Nineteen Town was a village under Wood leaf. It wasn't far from Wood leaf village. Nangong Zhe arrived in half a day on foot.
On the way, Nangong Zhe also encountered a few robbers who didn't know their place. He took care of them all with his sword.
When he arrived at Nineteen Town, it was noon. It was time for the residents to have lunch.
This should be the busiest time, but Nineteen Town looked very desolate. There were no signs of people.
The doors of the shops were basically closed. The doors of the ordinary residents' houses were also closed.
Nangong Zhe knew that this might have something to do with the Lion Mountain bandits. He didn't think too much about it. He went straight to the Nineteen Town's administrative center. He was going to meet the management of Nineteen Town to understand the specific situation.
At the entrance of the administrative center, Nangong Zhe heard bursts of children crying and women begging for mercy.
"It seems that the situation isn't as good as I thought …"
He slowly reached his hand behind his back and pulled out the black sword.
With the strength of his ankle, Nangong Zhe jumped onto a relatively tall tree in the courtyard of the administrative center.
He saw the situation inside the administrative center from the tree.
Children were tied up with their hands and feet forced to one corner of the room. They were crying.
A few women in ragged clothes were kneeling on the ground in the middle of the hall. They didn't care about their clothes and begged.
A few strong men walked toward the women with a murderous aura. They were shouting something in their mouths.
In the end, the women seemed to have given up resisting. Their bodies went soft and collapsed on the ground. There were still tears in the corners of their eyes.
A few strong men walked toward the women with obscene smiles. They took off their clothes as they walked.
Seeing such a scene, Nangong Zhe naturally guessed what had happened.
First, he still had to save the hostages.
Nangong Zhe fiercely hit the tree trunk. His whole body shot toward the window like an arrow.
Accompanied by the sound of glass breaking, Nangong Zhe landed on the ground. He stood right between the strong men and the women.
"Ninja! Ninja! The Wood leaf ninjas are here. "
The leader exclaimed as he pointed at the forehead protector around Nangong Zhe's neck.
The other big men were also a little flustered, but when they saw that Nangong Zhe was very young, they slowly calmed down. He raised his weapon and rushed towards Nangong Zhe.
"You're just a kid. Watch us take care of you!"
The leader slashed his saber at Nangong Zhe.
Nangong Zhe raised his left arm and used his gauntlet to knock the man's blade askew. His black sword followed up with a series of stabs.
In the blink of an eye, the leader's arms and legs were crippled. He wailed and struggled on the ground.
Without waiting for the other men to react, Nangong Zhe rushed forward and left a sword mark on their throats, causing them to bleed.
"All of you … deserve to die."
Nangong Zhe's expression was extremely fierce. He felt a sharp pain in his head, as if something had been stimulated and was about to rush out.
Speaking of which, all of this happened in just a few seconds. By the time the stunned women reacted, Nangong Zhe had already untied the rope that bound the children.
Seeing that the women had regained their senses, Nangong Zhe walked over with his black sword.
The black sword that was still dripping with blood seemed to have frightened the women. Nan Gongzhe swung the black sword to get rid of the blood, and then sheathed the black sword.
"Alright, it's okay. I'm Nangong Zhe, Wood leaf Chunin. Can you tell me what happened here? "
Nangong Zhe's question was like an explosive. The women immediately hugged each other and started crying.
After a long time, an older woman finally calmed down and walked towards Nangong Zhe.
"I'm sorry, ninja sama. We lost our composure … "
"It's okay. After I came here, I understood that something bad must have happened here. It's understandable that you have some ups and downs. "
"Ninja sama, you must have seen the bandit suppression mission issued by our town three days ago. That's why you came to Nineteenth Town, right?"
"Yes, this mission was indeed issued in the Ninja Hall three days ago."
"This town was captured by the bandits of Lion Mountain two days ago … They also kidnapped all the people in the town to Lion Mountain. I don't know what they want to do."
The woman wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and said sadly.
"Every town has its own self-defense force. Although they are civilians, they shouldn't have fallen so quickly … Could it be …"
Nangong Zhe suddenly had an unusual idea in his mind.
"Lion Mountain is not just an ordinary bandit. There are ninjas in it."
The woman then answered Nangong Zhe's doubts.
Ninjas! Ordinary self-defense forces can't stop them.
Nangong Zhe turned his head and looked at the muscular leader who had his tendons cut by him. He pulled out his black sword and pointed it at the muscular man.
"Tell me … What's going on …"
Nangong Zhe wanted to keep the muscular man as a mouthpiece. It seemed that everything that happened in Lion Mountain had to be extracted from this muscular man's mouth.
"Please … Ninja sama … Don't kill me."
The muscular man wailed.
"That depends on the value of your contribution."
Nangong Zhe looked at the brawny man with an emotionless expression on his face. It was this expression that provoked the muscular man even more.
"Yes … Ninja sama. Our village did have a wandering ninja two days ago. That ninja helped us kill the town manager and several important leaders of the self-defense forces. Then we took advantage of the chaos to capture the town … Please don't kill me. I've told you everything I know. "
Nangong Zhe pushed the black sword in his hand, and the black sword immediately went through the man's head.
"How can you not die?"
This sentence seemed to be asking the muscular man, but it also seemed to be asking himself.
He looked back at the older woman.
"What about you? How did you survive until now when the town was captured? "
"We took the children to the shelter in the town under the cover of the self-defense forces. We were just caught and brought here."
"You've suffered a lot."
Then, Nangong Zhe took off his backpack. He took out the dry food and water inside and handed it to the woman.
"You must have been scared for a long time. You and the children can share the dry food and water first. Several bandits blocking the way from Wood Leaf to here have been cleaned up when I came here. If you want, you can go to Wood Leaf to seek shelter first. "
"Thank you, Ninja sama."
"It's nothing. I'll take you out of Nineteen Towns first, and then I'll go to Lion Mountain to investigate. I'll eliminate the bandits as soon as possible and release the kidnapped people so that you can go home smoothly."
The women went to Nangong Zhe and thanked him. Then, they quickly ran to their children and comforted them.
After a while, the women left Nineteen Towns with the children accompanied by Nangong Zhe and walked in the direction of Wood Leaf.
Nangong Zhe saw that the women and children were not in danger for the time being, then turned and ran in the direction of Lion Mountain.
