Zhong Er Shi Bing Wo Bu Zhi
Ling had already expected that he would encounter a lot of trouble on the road after taking off his clan uniform, but he never expected that in just half a day's journey, he would encounter three robbers - but it was not necessarily true that they were robbers.
His steps were feeble and feeble, he was waving weapons for no reason and wasting energy, and his voice was full of fear and trembling uncontrollably... Even if he couldn't see their appearance with his own eyes, Ling could be sure that the people who came to rob him were just a group of people without any combat training. Ordinary people.
Ling didn't even need to pull out his sword, he just used it as a stick and beat all these people until they cried for their parents and ran away.
"Are they provocative?" Yata squatted firmly on Ling's shoulder, "Why don't you kill them?"
"They're just ordinary people who were forced into desperation," Ling shook his head, "It's just to survive, there's no need to kill them all - besides, I didn't deliberately withdraw my strength, those few blows were enough to hurt them.
Furthermore, they are citizens of the Kingdom of Thunder, and I am a ninja of the Kingdom of Fire. Attacking their citizens rashly without hiring them is likely to be regarded as a provocation and cause unnecessary disputes. "
Yata tilted his head, "Hmm... But it stands to reason that this is helping the other party to pacify the country, right? The more good things like this that don't require compensation, the better, right?"
"It's because they don't need any reward that they get into trouble..." Ling let out a chuckle, "Although those nobles don't have much strength, their suspicion can easily destroy a ninja clan.
Just like this time, the Kaguya family clearly has the strength to easily kill all the nobles of the Land of Thunder, but they still have to be controlled by them, stop their actions against us, and even have to rein in the family's power amid those groundless accusations.
If someone wants to operate it in the future... Well, with luck, I might still be alive to witness their expulsion from the Kingdom of Thunder. "
"Didn't you say that those nobles are weaker than ninjas?" Yata tilted his head, "Weak people shouldn't have the right to speak, right?"
"Well, although I did say this, when the number of ants reaches a certain level, they can kill an elephant. Compared to ordinary people, the base number of ninjas is only one in hundreds of thousands or even a million. One percent, and their abilities vary greatly. If ordinary people really resist, the ninja will definitely be defeated.
But even the weakest ninja is beyond the reach of ordinary people. Therefore, in order to avoid a fierce conflict between the two sides, ninjas are not allowed to engage in production or own land. Accordingly, nobles and civilians need to hire ninjas to perform tasks so that ninjas can obtain the capital to survive. ——And to put it another way, hiring ninjas to perform tasks is much more economical in terms of efficiency and funding than cultivating an army yourself. "
The smile on Ling's lips faded a little, "It is for all the reasons mentioned above that ninjas will not kill civilians and the nobles who rule them at will. However, this relationship is undoubtedly fragile, distorted and incorrect. As long as there is a mistake in one place , the order of the entire world will directly collapse.
It's a pity that I'm just a lunatic who enjoys fighting. Even if I dabble in it a little, I'm destined to be short-sighted. I can only see the shortcomings, but can't find a solution - well, but even if I can find a solution, I should You won't do it, will you? "
"Why Ga?"
"Because ninjas are a profession that relies on fighting to survive... If there is world peace, we who only know how to fight will be cooked by cunning rabbits and dead lackeys."
"It's really complicated."
"Yeah, it's really complicated... huh?" Ling stopped and turned to the side of the forest, showing a little helplessness, "Although I know that the folk customs of the Land of Thunder are more fierce than those of the Land of Fire, we encountered four emergencies a day. …Are the rulers here really managing the country well?”
"I think this has something to do with your choice of the forest path, Master."
"But taking the main road requires traffic and customs duties. Although I'm not wearing my ethnic uniform now, I'll be in trouble if I'm really investigated..." Ling sighed and moved a little further to the side of the road, "I want to avoid the pointless Something about——"
Unfortunately, before Ling could take a few steps, he heard footsteps heading straight for him. The leader of the group collided directly with him. Feeling the force and location of the impact, Ling frowned. Deeper - a child?
Along with the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground, a crying female voice sounded, "It hurts!"
"Are you okay? Are you injured?" Ling lowered his head, "I'm sorry, I didn't notice you."
"No, I'm fine. Rather than that, can you help-" the girl's voice filled with tears and pleading stopped abruptly, replaced by shock, "You, can't you see?"
Ling didn't mean to avoid it, he just nodded calmly, "Yes, I lost my eyes for some reasons."
"you--"
The girl wanted to say something more, but the chaotic footsteps and the sound of breaking branches made her particularly uneasy. Ling, who was one step away from her, could even hear her breathing that had stopped due to excessive tension.
"I'm really sorry, but please help me," the girl's voice became more panicked, but still very low. "You can walk alone in such a situation. You must have something to rely on, right? I can give you a reward. , please save me!"
Ling shook his head slightly, "As you can see, I'm just a blind man passing by."
The girl was still about to say something, but a malicious shout came from behind her. She no longer hesitated, raised her hand to wipe away her tears, and spoke quietly but quickly, "I'm sorry, I was rude...please allow me to offend." "
As soon as he finished speaking, Ling felt the girl in front of him push him hard. At the same time, she also raised her voice, "Get out of here! You blind person who is in the way!"
Ling understood that the other party wanted to draw a clear line with him, so he fell into the grass on the side of the road without any resistance. At the same time, he could hear the other party quietly apologizing.
"She is a nice person. Even under such circumstances, she still remembers to put aside the relationship with you." Yata landed on the branch above Ling's head, staring at the girl's running back with a pair of dark eyes, "Why don't you help me?" Is she?"
"Hey, she is indeed a nice person." Ling listened to the approaching shouts and sat up in a leisurely manner, "But the words she used just now were obviously from aristocratic education, and I don't want to get into trouble."
Just as one person and one crow were talking, chaotic footsteps approached. Some of them ran towards the direction the girl left, while the rest stopped in front of Ling.
"That little bitch can really run away. What's wrong with this blind man?"
"Brother, I saw the scattered salutes here. There is nothing suspicious. It should be an ordinary blind man passing by."
"Okay, be smart with your actions. Leaking news here is not a glorious thing."
"Yes."
Hearing the sound of the sword being drawn from the opposite side, Ling let out a long sigh and pushed the sword out of the sheath with the thumb and index finger of his right hand. "...It's true that the tree is still but the wind is not stopping."
His steps were feeble and feeble, he was waving weapons for no reason and wasting energy, and his voice was full of fear and trembling uncontrollably... Even if he couldn't see their appearance with his own eyes, Ling could be sure that the people who came to rob him were just a group of people without any combat training. Ordinary people.
