Above the city wall, there was a cold wind and snowflakes flying. A group of people gathered here, standing quietly, as if waiting for something. Their eyes glanced at the edge of the wall from time to time. The slender figure with his back to the crowd, hands behind his back, looked into the distance.
.
Among these people, there are snow ninjas, fire country ninjas, and snow country ministers and princesses. Although all of them have different identities, they only have one thing in common, and that is what is revealed in their eyes and what comes from their hearts.
Respect, and fear.
In contrast, Linglong, who was attracting the attention of everyone, seemed to be unable to feel the atmosphere of the scene. She admired the beautiful scenery outside the city for a moment, tightened her tight down jacket, then raised her hand and took a sip of the white water vapor.
Xu Shi felt something in his heart, so he opened his voice and recited loudly:
"The scenery of the North Country is covered with thousands of miles of ice and thousands of miles of snow. Looking inside and outside the Great Wall, there is nothing but vastness, and the rivers are flowing up and down..."
In the middle of her words, she paused, Linglong wrinkled slightly, scratched her head, then sighed softly, turned around, looked at the people who were waiting silently, curled her lips, and said with a spring breeze smile: "Okay, the following words
forget."
This smile seemed to ease the atmosphere in the venue somewhat. Naruto glanced left and right, and when no one spoke, he complained in a low voice: "What a weird poem, where did you learn it from? Or did you write it yourself?
?”
"I don't have this kind of talent. I accidentally discovered this piece of "Qin Yuan Chun Snow" while reading my father's novels." Linglong shrugged nonchalantly: "Although the title and words of the poem are a bit weird,
But the energy contained within..."
After pondering for a while, he sighed with emotion:
"The majestic momentum that swallows mountains and rivers and sweeps thousands of miles is really fascinating."
After a few chats, the people of the Snow Kingdom saw that Linglong's performance was far less terrifying than the rumors, but rather approachable, like a big sister next door. Some people boldly and cautiously spoke:
"Lord Linglong, I and Princess Xiaoxue will definitely remember your contribution to our country, but..."
"Is there really no room for relaxation on the merger?"
The speaker is over fifty years old, his name is Asama Santao, and he is the former minister of the Snow Country. Next to him, there is a trembling young girl standing, who is not much different from Linglong in age. She is the name of the Snow Country.
The ruler of Fenghua Xiaoxue.
Hearing the words coming from her ears, Linglong's smile faded and she waved her hand. Naruto immediately silenced her. She looked sideways at Mr. Asama, pursed her lips, and replied unhurriedly:
"First of all, I want to correct you three mistakes."
Sensing the change in Linglong's expression, Asama's heart beat fiercely and he lowered his head quickly, not even daring to take a breath. Fenghua Xiaoxue and several snow ninjas even had their legs trembling and their whole bodies trembling, causing the Fire Country to panic.
The ninjas looked at him with contempt.
"First, I am not an "adult", I am just a passionate revolutionary."
"Second, it is not that "I personally" have made any contribution to the Snow Country, but that the "Republic" does not want to see injustice continue to happen in the land of the ninja world, so this action was taken."
"Third, it doesn't matter whether you and Princess Xiaoxue hate me or love me. After all, my actions don't need to be "kept in mind" by powerful people like you. What I care about..."
With a wave of her arm, Linglong faced the direction of the city and loudly said:
"It's the 56,000 people who live here who have been oppressed and helpless!"
At this moment, Linglong was very majestic, powerful, and sounded like thunder. Asama Santaiko looked pale and was speechless for a moment, but Fenghua Xiaoxue, who didn't know what kind of stimulation she received, suddenly had the courage to roar:
"Experienced oppression? What do you know?"
"My father loves his people as much as his own son, and I also love the people of our country deeply. After years of hard work and all my family wealth, I just want to make the people live a better life. Otherwise, how can the glory and fury of the country take advantage of the opportunity to usurp the throne?"
?”
"The Kingdom of Snow is not like your Kingdom of Fire. It occupies a huge territory and has abundant resources. Every step of our development requires hundreds or thousands of times of effort. But even so, the king and the people are of one mind and will work together with the soldiers. Why?
Are you saying that you have no one to rely on?"
"You can just go to the streets and ask if there are any subjects who don't love my father?"
After being retorted by Fenghua Xiaoxue, Linglong was not angry at all. The purpose of this trip was, firstly, to destroy Fenghua Furudao, the usurper who wanted to use his force to redeem himself. Secondly, it was to annex the Kingdom of Snow and further expand the territory of the Republic.
Liberate more working people.
In the face of annexation, the old ruling class is naturally unwilling to give in. Especially the annexation here is not the same as the traditional annexation. After experiencing the revolution, the Fire Nation and the new Fire Republic have a different attitude towards the powerful people of the old era.
Know.
A "famous name" like Fenghua Xiaoxue should have been swept into the dustbin of history long ago.
No matter whether she and her father are wise masters or tyrants, the outcome will not change in any way.
"The new era is coming, and the general trend of human liberation is absolute. Any young person who stands in front of it will inevitably be crushed into powder. This is a destined fact..."
Linglong spoke slowly, raised her head, looked at the city, and looked at the civilians wandering in the streets and alleys, paying attention to the situation here, smiled softly, and said half-jokingly:
"Perhaps, the people of Snow Country are indeed very happy under the rule of you and your father, but what I want to say is..."
"After surrendering to the Republic, they will soon realize that the happiness they had in the past years was not real happiness."
"You!" Fenghua Xiaoxue's eyes widened, and she seemed to want to say something, but at this moment, there was a scream from the sky, and then a cold wave roared in, and the surrounding temperature instantly dropped to 20 degrees below zero.
went up and dropped another 20 degrees.
Bang! Click!
Pointing toes on the ground, white frost filled the air, blue light flashed, and a white cloak was flying around.
The ultra-low temperature freezing air blew into everyone's cheeks and hurt.
Ice fell from the sky, and he raised his hand casually, and Feng Hua, who had been beaten into a coma, immediately rolled on the ground. It didn't stop until it hit the edge of the wall, and two arms that were frozen into ice cubes were broken in half.
"It's so boring."
Yawning and ignoring the frightened looks of the snow ninjas, Bing walked slowly to Linglong, leaned on her shoulder with one hand, and complained with a look of despair: "This kind of guy, leave it to Naruto."
That’s fine, why let me take action?”
Before Linglong could say anything, Naruto expressed his dissatisfaction first and said: "Hey! Auntie Bing, it was obviously you who said, "We are both Ice Release Ninjutsu, it seems worth looking forward to", so you took the initiative to take over my task, right?"
After hearing the words, Bing paused, let go of Linglong, squinted his eyes, his face was so gloomy that it seemed like he could drip water, and asked coldly to Naruto: "Boy, what did you just call me?"
