On the trade route from the Fire Country to the Wind Country,

Thousand-Handed Buddha gathered the cloth wrapped around his head and carefully checked the map to identify the direction.

Taking the wrong path in the desert is basically a death sentence.

Originally, this mission should have been led by Uchiha Tajima. After all, Uchiha Madara was increasingly annoyed with his old father who had become increasingly idle after his retirement, and had long wanted to find something for him to do.

However, Izuna and Xing are getting married soon this year. After exchanging marriage certificates, they are expected to get married in autumn. Uchiha Tajima is so happy that he doesn't care about anything else. He concentrates on preparing for his youngest son's wedding, waiting for the young couple to have two children in three years so that he can enjoy the company of his grandchildren as soon as possible.

Uchiha Madara was frightened by Tajima's enthusiasm and basically lived in the office, fearing that his old father would remember him one day and force him to go on a blind date.

Therefore, this task can only be undertaken by Thousand-Handed Buddha.

(Hashirama Senju, who was far away in the Senju clan’s territory, burst into tears and grabbed the door frame with both hands: No!!! Father!!! You can’t be so cruel!! Last time it was Madara, this time it’s my turn!!! I want to go out and play too!!!)

Senju Tobirama and Senju An tightly grabbed Senju Hashirama's legs and pulled him into the office: Don't even think about running away! )

As for why they didn't let other people lead the team, the answer is that they don't have enough strength and experience, and Kyojuro's relatives and friends look down on him.

"Kids! Hold on tight, we're almost there!"

"it is good!!"

Kyojuro, Yu and Tatsumi were also all wrapped tightly in cloth, with their mouths and noses wrapped in three layers, otherwise their mouths would be filled with sand when they opened them.

They took the trade route from the Fire Kingdom to the Wind Kingdom. There were many vehicles and camels traveling back and forth, but the overall climate in the Wind Kingdom was very bad.

Even if you hold a map and follow the official road, you may still get completely lost in the yellow sand due to a sandstorm.

Walking in the desert is not just about enduring the scorching sun and lack of water. The temperature in the desert drops rapidly at night, and poisonous insects, snakes and scorpions that hide during the day come out at night to look for food. Fortunately, Qianshou’s family has the black technology of folding houses.

Along the way, many caravans traveling with them saw this good thing, and before reaching the Kingdom of Wind, Thousand-Handed Buddha had received several orders.

Risks and benefits often coexist. After walking in the desert for two days, Kyojuro successfully unlocked a new plant [Cactus].

His guess was correct.

However, because they were in an unfamiliar country, Kyojuro did not summon the new plants for the time being.

This time, Kyojuro and Yu came to try whether the desert climate could allow Kyojuro to unlock new plants, while Fukan and Tatsumi came to increase the sales of cold melons in the Wind Kingdom.

Winter melon, a sweet, juicy, and cooling fruit, cannot be sold only in the Fire Kingdom.

By the way, the Uchiha family has handed over the cultivation of the improved winter melon seeds to the Senju family. They are only responsible for harvesting the fruits, processing them, and selling them for a profit (crossed out). If the Senju family can bypass the Uchiha family and sell the winter melons directly to other places, the Uchiha family will be happy to see it happen.

After all, as long as there are people who eat winter melon, there will be no shortage of local people who will pursue the more fancy and sophisticated winter melon shaved ice.

There is no shortage of juicy fruits in the Fire Kingdom, and the prices are just that high. But it is different in the Wind Kingdom, a country where people have to find ways to dig even the water they drink. The Senju family can ask for any price for this kind of fruit that can replenish a lot of water.

Of course, they can't expose their unscrupulous faces right away, so they are now ninjas assigned by the Daimyo of the Fire Country to deliver gifts (the original words of the Daimyo of the Fire Country) to the Daimyo of the Wind Country who has never eaten good food.

It was natural for the Senju ninja, who was trusted by the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, to take on this kind of mission.

……

Three days later, the four finally saw the wall of the capital.

The city wall is the same khaki color as the desert, and is equipped with gates and towers.

The city gate is the passage in and out of the city. The soldiers guarding the city gate must pass their inspection before anyone entering or leaving the city.

There are also city guards on the towers. They observe, patrol and defend from high altitudes, and can quickly provide support and notify the city if any unusual situation occurs.

After the soldiers guarding the city carefully checked the pass, several people were led directly by the city guard officials to the Ministry of War, which was responsible for the defense of the capital.

After explaining his purpose, Senju Butsuma took out the winter melons from the scroll one by one in front of a group of soldiers and garrison ninjas.

The three children who came for the first time were a little surprised by the unusually strict inspection of the Kingdom of Wind.

When entering the city, they must match the pass with their own identity exactly, and quickly explain the reason for coming to the capital of the Wind Kingdom and the length of their stay. When they hear that they are commissioned by the nobles of the Fire Kingdom and want to meet the Daimyo of the Wind Kingdom, they immediately contact their superior, the Minister of War, who will be able to respond immediately and mobilize sufficient forces to be prepared.

Every detail emphasizes that the capital city is on high alert.

Qianshou Buddha took out all the winter melons, then spread his hands to indicate that he had no more.

The Minister of War waved his hand and sent people to take away all the winter melons. "Sorry, it's our duty. Although you are envoys, we still have to check if there is anything else hidden in these melons."

Senju Buddha nodded, "I understand. We are all doing this for the safety of the adults."

The military minister's serious face, like a city wall blown by sandstorms for a hundred years, also softened. He admired the knowledge and interest of the ninja opposite him and was willing to explain a few more things to him.

"Your melons are for eating, so we will inspect them and send them directly to the Imperial Household Ministry. The Imperial Household Ministry will cut them open and test for poison. Only after they are confirmed to be free of poison can they be sent to the daimyo."

Qian Shou Fo Jian sighed a little, "As expected of you, the inspection is quite strict."

Feeling the cooperation of the Thousand-Handed Buddha, the Minister of War simply did them a favor and pointed them to a hotel in the capital that had a good reputation and a decent living environment, and promised that he would send someone to notify them immediately if there was any news coming out of the palace.

……

With the guarantee from the locals, the four of them checked into the hotel. From the small window, they could still see the yellow buildings and roads, but they could also see lush green plants in the shadows of the buildings.

Houses in the Kingdom of Wind usually have thick walls and low structures to protect them from strong sunlight and erosion by sandstorms.

The few of them quickly checked and confirmed that there were no secret moves left by other ninjas in the house. Senju Butsuma also carved a soundproof sealing array in the house. After everything was done, they felt at ease and prepared to rest.

Duofu quickly took off his coat that had been rolling in the sand for several days, and jumped onto the bed. "The Wind Country is really careful. We checked several items along the way. No wonder no one wants to do business with them. It's like being a thief."

Senju Fushima explained to the children, "It's just that the national conditions are different. The ninjas here are good at using puppets and poison needles and poisons. If you don't check carefully and let a puppet in, or let someone bring a bag of poison, then this city will become a deserted city overnight."

"There is no need for any other tricks. As long as the city's water source is polluted with dirty things, no matter if they are princes or nobles or ordinary people, they will all die."

"Yes, there is only one source of water here, unlike our place where there are many rivers."

But what Qianshou Fujian didn't say was that he had been to the capital of the Wind Kingdom to carry out a mission, and the inspection at that time was far less strict than it is today.

I'm afraid someone might be trying to do something recently...

"Hurry up and get some water to wash up. This store charges so much, they should at least provide some water for washing up."

Senjubutsu patted Kyojuro's shoulder.

Although there was plenty of drinking water on the road and I could even cut a cold melon when I had nothing to do, I really couldn't stand not taking a shower for a few days.

.........

Two days later, Thousand-Handed Buddha saw the eunuchs brought by the minor officials, and he knew that the purpose of his visit had been half achieved.

He gave the three children some instructions and then left alone with the eunuch.

Uchiha You was a little nervous, but more excited. This was the first time he was able to move freely out of the sight of adult ninjas.

"This means we've been recognized! Do you want to go out for a walk?"

Duofu agreed with both hands, "Let's go, let's go. It's a rare opportunity to come here, it's not right to stay in the hotel!"

The two looked at Kyojuro from left and right.

Pika~

Kyojuro just looked at his two teammates with amusement. When they first met, they were trying to trip each other up, but now they know how to cooperate to cause trouble.

"Then let's go!"

"Great!!!"
