The old man poured a pot of tea brewing on the table into Zhixue's tea cup and said, "Little girl, thank you for saving our village from being buried by the hillside. If you didn't come to stop it this time, ,I am afraid……"

"UuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuniniuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuThe village will become an uninhabited, deserted area. By that time, it doesn’t matter if I die, but my children and grandsons will have to leave this acre of land and go to the drifting countries." Life, oh oh oh, it’s such a pity that I have struggled for most of my life and can’t let them live a stable and peaceful life..." The old man said half-truthfully with a hint of mourning.

Zhixue:……

Why does this old man smell like Dazna?

Ding, trigger the hidden selection task.

Hidden mission name: The devil who sealed himself away.

Mission introduction: I just learned the magic of immortality and was about to return to Konoha to reunite with my brother. I met Jugo in his childhood by chance. Although his curse seal is of little use to you, the villagers seem to learn from you. I see hope in coping.

Solution 1: Kill Zhongwu, mission reward: Heaven's Curse Seal Mode.

Solution 2: Let Jugo follow you, become a powerful assistant and become a cage to restrain him, but this will arouse Konoha's high vigilance, and even lead to Danzo's pursuit and difficulty. Mission reward: A trustworthy assistant with a hard fist.

Treatment method 3: Fill Chongwu's body with celestial energy to replace the violent curse energy, and teach him to initially control his personality and natural energy. Mission reward: a loyal fan outside. (Chonggo is very grateful to you for being able to control the power, but you don’t seem to want him to stay with you.)

Looking at these three solutions, Zhixue passed the No. 1 solution at first glance. This is too extreme. She is not a murderer, and the rewards are not satisfactory. After she has learned the Ryūchi Cave Immortal Technique, why does she need a crudely processed product like a curse seal? Not to mention that the prerequisite for the curse seal transplantation is to be Orochimaru. A bite on the neck made Zhixue even more unacceptable.

The second option is not very good either. If you bring a stranger into the village without being suspected, it would be weird. Danzo is such a bitch, he might cause some trouble. Pass.

It seems that there is only the third one that can be used, but it will probably take a lot of time to teach Jugo to control his strength and personality. A subordinate who is outside can make a small use of it.

To use the power of the curse seal to make some extra money or something, ahem, she is definitely not a shady boss, she just wants to show Jugo a path.

After deciding on the route, Zhixue finished eating, discussed with the old village chief, and was taken to the place where Zhongwu was unconscious. This place was more like a dungeon than a room, a deep underground place. There are a few steps along the way, and the interior is isolated from the outside world by several huge natural stone pillars. However, normal people can still pass through it diagonally. A little lolita like Zhixue can probably pass through it if they are stacked together. , but this is not necessarily the case for Chongwu who has been transformed into a curse.

"Little girl, are you really capable of getting rid of the monster on Libra?" Arriving at the door of the "dungeon", the old village chief couldn't help but said to Zhixue beside him.

"I dare not say anything about getting rid of it, but there is a chance of success. Old village chief, just wait for my good news."

"Okay, okay, if you are really capable of this, I, I will give you all the chickens raised by my family." The old village chief said with some excitement.

He had grown up watching Libra, so naturally he didn't agree with the villagers' vicious plot, but if Libra made such a fuss a few more times, the people in the village might really stop being wandering beggars.

It's better to beg on the roadside than to live in fear every day and possibly die, isn't it?

After watching the old village chief leave, Zhixue stepped into the dungeon step by step and looked at the little boy chained in the darkness.

He didn't seem to have woken up at this time. He was probably knocked unconscious by Zhixue's previous slam, which had drained away his natural energy and forced him into contact with the curse seal.

At this time, Zhixue slowly walked towards Zhongwu's position. The pale white light and pattern that appeared before appeared on his body again. He put his small hand on Zhongwu's shoulder, and his huge perception ability detected the past of Zhongwu's body...

Chapter 48, Guidance

When Zhonggo, who was in a coma, woke up from his sleep, he suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of comfort.

As if the whole world was calm, Chonggo clenched his fists, but he didn't feel the slightest feeling of violence or killing.

The sky outside the dungeon was a dark night, with only the faint silver moonlight shining on the earth. Jonggo walked up from the dungeon pulling on the thick chain, and then he saw a cute girl wearing a white robe leaning on the stone next to her, winking at him and snapping her fingers.

"How's it going? Did you feel comfortable after a good night's sleep?"

"Who are you?" Zhongwu looked at Zhixue, who was as holy as an angel under the moonlight. A trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, but after seeing the pale white light emerging from Zhixue's body, his pupils shrank instantly. .

It seemed that it was this weak-looking girl who subdued the violent man, and he couldn't remember the rest clearly.

Zhixue walked over from the stone and asked Chugo: "Formal introduction, my name is Uchiha Zhixue, I just came out of Ryūchi Cave."

"You are the legendary immortal!?" Zhongwu was surprised, and the way he looked at Zhixue was different. There are also a lot of legends circulating about Longdi Cave here, and it is said that in almost every era, ambitious humans have found this place, trying to pry into the secrets of immortality, but in the end, none of them came out.

But if the person in front of her learned the magic of immortality, he would be an immortal, and it seemed more reasonable for him to lose to her.

"You can say that, but it's not entirely correct." Zhixue had only learned the immortal mode at this time, but had not learned the corresponding moves. It was indeed incomplete.

Next, Chonggo also briefly introduced himself, which was no different from Zhixue's memories, but when he mentioned the village, Chonggo's eyes contained sadness. It was obvious that he knew what he had brought to the village. Threat, and also knows how the villagers view him.

After the two introductions, Zhixue proposed to help Zhongwu control his immortal ability, but the corresponding condition was to become Zhixue's subordinate and accumulate some family fortune in the future.

Regarding this small condition, Zhonggo was not very repulsive, but felt that it was a good deal. If he could really control the immortal transformation, it would be something he had never dared to think about for so many years, and becoming a subordinate of the immortal would also be a good deal. It's not something to be ashamed of.

……

After Zhongwu agreed to Zhixue's request, he quickly began training in controlling natural energy.

"Calm down, I'll help you straighten out the balance of chakra and natural energy, and you should also find a way to control it."

"Ah."

Zhixue put his hands on Zhongwu's back, and a pale white light covered his whole body. Because he had done his homework in advance, Zhixue quickly followed the natural energy control method of Longdi Cave and controlled Zhongwu's body. Strolled around again.

However, Zhixue only taught how to walk, and did not teach other things. These just allowed Chonggo to control his power, but this was exactly what he needed.

Zhonggo's understanding of natural energy is very high, even more ridiculous than Zhixue's talent. He quickly mastered the general operation method, and can barely control it from going berserk, as long as he doesn't stay directly in a place like Ryūchi Cave. There will be no problem.

Chongwu just lacks a person to guide him.

After a night of hard work, Zhixue looked at Jugo, who could freely control the immortal state in front of him with dark circles under his eyes, and flicked the hair on his shoulders.

"Ah, it seems to be very simple."

Chonggo looked at the tired girl behind him, put on an excited smile that was not used to it, and said: "Thank you so much! This ability has been giving me a headache for a long time!"

"No, if you really want to thank me, you might as well make more money." Zhixue stretched and waved his hand.

After Zhixue placed the place where the two met in this village, Zhixue returned to the old village chief to report the situation, which almost made the nearly 70-year-old man kneel down.

It can be seen that Zhongwu is still very important to the old village chief.

After resting for a while at a villager's home and buying some daily necessities and maps, Zhixue embarked on the journey home.

If Shisui knew that she was not dead, he would be very happy, right?

Zhixue originally wanted to use carrier pigeons to deliver the news, but gave up when he thought of Konoha's airtight barrier.

Standing at a fork in the road, Zhixue took out the map given by the old village chief and started looking at it.

Her current location is on the border of the Kingdom of Thunder. To go further west, she needs to cross the Kingdom of Moon and the Kingdom of Tang before she can return to the Kingdom of Fire. Frequently crossing the border may take a lot of time.

But if you go south, it will be much faster if you take the sea route. There is a small port dozens of kilometers away. You can go and ask if there are any ships going to the Land of Fire.

"Let's go..." Looking at the gradually dimming light of the sky, Zhixue ran towards the location of the port on the map. At the same time, a guess appeared in Zhixue's mind.

Should we return to Konoha later? You must know that it is much easier to make money outside the village than inside the village. For example, if you are in the country of Waves on the way, you can go there and see if there is any potential that can be explored.

……

Konoha Village…

In front of the mausoleum erected in the back mountain of Konoha, another figure appeared. Kakashi looked at the sky burial wearing a root mask next to him and felt a little lucky at the same time, but also felt a little sad.

Genbu, who acted with them before, also survived, but why did Zhixue die in the disaster while the two of them were fine? It's like God is deliberately playing a joke on the fate of the world, unable to resist or see clearly.

A few days ago, he even picked up every piece of debris in the ruins, but there was no trace of Zhixue. Kakashi felt a twinge in his heart when he thought of the explosion that seemed to destroy everything.

The people around him died again... his father, Minato-sensei, Lin, Obito... and now Zhixue, maybe he was really destined to be lonely.

Kakashi put down the flowers, put on a mask, patted Tianzhong on the shoulder, and left quickly. After Kakashi left, Tianzhong also stayed here for a long time before placing the flowers on Zhixue. In front of the grave, looking at the figure in the black and white photo, I don’t know what I’m thinking.

Danzo, who observed this phenomenon in secret, looked at the location of the sky burial with a dissatisfied expression.

"Are you sympathizing with the Uchiha people? Huh, it's such a useless emotional value..."

Chapter 49: The Sky Ninja Who Loves Counterattack

After Zhixue rushed to the port, she found a merchant ship that traveled between various countries, and was going to take their ride back to the Land of Fire. On the way, she also bought a few baskets of oranges, apples, etc. from a roadside stall. The fruit was put into the space scroll.

Taking a bite of the sweet and sour green apple, Zhixue sat on the edge of the bow and watched the distant mainland gradually disappear on the horizon, feeling a sense of loneliness for no reason.

It seems that she has not been to the sea in her previous life.

Looking at the abyss-like blue water around the merchant ship, Zhixue yawned and went back to the cabin to rest. When he woke up, he felt a vibration in the hull.

"Hey, holy shit, there was an earthquake?" Zhixue quickly opened the hatch and looked at the endless sea outside, feeling a little confused.

Yes, she seems to be on the sea, how could there be an earthquake?

But what happened to the vibration just now?

boom!

A roar appeared beside Zhixue, and flying debris and flames splashed on the deck.

"Help! What is this?"

"Help, I'm still young, I don't want to die!" The continuous explosions and casualties filled the entire merchant ship with an atmosphere of panic, and the ninjas they paid a lot of money to hire also suffered from the lack of air defense and were unable to attack the targets above. Counter.

Zhixue coughed and walked out of the explosion smoke before discovering a dozen small black spots in the sky.

"Hey, we have found a new target. You can make money by robbing these independent ships. This is much more profitable than being a wandering ninja." A few hundred meters above the sky, a ninja wearing an unknown forehead protector pulled a He pressed the joystick, adjusted the accuracy, and dropped another bomb wrapped in a detonating talisman from his hand.

However, this time the bomb did not fall on the ship, but was offset by a huge fire ball in the air.

"Hey, boss, those ninjas who are still in primitive society seem to have two brushes." A ninja flying in the sky shouted.

"There are only these two brushes. They can't fly. There's nothing we can do about it. As long as we continue to play with them like this, they will collapse sooner or later. Jiejiejiejiejie..."

With that said, the captain took out another bomb from the trunk and threw it down.

On a merchant ship…

As several ninjas from the Hidden Cloud Village were panting heavily and anxiously looking for ways to deal with the next wave of bombing, they suddenly discovered that a little girl who had just arrived yesterday had walked onto the observation deck of the merchant ship at some point.

"Hey, kid! Come down quickly, it's dangerous out there!" Just as Yun Ren said these words, he saw a bomb explode next to Zhixue, blowing down the high roof directly.

"hateful……"

While several Kumogakure ninjas were still feeling pity and anger over Zhiyuki's life.

Zhixue had already reached behind the bomb-throwing ninja by triggering counterattack.

Swish!

A ray of silver light cut the ninja's flying machine in half, and the ninja who lost his flying ninja tool also fell from the sky in fear.

Several people around were still a little stunned by the sudden change, but they all reacted when they saw Zhixue.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Counterattack immediately!"

Many Kong Ninjas took out their shuriken launchers and fired towards Zhixue.

Seeing countless shurikens flying in front of his eyes, Zhiyuki, who activated the Three Magatama Sharingan, gathered chakra into the Flying Thunder God Kunai, and his whole body exuded a golden halo.
