Chapter 1 Salvage

The river is muddy, and the raindrops are connected into lines, fine and dense like thousands of willow branches, sweeping obliquely on the water surface, and the water waves ripple with a dim luster like rusty iron.

The endless precipitation did not wash away the sediment in the river, but washed the turbidity into the stream.

The teenagers sat on the bluestone on the shore, holding a long fishing rod in their hands, and the bait made of earthworms sank into the water, tempting the fish around them, and suddenly retracted the rod, and there was an extra fish more than 30 centimeters long on the hook struggling and writhing.

"Wow, that's a big one, you can make soup tonight!"

The girl sitting next to her raised the bucket in her hand and cheered, smiling.

"Haha, Nagato, awesome, right?" The orange-haired boy proudly waved the big fish on the hook, and when he heard the girl's cheers, he added three points of strength and showed off to his companion sitting on another bluestone.

"Well, it's amazing, I haven't caught any of them!"

The red-haired boy was covered with silk, covering most of his face, but the corners of his mouth were curved, and he praised his partner sincerely.

"Wow······ Nagato, you're stupid! Don't be so weak, we are manly, and we must speak loudly. The orange-haired boy showed a depressed and bitter face, this reaction was not what he wanted, and the psychological gap made him depressed.

"Hahaha! Yahiko, Nagato is different from you, people are very well-behaved, you think everyone is as skinny as you! ”

Seeing the interaction between the two, the girl on the shore couldn't help laughing, squatted down holding her stomach, and couldn't stand up straight with her laughter.

"Hmph, I'm determined to conquer the world."

Yahiko looked at the laughing girl, hummed softly, and had a little more smile on her face, which made Xiao Nan happy, but it was worth it.

After the laughter, Yahiko played again.

"When will Mr. Jiraiya come back? It's been almost a month since they were gone. ”

Xiao Nan lowered his head, looked at the fish swimming in the bucket, and sighed softly.

"It is estimated that it will take a while, didn't you say it when Teacher Jiraiya left, Konoha and Sand Shinobi have been fighting fiercely recently, and a master like Teacher Jiraiya will definitely not be idle and have nothing to do." Nagato said softly.

"For a while······ How long is a period of time? Yahiko. ”

"Huh? I don't know, it should be a long time anyway······" Yahiko scratched his head, this question is really tricky.

"Yahiko, Xiao Nan, look, something has floated down upstream, it's so black and big."

Nagato suddenly shouted loudly, interrupting Yahiko's words.

"What?"

"What's that?"

The attention of the two was instantly drawn to the past, and they looked towards the upper reaches of the river.

The murky water of the river churned, and a black object, about a meter six or seven in length, swayed on the surface of the river, gradually drifting towards the place where Yahiko and the others were fishing.

"What is this?"

The unknown object floating in the water was salvaged by Yahiko and rested on the bluestone, and the three of them looked in a circle.

"I don't know, it looks like a person, could it be inside······ Is it human? Xiao Nan bit his pink lip, hesitated for a moment, and expressed his opinion.

"People? It's a bit of a person, but ······ It's more accurate to describe it as a corpse than a person, and it's a charred corpse, this thing is definitely charcoal······" Yahiko stretched out his finger and poked at the end of the black object.

"Click!"

As soon as Yahiko's fingers touched it, the black object cracked a small slit, and the pitch-black debris was washed away by the rain and fell, followed by small pieces of coke peeling off.

If it was really charcoal, Yahiko was not mistaken, and there was an extra smell of burnt barbecue in the air.

"Be careful!"

Yahiko pulled Konan and Nagato behind him in a panic, staring at the broken black coke vigilantly, through the cracks, a pair of dark and indifferent eyes looked at Yahiko, he had seen that kind of cold eyes, and he had seen the same look in Yunin's eyes, which was the eyes that wanted to kill.

The black mole shattered, and the red-striped boy sat up.

"Ahhh Xiao Nan, you close your eyes and don't look. ”

Yahiko panicked like an old hen that had blown up her nest, and hurriedly covered Xiao Nan's eyes.

"What? What the hell is it? Yahiko, what are you doing! ”

Xiao Nan was very dissatisfied with Yahiko's actions, but after a slight struggle, he quieted down.

······

"Can I borrow a piece of clothing?"

Sitting on the cold bluestone, the moon watcher spoke.

Taking the coat thrown by Nagato and tying it around his waist to cover his little brother, Guanyue rubbed his head and thought about it, and the situation in front of him made him a little confused.

When I woke up, I was still thinking about the battle with Xiong Saburo, and I was dying, but I didn't expect to attract the thunder of the sky, and I almost completely carbonized him, but fortunately, he used the thunder chakra to forge his body on weekdays, and he seemed to be somewhat accustomed to the feeling of being struck by lightning, and finally did not turn him into ashes, but survived strongly.

The skin and muscles on the surface were all carbonized by the thunder, turned into a thick mortar and wrapped him, threw him into the valley of the river, drifted with the waves, all the way down, I don't know how long it was, how far he drifted, he fainted shortly after falling into the water, until Yahiko and they scooped him up, and he woke up.

"Goo~~~"

The belly sank slightly, and there was a loud bowel sound.

"Who are you?"

Yahiko let go of the hand that was covering Xiao Nan, but still protected Xiao Nan and Nagato behind him, staring at the moon vigilantly.

An orphan without a father or mother can grow up so big, not to mention that it is still in a place like the Land of Rain, Yahiko is not as simple as it seems, and the way the moon appears is so weird, there is nothing wrong with being careful.

"Hmm······ I'm a Konoha ninja who was accidentally struck by lightning and floated down the river, so thank you three for getting me out of the river! Rubbing her empty stomach, Guanyue was also thinking about how to deal with these three people.

As he spoke, he was also looking at the reactions of the three people, and sure enough, when he mentioned Konoha, the hostility on Xiao Nan's face obviously subsided a little, Yahiko tightened his face, and he couldn't see the change, and Nagato's eyebrows were shrouded in long hair, and he didn't seem to react.

"If you are struck by lightning, you can still survive, you coax the child, we can't be fooled." A kunai slipped out of Yahiko's sleeve and clenched it in his hand, "And you said that you are a Konoha ninja, is there any evidence?" Who are you trying to deceive, if you don't give a reasonable answer, I will accept your life. ”
