Li Xiao: "Let us closely unite around the village committee centered on the leader Nagato, hold high the great banner of 'characteristic rain ninja doctrine', adhere to the ***** development program, vigorously develop the ninja power of Yu Ninja Village to ensure both speed and quality, and strive to build Yu Ninja Village into a moderately developed ninja village after the two five-year plans, and after the five five-year plans, build Yu Ninja Village into a powerful ninja village that is enough to compete with the five major ninja villages." Comrades, friends and compatriots from all walks of life in Yuren Village, this year is the year of departure, this year is the year of hard work, and this year is the year of reform. Thank you! ”

After Li Xiao's speech, thunderous applause immediately rang out in the venue, Li Xiao bowed, and then sat back in his place.

After the end of the first village congress of Yunin Village, the participants left the venue, and after Li Xiao returned to the lounge, the heart that had been hanging in his throat could finally be put down, and it was the first time to speak in front of so many people on such an important occasion, Li Xiao was still a little nervous. He breathed a long sigh of relief, turned around and asked Su Xiaoxiao: "When I spoke just now, I didn't say anything wrong, right?" ”

Su Xiaoxiao stretched out two white jade hands, rubbed Li Xiao's shoulders as a reward, and said with a smile: "No, what you said is very good, but you really wrote this manuscript yourself?" I think it's a shame that you don't take the civil service exam, and I have the illusion that I heard half of it, and I thought I was watching a news broadcast. ”

Li Xiao smiled: "I really had the idea of taking the civil service exam before. ”

Nagato and Xiao Nan walked out of the venue behind Li Xiao, and Nagato limped in front of Li Xiao with a cane, and said very happily: "Xiao, your speech is very good and impressive. ”

Li Xiao scratched his hair a little embarrassed, and laughed: "Nagato, you have won the prize." ”

At this time, a ninja from Rain Ninja Village hurriedly walked into the lounge, walked quickly to Nagato's side, and whispered to Nagato: "My lord, there is a strange ninja at the gate of the village, claiming to be the envoy of Konoha Village. ”

"Envoy?" Nagato frowned slightly in confusion.

Li Xiao was also slightly taken aback and asked, "Konoha's envoy?" Did the other party report their names? ”

Yushinobu thought about it for a moment and replied, "Yes, the other party calls himself Nara Shikamaru, and he also carries Konoha forehead protection. ”

"Shikamaru!" Li Xiao shouted softly in surprise.

"What? Xiao, do you know this person? Nagato looked at Li Xiao suspiciously.

Li Xiao laughed happily: "I don't know each other, but I've heard of it, if the other party is really Nara Shikamaru, then the identity of this Konoha envoy should also be real, in short, let's meet each other first." ”

"Hmm." Nagato nodded, turned his head to Yushinobu and ordered, "You bring the other party to me immediately." ”

"Yes, sir." Yu Ren got the order, turned around and just wanted to leave, but Li Xiao suddenly stopped him.

"Wait a minute." Li Xiao stopped Yunin, and then said to Nagato. "I'll go meet each other, so it seems that we are more sincere."

"I'm going too, and I just want to meet Shikamaru too!" Su Xiaoxiao, like Li Xiao, couldn't help but be a little excited at the thought of seeing the living Nara Shikamaru right away.

Nagato smiled: "That's better, I'll bother you." ”

Leaving the village government tower of Yunin Village, Li Xiao and Su Xiaoxiao hurried to the gate of Yunin Village, Li Xiao saw from a distance that under the guard of the two Yunin, Nara Shikamaru was standing at the gate of Yunin Village with an unhappy face.

Shikamaru is exactly the same as in the anime, with black hair tied back at the back of his head, a clean forehead, and a Konoha ninja's signature green vest on his upper body, with a forehead guard wrapped around his left arm, always putting on a negative expression as if the whole world owes him money.

"Hey, I said you two, can you not look at me with such obvious distrust, is this how the Rain Ninja Village receives guests?" Shikamaru complained to the two rain shinobi in front of him.

In the face of Shikamaru's complaints, the two Yushinobi did not say a word, still maintaining a high degree of vigilance against Shikamaru and ready to enter the battle at any time. Rain Ninja Village is a conservative and closed village, and few outsiders visit it except in times of war, so the ninjas of Rain Ninja Village are very cautious of outsiders. Especially in the ninja war that year, Konoha Village was still one of the happiest ninja villages in the Land of Rain.

Seeing that the two rain shinobi were still indifferent, Shikamaru sighed helplessly: "So, I'm not willing to take on this task, it's really troublesome." Then, Shikamaru suddenly noticed Li Xiao and Su Xiaoxiao who were hurrying towards this side, Shikamaru thought for a moment and said to himself. It seems that someone who can communicate normally has finally arrived. ”

Seeing the living Shikamaru, Li Xiao's face couldn't help but smile, he directly crossed the two rain ninja guards, came to Shikamaru, and said loudly with great enthusiasm: "Welcome to the rain ninja village, forgive me for taking the liberty of being presumptuous, you are Konoha's envoy, Nara Shikamaru." ”

Shikamaru didn't expect the person to be so enthusiastic, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised, after all, he had just been given a cold shoulder by two rain ninja guards. At this time, the two rain ninja guards recognized Li Xiao's appearance, and immediately bowed respectfully, shouting, "My lord." ”

Seeing the reaction of the two rain ninja guards, Shikamaru immediately had a preliminary position in his heart for the smiling young man in front of him: It seems that this person's status in the rain ninja is not low.

"Hello, I'm Konoha's envoy, Nara Shikamaru, who I haven't asked you yet?" Shikamaru smiled politely and stretched out his hand to Li Xiao.

"I am the deputy director of the village committee of Yuren Village, Li Xiao." Li Xiao also stretched out his hand and shook it tightly with Shikamaru.

As soon as Shikamaru heard Li Xiao's name, he was immediately confused: "Deputy director? ”

"It's a title, don't care." Li Xiao smiled and waved his hand.

Peggy was strange and asked in Li Xiao's mind, "Why don't you explain to Lumaru what this deputy director means?" ”

Li Xiao replied indifferently in his heart: "I'm too lazy to explain." ”

Peggy: "......"

Then Su Xiaoxiao also greeted Shikamaru: "Hello, I'm Su Xiaoxiao." ”

Shikamaru responded politely: "Hello. ”

Li Xiao looked behind Shikamaru and confirmed that there was only one person in Shikamaru, Li Xiao couldn't help but be a little strange: "Are you alone?" Konoha is really relieved of you, aren't you Konoha generally in groups of three? ”

Shikamaru smiled: "I'm the only one on this visit." ”

Although Li Xiao was very curious about where Shikamaru's teammates Ino and Ding Ji had gone, he didn't dwell on this issue, and asking too much detail would make Shikamaru suspicious. Li Xiao stepped aside for Shikamaru and stretched out his hand to make a "please" gesture: "Please come with me, Nagato, the leader of our rain ninja, is waiting for you." ”

Li Xiao and Su Xiaoxiao brought Shikamaru to Nagato's office, Nagato represented Yunin, Shikamaru represented Konoha, and the two sides had a frank and fruitful meeting, the focus of the meeting was on the "normalization of exchanges" between the two ninja villages, although Nagato and Konoha both hoped to form an alliance, but there was still a long way to go before the alliance was formed.

After the meeting, Shikamaru took the initiative to make a request to Nagato: "I want to meet Jiraiya-sama." ”

"Oh, of course you can." Nagato sat behind his desk and looked at Li Xiao, who was sitting in the corner of the office and listening to the whole process. "Xiao, I'll leave this matter to you, can you take Mr. Nara to see Jiraiya-sensei?"

Li Xiao stood up: "No problem, originally I also planned to visit Zilaiye today." ”

Nagato: "That's great, I still have some things here, so I won't go, so I'll say hello to Mr. Jiraiya on my behalf." ”

So, after saying goodbye to Nagato, Li Xiao and Su Xiaoxiao took Lu Maru to the hospital where they were recuperating from their injuries, and as soon as the three of them walked into the courtyard of the hospital, they saw a white-haired old man running from a distance in a panic. Li Xiao took a closer look and was suddenly shocked: Isn't this Zilaiye? Seeing him look so flustered, is something wrong?!
