Xie Mao ran silently in the rainy night, and was not relieved until he saw a little light in the distance ahead.

He'd been in the rain for nearly five hours, exploring the first place on the map where he might be hiding without success, and he was faced with the dilemma of not knowing where to spend the night.

If it weren't for the map to find the lights ahead, Xie Mao probably would have to find a cold and damp cave to make do.

I hope there is hot water in the small village in front of me to warm my body...... Xie Mao thought.

Even if he wore a robe, the long-term activity still made him wet and very uncomfortable, like a cold poisonous snake sticking to his body.

When Xie Mao got closer, he found that the scale of this village was not small, and it could even be said to be a small town, which was not seen on the somewhat rough map given by Ye Cang.

Could it have been developed recently? With such doubts, Xie Mao silently entered the village to find a hotel, took a hot shower in the booked room, and then went down to the dining room on the first floor to order and pack.

It was about nine o'clock now, and there were not many people in the dining room, and the more conspicuous thing was a group of men sitting around drinking.

Speaking of which, where are they going to spend this night...... Xie Mao thought about it while finding an empty seat, and after ordering the food, he found that the group of men who were still a little noisy suddenly quieted down.

Because there was no warning of inspiration, Xie Mao looked over unhurriedly and found that it was those men who lowered their voices and discussed something.

Xie Mao also turned his ear to listen carefully with interest, the whisper that ordinary people thought they thought was actually clear and audible in the ninja's ears.

“…… It was really terrible, my brother said that the whole village was burned and looted, and the fire was so heavy that it could not be extinguished! ”

"What are you kidding, the ninja-sama stationed there?"

"Who knows, it's either dead or long gone, those people are really crazy!"

"Aren't they afraid of Hanzo-sama?"

"It's not going to kill us in Luyu Town, is it?"

"Don't worry, it's far away from us, and Luyu Town is watched by Lord Shinobi, how dare they come."

"These people are really damned!"

"I wish Hanzo-sama had killed them sooner!"

Xie Mao frowned slightly when he heard this, Taki Shinobu actually attacked the civilians' villages on the territory of the Land of Rain, so the nature of the matter would be even worse, and it would be completely irreparable.

It's not a slap in Hanzo's face anymore, it's just rubbing Hanzo's face under his ass.

Why does Takikure Village do such a thing...... Xie Mao didn't understand at all.

At this time, the dishes ordered by Xie Mao had been packed and delivered, Xie Mao picked up the food and went upstairs, returned to his room to remove the transformation technique, and prepared to enjoy dinner.

He's been running around for so long, he's really hungry.

But before he could start, the window of the room was suddenly opened, and then one black shadow after another jumped into the room, and a total of three figures looked at Xie Mao together.

Xie Mao opened his mouth slightly in shock, and immediately saw the figure on the right take off his hat, revealing the familiar face of ripe melon seeds-Ye Cang!

"Is that you?" Xie Mao, who was about to break the door and escape, stabilized his mind.

It's too scary for three people to suddenly rush in!

At this time, the other two also took off their hats, a man and a woman, both looked a little familiar, and they were people that the "scorpion" had known in the past.

The man standing on the left is nearly 1.8 meters tall, with short brown hair, slightly dark skin, and good facial features.

This is a genius ninja who is even more famous than Ye Cang, Luo Sha, who has a powerful Blood Inheritance Limit Magnetic Escape Dust Gold, and is the most optimistic heir to the Wind Shadow.

The woman standing in the center was a gentle look, a little more than one meter seven tall, with short sandy brown hair, beautiful indigo eyes, a beautiful face, and a smile looking at Xie Mao.

Karuiro, a well-known medical shinobi in the village, is half a student of Chiyo.

"It's not easy to be an examiner." Ye Cang spat out a breath of scorching air, steaming out the water on himself and the body of Garura beside him, "You should know both of these two, so I won't introduce them." ”

"Scorpion-kun, good evening." Garura greeted with a gentle smile.

Luo Sha on the side nodded slightly, even if he had said hello.

"Good evening, do you have any information for me?" Xie Mao got up and asked.

"No, it's just that the three of us are a little hungry, and it just so happens that you bought something to eat." Ye Cang said with a smile.

Xie Mao's eyes twitched when he heard this, so you're here to rob me of dinner, right?

"Hahahaha!" Ye Cang was amused by Xie Mao's reaction, and couldn't help but hold his stomach and laugh.

Karuira also shook his head amusedly, and said in a gentle voice: "We have prepared our own food, but we don't want to eat on a rainy night, so we came to borrow a place." ”

Luo Sha hugged his chest and criticized unceremoniously: "The two of them are too hypocritical, and they can't bear such a trivial matter as Shangren." ”

"Huh? So why are you following up? Ye Cang immediately shot back.

"Well, okay, okay." Karura hurriedly waved his hand and said as he took out the sealing scroll, "I'll take out the food first." ”

Xie Mao looked left and right, remembering that Ye Cang had not dried the moisture on Luo Sha's body just now.

It seems that the relationship between these two people is not very friendly.

Xie Mao froze and coughed lightly: "Have you heard about the matter of Taki Shinobi?" ”

"Well, along the way, I deliberately expanded the scope of action, but I didn't find anything." Ye Cang said.

"I just heard that those shinobi attacked a village." Xie Mao is colorful.

"What!?" The three of Ye Cang all looked at Xie Mao in surprise, and Luo Sha hurriedly asked, "Are you sure?" ”

Xie Mao said calmly: "It's just the news I heard, it's impossible to be true, don't you have relevant information?" ”

"No, it's not a trivial matter, Hanzo should be alarmed, but now there is no news at all...... Well, our intelligence agents are all on the lookout for Jiraiya, perhaps ignoring the changes here. Ye Cang frowned.

"Humph! With Hanzo's temperament, I'm afraid I'll guess that this is a trap, and he won't come easily. Raksha narrowed his eyes and said, "Shinobi's coat is a clumsy disguise that can be seen through at a glance, and it was either Iwa Shinobi or Konoha Ninja who did it. ”

"I'm leaning towards Iwa Shinobi." Garura said softly.

"They are really the most likely." Ye Cang's brows didn't stretch, "What are they going to do in the name of Takishinobi?" ”

Xie Mao looked at the three people who were thinking deeply, he took a bite of rice with chopsticks and said, "What's so special about Takiyin Village?" ”

Maybe it's because he's Chiyo's grandson, or maybe it's because he's a genius, in short, the three shinobi communicate with him very casually, and don't treat him as an outsider or a subordinate, Xie Mao is naturally willing to communicate with them on an equal footing.

"Special? Conceal and defend it. Ye Cang came over and grabbed a piece of meat in front of Xie Mao and ate it.

"Rumored Heroic Water?" Karura had already taken out the food and said smoothly as he gave it to Rasha.

Luo Sha took the food and said, "Tailed beast." ”

Takikure Village is the only ninja village that holds a tailed beast except for the Ninja Village of the Five Great Powers.

If only it were really related to tailed beasts...... Xie Mao's eyes lit up slightly, and while he was thinking, Luo Sha had already continued:

"In short, this matter must be inseparable from Yu Ren himself, I will urge the intelligence officers, tsk, there has been no information back recently."

With that, Rosa rolled out of the room through the window with the food.

"He doesn't eat in the room?" Xie Mao asked.

"Someone must be watching from the outside, Luo Shajun is taking the initiative to take responsibility." Garura smiled softly, "Scorpion-kun, we have some cold dishes here, if you don't mind, you can try them at will." ”

"Thanks, you too, eat some hot to warm up." Xie Mao pushed out the meal he had packed.

"These dishes are all made by Karura herself, and they taste pretty good." Ye Cang said with a smile.

What a good wife and mother, if I remember correctly, she will become Raksha's wife in the future...... Xie Mao sighed in his heart, but now, the two don't seem to be in love yet.

The three of them quickly finished their dinner, and when they were cleaning up, Xie Mao asked, "Where are you sleeping tonight?" ”

Ye Cang held his chin with his hand and smiled: "It's cold and wet outside, why don't we squeeze the three of us today?" ”

…… Xie Mao glanced at Ye Cang calmly, I don't know if it was an illusion, Ye Cang, who was next to Ka Ruluo, was more lively and liked to joke more.

Ka Ru Luo covered his mouth and smiled: "Okay Ye Cang, don't tease the Scorpion King, rest and vigil are essential, let's take turns, let's do it in pairs." ”

That means I'm going to keep a vigil too...... Xie Mao bowed his head lightly and said, "No problem." ”

At this time, a slightly hoarse bird call suddenly sounded outside the window, and Ye Cang and Jia Ru Luo Qiqi changed their faces when they heard it, and quickly put on the covered hat, Xie Mao slowed down for half a second and realized that something was wrong, and as soon as he put on the hat, Ye Cang grabbed his wrist and jumped out of the window together, and saw Luo Sha standing in front of the window.

"How?" Xie Mao asked hastily.

Luo Sha's back was solid and tall, he seemed to look upward, and said in a deep voice:

"We're almost surrounded."
