72 Again
"Red Bean, where are you going?"
At night, the bright moonlight shines down, and through the dense foliage, the forest does not look dark.
The night watchman asked with concern when he saw "Red Bean" get up from the tent and get out. In his opinion, although Hongdou's body is almost better, he still needs to rest more and don't run into any big beasts when he comes out. After all, no one can guarantee that there is no omission in checking the safety of the surrounding environment beforehand.
"Go to the bathroom." Hanzo pretended to be cowardly, imitating the voice of the red bean and said.
"Alright! Go and come back quickly, and stay safe. ”
"Got it."
Hanzo pretended to be calm and slowly walked away from the camp, farther and farther away.
In the eyes of others, it's just that it's inconvenient for girls to get too close, but it's actually Hanzo who wants to run away. This is also the reason why Hanzo is nervous.
Hanzo watched the days pass day by day, and his body gradually "improved", it was difficult to think of a way to delay, and seeing Konoha getting closer and closer, his heart was even more tormented.
Today, when Hanzo got the news of Orochimaru, not to mention how excited he was, he really wanted to sing "I've been waiting for a long time to finally wait for today".
Seeing that the distance was almost there, Hanzo hurriedly ran away, and he didn't care about eliminating the traces of retreat.
It's dark now, and although there is moonlight, it doesn't matter if you don't clean up the traces, it's hard to see anyway. It is only during the day that those traces are used by the pursuers. And at that time, Hanzo was ready to remove some traces.
If you don't walk quickly, maybe the movement may attract people.
Soon, the guards, who hadn't seen Hanzo back for a long time, noticed that something was wrong and quickly woke up his companions to look for Hanzo together.
It's just that at this time, they didn't know that Hanzo had fled here, and they thought that Hanzo had been taken away by a wild beast. But no matter how much I searched, I couldn't find any traces of the beast's activities or Hanzo's struggle with it.
It wasn't until daytime that they noticed the trail of only one person running away that they realized the problem.
"Why did Azuki Bean leave us?"
"I don't know, there must be something going on that we don't know."
"Now that I think about it, it took her so long to recover, and there were always some inexplicable requests on the way, it seems that they were premeditated."
"Cut! What's the use of saying this, didn't we all think it was red beans as a girl and something bad for boys to know! Now it's better to find her and find out what happened. ”
"Yes, anyway, the traces of her running haven't been cleared."
Soon, the remaining three people of the team walked to the distance that Hanzo had walked overnight, and the search was a little difficult at this time.
For Hanzo, Orochimaru's request was a bit difficult, not only to keep Konoha's ninjas from getting lost, but also to prevent them from catching up quickly, otherwise he would not be able to escape.
So as soon as daylight came, Hanzo changed his strategy and artificially created difficulties for them. On the way, Hanzo has a shadow clone who is responsible for dealing with traces in the back and some misleading work.
"Come and see."
A ninja called the remaining two people to his side to see the traces found.
"It seems that Hongdou consciously wants to get rid of us, otherwise she won't do some trace cleaning work."
"In that case, we have to be vigilant in the next action, and we can't see her as a companion anymore."
"Does it really need to be like this?"
"Yes! Whether she is controlled by others or intentionally, there is a potential risk to us, and doing so is to protect us. ”
"Okay!"
As they followed up little by little, the three found that they couldn't treat the "red beans" in their eyes as a rookie.
It was almost dark, but the group of three didn't follow as quickly as before, and didn't go far in the right direction.
In order to make them both unhappy and not to be lost, Hanzo sometimes deliberately made a fork in the road, making them feel that they were trying to divide their forces and weaken their strength, so that they could move forward cautiously and minimize the division of troops. Spend a certain amount of time on the wrong path.
"Stop."
Seeing that the leader suddenly stopped, the two subordinates immediately stopped, thinking that there was a trap ahead.
"What's the matter, my lord, there's a trap ahead?"
"Nope! There is no front, but there is a problem with continuing to walk. ”
Seeing that the two subordinates were puzzled, he continued to explain: "At first I thought she was a rookie and couldn't clean up the traces, and then after a while, I found that she was very misleading and not weaker than us, but now I think she is deliberately luring us to follow. ”
"How...... How could it be! The two ninjas were incredulous. At such an age, the ability to track and counter-track is already incredible and amazing compared to an experienced old ninja like them, and it is even more difficult to accept it now to surpass them.
If not, why didn't she use it in the first place? So, there is only one truth! ”
"So what now?"
The leading ninja pondered for a moment and continued, "In that case, we will continue to track, but we must find a way to report the situation here first. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly saw a figure flash in the canopy of a tree in the distance, running towards him.
"Be on guard! Someone came over. ”
The three of them formed and waited for each other's arrival.
"You are!"
"You are!"
Both sides asked each other loudly at the same time. Because judging from the uniforms, both sides are Konoha ninjas.
"The Shadows?"
"Yes! What squad are you and how are you on a mission here? ”
The code was connected, and it was confirmed that it was indeed his own person, and the two sides exchanged information.
"What, big ...... Orochimaru-sama has betrayed the village! ”
The three of them couldn't believe that as Konoha Sannin, the heroes of the previous generation of villages would do such a thing.
"It seems that Hongdou got the news when he left, and it may even be that Orochimaru told him through some secret channel."
"Then let's act together."
"Good!"
The efficiency of forming a new team has also increased a lot, and he soon found the red bean lying on the beach unconscious.
Hanzo made a time difference with them, taking advantage of the fact that they didn't catch up and rushed to the place that Orochimaru said in advance, and then carried the red bean planted with the curse mark on his back to another place.
Of course, Hanzo took the opportunity to meet with Tenchi and blackmailed him, in exchange for his research on spirits for the reason of luring the Konoha ninja elsewhere to save Tenchi from changing places.
At the base of the Tenchi, Hanzo stood in the center to report the situation to Orochimaru.
"Hanzo is so good, how can I reward you?"
"My lord laughed, it's my honor to do things for you."
"Really? If I can't give you strength, are you still willing? ”
Hanzo was speechless.
Suddenly, Orochimaru sealed, stretched his neck and bit Hanzo.
"Why, haven't you already cast a spell before, why do you want to do it again?" Enduring the pain, Hanzo asked Orochimaru.
Licking his lips, Orochimaru retracted his tongue into his mouth and said, "This is the final version, I added something, with it I can trust you completely and teach you more, isn't that also good for you." ”
"Something different?" With this question, Hanzo fell into a coma......
