The afternoon sun finally broke through the heavy dark clouds and swayed over the leaf village.
Konohamaru stretched exaggeratedly, feeling still a little sleepy, so he quickly got up from the bed and walked on the floor. His body suddenly fell straight to the ground. He relied on the strength of his forearms to support his body and did several consecutive
push-up.
Even after Shikamaru left the village, he still kept in mind some of his teachings, and even now when he is still growing, he has always insisted on the habit of taking a nap.
After doing more than ten push-ups, Konohamaru felt much more energetic, so he got up and went to the living room to drink some water. After Sarutobi Rizan died, although Asuma wanted to take him home, he refused.
Well, every aspect of life is a matter of knowledge. Only with sufficient experience can one perfect a ninja's values and form one's own way of ninja as soon as possible. This is what Shikamaru once told Konohamaru, and Konohamaru will keep it in mind.
Konohamaru quickly entered the living room, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw something seemed to be placed on the table in the living room. He walked forward with some confusion. After seeing what was placed on the table, his eyes couldn't help but condense.
There is a scroll and a short weapon on the table.
Konohamaru first picked up the short sword and pulled it out of the sharkskin sheath. He seemed to feel a cold air blowing on his face, and he didn't know if it was an illusion. The short blade had a strange and simple shape, with three blades, slender and long, and three wide blood stripes.
The groove is shocking, and the curved blade on the gauntlet flashes with a cold light.
Kagexiu. Konohamaru was extremely surprised. This strange weapon with a unique shape belonged to his former teacher, Nara Shikamaru, known as the "Kamigakure". There was absolutely no way he could have mistakenly remembered it. Why did it come here now?
He’s coming to his house!?
Konohamaru quickly put down the "Kage Show" and picked up the scroll next to it. The scroll had no extra decorations or patterns. He hurriedly opened it and immediately saw a line of small words.
Dreamless flow.
…………
Compared with the weather in Konoha Village, which is still somewhat gloomy at this time, the weather in Tano Kuni Toidao Castle is considered sunny, cloudless, and the sun is shining brightly... But this kind of weather may not make people feel comfortable.
.
Shikamaru stood like a statue on the roof of a small building, with several people standing side by side.
Ino Yamanaka kept her eyebrows furrowed, and the stench in the air somewhat dissipated some of her joy of being reunited with Shikamaru.
The establishment of the sewerage system and public health management are not that easy. It requires the cooperation and support of the local rulers, as well as financial and manpower dispatch. However, for the complicated and gloomy national conditions of Tianzhi Country, this is naturally a problem.
Extravagant hope.
In areas where civilians live, open defecation is common. Households with toilets often dump filth into the streets. The bodies of homeless people and beggars are mixed with filth and dumped in dark corners of the city.
, it is not something impossible to see.
Of course, Shikamaru didn't want them to see the sanitary environment of Tian Country, but something more "interesting" and dramatic.
The tall man standing next to Shikamaru, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, was Tenzo, who was half-coerced and half-coaxed to come to Tian Country. Next was Riku Neji with a cold face and long hair.
The boy next to Ningci was wearing green tights, had an ugly watermelon haircut, and very thick eyebrows. He was naturally Rock Lee, followed closely by the fat Choji Akimichi and Nozakura with light gold hair.
When Shikamaru was in Konoha, the people he asked Ri to summon to Neji were the Twelve Strong people who were still in the village, but in the end, these were the only people who decided to come to Tian Country with Shikamaru. However,
Shikamaru was not disappointed. If it weren't for his strong prestige, I'm afraid the few young men who stayed in Konoha Village might not be willing to gather together. After all, Shikamaru was still a rebel ninja in name only.
Shikamaru did not brag about his prospects after leaving. He just told the truth to these Konoha ninjas who had a bright future.
The future is not very clear, but there is an opportunity to create a new world.
Ri Xiang Ningji, Akimichi Chouji and Yamanaka Ino almost without hesitation chose to leave with Shikamaru and go to Tian Country. Ningci didn't say anything, but the latter two had a close friendship with Shikamaru.
Under the subtle influence, although he still didn't understand the situation Shikamaru said, he subconsciously chose to believe Shikamaru. B Nozakura's joining was an accident. Shino Aburame and Kiba Inuzuka, Tenten did not choose to leave, so
It didn't surprise Shikamaru, after all, they still had a bright future in Konoha.
It's just that those who agreed to leave with Shikamaru, including Riku Neji and Tenzo, probably didn't have a clear understanding of what Shikamaru said, so he used "Black Magic. Shifang" to show them some
matter.
"Here we come." Shikamaru murmured to himself, his eyes falling on a group of people walking at the end of the avenue in the distance. Compared to the shabby clothes of the civilians here, the clothes of this group of people were obviously much better, and there was no trace of hunger or cold food on their faces.
, there were two strong men among them, and they were holding knives.
The leader, a middle-aged man with a fat figure and a shaved forehead that seemed to have oil coming out, was covering his mouth and nose with a handkerchief, his eyes were disgusted, and he seemed to be complaining constantly, while avoiding the dirt on the road.
, while walking towards a group of people gathered on the side of the avenue.
"What do they want to do?" Even with Rock Li's rough nerves, he understood the difference between these people and other families in this area, and he couldn't help but frown and asked.
Compared with Rock Lee and others, Tenzou obviously has much more experience. Without Shikamaru's explanation, he already answered in a deep voice: "Buying and selling people."
Most of the people kneeling and sitting by the road were a few members of a family, with disheveled faces, shabby clothes, and numb and dull eyes. The children at home were surrounded by adults and stood slightly in front, waiting for others to pick them.
Seeing the man in luxurious clothes walking towards here, the expressions of the people with dull faces finally relaxed. Especially when they saw a tall man carrying several bags, they couldn't hide their excitement and stood up slowly.
, quickly surrounded those people.
The two men with knives quickly moved forward, protecting the man carrying the bag and the obese man behind them. The group of people punched and kicked the civilians surrounding them. Shikamaru and others could hear the occasional wailing even far away.
, the two girls, Ino and Chuno Sakura, couldn't bear their expressions. Ino hesitated and said to Shikamaru: "Are we..."
"Keep watching!" Shikamaru ordered without question, without even looking back.
Seeing his resolute attitude, Ino could only continue to watch.
Those thin and short civilians were naturally not the enemy of those powerful thugs. When one of them impatiently pulled out half of his blade, the surrounding civilians quickly dispersed, but they were still reluctant to leave, begging a few people to buy their children.
Seeing these civilians retreating, the obese man stepped forward, pushed a civilian man away in disgust, pushed him staggering, and pulled the man's daughter in front of him, pulling her small head and thin body.
His body seemed to be picking animals. After a while, he asked the family to put their fingerprints on a contract. Then he tilted his head to the man carrying the grain bag behind him, signaled, and asked the other person to hand the family a small bag of grain.
.
There was no crying and fighting, no separation or reluctance.
The little girl kowtowed to the fat man neatly, then walked behind him calmly, looking at her parents hugging the small grain bag tightly, as if she was their biological daughter, while the little son at their feet was hard to find.
Hiding excitement, jumping and laughing.
There is no way to survive, and there is so much sorrow of separation. For the little girl, she can live better than now after being sold, and his family can also get some food and survive longer.
He groaned as if he couldn't bear it. He couldn't tell whether he hated that family or the rich people who used people as animals.
"Reality is often more dramatic." Shikamaru whispered. It seemed too cruel to his group, but to that family, I'm afraid they were still happy.
Following his words, the family sold their daughter and slowly retreated amidst the envious and greedy eyes around them. After getting a certain distance away from the rich people, the seemingly honest and honest head of the family actually took out his daughter from his sleeve.
He waved a small knife threateningly at other families who were buying and selling sons and daughters. He looked ferocious and ferocious, and asked his wife to protect the grain bag and leave with her family.
"Follow them." Shikamaru curled his lips, unwilling to pay attention to human trafficking anymore, and said to everyone. Nozakura and Yamanaka Ino seemed to be in a trance, and then they reacted, and took one last look at the fat man who was still picking, and then followed Shikamaru.
Maru chased after him.
Several people followed the steps of the family of three from a high place. After walking for a certain distance, they saw that the family had been stopped. Although the people who were stopped were dressed in shabby and simple clothes, they were better than the family of three who had food in front of them.
Many of them were tall and armed with short swords and daggers.
Locke Li's eyebrows stood up, with anger in his chest. He wanted to take action, but Shikamaru held him back and asked him to continue looking. He saw that the family seemed to have been accustomed to it, watching the grain bag in his wife's arms being snatched away, and took it away.
Most of the food was poured into a bag brought by the other party.
Except for the well-informed Tianzang, several Xiaoqiang were stunned. They did not expect that there were people who specifically exploited these low-level people who had no money to eat every day.
Shikamaru also felt that there was no need to continue watching. He formed seals with his hands and used illusions. The ordinary people saw feathers falling from the sky in front of their eyes and fell asleep unconsciously.
Shikamaru jumped off the roof with a few people, came to a few people, and went to Neji to get the grain bag, but found that one of the strong men holding a dagger was still holding on tightly, and he couldn't help but kick him hard.
He kicked it open, opened the mouth of the bag, looked inside, cursed secretly, and handed the grain bag to Shikamaru.
When Shikamaru saw Riku Neji's appearance, he was a little thoughtful. There was corn in the grain bag, so he grabbed a handful from the grain bag and spread it out in his hands.
"A lot of sand." Akimichi Choji had been silent at first, but now he looked at the corn mixed with sand in Shikamaru's hand - or rather, the sand mixed with corn, and finally said.
The food in this small bag is probably barely enough for Akimichi Choji to eat in one meal, but now it seems that there is still more than half of the sand in it. I really don’t know how long this family can eat it, and the little girl is still alive.
Really cheap.
"How are you going to change this place?" Compared to the Xiaoqiang who were still immersed in what they had seen and heard before, Tenzo did not show too much sentimentality and asked Shikamaru.
"Systems and violence alone are not enough!" Shikamaru carefully poured the corn in his hand into the bag and said to Tenzo: "Since we want these people to survive, there is one thing that is essential."
"Food!" Choji Akimichi said in a deep voice.
"That's right! The power of Yang escape can promote the growth of plants. If I can fully control the natural energy, I can use its backup and shorten the growth process to increase food production. If I can master the wood escape, I can even cultivate better products.
Seeds of grains." Shikamaru nodded and said with a hint of sneer at the corner of his mouth.
It doesn't matter if he can kill tens of millions of people. He learned Mu Dun just to save hundreds of millions of people. No Sakura asked hesitantly.
"Of course a person can't do it, but a god can." Shikamaru answered directly, seeming to have already made up his mind: "Because gods have believers, and they are the eyes, hands and feet of gods."
