Konoha: Otsutsuki from the Earth

Chapter 18

On the outskirts of Muye Village, Kaiban and his party came to the door of a farmer.

"Mr. Murano, we are the ninjas who are going to help you solve your problems. Can you tell us about the specific situation?" Kai politely knocked on the door and asked.

"Is that you? Great, please follow me."

Hearing Kai's words, a simple middle-aged man opened the door and enthusiastically led Kaiban and his party to the more remote suburbs.

Along the way, they flew together through several fields.The blue sky, clear stream, lush fields and villagers working in the fields constitute a scene of paradise.

"It's really beautiful~" Feeling the beautiful scenery, I feel comfortable physically and mentally every day.

Although Konoha Village can be said to be a military base, it usually maintains its operations by accepting entrustments from all parties and the economic support of the fire country daimyo, but it has not given up the most basic production functions.

On the outskirts of Muye Village, there is a large lush field.There are also many tasks similar to weeding, sowing, and fertilizing in the usual ninja tasks.There are even some ninjas who are just ordinary farmers when they finish their tasks and go home.

Qi Fei also praised in a rare way: "Indeed, it can be called a paradise."

Qi Fei was from the countryside in his previous life.Although the scenery and environment of my hometown are much better than the place where I worked later, it is far from here.This is the kind of beauty that can only be found in landscape paintings.

"Mr. Murano, what is our task?" Xiao Li asked curiously.

The second task Kaiban received when the mission was announced was to deal with the problems encountered by a farmer on the outskirts of the village.The specific task content and requirements were not clearly stated, but only mentioned the need to protect the fields of the Murano family.

"Your task is to protect my family's fields." Murano said as he walked, "It happened as early as a year ago..."

A year ago, Murano planted grain in his field as usual.

But when he went to check the field a few days later, the entire field had been destroyed.The soil was roughly turned upside down, and all grain seeds were eaten.

After its investigation, it turned out that it was a bird named "ant sparrow" that destroyed his field.

This is a small bird that resembles a sparrow and often comes out in flocks to look for food.Like locusts, they will eat up all the fruits and grains that pass in their path.

Because they are smaller than sparrows and mainly black in appearance, they are called "ant sparrows" because they look like ants coming out of the nest in groups.

"My field became a victim of their passing last year." Murano said sadly.

"So our task is to protect Mr. Murano's field when the ant sparrow comes next time?" Tian Tian concluded.

Murano nodded and continued: "Last year's grain is all gone. If this year's grain is gone again, I will go bankrupt. I hope you can help me protect this field."

"Leave it to us, we will protect this field for you." Xiao Li replied enthusiastically.

After speaking, Kaiban was led by Murano to a remote field near the forest.

The fields of the Murano family were as lush as the fields they had passed by before.The only difference is that there are a few old scarecrows stuck crookedly in the field.

Murano pointed to the scarecrow on the field and said: "This is my field. Have you seen those scarecrows? Although those ant sparrows only eat fruits and grains, they are also very aggressive. I hope you can pay attention to safety."

"Last year, the fields were probably destroyed during this time period. This year, ant sparrows may also pass by during these two days, please."

After Murano left, Kaiban discussed the next arrangement in the shade of a tree.

"First of all, according to Mr. Murano's request, we need to stay here for a few days until the ant sparrow passes by. Is it okay?"

"No problem!" X3
"Very good!" Kai shouted passionately, "Enjoy the team's first youth camping! If you go out to the village to perform missions in the future, you will often encounter this kind of situation."

"Also..." Tiantian hurriedly changed the subject, "The ant sparrows should only be driven away by force. Look at those scarecrows, they are all destroyed like that."

"Does that mean we need to prepare weapons?" Qi Fei continued, "Especially long-range weapons. After all, the ants are flying in the sky, and there is no way to deal with the air."

"Then let's take a look at it, and what if we don't have enough weapons." Xiao Li took out the kunai and shuriken he was carrying from his luggage.

Seeing this, everyone also took out their weapons and equipment:

Tiantian: Kunai X20, Shuriken X20.

Xiao Li: Kunai X10, Shuriken X10.

Kai: Kunai X5, Shuriken X10.

Qi Fei: Kunai X2, Shuriken X0.

"Qi Fei, why don't you bring a shuriken. And why do you have so few weapons?" Tian Tian looked at Qi Fei's shabby look with some doubts.

[Of course the rich woman doesn't understand the suffering of us poor people... If it weren't for the salary yesterday, I might not even have the suffering. 】

Qi Fei replied with a serious face: "Kunai, I think one can be used, and a spare is fine. For long-distance, I usually use Bagua Kongzhang. If the empty palm can't solve it, the shuriken is probably useless."

Tian Tian and Xiao Li had an expression of "what you said makes sense, but I'm speechless".

"But if it's like this now, I don't have enough weapons to deal with the ant sparrow." Tiantian complained helplessly, "I can't keep using empty palms."

[It’s really okay, I can happily clap my hands after you all throw it away.Chatla, that's how confident he is. 】

"So I have a proposal. We can use wood to cut some thousand yuan together before the ant sparrows come. Otherwise, when there are more ant sparrows, we will not be able to carry enough weapons."

Qi Fei picked up a branch from his feet, cut it into a needle-shaped hidden weapon with the Kunai in his hand, and held it in front of Xiao Li and Tiantian.

"This proposal is good, but where can we find wood..." Tian Tian said with one hand leaning on his head.

"The big whirlwind of Konoha!"

Accompanied by several loud noises, several big trees not far away fell down neatly.

Beside the collapsed tree, there was a figure of Kay Shining admiringly: "How can the blood of youth be stopped by such trivial things!"

"Oh oh oh! As expected of Teacher Kai!" Xiao Li's eyes lit up beside him, "If that's the case, then let's compete who can cut more thousand copies!"

"Not bad, Lee!"

"Oh my god..." said Tiantian, covering his face with his hands.

Time passed during Kaiban's handicraft competition, and the sky gradually darkened.

Surrounded by the sounds of various insects and frogs, Kaiban and his party were sitting in front of a fire, noticing how the newly caught fish was being tortured.Behind everyone there is a pyramid made of various wooden thousand books.

Xiao Li looked at the pyramid behind Qi Fei that was one head taller than the others, and said unwillingly: "Unfortunately, I lost again..."

"Li..." Seeing Xiao Li's obviously depressed atmosphere, Tian Tian couldn't help feeling a little worried.

From the morning until the evening, everyone has been working hard to make thousands of books.

At the beginning, Xiao Li was still far ahead with his blood and fighting spirit.But with the passage of time, under the double pressure of body and spirit, gradually began to be powerless.

Tian Tian was the first to give up, then Xiao Li, and finally Kai.Qi Fei was cutting Qianben unhurriedly until dinner, gradually surpassing everyone under the unbelievable eyes of everyone.

"Why is Qi Fei's physical strength and endurance so good?" Trying to change the subject, Tiantian picked up the almost grilled fish and asked while sipping the fish.

"Fortunately, I'm just better at conserving my energy. And I didn't think too much about it, so I just kept doing it until I couldn't do it." Qi Fei said while chopping wood with pain, "I just A ruthless wood chipper himself."

"Hahaha! Youth is about giving up everything and going forward." Kai smiled and said to Li next to him, "Li, it seems that you haven't invested enough in youthful blood."

"I understand Teacher Kai, I will definitely focus more!" Xiao Li said with a determined face, "I will not let the so-called victory or defeat affect my heart!"

"Well said, Li!" Kai warmly praised Xiao Li.

"Great." Tian Tian was also happy for Xiao Li's recovery, and it was rare that he didn't complain about them.

"Let's fly!" Xiao Li, who had regained his energy, once again challenged Qi Fei, "After the ant sparrows come, let's compete again. Let's see who shoots the most ant sparrows with a thousand guns!"

"No problem." Qi Fei also picked up his grilled fish and ate it.
