Orochimaru's Allah's Lamp

Queen Loulan stood on the altar with a solemn expression.

Sarah came into contact with the Dragon Vein Consciousness for the first time, and the ability to guide its power to protect the people of Loulan was already the limit, and she could not do anything additional.

But Queen Loulan is different.

Since she was successfully connected to the Dragon Vein as a girl, she has not missed a single prayer in the following twenty years, and her spirit is highly unified with it.

During her previous shelter, she clearly sensed that this sandstorm was not a natural formation, but that there was something at the center of the storm.

That huge life breath even chases the dragon veins.

"Could it be that some kind of monster was born in this desert?"

Queen Loulan frowned, a trace of worry flashed in her eyes.

Judging from today's actions, the other party does not seem to have any malicious intent. It is not specifically targeting Loulan, but just walking by, it almost buried the people of this city.

"What should I do?"

The consciousness of Dragon Pulse is as ignorant as that of a child and lacks powerful attack capabilities. Therefore, Queen Loulan’s first thought was to hire Sunagakure ninjas, but she soon showed a wry smile.

"...Not to mention how to resist this monster that controls natural disasters with human power, even if there is such a person, how much reward should be paid."

The desert resources are scarce. Although Loulan is a rare oasis, it is not easy to maintain the lives of the people, and there is not much spare money to provide employment funds.

This monster in the yellow sand is not something Loulan can deal with alone.

"...The only solution for now is to pray that this monster will not pass by Loulan again."

Queen Loulan sighed, both Loulan and its patron saint could only settle in a corner, good at defense but not good at offense.

"However, we can inform Sunagakure about this matter."

A trace of thought flashed in Queen Loulan's eyes, "They don't have the protection of dragon veins. Once they encounter it, it will be a disaster. Maybe they will try their best to destroy the monster..."

"Her Majesty the Queen, with such a sense of luck, she is not a competent leader."

Queen Loulan was startled by the sudden sound. She raised her head subconsciously and saw a black spot quickly growing in size. In the blink of an eye, the owner of the sound came to her.

Queen Loulan took a few steps back, and a faint white light appeared on her body.

The other party came with bad intentions, but in the place where the sacrificial hall and the dragon's veins coincided, I felt a little more at ease and asked, "Who are you? This is not a place for you to run wild."

"Hey, news in a place like Loulan is really closed off. Do you want me to report my home status?"

Orochimaru twitched his lips, his smile a little troubled, "I am Orochimaru. Let's not talk about my identity in the ninja world. You shouldn't have much idea, but you just need to know that I controlled the storm just now."

"Impossible!" Queen Loulan said flatly, with obvious wavering on her face.

Through the perception of dragon veins, she could tell that the opponent was a very powerful ninja, but it could not be compared with the monster in the yellow sand. The strength was really far behind.

"Huh... maybe we should get here earlier."

Orochimaru grinned slightly, suddenly raised his sword fingers, and some eye shadow lines appeared on his face.

Queen Loulan suddenly felt that the other party's aura had changed, becoming closer to a dragon's veins rather than a normal ninja.

"Although it is still rare in quantity, you should be able to feel that there is no difference in essence."

Orochimaru licked his lips and said, "Let me introduce again. This is my clone. The main body is still doing the finishing work for the sandstorm."

"After all, if such a huge natural disaster is allowed to continue, I don't know what the consequences will be."

"..."

Queen Loulan looked very ugly.

She didn't want to believe that there were ninjas as powerful as monsters in the world, but all the clues so far were proving that what this man who suddenly appeared was telling the truth.

What's even more frightening is that this monster obviously has bad intentions and has some malicious intentions towards Loulan.

"What do you want?"

Queen Loulan's expression changed, she was silent for a moment, and said in a deep voice, "As you can see, Loulan is just a poor small village, and it has no ability to satisfy the appetite of a ninja like you."

Orochimaru chuckled lightly, "How could it be possible? There are treasures here that cannot be found even in the ninja world."

Sensing the other party's gaze, Queen Loulan's expression changed.

Naturally, she wouldn't think that the other person was talking about her, but apart from herself, there was only... Dragon Veins in the sacrificial hall.

"This is impossible." Queen Loulan said flatly, "The dragon vein is the lifeblood of the Loulan people. You have also seen that without the protection of the dragon vein, our people of Loulan would not be able to live in the desert."

Besides, Queen Loulan didn't believe that the other party could control the dragon vein at all.

Although the monster in front of her was able to control natural disasters, the reason why Loulan was in such a precarious state and was almost destroyed was because she was not capable enough as a controller.

But the power of dragon vein is more than that.

This man is obviously not satisfied with such a simple use of her, but if he uses other methods, it will inevitably trigger a riot in Dragon Vein.

No matter what the outcome of the confrontation between the two sides is, it will bring disaster to Loulan.

This oasis is extremely fragile and cannot withstand the fight between the two monsters, which is obviously unacceptable to Queen Loulan.

"Lord Orochimaru, you have the terrifying power to control natural disasters. You should be able to feel how incredible the dragon vein is,"

Queen Loulan looked serious and spoke sincerely, saying solemnly, "Your actions will not have any good results. Please give up this idea."

Queen Loulan has not read many books, but from those few historical materials, it is not difficult to find that the expansion of people's desires will always lead to bad consequences.

She also didn't understand why the other party was still coveting the power of dragon veins when he already had such great power.

"Haha, I don't need to bother Her Majesty the Queen with my affairs. If you have time like this, you might as well worry about those around you."

Orochimaru smiled strangely, and his body suddenly sank into the ground.

Almost at the same time, a figure ran all the way into the sacrificial hall, and at the same time shouted, "Mother, I have told everyone, and now they are leaving the shelter..."

As she said that, Sara noticed that Queen Loulan's face looked strange, and asked in confusion, "What happened?"

Queen Loulan's face changed slightly, she quickly gathered her mood, temporarily suppressed the distracting thoughts in her mind, and touched her daughter's head as usual, "I'm just a little tired."

"Oh, that's it." Although Sarah felt a little strange, she didn't think about it too much and nodded, "Controlling the power of the guardian is indeed very tiring. Mother should go back early to rest today."

"Mom also wants to go back and rest early." Queen Loulan smiled, "But there are still some things that need to be dealt with here. You go back first, and I will leave the dinner to you."

"Well... leave it to me." Sara wanted to stay here to help, but she didn't know what she could do. Compared to returning home, she could still play some role.

Watching Sara disappear at the door of the sacrificial hall, Queen Loulan already understood what Orochimaru wanted to do. She stared at the figure who reappeared with a very ugly expression on her face, "It's really despicable."

"Your Majesty the Queen, you seem to have misunderstood something. I never intended to threaten you with your daughter."

Orochimaru licked his lips and said with a smile, "That's too small an appetite. The real bargaining chip on the table is the lives of all the people of Loulan."

Queen Loulan's thoughts were confused and she didn't know what to say. She just stared and glared at the other party.

"Tsk...it seems like I said too much at once, so let's call it a day."

Orochimaru raised a finger and said with a smile, "Tomorrow morning, the time will be a few minutes earlier than today, and there will be a sandstorm."

"After that, let's continue talking about the deal."

"What did you say?" Queen Loulan's expression changed, "We can discuss the transaction now, Sandstorm..."

Before he finished speaking, Orochimaru had jumped up into the sky and disappeared along the wall of the patio.

Looking at the small sky above, Queen Loulan showed a wry smile, "The initiative in the negotiation... is completely controlled by the other party."

The strength of the two parties is not on the same latitude. She relies on the power of the dragon vein, but the other party has its own strong strength. It is understandable that this situation will occur.

But when things came to pass, Queen Loulan was inevitably a little disappointed, "Weakness is the original sin."

Slowly exhaling a breath of white air, she began to rack her brains to think of countermeasures.

The Loulan people hid here and avoided the disputes with the ninja world for many years, but now that trouble is coming, they can no longer hide away.

She must find a way out for the people of Loulan. This is her mission as the Queen of Loulan.

…

"This woman is a smart person."

Orochimaru stood on the outer wall of the tower, listening to the djinn describe what Queen Loulan did after he left, with a smile on his lips, "But her available chips are really too few."

Transactions in which both parties have needs and whose status and force are equal are the easiest to facilitate.

But now this one seems a bit abnormal.

On the one hand, Queen Loulan holds the control of the dragon veins, and during the subsequent operation, she has to play the role of calming the rioting natural energy, which is indispensable.

But at the same time, apart from these, the other party has almost nothing.

No matter what Orochimaru gave, he could definitely get it all back, because the end of the transaction also meant that Loulan lost his greatest self-protection power.

It can be said that whether he will fall out or not depends entirely on Orochimaru's character.

Character? Haha...

Thinking of this vocabulary, Orochimaru couldn't help but laugh. Although he did not intend to fall out this time, Queen Loulan must not believe it, and this would very likely lead to the transaction going too well.

"Tsk, let me find an ally for you."

Orochimaru smiled and disappeared into the yellow sand.

…

Sand Hidden Village, Kazekage Building Office.

Luo Sha, the fourth generation Kazekage, looked at the village's financial flow and looked a little unhappy.

Although I had made a small fortune through the commission to support Konoha in the past few days, it was only a drop in the bucket compared to the huge consumption of the village.

Not to mention, a gold-eating beast appeared in the village recently.

Thinking of this, Fengying Luosha sighed slightly.

The effect of the 'Physique Strengthening Surgery' is indeed outstanding. He was also a witness to the war between Konoha and the Akatsuki organization, and he knew very well that if the participants in the war were not mostly wooden ninjas, Konoha's losses would never be so slight.

Moreover, Orochimaru has provided a rare opportunity and is willing to perform surgery on the ninjas of the Land of Wind. Sunagakure Village must not miss this opportunity.

It can be seen that the strength of the ninjas in the village has improved a lot, but on the other hand, the village's funds have borne more burdens.

Sunagakure Village is poor, but for every operation, the village will provide corresponding subsidies, which makes the village's capital flow more and more tight, and the accounting data becomes more and more ugly.

But it's not possible not to do this, because Suna ninjas are also very poor. If they hope that they can save enough for the surgery, it is more likely that they would rather risk injury in order to save enough money.

After all, ninjas also have to live.

Kazekage Rasa thought of this, put down the documents and data in his hands, and turned to another person in the office, "Elder Qianyo, have the reconnaissance ninjas detected any new gold mines?"

As a Kazekage, there is no distinction between superior and inferior as long as it is done for the village, even if it is mining.

But even this kind of hard work cannot be done just because you want to do it. All the large and small mining areas within the two hundred miles radius of Sunagakure Village have been cleared by him over the years, and new mining areas are still being searched for.

in the process.

"Feng Ying, please be patient. It will still take some time."

Granny Chiyo shook her head, "I sent two more teams yesterday. I think we can gain something in a few days."

Feng Ying Luo Sha nodded slightly, but still urged, "Try to make their movements faster."

Grandma Chiyo frowned when she heard this, "The Kazekage has become a lot more impatient since he came back from Konoha. I also know that the organization is strong, but Konoha is currently taking care of it, so there is no need to be so anxious."

Kazekage Rasa was worried from the stabbing center, and couldn't help but shook his head, "That's not how the score was calculated. It is precisely because of the threat from the Akatsuki organization that Konoha is so generous and willing to let Orochimaru perform the surgery for us.

"

"And in the subsequent fight, no matter who of the two loses, it will not be so easy to reap benefits so easily."

Chiyo's mother-in-law was slightly startled and said with emotion, "Feng Ying has a lot of thoughts, and I am not as good as me."

Fengying Luosha shook his head slightly and did not take it seriously.

After all, Elder Chiyo is already very old, and his mental and physical strength has declined a lot. It is not surprising that he is not as good as his upright self in his prime.

Moreover, speaking of taboo matters, few ninjas live long lives. Grandma Chiyo doesn't know how many years she has left to live, so it's normal for her to be short-sighted about things.

"...We have to find other ways to bring in money for the village. We can't just rely on the gold mines in the desert. It's getting harder and harder to find these days."

When Fengying Luosha was thinking, the voice of a guard suddenly came from outside the office,

"Lord Kazekage, Lord Orochimaru of Konoha would like to see you."

"Asking to see you? What's the reason for his coming?" Feng Ying Luosha exchanged glances with Granny Chiyo. A trace of doubt flashed in his mind, and he said, "Invite him to come in."

"Yes!" the Sand Ninja guard responded.

Not long after, Orochimaru pushed the door open and walked in, smiling, "In the past two days, there seem to be a few Suna ninjas who have come to the operating room to look for me."
