Chapter 270: Gathering again, the destination is the Hidden Mist Village
"When do you plan to announce it to the ninja world?" Hoshino Kaede said, leaning on the windowsill, staring at the people along the street, as if the most beautiful scenery in the world was there.
"After everything is settled." Shuomao did not answer immediately, but thought seriously for a few seconds before speaking.
"Now is a time of turbulent waves, with undercurrents surging beneath the surface of the water."
As he spoke, Sakumo quickly opened the drawer under the table, took out a copy of the confidential documents from a pile, handed it to Hoshino Kaede, and said.
"Just an hour ago, the spies sent us information that the number of bandits near the border has increased sharply, and they are robbing caravans and civilians."
"In just a few days, the border has become a den of thieves."
Hearing Sakumo's angry words, Xingye Feng narrowed his eyes, his eyes flickering: "It seems that some people are still resisting stubbornly, unable to see the general trend, and determined to go all the way to the end."
"What are you going to do?"
Hearing this, Shuomao had a faint smile on his face, but his eyes revealed a cold light: "No matter who it is, they will pay the price in blood."
"I have asked people to increase the frequency of border patrols and speed up the negotiations."
As he spoke, he raised a finger and said, "One month. This is the last time I will give them. I don't have that much patience."
Seeing Sakumo's vigorous and resolute manner, Xingye Feng nodded with satisfaction: "This method is efficient and quick, and it is very suitable for the current situation."
He fully agreed with Shuomao's approach. In the current special period, he must not ruin his overall plan because of a momentary weakness.
After thinking for a while, Xingye Feng suggested: "No decision was made on the Hidden Mist Village at the previous meeting. I want to go and negotiate in person."
After he finished speaking, Sakumo raised his hands in agreement, and fearing that he would go back on his word, he immediately took out detailed information about the Hidden Mist Village.
"These were collected recently. Let's see if they are useful."
Xingye Feng flipped through the book and had a preliminary understanding of the Hidden Mist Village. He then closed it and said, "I'm going to prepare. This time I'll be more formal and go as a negotiating representative."
"Who do you want to take?" Shuomao accurately predicted his next sentence.
Xingye Feng raised his eyebrows and said, "Just take a few kids with you. Just treat it as a chance to see the scenery outside. It's boring to stay in the village all the time."
"Are you going on a trip?" Shuomao complained. They were clearly going there for negotiations, but when he said that, it felt like something was wrong.
Xingye Feng said with a smile: "Let's just travel, it's all the same. Anyway, the Hidden Mist Village has been beaten and is afraid now. The Land of Water is quite peaceful, so there's no need to worry about anything happening."
"Okay." Hearing this, Shuomao nodded to show that he understood, and then began to sign the formal documents.
The form should be acceptable, otherwise it would be too shabby.
After a while, a formal appointment letter came out. Xingye Feng picked it up and put it in his pocket without even looking at it.
Then he walked out the door and left.
Seeing this, Shuomao shook his head helplessly. His character was still as vigorous and decisive as ever, and he never wasted any time.
Walking on the side of the road, Xingye Feng touched his chin, thinking about who to bring with him. The number of people cannot be too many, but of course if there are too few, it will be too frivolous.
I was so absorbed in my thoughts that I didn't see the road clearly and bumped into a little man with a bang.
Xingye Feng was naturally unharmed and didn't even move. He looked down and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He stretched out his hand to pick up the little guy and looked at her with a smile.
"Hongdou, are you interested in going out of the village with me?"
Mitarashi Anko looked at Hoshino Kaede in confusion, with her eyebrows furrowed, which was very cute.
"Uncle Hoshino, please don't look like a weird uncle. It will scare the children to tears."
Hoshino Kaede: “…”
Do you want to listen to what you are saying? Aren't you a child yourself?
"Cough cough." Xingye Feng was choked by the little guy's words and coughed repeatedly, his eyes revealing embarrassment, and then he got to the point.
"I'm planning on going to Kirigakure, are you interested in going with me?"
Hongdou tilted her head in thought, biting her finger, and said, "The Hidden Mist Village, I heard... is by the sea, with abundant seafood and lots of delicious food."
At this point, Hongdou's eyes lit up and she agreed immediately.
"Wow! Ocean, here I come!"
Hoshino Feng looked at the emotional Hongdou and couldn't help covering his face. Did he find the wrong person? He could return the goods... No, should he return the person?
Unexpectedly, Hongdou seemed to be able to read minds. She pouted her pink lips and said, "Humph, Uncle Xingye, you can't go back on your promise, otherwise you won't grow taller."
Hearing this, the corner of Xingye Feng's mouth twitched. He touched his head unconsciously and estimated his current height.
"I...I understand. Go back and prepare. We will meet at the village entrance tomorrow morning."
Such vicious words forced Xingye Feng to swallow the bitter fruit silently.
After getting a positive answer, Hongdou skipped happily back home. The expectant look on her face showed how much importance she attached to this trip.
"Why is Zixiao's daughter so eccentric? She's not like him at all."
Hoshino Feng silently complained in his heart.
But now that things have come to this, I have no choice but to accept it.
After "successfully" finding the first one, Feng Xingye didn't dare to mess around with the remaining ones, so he went straight to find someone he was familiar with for easier management.
Early the next morning, at daybreak, Yutarai Zixiao and Hongdou were the first to arrive at the village entrance, constantly giving instructions.
That nervous and worried look made Hongdou feel helpless. Sometimes caring too much is not a good thing.
He sighed, and suddenly saw Xingye Feng out of the corner of his eye. He immediately waved and greeted him with a happy expression: That's great, I can finally get rid of the nagging.
Xingye Feng walked over here leisurely, looked at Hongdou with a leisurely expression, and said with a smile: "Hey, you think I'm your rescuer and waved at me from a distance."
Hongdou looked away guiltily and said stubbornly, "No way, you are seeing wrong, I am welcoming you."
After hearing this, Xingye Feng did not expose him. He smiled and nodded, then looked at Zixiao.
"You were so worried about your daughter that you even ran to the village gate to see her off."
Zixiao scratched his head and said, "Isn't this the first time to go out of the village? The child has no experience, so I communicated with her on the way."
Hongdou snorted when she heard that, and thought to herself, "Is that an exchange? You've been telling me about your experience since I woke up."
Hoshino Feng saw her little expression and a smile flashed across his face.
Just then, a burst of hurried footsteps sounded from behind Hoshino Feng. Hongdou happened to be facing him, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
As if her heart was pierced, she smiled like an infatuated boy: "What a cute little boy."
When Xingye Feng saw the person coming, he smiled and said, "Shisui, there is plenty of time. This time we are having a formal negotiation, which is different from the past."
The five-year-old Shisui has grown a lot taller, but is still cute. The baby fat on his face has become even rounder, making people want to rub it.
