The girl bowed her head silently, and Ebizo stepped forward and stepped out of the shadows and said:

"I wish she could kill this spy with her own hands."

Xie Mao jumped off the wall and asked, "Why?" ”

"Ninjas always have to kill." Hai Laozang glanced at the man who was completely kicked to death by Xie Mao, and sighed lightly, "If she wants to truly integrate into Shayin Village and learn medical ninjutsu, she must hand in her name." ”

"Kill with a scalpel?" Xie Mao took the knife from the girl's hand and stuck it in the man's head, "That's it." ”

Hai Laozang was a little embarrassed when he heard this, and when he was about to say something, he noticed Xie Mao's expressionless appearance.

Xie Mao didn't care what Hai Laozang said to the girl, but since he noticed it and rushed over, it was up to him to decide what to do next.

“…… It's good. Ebizo reached out and popped out the chakra line, manipulating the corpse and the puppet to leave.

Xie Mao turned his head sideways and said, "Let's go." ”

As he spoke, he walked up the stairs, and after taking two steps, he found that the person behind him had not followed, but had just stood still.

Xie Mao turned his head and saw that the girl's head was lowered, her entire face seemed to be covered in shadows, and the blood stains on her body were clearly visible, and even flowing.

It's like you've been drained of your energy.

Xie Mao frowned and glanced at the back of Hai Laozang who turned to leave, a little disgusted.

The thinking of these ninjas is obviously abnormal and too limited.

Xie Mao turned around and walked to the girl's side, looked sideways at the girl's dull and indifferent face, and then he reached out and pinched the girl's nose.

The girl opened her mouth without any reaction and continued to breathe.

Xie Mao stretched out his hand to cover her mouth again, and the girl who couldn't breathe had to step back and get rid of it, and her slightly empty eyes swept over Xie Mao.

"Since you're still alive, come with me." Xie Mao grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the building.

The two of them walked on a deserted path, and it was dark all around, only the moonlight barely illuminated the road.

Xie Mao felt like he was pulling a walking corpse, what did Hai Laozang say to hit her like this?

Xie Mao thought for a moment and said, "I just met Jilaiya. ”

The girl who was dragging her feet like a walking corpse was obviously stunned, she moved her eyes to look at Xie Mao, feeling that the dead ashes in her heart had rekindled slightly, and she desperately wanted to know what was going on.

But Xie Mao closed his mouth after saying a word, and there was no follow-up.

The girl waited for a long time and didn't wait for the follow-up, and finally couldn't help but tug it lightly and shook Xie Mao's arm.

Xie Mao's face remained paralyzed, and only after the girl urged, "He's dead." ”

Dead, dead? The girl paused abruptly and opened her mouth slightly, the shock and disbelief in her heart swept through her body like a tsunami, destroying the last vestiges of her faith.

"No, it can't be......" the girl murmured as if in a dream.

Xie Mao turned his head sideways, and his expressionless face seemed to say, "Is it necessary for me to lie to you?"

The girl couldn't hold back any longer, tears flowed down like a burst, and pearls fell to the ground along the curve of her cheeks, splashing small splashes.

Why, why is this happening...... The girl looked at Xie Mao's side face blankly, and asked slowly, "You killed it?" ”

Xie Mao looked at each other calmly and said, "Yes...... So what? ”

"Then I'll kill you!" The girl shouted sharply, her red eyes seeming to bear witness to her steadfastness.

"What a stupid girl, aren't you afraid I'll kill you now?" Xie Mao asked.

“…… Kill if you want to! The girl shook Xie Mao's hand away and roared fearlessly.

"Heh~" Xie Mao withdrew his hand absentmindedly, he looked at the girl who was choking up and cried, and said, "What do I say, what do you believe?" ”

The panting girl looked at Xie Mao inexplicably, not understanding what he meant for a moment.

"You should have more confidence in your Jiraiya teacher, how can he be so easy to kill."

Xie Mao turned around as he said and continued to walk forward.

The girl was stunned in place for a few seconds, then hurriedly followed Xie Mao, and asked in a low voice with a crying voice, "What do you mean, Mr. Jiraiya, are you okay?" ”

"Want to know?" Xie Mao asked with a slight smile on his head.

“…… Well. The girl bowed slightly.

"Then don't act like a dead man, I don't know what Ebizo said to you, but he's him, I'm me, if you really want to listen to someone, you should listen to me." Xie Mao nodded the girl's little head, and then wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "How you lived before, how you live now, don't give yourself inexplicable pressure and darkness." ”

“…… Oh. The girl replied weakly.

Xie Mao retracted his finger and said: "It seems to be normal, Ebizo probably instilled in you some bloody experience of ninjas, but you don't have to take those words to heart, the world of ninjas is not all about fighting and killing." ”

“…… Jiraiya teacher, are you okay? ”

"I can't say it's okay, Ye Cang's seniors are still chasing after him, although there is a high probability that he can't catch up." Xie Mao said.

"Whew~" The girl relaxed, and there seemed to be more light in her eyes.

Xie Mao took Xiao Nan to find a staircase and sit down, the two looked up at the moon in the sky together, Xie Mao asked, "Do you remember the battle I fought with you when I was in the Land of Rain?" ”

"Hmm." How could Xiao Nan not remember that it was then that she was captured by Xie Mao.

"Then you should also remember that my original target was not you, but someone else named Yahiko." Xie Mao said.

Xiao Nan didn't answer, she was caught by the puppet just to save Yahiko, and she was stabbed for it.

But Xiao Nan does not regret this decision, compared to her who has little talent, it is Yahiko who is full of faith and determination to make the Land of Rain better.

"Ever wondered why I wanted to arrest him?"

Xiao Nan was stunned when she heard this, she didn't seem to have thought about this problem before, and she didn't know why Xie Mao didn't kill them at that time, but wanted to capture Yahiko.

Looking at Xiao Nan's expression, Xie Mao knew that this girl didn't think so much, he supported his chin with his hand and said, "It's strange, isn't it?" ”

"Do you want to use Yahiko to threaten Jiraiya-sensei?" Xiao Nan looked at Xie Mao suspiciously.

"Heh, you're thinking too much, at that time, Zilai was already unable to protect himself, where could he threaten with hostages again." Xie Mao glanced at Xiao Nan, "Besides, I didn't do it after I arrested you, right?" ”

Xiao Nan hugged his legs and asked, "...... Then why did you arrest Yahiko? ”

"Because I feel like he's the same person as me." Xie Mao said casually.

"What are you talking about?" Xiao Nan's face was full of suspicion, "How can Yahiko be like-minded with you?" ”

"Doesn't he want the Land of Rain to become peaceful?" Xie Mao asked sideways.

Xiao Nan was stunned: "...... You also want to make the Land of Rain peaceful? ”

"Use my brain, my vision will not be limited to the country of wind or rain."

Xie Mao shook his head, he raised his head and said, "I told you, unity." There are no more ninja villages, no more separate ninja tribes, and a unified world is the closest to peace. ”

"That kind of thing, how can it be done...... Xiao Nan doesn't believe in the authentic way.

"You can't stop thinking and don't dare to do it because there is little hope, it's man-made, that's all."

Xie Mao got up and said to the moon: "I have come here, I am not afraid of difficult challenges, I will use strong strength and immortal faith to unite the majority of people and create a peaceful and prosperous era together." ”

Xiao Nan looked at the boy's back in a daze, and suddenly felt so strange, as if he was meeting him for the first time.

"It's a revolution that's destined to bleed, but I want less blood, it's hard, but it's also meaningful."

Xie Mao turned around and stretched out his hand to Xiao Nan: "So, Xiao Nan, are you willing to join this revolution that is the enemy of the world?" ”

"I'm ......" Xiao Nan shrank in a panic, his eyes couldn't help but turn left and right, "I'm not worthy......"

Xie Mao looked at the hair on Xiao Nan's head and said: "If you are not confident in yourself, just believe me, I invite you as a companion, you just need to tell me, willing or unwilling." ”

Xiao Nan lowered his head, not knowing how to answer.

"We shouldn't become enemies because of our country, you and I have lost our parents because of the war, we have the same ideals and aspirations, and we should never be enemies of each other."

Xie Mao Zhengse said: "When one day, when the other sand ninja can no longer point fingers at me, you will be able to be free, whether you want to stay here or return to the Land of Rain, it will be up to you to decide." ”

Xiao Nan clenched her fists slightly when she heard this, she raised her head and asked, "Then if I don't want to, will you still let me go free?" ”

"Absolutely." Xie Mao said without hesitation, it is best that Xiao Nan is willing to be his helper, but if he can't, it is enough to convey his ideal of peace to Nagato and Yahiko.

Xie Mao's answer without hesitation was beyond Xiao Nan's expectations, she looked at Xie Mao's hand that had not been withdrawn, and felt that there seemed to be a small fire in her heart.

The fire was small, but it was burning, getting warmer.

Xiao Nan unconsciously slowly stretched out his hand.

The two little hands clasped together, Xiao Nan came back to her senses, her voice sounded gentle, but it was firm: "If you didn't lie to me, then, I do." ”

"Good. Whether it's Chiyo or Ebizo, or your teacher Jiraiya, they are all limited by history, the pattern is too small, and they can't think more because of hatred, and you have jumped out, and together we will correct the mistakes of this ninja world. ”

Xie Mao pulled Xiao Nan up, patted her head and said, "If you figure it out, forget about today's bad memories and go home." ”

"......" Xiao Nan looked at Xie Mao, who was no longer paralyzed, but with a gentle smile, and the fire in his heart seemed to have become a little bigger.

"Good!"

She smiled sweetly, and then took out a paper flower from her blood-stained clothes, which was white and unblemished, and was well protected by Xiao Nan.

"This is my blessing for peace." Xiao Nan gave the white paper flower to Xie Mao, and she whispered, "If one day, you betray your ideals, I will tie this flower to your heart." ”

“…… Yes? Xie Mao took the flower, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching after hearing Xiao Nan's words.

Something seemed to be wrong with the little girl.

Xie Mao pinned the flower to Xiao Nan's ear, and then patted her head: "Then you better keep it for yourself." ”

"Hee-hee, are you scared?"

“…… Let's go. ”
