"It shouldn't be wrong. I caught a participant and it was true after torture.
It was a rebellious ninja named Xie from Sand Ninja Village who wanted to open the seal of Loulan Dragon Vein, so he captured Lingzi!"
Watanabe Toru's words completely matched Sara's suspicion.
Sarah, who was originally worried, now felt a little more relaxed.
That's right, this was the beginning of her encounter with Toru Watanabe in the past.
In that past memory, there was Reiko beside Toru Watanabe,
In other words, as long as things develop normally,
Lingzi's life will not be in danger!
"The seal of the dragon vein can only be broken by my bloodline and Lingzi's. Watanabe, please protect Lingzi and bring him back!"
Sarah's mood was extremely complicated. She was worried about Lingzi's comfort, but she was also looking forward to the fateful encounter.
With two complicated emotions intertwined, she really didn't know what to say except pleading to bring Lingzi back!
"Don't worry, I will definitely bring Lingzi back safe and sound. I have already sent the action application to the Hokage's office. If there is no accident, I will set off early tomorrow morning. As for your safety, Kakashi will be responsible for it!"
Sara didn't care who Kakashi was, she was just worried about whether Toru Watanabe's actions would go smoothly.
"Watanabe, why don't you take me with you? I'm familiar with the way to Loulan. It should be faster if I guide you!"
"Need not!"
Watanabe Toru directly rejected Sara's request.
He would only take Class 11 on the road at dawn. Although Sara had some training background, she was still far behind the ninjas.
Although Sara has good intentions, bringing one more person will undoubtedly affect the speed.
As for getting familiar with the route and giving directions...
"But......"
Sarah was still a little worried.
Watanabe Toru shook his head firmly and refused,
"Don't worry about directions. Now that the Internet map is online, the route to Loulan is also the best plan. You just need to stay in Konoha with peace of mind!"
Sarah bit her lip,
She knows that the Internet map is powerful, and she also knows that participating in it may be a drag.
But as a mother, doing nothing but waiting is a torture for her!
Xi Yan has left Konoha with the team, and Watanabe Toru has not returned.
He spent a night with Sara and talked a lot with her.
It was getting bright and clear, and Class 11 had assembled.
Looking at Toru Watanabe walking out of Sara's room, the faces of the boys and girls were very strange, some were confused, and most of them were angry.
But Lingzi is missing, and now it's hard for them to say anything in front of Sara.
Until Toru Watanabe took them out of Konoha, the three members of Team 11 immediately launched an attack on him to fight for Uzuki Yugao!
While hurrying on his way, Toru Watanabe briefly explained the whole incident.
When they heard that Lingzi was the biological daughter of Toru Watanabe and Sara, and that the genetic comparison had been personally tested by Uzuki Xiyan, the three of them stared at each other, and their brains suddenly shut down!
What Toru Watanabe said was unbelievable, but there was no need to deceive them!
The original doubts have been answered one after another.
No wonder a few people have been acting so abnormally lately!
Only then did they understand why Xiyan had no reaction when she saw that the relationship between Toru Watanabe and Sara was unclear.
Anyone in Xiyan's position would probably be helpless!
A real girlfriend, a mother of a child,
Not only are the parties involved at a loss what to do, they as bystanders can’t figure out the relationship!
After resolving the misunderstanding about Toru Watanabe, Team 11 was also embarrassed by Toru Watanabe's situation.
But now is not the time for them to feel embarrassed. In the past, Lingzi was just an outsider. Whether he was alive, dead or kidnapped, they only worried about completing the task but did not particularly care.
Now that they understand that Reiko is their biological daughter who is only eight years younger than Toru Watanabe, the attitude of the three members of Class 11 towards the mission is completely different!
Watanabe Toru learned from Danzo's memory that Scorpion took Lingzi away, but he knew nothing about Scorpion's route.
But it doesn't matter. Anyway, Scorpion's purpose is to open the Dragon Vein Seal. As long as they can get to the Dragon Vein Seal in advance, they can just sit back and wait for Scorpion to fall into his trap.
Three days passed in a blink of an eye. According to the guidance of the Internet map, a group of four people traveled through the Kingdom of Fire and the Kingdom of Sichuan successfully entered the territory of the ancient Loulan Kingdom.
When you step into Loulan territory, you will see the vast Gobi desert. The texture of the desert is looming in the sunlight, like a magnificent desert painting.
A group of people moved quickly through the desolation.
When we arrived in Loulan, the Internet map was no longer of much use. Few people collected map information in this desert.
The entire Loulan area is nothing but marked with a few crossing paths!
The once prosperous and glorious country has now become a relic of history. It has been abandoned for only ten years, but its ruins seem to have gone through thousands of years of vicissitudes.
Desertification in Loulan is much more serious than Toru Watanabe imagined.
Only by seeing it with your own eyes can you understand firsthand why Loulan people chose to migrate without hesitation.
The wind and sand here seem to have a life of their own, and even now they are still eating away at this land.
Pieces of building ruins are scattered in the desert, like lonely stars in the desert.
Only a few traces of the past Loulan people's lives are still exposed in the desert. The memories of the people who belong to this land are now only the mottled shadows of broken walls and the ubiquitous whimpering sound of the wind!
Loulan Dragon Vein is located in the former Gaotian City.
Before coming here, Toru Watanabe had already roughly known the location of the High Sky City from Sarah.
A group of four people spent the night repairing on the edge of the desert, and early the next morning they spread out and followed the general direction to search for the ruins of the City of Gaotian.
It took less than a morning for Heizhuxin to make a discovery.
He discovered what seemed to be the ruins of the Celestial City.
The City of Gaotian was directly reduced to ruins in the past wars, and the subsequent desertification almost buried the entire City of Gaotian.
Just looking at the scale of the ruins, Heizhu Xin cannot tell that Gaotian City is any different from other Loulan cities.
However, the broken tower in the center of the ruins, which is still standing tall even though most of it has collapsed, reveals the past identity of this place.
That is the central tower of the City of Gaotian. It was the iconic building of the City of Gaotian, and it is also the Lost Tower among the few travelers who pass by this place now!
The Lost Tower is also nearly 100 meters tall and stands out among the entire desert ruins.
The Lost Tower is full of cracks and traces of erosion from wind and sand.
They didn't think much of it when they looked at it from a distance, but when the group approached the tower, the huge tower body and the endless desolate atmosphere made the few people look extremely small.
Sarah once said that the seal of Loulan Dragon Vein is under the Lost Tower.
Watanabe Toru originally planned to make arrangements here and wait for the arrival of Scorpion.
As soon as he got close to the tower, Toru Watanabe sensed a chakra reaction beneath the Lost Tower!
Watanabe Toru had a stern look on his face. He didn't even look for a way into the tower and didn't tell Class 11 anything.
He just dodged and punched the tower directly!
boom!
Along with the huge dust and roar, a straight passage was opened directly!
Before the flying sand in the sky dissipated, Toru Watanabe entered the tower with a single movement.
There was another roar, and a large hole with a diameter of several meters appeared on the ground inside the tower. The hole was dark and went straight to the ground, and the cold wind from below kept rising!
Watanabe Tetsu jumped directly into the underground space without thinking, and the three members of Team 11 followed closely behind.
Watanabe Toru followed the induction and rushed all the way to the deepest part of the underground.
I saw an altar composed of two symmetrical half rings standing in the center of the huge underground space of the tower.
On top of the altar, densely packed magic patterns center on a kunai and extend outward to radiate throughout the underground space.
Next to the kunai, a bloated figure wrapped in a red cloud robe was holding another petite figure and pouring blood on the kunai.
Watanabe Toru's eyes recognized the identities of the two at a glance through the dim light.
The bloated figure is undoubtedly the Fei Liuhu puppet hiding inside Xie, and the petite figure is naturally the target of their trip, Lingzi!
It's just that Lingzi, who was held in Fei Liuhu's hand at this time, had already lost the breath of life.
There is a cavity between the girl's chest and abdomen caused by a huge wound, and the entire altar is almost stained red with blood!
Scorpion sensed the arrival of the uninvited guests, and Fei Liuhu turned around to face Toru Watanabe and others who appeared.
Accompanied by the sound of metal friction, a cold light flashed as the Fei Liuhu tail, which was composed of huge blades, pointed at everyone,
There was still uncoagulated blood dripping from the tip of the tail. Obviously, the hole in Lingzi's body was caused by this!
Seeing the scene on the altar, the three people in Class 11 forgot to breathe for a moment!
The girl who went shopping with them in Konoha and ate rich food, now looks like this!
If Lingzi was just Sarah's daughter, they could only express regret, but on the way there they already knew that Lingzi was not only Sarah's daughter,
She is also the daughter of their teacher Toru Watanabe,
