Chapter 34 The Scorched Town
Leaving the small town, Hyuga Dongfang set off again, heading deep into the hinterland of the country of Taki. He lived and slept in the open, and he was practicing while advancing, using every bit of time very efficiently.
There are many waterfalls and rivers in the country of Taki, and there is a lot of rainfall, which provides a very special environment here. The forest coverage rate is very high, and there are various beasts lurking inside, which increases the difficulty of Higashi's journey to the east.
However, these are not too big problems for him. The only problem is that it is difficult to find a small town to stop, which is really far worse than the Land of Fire.
After several days of running, he finally saw a small town, but looking from a high place, he found that this town was a bit unusual, because some smoke rose from it.
It stands to reason that now is not the meal time, the lunch time is not here, and the dinner is far away, how can there be smoke from the fire?
With this question in mind, he headed towards the town, and the moment he stepped into the town, he finally knew what was going on with the smoke.
Here, it is actually a piece of wasteland!
Walking on the streets of the small town, there are some messy scenes everywhere, the doors and walls of each house are in dire condition, dry wind blows everywhere, and the air is filled with a pungent smell, which makes people sick.
Hyuga Dongfang held his nose and walked forward, and found some bones, they were lying on the path, only a little bit of meat wrapped, as if they had been eaten by something.
"What happened to this town..."
He frowned deeply, it was the first time he saw such a scene, a whole town was destroyed.
The town was unusually quiet. When Higashi was walking towards the east, he could even hear the sound of his own heartbeat. The place was completely dead, as if everything had gone to hell.
Then, he saw some footprints on the ground, and his eyes were wide open. If he read it correctly, they were the footprints of primitive people. It is impossible for ordinary people to have such big feet.
Did primitive people destroy this place?
A cloud of suspicion was formed in Hinata Dongfang's heart, lingering in his thoughts, which could not be erased.
If it was in the Land of Fire, Hokage would be furious if such a big thing happened, and then send many ninjas to search for the truth, behead the murderer, and comfort the dead.
However, the country of Taki is a small country, and many parts of its land are covered with forests. Some small towns on the edge are far apart, and the news is very closed, and it is impossible to know what happened in a short time.
For example, the small town in front of me was destroyed badly, but it is estimated that other people in the country of Taki still don't know the situation.
Suddenly, Hyuga Dongfang saw traces of being excavated on the ground, he saw some broken vegetable leaves thrown there, and some eloquent ones.
Are there any survivors here?
This idea suddenly came to his mind, and he searched along a path to see if he could find traces of living people.
Along the way, he saw some corpses. They were relatively complete, but they were already exhausted. They were probably starved to death. Although the fires did not destroy everything, more than [-]% of the buildings in the entire town were buried in the scorched earth.
He searched many houses, and he could see no one's shadow with just one glance. Through observation with supercilious eyes, he didn't have to go in, he only needed to glance at the door to know the specific situation inside.
This is the result of his cultivation. He didn't have such ability before. The more he awakened the ability of Baiyan, the more he felt a sense of pride. His field of vision almost reached 360 degrees, and he was only a little short of reaching the kind of complete blindness. Degree.
"Da da"
Suddenly, he heard some footsteps, and without turning his head, he could see a guy rushing towards him with a stick, his body tilted to the side, and the guy hit empty with one blow.
"Damn it, I'm going to kill you." The man looked like he was crazy, he didn't expect that he missed all his sneak attacks, and rushed towards him viciously.
However, as a ninja, Hinata Dongfang was much faster and more responsive than this person. The opponent hit him several times in a row, but all of them failed.
Finally, Hyuga Dongfang snatched the stick away, threw it aside, and said, "Do we have any grudges?"
The man raised his head, his eyes were red, like a beast without reason, he stared at Rixiang Dongfang, and said: "Now there is nothing to eat, I can only live if I kill you."
"Is there no room for negotiation at all? We are all human, so there is nothing we can't get through, right?" Hyuga Dongfang frowned, feeling that this guy was very unreasonable.
The man bared his teeth and said, "The beasts in the mountains and forests can't beat them. All the food in the town has been eaten up. The bones of other people are already stinking. If you eat them, you will die. Now that you are a foreigner like you, I don't want to eat you." What can I eat?"
Rito nodded to the east, he knew that the man with disheveled hair in front of him was just an ordinary person, he had no ability to fight with the beasts in the forest, besides looking weak and weak, he might be skinny from hunger.
"Here, eat some." Then, Hyuga Dongfang took out a piece of jerky from his rucksack and threw it over.
The lunatic was taken aback, but he still caught the jerky, and immediately started to eat it, disregarding his appearance at all. The way he ate was really ridiculous, like a wild beast.
However, as he ate and ate, the madman laughed, and finally burst into tears, with tears streaming down his face.
"What's wrong with you?" Hyuga Dongfang wondered, is the other party really crazy?
"Are you Ninja-sama? I beg you to do me a favor. If you don't help me, I won't get up." The madman suddenly knelt down and kowtowed to the east several times.
Ri Xiangdong hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't threaten me in this way. If I can do what you ask, I will agree. But if I can't, it's useless even if you die before me."
The madman swallowed the jerky and stared at him blankly: "You help me save a person, she is in Wulong Mountain to the west, there are a few monsters entrenched there, this town was destroyed by them."
"How important is that person to you?"
"If she dies, I don't want to live anymore. My only purpose of living is to save her."
"Why did the monster grab her?"
"Because she's beautiful, they want to play with her and eat her slowly."
……
Knowing the whole story, Hyuga Dongfang finally nodded and agreed to the crazy man's request, and decided to save that person, but he didn't know if he could succeed, because the girl had been taken away for several days and might be eaten .
"Master Ninja, I want to go with you." Jian Ri Xiangdong wanted to leave, and the madman chased after him.
Higashiga glanced at the mountain to the west, then at the ruins of the town in front of him, and said, "You'd better not follow me, otherwise I'll save her, and if you die again, what's the use of me saving her?"
The implication is that you cannot die, if you die, everything I do will be meaningless.
The madman understood his meaning, nodded vigorously, and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely survive, and wait for you to bring her to me."
Next, Hyuga Dongfang threw him another piece of dried meat, and then headed to Wulong Mountain in the west.
As soon as he set foot on the boundary of Wulong Mountain, he found that there were many footprints of primitive people's activities here, a large number of trees had been pushed down, and some scorched marks could be seen everywhere.
In the depths of Wulong Mountain, a few primitive people were drinking and eating meat. They made harsh noises and regarded this place as their own home.
Not far from them, a girl was tied to a tree. She had her head bowed and passed out.
In the jungle, a pair of eyes saw the bound girl through layers of leaves, and their eyes turned cold.
