Chapter 223 Escort

Standing in the Hokage's office again, the atmosphere was a little subtle, after all, it was a very embarrassing thing, but fortunately, Sarutobi had experienced too much in his life, and he quickly resolved this embarrassment with a smile. Instead of sitting behind his desk this time, he stood up and walked over to the Holy Kingdom to encourage him and comfort the others. The first time I went out on a mission, I encountered two S-level rebels, and I almost fought, if this fear can't be dissipated, it is very likely to become a residual shadow in the hearts of children, which will affect their lives.

In the same way, if you can make good use of this despair, you can turn this despair into a kind of motivation, a motivation to break free from being manipulated.

"Since you were able to complete your mission last time, this time it's a C-level mission." Ape Flying Sun Slash took one out of the mountain of scrolls on the table and placed it in Asma's hand.

Asma opened the scroll in front of the ape flying sun, and a big C on it relieved the moonlight blast behind him, Mina felt that it didn't matter, the little girl was a little confused, as if the previous events had not left any traces in his heart at all.

The specifics of the mission are not complicated, escorting the employer from Konoha Village to the Daimyo Mansion, and then escorting them to Tanokuni. There is nothing special about the identities of these employers, according to the identity information they provide, they are all grain merchants in Tanokuni, and they have a certain status and fame in Tanokuni. Their itinerary is very tight, but fortunately, the road is quite safe, especially from Konoha Village to the Daimyo's Mansion, there are many temporary strongholds of Konoha Village on the way, and there are still many ninjas stationed in the Daimyo's Mansion to collect information for the Ninja Village.

Asma glanced at the faces of the three members of the team after reading the scroll, and seeing that everyone had no expressions of refusal, he nodded and took the task.

"When they arrive at the border of Tanokuni, they will be greeted by someone, and after the employer is handed over to them, you can come back." Ape Feiri patted Shengguo's shoulder, looked at Asma and said, "Be careful on the road!" ”

After leaving the Hokage's office, a few people saw their employer for this mission at the door of the village, three men and one woman, very ordinary, not like some kind of big man, at least not from their temperament. Of course, this may also have something to do with the fact that Tanokuni is a small country. It is said that Tanokuni established a sound ninja village last year and began to train ninjas, which really made many forces feel incredible.

The country itself does not have a strong national power, and it does not need to have high-end military force, as the vast plain area, the biggest economic pillar of the country is food. Almost two-thirds of the grain produced in the land of the land goes to the land of fire, and one-third goes to the country of iron. It's a very peaceful and peaceful small country, and it hasn't had any diplomatic disputes with any country, so everyone thinks that it's completely unnecessary for Tanokuni to make a sound ninja village.

But whether it's really unnecessary or not, the Sound Ninja Village has already been established.

The woman of the four was probably the most important person, and she could feel that the other three were vaguely accommodating to her.

"You're the ninja who escorted us home this time, aren't you? I've heard that some of you are very powerful, so I'm sorry that I need to take the trouble to escort us to a short distance. The man's attitude was very satisfying, and he didn't feel slighted at all because there were three and a half children among the ninjas escorting. Konoha Village has always been full of talents, and being a young man does not necessarily mean being weak.

After the man finished speaking, he introduced to everyone, his name was Zhengyin, and the other two men, one tall and one short, were the Saito brothers, and the ordinary-looking woman was called Uesugi Shuri. In Zhengyin's introduction, they are all merchants of the Land of Fields, and this time they came to the Land of Fire to seek development, and now that the matter is over, they need to return to the Land of Fields, but considering that they are all ordinary people, in case of any situation along the way, it is difficult to parry, so they have to hire ninjas from Konoha Village to escort them.

Saying that, he also praised Asma and the class he led, and almost said that they were invincible in the world, and even Mina, who was a little slow to react, blushed embarrassedly.

It's so ashamed to be praised like this, but I don't know why I have inexplicable joy!

Zhengyin and the others hired two carriages in the village, after all, there was indeed a short way to go from Konoha Village to Tanokuni. It may not be a big problem for ninjas in terms of physique and physical strength, but for ordinary people, it is still a long way away without the help of a carriage.

The two carriages, one in front and one behind, immediately galloped down the road after leaving Konoha Village, Moonlight Wind sat on the carriage of the carriage, and Asma sat next to the coachman of the carriage behind, galloping along the road one after the other.

After the incident of the Great Wall of Heaven, Konoha Village combed through the major cities and near the main roads, and there was basically no wind and grass on the road from Konoha Village to the Daimyo's Mansion, and it was safe and sound. After arriving at the Daimyo's Mansion, Shoein and Suzune disappeared for a day, and did not let Asma accompany them, saying that they believed in the security of the Daimyo's Mansion. The next day, I continued on the road. Before going on the road, Zhengyin's face changed slightly, and he was a little more dignified than when he was in Konoha Village, but he didn't say anything, and everyone didn't want to ask much, after all, it was just an escort mission.

When the two cars finally arrived at the border of the land of fire and the land of Tian after almost ten days of travel, something went wrong. The original plan was that someone should come to greet the four of them and escort them back to the territory of Tanokuni, but for some reason, looking at the empty Great Plains, it seemed that something was not quite right.

It stands to reason that the mission of escorting them here is over, but Asma thinks it is better to wait. The border is not as good as the territory, and many people with complex identities operate on the border all year round, including some bandits and bandits who move everywhere, some wandering ninjas, and many wild beasts. Leaving these four guys here, even if they are not plundered by those people, will become food for the belly of the beast.

And so it was three days.

On the evening of the third day, the sun set much faster in late autumn than in summer, and it was already completely dark at just after six o'clock. In the leeward of a small earthen bag on the border, a bonfire was lit and sat on either side around it. Everyone was eating silently, bubbling in the small iron pot on the bonfire, and a strong fragrance came out of the pot.

"Mr. Zhengyin, I wonder how many days it will take for the people who came to greet you to arrive?" Asma broke the silence as she nibbled on a soft toasted cake and a fragrant mushroom soup.

I'll update it after I get home and rest for a day,,, it's really a lot of business trips
