Chapter 499: The Journey
Ruri and Red have traveled a lot together.
To the north, adjacent to Tanokuni, is the Land of Iron, where heavy snow drifts all day long, and unlike the Land of Snow, which freezes all year round, it is famous for its samurai.
As a country given the meaning of "iron", the wind and snow seem to be full of cold and slaughter, and from time to time they walk by the patrol samurai wearing heavy armor and sharp knives at their waists.
Able to wander away from the ninja world several times and be neutral, this small country with extraordinary force has independent authority and combat power, and of course, a proud landscape.
For example, the three snow-capped mountains known as the "Three Wolves".
Liuli and Hong once stood on the top of the snow-capped mountain, watching the snowflakes condense from the mid-mountain and fall on the pines and cypresses all over the mountain, and also slowly passed by in the snow maple forest.
"I remember a long time ago that when it snows, if we don't have an umbrella, can we go all the way to Baitou?"
Red was surprisingly quiet, silently walking hand in hand, until Qingsi gradually became wet with snow, and she said in a low voice, "I don't want you to have that day." ”
Who wants their beloved to grow old a little bit, and who doesn't want the person who is to be remembered can stay in the best time forever, and even, I would rather the time take away only themselves.
The topic suddenly became heavy, and Ruri put away her smile, and the hands she held turned into ten fingers.
"No......"
Their breaths gradually approached, and the moment they kissed became a different color of this plain white world.
Later, Ruri and Red went to the country of ghosts, a mysterious country full of legends of ghosts and gods, where there is a unique system and culture, there are no daimyos, no ninjas, only "shrine maidens" who guard the peace of this country.
The land of demons is full of wind, and it is said that it is the yin wind brought by the breathing of the spirits.
They had heard anecdotes about gods and monsters in the tea shop, legends about monsters, and saw traces left by dragons in the ancestral hall, and even saw shrine maidens.
Legend has it that the shrine maidens of the Oni Country have the ability to predict the death of others, so they are respected and feared, but this generation of shrine maidens Shion is only a little girl who has not yet reached adulthood, and she does not feel anything gloomy except for loneliness.
Contrary to death, they are blessed by the shrine maiden Shion, a little blonde girl who understands their relationship and wonders why the two women are like this.
At that time, how Red answered, Ruri can't remember, maybe she didn't really hear it at the time, did she say that she met the right person at the wrong time, or did she make a crazy move at the right time?
The more you pass through one country after another, the more you can feel the wonder of this world, the country of fields with the wind and the sun are adjacent to the country of iron with snow all year round, the country of wind in the barren desert is connected to the country of rain with endless rain, and the same is true of the yin wind of the country of ghosts, and many disobediences seem to be clamoring to prove the unreality of this world.
Is it to show that everything is just due to some imperfect setting?
Ruri looked at the person beside her, and she looked at her with a clear gaze that didn't see anything else.
How strong the wind was that day, how gentle her smile was.
It turned out that the problem of crankiness had flare up again, and Liuli laughed at herself.
After saying goodbye to Shion, they went to the country of birds, a place where migratory birds roosted, they rowed in the lake, watched the birds fill the whole sky, and also went to the land of tea, to taste what is said to be the best tea in the ninja world.
The country of stone, the country of the moon, the country of vegetables, the country of cedar, the country of spoons, the country of minions, the country of red beans, the country of udon...... Almost all the countries that have maps to follow in the ninja world have left their footprints.
They even went to find those countries that only survived in legends, such as the ancient kingdom of Loulan before, which was the insistence of the red, such as the Shouqiling Castle of the Shou no Kuni, and the empty country that was rumored to have perished for a long time.
The glorious kingdom supported by dragon veins, the huge castle transformed by psychic beasts, and the huge fortress built in the air are even more incredible than legends.
However, when they were found, they were all in ruins, and the prosperity of the past had already been transformed by the vicissitudes of life, and time was ruthless, making the earth barren and even the sea dry and rotten small.
But they still made a vow, and I don't know who had ever spoken of creating a world with only the two of them.
In the past two years, they have been like ordinary people, although they have not concealed their identities, but they also seem to be completely cut off from the world of ninjas, and they have hardly encountered any ninjas, except for the fact that they have met Jiraiya by coincidence.
I heard that in the past two years, the ninja world has also been very calm.
Time can heal the wounds of the past, not to mention what Ruri has done is only innocuous to most ninja villages - at least, much less than the hatred left between ninja villages and ninja villages due to countless wars.
The so-called S-class traitor has long been quietly forgotten on various wanted lists, and it is even more impossible for underground exchanges to exist.
There is only one ninja village, and it still maintains a wanted look for Aoi Ruri, and the place where it began, Fog Hide, is deeply jealous of her for some unknown reason.
Ruri has never let go of her attention to ninjutsu, she has visited different places, she has seen a lot of secret arts, and a thousand strange spells can never be covered by any ninja village, she has generated a lot of inspiration, and many obscure problems have become unblocked.
In addition, the communication between her and the Snow Country and Ringo Yuri has not been interrupted, although every time she walks through a country, it is like walking through a season, in fact, time does not pass quickly.
Until one day, she received news from the psychic eagle that another batch of students from Konoha ninja school had graduated and become shinobi.
"What do you care about this?" Red hugged the glazed waist from behind, with the fragrance of the petals that had just been bathed, and asked strangely.
Liuli tilted her head, gently holding her earlobe, feeling the other party's slight contraction, and there was a hint of emotion in her tone: "Remember what I said, maybe there are three of them who should be your students." ”
"The world you depicted that time?" Red looked at Liuli helplessly, "Why are you so obsessed with it, the current situation is completely different from what you said." ”
But that's the real world......
Liuli was speechless, she didn't hide anything from Hong, but she didn't know how to explain this matter, could it be that the real plot of this world was about to begin?
Naruto Uzumaki...... Since that little ghost became a shinobi, many events can be matched.
Liuli thought about it, continued to look down, and her face suddenly changed, and she turned helpless.
"Red, I think we might have to go back early.
