"From here, it's the gate of the Temple of Fire."

Under the long stone staircase, the young man who chopped wood wiped the beads of sweat from his head, and said to the two visitors from outside the mountain with bright eyes: "The current abbot of the temple is Master Dilu, and I heard that even the daimyo must be respectful when he sees him."

"At this spring's prayer ceremony, when I saw him presiding over the festival on the mountain behind the Fire Temple, I found that he could make a Bodhisattva with a thousand hands and a thousand eyes appear behind his back, which was very ......."

As soon as the kid talked about these local legends, he went on and on.

At first, the two outsiders listened patiently, but they still had something to do, and finally the girl of the two couldn't help it first, and grabbed the wrist of the young man chopping wood, whose dark face turned red and was nervously speechless.

"Thank you for showing us the way."

The girl's moon-like face had a flawless smile, and her crystalline light purple eyes were full of kindness.

As she spoke, she gently rested the square object wrapped in lotus leaves in the palm of the young man's hand.

"This is a specially made medicinal candy at home, after eating, I will go to the mountains to chop wood, I will not be bitten by mosquitoes, it is very useful."

"Hmm......"

Maybe the girl in front of her was really good-looking and didn't look like a real person, but the young man chopping wood was convinced of her words, left a sentence of "thank you, sister", and then ran away with a red face and a pill candy.

"Thank you...... Sister? ”

The girl stared at the distant back of the young man chopping wood, a faint cyan floating on the corner of her forehead, and the butterfly feather weaving on the outermost part was windless.

"Any questions?"

Her companion had a handsome face, and looked like Sasuke Uchiha, but his face was a little less square and angular than the former, who always pouted.

Yi Yong opened a pair of purple-red three-hooked jade writing wheels, and the hair that had regrown in the past three years was like the Jiguo brothers, and was tied high behind his head, which was quite characteristic of the ancients.

"Not counting the days you died, you're twenty-one ...... now"

"I'm sure that's not what he meant, and there's no need for you to mention anything dead."

Butterfly Shinobu expertly interrupted Yiyong's explanation, then lowered his head and glanced at his legs, and said quite confidently: "I think it should be because of my height, that's why I seem to be older than I actually are, right?" ”

She approached Yiyong's side, stretched out her hand and gestured above the heads of the two, muttering: "The result of this morning's measurement is 1.57 meters, which should be about 3 centimeters taller than you......"

Butterfly Shinobi, whose physical age is 12 years old, has exceeded his height of 1.51 meters in his previous life.

Considering that she entered puberty about half a year earlier than Yiyong, this height will last for a short time.

Sometimes in the middle of the night when she dreams about this, she will laugh out loud like a silver bell, scaring Xiao Nan who lives next door.

"1.55 meters." Yiyong corrected: "You didn't reduce the thickness of the sole. ”

"......" Butterfly Shinobu took a deep breath and spit out a long breath.

There is no way, there is a good reason why the human body cannot control its temper at this special age.

People who lose weight say that they always want to take off their clothes first, and people who have gained height don't want to take off their shoes before pulling the ruler, isn't this a normal thing? Why do you have to debunk it!

"Do you remember the purpose of our visit to the Temple of Fire?"

After adjusting his facial expression, Butterfly Shinobu turned his head to Yiyong and settled down seriously: "We are not here to make friends, let alone scare or offend people, so your 'six weapons' - compliment, smile, gift-giving, imitation, repetition and that ...... What's that......"

"Genuinely caring." Yi Yong spat out a few words in a serious manner.

Judging from the speed of his answers, he must have memorized these six words as if they were the heart of the breathing method, and he would never forget them.

"yes, that's it."

Butterfly Ren clapped his hands, and asked half-gently and half-forcefully: "In short, you don't use any of these strategies, just let me say the important things." May I? ”

Yi Yong was silent for a moment, staring at Butterfly Ninja's expression without any change, as if he had nothing to say to her.

After about five seconds, he suddenly stepped up the steps without saying a word, and walked straight up by himself without looking back.

"Huh? Are you actually angry? It seems that I am not the only one affected by age! ”

Get a round back.

The butterfly covered her mouth and smiled, and quickly followed, using an inappropriate analogy, her dexterous stride made her look like a gopher in a game of whack-a-mole, as if she appeared in all directions of the righteous warrior at the same time.

Between the silence and the laughter, the two soon came to the main entrance of the Temple of Fire.

The ancients said: The major affairs of the country are in worship and worship.

Among them, the item of "Rong", the daimyo chose to contract the outside to the ninja village, and the item of "ritual" is naturally perfunctory.

Although the temple of fire has a temple on the top, there are more than just temples of bodhisattvas in it - the local mountain god and water god Inari God, and even the altars of the new gods and the six immortals in the folklore of various places every year are also located in the temple.

Every year when praying for blessings, the daimyo sends a representative to sacrifice everything that can be sacrificed at once with the help of the monks, highlighting that no god can be offended if the rain and dew are evenly stained.

On the way to the main hall on the mountain, Yiyong actually saw a small shrine dedicated to the nine-tailed fox on the side of the road.

However, judging from the extent of the damage to the shrine, it is probably a relic of more than 100 years ago, when the ninja village system was not established. At that time, the Nine-Tails were really worshiped as a mountain god.

"Shibo, look over here."

When he walked near the main entrance of the main hall, Yiyong suddenly whispered a reminder.

Butterfly Shinobu followed his line of sight and noticed that a family of three was walking out of the hall with low eyebrows, whether it was in words and deeds or in terms of clothing, they were either rich or expensive.

From the doctor's point of view, in addition to the mother, the father and daughter of this family of three have a kind of health that seems to "overflow" - the fair skin and ruddy complexion look even more vigorous than her with Mu Dun.

This is not normal.

"Looks like this is the right place." Butterfly Shinobu lowered her brows, "Are they deeply affected?" ”

"It's not as exaggerated as the blood sample sent by Muichiro, but it's still stronger than ordinary people."

Yi Yong used the transparent world to carefully observe the physical condition of that family.

"However, the country of waves hasn't fished seafood for fifteen days, which means that the father and daughter haven't eaten those things for at least half a month, but they haven't shown similar withdrawal behaviors like those fishermen in Muichiro's mouth......"

"Thankfully, I didn't eat enough."

Butterfly Shinobu heard Yiyong's "diagnosis", and his expression softened slightly, "Otherwise, it will be really troublesome." The mother didn't look very good, what was going on, did it have anything to do with the seafood? ”

"It should be a gastrointestinal problem caused by eating only a vegetarian diet."

Yoshiyo checked it repeatedly, and finally came up with this result, "It's a bit like Naruto when he was a child, a little malnourished." ”

"Okay, when we're done here, let's go to their house."

As the butterfly ninja passed by the family, she reached out and popped out a seed smaller than a grape seed, which stuck to the girl's heel like a blue ear, and would not be long before it was buried in dust.

As long as it's not too far away, Butterfly Shinobu can find the location of the family through the induction with this seed.

Next, Butterfly Shinobu and Yoshiyo walked around the entire Fire Temple again, and from the more than one hundred and twenty tourists, six more people with abnormal physical conditions were found. The most serious one has been confused and lying on the ground to learn the dog barking because he has not eaten seafood for many days.

However, his family did not know the reason, and only thought that he was possessed by a ghost, so he was sent to the temple to exorcise evil spirits. The treatment given by the monks was to knock him unconscious.

"Fortunately, less than one in 1,000 people in the world are willing to spend money on this kind of seafood; There are even fewer people who can eat every day until they go crazy. ”

Butterfly Shinobu looked at the chaotic altar over there, and sighed with semi-irony: "I really want to thank that Cardo for setting the price so high." Otherwise, if every ninja can afford to eat and eat every day in order to improve their strength, I really don't know what the world will become......"

"This is just the result of humans eating the offspring of animals infected with the blood of the flying segment, and even the offspring of the offspring."

Yi Yong clenched the saber hanging from his waist, his face tense like a gloomy piece of iron: "The most important heart of the flying section, whether it is in the body of a certain sea creature or in the hands of a certain careerist, this is what worries me the most. ”

Butterfly Shinobu glanced at Yoshito with some concern.

She was about to say something, but a passing novice noticed the two uninvited guests with knives.

"Hey, who let you in with weapons?"

Shami scolded loudly, approached and wanted to drive the two away, but when he saw Yiyong's eyes, he instantly recognized who he was.

"That's... Wait, both of you. ”

Cold sweat oozed from his forehead, and he folded his hands and bowed: "Abbot Dilu is now giving a lecture in the seminary, so I will invite him over." ”

"Then I'm bothering you."

Butterfly Shinobu also replied with a namaste, and the latter hurriedly went deeper into the temple grounds.

"I didn't expect your face to be so easy to use."

Butterfly turned around and couldn't help but joke: "It's worthy of being a ruthless character wanted by three countries."

"I heard Miss Xiao Nan say that in the past, there was a very old bounty hunter in the Xiao Organization, as long as the bounty was high enough, even as a companion, he would kill the killer, and he never missed. You have to be careful. It is said that when he was young, even the Thousand Hands Pillar was not necessarily his opponent. ”

"Is that so?"

In the past few years, Yi Yong, who has escalated from a quarrel with Butterfly Shinobi to a fight, thinks deeply, "If I see him, I will do my best." ”

"Just remember."

Butterfly Shinobu looked around, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

She patted Yiyong's arm and pointed to a small temple diagonally behind the main hall. The plaque of the temple is written with the words "Jizo Spirit Sign", which seems to be a place for divination.

"I think of the last years of the Meiji era, my sister, I, Chanel, Kokiyo, Kosumi, Naho, and Aoi would go to Sensoji Temple every New Year to pray for blessings."

Butterfly Shinobu had a different smile on his face, and his eyes were full of nostalgia.

"Although I have never believed in the blessings of gods and Buddhas, since I was rescued by Mr. Beimingyu, my sister has been convinced of these things.

"So every time we remove the blessing, they will pull us to draw lots. If she draws a lot, she will make the unsigned paper into a omamori and give it to those who have not been drawn; If we don't get a lucky lot, they will teach us to tie the bad luck to the tree, saying that it will let the wind blow away the bad luck......"

Then, her tone changed slightly.

"The last time I went to Sensoji Temple, my sister drew Daikichi. But unexpectedly, less than a week after that, she ......"

“……”

Yi Yong looked at Butterfly Shinobi, and then looked at the temple over there, "You want to try it now?" ”

"I don't believe in those Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, but don't you think that the Bodhisattva of the King of the Earth is very similar to Mr. Beimingyu?"

Yi Yong accompanied the butterfly to the door of the hall slowly, he looked at the gold-lacquered statue through the porch and said puzzledly: "Mr. Beimingyu has hair, he (referring to the king of Jizo) not only wears a hat, but also has a bald head, and he doesn't look very good at fighting......"

"I'm not talking about appearance."

Butterfly Shinobu pulled out three black lines on his forehead: "I mean behavior." ”

Then she explained, "King Jizo Bodhisattva once made a great wish that hell would not be empty and that he would not become a Buddha. And Mr. Sorrow Mingyu, in order to prevent the rest of Wu Miao from escaping as before, not only put aside his death, but even gave up the opportunity to be resurrected in this world and gave it to others, while he stayed in the Infernal Hell, always on guard and watch.

"I said they were alike, and that's exactly what I meant."

"I see." Yi Yong pondered for a moment, "It's somewhat similar. ”

"So, what I'm asking for this time is not a spiritual lotion from Jizo."

The butterfly shrouded her hands outside the main hall, and after incense, she knelt down on the futon in front of the Bodhisattva and bowed three times.

"I just hope that Mr. Sorrow Mingyu can give me some warnings and enlightenment as I did when I joined the ghost killing team......

As if sensing something, the hanging stick holder outside the temple gate was blown by the wind, shook violently, and threw out a short stick, which landed right at the feet of the butterfly ninja.

"The eighth sign, Daji."

She read it, and couldn't tell whether she was happy or sad. Then she looked around, but couldn't find the unsigned book.

At this moment, there was a heart-filled chanting sound outside the hall: "The eighth sign is to say - don't see the end in the head, Wenhua must be reasonable." He knife is by chance, and it is very happy when it is encountered. ”

When the two turned their heads, they saw a monk with thick eyebrows and a solemn appearance, approaching from a distance until outside the temple gate.

This sign is to say: The donor should not have fear of the outcome in his heart, because for a long time to come, whether it is practicing ninjutsu or studying literature and art, it will be as smooth as cutting wheat with a sickle. As long as the donor keeps the right path, life will be very happy.

"Good afternoon, both of you. The poor monk is the abbot of the Temple of Fire, Jilu. ”

"Uchiha Yoshitoi."

"I'm Butterfly Shinobi, his companion."

While the two responded, Dilu was also looking at them quickly.

Seeing the three-hooked jade in Yiyong's eyes, his heart first burst out; But when he looked at the color of the writing wheel and thought of the information he got from Konoha, Jilu knew that Yiyong was probably not here to find trouble, and he was immediately relieved.

As for Butterfly Shinobi, he didn't take the other party seriously at first, until he inadvertently swept the straight sheath katana hanging from the other party's waist, and his half-open eyes suddenly widened.

He used to be the guardian ninja of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, and he would never admit it if he had seen many treasures including the Six Paths of Ninja on the Daimyo's Mansion.

[That kind of process...... Is it one of the Kusanagi Swords, the Celestial Cloud Sword? 】

Thinking of the news that had been spreading in the Land of Fire in recent days, Jilu immediately knew the identity of this girl.

She is the one who robbed the information of more than a dozen gold exchange houses in the Fire Country!

One is the number one criminal wanted by three countries, and the bounty is equivalent to that of the Five Shadows; The other could change the head of a shadow just by holding the weapon in his hand.

[Is it a blessing or a curse for such two people to come to the Temple of Fire......]

"I don't know what the two of you are doing when you go to the Temple of Fire?"

After all, Di Lu was a person who had seen a big scene, and he immediately calmed down.

"Since you unsigned for me and said that whatever I want to do will come naturally, then I will be straightforward, and I guess you will not be an obstacle to me."

Butterfly Shinobu smiled.

[I don't think I said that......]

Di Lu felt a little tightness in his bald head.

Butterfly Shinobu took out a card-sized card from his pocket, and after making a seal, he poured out a stack of documents with the watermark of the gold exchange from the card, completely unconcerned that it might reveal his identity.

"About ten days ago, there was a case of a nobleman going crazy and biting someone to death in the Fire City."

As soon as these words came out, Di Lu's eyes shook slightly, and he wanted to pretend that he was indifferent and didn't understand anything, but he suddenly felt that the skin on his face had been scraped by a knife.

When he looked up, he saw that Uchiha Yoshiyu was tilting his head, staring at him motionlessly.

He had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue listening.

"Because the victim was also a nobleman, the matter went to the daimyo. The Daimyo quelled the incident and sentenced the perpetrator to death. However, considering that the murder was caused by a perverted mind and a mad temperament, and that there were extenuating circumstances, the family was allowed to request and sentenced to death by hanging to preserve the body. ”

Butterfly Shinobu quickly changed the paper and summarized the content above.

However, on the night after the execution, the murderer was resurrected in the morgue, and two more people were killed on the spot in order to stop him. The next day, the execution officer secretly reported the matter to the Daimyo, and the Daimyo ordered the murderer to be executed by other means, using poisoning, stabbing, and arrow rain, but none of them could cause him to die, but soon after, the murderer's injuries gradually intact. As a result, the daimyo had to order the ninja to escape with fire, which killed him completely.

"But that same night, there were more than twenty reports of aristocrats or wealthy merchants going crazy in one night. There is no official record, but it can't be hidden from the group of spies at the exchange office. ”

Butterfly Shinobu continued, "Since several of the people who went crazy this time were noble and abnormal, and they were not comparable to the previous ones, the daimyo suppressed the matter and planned to find a cure for them.

"However, these madmen shout all day long, and it is extremely inconvenient to be placed in the city, and sooner or later there is a risk of exposure. And outside of the Fire City, the place that can reassure the daimyo is the only place besides Konoha Village......"

She gestured to her feet, "Here." Master Dilu. ”

"The poor monk doesn't know what you're talking about."

Di Lu's mouth was very tight, and his chin was almost tightened into a straight line, "I have never heard of such a strange thing, I'm afraid it's false and alarmist." ”

Yiyong was about to say something, but Butterfly Shinobu raised his hand to stop him. She casually sorted out the information in her hand and sealed it back into the cards.

"Since this matter is nothing, then it doesn't matter if I hand over those things just now to the land country and the thunder country."

Butterfly Ren smiled and waved his hand: "Anyway, they won't come to you in order to confirm a scandal and turn the entire Fire Temple upside down...... Of course, there is information marked by the exchange of money, which may be more credible in their opinion. ”

"You ......"

Di Lu's face first turned white, and then the momentum of the whole person rose sharply, and an illusory statue of Thousand-armed Guanyin immediately appeared behind him.

It's true that he was a monk, but he was also the daimyo's most trusted attendant, and he could do it to anyone in order to keep the daimyo's secrets.

However, the two men across from him looked calm, not as if they were going to deal with a famous guardian shinobi, but rather as if they were facing a child who angrily raised the toy in his hand.

"No matter who you're up against."

Yi Yong shook his head and said in a factual manner: "You can't even last a second. ”

As we all know, Uchiha Yoshiyoshi never lies. Even the enemies who hate him the most say so.

The virtual image behind Di Lu disappeared in an instant, and he fell and took two steps back.

Di Lu knew in his heart that even if he didn't say anything about it, he wouldn't be able to resist the illusion of the Three Hook Jade Writing Wheel Eyes.

"What do you want to do?"

"Rest assured, we didn't want to divulge any secrets in the first place."

Butterfly Shinobu clapped her hands happily, "I just hope you can lend us the patients, as well as the place where these patients can be accommodated, temporarily." ”

She handed Jilu a piece of paper with the symptoms of the more serious categories of "Seafood Eaters in the Land of Waves": "Then please think of a way, whether you have a treatment idea, or that you have cured a few people, in short, let the daimyo gather all the people who have the above symptoms in the Fire City." ”

Di Lu took the piece of paper, read it carefully, and the more he looked at it, the more shocked he became: "People with such a situation, how many hundred people have been in the Fire Capital recently?" ”

"That's why we need to do it as soon as possible." Butterfly Shinobu shook his head: "By the time they all go berserk and kill people, then it'll be too late." ”

Yiyong also nodded solemnly, expressing his approval of Butterfly Ninja's statement.

"I see."

Di Lu gritted his teeth, "Please come with me to get the key to open the seal of the underground palace." ”

"I'm sure you won't get out of the way."

Yi Yong said: "We are waiting here, we have found the location of the underground palace when we walked around just now, just under the main hall next to it." ”

"......" Di Lu was stunned, didn't say anything, and left after saluting.

"In this way, it is possible to observe the specific effects of the drug in the real 'patient'. Only the samples that Muichiro brought, in the end, were still a little reluctant. ”

When the land was far away, Butterfly Ren breathed a sigh of relief.

"There are no beans in this world, and there are no blue flowers, so we can only use that child's blood as a blueprint to make drugs that inhibit the flying cells, which causes his body to always be in a somewhat weak state, so he has not been able to achieve the Breath of Rock: Changzhong.

"Now Muichiro is waiting for the results of our test at the live slug, and he is the only one left in the country of waves, and he is such a character who will explode at the slightest moment, I really can't rest assured.

"I hope he can recite the scriptures honestly, and don't have any conflicts with those unknown fishermen in the country of waves!"
