The Legend of Hinata of Konoha

Chapter 203 Compromise
"What exactly do you want?" The man glared at the young man at the door, but his heart was filled with fear.

He couldn't fight and couldn't escape, and he was like meat on the chopping board. It was really sad.

Until now, he still doesn't understand why this unknown and powerful boy came to him!
"I have two questions I want to ask you, as long as you can tell me the answer truthfully, I will leave quietly without disturbing your life!" The boy leaned against the door frame and said nonchalantly.

Immediately, the man's eyes were attracted by the movement of the boy's right hand, but he saw the boy take out a stack of green banknotes from his pocket.

"As long as your answer satisfies me, they are yours!" Yi Zhe shook the coins in his hand, his face still smiling.

Destroying the opponent's will to resist is only the first step; then using lures to lure them is the second step.

Simply making the other party submit may not necessarily get him what he wants. The carrot is added after the big stick, so the combination effect is more secure!
After all, normal people would prefer carrots.

"What you said is true?" The man's eyes were fixed on the stack of banknotes, and his breathing became a little short.

He had already put the fear behind him.

With so much money, if it was all used to buy wine, it would be enough for him to drink for a long time.

"of course it's true!"

"Do I have to lie to you?"

Yizhe smiled and put the banknotes back into his pocket, turned around and walked into the house.

The man glanced at the half wooden leg in his hand, gritted his teeth, threw it aside, and followed into the house with a sigh of relief.

Right now, he simply has no second better choice.In addition to cooperation, he has no way out.

Fortunately, they can get money for cooperation, which can be regarded as a consolation.

squeak--

The man closed the door.

It wasn't that he was afraid of being seen or something, but that he had been doused with cold water before, and stood outside in the snow for a while, the alcohol dissipated, and he was already shivering from the cold.

Close the door, just to isolate the air-conditioning outside.

"Let me change my clothes before we talk!" He said to the boy with a sad face.

"You are welcome..." Yizhe nodded without saying anything.

Not long after, the man changed into dry clothes and came out from the back room.

He pulled up a chair, sat in front of the boy, and asked calmly, "What do you want to ask?"

After changing clothes, his mood has gradually calmed down, and the other party has not shown any intention of hurting him for the time being, so naturally there is nothing to be afraid of.

"Two questions!" Yizhe stretched out his right hand and showed two fingers.

"you say!"

At the end, the man was still a little nervous. At this moment, he had the urge to smoke.

Trembling slightly, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took out one naturally, put it in his mouth, and wanted to light it.

"I don't like smoking, so you'd better not smoke in front of me!"

A cold voice interrupted his ignition.

With a pause in his hand, he put away the lighter, but still had the cigarette in his mouth.

Although it can't light a fire, but just put it in his mouth, the familiar pungent smell can also give him a lot of relief.

He took a deep breath in satisfaction, and then said: "The thing Ninja-sama put so much effort into asking is definitely not simple!"

"I can't guarantee that I will be able to answer your question!"

The man let out a long breath, and his eyes fell on the wine bottle on the table.

"You just answer truthfully, as much as you know, and I won't deliberately make things difficult for you, an ordinary person!" Yi Zhe stretched out his right hand and knocked on the table.

"Okay..." Attracted by the knocking sound, the man went up and saw the serious look in the eyes of the owner of the finger. His heart trembled, and he couldn't help but agree.

"First question!" The boy raised his right index finger and said solemnly, "Have you heard of the 'Snow Clan'!"

"no!"

The man shook his head decisively, and directly denied: "I have lived here for nearly 40 years, and I have never heard of the 'Snow Clan'!"

"That's all for your village! Can you guarantee that you know all the villages on this island?" Yi Zhe narrowed his eyes, not quite believing the other party's answer.

The man shook his head again, and said with a wry smile: "The weather on our island is abnormal, so there are not many people living there, and there are only three villages in total!"

"These 40 years are enough for me to fully understand these three villages!"

"So little?" He was a little surprised.

After thinking about it, it snows all year round on this island, which is not suitable for farming and living. There are more small islands nearby to choose from. It is understandable that not many people are willing to live here and suffer.

"Then have you ever heard that there are people or ninjas who can use ice here!" Yi Zhe was still not reconciled, so he gave up on the pursuit of the Snow Clan.

For some families, in order to avoid disaster or enemies, anonymity is not impossible.

Then, it is not impossible for the Snow Clan to change to another surname.

"Use 'ice'?" The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and asked in doubt: "You mean the boundary of the blood inheritance of 'ice escape', right?"

Although he is not a ninja, civilians in this world also know a lot about ninjas.

He thought about it over and over again, and always felt that what the other party said was like a kind of blood boundary continuation.

"Yeah! That's the one!" Yizhe nodded, his brows beaming with joy.

The other party can say 'ice escape', presumably they know something.

He immediately asked excitedly: "Is there any user of 'Ice Escape' on this island?"

"no!"

The man replied blankly, snatching the bud of hope that had just sprouted in the young man's heart.

Immediately afterwards, he added another sentence.

"If you want to find the Bloodline Boundary on this island, I advise you not to waste your time!"

"Why?" Yi Zhe's eyes widened, a little surprised, the other party didn't seem to be coaxing him.

"Because, on this island, a few years ago, there was no blood inheritance boundary! No matter whether it is the holder or the awakened one, there is no one left!"

The man's heavy tone slowly revealed an astonishing fact.

"A few years ago? Not one left?" Yi Zhe frowned slightly.

He remembered what the old boatman said before he came to the island. On this island, an inexplicable event happened a few years ago, and countless people died.

He vaguely felt that these two things would not be unrelated.

"It's not true that none of them are left. Those blood inheritors who were originally outside all came back for a short time afterwards, and then they all moved away from this island and never came back!"

The man was melancholy talking about the past, with a trace of sadness and remorse in his eyes that could not be erased.

"Then my second question, that is, what happened on your island?" Yi Zhe slowly raised his second finger.
