Chapter 123 Locking Front Village Mission

At the gate of Konoha, Kawazo and Kakashi were panting and supporting their knees.

Although the Uchiha of the Konoha Guard were not impressed with the Twins of Konoha, they had no reason to stop them due to the mission scroll.

"Hey Kakashi, come take a look at the mission scroll!"

Kawazo put his arm around Kakashi's shoulders. Although they were the same age, Kawazo was taller than Kakashi.

Kakashi was speechlessly embraced by Kawazo and looked at the information on the mission scroll.

"Huh? Suoqian Village... I've never heard of it..."

He made a puzzled sound.

"Of course, this village is quite secretive, and you rarely leave the village, so you definitely haven't heard of it~"

Chuan Zang patted Kakashi and put away the mission scroll.

"Ah? Chuan Zang, have you heard of it?"

Kakashi looked at Kawazo suspiciously. They went to school and did missions together. He rarely left the village, so Kawazo should be the same as him.

"No."

Chuan Zang said confidently.

Kakashi immediately glared at him.

"But doesn't the scroll give us the general direction? We just need to go in a straight line towards the southeast!"

Chuan Zang laughed and immediately ran in the opposite direction of the village entrance, as if he was afraid of being caught.

Kakashi had no choice but to let Kawanzo run away on his own, so he could only keep up with Kawanzo's pace.

It took the two of them two days to cross the Land of Fire, but because they ran in a hurry, they didn't prepare much food and had to stop temporarily.

"Kakashi!"

Chuan Zang took out his simple, broken fishing rod from somewhere.

"Trust me again!"

There was confidence in Kawazo's eyes, but Kakashi turned and left.

Rather than believing that he could catch fish in Sichuan and Tibet, it would be better for him to hunt some wild animals in the woods.

"This time, I won't hide my strength anymore."

Looking at Kakashi's receding back, Kawazo immediately sat down by the river.

He put on the bait and swung the rod in one go. If it weren't for the fact that his insect body had a great deterrent effect on ordinary animals, Chuan Zang would have wanted to summon his insect body and hang it on the fishhook.

Given the plumpness of the insect's body, it must be quite attractive to fish.

Two hours later, Kakashi came back dragging a wild boar that was bigger than him.

"How's Sichuan and Tibet? Did you gain anything?"

Although Kakashi didn't have much confidence, he still asked the question as usual.

Sichuan-Tibet is like a rigid stone, turning its neck intermittently.

"Um... Kakashi, how did you get back so quickly? Give me two more hours, I'm sure I can catch it!"

Kakashi nodded in understanding, then threw the wild boar aside and prepared to start a fire.

Waiting for fish to be caught in Sichuan and Tibet? People have starved to death eight times.

“Being underestimated?”

Chuan Zang grinned. It is said that a fisherman will never go empty-handed, but he seemed to be under some kind of curse and could never catch any fish.

No, it’s too discouraging that a little Kakashi could look down on him. While Kakashi was making a fire, Chuanzo decided to wait a little longer.

......

“Ah, it smells so good~”

Half an hour later, Chuan Zang's fishing rod was nowhere to be found, and he and Kakashi were sitting by the fire, eating wild boar meat.

"Kakashi, your cooking skills are still so great! Hahahaha!"

Kakashi gnawed on the wild boar meat in silence, and he also took off the mask that he had not taken off in his later years, which was exactly the same as the one Hatake Sakumo wore when he was a child.

However, Sakumo was more intelligent when he was a child, while Kakashi looked haggard and worn out, mainly because his dead fish eyes were too distracting.

Compared with domestic pork, wild boar meat is more chewy, but has a stronger fishy smell. After being roasted over a fire, it can be a good outdoor meal.

The two of them only ate one wild boar leg together. Compared with those big eaters, their appetite was just average.

"Kakashi, I'll be on duty for the first half of the night~"

"okay."

Kakashi didn't give in. The first half of the night was actually quite difficult to endure, but after a little rest in the second half, it was actually easier to endure.

Silent all night.

"Hey, Chuan Zang, get up and get going."

In the morning, Kakashi kicked Chuan Zang's butt twice. Chuan Zang probably had been with Mr. Gu Zang for too long. He had to crawl to sleep in a big letter position, which was neither cautious nor elegant.

"Ah...ah? What time is it?"

Chuan Zang wiped the saliva left by sleeping on his stomach. Although it was very convenient for human use, it was really difficult for him to change the habit of sleeping on his stomach for so many years.

The two men cut off a small portion of the wild boar meat, roasted it, and carried it with them. They buried the traces hastily and continued on their way.

Following the route indicated on the mission scroll, the two arrived at a hillside.

There are many large rocks standing among the lush weeds on the hillside, which appear extremely abrupt and make the entire hillside look somewhat empty.

"Uh-huh......"

Just as the two were going up the mountain, they heard a sobbing sound, which sounded like a young child.

Kawazo immediately glanced at Kakashi.

Sure enough, Kakashi seemed unable to walk and leaned towards the direction of the crying.

"Kakashi."

Kawazo suddenly called out to Kakashi.

"Hmm? Chuan Zang, there's a child crying over there, let's go check it out."

Kakashi came back to his senses and looked at Kawazo who was standing there in confusion, not knowing what he was going to say.

"Where are these kids from in this remote place, Kakashi? And you're a kid yourself!"

Sichuan and Tibet had no place to complain. The sudden cry of a child on this desolate mountain was just like the Red Boy hanging himself on the tree and shouting "Good brother, save me". It was not normal no matter how you looked at it!

"But..."

Kakashi hesitated for a moment. He had just confirmed that he was not under the illusion, which meant that there really was a child crying.

"Forget it, let's go and take a look."

Chuan Zang pulled Kakashi and walked towards the other side of the hillside. Kakashi was confused again. Didn’t you say you didn’t want to go?

The two walked up along the side and saw a little girl standing in the middle of a pile of rocks, wiping her tears.

A plain red short-sleeved shirt, white trousers, and a pair of old-fashioned sleeves. Even with such a bad combination, it was difficult to hide the little girl's tearful face.

The teardrop mole under the right corner of her eye directly brings her looks to a level that can be described as beautiful.

"Where...where are you from?"

Chuan Zang slapped his face and said, Kakashi is such a straight man, how can he ask a girl like that!

The little girl stopped crying a little and looked up at the two people in front of her blankly.

One of them wore a Konoha forehead protector on his head, his short white hair fluttered in the wind, and the mask covered his good looks, but he still looked very handsome.

The other one... had a crew cut and black eyes, and was wearing a vest, shorts, and... slippers. He was obviously not bad looking, but he was making an expression that was unbearable to look at.

"I...I don't know."

Kakashi's dead fish eyes moved.

Don't know where you came from? An orphan?

"So, do you have a name?"

"Ah...Ali."
