Konoha's Strongest Brother

Chapter 35 Test
The task this time is not too complicated. A rich man came from the border of Fire Nation and brought his whole family to Konoha to watch the individual battle of Chunin Exam.However, he was afraid that there would be gangsters threatening him on the road, so he entrusted someone to issue an escort mission in Konoha, and Konoha Ninja would complicate all his safety issues in the territory, and he needed to pay for it.

I hurried all the way for three or two days, and set off towards the agreed place, but there was a ninja dog reporting in the middle, saying that the rich man couldn't wait to leave early, and hoped to have a round with Thousand Hands Orange Water and Duan Ren on the way .

I don't know why he made such a hasty decision. It is said that there are still more than 20 days for the individual battle of the Chunin exam, and the journey is more than enough. In the end, with the help of the tracking technique, Qianshou Orange Water still found the rich man who left in a hurry.

Tracking is not a fighting type of ninjutsu, but it is extremely useful for certain events, and this is also part of the course taught by Thousand Hands Orange Water.

The meeting with the rich man was handled by Qianshou Chengshui alone. The rich man expressed a very excited welcome to the arrival of Konoha Ninja, and specially prepared a luxurious carriage for them, just behind the owner's carriage in the center , as far as the luxury of the carriage is concerned, it should be higher than the carriage of the main family.

They don't need to do the chores on the road, and there is a hired civilian mercenary with the rich man, holding a variety of swords, ordinary bandits have to weigh it if they want to rob this team.

Obviously, Thousand Hands Orange Water and Duan Ren are specially used to deal with possible ninja surprise attacks.

Without any other indications, Qianshou Chengshui and Fu Hao exchanged a few words politely, took the broken blade and got into the carriage, stopped and stopped along the way, but saw that the curtain of the owner's carriage was always closed, and no one could be seen. When people come out, even at meal time, they are sent up by special servants, as if the master's family does not want to expose any situation of his family.

Duan Ren looked around the camp during lunch time, and saw a child curiously raised the curtain and glanced at him, but the curtain was pulled down quickly after this glance, and there was nothing else to gain.

For some reason, this team always gives Duan Ren a strange feeling.

The same strange feeling came from the rich man, who wanted to cover up but showed a little cautious look on his face, which Duan Ren keenly caught.

Duan Ren thinks that he is a very good actor, whether it is the daily conversation or the appearance of the words, he is deliberately concealing that he is very relaxed, and he is telling that this trip to Konoha to watch the Chunin exam is just a one-off Interesting trip... It's just that this kind of cover-up can deceive others, but it can't deceive ninjas.

Duan Ren put himself in the situation and thought about it. He felt a little strange about the prudence of the rich man. After all, the war is over, and the famous Konoha Ninja with a good reputation in the industry has arrived. He is still very cautious, which is problematic.

Maybe it's a personal grudge.

The employer sometimes hides some information from Konoha. Although it does not appear often, it still exists. Duanren doesn't want to know the unspeakable secrets of others, but this approach is very dangerous. Occasionally, he has a short contact with the rich man during the meal at the camp. However, I asked around on the sidelines, but didn't get any results.

Thinking and analyzing, he couldn't figure it out, Duan Ren withdrew his attention, and with Qianshou Orange Water, nothing could be a problem.

……

……

After two days of long-distance travel, although the carriage is very luxurious, the bumps are uncomfortable. It took them two or three days to come here, but it will take more than ten days to return to Konoha from here. It is inevitable that there will be some suffering .

One day when the evening was approaching, Qianshou Orange Shui found Duan Ren, and told Duan Ren, "Get ready, someone will attack at night."

Generally speaking, ordinary battles don't require the two of them to fight, so Qianshou Orange Shui can say that, indicating that the night is a battle between ninjas.

Duan Ren nodded and prepared, but there was no surprise and doubt on his face that Qianshou Orange Shui wanted to see.

"Why don't you even ask me?"

Qianshou Chengshui looked at Duan Ren who was arranging the ninja bag in front of him, lowered his voice, and said as gently as possible: "I said someone is coming to attack, don't you ask where the news came from?"

"You are the captain of the team. According to the rules, I shouldn't question any of your decisions." Duan Ren looked at Qianshou Orange Water and said after a moment of silence: "If you want to know something I guessed, don't try to guide me around. Just ask directly."

Qianshou Chengshui glanced at him, with a bitter expression on his face, the meaning he wanted to express was very clear, why did it take so much effort to talk to you?
Duan Ren just packed everything up, looked at him, and he opened his mouth and asked: "What did you guess, tell me."

Duan Ren dipped his hands in a little water, and drew a simple map on the wooden board. He pointed to one of the places and said, "This is the place where we agreed to meet, and when we arrived, they had already set off to this place. Counting their footsteps these days, they have been walking for four or five days, if there is no problem, it is hard to imagine that they will be so impatient."

"Perhaps he was in a hurry to watch the Chunin exam." Qianshou Chengshui raised his head and said.

"Impossible, since they submitted the task to Konoha, how could they leave before Konoha Ninja arrives." Duan Ren categorically refuted this possibility, and continued: "They paid the money, so at the beginning His original intention was to seek protection, but he left before the protection arrived, which is completely inconsistent with his original intention."

Duan Ren's expression was relaxed, although he explained to Qianshou Orange Shui that there might be twists and turns in this mission, but with Qianshou Orange Shui there, he was guaranteed, and he was not afraid of things, so he was not too nervous.

"The only possibility is that there are enemies chasing and killing them, forcing them to move forward."

Duan Ren replied: "No one would be stupid enough to stay where they are and wait to die, and trust an unfamiliar ninja village, even though Konoha has a good reputation. And the cautious look on the rich man's face made me believe that There must be something else hidden."

"And you, this time, are going to test my ability to observe the environment, but please, make it a little more difficult, don't challenge my IQ."

Qianshou Chengshui hesitated to speak, and asked: "You... since when did you know this is a test?"

"I knew it from the beginning." Duan Ren raised his eyebrows slightly, and said mockingly: "Since Konoha characterized this mission as an A-level mission, I knew there was something wrong this time. A-level missions are not common, but they do exist, but this This time was different. This time the employer did not provide details of the mission. It seemed that it was just an ordinary escort mission, and his status was not considered noble. How could it be an A-level mission? I doubt that Konoha knew something inside. "
