Chapter 126 Loulan
"Huh? What is this?"
It is a semi-elliptical shape with a cylindrical bulge at the upper end. The whole thing feels like an excavated fossil and has a sense of age.
If you look carefully, there is a large circle on it, with a square inside it. Inside the square are nine circles of the same size, arranged in a nine-square grid, giving people a rather mysterious feeling.
Qingzhi was stunned for a moment, feeling like he had seen this thing somewhere before.
But he just can't remember it. Generally speaking, the things that are impressed in his mind are probably not simple.
There will definitely be a big difference between the two-dimensional things and the three-dimensional appearance.
Tsunade took it over, took a look at it, and said, "It looks like some broken stone. Throw it away."
She didn't just say it, she actually lost it.
Fortunately, Qing Pheasant had quick eyes and quick hands, so she was not thrown away.
"Hey, don't throw my things away."
"It's just a broken rock, why are you nervous?"
"You know what the heck, this thing looks so dated, maybe it's some kind of antique. Maybe it can be sold for a lot of money."
"cut……"
"Humph."
Neither of them could understand the other, so they turned their heads to each other, turned their backs to each other, and left each other.
Sato looked at the two of them and shook his head helplessly.
These two people had been quarreling a lot on the boat these days, as if they felt uncomfortable if they didn't quarrel for a day.
Sato saw all this.
The Senju clan and the Uchiha clan have always had a close relationship.
At this point, I couldn't help but sigh that the two of them deservedly inherited the bloodline of Senju and Uchiha.
On the other side, Aokiji washed the antique-looking thing with water to remove the fishy smell. It wasn't too strong anyway, so he put it in his backpack and carried it with him.
………………
Late May.
The country of wind, desert area.
The sand is blowing in the wind, the sand is flying, and the rocks are flying. As far as the eye can see, there is nothing but sand.
It was already hot enough in the desert in the morning, and by noon it was even hotter than an oven, distorting space.
"It's so hot..."
Qing Pheasant drank the last sip of water from the kettle and complained.
He now felt that there was only a layer of cumin left between him and the barbecue.
It's obviously late December, but the weather is even hotter than summer.
It is really difficult for Sand Hidden Village to survive in such a difficult environment.
He didn't understand why he didn't want to move his house if the environment was so bad.
It is difficult for the other four major countries to occupy the magpie's nest, but for the other small countries, with the ability of Sand Hidden Village, isn't it possible for them to do whatever they want?
Is it possible that there are still some humanistic feelings?
Just when he was complaining about this, Tsunade, who was wearing a hooded windbreaker next to her, said: "It's so hot, Aokiji, use your ice escape to cool me down."
"No, I'm not your portable refrigerator."
Qing Pheasant said he refused, and without stopping, he summoned some ice cubes and distributed them to his companions.
White Fang took the ice cube and thanked him. The hot weather did not have much impact on him, but since it was the other party's kindness, he accepted it.
He took a special look at Aokiji and thought to himself that this was an interesting Uchiha. He didn't have the blood successor limit of Sharingan, but he had the blood successor limit of Ice Release.
Tsunade curled her lips and said, "That's pretty much it."
Then, when it was her turn, she was depressed to find that she didn't seem to have any weight.
￣へ￣
Where's the ice?
Where are her ice cubes?
Qing Zhi said angrily: "No, you can figure it out yourself."
When Tsunade heard this, she was unhappy and turned her face away from him.
"Why do you have any objections? Please beg me. Maybe I will be merciful and make some ice cubes to take pity on you."
Tsunade said with a smile: "You deserve a beating, right?"
"Ah, here we go again." Sato shook his head: "Sakumo, you are about the same age as these two people, please give them some advice."
"Forget it, I don't want to get involved in this kind of thing. Anyway, after a while, these two people will reconcile again."
White Fang smiled bitterly.
Aokiji and Tsunade had just been arguing for a while when they noticed something emerging in front of them and stopped talking back.
Tsunade was unyielding and said, "Why don't you say anything? Do you know you are afraid?"
"Idiot, look what that is!"
Qingzhi put away his playful attitude and pointed to a huge building standing in the distance.
Following his gaze, Tsunade also noticed: "Could this be that Lou Lan?"
"I'm afraid so..."
Seeing the desert surrounding the building, Qingzhi couldn't help but wonder, how on earth could this building be built? Even if it was built, what would happen to the daily life and food?
There is desert all around. Let's not talk about food. I'm afraid it will be difficult to feed the residents of this city just from the consumption of that water source.
With this kind of doubt, Qing Pheasant and his team members entered Loulan. It was only after entering that he finally knew how Loulan gained a foothold in this desert.
In fact, it's very simple. The inside of Loulan is completely different from the desert outside. The buildings here are tall, slender, and dense. They are mainly white and have a very European modern style. Don't even compare it with Sand Hidden Village. Even if you compare the relatively affluent Konoha Village to this place, it looks like a slum.
Just looking at the buildings, you can tell how prosperous this place is, not to mention that there is ample water, rich supplies, and even a different climate. It is really hard to believe that there is a desert outside.
It would make sense if there was a barrier around Loulan, but this Loulan doesn't look like it can form a barrier.
He didn't see a single ninja along the way, and he even arranged a ridiculous barrier. Ordinary people didn't react at all to the barrier, so naturally it was impossible to create a barrier that was superfluous.
With such doubts, Qingzhi followed the team members into a hotel. Instead of booking a room, he walked straight to a room number and knocked politely on the door.
Not long after, a middle-aged man walked out, with a gloomy appearance and a scrutinizing gaze as he looked at several people.
Sato exchanged the code with him, and the man's expression immediately became soothed. He invited a few people into the room and then closed the door.
He is the Sunagakure ninja who is responsible for picking up Aokiji and the others. He is mainly responsible for collecting the corpses of Viper and confirming that the Konoha ninja can kill the target as agreed.
The Sunagakure ninja noticed Aokiji and the others, frowned, and said in an accusing tone: "Why are they all children? What's wrong with you Konoha ninjas?"
Sato smiled and said: "Simply evaluating a ninja's strength based on appearance is not the behavior a qualified ninja should have."
The Sunagakure ninja kept a straight face and remained silent.
Out of curiosity, Qingzhi asked about Loulan and why it was so different.
This Sunagakure ninja put on a bad face and seemed to say no more unnecessary things.
The green pheasant is asking for trouble.
Sato smoothed things over and said, "All in all, let's make a plan first and accomplish our goals."
The Sunagakure ninja nodded.
