Chapter 368 Snowy Night

The night covered the world like a curtain, making the already dark sky even darker and deeper.

The street lights are dim.

The streets of the entire Snow Country were frozen in place by ice and snow, even the scraps of paper next to the roadside trash cans.

A cold wind blew through the streets.

Brings a biting chill.

Adding to the silence of this country of ice and snow, it is hard to imagine that there is human civilization in such an extremely cold place.

The hotel stands among a group of buildings. Its cutting-edge structure makes it look like a corner of an ice fortress in a fairy tale world when viewed from the outside.

It's snowing heavily outside.

The interior is warm as spring.

However, the main reason that supports human survival in the Snow Country is the floor heating equipment made and developed from energy stones.

This was an unexpected reason for outsiders who had set foot here in the past.

Although it is cold outside, every household has the kind of stones that can be found everywhere in the Snow Country, so the indoor temperature is very pleasant.

Yinyue was lying in a comfortable bed, covered with a silky, skin-friendly quilt, her back leaning against the head of the bed, flipping through a biography that recorded the customs and people of the Snow Country.

"Turn the page."

Yinyue's eyes swept across the last line of the right page of the biography and glanced into her arms.

Fenghua Xiaoxue shrank her neck, stretched out her green fingers, and turned the page.

Then, she continued to nestle in Yinyue's arms, like a well-behaved and obedient cat.

"You really...are not going to touch me?"

There were countless grievances hidden in Fenghua Xiaoxue's words.

She took a bath and scented it.

I sent it here myself.

But right now, Yinyue’s interest in her is not as great as the book in her own hand.

Yinyue leaned sideways, his eyes falling on the pages of the book, "What's the point of touching you now?"

Fenghua Xiaoxue suddenly came to her senses.

She pouted and asked:

"So, it's Fenghua Xiaoxue who is an actress that you look down on?"

"Yes--"

"Does it have to be a princess?"

Fenghua Xiaoxue asked softly.

"Ah."

"Okay, I understand." Fenghua Xiaoxue didn't seem to intend to give up her obsession.

She left Yinyue's arms.

Shrink down.

Yin Yue: "..."

"You even know this?"

Yinyue frowned but remained unmoved. She squeezed the hand holding the book hard, and then continued to concentrate on what was written in the biography.

"I'm just practicing some of the knowledge I knew before." Fenghua Xiaoxue looked up and said.

Yinyue shook her head.

Keep reading.

My thoughts were in extreme spiritual comfort, as if I were completely immersed in the pictures recorded in the biography.

The biography mentions that the Snow Country was not originally a barren and extremely cold place. According to legend, it was once a rich land.

Beautiful scenery.

Birds are singing and flowers are fragrant.

It is more full of life than an oasis among oases.

The biography is also accompanied by simple linear illustrations. The sky here is particularly blue, the water here is clear and you can see the fish. Even the first king of the Snow Kingdom in the painting has excitement and expectations on his face when he arrives here.

The people who followed the first king were all excited to see the blessed land.

It seems that as long as people settle down here, their descendants will no longer have to worry about their livelihood.

Thus, the Snow Country came into being.

Yinyue frowned and suddenly said, "The Snow Country wasn't like this a long time ago? I mean it was covered in snow all year round."

Fenghua Xiaoxue raised her head again, her beautiful eyes like blue gemstones showing a confused look. She swallowed and nodded.

"Ah."

Looking up and thinking carefully, Fenghua Xiaoxue seemed to have thought of something, and then added:

"I once found an ancient book in the National Library. It records the time when the Snow Country became the Snow Country. My Lord, you should have seen the painting of the first king and his ministers crossing the ocean and arriving here, right?"

"Ah."

Yin Yue replied.

"I don't know when that painting was passed down. It's said to be a very long time ago. It's almost like a household name in the Snow Country."

Fenghua Xiaoxue said: "As for the time when the Snow Country became what it is now, I remember it was about a thousand years ago."

Yinyue frowned again: "It is very likely that it is the first Snow King... Let's call the first king of the Snow Country the Snow King. This painting has been passed down from his time."

"Yeah." Fenghua Xiaoxue nodded.

What Yinyue focused on was the time node mentioned by Fenghua Xiaoxue.

What big thing happened thousands of years ago?

Kaguya and Isshiki come to the ninja world.

Kaguya planted the sacred tree.

Therefore, it is because of Kaguya, Isshiki and the sacred tree that the Snow Country has become what it is today.

Yinyue felt that the direction of his guess was most likely correct.

As for the deeper reasons.

He guessed it too.

Therefore, this is why he had to come to the Snow Country in person and take away the treasure of the Snow Country.

"Huh——" Yinyue breathed a sigh of relief and reached out to lift Fenghua Xiaoxue's face.

The latter raised his hand and wiped the corner of his mouth with a meaningful smile on his face.

"have a rest."

Yinyue put the biography on the bedside table, then turned off the desk lamp and closed her eyes, while Fenghua Xiaoxue took the initiative to move into her arms.

There was wind and snow outside.

The interior is quiet and cozy.

It was a good night, Yinyue slept soundly, and Fenghua Xiaoxue also slept sweetly after a hard day's work.

The next day.

early morning.

Everyone gathered in the hotel's restaurant box to enjoy the most famous breakfast in the Snow Country, which was personally ordered by Fenghua Xiaoxue to start the day.

Yin Yue put down the plate.

His eyes fell on Fenghua Xiaoxue, and then looked at Kakashi and others:

"You two go and discuss countermeasures."

Naturally, they were discussing how to deal with Fenghua Nutao, the current Snow King.

Want to subvert a country.

In the ninja world, the fastest way is naturally decapitation.

But they are not fools waiting for you to behead them. Therefore, the first step in implementing the plan is always how to approach the target.

"Yes--"

Kakashi and the others had finished their breakfast.

Then stood up.

Fenghua Xiaoxue followed Kakashi and others away.

There was only the moon and the light left at the dining table.

"Let's go, let's go find the place you want to find." Yinyue also stood up.

"it is good!"

Guang nodded, and before leaving, he took the unfinished hot drink away.

When everyone left.

No one in the store seemed to see them, including the front desk clerk who received them yesterday.

Naturally, these people fell into Yinyue's illusion. Of course, Yinyue would pay the bills for entering the store and making all the expenses.

He wouldn't take shortcuts in this regard.

otherwise.

I had already reached the top of the ninja world, but I was getting worse and worse.

Leave the hotel.

The wind and snow hit us head-on, like sharp knives falling on everyone on the street.

Most people wrapped their heads and bodies tightly, but Yinyue and Guang only wore cloaks. Yinyue blocked out most of the cold, but still retained some coolness for the sake of the occasion.

"Has he told you where he lives?" Yinyue asked without blushing.

You know, it was he who pretended to be Madara and spoke nonsense to Hikari.

Light shook his head.

"Then..." Yinyue was about to speak, but heard Guang say, "Just take a stroll. He said that his hometown is very beautiful, and there are endless snow scenes to see every day. Except for being a little cold now, it is indeed very beautiful. However, this kind of beauty requires a high price."

Guang said as he put the hot drink in his hand to his lips, took a sip, and then frowned.

cold.

The hot drink in my hand was still warm in the hotel just now, but less than half a minute after I went out, the last bit of warmth was about to dissipate.

After saying that, Guang quickly finished the drink in one gulp and threw the carton into the trash can on the street.

"Okay, let's just stroll around." Yin Yue said calmly, "You lead the way."

"Okay." Guang nodded.

Since she woke up, she had no idea where she had gone. The people who had contact with her had long since turned into dust. She actually had no connection with this world anymore. She was free.

But freedom reaches a certain limit.

On the contrary, it is another kind of constraint that makes you not know where to go next or what to do.

When people don’t even know what to do next, they are like entering another kind of cage.

But Guang felt lucky.

At that time, she walked in a random direction and saw the Madara couple.

As a result, light has a new anchor and a new connection with the world.

This supported her to go to Konoha and find the Uchiha who was related to her by blood.

But now, the Uchiha is no longer as cold and ruthless as she was back then.

She liked the Uchiha now.

She knows it too.

The current status of the Uchiha is all thanks to the man beside him, which is one of the reasons why Guang is willing to live in the main castle.

Guang's eyes swept across the street and finally fell on a mother and daughter.

Both of them were wearing thick windproof jackets, but their gender characteristics were obvious because they were wearing pink and looked extremely feminine.

Guang subconsciously turned around and followed the mother and daughter.

Yinyue followed suit, and the two kept a distance of a hundred meters from each other.

In the wind and snow, it is difficult for people to notice that he is following intentionally.

"I thought of my mother and my father, who would hold my hand and take me out for walks when I was very young."

Guang whispered, "There were no towns at that time, only tribes. The tribes fought and competed for the rewards for taking on missions."

Yinyue did not say anything to interrupt Guang's recollection.

Light continued:

"I am very grateful that I was able to meet parents who were so kind to me during that era."

The two fell into a brief silence.

"What happened next?" Yinyue asked.

Guang said frankly:

"Later, my talent was discovered. It coincided with the Uchiha clan's defeat at the hands of the Senju clan. I was imprisoned and never saw my parents again. They probably died."

Yin Yue: "..."

"So, I hope that there will never be a situation like mine again among Uchiha."

Guang said.

Yinyue suddenly laughed.

Guang shook his head helplessly and said:

"I know that the Uchiha clan was exterminated, and it will be difficult for someone like me to appear in the future, but it has taken root in the ninja world again, hasn't it?"

Yinyue nodded:

"Since the night it wiped out the clan, a new Uchiha has been born."

"Destruction is rebirth." Guang murmured: "Rebirth comes from destruction."

"Well, if you were allowed to immerse yourself in the ocean of books more, you would probably become a great writer." Yinyue teased.

Guang smiled bitterly.

soon.

The two followed the mother and daughter to an empty square. In the middle of the square stood a huge sculpture. It was not a sculpture of a person, but of countless faces.

It's a bit like the Hokage's face mountain, with hundreds of faces carved into it.

When the mother and daughter passed by here, they crossed their hands reverently in front of their chests and saluted solemnly.

Guang was puzzled by this.

Yinyue explained:

“This is the statue left by the first Snow King. Every Snow King in the future will leave his or her own face sculpture here.

There are four squares like this in the entire Snow Kingdom, located in the east, south, west and north directions respectively.

This is one of the few scenic spots in the Snow Country, but it is a bit monotonous. ”

"You know all this?"

Guang was slightly surprised.

Yin Yue said:

"I read it in a book last night."

Guang sighed: "When you are alive, you should really read more books, any books will do."

Yinyue nodded in agreement.

After the mother and daughter finished their greetings, they walked around the huge stone sculpture and continued walking forward.

Guang and Yinyue followed slowly.

Walking on the snow.

...

...

Hotel.

Room.

Kakashi, Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, Fuuka and Koyuki sat on the warm and fluffy carpet with a large white paper and five pens in the middle.

Make sure the partition wall has no ears.

Kakashi whispered:

"Everyone, the main purpose of this operation is to help the Snow Country Princess regain power in this country. Let's put aside the legal aspects for now. The first thing to consider is to deal with those guys who took power from the old king."

"Fenghua Nutao!" Fenghua Xiaoxue said in a deep voice: "And the snow ninja who protected him."

Naruto asked, "Auntie, do you know much information about the Snow Ninja?"

Fenghua Xiaoxue shook her head and said:

"Not much. I only know that this is the armed force controlled by Fenghan Nutao when they were plotting. These ninjas are good at using ninja tools that are different from those of other ninja villages."

"Yes." Kakashi raised his hand and raised a finger. "First, we need to sneak into the Snow Country Palace, get close to Fenghan Nutao, and try to get rid of this guy at the lowest cost. On the way, we have to be careful of the special ninja tools used by the Snow Ninja."

"You should have a plan, Kakashi." Sasuke said, and finally added: "Teacher."

Kakashi nodded and said, "My plan is simple and straightforward."

As he spoke, his gaze fell on Fenghua Xiaoxue with a deep look in his eyes.

Fenghua Xiaoxue raised her brows slightly.

Because of her behavior last night.

Now, she is already considered Yin Yue's person, so she naturally knows that Kakashi and others will never give up on her no matter what in the next action.

Fenghua Xiaoxue said in a deep voice:

"If you need any help from me, just ask, I will do my best!"

Kakashi said seriously:

"My plan is to give you to Fenghua Nutao, and then we can walk into the heavily guarded palace of the Snow Kingdom openly!"

Hearing this, Fenghua Xiaoxue's expression changed.

Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura also widened their eyes and looked at Kakashi.

Then, Kakashi narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, relax, this of course requires long-term planning."

Everyone was relieved.
