It’s New Year’s Eve to celebrate the holiday and relax from stress.
That night, [Yanyin Village] held another huge bonfire party.
Originally, within the ninja world.
New Year's Day is also the most important holiday.
But due to years of fighting, ninjas perform tasks almost year-round.
As a result, the meaning of the festival is quite important in the eyes of ordinary people.
But within each hidden village, it became increasingly weak.
After all, I’m working overtime during the New Year! Where is the time to celebrate?
So, such a contrast.
[Yanyin Village] Although the squeeze is not light.
But in terms of remuneration, holidays and other benefits, they are still very preferential...
Natsume himself even waved his hand.
Direct special approval, except for the guards who are on duty in turn, will give everyone a seven-day long holiday.
This made the village particularly lively on New Year's Eve.
Almost all the people joined the party and were full of joy.
Zabuza danced a striptease...
Deidara performed clay art...
Riyao and Yin are still performing fencing with each other...
Everyone was laughing wildly.
Even Natsume himself.
They were all immersed in a sea of joy.
He quietly bought himself a few glasses of sake and indulged himself.
He didn't even bother to use chakra to sober up.
After all, even though I have never touched alcohol in my life.
But Natsume is absolutely confident in his ability to drink!
Very quickly, within a few minutes.
Someone fell down on Sister Yueji's long legs in a daze.
And vaguely felt that it was wrapped in a piece of softness.
Until he was sent home, he fell asleep happily...
…
The next day, Natsume woke up in a daze and quickly changed a set of bedding for herself.
I slept very warmly last night!
Could it be that someone warmed his bed?
"Damn it! Drinking makes things worse!"
"The body is too small and still in the development stage. It is true that the resistance to alcohol is not high."
"If I had known better, I should have used chakra to dissolve the alcohol!"
"It's a pity, I didn't enjoy enough last night..."
Natsume secretly regretted it.
He quickly washed up and went downstairs to have breakfast.
The workmanship of the maid Noonoyu is as good as ever; the freshly heated milk is very white and thick...
Natsume had a delicious meal.
Then, the business started immediately.
At the beginning of the new year, I do have important things to do.
…
"Psychic art!"
Natsume suddenly activated his psychic technique and summoned 'Mooncake'.
Mooncakes at the moment.
I am taking a pleasant nap.
He even picked up his short legs and ate them in front of the tender bamboo, leaving a mouthful of food.
"Hey! Lazy boy, wake up."
Natsume grabbed the mini 'mooncake' and shook it awake.
"Who? Who is disturbing my nap?"
"Natsume!"
"It's you little brat again!"
"Let me down quickly!"
Mooncake roared with fangs and claws, not much more ferocious than a little cat, and no threat at all.
Natsume put down the mooncake and joked with a smile:
"Sleep after you're full. Eat when you wake up. Can you do something serious? You've come full circle again..."
"Do you care?"
"After so long, you finally think of me? Have you encountered any problems again?"
"But let's say it first. If you want me to help you, you can."
"But the price has increased! Don't even think about it if you don't get double the reward this time!"
Mooncake sat down on the table, hugged his two front paws, and said angrily.
in short.
If you want to help, you have to add money first!
Natsume pursed her lips and directly rewarded the moon cake with a dunk.
Of course, the intensity is very light.
And he urged with a smile and curse:
"Why are you pretending to be a big-tailed wolf?"
"Today is New Year's Day, and I'm going to visit the old man."
"Go back quickly, activate the counter-spiritual technique, and channel me."
"Hurry up!"
Mooncake covered her head with a fierce look on her face.
He began to shout dissatisfiedly:
"Why?"
"I don't accept it!"
Natsume didn't waste any time and just handed him a big chicken drumstick that was bigger than the mooncake itself.
"Is this enough?"
Moon Cake hugged the big chicken leg and sniffed it, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
Change your words now:
"Well...just do it!"
"Just wait, I'll take you there right away."
After saying that, he held the big chicken leg with difficulty and turned into a ball of white mist with a bang.
Went back in an instant.
…
Very quickly, no more than ten seconds.
A cloud of white mist exploded.
Natsume's entire body also disappeared.
In an instant, the power of time and space was activated.
Natsume traveled thousands of kilometers and came to another secret holy land.
【貊竹台】
The habitat of the psychic beast panda clan, which is also the hometown of Mooncake.
Actually.
All the existing psychic beasts in the ninja world, except for the ninja dogs raised directly by the Inuzuka clan.
The other psychic beasts usually live in their own secret habitats.
Most of these habitats are secretive and difficult for ordinary ninjas to detect.
You can even think of them as secret realms.
These secret realms not only exist within the ninja world, but are also independent from the ninja world...
The natural energy inside is extremely rich.
It's like an independent large barrier.
Without special means or approval, ordinary people cannot enter at all!
Of course, the three most well-preserved places are [Miaomu Mountain], [Ryuji Cave] and [Moist Bone Forest], which are also called the three holy places.
In addition to the three holy places, the other psychic beasts also have their own habitats.
Otherwise, these psychic beasts would not be able to survive...
And this [Bamboo Terrace] is the exclusive habitat of the psychic beast panda clan.
…
If you think about it carefully, this is Natsume's third time here.
The scenery here is really good.
Close to mountains and rivers, it looks like a round basin.
Green and lush, it resembles the land of Bashu in the current world in Xia Dynasty. It can be said to be beautiful, agile and uncanny.
Of course, the premise is to ignore the large tracts of abandoned bamboo forest that have been gnawed bare.
Obviously, it's been many years.
With unbridled squandering.
The bamboo rations in this secret territory are far from being able to meet the eating needs of the mooncake clan.
What's more, there is also a ruthless bear with a huge appetite like his third uncle Tongluo.
If not, Mooncake would not have been kicked out by the old man and forced to travel all the way to the five major countries to seek alliances.
Let alone meet Natsume and sign a psychic blood pact with him.
"I'll have to suggest to the old man later that we need to take care of this place."
"If we continue like this, I'm afraid all the bamboo here will die..."
"Forget it, let's bring more rations when we get back."
Natsume decided secretly.
Of course, he didn't come here for sightseeing this time.
But I really want to consult the old man about something.
"Mooncake, is the old man at home?"
"Here, there, there!"
"He is already that age, where else can he go?"
"Go find him yourself and don't interfere with my work!"
Mooncake waved impatiently.
I just want to get rid of this brat Natsume quickly so that I can have a full meal!
Otherwise, the conversation will take too long.
If my third uncle smells the aroma of these big chicken drumsticks, I have no share in it...
…
