Chapter 313 Sneaking out of the Village
Chapter 313 Sneaking out of the Village
wow-
In the crystal clear stream, the water is gurgling, and the sparkling water surface reflects the sunlight, as if countless diamonds are inlaid in it.
Hoshino Makoto grinned brightly, and that smile seemed to be brighter than the sun. He followed Naruto and the others to play barefoot in the water and catch fish.
"Xiao Cheng! Take it!" Naruto's voice suddenly rang out, and then he lifted up his white and tender feet suddenly, causing a large splash of water that splashed onto Hoshino Makoto's head.
Makoto Hoshino was caught off guard by the sudden attack and instantly turned into a wet drowned rat.
He blinked, and water drops slid down his eyelashes and dripped onto the water. He said to Naruto: "Naruto, you are so cunning!"
Then, he fought back without giving in. For a moment, the tranquility of the stream was completely broken, and crystal clear water droplets splashed all around, like strings of pearls falling.
Sasuke, Shikamaru and Choji were also "accidentally injured" and their clothes and hair were all wet.
Sasuke's eyelids twitched wildly, and his eyes burned with rage, staring at Naruto fiercely. The next second, he joined the water battle.
Shikamaru sighed helplessly, muttering, "Really? Mom will definitely nag me again when I get back."
Having said that, he was not angry, he just felt it was troublesome.
He didn't care about his wet appearance at all, and tightly guarded the snacks in his arms, as if those were his most precious treasures.
While they were having fun, somewhere in a corner by the stream, Feng Xingye was looking at them with a smile on his face.
"Children should be carefree. What's wrong with sighing all day long?"
His gaze lingered on several people and finally landed on Hoshino Makoto.
The tender and clear voice of a child echoes in the woods like beautiful notes, as if playing a gorgeous piece of music. All the worries in my heart disappear at this moment.
At this moment, the smile on Hoshino Makoto's face was clean and pure, without any impurities.
Seeing this, a smile appeared on Xingye Feng's lips and tenderness appeared in his eyes.
After a while, the shadows of the trees were gradually lengthened by the sunlight, and the sun hanging overhead slowly tilted towards the west. The sunlight was no longer bright, but was tinged with a blush, as if it was shy.
The little ones played like crazy for several hours, and even though they were full of energy, they were drained and lay on the ground in a crooked state.
The breeze gently blows through the treetops, making a rustling sound, as if whispering to the earth.
The gentle autumn breeze touched everyone's cheeks, and the comfortable force made them smile with enjoyment.
At this moment, Naruto, who had recovered from his shock, suggested, "I heard there are a lot of fun things to do outside the capital, do you want to go?"
The rational Shikamaru decisively refused and shook his head, saying, "Forget it. It is against the rules for a ninja to leave the village without permission. If caught, you will be beaten with a stick."
As soon as he finished speaking, Naruto retorted: "But we are not ninjas, not even in the reserve force, so this rule does not apply to us."
"Do you like staying in the same place all the time? My dad told me there are many new things out there." His eyes flashed with desire for the unknown world.
Naruto's words touched everyone's heart. They were born in Konoha and had never traveled far.
Everything outside is strange and new to them.
However, despite his excitement, Shikamaru still hesitated for a moment, then shook his head firmly and said, "No, don't forget, Makoto is a student of the Ninja School."
His tone was serious and earnest as he went on to explain.
"He's a reserve. If he gets caught, we might be fine, but he'll be in trouble."
As they got along, they also learned some things about Hoshino Makoto, including his schooling.
"Oh... forget it." Hearing Shikamaru's words, Naruto nodded with some disappointment, and his originally excited mood instantly dropped.
But the next moment, Hoshino Makoto smiled and said, "Actually, I also want to go out and take a look. After all, I have never seen it."
Hearing this, Shikamaru advised: "Makoto, don't go along with Naruto. He gets into trouble every day, and every time it's Uncle Minato who comes to apologize."
As soon as the words fell, Naruto immediately refuted and said unconvinced.
"Shikamaru, who said I always get into trouble? Not today."
Shikamaru rolled his eyes at him and said unhappily, "So what are you doing now?"
Looking at Naruto's aggrieved expression, Hoshino Makoto couldn't help but hold back his laughter and persuade him: "Okay, Naruto, let's talk about going out."
Seeing that Hoshino Makoto insisted, Shikamaru knew that he couldn't persuade him, so he had to grab his hair helplessly.
"You guys never listen to nice words, and always try to drag me into getting into trouble."
The meaning of the words was very clear. He said he would not go, but his body was very honest.
After dealing with the most difficult Shikamaru, dealing with the remaining two will be very easy.
The Ino-Shika-Chou clan has always been led by deer, so naturally, Choji would obey Shikamaru's words.
Sasuke was persuaded by Naruto. The method was very simple. He just used provocation, but Sasuke's competitive nature made him unbearable.
In this way, the group of five began their plan to leave the village and headed straight for the village entrance.
After hearing the plans of several people, Xingye Feng, who had been hiding, could not help but rubbed his eyebrows and shook his head.
"None of these kids are easy to take care of. They are actually plotting to leave the village. It's simply lawless."
As he said this, he followed behind him. He felt that something would definitely go wrong on this trip.
Perhaps it was God's blessing, as these days happened to be the school registration days, and a patrol team was temporarily dispatched to maintain public order, so the patrol intensity at the gate was reduced a lot at this moment.
With Shikamaru's extraordinary wisdom, he actually sneaked out of the village.
After sneaking away far away, everyone felt relieved and ran around freely outside like birds out of a cage.
"Wow, it finally came out." Naruto called out curiously, turning his little head and looking around.
Seeing this, Shikamaru stepped forward and said, "Even though you're out, don't go too far away, or you might get lost and unable to return."
After that, the others nodded. After all, they didn't want to be unable to go back.
"Okay, let's just take a look around, but remember not to run too far." Shikamaru repeated again with a serious look.
After giving the instructions, everyone dived into the dense forest, with Xingye Feng following behind them at a distance.
As you step into the forest, the sound of insects lingers in your ears. The deeper you go, the weaker the light becomes, and the dense leaves block out the sunlight.
"Shikamaru...Shikamaru, why do I feel like it's getting quieter and quieter around me?" Naruto said, shrinking his neck and looking around nervously.
Upon hearing this, Sasuke immediately mocked, "Idiot, you are so timid."
After he finished speaking, Naruto's face suddenly turned red. Perhaps it was because of his competitive spirit, Naruto gritted his teeth and walked to the front of the line.
"Who is afraid? I am not afraid. Just follow me."
Naruto bravely stepped forward, but his nervous eyes remained and his trembling legs betrayed his inner cowardice.
