"Mom."

A call was made in the distance, and Sara quickly got up and wiped her tears with her back to the voice, wiped them a few times, and rubbed her clothes again, and when the visitor came out of the corner, she became a graceful young woman again.

The person who came was also with long red hair, almost the same as Sara carved out of a mold many years ago, and was a little surprised to see Naruto here, Sara put away the photo and introduced Naruto, "My daughter." ”

His gaze flickered back and forth over the two of them, and the time span of the dragon vein gave him the feeling that he had planted one apple half an hour ago and two growing half an hour later.

Feeling too awkward, Naruto decided to divert the subject: "Do you remember? ”

Who knew that Sara actually laughed: "Sure enough, you guys did something in my memory." ”

Pointing to the swing and motioning for her daughter to pass, Sara strode towards the large area of ruins buried by the wind and sand in the distance, biting the corner of her lip for fear that she would cry again.

Naruto slowly followed.

"I don't remember what happened at the beginning, but I found that kunai when I was cleaning up the ruins, Loulan couldn't make this metal, I was sure that it was foreign, I searched for a long time, but I didn't find its source, until two years ago, I happened to learn some news about this blue metal, I had some guesses, and then a month ago, I learned about those runes that appeared in Konoha, and I was sure that it came from you."

I'm not used to you.

Naruto couldn't reconcile the little girl who used to scream when she met, walked on the ground and fell on the ground, and saw the swing like seeing the treasure and the queen in front of him.

"Was it the dragon vein that sent you there?"

"Yes."

"Sure enough."

There was silence on both sides.

After walking for a while, in addition to the wind and sand and gravel, and occasionally a few exposed walls were also eroded and devastated, Sara stared for a long time and said, "It... It shouldn't be like this. ”

"After those people were rescued, I thought a lot about the direction of Loulan's development, and implemented some, but unfortunately Loulan was involved in the war, I had no choice but to escape with civilians, and then later, we became wandering merchants, at first I would come back several times a year, but every time I saw it, it was heartbreaking, maybe it was to escape, and then the number of times was less, I came back once a year, experienced war, and no one took care of it, it became like this, think about it, I still failed anyway, thank you for the photos."

"It's great to be able to take them out." Naruto was telling the truth: "Have you ever thought about developing it again?" ”

"I've thought about it, but it's not realistic, personnel, technology, funds, no, I can't let them gamble with me for my dream, it's an empty shell after all, Loulan is just a code name, important people, developing it will consume too many people, a city without people is meaningless, you should have seen it."

I've grown a lot, and I think I've experienced a lot... Naruto pinched his chin and looked at the wind-swept ruined city, muttered for two seconds, and said, "Why don't I borrow you some?" Technology is also good, I have a master, An Lushan's technology is copied from his toys. ”

Sara politely refused: "No need, thank you for your kindness, the lonely city in the wind, like a rootless duckweed, we people can't hold it." ”

Also, the geographical location of Loulan is indeed quite partial, on the edge of the desert, it is difficult to develop an inn, which is as unique as Konoha, the environment, personnel, and materials are all ninja worlds, and you can develop if you lie down and don't do it.

Even the old girl and the three generations who don't know what productivity is can be a village, especially Tsunade, so it's a thought to let her lead the people to make a fortune, and with her monthly salary, it's good not to gamble Konoha into it.

Kindness?

Gambling... Desert Lonely City...

Naruto had a flash of inspiration and knocked his hand excitedly: "Why don't you try the gambling industry?" ”

"Huh?"

Half an hour later, the two returned to the swing, where Sarah's daughter was sitting and playing leisurely.

"Then let's do it first, let's go, bye-bye." Naruto waved his hand to light up the portal.

The purple light was pervasive, the girl stared curiously, Sara waved goodbye, then took out the photo and handed it to her daughter, and gently pushed it after coming to the swing: "This is our former home, Mom decided to build it again, if Mom can't finish it, you can take over Mom's place and continue to build, okay." ”

"No problem, leave it to me!" The girl patted her chest in reassurance.

"Good boy." Running her daughter's long hair, Sara looked down at the photo in her hand and hummed softly.

"Rising sunshine, fanatical thoughts..."

"The dragon vein that should be guarded..."

A one-person solo becomes a two-person chorus.

In the midst of the song, the newly grown green leaves of the trunk of the tree rustled, as if dancing to the song, and as if celebrating the second time it was heard after many years.

———

On the other side, Naruto, who returned to Konoha, rushed to the back door of Hinata's house as soon as possible, and used lighting magic as a signal to invite Hinata-sama on a date.

The result is about one out of two.

The second Miss Hinata, who was following closely behind the eldest lady, looked at a certain yellow hair who said goodbye without saying goodbye and made her sister worry for a long time.

Naruto ignored Lori and took out a bunch of pots and pans as a gift during Hinata-sama's concerned inquiry.

The eldest lady was very happy and pulled Naruto and walked towards his house.

Leave a Lori who doubts her life.

Shopping, strolling, going home to make love, that afternoon, Naruto, who came home for dinner, sighed infinitely, and I don't know if it was a psychological effect, the 22-year-old broken bowl was so fragrant.

No, it should be said that the daughter-in-law's craftsmanship has improved.

Putting down the bowl, I was about to give a compliment and then carry out some thoughts after food and clothing, when someone knocked on the window of my home.

A dozen eyes, salted fish again.

I should have left you in the desert and walked back on your own.

Kakashi's breath was unsettled, and he panted and said, "Come with me to the Hokage's office." ”

Naruto rolled his eyes: "You can't use the slug to notify you in such a hurry?" ”

"Just passing by."

Teleported to the door of the Hokage's office, there was a lot of movement in the house, and when I heard it, I knew that there were a lot of people inside, and as soon as Naruto took out his mask, Kakashi had already pushed the door open.

I found that everyone in the house knew each other, Jiraiya, Asma and his wife, Uncle Gao, Akido Dingza, Nara Shikaku, Yamanaka Haiichi, etc., a bunch of people were there.

Since they were acquaintances, Naruto didn't wear a mask, and Shi Shiran walked into the house.

Seeing him, everyone in the room looked at him with the same expression, except for himself—this is a brute.

Naruto was stunned: "What do you mean?" ”

A group of people stepped out of the way, revealing a large photograph hanging on the wall behind them.

The photo was taken from a long distance, and it is difficult to see the details, except for the towering cone-shaped peaks and the huge round crater in the middle of the peaks.

The shape of this pit... Why is it so familiar?

Flipping through the memories in his head, Naruto suddenly realized, remembered, I said why is it so familiar, this land has felt pain.

Not only was the pit familiar, but the surrounding mountain Naruto also felt familiar, and asked, "Where is this?" ”

Tsunade replied in a deep voice, "Yunyin Village, at eight o'clock this morning, Yunyin Village was attacked, and this is the scene after the attack. ”

Senior brother, yes.

"So, you called me here to help me fill in the hole out of humanitarian reasons?"
