Chapter 95: Loneliness
In fear, the Uchiha Festival's gaze quickly turned to the strange old man, and said in a cold tone: "Strange old man, I'm leaving here." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
"So fast. The strange old man obviously didn't expect the Uchiha Festival to suddenly offer to leave, "Don't you want to continue healing?"
"Actually, my injuries have long been healed. The Uchiha Priest laughed, "The treatment you've done in the past few days has not helped my injuries at all. The reason is that the most you can do is treat the condition. ”
"I have to say, you ...... Very smart. The strange old man suddenly didn't know what to say.
At this moment, no matter what explanation the strange old man makes, it will be used as a cover-up. To say that he didn't do it was just to cover his ears and steal the bell, and to say that he did, would only make him even more embarrassed.
"I understand why you're doing this. The Uchiha Matsuri bowed his head.
Blaming the old man for doing this, he just wanted to stay in the Uchiha Festival for a few more days.
After living alone in this bamboo forest for twenty years, the strange old man desperately needed someone to talk to. This perfectly explains why the strange old man always pesters the Uchiha Matsuri to tell him stories.
Tsunade ten years ago, and the Uchiha Festival ten years later, are the objects of confiding in the strange old man who has lived in the mountains and forests for a long time.
If nothing happens, the Uchiha Matsuri is more than willing to stay in this forest with the strange old man for a year or more.
It's just that a small bamboo forest can't accommodate the ambitious Uchiha Festival. The eyes of the Uchiha Festival are the position of the Hokage, and it is the entire ninja world.
"I'm sorry. Thinking of this, the Uchiha Matsuri rarely bowed and apologized to the strange old man.
"That's it, since you don't want to be with me, an old man, then you can go. The strange old man looked sad, and then restrained his expression.
"Well, then I'm leaving. The Uchiha said with his head bowed.
Helping the Uchiha Matsuri move the three of them outside the bamboo forest, the strange old man smiled and said goodbye to the Uchiha Matsuri.
"Wait a minute. Just as the strange old man was about to turn around and leave, the Uchiha Matsuri suddenly stopped the strange old man.
"Is there something wrong?" The strange old man obviously didn't expect the Uchiha Festival to suddenly stop him, and looked at the Uchiha Festival with a puzzled expression.
"Do you still have three requests that you haven't mentioned?"
The Uchiha Matsuri doesn't want to owe favors to everyone, as it was in the past life, and it is the same in this life.
Since he can't accompany the strange old man for a few more days, the minimum three requirements, the Uchiha Festival can still do it.
"Three requests?" the strange old man looked down and thought for a moment, then raised his head.
"First, don't talk to anyone about my existence, not even your companions and Tsunade. ”
"Second, if you meet people from the Far Mountains in the future, please try not to harm their lives. ”
"Third, never come back here. ”
"Okay, I promise you. ”
After hearing the strange old man's third request, the Uchiha Festival felt a little weird, but the Uchiha Festival readily agreed to the thought that this was the last request of the life-saving benefactor.
Watching the old man's figure walk farther and farther away, the Uchiha Matsuri muttered softly, "Farewell, old man." ”
Before the Uchiha Matsuri's words fell, the wave wind water gate lying flat on the ground suddenly moved.
"You're awake. The Uchiha Matsuri looked at the wave of the wind and water gate who opened his eyes with concern.
"Sacrifice, what's wrong with me?" Bo Feng Shuimen said with difficulty as he covered his forehead.
It looks like I'm supposed to be dead, why are I still alive?
Without waiting for the Uchiha Festival to reply, Bo Feng Shuimen seemed to think of something, staggered to his feet, and walked towards Uzumaki Kushina: "Kushina, what's wrong with you?"
"Don't worry, she's just asleep and she'll wake up in a moment. The Uchiha shook his head helplessly.
Nima, Bo Feng Shuimen is too abusive to dogs!
The Uchiha Matsuri couldn't help but complain in his heart.
Please, the next time you abuse a dog, you have to consider how I feel as a single dog!
Not perceiving the Uchiha Festival's disgusted expression, Bo Feng Shuimen seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly turned to the Uchiha Festival and asked.
"Sacrifice, what the hell is going on? Aren't we dead, why are we still alive? Also, looking at your appearance, you seem to be fine, who cured you......" Bo Feng Shuimen asked the doubts in his heart.
"That's ......"
Because of the promise of the strange old man, the Uchiha Festival did not mention the existence of the strange old man.
According to the Uchiha Matsuri, this bamboo forest is filled with a thick fog that is prone to hallucination, and if you inhale too much of it, you will fall into a deep sleep. Only when the fog dissipates will the person who has fallen asleep awaken.
At the same time, there is a special fungus in the depths of the bamboo forest, and after eating these fungi, the Uchiha Festival naturally recovers a lot.
As for why the Uchiha Matsuri didn't fall asleep, it was because the Uchiha Matsuri opened the Sharingan Eye and saw through this illusion.
After listening to the explanation of the Uchiha Festival, Bo Feng Shuimen and the Uzumaki Kushina and Takayama who had just woken up all had black lines on their faces.
Come on, why do you say this like making it up......
Although he knew that the Uchiha Festival was making up a story, Bo Feng Shuimen and the others did not choose to expose him.
Since the Uchiha Festival is unwilling to tell the truth to Bo Feng Shuimen and the others, can it be that Bo Feng Shuimen and the others can still force the Uchiha Festival to say everything?
"What about the strange old man that Tsunade-sama mentioned, you wouldn't have failed to see him, would you?" asked Takayama.
"Nope. The Uchiha shook his head and said with an innocent expression, "Maybe there isn't such a person at all." Perhaps, I have been in this forest for more than twenty days, and I have not met that strange old man. ”
"More than twenty days?" Uzumaki Kushina was so shocked that she couldn't keep her mouth shut.
"That's right, the fog lasted for more than twenty days before it dissipated. In other words, you have been asleep for more than twenty days. The Uchiha Matsuri glanced at the three of them who looked surprised, and said helplessly.
"Oops, it's been a month since we left Konoha. Hokage-sama must be worried about us to death. Gao Shan slapped his thigh and exclaimed.
Before leaving, Takayama made a guarantee to the three Hokages that the team would solve the problem of the Uchiha Festival within ten days and return to Konoha safely.
What I didn't expect was that just being poisoned and unconscious, the fifth class was delayed for more than 20 days, plus the time spent looking for the bamboo forest before, this trip to the country of grass took a month.
"We're going back quickly. The Uchiha said, "If we go back a few days later, maybe our names will already be engraved on the memorial monument." ”
For missing ninjas, Konoha has always used death instead of disappearance, as the final verdict on missing ninjas.
The four members of the fifth class have been "missing" for a month, and according to Konoha's regulations, it may really be possible that the names of the four people have been engraved on the memorial monument.
