Naruto: A bird in a cage can't trap me Fenghou Qimen

Chapter 41 The Kingdom of Ghosts

The commission that Fengqi accepted was to solve the problem of the undead samurai that was plaguing the Land of Birds, something he had confirmed with Chishima before.

Now that all the truth has surfaced, with the accusations of other wandering ninjas and subsequent evidence investigations, the arrest of the culprit, the monk Meng Zong, is a foregone conclusion.

In this case, Feng Qi would be too lazy to continue to get involved in the remaining troubles.

Can Toki resolve his desire for revenge, can the relationship with Chishima be restored, will the counselor Hongming give up the fight for the position of daimyo as in the original story, what will be the future of the Bird Country, etc.

None of this has anything to do with him!

The next day, faced with irrefutable evidence, the eminent monk Meng Zong admitted in front of all the citizens of the Country of Birds that he had murdered the daimyo and the heir apparent.

A highly respected monk turned out to be a vicious thug who killed the daimyo? !
The people were all shocked and at a loss for words, unable to believe the sudden news.

The "Eminent Monk Meng Zong Incident" had a significant impact on the Bird Kingdom, and many officials and nobles were involved.

However, the turmoil was soon quelled by the dual tactics of the strategist Hongming, who used both kindness and power. For some unknown reason, he finally chose to help the young daimyo govern the country wholeheartedly, just as he had assisted Osagi before.

As for the wandering ninjas who stood up and identified Meng Zong, they successfully obtained the right to settle down in the Bird Country.

The crested ibis, who showed his true face, also regained some vitality, and with Chishima's company, he gradually adapted to his high-ranking and powerful identity as a national daimyo.

If there is one difference, it is that in the Bird Kingdom, there is a legend of a "fortune teller".

Zhu Lu and Qian Dao have not forgotten Feng Qi's kindness.

In order to repay this benefactor who left without saying goodbye, Zhu Lu ordered people to compile Feng Qi's deeds in the capital into a book and circulate it in the Kingdom of Birds.

Apart from several folk anecdotes that are always accurate, the most eye-catching one is naturally "The Taoist Priest with White Eyes Exorcises the Ghosts of Samurai Warriors"!

Through merchants, relatives and other channels, Fengqi's Taoist booklet gradually spread to neighboring countries.

Because the novel and interesting story is quite fascinating, and has some "ghost" elements, the sales are quite good, and it even surpassed the Intimate Paradise series for a while!

Of course, Feng Qi was unaware of this at the time.

After five days and four nights of leisurely journey to the west, he passed through the Bear Country and part of the Wind Country, where special chakra meteorites fell from the sky, and killed several teams of ignorant bounty ninjas during the journey.

Finally, we arrived at a country with a long history.

"The auspicious position shown by the hexagram I peeked into from the interior before should be here."

Feng Qi stood on a cliff with his arms folded across his chest, looking down at the entire city with a calm expression.

A light breeze blew across the cliff, lifting the cuffs of his long, flowing grey robe and blowing away the hair on his forehead, revealing the unusually conspicuous caged bird curse mark.

"So, this is the country of ghosts..."

Speaking of the neutral Demon Country, it is different from ordinary countries in that it has a shrine system with "daimyo" as the ruling power.

What impressed Feng Qi the most was naturally the alien monster that had an irreconcilable feud with this country: the Wuliang that claimed to have the power to destroy the world!
Many years ago, Wuliang once led a large army of puppet-like soldiers to attack the ninja world, causing countless ninja casualties.

With the joint efforts of ninjas from different countries, in the end, the first generation witch of the Demon Kingdom forcibly separated the soul and body of the monster, and sealed it in the underground palace of the Demon Kingdom and the temple of the neighboring Swamp Kingdom.

From then on, successive priestesses of the Demon Kingdom have been fulfilling this important responsibility, preventing the resurrection of the monsters at any cost!

This also indirectly led to the fact that the shrine maiden was the symbol of supremacy in the land of demons and was the object of service that everyone should take for granted.

"If I remember correctly, even if the monsters are killed, they will eventually be resurrected with the help of human negative emotions."

Feng Qi sat cross-legged on the ground, thinking carefully about the intelligence about the ghosts, "Negative emotions..." "Besides, the witch's innate powerful sealing technique seems to have room for manipulation."

Thinking of this, Feng Qi slowly stood up, patted the dust off his body, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "Interesting, no wonder the Ghost Country is my lucky place."

Since the interior view only gives a general direction, there is no very clear specific method.

Therefore, he decided to go to the capital of the Ghost Kingdom to collect information first and then take action.

——About finding a way to bypass desires and practice Fenghou Qimen!
As a neutral country, the capital of the Ghost Kingdom is not as heavily guarded as other countries, and there are many businessmen coming and going on the road.

Even so, considering that he would need to stay in the Land of Demons for some time, his identity as a traitor might cause unnecessary trouble.

Feng Qi was still wearing dark sunglasses and a forehead protector without a label, and a gray robe covering his entire body.

After slightly fiddling with the Qimen Bureau and circumventing the inspection of the Ghost Country Guards, he set up a fortune-telling stall on a busy street.

If you want to understand this country, starting with basic public surveys may yield unexpected results.

As for the place where the ghost soul was imprisoned, although Feng Qi could sense its approximate location, he was not in a hurry.

After all, it is a monster comparable to the tailed beast and has the power to destroy the world. There are also many security forces around it. He doesn't want to come into contact with it without sufficient preparation!

The more hope he saw in increasing his strength, the more he focused on keeping his mentality calm and peaceful.

This is the safest way to ensure safety.

In this way, Fengqi's fortune-telling stall was set up on the streets of the Land of Ghosts.

Compared to the Bird Kingdom, the residents here believe in and care more about the "prophecies" of the witches. In their view, the more accurate the prophecy, the more misfortune it will bring with it death!
Therefore, Fengqi's business can be said to be very bad, almost to the extreme:

The residents of the Land of Ghosts only saw the fortune-telling plaque that said "Knowing the changes of all things in the world" from afar, and they avoided it as if they had encountered the god of plague, for fear of being implicated by the "unknown".

Not to mention a smooth opening, even the number of people coming over out of curiosity to ask about prices was very small!

And this is actually what happened to Shion, the current priestess of the Land of Demons.

All those who are marked with the "death prophecy" by Shion, whether they are willing or not, will have only one final outcome, which is to welcome the arrival of death in fear.

Because if that person doesn't die, the one who will die is the shrine maiden who is of noble status and shoulders heavy responsibilities. This is something that no one in the Land of Demons can accept!

Feng Qi had expected this kind of treatment and was not panicked at all.

Even if there is no business, with his keen observation, he can see a lot of hidden information from the passers-by.

and……

I don’t know if it’s because of my good fortune today or if it’s destiny’s guidance.

Not long after Feng Qi set up his stall, a white-haired, light-eyed girl walked slowly over under the protection of his personal attendants and stopped in front of Feng Qi, who was lying on a bench with a grass root in his mouth.

The sound of crisp bells rang out.

"Hello, would you like to have your fortune told?" Feng Qi raised his eyes and said with a smile.

Shion stared blankly at the leisurely and easy-going man in front of her, thinking of the horrific scene she "saw" when she woke up in the morning, and spoke in a cold voice:
"You will die in the near future."
