In the woods, a figure was jumping quickly on various branches. She looked a little nervous, as if she was avoiding something.

"Where did Miss Terumi Mei go?"A tall and mighty man hurried over and turned to question the man who was a head shorter than him.

"right...Sorry, I lost you..."

"I just let you watch it for five minutes and you can lose it? Who did the master of the house send to protect the young lady?..."

The man couldn't help but touch his forehead, but after being speechless, he still reached out and patted the short man on the shoulder."Hurry up and look for her. If you can't find the lady before dawn, I have no excuse to go back and face the head of the family."

"yes...!"

Listening to the footsteps that were far away, Terumi Mei poked her head out from a bush. After confirming that the two people's backs could no longer be seen, she breathed a sigh of relief. She stood up slowly and walked towards the open space.

The cool mountain air made her feel relaxed and happy, and her mood immediately improved a lot.

At this time, Kirigakure Village already looked like a capital of blood mist, and her path to changing Kirigakure often ran into obstacles. She tried to ask her father for help, but what she got in exchange was a warning from his father to keep her mind off her own business. She didn't know what kind of evil possessed her father. Recently, he even refused to let her continue to practice ninjutsu and only let her stay at home.

Nowadays, her father goes out every day to deal with business and financial problems. Terumi Mei originally wanted to take advantage of this time to sneak away to a place far away from the village to practice alone. But what she didn't expect was that her father had obviously expected this. At one point, a dedicated ninja was sent to keep an eye on her.

And this ninja is not a different ninja, it is the squad leader Jin Doshun who has been performing tasks in the Kirigakure Anbu for many years. In fact, he himself has a close relationship with Terumi Mei's father. After the Fourth Mizukage began to reject the line of blood succession, When he was a ninja, he keenly resigned from his position as team leader, and then turned around and started a hawker business.

At this time, Terumi Mei's father was looking for a trustworthy ninja to take care of his troubled daughter, and he happened to be the best candidate.

But this made Terumi Mei feel a lot frustrated. Jin Doshun's strength was still much higher than his own at this time, which put Terumi Mei into a situation where it made no sense to explain and couldn't be beaten.

At this time, she shook her head, no longer thinking about these things that would make her depressed, and prepared to take a rest before starting today's training.

She listened to the sound of the river rushing towards the rocks, and couldn't help but walk closer. But as she walked closer, she saw something floating in the water in the distance, and the shape resembled a person.

Terumi Mei was suddenly shocked, thinking quickly about how to rescue the man.

The current here is fierce, and the method of using chakra to walk on the water is only suitable for calm seas. If that person is really unconscious, jumping into the water is the best solution.

So she quickly took a few more glances. After confirming that the thing was a person, she jumped into the water almost without thinking, preparing to carry out rescue.

Living in the Kingdom of Water, she had often gone fishing with her father in the early days because of the family's food source. While developing her swimming skills, she had also seen many cases of children drowning due to playfulness. She would come forward to rescue her every time, and it was the same this time.

She is very good at water, so good that she can adapt to changes in various currents and find the most effortless swimming style. So much so that now she can swim to the shore half-carrying the unconscious man without even holding on to any floating objects.

Terumi Mei panted and dragged the man ashore, and then sat down on the ground with some exhaustion. Although she was good at water, the current was fast, and the man seemed to be completely unconscious, and his weight was heavier than normal. Heavy, causing Terumi Mei to be a little physically exhausted.

She waited for a while before standing up and casting her gaze on the man's face. It was better not to look at it. When she looked at it, she was stunned.

The person in front of her was wearing a black short-sleeved shirt with a stand-up collar. The sleeve on the left shoulder disappeared. There was nothing on her body that could prove her identity. Only the three swords on her waist were unusually eye-catching.

She has long black hair with slightly curled ends. Her face is delicate but still has a hint of childishness. At this time, her lips were slightly open, and there seemed to be no sign of waking up.

Mimei will never forget this face in her life. This is the girl she had fought with at the border of the Land of Fire, Jiushi!

Terumi Mei suddenly felt the corner of her mouth twitching unnaturally, and then she took out a kunai and stared at Nan Ming's face, as if she was making some decision.

But at this moment, the person in front of her suddenly frowned. After coughing twice, blood actually overflowed from her mouth. This made Terumi Mei feel a little confused. She quickly grabbed the person's shoulder and wanted to check her status.

But the hot body temperature on Nan Ming's body made her retract her hand. Even though there was a layer of cloth, Terumi Mei could still feel that this person's body temperature was still rising.

"Why is it so hot?"

Actually, she started to have doubts as soon as she got into the water. In mid-October, the autumn tiger has not passed yet, but the temperature of the river has already begun to bite. Children usually play in it for a while and then swim ashore because of the cold. Terumi Mei looked at Nan Ming. Her fingers were slightly swollen from soaking, and the doubts in her heart gradually increased. She had been soaking in this condition for at least a day, but why was her body temperature still so hot?

She accidentally saw something red on Nan Ming's neck. Something, so she turned Nan Ming's head away, and found that the man's white neck was covered with thorn-shaped charms, and they were even glowing secretly. A trace of shock flashed across Terumi Mei's face. She had never seen such a charm before. This situation.

But while she was shocked, she keenly saw the pendant of the necklace worn around Nan Ming's neck. It was a blue cat's eye stone. Terumi Mei's pupils suddenly shrank. Isn't this her own necklace? Why? Will it appear on her neck?

This necklace is the necklace that her father gave her since she was a child. It has the meaning of keeping safe. When Terumi Mei grew up, she also discovered that this was not an ordinary stone, but a stone that could transport chakra. Spirit Stone, so she transferred a small part of her chakra into it, just as a small thought, and then she never took care of the necklace again.

Then, she gave the necklace to a masked person. A child, she remembered that the little girl had the blood inheritance limit of ice attribute......Wait a minute, the blood inheritance limit of the ice attribute is exactly the same as the characteristics of Nan Minghui's ice attribute!

So Terumi Mei quickly stretched out her fingers to feel the cat's eye stone, and found that the chakra inside was her own.

She looked at Nan Ming's face with some confusion, but the kunai in her hand could not be dropped at this moment. If the child was really her, then why didn't she kill herself at that time and talk about that stupid thing with her? The dream of changing Kirigakure.

While Terumi Mei was brainstorming, Nan Ming suddenly opened her eyes. The fierce sunlight made her unable to adapt for a while. Nan Ming squinted her eyes, and then focused on Terumi Mei's face.

She has long brown hair and a delicate appearance. Those green eyes were looking at him brightly at this moment

"Who are you..."Nan Ming had a splitting headache, but he still recognized who the other person was at a glance.
