Chapter 168: Underground
A drop of water dripped from the top of the damp cave, and with a ticking sound, it dripped into a small puddle on the ground of the cave, splashing a small splash. Two rats with red-eyed eyes stood in the corner of the tunnel, staring at a few fingers exposed on the high platform not far away, and their eyes exuded an inexplicable eating**.
The rat is humble, but here it is not the most humble.
The humblest of beings should be people.
The finger moved suddenly, and the two mice lowered their heads with some regret, and ran down the stone wall of the cave into the darkness.
The Holy Kingdom slowly woke up, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the pitch-black rock top, and his whole body looked like he had been run over by a truck, and it hurt so much that it was even difficult to breathe. He turned his head with great effort and saw a row of machines glowing green, and the slight turning of the cooling fan made him feel some relief inexplicably. Many tubes are connected to their bodies by some machines, and several tubes have liquids of various colors flowing in them.
If nothing else, this should be some secret base in Cloud Ninja Village, right?
He barely raised his hand, trying to struggle to sit up, but he couldn't. The pain of the torn muscle continued, and it was too much for him to bear.
After struggling for a while and losing all his strength, the Holy Kingdom let out a heavy breath and lay down on the bed as if he had resigned himself to his fate. It's just that his clenched fists are still describing the unwillingness in his heart.
It's a little bit close, it's a little bit close!
Maybe he was moving a little wide, or something else, when suddenly a machine beeped and beeped. In less than a moment, there was a slight sound of footsteps in the distance from the cave. The footsteps were getting closer, and the silhouette of a dark shadow appeared in the sight of the Holy Kingdom. It was a tall, thin figure that seemed to have long hair, was it a woman?
No!
The figure pressed on the stone wall, and the whole cavern instantly became brighter, and the blinding light made it difficult for him to see the person's appearance, and the man had already walked to his side.
"Being young is such an emotional thing, I can't be jealous that such a serious injury can wake up so quickly." , the voice is a little hoarse, with an indescribable taste.
The Holy Kingdom, which had adapted to the light and darkness, slowly opened his eyes and was stunned. In the last fragment of his memory, he had already seen two cloud ninja rushing towards him, and he also expected his end. But it's definitely not like this, if nothing else, the man standing in front of him he knows, almost everyone in Konoha Village.
Orochimaru!
The residents of Konoha Village have very mixed feelings about Orochimaru, not only recognizing him, worshiping him as a saninja who earned Konoha a great reputation, but also hating him for betraying the village and becoming a shame for Konoha Village. But no one can deny that this is a very powerful guy, and since the day he became famous in the ninja world, he has been tied to death with Konoha . Speaking of Konoha's powerhouses, Orochimaru is indispensable. When it comes to Konoha's shame, he is also indispensable.
The Holy Kingdom never expected that he would end up in the hands of Orochimaru, but whether this is a good thing or a bad thing is debatable.
Orochimaru glanced at the Holy Country, which was still silent, walked to the side of the machine, and after casually operating a few buttons, he said, "I have increased the input of healing substances, since your body is much tougher than I thought, then please recover as soon as possible!" With that, he left, turning off the lights before leaving, and the whole cave fell into darkness again.
After about four or five days in the dark, Orochimaru came again, this time with another person, a little guy who was only twelve or thirteen years old.
When Shengguo looked at this guy who was not a few years older than himself, he vaguely seemed to have seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
"Check his body, collect some of the materials used in the experiment, and try to get him better within ten days." Orochimaru commanded, and the white-haired guy pushed his eyes and nodded yes.
Orochimaru seems to be very busy, coming and going in a hurry several times, and rarely stays for too long.
Shengguo tilted his head to look at the white-haired guy, and the guy's smile was quite sunny. He walked to the edge of the platform, and a soft luster lit up in his palm, and pressed directly on the chest of the Holy Kingdom.
While feeling the slightest warmth, the holy country suddenly remembered that Takeshi Fujiwara, who was an orphan adopted by Takeshi Fujiwara, a medical ninja in the Konoha medical class, in Mt. Kikyo!
Didn't you say he was missing? How did you get mixed up with Orochimaru?
After a pause, he looked carefully into the eyes of the Holy Kingdom, and asked in a very ordinary, as if relaxed tone between friends, "Do you know me?" You told me through your eyes that you know me! ”
The aura on Yakushidou's body became strange, he was obviously laughing, but the Holy Kingdom felt his vigilance against him, and a trace of murderous aura.
What a very careful person!
Shengguo didn't intend to hide it, he nodded directly, "Yes, I know you." More than two years ago, a medical ninja named Takeshi Fujiwara approached me and asked me to help him find his child, a guy named Yakushidou. ”
The medicine master withdrew his palm, and his expression became a little more indifferent, "It turned out to be that troublesome guy, I said it!" He pushed his eyes again, turned to leave, and said as he walked, "Your injuries are recovering well, and you will be able to go to the ground in another week, so lie down well!" ”
The footsteps finally disappeared into the darkness, and the Holy Kingdom pouted, is this a revenge after revealing his identity? In fact, he didn't know that Yakushidou had already obtained enough materials from him for experiments, but he didn't know it yet. The nerve on the side of his chest was temporarily blocked, and a small piece of meat, about a tael or less, was cut off and held in the hands of the medicine man.
Just thinking that there was still a week to live with darkness and loneliness, the Holy Kingdom was somewhat helpless, so he could only close his eyes, hypnotize himself, and let himself spend these seven days in sleep.
After Yakushidou left the cave, he went directly through the dense underground cavern, and found the Great Snake Pill in a bright room.
He spread out his hand, placed a strip of flesh with skin in his hand in a vessel, and then operated a sharp knife to cut the strip into ten equal parts. These strips of meat will be used to experiment with some variations of a different nature, from which it will be possible to discern something that few people know about.
"Orochimaru-sama, he seems to be just an ordinary person, does he deserve so much attention?" , pushing away the microscope and placing the vessel containing the shredded meat in the groove, while dripping a few drops of purple liquid on it.
Orochimaru laughed twice, "You haven't seen it, so you won't believe that the kid who looks weak can actually attack and kill another Shangnin under the siege of two Shangnin." Although there are elements of stealth and surprise, even if this is the case, not everyone can do it. On top of that, he didn't use any ninjutsu, relying on an unknown power that I was interested in. ”
Yao Shidou was a little surprised, not only what the Holy Kingdom could do at this age, but more importantly, the last sentence of the Great Snake Pill was that the Holy Kingdom had an unknown power in its body. Yakushi Dou also became interested, as a multi-faceted spy and a follower of Orochimaru, he also understood how an unknown power that could defeat Chakra would bring changes to this world, so he immediately stopped saying more, and began to study the musculature of the Holy Kingdom.
Time can be fast or slow, and in the darkness it can become as long as winter. I don't know how many times I woke up and fell asleep, but finally the machine chirped again.
Yakushi Dou came over with a set of clothes, threw them to Shengguo, and helped him remove the tube from his body, "Although your body has not fully recovered, normal exercise should no longer be a problem. Also, I don't know what caused your injuries, but I need to warn you not to suffer that kind of injury for a short time, or you will die! ”
Shengguo sat up and changed into clothes, "I see, where to go now?" ”
"To meet Orochimaru-sama, of course!"
This is a very careful underground base, and there are holes everywhere that go in different directions, high or low, and if there is no one to lead the way, and there are no accurate construction drawings, I am afraid it is easy to get lost in this underground labyrinth.
After walking for about ten minutes, suddenly a terrible scream came from the dark hole in the distance, and the footsteps of the Holy Kingdom paused, and followed the footsteps of the medicine master.
As if he knew what the Holy Kingdom was thinking, the corner of the pharmacist's mouth twitched slightly, "Another one died." ”
The Holy Country didn't ask what "another one died", and Orochimaru had done some horrific human experiments in the research base inside Konoha Village, and almost everyone in Konoha Village knew about it. The so-called death of another one is nothing more than that in the process of human experiments, someone can't bear it.
In fact, falling into the hands of Orochimaru doesn't seem to be much different from falling into the hands of those cloud ninjas, and if you are not careful, you will become a corpse that cannot speak.
With all kinds of indescribable thoughts, I walked a little more and finally met Orochimaru.
Orochimaru was washing his hands, the color of a small basin of water had turned pink, Orochimaru was very calm at this time, as if he couldn't find the depression and decadence after the failure of the experiment on his face. He was even in the mood to tilt his head and smile to say hello to the Holy Kingdom, the life that disappeared before was not the same thing to him at all.
Murderous!
Shengguo Qiang held back the ** with his heart beating faster, walked to a place not far from Orochimaru, and bowed, "Thank you very much, Lord Orochimaru, for saving me from Yun Shinobi's hands, thank you very much!" ”
Orochimaru shook the water off his hands and laughed softly, "No thanks, it's great if you know what happened." I saved you from Yun Ren's hands, how are you going to repay me? ”
