Chapter 43 Loulan Destruction
The light rising from the heights of Loulan
Mixed emotions
The dragon vein that must be protected
The blade is shot up and looks up at the sky...
The inner courtyard is an abandoned tower with weeds and building debris everywhere.
Ryuuji and Yin came here and looked for the song.
After many twists and turns, the two of them came to the door of a room where the floor collapsed and the roof was missing a large hole.
The sun was cast from the hole in the roof and shone on the ground... a girl kneeling on a huge rock.
She held her hands in her chest and looked up at the sky and sang, with loneliness and helplessness in her voice.
Ryuu Er did not disturb the girl, but stood quietly on the side waiting, while Yin waited beside the master.
After a while, the singing stopped.
The girl stood up from the huge rock, turned slowly, and looked directly at the boy.
"This song was taught to me when I was a child by my mother."
Long Er did not interrupt and quietly waited for the following.
"My mother told me that as the princess and queens of Loulan, she has the responsibility to protect the people of Loulan."
Speaking of this, the girl couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Although my mother told me that, how can I protect them as a weak woman?
Whenever I show this emotion, my mother will comfort me and say: If you feel the difficulty, just sing this song."
Long Er still didn't say anything and looked silently.
Seeing this, the girl gave in and laughed, "I know what my mother meant. She wanted me to feel the responsibility of being the Queen of Loulan from this song. She said: Once a person has responsibility, he will be strong.
But! I can’t even understand what happened, so how can I be strong?
Every time I sing, I only feel my mother leaving me, leaving me alone with loneliness.”
"That's it!" Long Er paused and continued: "...It seems that you still retain the memories before the time and space correction."
"Time and space correction..." The girl smiled bitterly again, and even collapsed on the huge rock powerlessly. "I don't even know what time and space correction is, I just feel like I have a real dream... In the dream, I was kidnapped by you and held the dragon vein by you; in the dream, An Lushan's puppet troops launched an attack regardless of my safety, and my people were all pretended to be puppets.
I don’t know whether I’m dreaming or waking up now.”
I see.
Because I had memories before the time and space correction, I knew that An Lushan had a problem and hid in the inner court.
The inner courtyard is the original residence of Queen Loulan. The dragon vein cannot affect it, and An Lushan’s puppet cannot come here either.
But this is the limit that a girl can do.
Without the help of ninja, she could do nothing.
Without Naruto's perseverance of encouragement or even the motivation of setting an example, she would not be able to muster up the courage to take on everything.
(This may be the best ending for her.)
A thought flashed through Long Er's mind, and then he looked up and stared at her, "In this era of war, weakness is sin. If you have such a powerful force as the dragon vein, but you will not be used to strengthen yourself, you will be destined to be destroyed."
"..." The girl opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end they all turned into helpless sighs, "I know that we can't resist you. I will lead the people of Loulan to move, and I hope you can let us go."
"My purpose is just the dragon vein. If you don't come and get in the way, I will not attack you."
"Thank you for your kindness." The girl saluted the boy with a bitter mouth.
"Your thanks will only make me feel like I'm laughing." Long Er jumped down from the upstairs and walked slowly to the girl. "I know what the nature of what I do myself is, and I don't want to give my bad behavior a layer of light."
“Yes, is that right?”
The girl tried hard to squeeze a smile on her face.
Although the other party said this, she is now slaughtering a fish on the plan board.
He is qualified to laugh at himself, but he dare not laugh.
Long Er didn't care.
He shook his head gently and said, "Actually, there is no need for you to take the people of Loulan to leave this city."
"ah?"
The girl looked at Long Er in surprise, a little confused.
"My purpose of seizing the dragon vein is to build a city for the village that is enough to protect everyone's safety."
"Does this... have anything to do with whether we leave?"
"The dragon vein is a chakra vein born from natural circulation, and will continue to flow with natural circulation. As long as this planet is still alive, the dragon vein chakra will be produced continuously.
If you transfer rashly, you may cut off your natural operation, making the dragon vein chakra no longer born."
"So you want to build the city on Loulan?" The girl asked this sentence almost gritted her teeth.
It is natural for her to have such emotions.
Although Loulan is a small country with only one city, it was built bit by bit by bit by bit by bit by bit by bit by bit by persons from all over a hundred years.
At this moment, someone wants to occupy the magpie's nest, how could she be willing to do it!
"Yes, the city will be renovated and expanded based on the tower in Loulan." Long Er turned a blind eye to the girl's expression and said to himself: "I don't say I'm worried about cutting off the natural operation problem, even if I don't have this concern, the huge amount of chakra in the dragon vein cannot be transferred, so I can only build the city here."
"But aren't you ninja villages in the Wind Kingdom?"
"After the city is built, just transport the city back."
"ha?"
The girl opened her mouth slightly widened.
She really wanted to say: Are you having a trick in your mind?
The dragon vein cannot be transferred, so build a city on it and then transfer the city away.
This is not reliable no matter how you hear it.
"You don't have to worry about this. What I want to say is that you can stay in the city I established." Long Er persuaded: "Although Loulan Kingdom will no longer exist in the future and you will no longer be a queen, the people of Loulan will live happily in the new city."
"this……"
The girl was a little hesitant.
The murderer who destroyed Loulan invited the people of Loulan to live in their new city... Anyone who is a Loulan person will be suspicious of this!
but.
Although Ninja Village is a village established by ninjas, many ordinary families moved in because of their stable and safe residence.
These ordinary families do ordinary jobs or business in the village, which can provide convenience in life for ninjas.
The increase in population will also provide more troops for the ninja village and make the village stronger.
Therefore, Ninja Village does not refuse ordinary people to move in.
However, the other party is the murderer who destroys his country after all, so the girl naturally cannot join the other party without any grudges.
However, this era is full of war and the desert is difficult to survive.
If she leads her people to leave Loulan, it will be difficult to find a safe and secure new place of residence in a short period of time.
How many people will die in this process?
(I am the Queen of Loulan and have the responsibility to protect the safety of my people.)
