Chapter 78 Free is the most expensive

  The border of the Land of Fire, a forest near the Land of Rain.

  Oshemaru stood on a treetop, raised his hand to unseal the seal between White Snake's eyebrows, a memory suddenly appeared in his mind, and a grin could not help but appear on the corner of his mouth.

  Whether the trip to Longdi Cave can learn celestial arts and strengthen chakra to the strength of the blood succession limit is still unknown.

  But there is Danzo to take over the research of the first generation of cells, after all, there is an extra way out.

   rustle rustle...

  Suddenly, a nearly 20-meter-long wild boar jumped out of the forest, sniffing the ground with its dark arched nose, turning over the soil from time to time, devouring tree roots and bulbs.

   Seeing this, Orochimaru licked his lips, put away his previous thoughts, jumped down from the treetops, and pounced on the wild boar.

  ... After a while, after depriving the wild boar of its mobility, Orochimaru made seals with both hands, "Psychic art!"

  The white smoke dissipated, and a purple python appeared in the forest.

  Wan Snake looked down from above, looked around, and after making sure that there were no enemies around, he fixed his gaze on the howling wild boar, a little displeased, "Oshemaru, this stupid pig can't be worth the sacrifice of two hundred people."

  Speaking confidently, with a shameless face, he completely forgot that he had tricked Orochimaru in the first place.

   "..."

  Oshemaru stood with folded arms, smiled and said nothing, if it wasn't for the trip to Ryudi Cave, Wanshe would still be useful, and this pig wouldn't give it to it.

   Still want two hundred people? Give you half and be content.

   It took a long time to get a reply, Wan Snake snorted unhappily, twisted its body, wrapped itself around the whining wild boar, and opened its mouth to swallow it.

  「I thought you would really catch people and feed them to ten thousand snakes.」

  Deng Shen looked at this scene in amazement. He thought it was a living sacrifice, but he didn't expect this 'person' to be just a unit of measurement.

  This porcupine weighs at least four to five thousand kilograms, isn't it just a hundred or so people?

  Seeing Wan Snake's impatient look, the Genie was a little puzzled, "It's just a wild boar. It's not impossible to catch Wan Snake's ability. As for eating so ugly."

   "Wan Snake can catch it, but it doesn't have that chance at all." Orochimaru smiled and explained,

  「Longdi Cave is located in the land of stones. There are only big rocks and small stones there. It is very desolate, unlike the forest of the land of fire, where there are no larger prey.

  And... without the permission of the White Snake Immortal, the snakes in Longdi Cave are not allowed to leave the cave without permission. "

   "I see." Deng Shen nodded slightly, understanding what Orochimaru meant.

  Using the instinct of snakes to live as cold-blooded animals, if the country of stones is used as a hunting ground for hunting, one can imagine what kind of tragedy will happen.

   Compared with animals with crisis instincts, humans are much easier to hunt and kill.

  But if such an incident happens, no matter what kind of holy land of fairy arts, Ryudi Cave will inevitably be strangled by the joint efforts of ninja villages from all over the world.

  The reason is also very simple-if you are not of my race, your heart will be different, and your body will be punishable.

  White Snake Immortal will naturally not sit back and watch the genocide happen in order to satisfy the appetites of the little snakes.

  Besides, ordinary people actually don’t have much to eat. The ninjas who go to Ryuji Cave every year to practice fairy arts are high-end snacks that can satisfy their cravings.

  Deng Shen glanced at Wan Snake, and continued to ask, "According to what you said, there must be abundant food resources in Longdi Cave. What exactly do they eat?"

  Although Longdi Cave is a sacred place of immortality, practicing immortality obviously cannot fill one's stomach. Moreover, Wan Snake, a useless snake, does not know how to use immortality. It has grown so big because it has passively accepted the erosion of natural energy.

  「There are only snakes in Ryuchi Cave, what else can they eat.」

  Oshemaru grinned the corners of his mouth, showing his sharp teeth, and suddenly said, "Myriad Snakes are not only the king of myriad snakes, but they also swallowed tens of thousands of serpents, hence the name."

  The law of the jungle, the law of the jungle, it is normal to eat the same kind in nature.

  「No, it’s impossible.」

  Deng Shen shook his head, but he did not deny the law of the jungle.

  Under Dashemaru’s surprised eyes, he explained the ecosystem model of ‘producer-consumer-decomposer’,

  「Although the ninja world has extraordinary power, it cannot be generalized, but it is generally true. Snakes at the bottom of the food chain cannot appear out of thin air.」

  Hearing this, Orochimaru frowned slightly.

  The scientific level of the ninja world is not behind, but compared with another world, it looks much deformed. Most of the technologies are highly bound to war, and there is a great lack of how to explain the world.

  Food chains, ecosystems... are new words for Orochimaru, and he has never observed the world from this angle, so he is a bit unable to answer at this time.

  「Perhaps the big snake eats the small snake, and the small snake eats mice and bugs...」

  Oshemaru gave an answer at random, but seeing that the Djinn was not satisfied, he still wanted to investigate further, wondering, "These are just ordinary things, what's the big deal?"

   "Of course it doesn't matter what matters, but a glimpse of the leopard may reveal some of the character of the White Snake Immortal."

  Deng Shen took a look at Orochimaru and said with a smile, "Although the environment can shape personality, but at the level of the White Snake Immortal, this sentence is the opposite. The environment is an extension of its will."

  “For example, in Konoha, there are three generations of the ‘Will of Fire’, and in the root, there is also Danzo’s ‘Will of Root’. Only by obeying their will will the people under him be promoted.”

  Oshemaru raised his eyebrows, he had a deep understanding of what the lamp **** said, why didn't he, Orochimaru, not impose his will on his subordinates.

  Compared to Konoha, Ryūji Cave is the hall of the White Snake Immortal, without the constraints faced by the old man and Danzo, the character that can be seen may be a little more accurate.

   "Last time, you failed to obtain the magic spell and narrowly escaped your life. Although you have entered the regular mode of the breathing method this time, how much more likely will it be?"

  Deng Shen smiled, "If you can change this 'begging' into an exchange, from free to paid, the probability of success must be much higher."

   "Look, isn't the toad at Mt. Miaomu carefully teaching him the art of immortality just because he has something for Jiraiya and the "Child of Destiny" standing in line?"

  「You know, the free ones are the most expensive and the least reliable ones.」

   At the end, Orochimaru's eyes were a little weird, and it was really convincing for the lamp **** to say this sentence.

   After pondering for a moment, Orochimaru flew to the top of Ten Thousand Snakes, and asked, "Ryujidong, what is the food for you snakes?"

   Wan Snake's throat was swollen high, and he was devouring the wild boar. Hearing this, he was startled, "Huh?!"

  Oshemaru repeated the question again, and Wanshe snorted arrogantly, "Why are you asking this? I have no obligation to answer you."

   Orochimaru didn't talk nonsense, and directly separated a shadow clone, flying towards the distance, "Answer my question, and I will catch a prey for you later."

   "I want two."

   Trying to make the process of swallowing the wild boar smoother, Wan Snake raised his head and said proudly, "That's what I deserve, sir."
