Naruto: red makeup and blood
Chapter 72 The Negotiation Under the Tower
When Muxue and Yuecheng finally had enough food and drink, they looked up at the sky and finally decided to head for the center of the Death Forest—that is, the tower.
"Hurry up and finish it, go back and rest!" While walking fast, Mu Xue rubbed his shoulders that were a little sore from the barbecue.
Of course, in this place where there are enemies everywhere, no candidates will notice the two of them, but anyone with a discerning eye will know the result of confronting them when they see their speed.After all, it's still early before the end of the exam. Instead of grabbing these two strong players, it's better to wait for a relatively weak team to succeed in one fell swoop.
But they never imagined that Mu Xue and the others were not candidates at all, and if they forcefully rushed forward, they would end up in a very miserable end.
So, except for a few wild beasts that came out to look for food, they didn't encounter anyone blocking the way at all.But since the two of them were already full, they ruthlessly ignored the beast...
By the time they arrived outside the tower, it had only been three hours since the exam started.
Mu Xue looked up at the tower, scratched her head involuntarily, and said to herself: "There was no such thing here back then! Wouldn't the scroll be more difficult to find in this way?" Because she vaguely remembered the The seal scroll was buried in the soil, and now a tower has been built on it, so is it possible to dismantle the tower first and then find the scroll?In that case, wouldn't the movement be too loud?
Yuecheng began to stretch his muscles, and said as if applying: "How about it? Do you want me to dismantle it?"
"Don't!" Mu Xue hurriedly stopped, and at the same time sighed that the way of thinking of the wolf demon was more and more similar to her own.He whispered again: "Just a little attention, there may be something like a camera near here, and our actions will be transmitted back to the headquarters accidentally. Therefore, the plan to demolish the tower does not need to be carried out. There is too much movement, say Maybe Konoha's Anbu rushed over before the demolition was finished. I think I should look for other ways to find the scroll." After that, he began to carefully patrol around the tower.
"What else can I do?" Yuecheng rolled his eyes: "Should we dig a hole to hide the scroll?"
As soon as Mu Xue stopped walking, she turned her head to look at Yuecheng approvingly, and sighed: "That makes sense!" Then she began to look for something around the tower, bending down to knock on those stone slabs from time to time.
"Is it really necessary to dig a hole?" Yuecheng's intestines were full of regrets. He really didn't want to participate in such a secret and hard work of digging a hole.But looking at the current situation, if excavation is really necessary, he must be the earth mover.So he lowered his head and covered his face with his hands, and said: "Well... I'm going to drink water in the river that I just passed, which is about a mile away from here!" As soon as the words fell, he ran away without a trace.
Because Mu Xue was looking for something very seriously, she didn't notice Yue Cheng's actions at all.Just as Yuecheng walked away, Muxue knocked on a stone slab, and the sound was very hollow, so she was overjoyed: "I found it!" Then she turned her head: "Huh? Where is my wolf?" Then she let out a sigh of relief and said to herself To himself: "That's not what I meant when I said digging a hole!"
After saying this, Mu Xue slowly tried to lift the stone slab, and there was indeed a secret passage leading directly to the ground, and it was so dark that it was impossible to see the road conditions clearly.Mu Xue fumbled in the ninja bag, took out a candle-shaped thing, took another deep breath, jumped into the secret passage, and then covered the stone slab back to avoid being discovered by others.
When the stone slabs were tightly covered, the secret passage instantly became pitch black.Mu Xue twisted on the candle-shaped thing, and there was a green light on it, which looked like a fluorescent stick.She just used this kind of light to shine on the road, walking forward bit by bit.
After walking in more than ten steps, Mu Xue understood.It turned out that after being sealed that time, the two scrolls were not touched at all.Perhaps it was to facilitate the replacement of the seal, so the tower above was built with the foundation raised, and a passage was specially built to lead to the seal scroll.
Mu Xue began to sneer in her heart, originally this scroll was hidden, and ordinary people couldn't find a place to hide it.But once this secret path is built, wouldn't you find something incredible just by following it?
However, Mu Xue's thoughts were dispelled after seeing what was in front of her.He couldn't help thinking to himself: "No wonder you are not afraid of being discovered. It turns out that even if you know where the seal is hidden, no one will get it!"
Further forward, there is a wooden door covered with charms used to set up barriers.It seems that this enchantment is still very complicated, no matter what method is used to remove it, it will be discovered by the person who set the enchantment.Therefore, this is fundamentally only those who come to check the sealed scroll can pass, because they can enter and exit smoothly even if they are discovered.
However, they have come to the sealed scroll in this way, and they are only one step away from the plan. Should they just give up like this?Mu Xue is not such a person, she whispered: "What's wrong with being discovered? Could it still trap me?" Saying that, she reached out to tear those talismans.
Just when her hand was about to touch the talisman, another person grabbed her outstretched hand and said seriously, "Don't move!"
Mu Xue raised the corner of her mouth, "Kakashi, you still decided to follow me! Even Alice can't keep you out." Then she pulled her hand back, turned her head and smiled meaningfully: "So, you did eavesdrop on our plan! So, Hokage-sama already knows the whole thing, and must be secretly hunting us now!"
"Well~" Kakashi squinted and smiled: "I haven't had time to tell anyone! So, if you kill me here, no one will destroy your plan! But I want to remind you!" He pointed to the spell on the wooden door: "This is not an ordinary enchantment. Not only can it be sensed by the person who set the enchantment the moment you tear it off, but it will also move at least ten teams of Anbu over! So ..."
With lingering fear in her heart, Mu Xue glanced at the talismans again, but she was still not ready to give in, and said, "What? Are you saying that I should thank you for saving my life?"
"That's not necessary!" Kakashi flashed to the wall of the passageway with a smile, his expression slowly became serious, and he said seriously: "Actually, there were some things that Hokage-sama didn't mean back then, so you have to think about it first. It's not being used by someone!"
"You mean..." When Mu Xue recalled what happened back then, she became angry and turned to Kakashi sarcastically, "Aren't those people who chased me back then Konoha's ninjas? I can see the forehead clearly, it is indeed the symbol of Konoha! A lot of people chased me to the battlefield one after another! I thought I would fight to the death with ninjas from the enemy country, but unexpectedly it was the ninjas from the village People are chasing me!"
After hearing this, Kakashi also felt very sorry, and said: "I understand your feelings very well. No matter who is treated like this, they will hate those who want to kill her. But... Although those people wear Konoha's forehead guard is really not a ninja sent by Naruto-sama. It is an organization "root" that exists in Konoha like Anbu, and their leader is a group of people called Danzo. The ninja of the village. Of course, he is also the one who drives those seemingly incompetent families out of Konoha!"
It was the first time Mu Xue heard about such an organization, she was stunned for a moment, and asked very vigilantly: "You are not trying to play me off, are you? Just relying on your one-sided words, can you let me give up the idea of revenge on Konoha? ?”
"Of course not!" Although Kakashi only showed one eye, his expression was extremely serious, and he continued: "From a long time ago, the responsibility of 'Gen' was to assassinate all those who are against the Nation of Fire and Konoha Village. People who are disadvantaged. Therefore, the death of Yilong and Lin became the reason for assassinating you. But because you never showed your ability in front of outsiders at that time, and other people didn't know you very well, so Danzo I thought you were just an ordinary ninja, and you could complete the task of killing you with a team of ninjas. But during the war, those teams of ninjas went out and there was no news. Danzo only thought that he was killed by ninjas from other countries, but It never occurred to me that they died at your hands."
On this point, Mu Xue has been suspicious ever since he was hunted down, how could such a sensible person as Hokage send so many ninjas as cannon fodder?They should be able to do more missions that are more conducive to the war.So, after listening to what Kakashi said, she began to waver.
"Is there any evidence?" Mu Xue's tone softened, but Kakashi's three-inch tongue alone would not be able to completely dispel her doubts.
Kakashi reached out and took out a thin scroll from the ninja bag, and said: "The evidence has been there a long time ago, but there is no chance to hand it over to you." Then, he handed the scroll to Mu Xue.
Mu Xue took the scroll to look at it, her name was clearly written on the outside, and it looked very old.Open the scroll, and there are photos of yourself printed in it, and all the information about yourself and the reason why you will be destroyed are recorded in detail.
"Noma Muxue, low-level forbearance, no blood successor and no extraordinary ability. Due to personal reasons, both parents died, the village doctor Oshinohara Lin, and the rare blood successor owner Zebei Yilong died unexpectedly. This scourge is not enough to survive, it should be punished by heaven!"
With a trembling voice, Mu Xue finished reading the records above, and then stared at the seal at the bottom which belonged to "root", gnashing her teeth with hatred.
"This is something I got by accident when I entered Anbu ten years ago. Because it has expired, it doesn't need to be kept secret anymore, so I put it away!" Kakashi explained the origin of this scroll.
"This catastrophe is not enough to survive..." Mu Xue sneered at herself as she recited these words silently.Finally, he ignored those spells and the sealed scrolls inside, turned around and walked outside.Only one sentence was left to Kakashi: "That's all I believe in you!"
"Wait!" Kakashi called her again.
Mu Xue sighed, handed over the thin scroll, and said, "Okay, I'll return it to you!"
"No, that's not what I meant!" Kakashi walked over slowly, hesitantly saying, "A while ago, what happened in the Kingdom of Waves...do you still remember?"
As soon as Mu Xue heard this, she lifted her foot and left, saying: "I didn't remember anything!" Then she took the fluorescent stick and walked towards the exit...
"Hurry up and finish it, go back and rest!" While walking fast, Mu Xue rubbed his shoulders that were a little sore from the barbecue.
Of course, in this place where there are enemies everywhere, no candidates will notice the two of them, but anyone with a discerning eye will know the result of confronting them when they see their speed.After all, it's still early before the end of the exam.
