MTL - Orochimaru’s Magic Lamp-Chapter 320 real danger

  Chapter 320 The real danger

  Power always has a price.

   This is something Orochimaru knew very early on.

  In the process of communicating with the lamp **** over the years, I have a deeper understanding of this.

  One drink and one peck, there is a pre-determined; orchid cause and fruit, there must be a reason.

  In order to avoid death, he divided his soul into several parts and planted them in the body of his powerful subordinates in the form of curse seals.

   Although this allowed him to avoid accidental death and give him a chance to start over, it also buried unimaginable troubles in his soul, almost completely destroying all his potential for growth.

  In these years of running around, nearly half of the effort is to solve this hidden danger.

  Learning from the past and learning from the past, Orochimaru will naturally not be stupid enough to deliberately make the same mistake.

  Dragon Hole Cave and Wetbone Forest, at this time, he had the opportunity to use the natural energy accumulation without triggering a fight, and there were only these two places.

   But let's not talk about the attitudes of Slug Immortal and White Snake Immortal towards his growth and evolution. The natural energy contained in these two holy places makes Orochimaru be wary.

   Absorbing these secondary processed natural energies is likely to have unimaginable consequences in the future.

   Therefore, rather than enjoying the protection of the immortals safely in the Holy Land, Orochimaru is more inclined to **** it by himself.

  The yellow sand swirled with gravel, and continued to bombard the barrier of the underground shelter. Ripples appeared on the white light. Judging by the frequency of its shaking, it would be fine even if it persisted for a whole day.

   "Hey, this shell is really strong."

  Deng Shen withdrew his gaze, turned his head to look at Orochimaru, and said with a smile, "The power of the dragon's veins seems to be stronger than imagined, and this will not work."

  He knew very well that although Orochimaru's body was powerful, it couldn't hold on for too long to control such a huge natural disaster.

   "The strength of the dragon veins will only make me happier."

Orochimaru swallowed the snake letter, licked the sweat on his forehead, and said with a smile, "Perhaps the energy of the dragon's veins is higher than mine, but Queen Loulan who controls it is not. No one knows better than me that the power of human beings There is a limit."

  Natural disasters, time... If human beings can resist these huge monsters so easily, why does he have to work so hard for so many years.

   And the fact is just as Orochimaru said, in the confrontation with the yellow sand storm, the white light is slowly weakening.

   It's not that Queen Loulan and the others can't continue after they persisted for such a short time, but that they are looking for a balance against the storm and trying their best to save energy.

  She also knows that if she thinks that she will not suffer any loss, it will only lead everyone to a desperate situation.

  「What an experienced guy.」

  Deng Shen narrated what he had seen and guessed, and couldn't help expressing a sigh of emotion. His eyes fell on Dashewan, and he asked again, "Are you really planning to spend all this time with Queen Loulan and bury all these people?"

   "How come, I'm not that cruel."

  Oshemaru showed a smile on his face, as if he was not the one who manipulated the natural disaster to attack Loulan,

   "Besides, if there are no Loulan people, there will be no so-called Loulan queen. What should I use to make this queen submit obediently?"

  He didn't care about the lives and deaths of these people at all, and now such a big commotion was just to show his strength and let the Loulan people stop having unrealistic fantasies.

   To conquer a place with the protection of the patron saint, there is nothing more shocking than defeating their patron saint head-on, and it can completely shatter their beliefs. Orochimaru knows this very well.

  After all, the homeland is hard to leave, and the land is relocated... It is not that simple for a group of people to abandon their homeland.

   Orochimaru can't give the so-called great expectations of the new homeland, so they can only use such a decisive method to spread more thorough fear and force them to leave voluntarily.

  And left Loulan... Heh, without the protection of the patron saint, whether it is through Shayin Village or Konoha, there are plenty of ways to deal with a group of powerless guys.

  If violence is exhausted from the beginning, it will be much more appropriate later.

  It would be too ridiculous to be self-righteous and think that relying on the prestige of "Konoha Sannin" can not fight against the enemy.

   Orochimaru couldn't kill Queen Loulan after all, but needed to rely on her strength.

Courtesy before soldiers will only make the other party feel lucky, and then show their fangs and threaten the lives of her daughter or other Loulan citizens. Although there is a chance of success, it has already caused resentment. possibility of betrayal.

   And this is intolerable to Orochimaru, he must try his best to reduce the known risks of surgery.

  「The method is very good, but there is still something wrong with it.」

  Deng Shen tilted his head after hearing what Orochimaru said, "Natural disasters are certainly terrifying, but this natural thing must follow the principles of nature."

  "Although these Loulan people are hiding in underground shelters, they can't see any difference between this storm and the past, but the Loulan queen seems to have a way to directly observe the current situation, and may have discovered something."

  Oshemaru is not a native ninja of the Land of Wind after all. Although he has gained a lot of experience from Sand Hidden Village and personally observed several sandstorms, it is inevitable that it will be a bit rough in practice.

   Maybe it can be hidden from ordinary people, but for Queen Loulan, this level is far from enough.

   "It doesn't matter, this is a conspiracy."

  Oshemaru smiled indifferently, "I didn't intend to hide the truth from that Loulan Queen before, on the contrary, I need such a sensible person to exist."

  Ordinary people will have different attitudes towards the same thing for various reasons, but as a qualified leader, you must choose the most beneficial choice for the collective.

  After she developed a covetous desire for the dragon's veins and showed enough strength, many things had already been settled. Queen Loulan definitely didn't want to go down the road of death, but chose to surrender.

  But the people of Loulan are different. When the forest is big, there will be all kinds of birds. If they know the truth, there will inevitably be many voices of opposition.

  In this way, the original optimal choice will cause various problems because of people's hearts.

  The reason why Orochimaru took so much trouble is to avoid this situation.

  The predicament is caused by natural disasters. Leaving their homes is the active choice of the people and leaders. After that, he will provide shelter as a rescuer and cut off from the position of the perpetrator.

   At least he won’t make it clear to those Loulan people. In this way, both the Queen of Loulan and himself will be easy to behave.

   "This is really time-consuming and labor-intensive. If you were in the past, coercion and temptation would be more straightforward."

  Deng Shen spoke teasingly, but there was a hint of emotion in his tone.

  In these years, Orochimaru has grown a lot, and the way of doing things has changed a lot.

   It's not that the previous practice was so bad, it's just that they will consider short-term benefits and use people as consumables.

  And now...Deng Shen reckons that this is just the beginning, and these Loulan people will be squeezed out of their last drop of value by Orochimaru.

  After pondering for a while, the lamp **** said, "There is nothing wrong with your approach as a whole, but I still have a few suggestions."

   "Oh, let's hear it." Orochimaru is not too egotistical, if the Genie has any good ideas, he will naturally accept it.

   "Leaving aside the time-consuming issue, there is actually no need to wrestle with Queen Loulan right now."

  Deng Shen shrugged and said, "Since you didn't intend to hide it from the other party at the beginning, it's not a bad idea to retreat now and have a showdown with him."

   "And there haven't been any casualties yet, it's better for the queen to talk."

   "What you said is very reasonable, but Queen Loulan's attitude is actually not important."

  Oshemaru's eyes fell on those shelters, and he said slowly, "If they didn't experience some blood and death, how could these people leave Loulan easily."

  He hasn't had much contact with the Loulan people, but he has dealt with a lot of people in Shayin Village, who also lives in the desert.

These people are very tough, and Sand Ninja is famous among the five great ninja villages for not being afraid of death. If it weren't for the limited resources, Sand Yin Village has experienced many years of neglect. If you want to imagine how easy it is to suppress Sand Yin Village now, there is almost no any possibility.

  Comparing the two phases, Orochimaru naturally wouldn't underestimate these Loulan people too much.

   To destroy their courage, some tougher methods are still needed.

   "It doesn't have to be like this."

  Deng Shen briefly described what he saw, the panic of the Loulan people at the beginning,

   "Loulan is somewhat different from Shayin Village. Although both have the characteristics of desert people, this is a rare oasis and has been protected by dragon veins for a long time. It can be said to be an alternative paradise."

   "Growing up in this environment may not necessarily have such decisive courage."

  Oshemaru was silent for a moment, seeming to be thinking seriously, while the Genie continued, "Don't overestimate them, and don't underestimate ordinary human beings' fear of natural disasters too much."

  “Not to mention anything else, this yellow sandstorm swept through, and all exposed food would be completely destroyed, and the water source would also be temporarily polluted.

   "It's okay to say that this kind of time lasts for a day or two. No one will stand it after a long time."

   Eating and drinking has always been a major event for human beings, or all living beings.

  The people of Loulan can live in the depths of the desert for so long because they have a hope that under the protection of the dragon veins, they can be protected from the occasional big sandstorm.

   But if one knows that this storm will not only come today, but will come tomorrow and every day after that, this hope will be cut off, and they will start to seek other ways of life.

   "..." Orochimaru nodded slightly after hearing what the lamp **** said, "Forget it, let's try it according to what you said."

  Anyway, he has the opportunity to find another nascent storm at any time and hit a carbine.

  …

  On the altar, Queen Loulan and her daughter Sara were pale, their faces covered with fine sweat, and they were obviously very tired.

  But the spirits of the two were a little excited, because in the perception of the dragon veins, the sandstorm stayed in Loulan for a while, and then gradually moved away.

   In other words, the greatest danger has been passed, and the dawn will come if you persist for a while.

  Of course, precisely because of this, the two of them will never let down their vigilance at this time. If the paralysis at this time leads to failure, it would be really unwilling.

   "..."

  Time passed minute by minute, and they all breathed a sigh of relief when they witnessed the power of the sandstorm leave the range of Loulan.

   "Sara, it's your first time to experience the consciousness of dragon veins, so don't force yourself, just step back for now."

  Queen Loulan stroked her daughter's hair and said softly, "For the next surveillance, just let me do it alone."

"…okay."

  Sara did not refuse, or was unable to refuse.

  But after breaking off the consciousness contact with the dragon veins and returning to the body, the mind is completely relaxed, and at the same time, the feeling of fatigue surges up like a tide.

  Sara's body sank, her whole body went limp, she had no image, she sat down on the ground, and began to pant heavily, instinctively relieving her tiredness.

  Queen Loulan couldn't help smiling when she saw her like this, but soon regained her spirit, and perceived the direction of the sandstorm with her consciousness.

   After a while, after confirming that she had completely gone away, Queen Loulan withdrew from the state of prayer, holding her chest and panting slightly.

  Seeing this, Sara hurriedly took out her handkerchief, and stepped forward to wipe the sweat off Queen Loulan's forehead, with an admiring look on her face, "Mother is really amazing."

  If she had been in contact with the dragon veins for so long, she didn't know what state she was in at this time.

   "Don't be envious, you will only be better than me in the future." Queen Loulan touched her daughter's head with a loving expression on her face.

   "..." Hearing what her mother said, instead of being happy, Sara shook her head.

   It is the first time to come into contact with extraordinary power, to fight against unspeakable natural disasters. If you are a boy, you may be too excited to be yourself at this time, thinking about adventures and journeys in your mind.

   But she is not.

  Suddenly encountered such an accident, although she survived without any danger, Sarah only felt a little scared at this time.

  Natural disasters are merciless, what if the yellow sand storm stays in Loulan for a little longer?

  Sara didn't dare to imagine, her heart was filled with all kinds of emotions.

   "What are you thinking, my little princess, the sandstorm has passed." Queen Loulan pinched her daughter's face and asked with a smile.

   "Mother, why do we stay in Loulan?"

  Sara raised her head, but still couldn't help asking, "Although there is the protection of the patron saint, this place is really too dangerous. What if..."

   Speaking of this, the voice subconsciously stopped. No matter how I thought about it, now that I escaped death and just survived a catastrophe, I really shouldn't say these depressing words.

   "Mother is glad you're starting to think about this."

  Queen Loulan didn't blame her, but she was a little relieved, "But you still don't know much. Natural disasters are terrible, but they are only temporary."

   "But people's hearts are unpredictable. This is something more dangerous than any natural disaster."

  Sara looked at her mother half-understanding, and subconsciously nodded.

   "Okay, these things can be thought about later."

  Queen Loulan patted her daughter on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Next, I want you to inform everyone that the disaster is over."

   "Yeah, okay." Sarah also wanted her mother to rest for a while, and trotted all the way out of the sacrificial hall.

  Watching her daughter leave, Queen Loulan's face suddenly darkened.
