Chapter Thirty-Six: Age (Ask for Follow-up!) )
Xie Mao explained to Chiyo yesterday that he was going to visit Fenfu, and Chiyo had already made arrangements, and when Xie Mao went out, the ninja named Gan Qingya who had seen him before appeared beside him.
"Are you going to find someone Zhuli?" Gan Qingya smiled as a greeting, and then asked.
"Well, you're taking me?" Xie Mao asked.
"That's right! Follow me! ”
Dry green sprouts always feel full of vitality, kicking the positive step to lead the way, because the appearance is very cute, so the kicking out of the positive step is also very cute, like selling cute.
Xie Mao followed her, a little funny in his heart, and asked calmly on his face, "What are you doing?" ”
"Huh? Lead the way. Gan Qingya turned his head and replied.
"We can hurry up." Xie Mao raised his eyebrows slightly and said.
"Hmm......" Gan Qingya puffed out his cheeks, "I'm bored to protect you these days, slow down, so you can relax." ”
Xie Mao glanced at Gan Qingya, thought for a while and said, "Let's go over early now, and when we come back, let's eat outside and relax." ”
"Hey, are you going to invite me?" Dry green sprouts' eyes suddenly lit up.
"Well, with the other ninjas who protect me." Xie Mao is not stingy with money for a meal.
"Yay!" Gan Qingya happily raised his arms in celebration, "Then let's hurry up!" ”
It's really just a meal to buy you...... Xie Mao bowed his head slightly, and the two of them immediately ran to their destination at the speed that a ninja should have.
Blessings are also blessings, but they become the name of unblessed.
During the period of the second generation of the wind shadow, the young Fenfu was implanted with Ichio Shouzuru and became the pillar force of the people of Sand Hidden Village.
In the Shayin Village in today's era, the human pillar force is not a hero, but a monster feared by the villagers, a bomb that the high-level is afraid of.
So even though Fenfu never made a mistake or hurt others, he was still imprisoned by the village leaders, and even his name was gradually forgotten, and finally people regarded him as a monster and only called him "Shouhe".
Led by Gan Qingya, Xie Mao arrived at the prison, far from the center of the village, in a cave in the hills.
In the dust swept up by the wind, Xie Mao, who was specially wearing a hooded windbreaker, followed Gan Qingya to the gate of the prison, and after several verifications, he finally arrived at the last checkpoint.
At the entrance of the cave, two ninjas wearing white dust hats, beige vests, and dark long-sleeved trousers stopped in front of Xie Mao and Gan Qingya, and the ninja who led the way was originally cold-faced, but when he noticed Xie Mao, a genius who had recently become famous in the village, he showed a close smile and said:
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, and although I don't know what you're looking for Shouzuru to do, be sure to be careful of that monster."
Speaking of the back, the ninja reminded solemnly, worried that something would happen to Xie Mao in his territory.
"Don't worry, uncle, I'll watch him." Gan Qingya responded with a smile.
Xie Mao bowed his head lightly and followed the dry green buds into the cave.
When the two of them entered, the attendant next to the leader approached and said, "Who is that red-haired little ghost, he doesn't speak in the face of his seniors, he is so cold." ”
The leader glanced at his attendant and lowered his voice: "You be quiet, that's the grandson of Advisor Chiyo, and he has also been tasked with S-class missions as a key person before." ”
"Oh, it seems to be called..."Scorpion', right, isn't that S-class mission a Chiyo advisor and a Hakura Kamishinobi leader, he just went to gild, right?" The attendant questioned unacceptably, he was almost thirty years old, and he hadn't even touched the S-class mission.
"That's what I thought I did......"
The leader swallowed, and there seemed to be shock in his eyes: "But a few days ago, the scorpion killed a spy without a puppet and was seriously injured. ”
"It's... Is that spy too weak? The attendant said subconsciously.
“…… I don't know, anyway, don't be careful, they want to communicate with monsters, just let them communicate. The leader shook his head slightly, "They'll soon be out of the way." ”
Monsters, how is it possible to communicate?

Xie Mao and Gan Qingya went deep together, and soon saw the prison surrounded by dark purple iron bars, and in the darkness behind the prison, a figure could be faintly seen sitting cross-legged.
Before the two of them could walk to the prison, a cold feeling from the depths of their hearts full of evil thoughts suddenly rose, frightening both of them to pause at the same time.
After a short pause, Xie Mao, who knew the essence of the tailed beast, continued to move forward and said, "You stay here." ”
"You... You be careful. Gan Qingya didn't refuse Xie Mao's kindness, she was indeed a little stunned.
Xie Mao continued to move forward, and found that the terrifying cold feeling was only because the tailed beast chakra was scattered around, not because Fenfu or Ichi-Tailed Shouhe took the initiative to scare them.
These loose chakras are not cohesive, they are full of the negative emotions of Shouhe, and they are mixed with the chakras of Fenfu himself, so they are not pure tailed beast chakras, and Xie Mao can be sure that they cannot be used by himself.
Xie Mao walked to the front of the prison, and then with a faint light, he saw the people in the prison clearly.
It was a bald old man with long eyebrows, but all white, wrinkled all over his forehead and cheeks, and his face was peaceful, except that his deep-set eye sockets looked a little intimidating.
The old man was wearing a dirty light blue robe, with a purple drape on the outside, and his hands were folded reverently and peacefully, ignoring Xie Mao's arrival.
Xie Mao watched quietly for a while, and then slowly spoke: "Hello, I'm a scorpion." ”
"......" The old man slowly raised his face, looked at Xie Mao silently for a few seconds before opening his dry lips and spitting out a hoarse voice: "Hello, Scorpion, there is no need for honorifics, I am blessed." ”
"Can I sit here?" Xie Mao didn't want to look down and continued the conversation.
"This is not my place, but it may be." The corners of Fenfu's mouth turned up slightly.
"Thank you."
Xie Mao simply sat opposite Fenfu, the two looked at each other through the iron bar, Xie Mao asked calmly, "How long have you been here?" ”
"How long?" Fenfu raised the left half of his brow, he thought for a while, and finally showed an apologetic smile, "I don't remember." ”
Hey? Gan Qingya, who was listening carefully in the back, was stunned, feeling that this person's pillar power was not as terrible as he imagined and the rumors in the village.
"Have you forgotten for a long time?"
"No, I just don't remember." Fen Fu's smile is peaceful.
"That's fine." Xie Mao nodded slightly, he looked at Fenfu's old appearance and said, "Do you remember your age?" ”
Fenfu shook his head very slowly and slightly: "There is no time in the mountains. ”
It means I can't remember.
"The one inside you should know, right?" Xie Mao asked.
Fenfu's sunken eyes met Xie Mao's gaze, and he said hoarsely: "If you really want to know, I can ask him." ”
"No, let's do a divination and put some of your chakras on this deck." Xie Mao took out a stack of cards and gestured.
"Divination...... Is it? ”
Fenfu, who was implanted by the second generation of the wind shadow at a young age, did not receive much basic education, and did not know the meaning of "divination", but fortunately, Shouhe in his body explained it.
"Yes, I'm going to use this deck of cards to tell you how old you are." Xie Mao explained.
"It's like a toy you've seen when you were a kid." Fenfu smiled, but didn't refuse, and reached out to inject a little chakra into the card.
Xie Mao immediately shuffled the cards quickly, then put them in front of him, drew the first card and showed it, and saw that it was an upright "ugly" card.
Xie Mao raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"Ugly" is ranked second among the twelve earthly branches, and in this divination, the "ugly" card means that the age of the blessing is only 36 years old at most.
But Fenfu's old appearance is not only so old.
If it weren't for the fact that there was no abnormality in the inspiration, Xie Mao would have suspected that there was something wrong with his divination.
"What's wrong?" Fenfu noticed Xie Mao's expression.
"You're younger than I thought." Xie Mao shuffled the "ugly" card back to the pile, and after a quick shuffle, he drew the first card again, which was a positive "Chen" card, representing 5.
"You're only 29 years old?" Xie Mao frowned in disbelief.
"Hmm...... Shoutsuru said you're right. Fenfu couldn't help but smile happily, "Divination is really powerful." ”
If it weren't for my ability to do divination, who would have told you that you were only 29 years old...... Xie Mao was still a little unacceptable.
The dry green shoots not far away were also shocked.
"Can you explain to me how divination works?" Fenfu asked innocently like a curious child.
"It's simple." Xie Mao saw that his divination had aroused Fenfu's curiosity, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl slightly.
He stretched out his hand and spread out all the cards, explaining:
"A total of twelve cards, starting with 'sub', ending with 'Hai', divided into positive and reverse, entering Chakra, drawing the first card after the first full shuffle, such as just 'ugly', it represents the second twelve years, and then retract the card and reshuffle, and then draw the first card, just like the 'Chen', on behalf of 5, because both cards are positive, so add up to get 29, if the two cards drawn are reversed, that is also adding, only when waiting for a positive and a reverse will the two numbers be subtracted."
After listening quietly, Fenfu clasped his hands apart and patted them gently, exclaiming: "Amazing, amazing." ”
