Chapter 116: The Choice of Advance and Retreat
The mountain is high and the road is slippery.
The stone mountain is bare, polished by the rain as smooth as a mirror, and it is slippery under the feet when you step on it.
It is also thanks to the people who watched the moon that they were able to withstand the torrential rain and walk in this steep and slippery mountain.
The road surface is slippery, the water on the mountain is flowing down the undulating slope, the water flow is small like a gurgling spring, sticking to the bluestone but a thin layer of water ripples down, and the big place rumbles, looking at it, a waterfall that is five or six meters wide falls down from the cliff, the momentum is extremely majestic.
"You can't see anything like that in the Land of Fire."
In a hurry, everyone couldn't help but be attracted by the strange scenery of this rain country.
"This is also a rare sight in the land of rain, only in the steep mountains, this short-lived waterfall can be seen during the rainstorm season, and when the heavy rain is gone, there are only some clear springs and streams left." Fu Yue explained casually, showing his knowledge a little.
He has been on the front line of the Land of Rain for a long time, and he was promoted to the Shinobi after he made meritorious contributions in the Land of Rain, and since the day he became the Shinobi, he has never left the Land of Rain, and after staying for a long time, his understanding of the Land of Rain has unconsciously deepened.
"This bird weather is really hateful, people are going to be made into soup chickens, this broken hat is simply useless, Baba ran out to find guilt and ······"
Kamiya complained in a low voice, with a look of resentment on his face, not knowing at all to hide the displeasure in his heart, or rather not wanting to hide it.
Rushing in such a situation is really a hard errand, the clothes on the body are soaked, the road under your feet is slippery, the cold wind and cold air go straight to the cracks of the bones, and the rain curtain is heavy to block the view, all kinds of hardships are varied, in short, it is hard to boil!
It's a matter of course to be dissatisfied.
But ninjas, since they are called by such a name, the patience of the vast majority of people is not bad, and even if they are dissatisfied, they rarely show it, especially for their superiors.
A stupid and bold animal like Kamiya is also a rare animal.
Fuyue hurried away vigorously, and he didn't hear the whispering complaints of Kamiya.
"Captain!"
A shout broke the strange atmosphere, attracting everyone's attention, looking at the moon, the fast-moving team stopped for the first time, because Fugaku, who was at the front of the line, turned back.
"Someone is catching up."
Wiping a handful of the rain on his face, Guanyue said in a deep voice.
Unable to use Kagura's Mind Eye while moving, his sensing range was much smaller, but it was a little larger than the maximum sensing range of the rest of the Ninja.
"Really? How could the sand ninja catch up with this weather? ”
Rope Tree showed a ghost-like expression, looked at Guanyue with a blank face, and hurriedly said: "Guanyue, I won't doubt your information, I'm just a little surprised, Sand Shinobi is desperate enough." ”
"Four people, just behind us, the straight-line distance is about a kilometer over, counting the rugged path here, the actual distance should be two and a half kilometers." Guanyue raised two fingers and shook it. "As for the method of tracking us······ I can't see through it for a while."
In the ninja world, there are too many strange secret techniques, which may have been passed down from the past, or it may be the flash of a genius, which has led to the emergence of all kinds of secret techniques, and because of the hostile relationship between the major ninja villages, the information is isolated, and it is difficult to tell what new tricks the other party has not seen.
"His grandmother's, he really caught up, these sand ninjas' reactions are faster than dogs." Kamiya scratched his head, his short silver hair was soft and sticking to his scalp, a little itchy, and he smiled embarrassedly at Fuyue, and he was still complaining about the rainy day, and now a ticket came out to chase the soldiers.
The world is coming so fast!
Fugaku was in no mood to pay attention to Kamiya, according to his thoughts, it was better not to show up after the chasers or anything, even if Kamiya or anyone else complained all the way, it didn't matter, listening to people nagging was better than going to fight with Sand Shinobi.
However, nine times out of ten, things in the world are often unsatisfactory, and the pursuers do not disappear to his liking, but they still catch up after all, but fortunately, he has an outstanding ability to observe the moon, which can be called the only one he has seen in his life, and he has mastered the movements of the sand ninja many times in advance, leaving him enough time to think.
The most pressing issue now is how to deal with the pursuit of the sand ninja.
Is it a war? Is it to go?
The two choices, each with its own difficulties, were difficult to decide for a while, and the worried Fu Yue frowned, and his expression became more and more fierce.
"What do you guys have in mind? Is it to fight here, or to hurry quickly and get rid of the pursuers of the sand ninja? ”
This time, Fu Yue did not make an arbitrary decision, but consulted everyone's intentions, which surprised everyone.
"Captain, aren't you dazed in the rain?" Kamiya's eyes widened, and he blurted out, and only when the words came out did he realize that something was wrong, and hurriedly waved his hand in the eyes of everyone's pity, explaining, "No, I didn't mean that, captain, I'm just that······ This ······"
I wanted to explain, but I didn't know how to explain, and my pretty face turned red in a hurry.
Along the way, Fuyue He had consulted with others, and he decided matters big and small alone, but it was unusual to ask for advice like this, and it was not surprising that Kamiya was so unscrupulous, he was not the only one who was surprised, but the self-control of the rest of the people was obviously not bad.
Fugaku didn't pay attention to Kamiya, but swept his gaze over the faces of Kanzuki, Rope Tree, Otome, and Hoshio one by one.
"Fight! It's hard to get rid of us in such bad weather, so it's better to get ready for a fight. Otome spoke, her voice as cold as a cold spring, her black hair scattered over her face, and only a pair of almond eyes were unusually bright.
"We are in the rear of the sand ninja, if we leave the chasing soldiers alone, it is likely to fall into a heavy encirclement, I thought it would be better to fight here, the chasing soldiers came so fast, not so much that the sand ninja reacted quickly, I think it is more likely that one of the sand ninja's teams collided by chance, so we caught up, as long as we can annihilate this sand ninja, the sand ninja should not be able to catch us in a short time."
"Of course, there is also a lot of risk in this, the strength of this sand ninja force cannot be determined, if it is a soft persimmon, it will naturally be suspended, but if the idea is pricked, it is not impossible to capsize the boat in the gutter."
Hoshio Ichiro said slowly, the analysis was clear, and at the end, he said: "Of course, this is all my own speculation, and I have to say both fiction and reality."
"I think this is very reasonable, the valley was a key road before, except for the people and horses in the supply station, it is estimated that there are many people passing by, probably because of bad luck bumped into a certain sand ninja force, and caught up, it can only be said that bad luck." Someone else said that they supported Xingwei's speculation.
