Chapter 127 Procrastination
"Tsk! You think I want to come? I just want to take turns taking care of you. Wait, I'll go tell them. They're still worried."
"No need, I'll go and talk to him myself. Don't worry, I'm fine. It's just excessive chakra consumption. It's not the first time."
"Then you better be careful." Seeing Shiro say this, Taiyi had no choice but to listen to him. After being teammates for such a long time, he also understood Shiro's stubborn temper.
"Don't worry." Shiro got up from the bed and asked, "How's the mission going? Has the ghost been sealed?"
"Well, after you fell asleep, the witch sealed the monster. Don't worry, the mission was successfully completed."
"Is that so? Then, how is the Miko-sama?"
"Don't worry, she's fine. Why are you so concerned about her?"
"It's nothing, there are just some things that bother me. I'm glad you're alright."
Taiyi didn't ask any more questions when he saw that Shilang didn't want to talk about it. However, judging from the slightly raised corners of Shilang's mouth, this should be a good thing.
After walking a few steps, Shiro realized that he had forgotten to ask an important question and quickly stopped what he was doing.
"Taiyi, how many days have I been asleep? What about the people from other ninja villages? Have they left?"
"Ha, I thought you wouldn't ask. Don't worry, it's only been a day. People from other ninja villages are here too. The miko said that we'll all thank us together after you recover from your injuries."
"At the grand ceremony." Taiyi emphasized at the end.
"Grand ceremony? What's it for?"
"It's said that this is their tradition. Every time they seal a monster, they hold this ceremony. So, this time they are also planning to formally thank us at the ceremony."
"Shiro, I have to say, we owe them a big favor this time."
"Ah, I owe you a lot."
The reason why Silang and the others owed him a big favor was mainly because of Silang's performance this time.
In this mission, anyone with a discerning eye can see that as long as Silang continues to grow smoothly, his future achievements will definitely not be low, and now is the best opportunity to assassinate Silang.
Therefore, the witch specially prepared this grand ceremony in order to give Shiro and others the opportunity to pass on the message and time for reinforcements to arrive.
As for why it was specially organized.
Although they had held a grand ceremony after sealing the monsters, it was not actually held to celebrate the sealing of the monsters. After all, the success of sealing the monsters was achieved by sacrificing the life of the witch, so there was nothing to be happy about.
Their ceremony is actually held to celebrate the succession of the new witch, who is the new leader of the country.
And now, the current miko is not dead yet, and her daughter is not qualified to be the new king, so this is really held specially for Shiro and others.
Although they didn't know whether there would be any difficulties in holding this ceremony, even if there were no difficulties, the intention was always there, and Shilang and the others could not ignore it.
After a while, Shiro and the others arrived at the hall. Almost everyone was there, but they were all resting and not training. After all, they had just finished a battle and needed to relax properly.
"Shiro, why don't you take a break?"
"It's okay, Captain, I'm fine. It's just excessive chakra consumption. It's not the first time."
"As long as you know your limits, there won't be any serious side effects from this secret technique, right?"
"No, it's just that my chakra meridians are damaged. I need to recuperate for a while."
"As long as everyone is alright, it's not a big deal. Those few missions won't hurt either."
"Here, Brother Shiro." Xiaoguang handed Shiro a cup of tea and asked worriedly, "Brother Shiro, are you really okay? That kind of high-intensity attack, and you used it twice."
"Haha, don't worry, it's okay, it's just a little overloaded. Remember what the most important ninja ability I taught you is?"
"Well, remember, follow your heart, but what does this have to do with my problem?"
"Well, you have a good memory, but I forgot to explain the other meaning of this sentence to you last time."
"Another, does it have any other meaning?"
"Of course."
Hearing this, everyone looked over curiously. They also wanted to know what the other meaning was.
"Ahem, remember this, this is my secret! Become stronger silently and survive to the end!"
"., what else?" Xiaoguang waited for a while, but didn't hear any follow-up, so he asked curiously.
“That’s it, this is the essence!”
“.”
"Hey, hey, hey, what's with that expression on your face! Let me tell you, this sentence has contributed greatly to my current success!" Shiro said angrily when he saw Xiaoguang's disgusted look.
"Hahaha!"
When everyone saw Silang's frustrated look, they couldn't help but laugh. The serious Silang from yesterday had left a deep impression on them.
And now facing a different Shiro, they felt more at home.
Seeing this scene, although Shiro still looked furious on the surface, he was very happy in his heart. Of course, he couldn't feel it now.
Silang was not pretending to be stupid just to make them happy, but he did it naturally. This was a habit Silang had in his previous life and it was deeply engraved in his bones.
Sometimes he himself cannot find it, of course, not always, sometimes he is really stupid.
After a burst of laughter, Nakamura gestured for them to quiet down.
After they had completely quieted down, Nakamura said, "Shiro, you may have to pretend to be sick for another day or two. Their ceremony has been prepared in advance. Now as soon as you recover, the ceremony can begin immediately."
"So, you will need to stay asleep for a while longer. We have already informed the village of the situation, and they replied that Lord Sakumo is on his way."
"The teacher is coming?"
"Well, so you need to recuperate for a while and wait for Master Sakumo's arrival."
"Okay, I see. Is there anything else I should pay attention to?"
"No, you just need to rest well and stay out of sight. But for the sake of caution, Taiyi and the others should not go out during this period, so as not to reveal your identity."
"We are in the Land of Ghosts, and we are still on a mission. Do they dare to take action?" Xiaoguang asked with a frown.
"Of course not openly, but other villages have departments similar to the Anbu, and they also have a lot of 'renegade ninja'."
Xiaoguang and the others just have little experience and are not really naive. Therefore, after listening to Nakamura, they knew what the so-called "rebel ninja" was without Nakamura's explanation.
"Well, that's all. Let's all take a rest."
"yes."
At this time, people from other villages were also discussing this matter, but they didn't know that Shuomao was on the way, otherwise, they would not be so calm.
