background discussing something on a huge tower that almost reaches into the clouds.
"Having received the information that Jedi had brought, the Uchiha Ling left the village."
It was a cold and beautiful girl who spoke. Amber eyes, smooth skin as white as porcelain, light blue green silk, and a chic white paper flower inserted in the sideburns, the combination of one qiē and one qiē makes people feel weird, but it is so natural.
"Heh, it seems that the high-level of Konoha can't accommodate him anymore." A man with a swirling mask on his face chuckled, and although he was smiling, his tone was a little nostalgia and pity in addition to gloating.
"So, are you going to contact the Uchiha Ling now?" Sitting on the edge of the tower, a young man with orange hair turned his back to the two of them and spoke lightly.
"Not in a hurry, he is not yet able to work for "Xiao". The masked man shook his head.
"Tell me your plan." After a moment of silence, the orange-haired figure stood up slightly, turned around, and looked at the masked man who had spoken.
The emaciated and fair face, the perfectly sculpted features, and the delicate femininity of a girl, and the studded black metal studs on the bridge of the nose and ears, however, these strange ornaments did not spoil the man's extreme beauty, but made the man exude an indescribable evil aura and seductive charm.
The "Payne" girl looked at him and said a special name.
"His strength is not enough." The masked man looked at the man named Payne and said lightly, "Although the use of the Writing Wheel Eye is excellent, we will have to face a dangerous human pillar force in the future, and with Uchiha Ling's current ability, it can't help us much." ”
"Kaleidoscope Sharing," Payne muttered with his eyes closed.
"That's right." The masked man nodded, and then said with some expectation but also full of malice: "He has that talent, and he also has that condition." ”
"It's boring and nasty." The girl shook her head slightly, her ice-blue hair swaying, "Not everyone wants the power of the curse. The tone was cold and sarcastic.
"Perhaps." Completely indifferent to the girl's tone, the masked male voice playfully, "But there are some things that he can't choose." ”
"Humph!" The girl was stunned when she heard this, and then turned her face away and snorted secretly.
Payne looked at the girl, then at the masked man, his eyes were flat and gloomy, "Whatever your plan is, do your best." We don't have much time left. ”
"Of course." The masked man nodded at Payne, one of his exposed eyes narrowed slightly, and three rounds of magatama appeared in his blood-red pupils
"I'm looking forward to this kid too."
As soon as the words fell, the entire space began to distort and rotate, and the figure was also sucked into the exposed pupils in the mask, and disappeared.
"It's really worrying." The masked man had just left, and the girl was silent for a moment before muttering in a muttered voice.
"There's no need for that, Nan." Payne's voice was indifferent when he heard this, but there was also a hint of intriguing, "He should have expected this situation a long time ago, but that ulterior motive interest did not match his intelligence." ”
"And a little unconfident, kaleidoscope writing wheel eyes" Xiao Nan tilted his head slightly, and his cold expression brought out a hint of playfulness.
"Maybe, but I'm not interested in the Uchiha Ling either." Payne played with the ring engraved with the word "zero" on his thumb, his eyes playful.
"One or two are so nasty." Xiao Nan shook his head helplessly
"But at the moment I don't doubt his reasons, everything is exactly the same as the information he gave us."
As soon as the words fell, the two of them didn't say much, their amber eyes and rippling pupils stared at each other, and they both understood each other's thoughts at the moment
