A short old lady was cleaning in front of the curry house. Suddenly, a dark figure jumped out from the side and hugged the old lady.

"Granny Sansho, it's been a long time since we last met.……"

Granny Sanjiao finally reacted and looked at the young man in front of her clearly. She was also surprised and said,"Hey - it's Xiao Li. It's been a long time since we last met. Hahahaha……"

At this time, the three miners of Oxalis Gold Mountain turned around and looked at the hilltop in the distance. Tian Tian Ningci followed their gaze and looked

"That is the Oxalis Gold Mine……"A bald and strong miner sighed.

Naruto looked at the miner named"Rokusuke" and saw a hint of determination in his expression. Neji took the lead in the discussion and said that they should rest in the curry house for a night, and when everyone is well, they will formulate an attack and defense plan and set out early tomorrow morning.

Except for Rokusuke who remained silent, everyone else agreed.

Then, Lee asked Granny Sansho to cook the special curry that saved his life for everyone. Half an hour later, except for Lee, everyone else looked at the curry rice in front of them with bubbles coming out of it, which looked like black mud, with a constipated look on their faces, and they couldn't help sweating profusely.

"What the hell is this dark cuisine? Apart from the pungent smell, I can't smell anything else!" Naruto's face twitched unconsciously, and he kept complaining in his heart. He looked up at the expressions of others and knew that they should be thinking the same as him, of course, except for Xiao Li.

Xiao Li shouted excitedly:"This is the life curry specially made by Granny Sansho. Everyone, come on and eat, I'm starting to eat!"

After that, he put his hands together to perform table etiquette, picked up the spoon and scooped up a spoonful of rice mixed with black curry and put it into his mouth.

As Xiao Li chewed carefully and swallowed slowly, Xiao Li's face quickly turned light purple, and then his face deepened again, and in the blink of an eye it turned purple-red.

"Ah, it's so delicious——"Xiao Li shouted, picked up the plate and began to wolf it down. At this moment, his face had turned blood red.

Everyone was sweating profusely. They really didn't know that such a good-looking and delicious curry could make Xiao Li eat so much.

However, with Xiao Li's leading example, everyone had no choice but to pick up a spoon and scoop a small spoonful, and put it into their mouths tremblingly.

In an instant, everyone's face turned purple-red. Except for Naruto, everyone else screamed and started coughing violently, and then frantically looked for water to drink.

Only Naruto felt the difference. At the moment when this hot curry like black mud slid from the esophagus into the stomach, he felt that his physique or vitality had been slightly enhanced.

This enhancement of vitality was extremely weak. If it weren't for the long-term use of the illusion space of the Ouroboros bracelet to practice, various perceptions would be strengthened.

Coupled with the inexplicable ability of the Ouroboros bracelet, Naruto was able to perceive such a slight change.

So, Naruto endured the spiciness and various indescribable seasonings and tasted it again.

When the curry rice was swallowed, the familiar feeling of increased vitality came again, but this time the enhancement was a little weaker than the first bite.

Naruto carefully felt it and found that the strength of the increase in vitality seemed to be only half of the first bite.

In order to verify his guess, Naruto drank a sip of water with sweat on his face to dilute the pain in his mouth and began to taste the third bite.

Obviously, the third bite of curry also increased Naruto's vitality a little bit, less than the second bite.

If it weren't for the feeling of increased vitality in the first two bites, Naruto would not have noticed the vitality increased by the third bite of curry alone.

Then, Naruto started to eat the fourth bite, and finally, Naruto himself could not feel the increase in vitality in this bite of curry.

Inexplicably unwilling, Naruto imitated Xiao Li and picked up the plate and began to scoop the curry rice into his mouth like a whirlwind.

Xiao Li and Sasuke on the side also noticed Naruto's eating habits.

Xiao Li said happily:"It seems that Naruto-kun also likes the taste of the Life Curry very much. Come on and eat it. It is a rare delicacy!"

Sasuke was a little puzzled. His taste had long been spoiled by Naruto. At this time, he couldn't understand why Naruto, with his excellent cooking skills, could eat this kind of curry with such relish. Is he risking his life?

However, after so many years of getting along, he also knew that if any of Naruto's actions were abnormal, there must be something very strange.

Seeing Naruto picking at the curry on the plate like a madman, Sasuke also made up his mind, blushing and imitating Naruto to show off the dark cuisine on the plate.

Due to the long-term absorption of Naruto's Ashura Chakra, Sasuke's physique has improved quite amazingly, and his perception is naturally not weak.

When he was about to show off the curry on the plate, Sasuke finally vaguely felt that his vitality had improved a little bit.

""How much?" Sasuke looked at Naruto in surprise and called out softly.

Naruto finished the food on the plate and began to sit quietly with his eyes closed. At this time, he finally sensed everything clearly.

The extremely weak life force spread from his abdomen to his whole body, but his body was like a ball filled with air, and it could not accommodate these external life forces at all.

Therefore, these weak life forces escaped from Naruto's veins and acupuncture points and dissipated outside the body quietly.

【Has it reached the limit of body absorption? It seems that this curry is not simple. I didn't expect that such an inconspicuous little curry house could make such a shocking dish. It seems that I have to find a chance to find out the specific reason. 】

After thinking, Naruto opened his eyes and saw Sasuke's surprised expression, and immediately understood Sasuke's general idea.

So he nodded slightly and gave Sasuke a wink, asking him to wait until he went to the guest room to rest and then explain it to him in detail.

At this time, Xiao Li communicated with Grandma Sansho and asked where Grandma Sansho's son"Mustard" was.

Grandma Sansho said that since Mustard saw Xiao Li's unremitting perseverance and tenacious will, he couldn't stand her nagging and preaching to him about Xiao Li, and ran away from home in anger.

It seems that he ran to the Oxalis Gold Mountain and joined the Black Shovel Family of Black Hoe Lei Ya.

Hearing this, Xiao Li felt ashamed and expressed his willingness to help Grandma Sansho find her son and let Mustard come back obediently.

After saying this, Naruto, against his conscience, praised the curry rice to Granny Sansho.

Granny Sansho immediately recovered from her sadness and smiled politely.

""Oh my, I was just tinkering around. Of course, it was my disappointing son who really made this curry. I didn't expect it to suit your taste so well. How about I serve you a plate?"

Naruto quickly said that he was already full and couldn't eat any more. If he added more rice, it would be a waste of food.

Granny Sansho was also a very frugal person. When she heard that it would waste food, she stopped forcing Naruto to add more rice. Naruto followed the clues and asked Granny Sansho about the cooking method of this special curry. After all, he was alone and often cooked for himself. In addition, Konoha was a long way from here. If he could learn this curry, he could cook for himself at ordinary times.

Granny Sansho said that it was no problem at all, and patiently explained to Naruto the whole process of cooking this special curry.

However, when talking about the main ingredients for cooking, Granny Sansho said that those foods All the ingredients were planted and raised by her herself.

Soft-shelled turtles, codonopsis, wolfberries, angelica, etc., were all raised and cultivated in the ponds and wastelands reclaimed behind her house close to the stream.

Hearing this, Naruto knew the reason. It seemed that there must be something unusual in the place where these ingredients were grown. He decided to go and have a look tonight. As it was getting darker, Granny Sansho also arranged accommodation for everyone. Naruto and Sasuke quietly created a shadow clone each and stayed here.

The original body avoided everyone's sight and quietly left to run to the back of the curry house.

After only a hundred meters, Naruto and Sasuke found the pond and vegetable garden reclaimed by Granny Sansho.

""Sas, use your Sharingan to look around and see if there is anything special."

On the way, Naruto had briefly explained to Sasuke the effects of Granny Sansho's special curry.

In short, the important source of improving vitality comes from the medicinal herbs and aquatic products such as turtles and loaches that Granny Sansho personally cultivated.

Sasuke also understood that it seems that their physique can only absorb a little vitality, and no more.

Naruto also said that perhaps after a series of exercises, the stored vitality in the body will be completely digested, or the body will grow for a while, it should be able to absorb more vitality.

In short, this Sansho... Grandma's vegetable garden must have unusual treasures. No matter what it is, even if he doesn't take it secretly, Naruto wants to see it and find out.

Sasuke opened the Sharingan that was about to evolve into a Mangekyo and carefully surveyed everything around him.

After a long time, when a strong sour feeling surged into his eyes, Sasuke finally saw an extremely weak chakra reaction at the bottom of the pond.

Sasuke immediately said to Naruto:"Well, I only found a trace of abnormal chakra reaction at the bottom of the pond, but it's too weak. I don't know if it's what we want."

""Oh, really? You take a rest first, I'll go down and take a look."

After saying that, Naruto took off all his clothes and dived into the bottom of the pond.

Following the coordinates that Sasuke had just pointed out, Naruto broke through the mud at the bottom of the pond. He soon touched a hard object, so he wanted to try to dig it out completely. However, as Naruto dug, he found that the object was getting bigger and bigger, from thin to thick, and the thick part seemed to be winding and extending to the ground of the vegetable garden next to it.

When he was puzzled, Naruto felt the touch of the object and felt that it was neither gold nor jade, but also like wood and stone.

In desperation, Naruto gathered chakra in his palm and cut with a water blade, cut off a small piece of the object, and then stood up and jumped out of the water.

With the bright moonlight, Naruto saw the object in his hand clearly. It was clearly a fossil, and this fossil should be the root of some kind of tree.

However, this kind of tree may have been nourished by chakra, making its roots like gold and stone.

After experiencing the invasion of countless years, it is still solid even if it turns into a fossil.

"Chakra, roots, trees?" Naruto suddenly thought of a possibility.

"Could it be the roots of the sacred tree planted by Kaguya Otsutsuki thousands of years ago? Otherwise, how can we explain what kind of tree can have such a huge root network, become a fossil, and still have a weak chakra left to nourish this small piece of soil and water?"

"What is this thing? It looks a bit like the fossils described in the book."Sasuke saw Naruto holding the unknown object and kept silent, so he couldn't help but ask.

"Remember the legend I mentioned to you that a thousand years ago, the goddess of the rabbit came and brought the seeds of the sacred tree. The sacred tree was planted, and it blossomed and bore fruit to settle the disputes."

At this point, Sasuke suddenly understood:"So, you suspect that this is the fossil of the legendary sacred tree?"

Sasuke had heard Naruto talk about the legend of the so-called goddess of the rabbit a long time ago, and he also knew a little about the rumors of the Six Paths Sage.

And Naruto also stated that no matter what kind of story or rumor it is, it will never come out of thin air for no reason.

Since Naruto said that the fossil in his hand might be the root or trunk of the legendary sacred tree, it must be a good thing.

"Do we need to dig out all the fossils of the sacred tree below?"Sasuke is also very fond of this kind of sacred object.

Moreover, eating food nourished by the chakra of the fossil of the sacred tree can also enhance vitality. Just for this reason, Sasuke wants to take the fossil of the sacred tree directly.

Naruto shook his head.

"There is no need, and I have also found out through experimentation that our bodies can only absorb very little vitality. In other words, if it weren't for our extraordinary physical fitness, other people might not be able to absorb that little vitality."

"Moreover, in my opinion, we can only absorb the extra vitality when our strength improves or our age grows a little bit. This improvement is actually useless for you and me at present."

"Then just leave it here and don't care about it?" Sasuke's tone was slightly regretful. Naruto waved his hand calmly:"It doesn't matter. Besides, if we can dig out the fossil of the sacred tree and destroy the planting environment here, it will definitely attract the attention of interested people. It is better to bury the fossil here intact. Every once in a while, we can come here to eat a special curry to replenish this special vitality, and it will not arouse any suspicion."

Sasuke nodded repeatedly in agreement when he heard this. The two looked around, looked at the pond that was gradually becoming clear again, and then turned and left.
