"Isn't this bad?" Tiantian said hesitantly.
"What's wrong!" Naruto immediately retorted, "Obviously completing the mission safely is the most important thing. Although we are ninjas, we can't let our clients do whatever they want."
"You can make more money, but you only have one life. It's obviously not cost-effective to gamble with your companion's life with this kind of unknown brother fetish!"
Neji was silent and stared out the window for a long time.
Tiantian also fell silent, wringing his fingers and struggling for a long time.
"Tie him up!" Neji gritted his teeth and said!
"Yes! It must be tied up!" Tiantian said decisively, "This time the opponent may be one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, so we can't take risks."
"I'll tie up that Liusuke. Anyway, I'm not in the third class. You all can't do anything hard, but I can." Naruto said neatly with a smile on his face.
"I'll make him an offer he can't refuse. There won't be any complaints."
Almost instinctively, Tiantian shivered, always feeling that this mission would not go so smoothly. Especially with the addition of Naruto, it seems to have become more dangerous.
An hour and a half later.
The third team, together with three villagers and a yellow-haired temporary worker, embarked on a journey to the Kingdom of Sichuan. The task came in such a hurry that there was no time to do anything.
Kyuubi was left at home to look after the house, and there was enough food in the refrigerator. He was not worried that Kyuubi would be stupid enough to starve to death. Even if you go out to look for food, you will still be full.
It rains a lot in Kawakuni. Due to the influence of altitude and terrain, heavy rains in Kawakuni are mainly concentrated in summer and early autumn, which is different from the situation in Fire Country where rainfall is even throughout the year.
There was an autumn rain and a cold, and there was a heavy rain when they crossed the border of the Land of Fire. The group was forced to hide in an abandoned cave.
The three villagers leading the way always felt a little nervous, but nothing happened every time they looked up.
But the closer we get to the Country of Sichuan, the more obvious this uneasy feeling becomes.
Tiantian is a little nervous, it is the first time in his life that he will do something to a client, although the purpose is for the sake of the task. They successfully completed the task, which was also a good thing for the three villagers.
but……
In comparison, Naruto was much calmer.
He observed that Liusuke was too silent along the way. He basically didn't speak. His face was serious, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Under normal circumstances, the bad guys are often people who have no ability but have a lot of ideas.
Five days later.
"Finally we're almost there!" said the strong bearded villager, pointing to the tall mountains hidden in the forest, "That! That's the sorrel gold mine!"
The bare mountain towers into the clouds, like a huge irregular stone monument, but it contains gleaming gold mines.
When the three villagers were all looking up at the mines in their hometown in the same direction, Naruto was so jealous that he gritted his teeth. He suddenly understood why the Black Hoe Thunder Tooth enslaved this village.
"I remembered!" Xiao Li suddenly became energetic and pointed in another direction and said, "Ahead is Grandma Sanjiao's curry shop!"
Curry, just saying that made Naruto hungry.
He looked back and saw that everyone except Liusuke was looking at Xiao Li. Even the two villagers were no longer feeling nostalgic, and their stomachs began to growl.
The look in his eyes almost speaks for itself, that’s it for now, let’s eat first!
Liusuke looked at the expressions of the two villagers, his face became even more gloomy, and he walked to the roadside without saying a word and squatted down to rest.
Naruto's peripheral vision never left Liusuke. When he heard Xiao Li say that there was a familiar curry shop in front of him, he subconsciously sensed that the opportunity to take action had come.
He turned to look at Tenten and Neji. The three of them exchanged glances tacitly and reached a consensus in an instant.
If this bad guy doesn't get under control, what else is there to do? He might as well just wash his neck and die. Nipping threats in the bud as early as possible is what normal people do.
Granny Sanjiao's curry shop is a bit old, a two-story civilian brick building with a simple style. There was no signboard hanging at the door of the store. An old man was sweeping the door with a broom and a basin.
"Grandma Sanjiao!" Xiao Li didn't know about the three people's plan. He ran to the old man excitedly and lifted her up and spun her around several times.
"Here! Here! This is Sanjiao Granny!" Xiao Li enthusiastically introduced Sanjiao Granny to his companions and ordered the store's signature spicy curry.
"Neji! Tenten, Naruto! It's delicious!"
"If you don't believe me, try it!"
“Grandma Sanjiao’s curry is the best in the world!”
The three of them were sitting in the lobby. Neji couldn't stand the enthusiastic Xiao Li and ordered a signature curry. While Tenten was still hesitating, Naruto suddenly raised his hand and spoke.
“A plain curry please!”
Xiao Li burst into tears instantly: "Naruto, you don't believe me?"
"It's not that I don't believe it, I don't like heavy talk." Naruto touched his chin, pointed at the three villagers at another table and said, "Give the three of them a sign each, I think they may need it more. "
Ten minutes later, except for Tiantian, Naruto, and Xiao Li, everyone else's throats were spitting fire as expected.
Anal Iron Man Xiao Li doesn't care whether it's spicy or not, he shows off with a huge mouthful of enjoyment.
Halfway through the meal, Liusuke suddenly asked to go out and take a breath.
Xiao Li was still gulping down his meal and didn't notice that Naruto, Tenten, and Neji had stopped eating at the same time.
There was no hesitation, and the cooperation between the three of them was flawless. In less than half a minute, three villagers were tied into rice dumplings and thrown on the ground. Naruto got a rag from nowhere and blocked Liusuke's mouth.
"Woooooooooo!!!" Liusuke reacted fiercely and kept struggling.
In contrast, his two villagers looked confused and kept asking what happened.
"It's okay. I just need your cooperation and stay here for a day so as not to hinder our mission." Neji had fully accepted Naruto's theory and quickly put it into practice.
"We want to complete the mission, you want to save the village, our purpose is the same." Neji paused, glanced at the two people who were not gagged and said.
"Please tell us everything you know and tell us the specific information about the village. Once the Black Hoe family is driven out of your village, I will keep this matter a secret for you."
The two villagers were tied up and looked at each other with no better choice.
Liusuke was still whining at the side, as if he wanted to say something.
Naruto kicked him unceremoniously and said disgustedly.
"What are you whining about, Thomas the Tank Engine?"
"You were asked not to say a word when you were talking, and now you think of talking?"
"Naruto, let him speak."
Hearing this, Naruto nodded and reluctantly took out the rag from Liusuke's mouth.
"Cough cough cough!!" Liusuke coughed several times and said, "The thugs of the Black Hoe family are all from the village. They are holding a funeral right now. I heard the death knell!"
Naruto clicked his tongue: "There are quite a few young men in your village!"
