141 Peculiar tastes

In addition to Xiao Nan, who was killed halfway, Zhou Jian Min's plan of "going out to cultivate and enjoying cherry blossoms by the way, but actually observing the high-level of Konoha " was implemented smoothly.

Using the potion he carried with him, he woke up the two coachmen who had fallen unconscious due to Xiao Nan's attack, and after the two of them had completely recovered and reconfirmed that they had no other external or internal injuries, he set off back to Konoha again.

Because it was still early, according to Funakatsu's prediction, they could have rushed back to Konoha before sunset; It was only due to Xiao Nan's appearance that they didn't arrive at Konoha Village until dark.

Fortunately, Funaka had already informed Bo Feng Shui Gate before setting off, so when the group finally rushed back to the village, the village gate had not yet been keyed, and Veneto, who was sitting outside the carriage, could see from a distance the two ninjas on duty who had been instructed by the Shidaime Hokage early in the morning to sit at the door, yawning boredly.

Seeing the carriage marked with the octagonal pattern of the real boat family's Qingyun Zhaoshui slowly driving into the village, even knowing that there were few families in the entire Konoha Village that could use the carriage, one of the two ninjas on duty still got up and opened the curtain to inspect after getting permission.

Funakami Min, who used to be a member of the ninjas, naturally knew the reason for their actions, so he didn't say anything at all, and even smiled and nodded at the other party.

"There was a little accident on the way, and the two of you have been waiting for a long time," Zhou Jianwen, who had already rested for a while on the way, although he was not full of energy at the moment, but it was not difficult to have a normal conversation, "It's getting late at the moment, and I'll apologize to the two of you in a few days."

The two ninjas who were originally complaining because the carriage of the real Zhou family had not appeared for a long time, after hearing Zhou Jianwen's apology, the dissatisfaction in their hearts immediately disappeared, and they didn't even forget to ask, "Is Lord Jianwen okay?" ”

The Dumiao of the Mashu family is not in good health, but everyone in Konoha Village knows that she is sick for most of the month on weekdays, and she is only a short trip, which is enough to make many people worry.

Not to mention that she just mentioned the accident.

"Lao and the two are worried, everything is fine," Zhou Jianwen smiled and exchanged a few words with them, and then the other party saw that there was nothing unusual on Zhou Jianwen's carriage, so he let him go.

The gate of the village was closed by the two of them as the carriage slowly drove into the village.

Xiao Nan's sudden attack was nothing to Zhou Jian Min, who had long been accustomed to all kinds of battles, but her mental peace still couldn't bear the physical fatigue, so as soon as she returned to Zhenzhou's house, she didn't even arrange anything, so she washed and slept.

This sleep was until the afternoon of the next day.

Because Zhou Jianwen's health has always been bad, even if Zhou Jianwen doesn't need to ask about some things in the real Zhou family, several housekeepers in the family can arrange all the chores in an orderly manner.

Most of these stewards have been working in the real boat family since Zhenzhou's mother was still alive.

They are loyal, whether they choose to become a ninja or have to retire from the front line due to injury and choose to become a merchant, they always look down on her, but they never rely on the old or have the heart of arrogance.

After washing, Zhou Jian Wen ate as if he had been in the previous two worlds, listening to Veneto's report while eating.

Although she was attacked outside yesterday, her situation today is not bad - Zhou Jian Minyuan thought that she was frightened yesterday and would have a low-grade fever more or less because of the fatigue of the journey, but she didn't want her state today to reach the level of "eating Ma Ma Xiang".

If you ignore the daily cough, it can already be said that the state is extremely good.

"Judging from the current situation, after the attack that night, the advisory group should have temporarily given up on the intention of expanding the shrine," Kaga, who had been staying at Mashu's house for the past few days to do things for Minu Zhou, was also in Min's room at the moment, and she sat beside Veneto in a messy manner, reporting to Minu Zhou, who was eating.

"For the time being......" Zhou Jian Min shook his head, as if he was a little distressed that the advisory group had obviously not completely given up on this meaning, "but now it seems that the advisory group is willing to take a break from this thought, which means that there is a ghost in this matter." ”

Veneto and Kaga looked at each other, and then looked at Funaken Min, who had a chopstick and a vegetable in his hand, "What do you say?" ”

"I wasn't sure about it, that's why I deliberately left the village and let Kaga go on that journey," Funakami turned his head to look at the two who were listening to his explanation, "Suppose you are now an advisor and want to expand the shrine but I and the four generations refuse, then what will you do?" ”

"Naturally, I have to find a way to force you and the fourth Hokage to nod," Veneto thought for a moment and replied without hesitation, "The advisory group has a certain decision-making power at the top of Konoha level, even if it is not for the benefits of expanding the shrine, the request put forward is just refuted by the two juniors......"

"They can't keep their faces on it."

Kaga nodded, obviously agreeing with Veneto's statement, "For the advisory group, their rights can also be said to be supreme, and once there is a precedent for the request to be denied, there will be a second and third time, which is intolerable for them. ”

Zhou Jianwen smiled with satisfaction, "But not long after everyone broke up unhappily, and each other was thinking about how to persuade each other, the advisory group was attacked......"

"What would you think if you were an advisor?"

Veneto didn't think much about it, and replied, "It must be someone who deliberately attacked and wanted to force the advisory group to give up the idea of expanding the shrine...... Hey? ”

As soon as she finished speaking, she immediately realized that something seemed to be wrong, so she spoke out in the next second.

"Exactly," Zhou Jianwen put down his chopsticks and took another sip of tea, before explaining to the two subordinates who had fallen into deep thought, "In other words, anyone would feel that this is forcing them to give up their purpose, let alone the advisory group that has lived a lot of years now?" ”

"But the first thing they suspected was neither the four generations nor me and the Mashu family, not only did they not point the finger at us, but they even gave up their original insistence," Funaka narrowed his eyes, revealing an expression that was very familiar to both Veneto and Kaga.

When he was still in the second world, Zhou Jianwen had such an expression when he was calculating the forty-sixth room in the center.

"It only says one thing......"

Veneto followed Zhou Jianwen's words with a clear answer, "They have a weak heart, or rather, they believe that someone will come to assassinate them. ”

"They don't necessarily believe that the mask of the 'root' that is used as evidence is real, but they do believe that someone in Konoha Village wants to do their best, whether it is for the sake of the Nine-Tails who was sealed. ”

If the people who went to assassinate them were really the "roots", then it was Bai Lan who wanted their lives: because the Nine-Tails were the real containers...... Or the fact that Ren Zhuli was a half-year-old child of the fourth generation, and not a fake container stored in them, Bai Lan was not unaware.

So Bai Lan didn't go for the Nine-Tails, but for their lives.

If the people who assassinated them were not the people of the "roots", then there were eight out of ten peopleNine is going for the Nine-Tails Container - in the case that no one in Konoha Village is willing to take over, and the advisory group has promised that they will take care of the Nine-Tails container before the shrine is built, this fake container is a certainty for themtime||Fried ||Play.

"Didn't the advisory group suspect you or the fourth Hokage?"

Zhou Jianwen immediately laughed wantonly when he heard this, "How could it be that he didn't have doubts?" It's just that they know the character of the four generations, and the dark part of the protection advisory group was also ruthless that day, if the assassins are really the four generations of people, then they can stop there. ”

"Whether it's real or dramatic, it's impossible for the advisory group not to see it? And if the Assassins were sent by me to deliberately intimidate them, in the opinion of the advisory team, I would have communicated with the four generations who were in the same camp as me beforehand, so it could not have been the person I sent. ”

It was precisely because he saw that he was serious at the moment and in the shadows that the advisory group that already had a ghost in his heart panicked.

"However, judging from the current situation, the advisory group still prefers that the assassin is a member of the "root" department," this is also the conclusion that Zhou Jian Min first came to after knowing the reaction of the advisory group, "Obviously, I want the dark department directly under the Hokage to investigate with the "root" department, but in fact, I still want to check the situation on the "root" side, right?" ”

Veneto deserved to be the one who had been following Zhou Jian Min's side, and she immediately summarized the key points from Zhou Jian Min's words.

"What does Lord Jian mean is that Bai Lan and the advisory group ......"

Zhou Jian Min put his right index finger in front of his mouth, motioned for Veneto not to continue, and then smiled mysteriously after Veneto was silenced.

"If you know, it's good."

Veneto pursed his lips, and after seeing that Zhou Jianwen was unwilling to delve deeper, he also kept his answer in his heart.

After finishing a lunch that should be called afternoon tea in terms of time, Zhou Jian Min had only rested for a while when she heard a report from Sang Ran, saying that the fourth generation had sent someone to invite her to the Hokage Building.

Thinking that his physical condition was not bad today, Zhou Jianwen didn't take Qiao, so he took Veneto with him.

After coming to the Hokage Building, what the four generations of Hokage Bo Feng Shui Gate wanted to say was really as Zhou Jian Wen imagined, and first expressed to Zhou Jian Wen that not long after she left Konoha, the advisory group was attacked-

Zhou Jianwen appropriately showed surprise at this, and after "hearing that" the advisory group was safe from Bo Feng Shuimen, he hurriedly made a gesture of relief.

Bo Feng Shuimen carefully looked at Zhou Jianwen's expression, although he didn't think that Zhou Jianwen might do something like "sending someone to assassinate the advisory group", but her previous prompt was too coincidental, but judging from the current situation......

Bo Feng Shuimen felt that maybe he was really thinking too much.

So he went on to express to Funakami that the advisory group had relented, and even urged him, as the Hokage, to start the construction of the shrine as soon as possible.

And Zhou Jianwen's response to this situation was also very straightforward and did not hide it at all, "Although I am a little sorry for the advisory group that was assassinated, it is also a good thing to be able to work in advance." ”

Bo Feng Shuimen nodded, in fact, he quite agreed with Zhou Jianwen's words, but he couldn't say it clearly because of Hokage's identity.

"Speaking of assassination......," Zhou Jian thought for a moment, "I have something to tell you here." ”

Although Zhou Jianwen's tone was indifferent, Bo Feng Shuimen had already seen the seriousness in her expression, he nodded and replied seriously, "Is it related to the accident you encountered on the day you returned to the village?" ”

The person in charge of guarding the door last night had already reported to him that the carriage of the Zhenzhou family was late, and although both of them said that there was nothing unusual about the Zhenzhou family's Jianwen at that time, the word "accident" appeared in the mouth of the Zhoujian Min, who had always been a last resort......

There's a bit of a thrilling flavor here.

"That's right," Zhou Jian Wen was not ambiguous, and directly admitted Bo Feng Shuimen's speculation, "Yesterday on my way back to the village, I met a ninja from Yuyin Village. ”

"Yuyin Village?" As the Hokage, Bo Feng Shuimen is naturally no stranger to this ninja village, "I remember that it was a ninja village located at the junction of the three kingdoms of earth, wind, and fire, and it was greatly implicated in the Second Ninja World War......"

Zhou Jian Min nodded, "The leader of Yuyin Village is Sanshoyu Hanzo, known as the "demigod", characterized by being cautious and never despising the enemy. ”

"But I remember that under the notice of Sanshoyu Hanzo, Yuyin Village should have been getting closer and closer to secrecy in recent years......

Bo Feng Shuimen frowned and thought for a while, "Maybe it was because I was implicated in the war and my vitality was greatly damaged, and now Yuyin Village rarely accepts assassination commissions from other countries as before, and even the entry control is becoming more and more strict." ”

He looked at Zhou Jian Min with some confusion, "Then that ninja from Rain Hidden Village is here......

"You're probably here to assassinate me," replied Zhou Jian lightly, as if she didn't realize what kind of crisis she had been through, judging by her tone and demeanor alone.

Bo Feng Shuimen's face changed greatly because of her words, "What?!!! ”

The days when she and Bo Feng Shuimen met were not short, and the other party, as a disciple of Jiraiya, had often been in contact with herself before becoming the fourth generation of Hokage, but seeing that Bo Feng Shuimen, who was calm and calm no matter what happened, was surprised because of his assassination, Zhou Jian Min was a little heartwarming at the same time.

She roughly told Bo Fengshuimen about the battle situation that day, and added her opinion at the end, "Although she is menacing and ruthless, but in my opinion, she may not really want my life." ”

It's all menacing and merciless, and I don't want your life......

Miss Jianwen: Is there really nothing wrong with your brain circuits?

As if seeing that Bo Feng Shuimen was complaining about himself in his heart, Zhou Jian Wen glanced at him, and continued, "Assassination is not to have the intention of making the other party die, as long as the goal is achieved, even if the target does not die, it can still be called assassination." ”

For example, that day she asked Kaga to sneak attack the advisory group.

"Then it should be called an attack, right," Bo Fengshuimen muttered quietly, seeing that Zhou Jianwen was staring at him without speaking, he quickly coughed a few times and changed the topic, "Then what is her purpose?" If that ninja from Rain Hidden Village didn't come to kill you, then what was her purpose in attacking you? ”

Zhou Jian Wen shook his head, "I didn't ask, of course, I don't think I can ask anything in the other party's state." ”

Bo Feng Shuimen didn't know Xiao Nan's identity, nor did he know Xiao's existence, but it didn't mean that she didn't know.

At that time, she pretended that she didn't know Xiao Nan just to better communicate with the other party, but judging from the results...... Zhou Jianwen couldn't tell if he had gained nothing.

Hearing Zhou Jianwen's answer, Bo Feng Shuimen nodded very understanding-no matter which village the ninja is, the first and most important thing is to keep his mouth tight, if he can't keep the secret, then he is not worthy of being an excellent ninja, so it is not surprising that Zhou Jianwen simply gave up asking questions.

Because even if you ask, it's useless.

"But I've also gained something useful," Zhou Jian Wen stood against the wave for a while, until he stared at him covered in hair, and then said leisurely, "The black-bottomed fire cloud pattern robe, that's the costume of the woman who came to attack me. ”

Bo Feng Shuimen tilted his head in confusion, "Is there anything special about that?" ”

It's just a robe, and as for staring at him so much that he almost suspects that it's a romantic debt he owes outsideβ€”though there is no such thing at allβ€”after all, the only thing he loves most is his wife, Kushina.

Zhou Jianwen didn't answer directly, but just stretched out his hand behind him, and Veneto immediately handed over the documents he was still preparing.

Zhou Jianwen, who got the document, directly handed it to Bo Feng Shuimen, and then motioned him to look, and as soon as Bo Fengshui Gate lowered his head, he saw a sketch drawn on the document - it was the robe with the black background fire cloud pattern that Zhou Jianwen had just mentioned.

I have to say......

The taste is so bad that even he dislikes it.

"Do you think a young and beautiful girl would wear such a strange dress for no reason?" As if seeing Bo Fengshuimen's dislike of this robe, Zhou Jianwen directly pointed out the strangeness in it, "Moreover, Yuyin Village is rainy all year round, and this design is incompatible with the climate there. ”

Bo Feng Shuimen nodded understandingly, "Yes, at least it should be equipped with a hat." ”

- Otherwise, how can you keep out the rain!

Veneto twitched the corners of her mouth, only to feel that the air seemed to be slightly distorted for a moment, she looked back and forth at Zhou Jian Min and Bo Feng Shuimen, who were criticizing the fire cloud robe, and suddenly felt a little glad that there were only three of them here.

If the others had seen the four generations of Hokage-sama and Manafune Stream-sama, there would have been this side...... I guess I fainted with fright.

The criticism between the two lasted for about four or five minutes, and after Zhou Jianwen and Bo Feng Shuimen had all stopped to drink water, Bo Feng Shuimen gathered his gaffe and continued with a solemn face, "So Miss Jian Wen is suspicious, this robe may be a symbol of some kind of organization?" ”

"I'm not sure for the time being, maybe it's just some high-level bad taste in Yuyin Village, but I think it's better not to ignore this."

She looked at Bo Feng Shuimen for a long time before finally sighing and adding, "After all, something like that happened in Konoha Village before. ”

The Nine-Tails incident has always been a pain in Bo Feng Shuimen's heart, not to mention the almost dying of Huangquan, almost unable to protect his wife who is in the weakest state, and having to seal the Nine Tails into the body of his newborn son, which makes Bo Feng Shuimen feel guilty when he looks at his wife and children to this day.

It seemed that he saw the forbearance of Bo Feng Shuimen, and Zhou Jian Wen sighed again, "The busiest time is almost over, you should spend more time with your family, you can't let Jiu Sinai take care of the children alone, especially the growth of boys cannot lack the guidance of their fathers." ”

Bo Fengshuimen nodded, and Zhou Jianwen continued, "If there is anything that needs my help, just say it, I have been raised in Zhenzhou's family for so many years, and my physical condition is not as bad as it was back then. ”

When Zhou Jian Wen said this, he promised to go out of the mountain when necessary.

Bo Feng Shuimon, who had wanted to let Zhou Jian Wen serve as his staff officer when he first took over as Hokage, was replaced by ease when he heard this, and he breathed a sigh of relief, "If necessary, I will definitely come back to you." ”

Bo Feng Shuimen also knew that Zhou Jianwen was not in good health, and it was good that she could promise to help when necessary, and Bo Feng Shuimen naturally would not think that she would be able to work full-time.

"In two days, when I'm well, I'll visit Kushina and Naruto again."

Funakami was in Naruto Uzumaki - even though Bo Feng Shuimen did not unfortunately pass away, this wife slave still gave his son the surname of his wife's maiden family - Funakami had visited him and Uzumaki Kushina shortly after he was born, but Kushina was in a state of cultivation at the time, so Funakami did not bother for too long.

As for after that...... Because of the winter, Zhou Jian Min never left the real boat house in the whole winter, and even Naruto's 100-day banquet was attended by Fuso and sent red envelopes.

Hearing Zhou Jianwen mention his wife and children, and it was not a heavy topic, the smile on Bo Feng Shuimen's face became more and more genuine, "That's really good, I think they will be very happy." ”

Just when the topic of Zhou Jian Wen and Bo Feng Shuimen had developed towards "the impact of quality education on the new generation of ninjas", there was a knock on the door outside, followed by the voice belonging to the Hokage's assistant.

"Then I won't bother you with your official business," Zhou Jianwen got up and said goodbye with a look in his eyes.

As soon as she took Veneto out the door, she saw a silver-haired teenager standing in the doorway and into the roomβ€”a young man who was no more than shoulder-high, wearing a cat-face mask on his face, and wearing a uniform costume of the dark part.

Of course, gender is judged by his skeleton and the sound of his voice when he knocks on the door.

Zhou Jianwen retracted her gaze with just one glance, and then walked towards the door of the building, and the corners of her mouth also hooked an inexplicable arc:

Kakashi Hachiki, Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha, plus Sakura Haruno, who is about to be born......

She suddenly had some expectations for the next seven classes.

However, Zhou Jianwen's good mood apparently didn't last long, as soon as she walked out of the door of the Hokage Building...... I saw a familiar figure slowly appear in my sight, and then walked in her direction with unhurried steps.

"Long time no see," said the man opposite, "Jianwen." ”
