Chapter 1065 Situation
Two hours later.
It turns out...it's like this...
Looking at Zong Mi with a worried face beside the bed, and his little bald head hiding behind Zong Mi, Qianye frowned slightly, and forced himself to hold back the sigh in his mouth, a flash of clarity flashed in his heart .
In the previous two hours, Zong Mi explained the situation here to himself carefully.
"This is the predicament we are facing now, and I don't know what to do next? If this continues, I'm afraid..."
At this time, Zong Mi looked at Qianye who was frowning, pursed his lips, glanced at the little bald head sticking out of his head, touched it lightly, and sighed.
Although he is just an ordinary boy who is only fourteen years old, this sigh is full of sorrow, definitely not a sigh that a normal child can utter. It can be seen that this Zong Mi has a certain kind of sadness under the appearance of a boy. A mature heart tempered by an extreme environment that doesn't match her age.
This Taki Chiba can be trusted.
At this time, such a thought flashed through Somina's mature heart that did not conform to his appearance. During his narration, he also kept observing this Konoha ninja who looked younger than himself, and with his Intuition, judged that this Konoha ninja could be trusted.
His intuition told him that this Konoha boy wanted to help them.
Also, trustworthy.
Indeed, if this continues, everything may really be...
And hearing Zong Mi's words, Chiba couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
He didn't have any doubts about Zong Mi's words. In this narration, Zong Mi was observing him, and he was also observing Zong Mi. He could tell that what Zong Mi said was the truth. This young man really sincerely begged he.
From Zong Mi's narration, he already had a general idea of the situation here, and even had a good understanding of it.
His location at this time is in a forest in the hinterland of the Kingdom of Grass. The geographical location is not so hidden, and the forest is also quite open. To the west is a large grassland, and to the southeast is an uninhabited village that was abandoned due to the flames of war. Town, the east, north and west are all flat landforms such as grassland.
The house he is in now is the residence of a hunter in this forest. There is another house next to this house, because the hunter has long since disappeared, and now it has been taken over by Zong Mi and the little bald head. home.
And here is not only Zongya and little bald-headed Mingtai living here, there are about six or seven people living here together, and here, including Zongya and little bald-headed Mingtai, are all orphans of the war, Zongya should be the oldest here, He and another teenager of similar age are in charge of the group of orphans.
As for their lives, even if Zongya didn't say anything, Qianye knew it well. This is the hinterland of the country of grass, and it's on the battlefield. It's pretty good that these children are still alive. Looking at the thin appearance of Zong Mi and the little bald head, it is basically a matter of starvation.
And the fact is the same, these orphans basically rely on the few food and supplies in the abandoned town and go to the nearby battlefield to search for the corpses of ninjas from both sides. The food is very scarce, and some daily necessities are also quite short. Hunger and cold are basically daily routines. Even in this forest, it is not absolutely safe. This forest is quite large, and there are some carnivorous beasts living in it, which is also a great threat to these orphans. Even, once There has been a case of wild animals attacking here and killing an orphan. All of them are ordinary people, and because of long-term starvation and emaciation, they can't deal with these carnivorous beasts at all.
It can be said that the lives of these children can be described as miserable.
What's worse, the abandoned town, which is the main source of food and supplies, has been ransacked by them a few days ago, and no food or supplies can be found anymore. The food reserves of these children will be exhausted starting tomorrow up.
In other words, starting tomorrow, they will face the desperate situation of not being able to find food.
This is also the reason why Zong Mi knelt down and begged him.
At the same time, Chiba also understood why the little bald Mingtai and even Zongya were afraid of him, but they still rescued him.
Even, why there is fear of him, I understand.
In the current situation, these children alone cannot survive. They must find someone to help.
But now, during the war, all the daimyos of the Country of Grass have gone to other countries to take refuge, and even Cao Yin Village has been reduced to mercenaries of the major ninja villages. As for civilians, even adults may not be able to protect themselves, let alone These weak orphans?
Moreover, they are in the hinterland, which is basically the center of the battlefield ahead of Konoha and Iwain. It can be said that they are caught in the gap of the war. If they leave this area, they may only have a dead end.
Unable to leave, and unable to guarantee survival, they are still facing a desperate situation.
The only way is to find someone to help to relieve the desperate situation, otherwise, they can only starve to death, or die in the fighting of ninjas on the battlefield.
And those who can help them, ridiculously, can only be the initiators of the war... Ninjas, ordinary adults, have no way to give them safety and life guarantee.
As for the fear of oneself, it must be that these children have witnessed the brutal behavior of many ninjas when they searched the battlefield, and they may not even have experienced the atrocities of ninjas. Even if they have not seen ninjas, experiencing the cruelty of this war to them, It is not uncommon for them to instinctively fear the word ninja and this identity
And to sum up, it is not difficult to explain why they are afraid of themselves and want to save themselves.
These children are saving him and at the same time saving themselves.
Risk your life, save yourself, save him too.
After all, these orphans don't know whether Taki Chiba is a kind ninja, will help them, favor their ninja, or treat their ninja cruelly.
"The situation, I know."
After sighing in his heart, Qianye, who wanted to understand everything, nodded slightly, and said.
"Um……"
Zong Mi responded to Qianye's words, but didn't speak any more, but looked at Qianye.
He knew that although this Konoha ninja wanted to help them, he didn't make a clear promise.
Without a clear promise, he didn't dare to say anything more.
What he can do now is to pray to Konoha's ninja to agree that their fate depends entirely on his thoughts.
To be honest, this feeling is not good, he hates the feeling of begging others, he doesn't like begging.
But, for the sake of others, he had to do it.
That's why, he knelt down and begged.
none of them.
For others?
But at this time, feeling Zongya's gaze, Qianye knew Zongya's thoughts without looking. He understood Zongya's feelings very well, and at the same time, he also had a trace of admiration.
Yes, admiration.
If Hirohiko and Xue Nai encountered a situation where he could only get out of danger by kneeling and begging, to be honest, he might not be able to let go of that dignity to kneel and beg.
And the young man in front of him is by no means the kind of person who would beg for help easily. For the sake of his partner, he humbly lowered his dignity and knelt down to beg for help. This definitely required great courage and enough attention to his partner.
"So, what do I need to do..."
Thinking of this, Chiba hesitated a little, and said.
