In a wooden house in a small village in the mountains.

Before going out, the man lit the lantern hanging in his hand, which was made of oil boiled from animals hunted in the mountains, which was brighter and cleaner than a kerosene lamp, but the dim light could barely illuminate a third foot on such a night, and it was difficult to see farther away.

Coming outside, there seemed to be a cold air coming to his face, and the man showed a hint of annoyance, such a season is already cold, not to mention the village built here surrounded by dense forests, the cold is even worse, but there is no way, as the core of the entire village, the 'star' still needs someone to patrol and guard.

"Hey, it's so cold today." On the other side, the chubby man opened the door and walked out trembling with a lamp, locking the door while still complaining about the cold weather.

"Yes, but you should hurry up, I'll be scolded again when it's too late." The man laughed and teased the slightly chubby man.

"Got it, got it, I've got to put the child to sleep first." Speaking of his precious son, the chubby man's face showed the joy of becoming a father for the first time.

The man smiled and looked up at the night sky, the moon was hidden and the stars were sparse, and a few inconspicuous stars dotted the vast and magnificent night sky, just like the usual night sky.

"Alright, alright, cheer up." After speaking, he headed towards his destination without looking back.

The slightly chubby man pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "It won't be good if it's a minute or two late, and that star ......"

"Hey, don't say it anymore......" Before the other party's words could be spoken, the man directly cut off the topic that the other party wanted to continue, straightened his forehead, and said helplessly, "Let's go!" ”

"Hi, hi." The slightly chubby man replied indifferently.

The two men were silent and began to walk towards the location of the 'star'.

The darkness of the night enveloped the village silently, and no sound could be heard except for the footsteps of two men and the occasional whistling mountain wind.

The dark night road was accompanied by two dim butter lamps, and the two calmly shuttled back and forth on this daily back and forth path.

The wind on the road is getting stronger and stronger, and the slightly chubby man tightens the cotton clothes on his body, and the wind on this road will suddenly become very strong due to the terrain, but it will gradually ease after a short distance.

The attitude that the two are accustomed to also proves that such patrols are a daily routine.

Not long after, a huge semi-circular depression appeared in the field of vision of the two, a simple small wooden building in the middle of the forest, as for why the wooden building was built in such a low terrain, mainly because this is the first time the 'star' was discovered when the fall point, of course, there are also some old people in the village, they firmly advocate that the 'star' must be enshrined here.

However, there is a great disadvantage of building here, that is, every time it rains, the small wooden building will be flooded by rainwater, and the 'star' needs to be temporarily transferred, and it will take several days to wait for the water to dry up and recede, and the process is extremely troublesome.

Fortunately, the climate here is close to the land of earth, and the rain is not abundant, so if it is replaced by the country of rain, they might as well build a water loft directly.

"Are you going down?" The man asked.

"No, you can go by yourself, I'm much more comfortable standing here than standing inside." The slightly chubby man frowned, showing an extremely obvious disgust for the 'star' cherished in the village, an undisguised disgust in front of the man.

The man didn't force it, and walked alone towards the wooden building that emitted a faint light.

The distance was getting closer, and the lights were getting brighter and brighter, but the light was not very attractive, but made his pace slow down.

When he stood at the door, the man sighed, just standing at the door, he could already feel the oppressive aura inside, his eyes flashed purple, and he stepped forward in a few steps.

With a bang, the wooden door was pushed open, and under the light, in the central stand of the room, a stone that could be held with one hand on the wooden dragon claw was quietly placed on it, and there was a faint purple qi circulating around it.

Its uneven surface bears out evidence of its efforts to traverse the atmosphere, and yes, that's why their Star Ninja Village is called Star Ninja Village, and it's also a treasure that can have a powerful amplification of chakra.

There was no reluctance, the wooden door closed again, the man turned around and walked in the direction he came, only seeing the 'star' with his own eyes was half of his task, this is what he asked of himself.

"Is that thing still there?" The slightly chubby man saw the other party coming up and laughed.

The man didn't speak, just looked at the slightly chubby man, silently lit a cigarette, turned to look at the night sky, was silent or didn't know how to answer, and the faint smell of smoke drifted away with the wind for a while.

The chubby man continued with a smile, "Hehe, I'm surprised, since this 'star' is a treasure, why aren't those big ninjas next to him excited?" Why don't you come and grab it? ”

Without waiting for the other party to speak, he continued, "There are two real situations, the first is that they don't look down on this 'star' and don't bother to grab it, this is the first one; The second is that they may be able to see it, but they are afraid of face and are lazy to grab it, but they are just looking at it, which is dispensable, and I won't talk about the third one, because it is impossible! ”

"Hoshino!" The man shook off the ashes of his cigarette and said, "Enough, don't say any more." ”

"Don't you know how many people are in the village now, because this thing has become sick? If nothing else, just talk about yourself, isn't there a little discomfort? The chubby man known as Hoshino said with a little emotion.

"Shusuke, come with me to persuade the three generations of Hosagekage!"

"Let me think about it again......" The man began to waver a little, because what the other party said was indeed the truth, a fact that could not be refuted.

"Toshio, Tetsuya, and Yamazaki have all said hello, and now it's up to you."

The man was slightly stunned, I see, have all the people who have completed the cultivation of the Peacock Mystic Method been convinced?

Also, the disadvantages of the 'star' are so obvious, who can't see it, they are actually just for the glory of the village, but when this kind of thing happens to their descendants, it will be difficult for these people to maintain the same ideals and enthusiasm as they did at the beginning.

"Okay, when?"

"Tomorrow morning."

"Yes." The man nodded, accepting.

It's a relief to put it down.

The man turned his head and looked at the attic with the 'star' in his eyes, feeling a little strange, and the depression disappeared......

The man suddenly turned his head in disbelief and said, "It's you...... Looking for someone to steal it? ”

They are very sensitive to the aura of the 'star', especially for people like them who have completed the cultivation of the Peacock Mystic Method, the 'star' is simply a dazzling guiding light, even such a dark night cannot resist the light it emits, but at this time, he clearly felt that the wooden house was empty, and there was no star aura around.

The slightly chubby man shook the fat on his face and shook his head in dismay, and said with a wry smile, "I say it's not me now, do you believe it......" [.]
