The underground passages in the empty area are intricate and intricate, almost like an endless underground maze.
Unless you have the Byakugan of the Hinata family or the insects of the Aburame family, even experienced ninjas will definitely have difficulty finding the correct path in this dark, musty 'maze'.
I don't know how long I walked with Hina, but when a faint light appeared in my field of vision, I knew that the final destination of this trip had arrived.
'Squeak. '
The thick wooden door was pushed open, and the dark and damp atmosphere was instantly separated between the two areas. There were also faint sounds of "meow" and "meow" coming from the milk cat.
"Mother-in-law, the Uchiha brat is here. He's a very discerning new face."
Based on the role of souvenirs, Hina had a good initial sense of Ara, and after sneaking into the stronghold, she took the initiative to introduce him to the owner of the house.
"I know, come on in kid."
A kind and gentle voice came from inside the house.
"excuse me."
Standing at the door, Huang Qing said quietly before stepping into this clean and warm store.
What catches the eye are all kinds of ninja tools hanging on both sides of the wall and placed on the table: from standard kunai and shuriken, to customized ribs and samurai swords, to more expensive detonating charms and sealing charms. It can be said that it has everything.
The owner of this place is sitting cross-legged in the center of the hall. She is an elderly woman, wearing black cat ears. She is holding a cigarette stick that is burning with lingering smoke. There are curled up around her body. Cute little kittens, those meowing sounds are what they make.
"Just call me Grandma Cat."
"Xiao Huan, take out that knife."
Looking at the young man standing in her sight, Grandma Cat took a puff of her dry cigarette and nodded slightly.
The bloody and indifferent aura that was disgusted by the monks in the Fire Temple was, in Yu Zhi's eyes, exactly the temperament a qualified ninja needed to possess.
Especially this ninja comes from the first family in the ninja world, Uchiha.
"Okay~"
There was a crisp echo in the inner room that was blocked by the curtain.
Not long after, the curtain was opened, and a short-haired girl in ninja uniform walked out holding a horizontal sword. She had a pair of amber eyes, which were very smart and beautiful.
ring.
Grandma Cat's granddaughter.
"This is the chakra knife that Yashiro asked me to order. I guess it was made for you, right? Ara, Uchiha Ara."
The old woman smoking a cigarette was talking to herself, and she called out the boy's name. It should have been informed by Yashiro Uchiha in the communication.
"yes."
"Thanks."
After taking the blade from the girl's hand, Ara couldn't wait to press his right hand on the handle of the knife. After several times of relaxation and tightening, he got used to the texture of the new blade.
On the battlefield, apart from the monsters with whom he had made a contract, the only thing left that he could trust wholeheartedly was the war blade in his hand.
The chakra knife he was accustomed to used had long been damaged on the northern border. Until now, he didn't have a handy weapon. Now it's rare to get a war blade similar to the one before, so it's no wonder he is so impatient. .
'choke. '
The blade of the blade lightly brushed against the inner sheath, making a clear sound of invitation to fight. A cold, cold light poured down from the edge of the blade. The style was simple but inexplicably menacing. It was also an inch longer than the horizontal sword that Huang used before. The blade is also slightly heavier.
"how?"
Grandma Cat asked with narrowed eyes.
"very good."
"Thanks."
Huang's sight couldn't be separated from this war blade.
Now it lacks only one thing: stained with the blood of its enemies.
"Well, that's fine if you like it."
"Did you bring the space scroll? If not, you will have to pay extra when picking up the goods."
Grandma Cat continued.
She is a businesswoman after all, and after all the politeness, it's business.
"Bring it."
Hearing the sound, Huang Ye quickly suppressed the joy in his eyes and took off all the scrolls tied to his body.
These are high-grade space scrolls purchased by the Uchiha clan at a high price. Each one has a large enough space, and after storing the objects inside, it will not increase any weight.
This is why the clan sent him alone to get the ninja tools.
"Okay, Tian Huo and Hina will go load the goods to the guests. Ara, just wait here for a while."
Granny Cat smoked a dry cigarette and directed everything.
"Yeah, got it, meow."
Hina reluctantly put down the 'Mutian Polygonum' under her claws, jumped up to Huang and took out a scroll.
Tian Huo was like this too. He bit the scroll and disappeared with a swish, leaving behind a sentence: "Wait a moment, kid."
The speed of the ninja cat is indeed not comparable to that of ordinary ninjas.
While waiting, some bold kittens came to Huang's feet. They seemed to smell something and kept raising their round little heads and meowing non-stop.
"Do you want this?"
After Huang Wei thought for a moment, he took out a bottle of 'Mutian Polygonum' from his arms and shook it gently in his hand.
"Meow meow, meow meow..."
Immediately, the kittens surrounding him began to meow more happily. There was even a black and white cat that backed up and stood up, relying on the rolling flesh, and began to use its front paws to pull up the boy's trouser legs.
"Grandma Cat?"
Huang raised his head and began to seek the opinions of the owners of these little guys.
"Give less, they are not ninja cats."
Grandma Cat responded while puffing out tobacco.
"These little bastards have really good noses."
She whispered softly.
After getting the answer, Ara unscrewed the cap of the bottle, poured the brown celery fruit into his hand, squatted down and started eating.
Suddenly, all the cats in the house became restless, and even some timid cats began to follow the smell. Only a few small kittens were intercepted by the mother-in-law cat, and their staggering steps were stopped.
The cat's tongue is very soft, and even if Huang's palms are calluses from training, he can still feel the slightly itchy touch, and the urgent 'meow' calls make him even more indifferent. A hole opened in his heart, and he fed the kittens one by one.
Of course, he also followed Grandma Cat's words, no more than two of the same kitten, never more.
The most annoying little black and white bird was pushed out of the circle several times by him gently pushing its belly.
The small ring standing on one side is obviously interested in Qing, who is hovering in the air and refusing to fall.
"I heard Tian Huo say you are a talking ninja bird?"
"My name is Xiaohuan, what's your name?"
"Want some cat food? Let me find it for you?"
"..."
She kept asking, her eyes full of curiosity, even though Qing showed an arrogant and disgusted look.
Of course, Yi Mang would occasionally glance at Huang, who was quietly feeding kittens. After all, she was in an empty area and rarely had contact with outsiders, and there were even fewer people of her own age.
Um.
Especially those of the same age who have good looks online.
There was a blush on her cheeks.
