Konoha's cannon fodder life

Chapter 35: Cutting out the bones and sucking out the marrow

The life in the village is very difficult. When Jiang Yuan saw a large group of women sitting around a pot of fish soup, he knew that it was more difficult than when he was in Konoha. At least when he asked for food with a calm face, those villagers will give.

But these villagers cannot beg others, they can only ask themselves for everything. Jiang Yuan's health gradually improved after resting in this unknown mountain village for more than ten days. Due to the medical level of the village, Jiang Yuan could only lie down and do nothing, and his lack of nutrition was an important reason why Jiang Yuan recovered so slowly.

It's not easy for Jiang Yuan to demand too much from them. It's a blessing that these villagers were able to treat him, and it's too much to ask for others.After regaining consciousness for so many days, Jiang Yuan can barely survive by drinking two bowls of fish soup and a small piece of fish every day. Jiang Yuan sighs, this is really barely sustaining life!

A little boy with a snotty nose ran in. Jiang Yuan was lying on the floor, counting the spider webs on the beams while muttering.

"Brother Shang, we have a bumper harvest of grain today, and we will have delicious rice to eat in the evening!"

With his head held high, he seemed to be telling Jiang Yuan something very dignified.To Jiang Yuan, eating a meal of rice would be a bit exciting to be able to eat a meal of rice when he didn't know Jiuzi, when he ran out of living expenses and failed to sneak into the Sarutobi clan's land, but the streets are full of people. It's a little nerve to show off to other people.

"Just rice?" Jiang Yuan asked expectantly.

"Uh-huh!"

Zhou sniffed his nose and nodded seriously. The long and thick snot made Jiang Yuan lose all his appetite. Damn it, was this naughty kid just here to disgust him?

"Tell Botru I'm not eating tonight."

Jiang Yuan pulled the quilt and turned around. Seeing that Jiang Yuan didn't eat in the daytime, his face was filled with a happy smile, and then he ran out and said to the little friend hiding outside the house.As soon as they heard that Jiang Yuan didn't eat at night, the children burst into joyful laughter.Jiang Yuan pursed his lips and muttered sarcasm, this is the fifth time for a group of brats to deliberately disgust themselves, do you really think that the uncle doesn't know those crooked intestines in your heart?

"Goo~~"

His stomach protested, and Jiang Yuan sighed sadly. You can't feel full even if you eat, and you can't be full even if you don't eat. You will rebel no matter whether you eat or not. In desperation, Jiang Yuan had no choice but to sleep with his hands on the quilt. As long as he slept, everything would be there.

At night, Botru gently nudged Jiang Yuan awake with a bowl of steaming rice in his hand. Jiang Yuan stood up and looked at him drowsily. Doubts gradually arose in his heart. Can he get rice from the rice just harvested today?

Seemingly sensing the distrust in Jiang Yuan's heart, Botru explained: "These are the seeds left over from this year for emergencies. Now that the village has a good harvest, there is no need for these seeds."

Looking at the husks mixed in the rice, Jiang Yuan picked up the rice cautiously, then chewed and ate it slowly.During the period, Portelo sat next to him and talked about the village's harvest this year. The implication was to drive Jiang Yuan away. The village's food was not only exchanged for the bandits to release the hostages, but also to welcome the coming winter. Anyway, there was no surplus food in the village for Jiang Yuan. of.

After finishing the rice, Jiang Yuan put down his chopsticks, Botru also closed his mouth, then packed up the dishes and left. Jiang Yuan watched Botru's leaving figure quietly, and sighed immediately. It seemed that they also had their own difficulties, and they should leave after their health improved a little.

Short of hands, short of mouth for cannibalism, besides, the villagers saved Jiang Yuan's life.

Jiang Yuan thought about it for a while, Porteru said that he had been here for more than ten days, presumably Captain Wushou had escaped Iwain's pursuit according to his plan.If nothing else, he should be in the Land of Rain or has already returned to Konoha. It is impossible to go back the same way, because the infiltration of a large number of Konoha teams has alerted Iwain, and they must have set up many perception ninjas on the periphery.

Since the route from the Country of Grass to Konoha is blocked, the only way to go is through the Country of Rain. If possible, you will encounter the Konoha troops on the front line of the Country of Wind in the Country of Rain.The route given by Lu Jiu is along the border of the Land of Rain, and going to the Land of Rain is a perfect choice.

Just as Jiang Yuan was thinking carefully about the route of Wushou, suddenly there was a loud noise outside, shouting accompanied by the sound of horseshoes, and the whole small mountain village was shrouded in crying for a while.

Jiang Yuan got up halfway, listening to the sounds outside, and suddenly thought of the bandits that Portelo had mentioned to him many times, those bandits who captured strong men for labor so that the women had no choice but to hand over all valuable things.Because the kidnapping method of these bandits is a bit special, Jiang Yuan is quite concerned about it, and this is the first time Jiang Yuan knows about such a kidnapping and extortion method.

This method is very effective. Jiang Yuan sneered. With such an IQ, why would he be a bandit? Business is better than doing this. It is really a waste of this IQ.

"Bam—!"

With the sound of the wooden door collapsing, a burly man with a knife walked into Jiang Yuan's room. When he entered the door, he saw Jiang Yuan with a bad face.

"Boy, our leader clearly told everyone in the village to go out, why are you still here?"

Jiang Yuan stretched and said, "I'm not from the village, why should I go out?"

The big man with the knife was immediately displeased. He was displeased not because Jiang Yuan dared to talk back to him, but because Jiang Yuan was not afraid when he saw him.Brother, it’s good to save face, the miscellaneous family is a bandit, if you don’t respect me, you have to respect my industry, okay, let’s scream!

"Bastard, dare to speak to Lord Bandit like that, I will kill you!"

"call out--!"

Before the sword-wielding man could finish his words, a shuriken was inserted into his throat. Jiang Yuan grinned and clutched his chest. The wound he just pulled was so painful. The shuriken was given to Ehara by Iwagakure, and those local rats were so accurate that it didn't fall off from the wound even after Ehara soaked it in the river for a long time. It was because of the shuriken that the wound didn't bleed heavily.

There was a loud noise, and the big man weakly held his neck and slowly died, his blood staining the floor red. Jiang Yuan struggled to get up. An ordinary samurai was like a babbling child to a ninja. Of course, Mifune, the leader of the Iron Kingdom, could not be measured by an ordinary samurai.

Walking to the corpse, Jiang Yuan took the long knife from the big man's hand and held it, then moved his hands up and down the corpse. Unexpectedly, Jiang Yuan actually touched something on this big man. What excited Jiang Yuan the most was that this man actually had dried meat on him. Although it was very hard, Jiang Yuan still chewed it with tears in his eyes.

It was nothing to deal with an ordinary bandit. Jiang Yuan wanted to save those villagers, and it was also a repayment for their life-saving grace.As for the kidnapped men, no accident, their souls have already returned to the pure land.The bandit's method of extortion is obviously killing chickens and taking eggs, which cannot be trusted at all. It is just wishful thinking of the villagers to exchange food for the release of the man.

This is the background under the war. Under the influence of ninjas, how dare those bandits plunder by shepherding sheep, they can only grab a wave and run away.And if the exchange is successful, once the villagers meet the ninjas of Yan Yin or Konoha, they will definitely pray for them to recover the food. Because of their reputation, the ninjas will definitely wipe out the bandits.

At that time, who will die and who will live may be uncertain, so it is better to give the villagers a little hope and clean up the last bit of property of the villagers.Then cut the weeds and roots cleanly, at least the ninjas will not waste their troops for the dead.
