Chapter 22: The Valley of the Wild Goose
The sunlight was dappled, and most of the morning rain and dew were evaporated, and some were hidden in the cracks of the leaves, swaying and falling drop by drop as people moved.
There were unknown birds chirping, and trees chirping deeper into the valley. It was close to noon, and the earth outside had been cracked by the scorching sun. In the valley, however, it shows the freshness of early spring, and the cool breeze blows through with the breeze, which lifts everyone's spirits.
Carrying a wooden basket on his back, Moren followed the gathering team in the same footsteps.
His footwork is very rhythmic, and he rarely steps on potholes, as if he grew up in the Wild Goose Valley since he was a child, and he is very familiar with everything around him.
The leader of the team is a ninja with a two-star badge, named Frontier Jingjun, he is one of the ten star ninjas in the frontline camp, and he was the one who went to Dayan Valley last time. Although he is the leader of the gathering team, he is not in charge of the collection. His main mission is to lead nine ninjas to set up alert traps around the valley for any possible crisis.
To put it simply, there are ten of them, that is, the ninja ten, who are in charge of fighting.
Since entering the Wild Goose Valley, Mo Lun has not seen any birds and beasts along the way, of course, the birds and beasts referred to here are not small birds and rabbits, but those strange beasts that are threatening to people and even ninjas.
Seeing everyone hurrying silently, Mo Lun didn't ask too much and followed honestly.
At first, looking out from the high slope outside the valley, Dayan Valley is just an ordinary valley with huge peaks split, and it feels very secluded. However, it wasn't until he entered the valley that he discovered an anomaly as he hurried through the morning.
In one morning, with the distance of Mo Lun beyond the footsteps of ordinary people, let alone the valley within a giant peak, even the entire mountain peak should have walked a circle, but the truth is not.
They seem to be still in the outer valley of the Wild Goose Valley!
This valley has a cave, and it doesn't simply exist between a mountain peak.
but
Mo Lun jumped onto a big tree, looked at the valley with no end in sight, and suddenly remembered the execution time mentioned when he accepted the mission: 3~7 days.
Originally, I thought that it was because of the difficulty of collecting or the large number of collections, so it took all this time, but now that I think about it, the distance is the key.
The ninja's feet are naturally faster than Morun's, if it weren't for the possible crisis all the way, Morun would have been dumped a long time ago, and naturally he would not be qualified to accept the task of collecting.
Half a day later.
Jumping down the hill, they came to a suspension bridge, a dangerous bridge connected by four iron chains and made of wooden planks.
The bridge is long and shrouded in gray mist, with no view of the opposite bank.
Here, Qianqian Jingjun raised his hand and motioned for everyone to stop. He glanced at a male ninja with pigtails, who nodded, and stepped out of the crowd, squatting slightly with his hands sealed.
Morren looked out, and Rising began to record the video.
Seals are a knowledge that ninjas must master, including pure body ninjas.
Most of the forbearance methods have a corresponding way of sealing. It doesn't have to be a mudra, or it doesn't even have to be a human body to perform a seal. There are ninjas who can use the natural energy that is ubiquitous in heaven and earth, and through the influence of Zoro in their bodies, they can produce various seals out of thin air.
There are also a very small number of ninjas, who have a special bloodline, and do not need to go through any seal casting when casting specific ninja methods, and in their bloodline, they innate contain the seal methods of these specific ninja methods, and they can instantly cast powerful secret ninja methods and kill people in an instant.
This kind of ninjutsu has a general name: blood inheritance ninjutsu - refers to the power inherited from the bloodline.
Of course, this ninja with pigtails is not a blood heir, he is a sentient ninja. There are four main types of perceptual ninjas: first, ninjas who master prophecy, second, gifted perceptual ninjas (also known as 'crisis sense ninjas'), third, yin-yang hexagram derivators, and fourth, climate powers.
The first type is that ninjas who have mastered the prophecy art can be cultivated, and the accuracy is related to the prophecy art they are learning, and the cultivation time is long, so it is the first choice for most countries, including the grass and the country of durian. The origin of prophecy is mysterious, and there are countless legends and myths, which cannot be investigated. Like many myths and legends, there are many types of prophecy, and the accuracy naturally varies. Not to mention the witches and gods who are spread among ordinary ninjas, or the folk gods chattering. To be able to be selected by a country and used to cultivate one's own prophecy technique, of course, it has been tested and its accuracy has been recognized, just like the ninja with pigtails in the collection team!
The second type is the talent-aware ninja, this type of ninja does not necessarily have Zoro, but they are born with a strange sense of all kinds of bad luck, and their intuition is sometimes more accurate than that of ninjas who have practiced prophecy all their lives, and they can even explore obstacles, reminisce about the past, and penetrate the future and other incredible abilities. These ninjas are the rarest, and even if they do appear occasionally, they will leave on their own. Once you practice prophecy, you will become a terrifying great prophet, and those who are advanced can suppress the fortunes of the country and peep into the heavens and the earth.
The third category, the Yin-Yang Hexagram derives people, the Yin-Yang Hexagram is transmitted from ancient times, it is the oldest and most difficult type of arithmetic, it covers the widest, and even counts everything. Originally, they were not included in the ranks of perceptual ninjas, because the derivation people were not ninjas at all, they were born with Zhuoluo, and the yin-yang hexagram technique they mastered was not ninjutsu, but a mysterious algorithm. However, due to the high degree of difficulty, to this day, some ninjas who have mastered the Yin-Yang Hexagram have simplified it and turned it into an arithmetic that can also be learned by ordinary ninjas, which deduces the possible changes that may occur in the next action according to the changes in the environment, the development of things, and the combination of prophecy, with little deviation. Because the difficulty is still high, this type of sentient ninja is only a little more than a gifted sentient ninja. As for the derivation of the complete Yin and Yang hexagrams, there are very few, and even if there are, they are the core secrets hidden by some countries and families.
The fourth category, climate powers, are mostly ninjas who perceive large events, and are commonly found in climate, disasters and other drastic changes that can rewrite the world pattern. This kind of ninja has a strong sense of the overall situation, and most of them are high-level figures, and they are the abilities that must be mastered by the ninja of a country and the patriarch of the family. It is included in the fourth category because this type of sentient ninja can be transplanted, including the senses of humans and alien beasts, all of which are transplanted. Some rare transformational ninjutsu, psychic beasts, Gu worms, etc. can be counted, and they are the most numerous, perceptual ninjas that are of little use in ordinary times.
The suspension bridge was shrouded in fog, and there was no one in their group who could see through the thick fog, which was often an excellent location for enemy ambushes. As the captain, Frontier Jingjun is naturally not the kind of careless person, he asked everyone to stand on guard, waiting for the results of the perception of the pigtailed ninja.
The pigtailed ninja is called Hateful, majoring in prophecy for ten years, although he is not a few powerful figures in the grass and durian country, but the overall ranking, the prophecy confirmation rate is also within the top fifty. He can prophesy three times a day, and each prophecy has to meditate for five minutes, and as the prophecy is completed, some vague images, illusions, and other signs will appear in his mind, and he has to distinguish the good fortune from these images and illusions. If the team is ambushed in the near future, and the team is in danger of being destroyed, then there will be a strange picture of blood red, dark clouds rolling, and so on.
Of course, if the ambusher himself has advanced prophecy and directly conceals his existence from being predicted at will, then the images and illusions that he can see will change, and the difficulty of prophecy will increase, and the difficulty of discerning will increase.
Five minutes later, Liang opened his eyes and nodded at Jingjun at the front line.
Seeing this, Qianqian Jingjun waved to everyone and motioned to follow, but asked everyone to stay on guard. Even if it is a prophecy technique, there is a high probability of failure or misjudgment, a qualified captain will not blindly trust the perception ninja, but judge according to their own experience, they believe in their own ability, and this is also the fundamental factor for them to become the captain.
Moren let Rising scan his surroundings, the fog cutting off his vision, but if there were ninjas ambushed on the suspension bridge, he should be able to catch some traces by the chip.
The suspension bridge was very long, and the group walked slowly on alert, but until they reached the opposite bank, they did not encounter any attack.
It's strange that after crossing the bridge, there is no fog on this side as on the other side, and it seems that these gray fogs only exist in the cliffs, but not on the cliff shores.
Mo Lun secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, to say that the most nervous person must be him, not the ninja on the same team. Even if he has Zoro born in his body now, he is just an ordinary person, and ninjas who have not used Zoro to cultivate into ninjas are all vulnerable. What's more, the Zhuo Luo in his body is born a little bit every time he meditates, and it will be lost with the passage of time.
This kind of dro has little effect on combat.
The view on the other side of the cliff was the same as before, the only difference was that Morun saw some large birds in the distance.
"Attention! I have entered the inner valley, take out the steroid powder, and smear it all. Frontier Jingjun gave an order to everyone.
Moron took out a packet of powder from his pocket and carefully applied it to his bare skin, until his face, palms and neck were all covered by beige powder, and the rest of the powder was sprinkled on his clothes, and then he looked at the ninjas around him with a pair of big black eyes.
Everyone was beige with their faces hidden, and the chip he had been scanning suddenly lost their sight of these ninjas, although the naked eye knew that these people were still around, but the steroid powder seemed to have a magical concealment effect, and even the heat of the body was well hidden.
Steroid powder is to prevent them from becoming the target of all birds, and a small number of bird organs are not affected by these steroid powders, and may still attack the team, but as long as they are not besieged by a large number of birds, they can quickly get rid of it.
Seeing that everyone was smeared with powder, Qianqian Jingjun closed his eyes and sensed it, and when he opened it, he left directly with an instantaneous technique. At the same time, the other Nine Lives Ninjas also used their teleportation techniques to follow suit.
There was no communication, and several other people also left, but they did not use the instantaneous technique to leave, but chose the direction early and walked in pairs.
In the blink of an eye, there were only four people left, three ninjas and Morun.
"Let's go, boy, come along, you still need to collect the blue grass!" a middle-aged ninja with a beard said to Morun.
The other two, one is a girl, with a ponytail dangling from time to time, her big bright eyes are very beautiful, and the faint pockmarks on her cheeks add a bit of charm to her. The other is an old man in a loose blue robe, he was originally a ninja in charge of collecting the blue grass, but now that Mo Lun is here, the task of collecting the blue grass is entrusted to him.
Mo Lun nodded, and couldn't help but touch the steroid powder on his face with his hand, he felt a trace of coolness seeping into the powder, itching and uncomfortable.
"Hee-hee, you'll be fine after a while, and you'll get used to it quickly. The girl saw his movements, laughed and explained.
Moren nodded, and was about to ask a few questions, when he suddenly looked up at the sky.
A huge white bird flew by, and it seemed to spot the four of Morun, flying very low, and when it swept over the three, the wind-blown Moren had to crouch down to avoid being blown away.
"It's a gentle beast that won't be attacked as long as you don't hurt it. ”
The three of them stood still, and the old man waved his blown sleeve robe, and when he saw that Mo Lun was a little shrunken, he was expressionless and relieved.
Mo Lun nodded, thinking that this was the feeling of entering the Great Wild Goose Valley.
