Why did the topic of these Seven Elders change so quickly, just now I was still marveling at the talent of Beidao Shengxiang, but now they suddenly want me to go to Stonehenge? Did he find something? Yao Shuang was apprehensive.

Just at this moment when the atmosphere was extremely tense, Kitajima Youxiang, who was beside Yao Shuang, said with a smile: "Oh, Seventh Grandfather, you are a guest from afar, don't joke with Brother Kato." Beidao Youxiang's timely relief made Yao Shuang secretly breathe a sigh of relief. He echoed Kitajima Yuxiang and laughed a few times, and the seven elders also waved their hands with a smile, and said: "Today's ninja trial discovered a rare genius in my shadow ninja for hundreds of years, old man, I'm very happy, it's just a joke with Kensun Kato, hahaha......"

The Eighth Elder was also very happy, on the masked black cloth, the corners of his wrinkled eyes were slightly upturned, he felt very relieved, no matter whether the Seventh Elder was genuinely happy or pretended to agree, this could not change the fact that Beidao Shengxiang was about to rise.

"Okay, Seventh Brother, it's not too early, we should have lunch, this first-order trial will take two or three days, and young people will have the strength to conduct the trial only when they have a full stomach." After the Eighth Elder said this with a smile, he took the lead in leaving the high platform, the Seventh Elder and the Ten Elder also left separately, and Yao Shuang was invited to the Miying Building again by Beidao Youxiang, and after eating and drinking, it was soon afternoon.

Yao Shuang followed again, but there was no one amazing talent in the afternoon trial, Yao Shuang on the high platform looked drowsy, and finally suffered until the sun set, the long shadow disappeared, and the trial on the first day was stopped.

After saying goodbye to the two brothers of Kitajima Yuxiang, Yao Shuang walked briskly to the guest room under the leadership of the attendant.

"Angs...... This little brother, can you tell me about the detailed experience of the little girl Shengxiang? Yao Shuang's doubts for an afternoon finally came out, although he had the heart to ask Kitajima Youxiang before, but he was still afraid of arousing his suspicions, so he didn't ask, but Kitajima's background was very important, and it was about whether he could successfully assassinate her, so he had to find someone to ask clearly, and this attendant of the photo studio was the best breakthrough.

Yao Shuang asked very carefully, for fear that he would be suspected by the attendants, so he explained slightly: "The Shadow Ninja Clan has produced such a genius, I believe that the entire Six Dao Ninja is very concerned, as the first Outer Ninja Clan to witness the birth of a genius, I really want to have the capital and talking points to show off in the future." Yao Shuang said this, his face pretended to show a little smug, and the attendant couldn't help but sneer in a low voice when he looked at Yao Shuang's expression, but what he thought in his heart was: "Seeing that my shadow ninja is about to rise, you finally can't wait to come and talk to our Lord Shengxiang?" Hehe...... It's really eye-opening. ”

When the attendant heard Yao Shuang's explanation, he straightened his chest slightly, and snorted lightly in his nose, as if it was not Kitajima Shengxiang who passed the trial, but himself, Yao Shuang laughed twice, and the attendant finally spoke.

"Our Lord Shengxiang, her story is indeed inspirational enough, probably five years ago, she was taken to the Elders' House by the Second Elder, and followed the Second Elder to do some chores, it's really incredible to think about it, in just five years, it is worth thirty or forty years of cultivation for other people, this kind of talent, even the fire ninja can't compare."

"Angs...... Little brother watch ahead. Yao Shuang listened and walked, coldly shouted carefully, grabbed the attendant's arm, the attendant stopped sighing, and then looked at the front of him, the front is where the Black Lake is located, the two have unconsciously come to the edge of the Black Lake, in the late winter evening, the sky is dark, the attendant did not pay attention to the danger ahead, and was about to fall into the lake, but was pulled by Yao Shuang in time, so that he did not make a soup chicken.

"Oh, thank you Kato-sama for your timely help, you see I'm talking about this, I'm also too involved, I didn't notice the danger ahead, oops...... Thank you, Mr. Kato. The attendant bowed his head and thanked him, while Yao Shuang hurriedly waved his hand to say politely, and after the two of them exchanged politeness, they bypassed the black lake and turned to the direction of the guest room to the west.

Yao Shuang couldn't help but scold the attendant for a long time on the road, didn't he say anything for a long time? This information is already known in the morning, no, you have to get more information before you can do it!

Yao Shuang thought so and then asked, "Does the little brother know some interesting things about Lord Shengxiang's childhood?" For a genius as smart as her, her childhood must be different from ordinary people, right? ”

When the attendant heard Yao Shuang's question, he suddenly stopped and glanced around, seeing that there was no movement, so he lowered his voice and said, "Lord Shengxiang's childhood? Hehe...... Originally, it was inconvenient for Lady Shengxiang to tell outsiders about her background, but for the sake of Kato-sama's action to 'save my life', I will tell you, but you must not tell others that I told you, you know? ”

Yao Shuang heard that the attendant was finally willing to say a little weighty news, nodded hurriedly, raised his left hand and pretended to swear: "This little brother, don't worry, I will definitely not tell others, if there is half a leak, I will be detained here for a long time, and I will never be able to return to Storm Town!" ”

The attendant heard Yao Shuang's heavy oath, and immediately glanced around, and found that there was still nothing unusual around, so he cautiously leaned into Yao Shuang's ear and asked softly, "Does Lord Kato know the secrets of our clan's past?" ”

"Is it about the Sixth Day Demon King or the Battle of Tottori Mountain?" Yao Shuang guessed that this so-called secret was nothing more than these things that she had heard in her ears in the past two days.

"It's the matter of the Demon King exterminating the clan on the sixth day." The squire's voice became quieter.

"Oh...... I know a little bit about it. Yao Shuang, under the influence of the attendants, couldn't help but lower her voice.

"Hey......" The attendant sighed, and then went on to whisper some of the past events after the Shadow Shinobi was wiped out.

Since the Shadow Ninja was almost wiped out, the talents of the Shadow Castle have withered, and there are few people who can take on big things, so the Three Sages of Zhongxing have thought of a way, that is, to secretly gather all the innocent young disciples of the whole Dongying to enter the Shadow Castle, change their names and surnames, and let them learn the Shadow Ninja Technique, so as to achieve the goal of rapidly growing the Shadow Ninja. This plan was very famous in those years, and it was called the "ZTE Project".

But how could anyone in an ordinary family be willing to send their children to the Shadow Keep by changing their names and surnames? It can only be said that very little, no one entered the Shadow Castle, and the "ZTE Project" was forced to stop.

Later, the three saints of Zhongxing thought of a very cruel method, when Oda Nobunaga died, the world was in turmoil, the people were displaced, and countless children were lost in the war, so the three saints of Zhongxing sent people to search for orphans and widows in the whole of Dongying, and brought them into the Shadow Castle, this operation developed later, it was to directly kill his parents and elders, plunder his children to the castle, and forcibly force them to change their names and surnames, and since then they have been loyal to the Black Spirit Patriarch and become a member of the Shadow Ninja.

This kind of looting, after hundreds of years of development, finally took shape of the scale, and now Shadow Town, to put it bluntly, is the reserve force of the Shadow Castle, and these people in the town, including all the attendants, miscellaneous servants, guards and even the ancestors of the major elders in the Shadow Ninja Clan, are actually the descendants of the orphans who were plundered back then.

The authentic Kage Ninja North Island bloodline is only the patriarch.

This kind of forcible plundering of other people's children has not changed until now, and Kitajima Shengxiang is an orphan who was plundered five years ago.

When Yao Shuang heard this, there was already a faint voice in his heart telling him that Beidao Shengxiang should be Nanhuaxin, but he didn't dare to confirm it, after all, the news he heard at the labyrinth was that Nanhuaxin was worried about the nine or eleven elders, and it was very likely that she was imprisoned by these two people, on the other hand, if Beidao Shengxiang was Nanhuaxin, then how did she get brought to her by the second elder? As the Great Elder of the North Island Clear Sky Sect, could it be that he watched Nan Huaxin being taken away by his opponent and was indifferent? This is a point that Yao Shuang can't figure out.

The attendant didn't pay attention to Yao Shuang, who bowed his head and pondered when he talked about this, but kept sighing, as if he was reminiscing about the past. Yao Shuang was puzzled, and finally couldn't help but ask: "Then little brother, do you know the original name of Lord Shengxiang?" ”

When the attendant heard Yao Shuang's question, he also shook his head with some confusion, saying that he didn't know, but he still gave his opinion.

"Although I don't know what her name was before, I do know one thing, that is, the changed name is actually similar to the previous name."

"How?"

"For example, I'm actually a Shadow Town person, I was brought into the Shadow Castle when I was seven years old and became the young master's playmate, and when I grew up, I became the young master's attendant, but I don't dare to forget the name given by my parents, my original name was Tanaka Ren, and now my name is Kitajima Kyo, and the other person who entered the Shadow Castle at the same time as the young master's playmate, was originally called Sawada Yusuke, and now called Kitajima Suke, I think, Lord Shengxiang should be similar."

"Oh...... I understand, I didn't expect my little brother's life experience to be so tortuous......" Yao Shuang pretended to sigh and patted Kitajima Jing's shoulder to show comfort, but Kitajima Jing lowered his head and smiled bitterly, and stopped talking.

After Yao Shuang and the two talked about these past events, they parted ways, one went to the guest room, and the other went back to Beidao. Yao Shuang entered the guest room, rested for a while, and then a table of wine and food served by the guest room receptionist came in, Yao Shuang didn't feel very hungry, ate two bites at will, and then lay on the bed and closed his eyes to recuperate.

During this period of lying in bed, Yao Shuang thought a lot, and his plan had been disrupted, so he had to make some changes.

The previous plan was to kill Kitajima Shengxiang and trigger an infighting between the two factions, but after saving Kitajima Jing's life, Kitajima Jing had a heart-to-heart conversation with him, he had already understood Kitajima Shengxiang's identity, which was actually Nanhua Xin, the word Shengxiang, taken from Nanhua Xin's "Xin" character, combined with her age and the time she was robbed, you can confirm her identity.

As for the previous question, why was Nan Huaxin brought to her side by the second elder in a grand manner? Why is the reality different from the words of the North Island Clear Sky threatening South Huatian? These questions are really unknown.

Naturally, Kitajima Shengxiang couldn't kill her, because she was the target of her mission this time.

But to be honest, it was really difficult to rescue her from the master Shadow Castle, and I don't know if Nan Huaxin is really loyal to the Shadow Ninja clan. If not, then everything is fine, but if you are really loyal, it will be even more difficult.

According to the previous plan, it caused the infighting of the shadow ninja, so that he could fish in troubled waters, but this fuse that caused civil strife, without the choice of Kitajima Shengxiang, who should he go to?

Yao Shuang was in pain, everything that had happened in the Shadow Castle in the past few days had a strong smell of conspiracy, and this breathless depression made him very uncomfortable and wanted to escape from this place.

But after agreeing to Nan Huatian's affairs, how can he break his promise?

Although the attitude of the Seventh Elder and Beidao Youxiang today is very suspicious, although the conversation of this attendant tonight is very debatable, although Nan Huaxin's attitude is still unclear, Yao Shuang can't think about it so much, this ghost place, the longer you stay, the easier it is to have an accident, and she has to send it.

Yao Shuang has already decided to implement his plan tonight, and the unlucky guy who replaces Kitajima Shengxiang can be a disciple of the radical faction or a conservative figure, but weighing the pros and cons and killing Kitajima Mie, the Great Elder's faction has only one master with the supreme shadow seal, and the North Island Clear Sky is not in the clan, the radical faction may swallow his anger, there is no need to turn his face with the second elder for the life of a little disciple.

If the conservative figure is killed, then the second elder's faction, who has two masters of the supreme shadow seal, may have a greater chance of making a move and turning against the great elder.

So the people who are going to be killed tonight must be conservatives.

Just kill whom? Who could value the Second Elder more than Kitajima Shengxiang?

Yao Shuang pondered for a long time, and suddenly a flash of inspiration occurred in his mind, and he got up and shouted outside the door: "Bring the wine!" ”

After a while, the attendants outside the door brought a whole five jars of wine, Yao Shuang smiled and waved his hand, let the attendants exit the door, and then picked up a jar of wine, raised his head and drank it.
