In the twilight, the falling flowers blew across the courtyard of the mansion, and the bamboo water dispenser in the courtyard occasionally made a crisp sound of landing, and the great elder sat on the ground, and there was a white petal floating on the pale cyan tea liquid in the tea bowl, but he didn't care. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The smell of the flowers is clean, and the wind at night is equally clear and clean.

The night of the flying flowers has a certain visual resemblance to the snowy night, but it is still much more beautiful than the snowy night.

Many, many years have passed since that snowy night, and the gentle woman, who will dress in fine clothes and light makeup, and accompany him to admire the moon until late, is no longer around. The only son of the two of them, Shinya, has long reached the age where he can take charge on his own, and has become the strongest ninja among the balanced younger generation.

Just the kid I picked up on that snowy night.

Then there was a long sigh. He looked up at the sky, a clear and cloudless night sky dotted with stars.

Take the starry sky as the curtain and the flying flowers as the curtain.

Drinking tea alone in the court, he lowered his head and sipped shallowly, closed his eyes to feel the tea smell lingering between his lips and teeth, the tea was fragrant and bitter, in such a night with a unique smell of flying flowers, there seemed to be a sense of quiet loneliness, he suddenly raised his head, abruptly-

"You're here."

The Great Elder looked at a place in the courtyard and put the teabowl back on the tray, where he could see only the shadow of a tree with a delicately cut outline, but there was no trace of anyone hiding, and the night was so quiet that the sound of falling flowers and the soft tinkling of water in the courtyard could be heard clearly.

Moreover, the inner courtyard of the mansion of the Great Elder of the Equilibrium Sect was definitely not something that ordinary people could sneak into.

It's not because of the sound, it's not because the eyes catch something—

But the Great Elder always set his sights in that direction.

In the shadows of the trees, a black shadow gradually peeled away, and it was from the shadow on the ground...... The thing, like a wet baby born from its mother's womb, was covered in slimy amniotic fluid, and a black liquid as ink flowed down the surface of the peeled shadow and fell back into the shadows of the trees on the ground, as if it had fallen silently into a deep pool.

From behind the tree stepped a humanoid figure.

It had no flesh and blood on its body, just a shadow, and the surface of its body was swirling with an ominous black qi, which itself was also made of this shapeless black qi.

"I knew you'd come." The Great Elder said.

"Master looks fine." The shadow spoke, but the silence spoke.

"You're here to get that?"

"Master still knows everything."

"If you want to take it, take it. That thing is with me, not anywhere else. ”

The shadow nodded, "I can sense where it is, but today, I'm here to drink tea with Master." ”

There was a faint outline between the black qi, as if an entity had been generated in it, and then the black qi dissipated in an instant like the morning mist after the sun had risen, revealing the young body beneath it.

The tight-fitting ninja suit clearly outlined his muscles, and he had no armor on his body and no weapons in his hands.

What caught my eye was a head of silver-white hair. Not many people have this rare hair color, and in Ionia, the legend of the evil spirit is always silver-haired, so those with silver hair are also considered a bad omen. Ominous silver-white hair blocked his eyes, but it couldn't hide the sharp and determined gaze.

"Long time no see, robbery."

……

"Look, look at it, that kid is silver-haired."

"Be careful, that's a symbol of the Calamity!"

"No, he's one of the Great Elder's inner disciples...... Nine times out of ten, the Eye of Twilight will be chosen by the Great Elder's inner chamber disciples. ”

"You don't think you've forgotten to be cautious, are you? He is also the inner disciple of the Great Elder, and he is his own flesh and blood, and the eye of twilight is such an important position, so naturally he belongs to it, how can he give it to that kind of weirdo? ”

"That's right, that's right, after all, Senior Brother Shen is so good, and this time it's the first place! Ah, I'm already a genius, and I'm still so good-looking......"

"Hey, don't be a nymphomaniac."

"Huh, huh? Over there, over there, over there! It's Senior Brother Shen! ”

Silver-haired teenagers made their way through the crowd in the opposite direction, and young boys and girls crowded to push and shove each other, flocking to the bulletin board of the dojo. The words of private discussion did not make his face show a little reciprocal expression, and he secretly hoped in his heart that he could really look calm and quiet on the surface.

It's not the first time, robbery.

He told himself. Radical actions either make people more alienated and afraid of themselves, or they will attract more ridicule, like the angry barking of a defeated dog.

He leaped to his feet, his ninja energy gathering beneath his feet, turning into the power that leaped from treetop to treetop, and he moved forward quickly, the leaves rustling past his ears.

As usual, he was going to practice in the back mountain of the Equilibrium Sect's dojo, where there was his secret base.

It was a ruined temple that had been abandoned for a long time, the outer walls of the rock were covered with moss, and the canopy of trees growing wantonly in the courtyard almost obscured the entire temple, and it was no longer visible that they had discovered this secret base by chance.

There was a hole in the outer wall, small and hidden, but just enough for the boy's stature to enter.

With a shake of his palm, Kunai appeared like a magic spell, slid into his fingers, he pulled his feet and ran, and Kunai flew out from his fingers.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Three short bangs rang out in quick succession, and three kunai pierced into the trunk of the tree, separated by almost the same distance.

"That's good. It's progressing again, and it's commendable! The black-haired girl with a ponytail stepped out from behind the door of the ruined temple, her steps as light as if they were floating in the clouds.

"Sister Akali." He bowed his head politely, with a hint of deliberate distancing, but it was a pity that the girl had not been a fuel-efficient lamp since they had met.

"I knew that as soon as the results of the exam came out, you would come here to practice. What's wrong? Who bullied you? Little ~ junior ~ brother, come on, laugh. ”

The girl with the ponytail raised a pair of cold hands and pinched his expressionless cheeks, and the girl tried to arrange the cold and hard facial features into a smiling face, but it turned out to be a crying and laughing look.

"Hey, Sister Akali, is it fun?"

"Hey, really, laugh at it, I'm still a child, I have to pretend to be a bitter adult. I've got a bento for you. The girl's face was full of disgust, but she still took a tight lunch box from a cloth bag.

The smell overflows from the heavy sauce and is a combination of rice and yakiniku chicken nuggets, and the dark rich sauce is poured over the white tender chicken and pearl-like rice.

"Thank you, senior sister."

Akali watched him sit down to eat, but his heart was not soothed, for his body was tense like a bow ready to fire, as if surrounded by hounds, and he realized that he was a beast at the end of his life.

He was still a child, but he didn't feel like a child anymore, everything in the child's world was too straightforward, and the children instinctively got close to the black-haired child like themselves, and kept the word of the adult away from this silver-haired freak.

As a result, he became too silent and devoted most of his time to ninjutsu.

He's not the kid who can only wipe his tears and shout "Wait and see, I'll definitely become the strongest ninja and become the eye of twilight".

She knew this, but she didn't know, because his mood was always hidden in the silver hair that often obscured her eyes.

For many years, he has been trying his best to prove himself, but this kind of proof will only make him enter the sight of more people with silver hair, and then taste that strange gaze again.

However, as long as you can become the strongest ninja in your generation and then become the eye of twilight, then everything will be fine.

Twilight's Eye is the strongest ninja and the most revered ninja, the dream of every ninja, and that title itself is a ninja god-like existence.

Twilight Eyes, the first silver-haired Twilight Eye of the Balance Sect.

In such a balanced manner, and even in the whole island of Ionia, no one will ever look at the silver-haired people discriminately.

It was his dream.

It's just that he has an opponent --

"Shen, you're finally here. Slow to die! Hurry up, hurry up, the bento for you is almost cold. ”
