Naruto: The Holy Maiden of Dawn

Chapter 25 Doubt, You Are Jealous
From that day on, Zhifeng left Konoha, followed the direction Zhiyu said, and used the pupil technique, and arrived at Yuyin Village in a short time.

"Let me down." Zhiyu was still weak, but she was already in Yuyin Village, and she couldn't let some people see things they shouldn't.

Zhifeng nodded, put her back on the ground, and supported her to stand up again.Then he raised his head, looked at the tall tower in front of him, frowned slightly, and showed a wry smile.

Someone's sarcasm came from behind: "Yo, isn't this our 'Holy Maiden'? Finally back?"

Zhifeng turned his head and saw two people wearing red cloud robes with a black background and the same bamboo hats on their heads, which just covered their hair and eyes, making it difficult to see their faces clearly.

Zhiyu didn't even look at them, but whispered to Zhifeng: "Let's go up!"

Seeing that Zhiyu didn't take it seriously, Zhifeng didn't say much, and followed Zhiyu into the pagoda.

"Wait a minute!" One of the men in a red cloud robe with a black background stopped them, looking critically at Zhifeng: "A strange man?" Then he sneered at Zhiyu: "It's so interesting! But it's not allowed! Hmm!"

Zhiyu let out a breath, collected himself, and raised his head to show him a wicked smile: "Your name is Didara, right? I don't know why you don't allow it. But your tone now makes me I suspect that you are jealous! Are you interested in me?"

"Tch, are you kidding me? Huh?" Didara gritted his teeth, his eyes seemed to be breathing fire.

Zhiyu didn't say anything more to him, and pulled Zhifeng to go around.

Then I heard a hoarse and dull voice say: "I advise you not to waste any more effort, you can't get into her eyes."

Didara was super dissatisfied: "What? Could it be that Uchiha Itachi is the only one who can fall into her eyes? Huh? But what happened to that kid just now? Huh? I must find a chance to compete with him, I can't beat him Itachi, can't beat him? Huh?"

Zhiyu didn't respond the whole time, as if she didn't hear anything.

So Zhifeng didn't say anything, but was dragged by Zhiyu obediently, and entered the tower.

The two of them had just entered, when someone closed the door behind them, and heard the sound of iron chains rattling, and the sound of the cold big lock being locked came in.

Zhifeng couldn't hide his doubts, and asked, "What's going on here?"

"It's normal!" Zhiyu replied, and then continued to hold Zhifeng's hand, and walked up the spiral steps, step by step.

Zhifeng felt distressed, and asked softly, "Did you grow up here?"

Zhiyu nodded: "Yes!"

"Have you been locked here all this time?" Zhifeng's voice trembled.

Zhiyu shook her head lightly again: "If they need it, they will release me. Come back here after the matter is over."

Zhifeng didn't even dare to think about what that "need" meant, but was Yu really a "person" in their eyes?Why does it feel like a "tool"?

Take it out when you use it, put it back in the toolbox when you're done with it...and even lock it...

"Why don't you run away?" This is Zhifeng's biggest question.

If there is concern here, or if there is a warm home, you can continue to stay here.But it's cold here, even if you go to any other place, it will be much better than here.

So, what reason does she have to come back here?

"I can't escape!" Zhiyu replied while pressing his hand on his heart again, as if his heart was hurting again.

Zhifeng wanted to blurt out something again, but he held back, frowned and gritted his teeth, feeling angry at what he saw so far.

"Who brought you here?" Zhifeng finally asked only this one sentence.He probably thought that the culprit was the person who brought her here, and if he wanted to settle the score, he had to go to that person.

"It's Orochimaru!" Zhiyu replied, stopped in his tracks, and seemed to be sighing: "He said, my mother passed away as soon as I was born. I also have a twin sister, who also went with my mother! Then... He brought me here and he said..."

Having said this, he suddenly stopped his voice, smiled wryly again, and said in a low voice: "What are you talking about that liar for?"

At this time, it has reached the top of the tower, and there is only this one room in the entire tower.

Zhiyu's outstretched hand seemed to be hesitating, hesitating, and it took several seconds before he turned the doorknob, "squeak~" pushed the door open, and said with a sigh: "I'm back!"

There was deathly silence in the room, and the only answer to her was the sound of "rustling" rain.

After the two walked in, they didn't know where to go, because every corner of the room was cold.

In the end, it was Zhiyu who moved first, walked to the wall step by step, and said softly to the black and white portrait hanging above, "Mom, I'm back!"

Zhifeng walked behind her, also looked at the photos on the wall, and couldn't help but let out a sigh from the bottom of his heart.

This is a beautiful woman, that look is very familiar to him, but...

"Mom, brother is here!" Zhiyu said, with a smile on his face, he stretched out his hand to hold Zhifeng, and said to him with some interest: "Tell mom, we are reunited!"

There was helplessness in the smile on Zhifeng's face, he raised his head and said to the person in the portrait: "Do you still remember me? I am Zhifeng! I... will definitely protect Zhiyu and never let her be wronged again. Already!"

Turning his head, he found that Zhiyu had been staring at him the whole time, his eyes were no longer indifferent, but moved and soft.

With a smile on Zhifeng's face, he stroked her hair with his hands, and said softly as if comforting: "It's okay! I'll be here in the future, and I will definitely protect you!"

Zhiyu said: "Actually, I don't need the protection of others that much..." Tears welled up in my eyes.

Zhifeng wiped away her tears with a smile, and said, "Yes! Zhiyu is also very strong! But...you are also a girl, a very ordinary girl, and you need someone to protect you, and you need a shoulder to lean on. Leave it to me with confidence!"

Zhiyu just nodded vigorously, unable to say a word.

Suddenly, Zhifeng saw something abnormal out of the corner of his eyes, and quickly pushed Zhiyu aside, saying, "Okay, go wash and tidy up your face, otherwise she will be worried when she sees you crying."

"Uh... good!" Although Zhiyu felt that the turning point was too sudden, she obediently went to wash her face.

After Zhiyu closed the bathroom door, Zhifeng immediately returned to the portrait, looking at the scene in front of him with lingering fear—the person in the portrait shed two lines of dark tears.

"I'm sorry!" Zhifeng folded his hands towards the portrait, "I didn't mean to deceive her! Please forgive me!"
