Chapter 77 I am a monk

"Village Chief Guiyan, please come in."

Hearing the greetings from outside the door, Yang Xiang calmly extended his divine sense.

Sure enough, the person outside the door was Tsuchigumo Oni Yan. No one knew why he had come to visit so late at night.

"Brother Sasuke, I've come late at night to seek your help..." A light shone from the palm of Tsuchigumo Oni, and then the voice became indistinct, as Yang Xiang's divine sense was blocked.

It's a soundproof barrier; the Earth Spider Clan's Word Binding Technique is really useful.

This ninjutsu, which combines barrier techniques with natural energy, greatly troubled Yang Xiang's consciousness and also piqued his interest.

He simply pushed open the door and went out to join the two of them in their conversation.

Upon seeing Yang Xiang emerge, Gui Yan was visibly startled and turned his gaze to Uchiha Kagami.

Before Uchiha Kagami could reply, the doors to the other rooms opened from the inside, and everyone came out one after another, except for Uzumaki Ayaka, who was sleeping soundly.

"It seems I really have bothered you," Gui Yan said with a laugh.

After everyone was seated, he said to Uchiha Kagami, "Brother Sasuke, you're not itinerant merchants, are you?"

Gui Yan had already noticed Yang Xiang and his group when the grain convoy entered the village.

The incident started with a small disturbance caused by village ninjas inspecting goods. Although it was quickly quelled, he still kept an eye on a few of them.

For the safety of the village, he deliberately hid on the carriage to eavesdrop on Yang Xiang and the others' conversation.

Although information about the Tsuchigumo clan is not a secret, it is not something that ordinary traveling merchants can obtain.

Moreover, if what Uchiha Kagami said is true, that they came from the Land of Rice Fields, they practically traversed the entire Land of Fire.

She was also taking care of several children, which is something that not everyone can do.

Fortunately, after making contact, he realized that the people did not have any ill intentions towards the Earth Spider Clan.

Gui Yan had no intention of exposing him.

However, when he needed help, they were the first people he thought of, so he had to confirm things with them.

The technique begins!

Yang Xiang grabbed Vortex Flame's hand and extinguished the sealing spell on it.

Why is this child so fierce?

During the day, the Earth Spider Demon led everyone on a tour of the village, introducing them and inviting them to meals.

Anyone with a sound mind can see that something is wrong.

Why would a village chief be so kind to a traveling merchant for no reason?

Even with a lack of intelligence, it shouldn't be this bad.

Uchiha Kagami smiled slightly and handed over the certificate he was carrying.

"Amitabha Buddha, we are actually monks from the land of fields."

?

The Earth Spider Demon accepted the transfer certificate with a blank expression.

It is clearly written on the document that the holder of this document is named Sasuke.

Is it guaranteed to be authentic?

He had planned this before he came.

He had speculated that the group might be ronin samurai or ninja.

They might even be ninjas from some small country.

But I didn't expect him to be a monk.

How come you've become a master?

Facing the suspicious gaze of Tsuchigumo Oni, Uchiha Kagami gave a wicked smile.

When you're out in the world, you give yourself your own identity.

..

He has more than eighty such identities.

Uchiha Kagami gave Sarutobi Shinnosuke a look.

Shinnosuke jumped up, startling Oni-chan.

"Om Amogha Viru Zanna Maha Mu..."

After reciting the entire mantra, Sarutobi Shinnosuke exhaled a breath of stale air and smiled.

He used to fight with a stick, but his inner talent was unseen by anyone!

Everyone assumed that his fierce-looking beard meant he must be a tough man, but in fact he also had a sensitive heart.

He was the only one in the family who could recite the entire scripture from memory.

After Sarutobi Shinnosuke sat down, Uchiha Kagami nodded in satisfaction.

His act of producing the ordination certificate was not arbitrary; it was a premeditated plan.

Among the personnel on this mission, Senju, Uchiha, Sarutobi, and Uzumaki are all Buddhists.

Every year during the pilgrimage, everyone can recite a few lines.

This time he only drew Sarutobi Shinnosuke, but he believed that anyone present could have performed the same way.

Of course, it was fortunate that he didn't send Yang Xiang.

Otherwise, I'll just have to perform the Great Heavenly Dragon for my friends at the Earth Spider Temple.

Although I go to the temple with my grandmother every year, I always pray for wealth and make wishes, and I have never seriously read the Buddhist scriptures.

Yang Xiang was stunned when Sarutobi Shinnosuke spoke such a long passage.

He would have applauded if the situation hadn't been inappropriate.

That's a great job!

What? You have to chant sutras to make a vow to the Bodhisattva?

Isn't it just a matter of clapping your hands and getting paid to do something?

(o)?

The Earth Spider Demon was also taken aback.

When Sarutobi Shinnosuke stood up, he was ready to dodge, thinking that the guy was going to hit him.

Unexpectedly, he really does look like a wise master. You can't judge a book by its cover.

He awkwardly put his hands together and made a perfunctory bow.

"But, Sasuke... Master, what about your hair?"

Uchiha Kagami touched his sideburns in realization.

"You've been out for a long time, grown up, and the conditions have been harsh. There's nowhere to rest. Village Chief Guiyan wants to see a bald head? Not necessarily!"

After saying that, Uchiha Kagami pulled Kurama Murakumo over, took out a knife, and prepared to give him a new look.

Kurama Congyun: !!!

You are truly my dear teacher!

Why don't you shave your own!

If that doesn't work, you have three disciples!

You can't do it, let Mikoto... never mind, she's a girl.

Then let Yang Xiang have it!

Fine, I'll take it!

With a death-defying resolve, Kurama Congyun closed his eyes and stiffened his neck.

The Uchiha clan's specialty is wielding shuriken.

So his skill was absolutely top-notch; in the blink of an eye, half of Kurama Murakumo's hair was completely shaved off.

The Earth Spider Demon felt a throbbing in his temple.

He quickly grabbed Uchiha Kagami's hand.

"Brother, no, Master! That's not what I meant."

Uchiha Kagami glanced at him calmly and put down the complete wig he was displaying.

"Alright then, we'll continue when we have time. Village Chief Guiyan is right, we monks should still pay attention to our image when we're out in public."

Kurama Congyun: !!!

Are you even human?!

If that's not what you meant, why didn't you say so earlier!

I've already shaved half my head!

And, Teacher Jing!

Why did you shave the left half of my hair?

Gui Yan felt a lump in his throat upon hearing Jing's words.

"Master, you misunderstand. I just saw everyone eating meat at noon, so I didn't think of it that way. I was a little surprised."

Uchiha Kagami's eyelid twitched.

Oh no, I missed one crucial step despite all my careful planning.

Unexpectedly, Yuto Uzumaki suddenly spoke up.

"Actually, we don't eat meat, but the host said that we should give face to others in public."

"For example, if a benefactor invites us to lunch, and we are all strangers to each other, and the benefactor invites us to eat a few bites, we must accept the invitation regardless of whether we eat meat or not, otherwise it would be disrespectful."

Yang Xiang was amused and filled the teacup on the table, pushing it towards Gui Yan.

"Village Chief Guiyan, have a couple of drinks."
