Chapter 40 Promise

Xie Mao put away his chopsticks and put all the clean vegetable boxes back into the bag.

Fenfu watched this scene quietly. After Xie Mao put everything back into the bag, he said calmly: "Scorpion-kun, I will let Shukaku take the chakra..."

"Wait a minute." Xie Mao interrupted Fenfu and said, "Fengfu, let Shukaku come out again."

"okay."

Fenfu was not curious. He just nodded lightly. After two seconds, Shukaku's consciousness took over his body and complained: "Fengfu is such a crybaby!"

Xie Mao looked at [Blessings] and said solemnly: "Shukaku, I want to make a promise in exchange for your chakra."

"Promise?" [Fengfu] raised his eyebrows strangely.

"Yes."

Xie Mao's serious and focused attitude made his voice no longer sound like a child: "No matter what the result of the divination is, I will try my best to help so that people and tailed beasts can coexist peacefully, so that tailed beasts can live freely, and no longer

There will be no deformed beings like jinchuriki. As long as the tailed beasts don't harm humans, humans will not disturb or harm the tailed beasts."

[Fengfu] listened quietly, his expression became solemn unknowingly: "You dare to think about it, boy, do you really know how difficult it is?"

"I can probably imagine that the difficulties may be beyond my imagination, but being able to take the first step bravely is the most important thing."

Xie Mao's voice seemed to have a little more magnetism. He looked at [Fengfu] and said, "Shukaku, I don't want to shrink back because of difficulties."

"...Tsk! For Fenfu's sake." [Fengfu] raised his hand, and a ball of chakra with a curse seal slowly released, "How much do you need?"

This chakra has no dark and scary feeling at all, and it exudes the purest aura of the tailed beast.

"Wait a moment." Xie Mao immediately took out a sealing scroll from his ninja bag and took out something like a small iron stove sealed inside. He opened the lid and said, "Just fill it up."

This is the chakra given to him by Chiyo, used to seal the tailed beast.

[Fengfu] twitched at the corner of its eye, as if it had recalled something bad, but it didn't say anything and directly pressed its hand on the small iron stove and poured chakra into it.

Soon, the small iron furnace was completely filled, and Xie Mao immediately closed the lid and sealed the iron furnace into the scroll.

Successfully obtained! Seeing that the chakra finally fell into the bag, Xie Mao felt uncontrollably better.

With this chakra, he is only one step away from the digestion progress before Sequence 8.

"Kid, remember what you said, or I'll eat you."

[Fengfu] threatened fiercely, and soon Fenfu's own consciousness returned. He smiled kindly and said: "Scorpion Lord, you have impressed Shukaku."

(Shukaku: No!)

"It's just that Shukaku also hopes to have such a world." Xie Mao suppressed the joy in his heart and said calmly, "Thank you too, for sharing the blessing."

"I want to thank you." Fenfu said.

"I have a mission these days. When I complete the mission, I will come back to see you and tell you the results of the divination."

"Have a safe journey and return safely," Fenfu said with blessing.

"See you."

Saying goodbye to Fenfu, Xie Mao walked out of the cave carrying the bag filled with garbage. Ye Cang was waiting at the entrance of the cave. When he saw Xie Mao coming out, he immediately asked: "Did it succeed?"

"It went pretty well."

The two communicated while running back, and Xie Mao said: "I accept the mission, and I will set off when I get home and be ready."

This is a last resort choice for Xie Mao. Not participating in the mission is somewhat inconsistent with "Scorpion"'s personality and strength, and may disappoint the village's senior officials and reduce his various preferential treatment.

If he could continue to practice at home, Xie Mao would still be able to make considerable progress in a short period of time. However, time flies and plans cannot keep up with changes, so Xie Mao had to make choices.

Fortunately, after having the tailed beast chakra, during this mission, Xie Mao was able to try to completely digest the potion, advance to the next level, and increase his strength a little.

Beside Xie Mao, Ye Cang was not surprised by his answer. She nodded slightly and said: "Well, I also need some time to do the paperwork. I will pick you up at your home later. The details of the task will be

Said on the way."

"Well, by the way, help me tell Grandma Qiandai." Xie Mao said.

"no problem."

"Hmm... Speaking of which, what exactly is the divination that Xiao Ya mentioned?" Ye Cang suddenly asked.

Xie Maomo glanced at her and asked, "Do you want to try it?"

"Uh, I'm a little curious." Ye Cang scratched the side of his face with his fingers.

"Simple, you inject a little chakra into my cards."

Xie Mao took out the cards from the ninja tool bag with one hand. After Ye Cang injected chakra into it, he shuffled the cards with one hand, then used some tricks to reveal the first card with one hand, and saw a straight card.

"ugly".

Then he shuffles the cards again and reveals the first card again, this time it is the reversed "noon".

Twenty-four minus seven - seventeen years old. Is Ye Cang so young? Xie Mao looked at Ye Cang beside him in surprise. Just looking at her appearance and mature temperament, Xie Mao would have thought she was in her twenties.

.

"What, what?" Ye Cang was confused as he watched the silver cards flying up and down, and then met Xie Mao's surprised gaze.

"I'm just a little surprised that you are only seventeen years old." Xie Mao almost thought that there was something wrong with his divination.

"...cai?" Ye Cang's face immediately darkened, his hands clenched into fists unconsciously, and he said angrily, "You mean I'm old!?"

Xie Mao coughed and reluctantly explained: "...I mean you have the temperament of a leader."

"leader?"

Ye Cang didn't believe Xie Mao's words at all. Just when she was about to continue speaking, Xie Mao quickly said: "Don't you want to know how I calculated it?"

That's right... Ye Cang was stunned for a moment. She was still more curious about divination, so she suppressed a little anger and asked: "Say."

"The method of divination is not difficult..."

Xie Mao explained to Ye Cang the method of calculating age by playing cards. After hearing this, Ye Cang completely forgot about his anger and asked eagerly: "Can you let me try?"

"Of course." Xie Mao handed over the card.

"Your chakra." Ye Cang did not take back the hand that took the card.

Xie Mao followed his words and injected chakra, and then Ye Cang quickly shuffled the cards using a hidden weapon, and drew out the "Zi" card in the upright position and the "Mao" card in the reverse position.

Ye Cang blinked his beautiful eyes: "I remember, you seem to be eight years old..."

"...Yes." Xie Mao raised his eyebrows slightly.

The age of Xie Mao's body is exactly eight years old, and the divination result corresponding to the "Zi" card in the upright position and the "Mao" card in the reverse position is twelve minus four, which is exactly the same as Xie Mao's age.

"Ahhh! It worked!!!" Ye Cang jumped up happily like a cheerful little girl. He was happy that he had succeeded in divination for the first time, and his face was full of joy.

Unlike Ye Cang's happiness, Xie Mao was actually very surprised.

The reason why he can succeed in fortune-telling every time is because of his ability as a diviner. Others cannot do this kind of thing, but Ye Cang can actually succeed in it the first time.

Does she have some hidden talent for divination? Or is it because my chakra is special? Xie Mao thought about it without interrupting Ye Cang's happy celebration.

Isn't this great?

After Ye Cang's excitement subsided, Xie Mao said: "You succeeded in one try. You may have a talent for divination."

"Really!" Ye Cang's face was still red, and she returned the card to Xie Mao, "It's very interesting."

Xie Mao reached out and took it, feeling that the potion in his body seemed to be clearly digested.

Xie Mao immediately looked at the system:

[Performance completion: 13.6%]

[Digestion progress: 91.14%]

It’s gone up a lot! Xie Mao’s eyes almost froze.

When I looked at it yesterday, there was no such exaggerated growth at all. Today’s progress is simply a leap forward!

Is it because my performance today is very consistent with the diviner's code?

No, it's not that simple! Xie Mao quickly thought of the key point.

The key should be the person who provides feedback today!

Both Shukaku and Ye Cang are far more powerful than Xie Mao, so their feedback to Xie Mao is so great, which makes the completion of the role and the progress of digestion increase so much!

This is simply a great harvest... Xie Mao sighed silently.

At this time, the two of them had almost reached the main road of Sand Hidden Village. Ye Cang's expression moved slightly and he said: "Your escort team is here, so let's separate for now. I will go to your house to wait for you."

"good."

Xie Mao watched Ye Cang disappear before his eyes using the teleportation technique, and felt that this scene seemed a bit familiar.

But immediately, Xie Mao felt the pressure of the upcoming task.

"Huh~" Xie Mao breathed out slowly and his eyes became firm.
Chapter completed!
