My Hidden Road

Mr. Shigui obviously did not believe Naoto's words. Perhaps he had seen that Naoto did not want to get involved in this matter, but Mr. Shigui still took out the money that he had prepared for a long time.

"This is my little savings. Thank you for rescuing Yang Yong. Goodbye."

Naoto pushed away the banknotes in Mr. Shigui's hand and said, "You're welcome. I'm grateful to you for taking care of me during the two days I stayed here. As for the money, please take it back."

"this······"

"No reward for no merit. I didn't save Yang Yong. I found him on the roadside."

Rejecting Mr. Shigui's gift of thanks flatly, Naoto walked straight into the night. Don't cause trouble. You can't fight against the evil cult now, and it's important to save your life.

Leaving the village, Naoto walked into the forest. All kinds of snakes, insects, rats, and ants came out in the forest at night. For safety reasons, Naoto jumped up a big tree and stood on the top of the tree trunk, overlooking the entire forest. There was a light of fire on the mountainside in the distance.

Perhaps it was the sacrificial ceremony that the two believers were talking about.

On the other side of the mountainside, a group of firelights advanced along the river bank, aiming directly at the sacrificial ceremony site on the mountainside. What a pity for this peace-loving and friendly village.

"The target area is ahead, please be careful now."

There was a sound under the tree. When Naoto looked down, it turned out to be a ninja team discussing a plan. It was not a very strong team, otherwise it would be impossible for him to discover it. However, the evil sect's arrest of civilians for sacrifice was the news just now.

How did these people know that it came out?

"The Evil God Cult has killed many civilians. This time we must annihilate them in one fell swoop. Do you understand?"

"Yes." Two young voices responded.

"Set off!"

It turns out that the Evil God Cult has killed many people. Could it be that these ninjas are targeting them? These ninjas are said to be ninjas from that country?

Konoha? Or Sunagakure?

Probably none of them, maybe a ninja from Yuyin Village. Who cares, let him be.

Naoto sat on the tree trunk and watched the fire on the mountainside in the distance. A white light flashed across his eyes. Naoto fell backwards and hooked his legs on the tree trunk. A ninja sword slashed across the spot where he was before.

"Don't think that I didn't notice you, who are you?" Naoto used the moonlight to see clearly that the person who attacked him was indeed a ninja from Yuyin Village.

"Wandering Samurai."

"Yeah?"

Naoto, who was hanging upside down on the tree trunk, let go of his legs and fell to the ground. He turned around in mid-air and landed on the ground. It was very exciting, but the price was that Naoto felt that his legs were a little numb.

After landing, Naoto finally saw his attacker clearly. An adult and two kiddos, a boy and a girl, were all ninjas from Yunin Village. Naoto had heard in the Land of Rain that the ninjutsu system of Yunin was very different.

There is a special ninjutsu system that I have never had the opportunity to experience.

"You have such strength to discover me, who are you?"

Naoto looked at the man who appeared in front of him. He had long hair and a tall figure, holding a ninja sword in his hand. The two boys and girls behind him were a little nervous, and they were shaking a little with the kunai in their hands.

"A wandering ninja from the Land of Rain, wouldn't it be too rude of you to attack suddenly?"

"Who told you to sneak up there and eavesdrop!"

Naoto was immediately displeased: "I'm the one who sat up there and watched the scenery first. Can you please tell me some truth? We are all people from the Land of Sichuan who love peace. I didn't expect it to be so unbearable."

"Okay!"

The man raised his palms unhappily and said, "I'm sorry. I thought you were a spy from the Evil God Sect, so I attacked you. I'm really sorry. My name is Kido, a Jonin from Yunin Village."

"Naoto Sekikawa is wandering around now."

"Are you not from the Evil God Cult?"

Naoto took out the necklace of the Evil God Cult from his pocket and said jokingly: "I'm sorry, I think I am."

"Asshole, how dare you lie to me!" Kido pretended to raise his ninja sword to attack Naoto, and the two brats looked at them nervously.

"Slow down, it's just a joke, don't take it seriously."

"joke?"

Naoto kept throwing up the necklace and said: "I am not a member of the Evil God Cult, but I know some information about the Evil God Cult. I took this from them conveniently."

"Have you been in?" Kido asked in surprise.

"What's so difficult about it? Just say something nice and go in, and have a cup of afternoon tea by the way."

"So easy?" Kido couldn't believe it.

Naoto spread his hands and said, "It's that easy."

"Can you tell us some internal information about the Evil God Cult? Please."

"Give me money to work." Naoto promptly started working as an information dealer.

"You want more money?"

"You are paid for performing tasks, why can't I receive money for selling information?"

Quito gritted his teeth and said, "How much?"

"Ten thousand taels."

"so much?"

Naoto rolled his eyes at him: "You can leave if you don't like it, I'm leaving."

"etc."

Kido took out his wallet and counted ten thousand-yang bills to Naoto. If he could exchange the money for some information, it would be worthwhile. After all, he needed to bet his own life to perform the mission. But Kido made a mistake and Naoto went.

It is the stronghold of the Evil God Cult upstream, and he has never been to the downstream strongholds.

After spitting on his finger, Naoto counted the money several times before he took back the money with satisfaction and threw the Evil God Necklace to Quito.

"The Evil God Cult captured many people as sacrifices in the village ahead. You can enter at will with the necklace. How about the price?"

Kido pointed to the two teenagers behind him, "I have two more people."

"Dingling bell~~~", two necklaces fell from Naoto's hands. They were taken from the two evil cult members. After finishing three necklaces, Naoto thought they were of no use.

"Thank you."

"Hey, hey, hey." Naoto protected the necklace behind his back. Kido was a little puzzled for a moment when he saw Naoto protecting his necklace behind his back.

"People nowadays like to be sentimental. Necklaces cost money to buy. Can you just go anywhere and see if someone will give you something for free?"

Kido said angrily: "Didn't I give you money?"

"Yes!" Naoto retorted: "I will also give you information and a necklace that can sneak in. What else do you want to do?"

"How much!"

"A sincere favor of ten thousand taels, thank you."

Pay the money in one hand and deliver the goods in the other hand. The money and goods delivered will not be refunded.

"Bah!" Naoto spat on his fingers and squatted under the moonlight to count the money. He was happy that he had made another sum of money. Sooner or later, if he continued to earn like this, he would earn a billion taels.

Naoto would like to do this kind of business without capital every day, and it does not violate his conscience. Unlike Mr. Sigui's money, his conscience will be condemned after taking it.

"Hold on."

Before Kido led his two subordinates a few steps, Naoto called out to them again.

"Profiteer, what else do you want?"

"Ahem!" Naoto coughed twice and said, "I am a ninja. If you need anything, you can hire me. The price is negotiable. I will wait for you here."

Quito was full of anger, "No need, you profiteer!"

Naoto was disappointed. He had kindly reminded them but did not thank himself. It was really annoying. He jumped up to the big tree, and continued to sit on the tree trunk and watch the fire on the mountainside in the distance. From time to time, he lowered his head and took out the banknotes he had just earned.

One count.
