Reborn Naruto, I rolled my eyes to the sky

Chapter 224: Loulan Survivors

The scene of the desert looks monotonous at first glance. The occasional sandstorms and the scorching sun make the environment here extremely harsh. Ordinary people simply cannot live normally here.

For ninjas, such conditions can be overcome, but places that are too desolate will not attract ninjas, so Fenglan and I moved northwest for three days and did not encounter any ninjas or civilians.

Feng Lan has mastered the method of guiding and refining chakra through hand seals during these three days. The efficiency of chakra practice has been greatly improved. However, she is still unable to introduce natural energy at the same time and fuse it into fairy chakra.

Of course, this is something that cannot be rushed. Natural energy is inherently unstable, and Fenglan's attributes are still the ethereal and unpredictable wind attribute and the explosive and violent thunder attribute. Only by slowly sensing and guiding them in the early stage can they be naturally integrated into the fairy chakra, and it will not be as dangerous as the fairy arts in the ninja world.

In fact, Fenglan’s current progress has already surprised me. After all, unlike the Hyuga clan who inherited Otsutsuki’s feather robe, ordinary ninjas are still a certain distance away from immortals in terms of both life energy and spiritual energy.

"Huh?" I suddenly sighed softly. In my sight, an oasis appeared in the endless desert. It seemed to be the size of an ordinary village, and people were walking in it.

"What's wrong, teacher?" The oasis was still quite far away from us. Feng Lan looked around and saw only yellow sand. She didn't know what I had discovered.

"There is a small oasis a few kilometers away. It looks like a village has been living there for a long time. Let's go and see if there is any news about the ancient city of Loulan." I pointed in the direction ahead and said to Feng Lan.

A few kilometers is not far for a ninja. Before long, Fenglan and I appeared at the edge of the oasis, which can also be said to be the entrance of this small village.

Maybe it’s because of the isolation or living habits, there are neither walls or fences like ordinary villages, nor guards or gatekeepers. Fenglan and I went straight in after we arrived.

Although it is called an oasis, there are actually not too many lush trees and grass. There are only scattered date palms and some bushes, with a few tents interspersed among them, and a few camels walking leisurely around.

Fenglan and I walked to a tent near the edge and asked, "Excuse me, is anyone there?"

In fact, with the ninja's perception ability, we naturally knew that there was someone in the tent, but we asked just to show politeness and kindness.

After hearing our words, the curtain of the tent was lifted up and an old man came out. He looked to be in his fifties and was wearing a blue robe from head to toe with a hood and scarf on the back, which was a common outfit in the desert.

"Dear guests from afar, it's windy outside, please come in." The old man saw Feng Lan and me. Although we were young, one was fifteen or sixteen years old and the other was only eleven or twelve years old, we were both dressed as ninjas. He did not dare to neglect us and invited us into the tent.

"Thank you, old man." Feng Lan and I said politely and followed the old man into the tent. The door curtain of the tent was not high, and one needed to bend down to enter and exit. The space inside was not big either, and it felt like it could only accommodate a bed and a table.

In addition to the old man who greeted us, there was also a child of three or four years old sitting on the bed playing. He blinked at us when he saw us come in.

The old man in the tent seemed to be one of the older people in this small oasis, so I asked in anticipation: "Old man, we are ninjas from afar. We heard about the legend of the ancient city of Loulan and want to find its ruins. Have you heard of the ancient city of Loulan?"

"The ancient city of Loulan?" As soon as I finished speaking, the old man showed a surprised expression. It seemed that he knew about it, or at least had heard of it.

"What a coincidence! Our small village was founded by people who migrated from the ancient city of Loulan." The old man said, "When my father was a child, he followed my grandfather, and some other people migrated all the way from the ancient city of Loulan and finally settled here."

The old man showed a reminiscing expression: "My father said that the ancient city of Loulan was also a prosperous and fertile place before, but then the natural environment became increasingly harsh, earthquakes occurred frequently, and yellow winds raged. Many people migrated away, and now it's hard to say whether the ancient city of Loulan still exists."

Unexpectedly, we were so lucky that we got the news of the ancient city of Loulan so easily. I continued to ask: "Do you know the exact location of the ancient city of Loulan? We still want to see this legendary place with our own eyes."

The old man thought for a while, shook his head and said, "My father told me when I was a child that they came from the west of this oasis. A team of several hundred people rode camels for about twenty days and nights and finally found this oasis and settled here. But I have never been to the ancient city of Loulan in person, so I don't know if it is correct."
