A faint morning mist filled the dense forest, and Chiba and the others shuttled through the forest under the leadership of Morino Shinshu, this time, Morino Shinshu changed his path and went straight to a small village on the border of the Grass Country, which was the last sighting place of the group of bandits in this mission. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The Land of Grass and the Land of Fire, as well as the Land of Earth, are small countries that live between the big powers, and are treated only slightly better than the Land of Rain, which borders the three major countries, and are also victims of war.

This was something that Chiba had felt deeply since he set foot on the territory of the Grass Country.

And at this moment, in front of him, there was a dilapidated village, about seven or eight families.

Next to these houses, there are several ruined walls, which seem to have been the residence of the villagers in the same way as the houses with kunai, shuriken, fire, and electric shock marks on the walls.

The grass grows in the village, and if it weren't for the fact that there are still villagers walking and making fires in the village, Chiba would almost have thought that this is an abandoned village.

And those walking villagers, with blank expressions, were simply dressed in linen clothes, and even the children were lifeless squatting at the door of their homes, with their heads buried in their arms, looking at the four Chiba people who had stopped, their eyes were dark, and the expression on their faces was full of hunger.

At this moment, whether it was Chiba, or Morino Masa, or Kento Kiuchi, or even Shigeru Fujiki, their expressions all sank in unison.

For Chiba, the sight made him a little incredulous, it was the first time he had seen such a miserable scene.

In his previous life, he was born in a peaceful era, and his family life was not very bad, and he had no worries about food and clothing, but he would not have any extra family resources that could be squandered.

And in this life, although he is an orphan, under the shade of Konoha Village, he is still more than enough to eat and clothe.

When he stepped into the country of grass, Chiba was mentally prepared to see the traces of war, but he didn't expect to see such a scene.

The adults have no godless gaze, like the walking dead.

Even the child is on the verge of death, lifeless.

A feeling rose in Chiba almost immediately.

This village, already dead.

It's still there, but it's dead.

That's it, war?

"Sensei Masashi......" Kento Kiuchi glanced at Morino Masashi and muttered.

"You wait here. Morino's face remained calm, but his eyes flashed with pity and shame and guilt.

Chiba and the others watched him walk into the village and talk to the adults in the village.

After a while, Morino Shinshu came back with a calm face and said, "Let's go, when the group of bandits has already left, they are heading towards the Fire Country, and in that direction, it should be the Mountain Lantern Town of the Fire Country, and they were supposed to have another loot. ”

In other words, before they met us, they were planning to loot that mountain lamp town? So, now that they met us, or after learning the information that we were coming to exterminate, what would they do after the ambush, and where would they be now?

Chiba pondered.

"Let's get out of here, the food and money here have all been robbed, even the labor force in the prime of life has been taken captive, for them, this place has no value, they will not stay here. Morino said.

"Captain Morino, we ......"

Chiba frowned, wanting to say something. was interrupted by Morino Masa: "Chiba, this is not our country, and there is nothing we can do. ”

Chiba opened her mouth and looked at the lifeless villagers.

If you can help for a while, can't you help for a lifetime?

But......

At this moment, Kento Kiuchi suddenly ran out and ran towards a house in the village.

"Are you alright? ”

Chiba turned his head to look, but saw Kento Kiuchi holding a little girl who was almost twelve or thirteen years old to prevent her from fainting and falling, and this sound was said by Kento Kiuchi.

The little girl looked very embarrassed with a dusty face and a baby of about one or two years old in her hands, looking at Kiuchi Kento weakly.

It turned out that the little girl walked out of her house, but the moment she walked out, she seemed to faint and fall, and she leaned forward and fell, which would definitely crush the baby in front of her.

"Be careful next time. Rarely, Kento Kiuchi's cold face showed a slightly gentle look, and then straightened the little girl and ran back.

The little girl looked at Kiuchi Kento with a look of surprise.

"I'm sorry, it's time to go. "Kento Kiuchi came back to apologize first.

"Let's go. Morino Masashi looked at Kento Kiuchi, nodded, and then left first, Chiba hesitated, and finally followed.

On the way, Chiba looked at Kento Kiuchi.

This guy, the moment he held the little girl, stuffed his wallet and dry food into the baby's swaddling clothes. Although the ninja's dry food was highly concentrated and unpalatable, it was a lifesaver for the little girl and the baby.

And deliberately not to let people find out, and it is also very thoughtful, after all, there is no food and money in the village, and if you give it to the little girl openly, the little girl's situation may be even worse.

And this time, Chiba is really a change in his opinion of Kiuchi Kento, although this person is impulsive and extreme, and always talks about geniuses, but his heart is not bad.

"What's wrong?" Kiuchi asked, sensing Chiba's gaze.

"Nothing. Chiba turned her head with a slight smile.

Kento Kiuchi turned his head slightly unnaturally.

Did he find out?

......

This way, everyone rushed into the territory of the Fire Country, because this mission was commissioned by the Grass Hidden Village and the Fire Country at the same time, and after passing some codes, they could freely enter and exit the borders of the two countries, and there was no problem.

And after arriving in Yamadeng Town, Morino Shinshu threw Chiba and the others in a meatball shop and searched for news alone.

After arriving at the town of mountain lamps, Chiba and the others have a feeling of going from hell to heaven all of a sudden, although the town of mountain lamps has experienced robbery, but the recovery is very good, it is still prosperous, compared with the villages of the country of grass, it is the difference between heaven and hell.

Thinking about the village of the country of drafting, Chiba's appetite dropped inexplicably, and he didn't know how to eat the balls, and Kento Kiuchi didn't seem to have an appetite either, looking at the red bean soup and the balls silently.

As for Shigeru Fujiki, he was a lot more honest and didn't say a word, just glancing out from time to time.

About two hours later, Morino Shinshu returned, and when he returned, he immediately gave the order to set off, saying that he had found the base of the bandits.

Chiba and the others glanced at each other and left immediately.

Led by Morino Shinshu, the three of them ran to a certain place in the direction of the Land of Rain.

After they left, a businessman with a big waist walked out of the meatball shop, looking at the four Chiba who disappeared from sight, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

It's almost time to arrive!

I was able to inform than adult action!
