Escape From Konoha

The country of ghosts is a construction site surrounded by circles.

"Vientiane Tianyin!"

Pieces of stone bricks fly in the air, and are stacked neatly on the four-wheeled vehicle under the magical gravitational control.

Such a miraculous scene attracted the exclamations and applause of a large number of workers.

Facing the continuous admiration of the people around him, Nagato became slightly embarrassed.

Because he used the important ninjutsu used in combat in the work of the construction site, he always felt that the ninjutsu he had practiced hard was suspected of being wasted.

Although the eyes of the surrounding workers were kind, and there was nothing strange about the ninjas using ninjutsu to help transport stone bricks, Nagato was not used to the rhythm here, so naturally he couldn't agree.

But when he squeezed the flyer in his hand, the shyness was temporarily suppressed.

——Integrity recruiting brick movers, ninjas are preferred. Three meals are free during the working period, and the daily salary is 10,000 taels.

After a long journey for several days, he and Xiaonan came to the country of ghosts, a country far away from the country of rain, a special country that enjoys the status of a neutral country in the ninja world.

In this country, the culture of shrines and witches can be seen everywhere, and the strong atmosphere of mysticism makes Nagato enjoy the exotic scenery.

But this appreciation could not last long, because he and Xiao Nan came to this country with an extremely important task on their shoulders.

The largest chamber of commerce in the country of ghosts is the Ziyuan Flower Chamber of Commerce named after Ziyuan City, the capital of the country. Their target this time, Ziyuanhua Pharmaceutical Technology Company, is also affiliated to this chamber of commerce.

It is a large-scale chamber of commerce group spanning many countries.

Internationally, they are all well-known.

It is said that when Shiyuanhua Pharmaceutical Technology Co., Ltd. was initially established, the publicity and promotion of this chamber of commerce were also indispensable.

In short, in terms of the degree of convergence of money, it is the existence that Akatsuki needs to look up to.

Xiaonan was in charge of supplying the medicine, while Nagato was hanging out alone in Ziyuan City.

Different from the people in the land of rain, the people in the land of ghosts have a full face and an optimistic attitude towards life, which is incomparable to the land of rain in the poverty-stricken and hard-hit areas.

This makes Nagato envious.

But I also know that this is the special right of a neutral country, and it brings various advantages and benefits.

From the geographical environment of the Rain Country, it is impossible to become a neutral country.

As long as a big country starts a war, the country of rain is the first country to bear the brunt.

The economy is collapsing, the people are displaced, hungry, and the domestic politics are corrupt. It is not an exaggeration to say that the daimyo and many nobles have become the puppets of the great power.

Even so, the people of the Land of Rain have never been defeated. In times of crisis, there will always be people who stand up and set an example for the people in the Land of Rain who are suffering.

Thinking of this, Nagato's heart was filled with the strength to fight.

With the increased output of chakra, more stone bricks flew to the four-wheeled transport vehicle under the control of his ninjutsu 'Vientiane Tianyin', and were neatly placed for the workers in charge of the transport to push away.

Until the evening of the afternoon, when the sun went down, the person in charge of the construction site stopped everyone from working and began to settle today's salary.

Nagato took the salary he got at the construction site in his hand, and found that it was not the 10,000 taels written on the flyer, but the full 50,000 taels.

"Well, there seems to be more..."

Nagato was about to return the extra 40,000 taels when the person in charge of the construction site stopped him and said with a smile, "Take it, boy, if you have done the work alone, dozens of people may not be able to finish the work. Forty thousand taels is an extra reward."

If Nagato didn't take the money, he would feel uneasy.

Thanks to Nagato, tomorrow's work seems to be complete.

"……thanks."

Nagato is not someone who likes to talk a lot, but he is very sensitive to the kindness and malice of people.

He could feel the enthusiasm and sincerity of the people here, which was very different from the people of the Land of Rain who were destitute and needed charity.

Holding fifty thousand taels, Nagato felt a heavy satisfaction in his hand.

In the memory of his life, he had never taken such a large amount of money.

Thinking that Xiaonan has a debt of 10 million taels to repay from Ziyuanhua Pharmaceutical Company, that is to say, he only needs to work on the construction site for 200 days, and he can almost pay off that part of the debt for Xiaonan.

Is this the power of the eye of reincarnation? Nagato looked at his hands with such emotion in his heart.

He had never discovered before that the pupil power of Samsara Eye could make money so easily.

It's just that the country of Oni is also a strange country to recruit ninjas to work on the construction site.

Nagato thought so.

In his past consciousness, ninjas existed as tools for battle, even Akatsuki, most of the work he took on was battle-related.

Suppressing the bandits within the Land of Rain, and dealing with the wandering ninjas who are doing sabotage in the Land of Rain, are Akatsuki's main targets.

Not to mention the ninja village organizations of the five major countries, forming a more complete task system, representing the military power of a country, and thus determining its status in the ninja world.

When working on the previous construction site, Nagato found no less than a dozen people who were professional ninjas. According to their conversations, they seemed to be special workers who were resident here, and their ninjutsu characteristics were also very suitable for various types of construction sites. For complex work, it is said that special workers are specially trained.

This makes Nagato puzzled. It's not that ninjas can't do some ordinary people's work, but it's only temporary work, and the main work is still focused on fighting.

Nagato is the first time to see a country like the country of ghosts that specializes in cultivating such special types of ninjas. The first time you see it, you will inevitably have a novel experience.

"Nagato, where have you been? I've been waiting for you here for a long time."

Gathering at the entrance of a hotel in Ziyuan City, Nagato was late, and Xiao Nan complained very much.

"Sorry, this city is too prosperous, I got carried away for a while."

Nagato scratched his head and apologized to Xiaonan.

"Really, we are not here for tourism."

"How is the purchase of the drug?"

Nagato asked about drug purchases.

"It has already been purchased. Sure enough, the price of medicines in this country is much cheaper than other places, and it saves a lot of money than expected."

Xiao Nan seemed very satisfied, a smile appeared on his face.

Although it was a little hard to travel for a long distance, but to be able to buy such a large and complete set of medicines, and even a part of the remaining funds, this time to come to the country of ghosts is indeed a correct choice.

"That's great."

"Our activity funds have always been very tight, and now we can finally save some of them for emergencies."

Seeing that Xiao Nan was really happy that day, Nagato was slightly touched.

——No matter when, I just need to protect this smile, and everyone's dreams are enough.

He silently swore in his heart.

The heavier the burden on his shoulders, the more Nagato could feel the firmness of his desire for peace and the elimination of war.

"Xiao Nan..."

"What's the matter, Nagato?"

Hearing Nagato calling his name, Xiao Nan looked up at him suspiciously.

"No, it's nothing. I'm thinking that we have achieved a lot this time, and Yahiko and everyone will be very happy."

"Of course they are happy. After all, there is so much money left this time. However, Yahiko went to Sandyin and Konoha's ninja to negotiate, and there should be nothing wrong..."

Speaking of this, Xiao Nan's face showed obvious worry.

Those are the ninjas of the five big countries, and they are fundamentally different from the ninjas of their small countries.

Whether it's Konoha or Sandyin, they're not the behemoths they can provoke.

"In the beginning, even Your Excellency Hanzo had to compromise with Konoha..."

The leader of Yuyin Village, Sanjiao Yu Hanzo, is a legendary ninja famous in the Land of Rain.

Even he compromised on the battle because of Konoha's strength. Akatsuki, an organization that seemed insignificant in the Land of Rain, couldn't reverse the will of those big country ninjas no matter what.

Xiao Nan suddenly felt that it was really a risky act for Yahiko to negotiate with Shayin and Konoha's ninjas.

"Yahiko will definitely succeed! Even if we fail this time, there will be another next time. As long as we are still fighting, Akatsuki's will will be passed down from generation to generation, and sooner or later, it will bring true peace."

Nagato's eyes were firm.

Xiao Nan also nodded, if even they themselves admit defeat, it is really shameless to see their past self.

"Then let's hurry back to the Land of Rain. That's our home court."

In the still room where the Dragon Vein Sealing Device is stored.

From the closed eye device, a purple light permeates, which is the color of the dragon vein chakra, which is different from the usual chakra color.

Liuli appeared here alone, staring at the sealing device of the dragon vein, as if thinking about something.

"Don't you have any ideas about the remaining half of the dragon vein power?"

Ayane appeared at the door of the quiet room, eating hot pancakes in her hand, walked in and asked Liuli curiously.

"I just thought things were a little weird."

"Strange? What's so strange?"

Ayane didn't quite know what Ruri was alluding to.

Deal with the time and space disruptors who arrived here from another time and space, secretly solve the crisis of Loulan, take half of the core of the dragon vein, make the power of the dragon vein incomplete, and forbid people from other time and space to use the power of the dragon vein to come This time and space is messed up.

As Shiraishi said, they can't control things in other time and space, but the order of the time and space in which they live cannot be disturbed.

"Dragon veins are the earth's energy formed naturally with the help of the power of the earth. Unless the natural energy of the earth is exhausted, theoretically even if half of the core is taken away now, it will only make the dragon veins weak for a while. After ten years, maybe it will recover again, and it will once again have the power to transport people to the future or the past."

Liu Li's words slowed down Ayane's eating pancakes, and she also showed a thoughtful look.

After Liu Li's reminder, the truth of the matter is indeed a bit strange.

"Maybe it happened suddenly, he was a little ill-considered, so he was a little negligent?"

Ayane tilted her head.

"Is it negligent? I really can't imagine that a man like him would make such a low-level mistake."

A sneer appeared on Ruri's face, not agreeing with Ayane's point of view.

Ayane glared at Liuli dissatisfied, always feeling that this woman with wheel-eyes seemed to have mastered a big secret, but she was kept in the dark.

"What would you do if you knew that there was a force in the world that could travel through time and space?"

Lucy didn't answer the question.

"Well... I'll probably use this power when I encounter a certain setback that I can't get through, and go back to a time when things still have room to turn around. After all, it's such a convenient power, and it's a waste not to use it like this."

Ayane pondered for a moment before answering Liu Li's question.

Most people think this way, or when they regret something, they want to go back to the past and change the history that has happened.

Ayane also regretted something she wanted to salvage. Even though she knew that it was history, if one day she couldn't bear that kind of pressure, she might use this power to go back to the past and change some things.

"Then what if you go back to the past and still fail?"

"Continue to return to the time and space where there is no failure. If you still fail, then reverse the time and space, and keep repeating this process of failure. If you encounter obstacles in the past, you might even kill her..."

Thinking along Liuli's line of thought, Ayane shuddered a little, and her movement of eating pancakes completely froze.

She hadn't considered the situation at all.

It was only then that she realized how terrifying and terrifying the Dragon Vein's power to travel through time and space is.

Compared with this, the resurrection of the dead, which violates the laws of nature, is nothing more than this.

"Then Shiraishi-kun is..."

Ayane's voice trembled a little.

"I'm afraid there is also a reason for fear that I will become such a person, so I deliberately sealed that memory."

Lucy thinks so.

Otherwise, Shiraishi would not have asked the living gnat to come to the land of ghosts, write the past, and pass on the real history to the collective human beings.

"Whether it is the history that has happened in the future or the history that has happened in the past, it is what has already happened, and it is the real history. If at that time, he used the power of dragon veins to travel through time and space to benefit himself, and he would become himself. The most hated and despised person ever."

Ayane fell silent.

Thinking of the plan that Shiraishi intends to arrange in the country of ghosts, although I can't spy on it all, I also know that it is definitely an earth-shaking change that subverts past cognition.

Arranging such a huge plan, without reaching the end, no one can guarantee that it will be successful.

In case of failure, maybe it will use the power of dragon veins to return to the time and space before the failure.

Then encountering the self whose beliefs in the past have not changed, a life-and-death struggle is inevitable.

Maybe you will fall into a sad cycle of constant failure and repetition, and it is better to know nothing at the beginning than to become the image that makes you feel disgusting.

"To be honest, I kind of regret backing up that memory about the future."

Liuli sighed, this is probably a real feeling that ignorance is happiness.

"I've done it, I'm not going to erase that part of my memory."

Ayane was a little gloomy.

"But this kind of thing might be what he expected."

Liu Li said coldly.

"Eh? What do you mean?"

Ayane was stunned.

"Fake plays are real, but his specialty."

Liuli did not explain too much, but checked the seal of the dragon vein device, and the bright red three-hooked jade writing wheel eye appeared.

"untie!"

The seal on the ground was immediately covered with new incantations, covering the original seal.

"The composition of this sealing technique is..."

After reading it, Liuli paused and continued:

"As expected of his handwriting, things are really done without leakage."

Ayane also came over to look at the seal covering the top layer, showing a look of astonishment.

She didn't expect that the sealing technique used by Shiraishi to seal the dragon's veins would turn out to be this type of sealing technique.

This also means that all of Liuli's guesses just now are likely to be correct.

◎

Loulan Minister An Lushan privately kidnapped the people of Loulan and built a puppet weapons factory underground in the city.

Although Queen Loulan didn't want to believe the scene in front of her, the person who was kidnapped to the city's underground weapons factory was the civilian who disappeared in Loulan a while ago.

Each of them was tortured to be skinny and tattered. After An Lushan disappeared, the puppet soldiers lost their control and stop functions, so they could escape from the underground factory and report the crimes of Minister An Lushan.

After verification, Queen Loulan had to believe that the loyal minister An Lushan was a criminal who had evil intentions against Loulan.

On the same day, the Queen of Loulan ordered to search for the figure of An Lushan in the whole of Loulan, and she must be caught and give an explanation to the people.

After handing over this task to the soldiers, Queen Loulan came to the quiet room where the dragon veins were sealed, and carefully checked the seal here.

Those puppet soldiers, after being abducted by the public, stated that An Lushan was using her trust to arbitrarily use the Chakra of the dragon vein to create a large number of puppet soldiers in an attempt to control Loulan. A place of doom.

Just thinking of this made Queen Loulan tremble with fear.

After checking in the quiet room for a while, Queen Loulan found that the sealing device of the dragon vein was intact, so she planned to check the situation of the dragon vein further.

"!?"

A look of surprise appeared on the queen's face.

The deeper core of the dragon veins cannot be reached.

You must know that each generation of queens in Loulan has a special power to connect with the dragon veins, and can touch the core of the dragon veins, which is the most important source of power to form the dragon veins.

Suddenly, the sealing spell on the ground lit up, and Queen Loulan took a step back in fright.

On top of the original sealing incantation, the new sealing incantation was immediately covered, and it was also connected to the dragon veins.

"This is... that guy from An Lushan!"

The first thing Queen Loulan thought of was An Lushan, who had not yet been caught. The other party must have wanted to take possession of the power of the dragon vein privately, so she set up a new sealing technique here, which made her connection with the dragon vein not as good as before.

Although it is still possible to control the dragon vein chakra and let the dragon vein chakra give Loulan a lot of energy, but the connection with the dragon vein core is covered by the new sealing technique, thus cutting off.

And she can feel that the power of the dragon veins is only half of the original power.

Besides An Lushan, Queen Loulan couldn't think of anyone else who could easily approach this place, tamper with the spells here, and steal the power of the dragon veins.

"Her Majesty the Queen."

Back at the palace, the guards came in to report.

"How is it, has An Lushan caught it?"

There is still half of the dragon vein power that was taken away from An Lushan, which is worthy of Queen Loulan's attention.

"Excuse me, Your Majesty. An Lushan is nowhere to be found now, and he has searched every corner of Loulan without finding any trace of him."

The guard replied.

Queen Loulan sighed.

It's been such a long time and An Lushan has not been caught yet. He must have fled the territory of Loulan at this moment and hid elsewhere.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but have a headache.

I really want to recover the half of the dragon's power, but Loulan can only be self-sufficient and has no international influence.

It is obviously impossible to use the power of those big countries to hunt down An Lushan.

◎

a few days later.

Returning to Baishi in the land of ghosts from Loulan, he discussed the handling of the dragon veins with the clone of the living gnat in a laboratory.

"Lord Shiraishi, this doesn't seem to be a complete dragon vein."

The living scorpion carefully looked at the dragon vein core that Bai Shi took out, and at a glance saw that this core was not the essence of the complete dragon vein power.

"Yes, this is half the core of the dragon vein. Because the city of Loulan is built on the dragon vein, half of the core must be left to prevent the city's underground from collapsing."

"Is that so? Since Loulan and Longmai are connected as one, it is indeed impossible."

Based on this consideration, Shiraishi made such a decision, and Huo Hao was not surprised, but took it for granted.

"How is it, live gnat, do you have any suggestions?"

Shiraishi asks the live gnat for advice.

The living cockroach considered for a moment and answered Shiraishi's question:

"Although it is a core, this core itself is just a container that can hold chakra. Lord Shiraishi, please allow me to take this half of the dragon vein core back to the Wet Bone Forest to cultivate for a while and store enough chakra."

The live gnat gave a sharp evaluation.

Although the chakra in this half of the core is still enough, the loss is actually quite serious.

If you want the container to exert its due ability and effect, you must refill it with chakra.

Judging from the upper limit of the reserves of the dragon vein core, it can continue to accommodate a large amount of chakra.

"However, I didn't expect the power of the dragon vein to be so much weaker than when I saw it before. The earth vein at the bottom of Loulan may be abandoned in a hundred years."

Bai Shi couldn't understand how powerful the dragon veins in the past were in the mouth of the living scorpion, but the power of the current dragon veins was enough for him to wantonly squander.

"The matter of the dragon veins has been dealt with, and then it is time to deal with the internal affairs of the country of ghosts. By the way, live scorpion, how is the work of historical records?"

Shiraishi asked with interest.

This time, he went to Loulan to obtain the power of the dragon vein, and the clone of the living gnat stayed in the country of ghosts~www.wuxiamtl.com~ to record the history of its past experience into a book, writing it down word by word.

Those responsible for the record are naturally Shiraishi's trusted historians, who are in charge of historical research.

"Well...because the amount of information is too large, there are some things I don't remember very well, but I asked the historians to record the big events and some important secrets. There are some incredible things involved. The incident, I think Shiraishi-sama, you should be mentally prepared before watching it."

The living gnat kindly reminded Shiraishi to be mentally prepared when watching this part of history.

It knows how appalling the past world history is to the people of this age.

"Don't worry, I've been through the wind and waves all the way. No matter what kind of history it is, I won't complain or be shocked."

Shiraishi replied to the live cockroach with a serious expression, indicating that he was mentally prepared.

Hearing what Shiraishi said, Huo Hao led the way ahead, took him to the next room, and began to read the historical epic that had been forgotten by people in this era for thousands of years.
