"Hello, uncle, may I ask, have you heard that there is a lake near here that is rumored to have monsters?"

The scorching sun was scorching, and on an unknown path in the land of water, Katsura Mu, who was under the transformation technique, walked towards an old man who was leaning on the shade under the big tree and asked, this is the eighth place he inquired, and it is obvious that the first seven are not where the three tails are located.

"A lake with monsters!?"

The old man was stunned for a moment, then squinted his eyes and looked at the appearance of Katsuragi's transformation technique, which didn't look like a ninja ordinarily, so he asked, "Why are you asking about this?" ”

"Oh, I'm an author, and I've been writing some books about water monsters lately, so I'm here to draw on them."

Gui Mu took out the small notebook prepared in advance, and said calmly, he also thought of Jiraiya, so he disguised himself as such, and the people he met before didn't suspect much, except for a few passers-by who had to ask him what book he had written before.

"Well, you're asking the right question!"

The old man looked at Katsura Mu, then sighed and persuaded: "Actually, many people in that place don't believe in water monsters, but I really saw one night, a very, very large, turtle-like monster came out of the water for a while, and then dived down again. ”

Guimu's body shook slightly, like a monster like a turtle, didn't the three tails just look like a turtle, so he hurriedly came to the old man's side and asked: "Uncle, you have seen monsters in person, can you give me a detailed description, if you don't mind, can you take me to the monster's place to have a look, thank you very much." ”

As he spoke, Katsuragi also took some money from his pocket and handed it to the old man with a smile on his face, which might save him some trouble and better determine the location of the three tails.

"Monster business!" Seeing Guimu's movements, the old man was stunned for a moment, then quickly took the money and put it in his pocket, and said with a satisfied face: "Of course you can, it's not me bragging, there is no one around here who knows more about monsters than me." ”

The old man stood up from the ground, patted the dust on his buttocks, picked up the luggage beside him, and said, "Let's go, I'll take you over." ”

"Trouble!" Katsuragi hurriedly followed by his side, thinking that this place was most likely the location of the three tails, and he felt a little uncontrollable excitement in his heart.

"Actually, there are a lot of people in our village who don't believe this rumor, and if it weren't for that night, I'm afraid I wouldn't believe that there were some such guys in that lake!" On the way, the old man began to tell Katsuragi how he had met Mio.

To put it simply, the old man is a fisherman, because he had a little dispute with his wife one night, so he directly took a pot of wine and a fishing rod and ran out to fish in the middle of the night.

Then it may have happened to run into Mio coming out to breathe fresh air, so he ran back in fright, and when he told the people in the village, everyone thought he was drinking and hallucinating.

After all, he was an ordinary person, and he was old, and he was not a young man with strong blood, and the village didn't believe him, and he didn't have to prove anything in a fit of anger, so the matter was later over.

Following the old man all the way to the destination, Guimu looked at the wide lake in front of him, this lake is indeed big enough, not to mention anything else, it is definitely enough to accommodate the three tails, unlike the previous time, the small lake like the pond, Gui Mu felt that the three tails must not be suffocated to death in it.

"Here it is, I remember very well, that's where I saw that monster."

The old man pointed to a location, and then maybe because Guimu had given money before, he instructed with concern: "Be careful, don't go into the water, although not many people have seen the appearance of that monster, but many sailors are missing in this lake, and there even seem to be ninjas, and the monsters in this lake are also spread out because of this." ”

"Thank you, uncle, I know, I just want to walk around here, I won't go into the water."

Katsuragi smiled and said to the old man, then looked at the calm lake, thinking about how to make sure that Mio was not inside.

"Okay, I've told you everything I need to say, so I'll go first."

The old man looked at Gui Mu on the lake, and didn't stay long, if it weren't for the money given by Gui Mu, he wouldn't have run so far to bring Gui Mu over, and sure enough, it proved once again that although money is not omnipotent, but no money is absolutely impossible.

"Well, goodbye."

After looking at the other party and disappearing from view, Katsura came to the shore, looked at the place pointed by the old man before, thought for a while, chakra attached to the soles of his feet, and then walked to the lake.

When he came to that area, Katsura looked down, and there were only faint ripples on the calm surface of the lake, and even the very clear water could only be seen a short distance down, and the deeper place was darkness.

Katsuragi first calmed down and perceived, but found nothing, after all, perception has always been his weakness, and then he looked around, conjured fox ears, and listened carefully, but still found nothing.

Back on the shore, Katsuragi thought, the previous seven times, he had gone into the water to the bottom of the lake to search carefully to make sure that there was no Miao, but this time it was different, he felt that Mio was very likely to be in this lake.

If he goes into the water, the battlefield may be underwater, which will be very bad for him.

"It would be nice to know the exact location." Katsuragi pondered, the three tails are not dead things, it will move, the last time the old man saw the three tails in this position, it does not mean that the three tails have always been in that position, this lake is so big, the three tails are completely free to swim around.

"Spiritism!"

Katsuragi thought for a moment, he didn't want to make too much noise to force the three tails out for the time being, so he planned to ask the Shikigami to help.

"Katsuragi!"

"What's wrong, Katsuragi!"

There are a total of five places for Shikami to summon, so this time Katsuragi summoned Fireflies, Three-Tailed Foxes, Snow Maidens, Yanyanluo, and the Demon Sword Ji who had just awakened not long ago.

As for why the demon sword Ji was summoned, first, I wanted her to see the world, and second, Gui Mu had an ominous premonition in his heart, and he wanted the demon sword Ji to take care of the three-tailed fox.

If this is really the location of the three tails, it cannot be ruled out that there is a white peer's surveillance, which means that there may be a Xiao existence.

"Nothing, there's something I want you to help me with." Katsuragi pointed to the big lake in front of him and explained to the women, "There may be a tailed beast in this lake, but I don't know its exact location, so I want you to help me keep an eye on it." ”

"Tailed beast!?"

The three-tailed fox looked at the lake curiously, and then asked Katsuragi, "Is it the same tailed beast as Naruto's body?" ”

"Hmm." Katsuragi nodded and said, "What Naruto has in his body is the Nine-Tails, and it's the Three-Tails. ”

"Three-tails? Three tails? The three-tailed fox suddenly became interested and asked, "Is it also a fox?" ”

"Ugh." Katsura Mu was stunned for a moment, and then replied slightly embarrassed: "No, it should be a little more like a turtle!" ”

"It's a turtle!"

The three-tailed fox was a little disappointed, which made Katsura a little helpless, why did the three-tailed fox always be so entangled in whether the other party was a fox or not, as if it had been the case several times before.

"Can a turtle still have three tails?"

Firefly asked strangely, so that the girls began to discuss this issue.

"I guess I can!"

"That's it, you see it's all foxes, the demon fox has one tail, the three-tailed fox has three, I heard her say that there are nine more in front of Yuzao, and the tail should have nothing to do with the race!" Yanyan Luo said with a serious analysis.
