"Mr. Takei, at our pace, we can enter the Land of Fire in another day."

Kenshin Takei sat in the carriage, listening to the reminder of Shinobi Yamazaki Ryohei outside the car, his head stretched out of the car and his eyes swept around, at this time, the yellow sand and Gobi unique to the country of wind have gradually become scarce, and some wild grass and sparse trees have begun to appear on the horizon.

"Hey! That's great, to be honest, I'm really tired of seeing the desolate sight of the Land of Wind, or the Land of Fire is comfortable. Kenshin Takei touched his delicate mustache and said politely to Ryohei Yamazaki: "Next, I will continue to trouble Your Excellency Yamazaki, although nothing happened along the way, but please be careful, if the speed can be faster." ”

Ryohei Yamazaki, who had a bald head strapped to his head and a frosty face, was a little dissatisfied with his employer's complaints about the country of wind, but he didn't say anything, his eyes swept over the few figures following the convoy, and he couldn't help frowning: "Mr. Takei, it's enough for us to escort you, why do you want to recruit those wandering ninjas of unknown origin, if there are some ill-intentioned guys hidden in them, it will only make us more troublesome." ”

The employer in front of him is also a well-known wealthy merchant in the country of the wind, but because he often travels to and from various countries, he often needs to be guarded to protect his safety, in the ninja world, the country is not very peaceful, in the eyes of those down-and-out samurai and wandering ninjas, this kind of merchant is undoubtedly a fat sheep, so it also makes the task of the ninja village in various countries more entrusted, this Takei Kenshin is the old customer of the sand hide.

Only this time, although the employer also entrusted them to escort as usual, it seemed to be hiding something, but Yamazaki Ryohei didn't have the heart to get to the bottom of it, but then the employer inexplicably hired some wandering ninjas to escort him, which made him extremely dissatisfied, in addition to looking down on these lost dogs, but also because he was afraid that among these guys of unknown origin, there were some dangerous elements hiding in the mission to cause unexpected trouble.

Takei Ken was unimpressed, and said with a smile on his face: "Your Excellency Yamazaki, I am very satisfied that you are so careful, but I think you are really too sensitive, I recruited those people, although they can't compare with you, but they can also add some security strength to us, right?" Besides, with you and your team here, even if there are really ghosts among them, are you still afraid of them? ”

Although he was playing haha on the surface, he was helpless in his confidence, this time the journey was indeed a little different, because that thing was too valuable, but it couldn't be easily exposed, so he also concealed the difficulty of the task, but in order to be more at ease, he recruited some wandering ninja guards, of course, it was more important to hire wandering ninjas, compared to the regular ninjas hired in the ninja village, the cost was too cheap.

He didn't know the word "guilt", but he also knew what it meant, and now he could only pray that the road was safe, and that he would rush to the city of karma as soon as possible to complete the transaction with the buyer, as long as this order was completed, even if the other goods on this trip were lost, it would be a drop in the bucket for him.

"Mr. Takei, we are also for your safety, please be cautious!" Ryohei Yamazaki frowned, his tone already a little impatient.

"Your Excellency Yamazaki!" A middle-aged man dressed in a kimono and wearing a katana walked over and said coldly to Ryohei Yamazaki: "I think you are afraid that those wandering ninjas will rob you of the mission of the hidden village, what kind of wandering ninjas have ghosts...... Hehe, before I became Mr. Takei's guard, I was a wandering ninja, do you even have to doubt me? ”

Ryohei Yamazaki looked disdainful, a miscellaneous fish who was just a mere forbearance, and he was not an employer, where did he have the courage to talk to him like this: "You ......"

Kenshin Takei interrupted him, and his tone became slightly cold: "Your Excellency Yamazaki, even if you are the upper shinobi of Shayin Village and your strength is strong, please don't forget who is the employer between us, I understand your kindness, but I'm not brainless, and I don't need to be taught how to do things!" ”

Yamazaki Ryohei was suddenly depressed, in the ninja world, his strength in the ninja world is also a bit weighty, but for the hidden village, the employers are all uncles, unless the hidden village wants to let the tasks run to the hidden villages of other countries, and then there is no funds, what can be developed with the appropriation of the daimyo, as long as Yamazaki Ryohei is still a ninja of the sand hide, these uncles have to be carefully served, unless he dares to betray the village as a traitor, he doesn't need these guys.

"Since Mr. Takei insists, I won't say more, but if there is really an accident that we can't take care of because of those guys, I will state first, when the time comes, we will only prioritize your safety, and we will not guarantee anything else!"

Glaring gloomily at the guard, Ryohei Yamazaki walked towards his team with an ugly face, but he had already decided in his heart that he must have people watch those wandering ninjas carefully.

Looking at Yamazaki Ryohei's back, Takei Kenshin inexplicably felt that the other party's worries seemed to be a little reasonable, and said solemnly to his bodyguard head with some uneasiness: "Gantai, are you sure that the people you are looking for are fine, can you really believe it?" ”

Ueno Kanta said calmly: "Mr. Takei, please rest assured of this, they are all friends I knew before, because you need them this time, I specially brought them all here, if any of them really have any bad intentions, I will definitely be the first to get rid of him!" ”

"That's good!" Takei Kenshin's heart was put back again, and he smiled with satisfaction: "You go and tell them that as long as I can reach Karma Fire City safely this time, no matter whether there will be accidents along the way, I will add fifty percent to them if they will pay them." ”

"Then I'll thank you on their behalf." Kanta Ueno said with a grateful smile.

Takei waved his hand magnificently, but in fact, there was still some pain in his heart.

Kanta Ueno turned and walked over to the wandering ninjas at the end of the convoy, greeting them familiarly, and relaying Takei's words to a cheer.

It's just that although these people are all happy, there seems to be a gap between them, and although they all know Kanta Ueno, in fact, some people don't know each other.

Then Ueno fell to the end without a trace, side by side with an ordinary young man who was short in stature and looked like a dwarf.

Then he seemed to be talking to himself, and muttered, "Orochimaru-sama sent you alone, it can't be a joke, right?" ”

The dwarf youth glanced at him, and said in a voice that only two people could hear, "Your intelligence didn't say that there would be a sand hidden shinobi. ”

"Impossible, I also put this information in the intelligence, did Orochimaru-sama forget to tell you?" Kanta Ueno's gaze at the dwarf youth suddenly became a little suspicious.

The dwarf young man paused, and a few words popped out of his mouth with hatred: "This bastard! You want to pit me again! ”

"What?" Kanta Ueno didn't hear clearly.

"Nothing." The dwarf youth said lightly, "Lord Orochimaru has his own arrangements, you don't have to worry, you just need to cooperate with us." ”

Although there were still some doubts, Kanta Ueno finally nodded and said solemnly: "Okay then, as long as Orochimaru-sama doesn't forget to promise me something afterwards." ”

The dwarf youth nodded faintly, although he didn't know what Orochimaru promised him.

After receiving a satisfactory answer, Ueno was too satisfied and pretended to walk away as if nothing had happened.

Watching Kanta Ueno walk away, the dwarf youth's gaze swept over the sand hidden team in the convoy, and then became full of resentment: "My good teacher! You're really going to surprise me...... If it weren't for the fact that you promised to find an opportunity to lend me the Book of Seals...... Hum! ”
