CHAPTER XLVII
"We don't have any ill will!!" Xue Qiong raised his hands and shouted, "We just want to meet the people in charge here!" ”
The old man sneered and said, "I don't care if you have malicious intent... Anyway, the village chief has an order, and everyone who knows our true identity must die! Whether you're from the Void Ancestor family, or you don't know how to find out about this place, and you want to hire a killer..."
Hearing the old man's words, Xue Qiong thought for two seconds, and immediately said, "Oh? Is it because you all wash your hands? After a storm and a storm, you want to live in peace, so you have to kill even the messenger sent by your possible employer? But rest assured, we're not here to commission it..."
"Fuck you!!" It seems that this old man is really stubborn, and he doesn't eat Xue Qiong's set at all, "Tell me your true identities!" And you! Take off your cloak! ”
The old man was naturally referring to Minette, but Minette didn't seem to eat this, but was very arrogant and didn't mean to open the hood at all, but made a grimace at the old man, "Who are you?!" Seems to be hanging?! Let me pick it and I'll pick it? ”
As soon as Minette said this, the villagers who surrounded everyone immediately couldn't hold their faces.
A few villagers began to approach Minette, apparently trying to give her some color. But Minette is not a fuel-efficient lamp, although he is like a little kid by Xue Qiong's side, but he has learned a lot of fighting skills... She's a genius at it after all. So before the villagers could start to move, Minette had already preemptively struck and knocked out two people in a few blows. And with Minette's move, Xiao Yun, who usually spoils her very much, naturally couldn't stay, so she began to attack the people around her regardless of it.
Xue Qiong said that he couldn't beat it before, but it was because the energy reaction he saw in these people was very strong, and this should also be the kind of energy called "Chakra"... But this only shows that if these people are together, and if they launch ninjutsu from a distance, the three of them will definitely not be able to win, and it does not mean that their physical skills can beat Xiao Yun and Minette.
So for a while, Xiao Yun and Minette seemed to have a lot of upper hand, but Xue Qiong hurriedly began to pull the fight, because he noticed that two villagers had retreated some distance and began to seal...
During the fight, Minette was careless, and the cloak was torn off. And when the leading old man saw the pair of pointed ears and Minette's dark skin, he also hurriedly pulled up the fight.
The battle that was about to escalate has finally been suspended. The old man hurriedly asked, "Are you a dark elf?!" ”
"That's right! Do you have an opinion?! Minette said, crossing her waist.
The old man didn't have the heart to get angry at this time, and then asked urgently, "Is it the one we escaped?" Do you know them? ”
"Of course!" Minette was so angry at this time.
"Why didn't you say it earlier?!"
"You didn't ask!"
Minette and the old man stared at each other, and the old man only felt that she was so reasonable, clear in thinking, logically complete, and well-reasoned, and there was no room for refutation at all...
"What about faith?" The old man held out his hand.
Minette fumbled left and right in his clothes, and it took him a long time to find a brown paper envelope that was almost clumped into a ball of paper.
At this time, Xue Qiong and Xiao Yun had already covered their faces with their hands.
The old man's expression changed as soon as he saw the cinnabar painting on the envelope, and then he reflexively took a step back. After a delay of a few seconds, the other villagers also hurriedly retreated some distance, and did not forget to move their companions who had been put on the ground.
"What for?" Minette asked curiously, "What are you afraid of?" I'm not here to fight you, am I? ”
The old man was still staring at the envelope in Minette's hand, looking very nervous, gesticulating, and said carefully in a soft voice, "Uh... Listen to me, now gently lay the letter on the ground, and then step away a little as well..."
Minette hadn't reacted yet, but Xue Qiong and Xiaoyun had already thought of what was going on, so unconsciously, they also took a few steps back...
"You're really annoying!" Although Minette's tone was very unhappy, she still did it, and then retreated to the side of Xue Qiong and Xiaoyun.
"It's so dangerous..."The old man wiped the sweat from his head, and then shouted to the group of villagers, "It's all scattered!" By the way, go and invite your mother-in-law over... Fast! ”
It wasn't until the village chief's mother-in-law and the old man who came over unfolded the crumpled envelope little by little, and bit their fingertips, dripped a drop of blood on it, that the two old men breathed a sigh of relief, and Xue Qiong and the three finally knew what was going on.
The pattern drawn with cinnabar on the envelope is actually a unique encryption method among ninjas. That dead Uncle Yagi habitually manipulated this letter, and if the ban was lifted with the blood containing chakra, it could be opened safely, but if it was forcibly opened... It will turn into a detonator, and it will be a more powerful version.
Everyone present could understand Yagi's thoughts, after all, he was a relative in his hometown, and he definitely didn't want his village to be in danger because of his little obsession before he died... Although he still told Minette that he couldn't open the letter anyway until it was delivered.
But... To be honest, it's a miracle that it didn't explode like Minette. And after Minette knew about it, her first reaction was not to believe it, and she almost cried... Objectively speaking, Yagi did things very well, but Minette was still a child after all, and many things were unacceptable.
Time comes back to the present.
After reading the letter, the mother-in-law of the village chief of the ninja village put it aside and asked, "Those people who moved out back then... They're all dead now, aren't they? ”
"Hmm." Minet nodded, and although her mood was still a little low, she answered the question anyway, "Neupera, and the surrounding villages... There is no one left alive. ”
"Alas, it's all fate..."The village chief's mother-in-law hammered her thigh and said a little unwillingly. But she then asked Xue Qiong and the others, "So, do you want to join us?" Or is it just to inform us... The news? ”
When the village chief's mother-in-law asked this question, both Xue Qiong and Xiaoyun were prompted whether to accept the reinforcement task. But Xue Qiong decisively chose to refuse in less than a second, because he still didn't like the assassination profession of ninja with high physical fitness, and he still preferred to directly stab an unsuspecting opponent to death.
While Xue Qiong refused the task, she also looked at Xiao Yun, because he felt that this was still more suitable for her... But Xiao Yun also looked at it at the same time, and stuffed a piece of life crystal into his hand, which she got when she gave Luxie her first hug.
Xue Qiong laughed self-deprecatingly, returned the life crystals to Xiao Yun, and then asked Minette, "Minette, the two of us won't stay here, so what about your choice?" ”
Minette looked at Xue Qiong and Xiaoyun, and then at the village chief's mother-in-law, who was patiently waiting for them to make a choice, after a long silence... He nodded.
After Minette's apprenticeship, the village chief's mother-in-law said that the ninjas in their village had sworn a poisonous oath that they would never let anyone who was not a ninja stay alive in the village for the night... Xue Qiong and Xiaoyun didn't care much about this kind of thing, but Minette was a little reluctant when they separated, and even almost wanted to regret it.
Xue Qiong smiled and said, "At this time, do you remember what I said to you?" Think about it, which sentence should it be? ”
Minette's eyes were completely moist, "Choice, you must persevere, otherwise it will be a betrayal of yourself... A man may betray anyone, but he cannot betray himself..."
Xiao Yun patted Minette on the head and said happily, "It's very good, I remember everything." So, let's go~"
After speaking, Xiao Yun took Xue Qiong's arm, and the two left the ninja village together, without looking back... It's just that Xue Qiong has to find a way to wipe away the tears on Xiaoyun's face without being noticed by others at such a cool time.
After leaving the ninja village for some distance, the two took out their motorcycles and drove some distance in the direction of returning to Su Lan, and the sky was already dark. So the two of them set up camp, lit a fire, and slept in a step-by-step manner... It's just that this night, Xiao Yun suddenly became very crazy, and it wasn't until the middle of the moon that Xue Qiong could sleep well, Xiao Yun next to him hugged his arm tightly, and he didn't know when there were tears on his face.
Nothing was said all night.
The next morning, Xue Qiong woke up according to the strict biological clock, but in a daze, she suddenly felt a little... Not used to it.
Because Xiao Yun is now a vampire physique, her whole body is cold, so after Xue Qiong sleeps with Xiao Yun, she often wakes up with cramps or colds because of this.
But when Xue Qiong woke up that day, she found that there was nothing in the bed except her own body temperature, and it was extremely warm. And it's this warmth that makes him feel very unaccustomed, and he always feels...
Xue Qiong was excited, so she turned over and jumped up, and she didn't even have time to put on her clothes. ran out and opened the curtain of the tent, only to see the sidecar with a heavy machine gun parked outside, and Xiaoyun's figure... No.
Stirred by the cold wind, Xue Qiong calmed down, went back to the tent to put on his clothes, lit a cigarette, and then next to the futon, he saw a note pressed by the crystals of life.
"Senior: I suddenly found that my points are just enough for seven thousand~ I can go back! And two more days won't be enough, I don't want to kill people these days ... So I went back first! Senior, you also go to see the bald uncle and come back, that's it~"
There were very few words on the note, and Xue Qiong read it in a few seconds. Then he laughed mockingly, and said to himself, "It's just going back, there's no need to leave the life crystal... It's all too obvious. ”
