"Yes, I understand the general situation. In other words, after you safely escorted the goods to your destination, the merchant who handed over the goods to Kanayama looked like a ninja. After that, it was obvious that the two people behind him came to kill the three of you?”In the corridor of the hospital, Uchiha Kyo touched his chin and roughly explained the situation.
"Gold." Ye Yong nodded and said again.
"Gold? What do you mean?" Uchiha Mirror narrowed his eyes, and his gaze became a little profound.
"The goods are gold. On the way, we were seen." Ye Yong said with an unchanged expression.
Uchiha fell into deep thought.
Although Ye Yong's words were concise, the meaning behind them was naturally expressed in its entirety.
In other words, the so-called goods that Jianshan was escorting were gold, and after the three of them saw the gold, they were chased down. Then there must be something fishy going on.
Jianshan was just a small merchant with a powerful background. Even a chest of gold was unreasonable to him, let alone three carts of gold. Even if it really belonged to him, why would he come to Muye to issue the simplest mission?
Was he hiding something?
"I know. You did well this time, Ye Yong. I'll leave the rest to you. According to the characteristics of the two ninjas you mentioned, they're probably from the Rain Ninja Village. I'll go and investigate." Uchiha Kyo patted Ye Yong's shoulder and left the hospital. It seemed like he was going to start investigating.
After the Uchiha Mirror left, Ye Yong looked at his back and couldn't help but think of the long-haired man wearing a mask. He fell into a daze.
At this moment, Tsunete, who had heard the news, ran over with a worried expression.
"Blockhead, is it true that Kaori is injured? Wasn't it a simple escort mission? Why was he injured?”Okami went straight to the point.
"Being chased by ninjas." Ye Yong collected his thoughts and replied.
"Aiya, your words are always so simple. Forget it, where is Kaori now?”Okami said in a bad mood.
Ye Yong pointed at Uchiha Kaoru's ward.
Okami wanted to go in directly, but then he thought of something and stopped in his tracks. He looked back into Ye Yong's eyes and said,""Blockhead, are you alright?"
"Yes."
"Oh, that's good."
Opening the door of the ward, Uchiha Kaoru was lying down with steady breathing. It seemed that her injuries had been alleviated, but due to her young age, it would probably take some time for her to recover.
Okami carefully walked to the bed and sat down. Looking at Uchiha's delicate face, he couldn't help but feel sorry for her.
Uchiha Kaoru was her best playmate. Although she was arrogant, her feelings were sincere. When her friend was injured, she was naturally very angry and sad.
Strangely, the Inuzuka clan had come to observe Inuzuka Michi, but Uchiha Kaoru's parents were nowhere to be seen.
Ye Yong had nothing to do, so he walked closer to Uchiha Kaoru's ward.
He tilted his head and stood at the side without saying a word.
At this moment, Uchiha slowly opened her eyes. Seeing Tsunei's worried look, she couldn't help but smile and say,"
"You came to see me. Thank you."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Aren't we friends? Of course I have to come and see you.”Okami said unhappily.
"Hehe, I have to thank Lord Ye Yong this time. If it wasn't for Lord Ye Yong, Tong Jun and I probably wouldn't have been able to come back.”Uchiha Kaoru peeked at the expressionless Ye Yong and said with a slightly red face.
"What happened? Tell me and I'll avenge you!”When Okami heard this, he immediately said with a murderous expression.
Uchiha Kaoru hesitated for a moment before telling him the whole story.
However, during this period, she had omitted the fact that Ye Yong had used saving the two of them as a pretense. The reason why she and Inuzuka Tong had been injured was because they were not strong enough, and that was the truth.
It was also thanks to the Water Substitution Technique that Swirling Mito had given Ye Yong. Otherwise, Ye Yong might have been stabbed by the poisonous needle at the first moment, and his movements would have been hindered, and he would have died on the spot.
In addition, he was able to use the Water Substitute Technique in more than a month's time, all thanks to the Water Escape Manual and Ye Yong's talent.
"It's just that…It's just that…" Uchiha suddenly stuttered.
"But what?" Okami asked curiously.
"Yes ~ It's just that when Ye Yongjun bandaged my wound, my…My clothes…Ah!" Uchiha's face turned red as she lowered her voice and buried her head in the blanket, not daring to look at Ye Yong.
"Ah?" Okami raised his voice several decibels when he heard that. However, he suddenly thought of something and fell silent.
Ye Yong tilted his head, expressing his doubt.
............
A few days later, the results of Uchiha's investigation came out. Naturally, he was shocked. The matter of the small gold mine was exposed, and after following the clues, the spearhead was pointed at the extremely young leader of Rainninja Village, Hanzura!
It was rumored that Hanzang was very powerful. The Country of Rain was located between the Fire, Earth, and Wind Empires. Its geographical location was very bad, and it could be affected by the war between the three empires at any time.
Moreover, Jianshan had disappeared long ago, and more than half of the gold mine had been dug up. Hanzang would definitely get the benefits.
This matter was neither small nor big.
Although the three carts of gold were valuable, the person involved had disappeared, and there was no direct evidence to prove that it was Hanzang's doing. Moreover, the location of the incident was under the jurisdiction of a famous person in the Fire Country, so the loss wasn't Muye's.
In addition, the war was tense now. The second generation had died not long ago, and there was a conflict with Rain Ninja Village. How could these far-sighted upper echelons smash their own feet?
Therefore, after this matter was reported, there was gradually no more news. He only instructed his subordinates to be careful when they went on missions.
After that incident, the Uchiha Mirror would carefully select the missions that Ye Yong and the other two would take on, and would secretly follow those that they felt were dangerous.
Just like that, another year passed.
In the 17th year of the reign of Muye, the long-awaited war was once again triggered.
The fuse of this war was actually caused by the conflict between the Country of Rain and the Country of Wind!
