Red sand dust

There are no windows or doors, only the lifting platform on the ceiling that occasionally opens and closes to deliver some daily necessities.

Occasionally, when two female members of the Shadow Guard help deal with some girls' private matters that are not known to outsiders, Xianglin will try to get close to them. Unfortunately, the well-trained sand ninja will not be pitiful because of spying on the target. performance will reveal certain information to it.

Obviously, this is an underground secret room.

With such close surveillance, Xiang Rin estimated that the dangerous Daimaru and Kazekage Fifth Daime had kidnapped him, and had no intention of letting other people in Sunagakure Village know about it.

Even though she couldn't hide the fear in her heart, Xianglin didn't worry too much about her own safety.

The bloodline secret skill Kagura's Eye is not only a secret skill to detect chakra, but also gives Xianglin the survival instinct to hide his own chakra, seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and survive in desperate situations.

This is a genuine "strong luck" super-sense, and it is an important support for this little red-haired girl who has suffered a lot since childhood to survive until now.

In addition, the mysterious "mind's eye" also gives Xianglin a certain degree of ability to identify lies.

Although she lost her freedom, what Gaara said was not felt by Xianglin to be a lie.

There was also Daimaru, who would attack whenever they disagreed. From the first time they met during the Chunin Exams to the time they reunited not long ago, he had never really hurt him.

"It's true that you need help if you have something to do!" 』

What's more, he didn't feel that he would be in danger, which also calmed Xianglin's mind a lot.

In the basement where he was placed, in addition to daily necessities, there were also many books for him to read and entertain himself.

Xiang Rin, who has been accustomed to surviving in adversity since she was a child, is just waiting for Daimaru or Gaara to arrange herself without any reason.

Outside the basement, Daimaru, who saw Kaoru's performance through the surveillance camera, and Gaara, who came to see the progress of the plan after handling official duties, were communicating in a low voice.

"I thought you had successfully convinced her!"

"Let's talk about it after she calms down! It's better to force her to cooperate than to cooperate willingly! Although there is resistance, although it won't affect too much, it is still a hidden danger..."

"Isn't it time?"

"Um!"

Daimaru nodded and responded,

"This is a girl who appears submissive but is actually quite independent. Her past experiences make it difficult for her to trust other people..."

Apart from the obvious tendency to be infatuated with Uchiha Sasuke, Xianglin has no sense of belonging to any party.

The grass ninja village that tortured his mother to death gave Xiang Rin painful memories.

In her mind, the Konoha ninja and Suna ninja were probably just like passers-by. Daimaru was just someone she met after a few interactions, and there was nothing special about them except for their strength.

For Orochimaru and Yakushi Kabuto, they were probably more afraid than in awe.

After Gaara was silent for a while, he tentatively asked:

"Is it possible for her... to accept the asylum of our Sunagakure Village?"

Although Sunagakure Village is not as powerful as Konoha Village, the Country of Wind is far less wealthy than the Country of Fire, and the living environment is a bit harsh, it is still much stronger than the Country of Grass.

"You are happy to see the hunter, but do you cherish your talent?"

Gaara asked this, he must have made up his mind to take him in. The question is whether Xiang Rin is willing to join Sunagakure Village.

Even so, Sunagakure Village has not fallen to the point of "forcibly naturalizing" ninjas from other villages. Xiang Rin is willing to be the best Sunagakure, and will not force him if he doesn't agree.

"It's unlikely, but...who can say for sure what will happen in the future?"

Chasing Uchiha Sasuke ended up delivering his wife's baby, which was indeed a miserable end.

Due to the influence of Daimaru, the love-at-first-sight heroic rescue event in the Forest of Death in the second Chunin Exam did not happen. Now Kaoru is purely attracted by Uchiha Sasuke's handsomeness, and perhaps a little "colleague" friendship. .

Having been together on and off under Orochimaru for nearly a year, there has not been a qualitative change in "love grows over time".

Compared to the memory of life and death, Xiang Rin's current obsession with Uchiha Sasuke is not necessarily that deep.

"What's the difficulty?"

Gaara asked a little disappointed.

"Not attractive enough..."

"That's right! I'm not mature enough and I'm not good enough. Sand Hidden Village doesn't have the foundation to attract outside talents to join..."

"The fact that the village itself doesn't have many highlights is one thing, but that's not the whole story..."

Daimaru glanced at his brother-in-law beside him, shook his head and explained,

"The bond... is too superficial! There is no one in Sunagakure Village who would make her willing to stay and take root here!"

These crooks in Sunagakure Village are probably hard to catch in the eyes of Kaoru. Gaara does have a handsome face, and his cold temperament is not much worse than Uchiha Sasuke, but his brutal performance in the Chuunin Exam is really... It's too eye-catching.

There are too many stories of denying a person and killing a relationship because of the first impression.

"I understand! Family, friendship, and love must all be recognized, otherwise, Sunagakure Village will not be able to keep her heart..."

“It’s so hard to talk about a sense of belonging!”

Daimaru scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.

"I tried my best to give her a good impression of Sunagakure Village. As for the result... don't have too much hope!"

Taking her away from Sasuke Uchiha, whom she had been with day and night, and locking her up underground without seeing the light of day, she probably wouldn't be able to be free for a while in the future. It was not an easy task to prevent Kaoru from being prejudiced against Suna Ninja.

…

Two days later, Xianglin, who was slightly accustomed to the life of confinement, was finally brought to a spacious stone pillar hall by two female ninjas. The walls, floor and ceiling were painted with dense formation patterns.

In the center of the hall, there were two chairs, one of which sat Daiwan, who was looking through documents.

Xiang Lin calmly sat down opposite Daimaru after realizing something.

"I've been very busy lately, which delayed the meeting!"

Stopping what he was doing, Daimaru raised his head,

"It seems that you have calmed down a lot. We can talk about business now..."

"Please tell me! If I can help, I will definitely not refuse, but please don't let me separate from Sasuke..."

"Your physical healing is a very powerful innate ability. We need it to provide a lot of vitality! Don't worry, we are not idiots like grass ninjas. Your mother's tragedy will not happen to you! As for your request, we will not They will deliberately interfere, but... they will need your assistance for a relatively long time, ranging from three months to half a year, after which they will let you go..."

"so long?"

A woman's faith can penetrate rocks, and she should work unremittingly from morning to night for love. A separation of three to five months, or even half a year, is really hard to bear.

After looking at Xiang Rin's face, Daimaru smiled and said:

"Of course, we won't let you work in vain, and you will receive appropriate remuneration! In addition, you can also make some requests, and we will meet them as appropriate..."
