My experience at Konoha Liver

"Hey, what's the matter with calling me?"

"Also, I don't know why, but I always feel that you look a little familiar, uncle!"

Naruto looked at Nara Shikaku carelessly and smiled heartlessly.

Nara Shikaku looked at Naruto's blond hair and couldn't help but feel a little ripple in his heart, but it didn't show on his face.

"It's Naruto. I came here this time to tell you something."

"Do you remember-"

Before Nara Shikaku finished speaking, Nobu Tsurama suddenly interrupted him.

"Okay, Mr. Shikaku, I will find a chance to talk to Naruto about this myself, so I won't bother you anymore."

Shikaku stopped talking and looked at Nobu Tsurama thoughtfully.

He Jianxin ignored his gaze and just said to Naruto who looked expectant:

"Okay, Naruto, I will tell you the specifics on the way."

"Now go back to the team."

An unhappy expression suddenly appeared on Naruto's face, and he muttered:

"What? You asked me to come here out of nowhere, and then asked me to leave mysteriously."

"It's so appetizing. It's too bad to believe you!"

But when he saw He Jianxin looking at him calmly, he suddenly stopped talking and had a subtle feeling.

Although he didn't understand what this feeling meant, he instinctively believed that Tsurama Nobu wanted him to leave for his own good.

so--

"Okay, just go back when you go."

Naruto left obediently, but when he returned to the team, he couldn't help but turn around and glance at Nobu Tsurama.

At this time, it was already time to set off.

"Then I'll take my leave, Mr. Shikaku."

He Jianxin held the scroll sealed by the Four Elephants in his hand and said goodbye calmly, as if nothing had happened just now.

But Nara Shikaku suddenly laughed and said softly:

"It seems that you are not planning to sacrifice Naruto."

He Jianxin had turned around at this time and did not answer.

Nara Shikaku stopped talking, just silently watching Nobu Tsurama and the members of the Blue Bird Brigade pass through the gate of Konoha.

When all the figures disappeared at the end of the road outside Konoha's gate, he turned around and left in a flash.

"Young man."

…

After leaving the village, Nobu Tsurama and the Blue Bird Brigade followed the road they took out of the village last time and headed north along the Nakatsu River.

Since they were not asked to escort by a caravan this time, their journey was closer to a normal ninja march.

Simply summed up in four words, it is ‘eating in the open air’.

Fortunately, Tsurujian Nobu can channel the giant horned deer at any time and quickly grow mushrooms.

After eating the boring marching meal, you can drink a bowl of warm mushroom heads and get some grilled mushrooms as a snack.

But after all, we are in the Country of Fire. Even if we spend most of our time in the wild, we will occasionally stop near the village to replenish some fresh food.

This kind of village that works at sunrise and rests at sunset often maintains a fixed rhythm of operation for decades and rarely communicates with the outside world.

When supplying supplies in such a village, there is basically no need to worry about information leakage.

But this time there was something unexpected.

When Nobu Tsurama and the men of the Blue Bird Brigade were stationed near this village that was supposed to be inaccessible, they discovered a lot of traces of outsiders' activities.

After observing the outskirts of the village, He Jianxin said:

"When things go wrong, there must be monsters!"

"We are stationed nearby tonight and must make sure that the changes in the village are not caused by the enemy."

"Shino, Ino, you two sneak into the village with me to take a look."

Shino and Ino stopped what they were doing to set up camp, and walked around with Shinobu Tsurama. After observing the passers-by, they used the transformation technique to transform into three middle-aged men dressed as businessmen and walked towards the village.

"So many kids!"

After entering the village, Ino followed the lurking course of the ninja school and looked at the people in the village calmly.

But she soon discovered something was wrong. The population structure of this village was very different from the normal situation taught in school.

And they are concentrated in the age group of five, six or seven years old.

And Shino also discovered something was wrong by quietly releasing the parasites.

"The bugs are restless, but not because of fear and vigilance, but--"

"Being restless because of happy things."

Nobu Tsurama looked strange at this time, similar to Shino and Ino. He also noticed something wrong with the village the moment he entered the village.

Because he felt a lot of mycelium in this village.

And they are the descendants of mycelium cultivated by him!

Combined with Ino's observation of the abnormal age structure, he was basically certain that it was the children from the Nakatsugawa Black Leg Group who came over.

"But that's not right. It's far away from the Nakatsu River. There's no way to use the river to sell wood."

"What are the people from the Black Shanks doing here?"

Although it was certain that the changes in the village were not caused by some lurking enemy, Nobu Tsurama couldn't help but feel a little curious.

Ino was also very interested in the changes here and said with a smile:

"I also feel very strange. The villagers here feel very warm."

"I don't have that cautious, vigilant, xenophobic feeling that comes from the countryside."

The three people continued to walk forward, and many villagers began to come up to talk to them, asking about the price of buying mushrooms.

However, the way of inquiry was a bit bold, and the price was reduced by one-third at every turn, without fussing at all.

And without any insinuations from Tsuruma Nobu and the others, the old man who came to sell mushrooms couldn't wait to share his recent life changes.

"Recently, with the help of those little priests, my family has gained a little more land. They also promised to open up ten acres of land in the forest for my family in the future."

"Because of this, the younger son finally doesn't have to go to the city to work for those noble people who eat people without spitting out their bones. The older son can also support his own family when he gets married in the future."

"I will never have any worries in my life."

"How can I not be happy?"

"As for these mushrooms, I've been vomiting after eating them recently. It's a pity that they will rot if kept for a long time."

"If you want it, just give me some money."

"By the way, today is the day when the shrine in the village is built. Do you want to participate in the evening ceremony together?"

In the end, Tsuruma Nobu and the others declined the invitation to attend the festival, but before leaving the village, they deliberately took a look at the shrine mentioned by the villagers.

Originally, He Jianxin and the others thought it would be a mushroom god or mycelium god.

But in the end, when I looked at it, I found that the wooden statue of the shrine was carved with a group of insects chewing on hemp rope.

"I always feel that it is somewhat similar to Shino's parasite."

Shino said nothing, but his eyes kept glancing at the 'little priest' who was busy in the shrine with a rosy face.

He had already recognized that he was one of several children who were tied to the Black Legs' camp in Ina City.

'Did you escape through your own efforts?'

'good!'
