Chapter 240 The Secret Proposal
Maeda said with a decadent look on his face: "You should have heard of that little guy's personality! That guy is completely crazy! I just said a few words and rushed up to me and fight for my life! You know, he had not officially started practicing the peacock magic at that time! In a hurry, I kicked him back. Unexpectedly, this guy was unyielding, so I kicked a few more..."
"Tsk! Maeda, you are really promising! You can't beat your wife, but you actually attack the child? That kid is a persistent Avenger, you are miserable now!" Another figure leaning against the corner of the wall teased frivolously.
"Don't forget that you have a share in that matter! I'm unlucky, you can't escape either!" Maeda couldn't help but threaten angrily when he heard the young man's sarcasm.
"So, are you sure I'm going to be able to fight with a teammate like you? I've said I can't work with you, but now I want to drag us into the water if there is a problem. If you offend that lucky guy, you will be punished at most! You and your wife's lives will be difficult to save! But maybe Lord Shin-Star Shadow will really like your wife, so you can't save your life? Hahaha... Humph!" Faced with Maeda's threat, the man leaned against the corner of the wall hugged his arms and continued to mock him with fearlessness.
Suddenly a handful of kunai flew out from the opposite side to the wall between his legs, interrupting his ridicule.
"Sato! Fuck your dog's mouth! You can also say my man? No matter how bastard he is, he is better than you who is not good at all! You must have a problem with your thing at such an old age! I don't know what you are nervous about, wouldn't it be more convenient if you lose it?"
"Hahaha..." The couple looked at the kunai under Sato's crotch and laughed out loudly.
Sato quickly stood up straight, took out his ninja instrument with a murderous look on his face and pointed at the couple opposite him and sneered: "Do you guys and men want to start a war?"
"Come on, I'm afraid you won't?"
There were several other figures in the room. Seeing that both sides were about to fight, some frowned, some sneered, and some looked at jokes indifferently, but they didn't come forward to stop them.
These three people have a bad temper and often have conflicts on weekdays, so no one wants to join in and make them slutty. What's more, there is an adult who suppresses them, and they don't think they can cause any major trouble.
Sure enough, seeing the three of them taking action again, the tall figure finally stopped him: "Stop it! Everyone is on the same boat. If anyone dares to make trouble, I will let him disappear in person!"
After looking at the three people who were still silently confronting each other, the tall figure said angrily: "Maeda, you don't have to threaten. Isn't the reason why everyone gathered here tonight just to wipe your butt?"
"Sir! You are reckless! You can lend a helping hand, and I am grateful! What you said just now is just an angry word. Please forgive me!" Maeda heard the dissatisfaction from the other party's words, and knew that what he said just now had violated everyone's taboo, so he immediately apologized to everyone with a smile. Then he took back his weapon and pulled his wife to sit there.
Seeing that he was still quite sensible, the tall figure nodded, exposing what had happened just now, then looked at Sato who was rolling his eyes and scolded: "And you Sato! Take care of your mouth! If you don't speak, no one will regard you as a mute! If this matter is really shaken off, with Lord Xingying's temper, no one here can escape! Do you think you can get rid of your relationship? We Xingnin are different ninjas from other villages! We don't even have the qualification to be a rebellious ninja!"
Sato replied unhappily: "Yes! Sir!" and then leaned back to the corner again.
The tall figure finally glanced at the other people in the room who didn't care about it, "Yeah! Let me hear it! The matter of our secretly withholding war pensions is big or small! If these orphans can't survive the hurdle or are disabled, then everything will be fine and no one cares about it.
But now a genius suddenly appeared and was taken as a disciple by Xingying. Everyone's attention was focused on him. Once the matter was exposed, the village would definitely investigate it thoroughly, and even magnify the situation infinitely!
At that time, you will not be able to finish the matter simply by revoking your post and fines. Maybe you will be detained in the underground cell of the temple!
I don't think you want to try that kind of taste, right?"
It turns out that the person sitting is the member of the department responsible for paying pensions to the war orphans, and the tall figure is the main person in charge, Takahashi, Takahashi!
They saw that most of the war orphans were rejected by other people in the village due to the defeat of the Vortex Kingdom, and there was no care from the seniors behind them, so they had the wicked idea of war pension.
The rich war pensions can only maintain the survival of those orphans after they have been deducted. It is basically impossible to have enough medicine and nutrition to nourish the body and practice the peacock magic method.
The deducted pensions were divided up by those who were sitting.
Everyone present heard Takahashi mentioning the Temple Dungeon and his face turned pale and shivered unconsciously.
Since the holy object of Xingnin Village, "Star", has been worshipped in the temple for more than 200 years, the underground of the temple has been completely penetrated and assimilated by the radiation energy of "Star". At first, Xingnin thought this was a good thing, and maybe a new radiation source could be created.
However, after experiments, they found that the radiation energy in the underground soil has stronger erosion and is more difficult to control. The main reason is that the radiation energy accumulates and stagnates for a long time on the ground and becomes yin and turbid, solidified and dead. Although the energy is very thick, it requires more vitality to neutralize it.
However, the star king who practices the wonderful peacock method lacks the most is vitality, so the underground radiation energy is extremely poisonous to them and cannot be used at all.
So in the end, it can only be used as a cell. While punishing the prisoner, it is also hoped that the prisoner's vitality can be used to slowly neutralize this negative energy.
Unfortunately, it has not been successful after so many years. Instead, the cruel legend of the Temple Dungeon has been widely circulated, and most star ninjas regard it as hell.
After practicing the Peacock Magic Art to the highest level, the third generation of Star Shadow once tried to practice in the dungeon. He found that he could absorb the energy in it but could not be used to strengthen the body, and would have a negative impact on the spirit, so he stopped trying it briefly and did not continue.
Of course, no one was aware of these people present. They only knew that no one had ever been able to survive in the temple dungeon for a month, and they were extremely painful before they died, and they died tragically.
