Chapter 59: He's Laughing
The endless desert is like a golden ocean with rolling waves, high and low. The wind in the distance swept up the sand waves and slapped on the person's body, if it were not for the layer of clothing, it would definitely hurt and hurt.
Compared with the green trees and bustling waterwheels in the Land of Fire, the environment of the Land of Wind is diametrically opposed, with scarce vegetation, desolate areas, and scarce water sources for survival.
Of course, the harshness of the environment is not only reflected in these aspects, such as the shadowy sandstorm, the high-level quicksand of the hidden index, and dealing with the things brought by these terrain differences is also one of the problems that this group of ninjas from the Fire Nation need to overcome.
The ruins barely block the wind and sand, and the earth-colored tents blend in with the surrounding environment, and are arranged in a neat and orderly manner.
In one of the humble tents, the voices of men and women alternated, as if they were discussing and arguing.
"Senior, it's not okay to go on like this, shouldn't we choose to retreat?" With his familiarity with the terrain, Sand Shinobi successfully cut off the supplies behind Konoha once, and now the herbs and food on Konoha are about to run out, and the next support has been sent, but at this time, they are almost unable to hold on.
Qimu Shuomao crossed his hands and raised his sword eyebrows, without too much explanation, and said only one word in a deep voice, "Wait!" ”
"Wait? But there are more and more injured and poisoned people on our side, and if we wait any longer, they will only have one result...... "It is difficult for a Qiao woman to cook without rice, even if her medical level is high, it is in vain if she does not have herbs to make an antidote, so Tsunade doesn't care about the identity of the other party, and his tone is suddenly tough."
There was a slight silence, and Qimu Shuomao glanced at her, "It's not that simple, they won't let us retreat like this." ”
The sand swept up by the wind hit the surface of the tent, rubbing and rolling down, and Tsunade narrowed his eyes and said with a look on his face, "You mean, they want to drag us here?" ”
Nodding his head, he said, "That's right, haven't you noticed that they haven't come out much recently?" ”
That's true, that's right, after a few words of mention, Tsunade himself understood after a little thought.
Although it was a hot summer day, Tsunade's heart was cold. She understood that the sand ninja didn't even give them a chance to fight the trapped beasts, and she could imagine how many of their companions' blood would be sprinkled on the way if they retreated.
After realizing all this, she had to admit in her heart that the white-haired man in front of her was much farther than she thought, and the Konoha White Tooth Fruit was indeed not in vain.
"So what now?" Seeing through is not the same as cracking, even if they understand the other party's purpose, the situation is still extremely disadvantaged.
"Sand Shinobi doesn't want to lose too much, their purpose is to trap us here until we run out of strength, and then they will come out. Breaking through now is our best chance, but I don't recommend it, because it would cost at least half of our companions here.
My thoughts actually coincide with the sand ninja, they have their means, and we are not purely sitting idly by. Wait for the next batch of Konoha supplies to arrive, I'll already send the news back, and the delivery team must be on the way now. ”
"But, what if Sand Shinobi intercepts and kills again......" Tsunade's mind rang from time to time with the words that White Fang had just said, puzzled.
“…… You're right, but this time the team is a little different, and that shouldn't happen! Qimu Shuomao pulled out the white blade in his hand, showing a row of neat teeth, and smiled brightly******* the continuous sound of rain in the land of rain, and the country of wind was more than equal, and the friction between the sand and the tent harmoniously played a music that people would be tired of listening to for a long time.
Such windy and sandy weather can last all day, and if you don't use a cloth to cover your mouth and nose when you go out, then it is inevitable to eat a few mouthfuls of sand.
In the desert, a single person's wounded room is nothing more than a simple earth retreat. There's a bed in it, and a couple of kettles are all there is to it.
At this moment, a black-haired man with a fair face wearing a Konoha shinobi uniform was lying flat on the bed, staring straight at the top of the tent in a daze, with a hint of weakness and helplessness in his golden pupils.
At this time, there was a little less haze on Orochimaru's body, and a little more steady, and there was more indescribable bearing than before, and he seemed to have a faint demeanor of a general.
And his mind was thinking about the current situation.
Konoha is already at a disadvantage, and the previous injury suddenly broke out in the battle with the Ichi-Tai human pillar force not long ago, although he was desperately saved by his teammates, but the collapse of the situation was devastating. There is no guilt, the disadvantage is inevitable, all he can think of now is retreat, this battle is no longer fought, White Fang and Tsunade alone are not enough to support this war to the end, if that idiot is still there, the situation is not like this, it's just that that idiot is still doing stupid things that people can't understand in the Land of Rain.
Hehe, son of prophecy, what a stupid teammate, thinking of the big snake pill here smiled helplessly, he is really not the same as the other party!
But without him, maybe this time it really would be over here! The pain in his chest and back was a stark reminder of this.
At this moment, his mind couldn't help but think of that figure again, his disciple who knew how to measure things very well. The news came that his injuries had improved, which was one of the few pieces of good news, so it didn't matter much if he didn't turn around.
Of course, if possible, he still wants to do his best to accomplish it, which is in a sense, it is also his dream.
As a teacher, Orochimaru actually has an appreciative attitude towards Lu Ming, yes, he appreciates smart people, not that kind of stupid person. There will not be too many scruples and obstacles in the communication between their master and apprentice, and the next sentence can be understood without saying the other party, which is even more ideal than imagined. However, he was only very confused about one thing, that is, why could a teenager in his teens give him such feelings, even if it was between Mr. Ape Fei and him, it would not necessarily reveal more, right?
It's a bit like a young body inhabited by an old soul, but this is a joke in his heart, this kind of ninjutsu he is studying but has not yet paid attention to it!
If it takes more than ten years, what kind of height will he reach, I really look forward to it, and people don't want to die here!
Before anyone heard it, the corners of his mouth were raised, and a familiar voice outside had already entered his ears.
"Orochimaru, I'm in, I've got something to tell you!" Tsunade who lifted the curtain glanced at it casually, and then saw a stunned expression on her face, and after rubbing her eyes, she didn't speak for a long time.
The man lying on the bed looked as if he was ...... Laugh...... Right? Tsunade looked at it with some unassertive thoughts in his heart.
