In the early morning, the sun was shining, the shadows of the trees were swaying, and the thin light reflected in the room along the window.

Ling got up, holding his chin with one hand and looking at the various patterns of light on the floor, thinking about the mystery of the writing wheel.

In fact, after being a ninja for so many years, Ling already has his own accurate biological clock, and the slightest different movement around him will wake him up, but not usually, the bell in the Fire Temple in the early morning made him realize that he was not in Konoha after waking up.

Lifting the thin quilt on the bed, Ling came to the window, and looked through the window at the monks outside who were either cultivating or cleaning the monastery, and the calm and comfortable scene made Ling's heart even more depressed.

"The Uchiha clan has feelings that no one can discover and care about."

"When the Uchiha people who know love lose that love, that love will be replaced by stronger hatred."

"And the Uchiha people who have lost their love will have a special chakra in their brains and act on the optic nerve, causing changes in their eyes!"

"That eye is the 'eye of the mind'"

"That is, the writing wheel eye"

Savoring the words of the second Hokage, Ling pondered the meaning of writing wheels in his heart.

According to the second Hokage, the reason why Ling awakened the Sharingan at the time of crossing was not because he thought that his heart fluctuated greatly because of the crossing, but because he understood what he had lost and what it meant.

In the real world, whether it is a country or a society, although there are all kinds of problems and contradictions, it is undeniable that people can live in a relatively peaceful and legal environment, and Ling Ling, who first crossed into the Hokage world, is terrified, because this is the world of war! It was precisely because he felt the horror of the war that Ling felt the rarity of the original world peace, because of the loss of the comfortable peace, the struggling Ling awakened the Uchiha's blood inheritance limit. As he participated in the war and threw himself into the killing and battlefield, his feelings and thoughts for peace became stronger and stronger, which is why his writing wheel eye gradually improved!

However, the sad but fortunate thing is that human beings are the kind of creatures that will quickly integrate into the bad environment and adjust themselves, after the initial uneasiness and hesitation, Ling has become a ninja who can face his own death from the inside, war and blood will no longer make him afraid, and peace will no longer let him evoke the feelings of the real world, and because of this reason, his writing wheel eye has encountered a bottleneck of improvement.

Ling is different from Itachi or Zhishui, as an orphan, Ling is an extremely selfish person. He doesn't have a brother, and he can't feel the kind of blood love between brothers, so he can't awaken the kaleidoscope Sharingan like Itachi because of the possibility of losing Sasuke. In the same way, he doesn't have a mind like stopping the water, in order to feel the loss of peace and stimulate his eyes to awaken the kaleidoscope, and now by Ling's side, the only person who may let him have a kaleidoscope is his brother in blood, Uchiha Retsu!

It's a pity that Ling, who doesn't have that brotherly bond, may not be able to get the Kaleidoscope Writing Wheel Eye even if he kills Lie. Because he is a traverser, Ling is out of step with the surroundings, and for Lie, Ling is more grateful than the warmth between brothers. Even if Ling kills Lie, maybe he will be sad and blame himself, but if he doesn't experience love, he won't lose that love. Besides, in Ling's heart, what about killing the Lie Awakening Kaleidoscope? Kaleidoscope writing wheel eye will reduce vision, and if the kaleidoscope without blood can be transplanted to him, sooner or later he will lose his light!

Things seem to have entered a dead knot here, Ling longs for a kaleidoscope to write wheels, but he doesn't have that understanding and mind, if he gives up, he is doomed to a mediocre life and may become cannon fodder! Even if Ling learned more ninjutsu and accumulated more combat experience, the result was that Itachi was killed in seconds like Orochimaru encountered. Maybe he could become a strong man without relying on the Blood Inheritance Limit like the fourth generation Hokage, but Ling's knowledge in the field of spatial ninjutsu was nothing, and he couldn't imagine that he could develop a space ninjutsu suitable for himself on the basis of a blank space! Moreover, the four generations of Hokage are dead, and the Flying Thunder God Technique has been lost, even if Ling wants to pick up ready-made ones!

"There's no way back, but," irritated, Ling grabbed the wooden bar on the window, his eyes confused, restless, and restless

Discover love, get love, and then lose love, and it has to be the kind of loss that hurts to the marrow!

"The Uchiha's Blood Inheritance Limit is a complete curse." Spell of Humble.

A little powerless and mocking, Ling pushed the door out, the shredded sunlight outside made people feel warm and comfortable, and a monk in the distance was carefully watering a tree in this courtyard, and he looked so calm and comfortable.

"Huh." Ling chuckled, put away his complicated thoughts, and watched with interest as the monk slowly poured spoonful after spoonful of clear water into the tree pit.

Finally finishing his work, the monk got up and picked up the bucket and walked towards the outside of the courtyard, turning around in an instant and letting Ling see a thin scar on the monk's left cheek.

"Wait a minute." Ling let out a soft scream, and the scar made a person in his memory leap into his mind.

The monk was stunned for a moment, gently put down the bucket, moved slowly and calmly, turned around, folded his hands and bowed his head silently.

The teleportation technique flashed, and Ling appeared in front of the monk.

"It's really an accident" Ling's voice was low, and his tone was surprised, "I didn't expect that someone who had not heard from him for 2 years would actually become a monk in the Fire Temple."

The monk didn't feel any emotion when he heard this, but slowly lowered his closed hands and raised his head to look at Ling Buyu.

"Sure enough, it's you." Ling raised his eyebrows, tilted his head slightly and looked at the monk named Nanye, "2 years ago, there was no news in another mission, everyone thought you were dead, and your name was still engraved on the memorial tablet, I didn't expect it"

Nan Ye was silent when he heard this, his black eyes were as unfluctuating as an ancient well, and the thin scar on his side face showed a hideous pale pink color in the sunlight.

Even his personality has changed so much Ling shook his head, turned to the side in the direction of his room and said, "If you don't mind, let's talk about it, after all, we have performed many tasks on the battlefield together." ”

"Is it necessary?" Nan Ye took a light breath in silence slightly, and finally answered Ling's call.

"I'm a little curious, after being called the second Hokage, Konoha's most talented water escape ninja actually worked in this place, what made you depressed?"

Hearing this, Nanye lowered his head, slowly looked at his hands, and said in a weak tone: "That's all in the past, there is no Konoha Kanshino Nanye now, and some are just ordinary monks from the Fire Temple." ”

"Whether it's in the past or in the past" Ling interrupted Nan Ye's refusal, and said softly with reminiscence: "As a person who has lived and died on the battlefield, there is nothing wrong with chatting." ”

Kusuno was silent

In the room, the two knelt down at a tea table, Ling gently poured two cups of tea, and with a slow and delicate movement with a hint of elegance, brought one of them to Nan Ye's side.

"It's so nostalgic." Looking at Ling's movements, Nan Ye recalled: "At that time, I was appointed to form a team with a 12-year-old child to go to the battlefield, I was very curious about how capable that child who drank water leisurely and freely, but I didn't expect to see that kind of artistic indifference two years later." ”

In his previous life, Ling loved the art of tea, so he paid more attention to Chinese tea culture, but in the world of Naruto, Ling's nondescript tea ceremony was quite appreciated.

"How else?" Bringing his cup of tea to his side, Ling Suoran shook his head and said, "No matter what, the task must be carried out, since you can't run away, why don't you let yourself relax?" No matter how tight the nerves are, they won't solve anything. ”

"Not bad mentality." Nan Ye nodded, like praise and disregard, in a subtle tone.

"There's no need for boring chatter, let's talk about you, why don't you go back to Konoha? Instead, he became a monk here."

"Nothing." Picking up the teacup and taking a sip gently, Kumano's face was hazy with the water vapor floating from the teacup, "I'm just tired of it"

"Tired?" Ling looked at Nan Ye playfully, and said with a slight mockery: "If you are tired, you can choose to retire, why do you hide your whereabouts and become a monk?" After a pause, Ling looked at Nanye's hands, "Look at those hands, the hand that originally held the kunai and shuriken actually left a layer of calluses because of the wooden barrel, and the flexibility of the fingers has also been reduced to the unbelievable Cheng Dù, can you make a seal in a second now?" ”

"So what?" Kusano's tone remained unchanged, "I'm no longer a ninja, whether it's a ninja or a seal, it has nothing to do with me at all." After saying that, Nan Ye's words changed, "I know about your coming here, although I don't know the reason, but I'm afraid you have to stay here." ”

"I don't have any plans to meet Konoha for the time being, so I'm going to stay here for two years if nothing else," Ling glanced at Nanye in surprise and shook his head, "It's still you, why did you give up the ninja profession?" ”

"I said it, but I'm tired of it." Looking at the teacup in his hand, Nanye's tone was fluttering.

"It looks like we can't communicate." Ling shook his head, glanced at Nan Ye with some undeniable eyes, and then said, "I'm just curious to see the old man here, since you don't want to say it, then when I see your sister in the future, ask her." ”

"Sister" Nanye's tone sank, and the hand holding the teacup shook slightly. Ling looked at Nan Ye's sudden reaction in surprise.

"I don't have a sister for a long time"

Ling was stunned. Nanye's sister Ling has seen, called Lian, not the kind of beautiful but beautiful temperament girl, a few years older than Ling, always like to pinch Ling's cheeks when they meet, is a unique girl who is easy to remember.

"What happened?" Ling asked in surprise.

Kusuno didn't answer Ling's question, slowly put down the teacup, and his voice rose and fell steadily, "Uchiha Ling, you sue me, what is the meaning of ninja existence?" ”

Ling was stunned when he heard this, but Nan Ye didn't wait for Ling's reaction, and continued to speak a little stiffly: "They say that ninjas are there to protect their relatives and protect the village, but what about my sister!" Isn't she a civilian in Konoha? Why didn't anyone protect her?! ”

"What the hell is going on?" Ling frowned and guessed.

"Do you remember the evacuation mission from that mine in the north of the village two years ago?" After calming down, Kusuno explained in a low voice.

Nanye's sister is not a ninja, their brother and sister have no relatives except for a relative outside the village, the battle line has been maintained in the border area during the war, but Yun Yin above the Fire Country suddenly increased his offensive and entered the interior of the Fire Country, at that time, Nanye's sister was at that relative's house, Nanye was in the border area of the village and Ling and several ninjas on a mission, because Yun Yin's sudden change Konoha gave the order to retreat, and the villages surrounding the mine in the north of the Fire Country were reduced to a scorched earth, Kusuno's sister is also among them

"During the war, what did Lian do when she didn't stay in the village and ran outside?!" After hearing Nan Ye's speech, Ling asked in a deep voice.

"Because it's a war, Lian doesn't want to lose the only family she has besides me! Originally, she wanted to issue a mission to bring people back, but all the ninjas in the village went to the front line, and those who stayed behind also had missions, and no one helped her at all! ”

"That's how it is," Ling murmured.

"Other people's relatives are relatives, but isn't my sister a relative?! The village issued an order to retreat, and my sister died there! I was born and died on the battlefield to protect the so-called village, the so-called relatives, but why did my sister have no one to protect me? In addition to not protecting but also abandoned? That's what they mean by ninja?! ”

Nanye's feelings were unstable, and in the end, he yelled loudly, and the original indifference was long gone.

"I became a ninja for the so-called protection, but I can't even protect my sister, so does it make sense to be a ninja?"

"So, you can't stay in the village and face the upper echelons of Konoha instead, but come here in hiding" Finally, Ling summarized the reason why Kusuno was in the Fire Temple.

"To me, the meaning of ninja is just a joke" Closing his eyes and getting up gently, Kusuno walked to the door of the room and looked at the tree he had watered and said softly: "The glory I have received, the blood I have experienced, the protection I have done with my life, there is no point in it"

"I love this country, I grew up in the village, I can't convince myself to fight against the village leaders to destroy the stability, all I can do is give up the ninja profession to end the rest of my life"

Leaving a word, Kusuno took a step and left the room. He didn't care if Ling would tell the Konoha higher-ups that he was still alive, and Nanye, who had already given up the meaning of life, didn't care about anything.

"Is this what love is called?"

Looking at Nan Ye's back as he left, Ling muttered in a complicated tone.

Being able to make a powerful ninja fall to such a point that he completely gave up the powerful power he had as a ninja what happened to him Ling felt powerless in addition to sighing because

"I can't seem to get this kind of love for two, three, or even ten years"

Closing his eyes, Ling remembered the figure of his brother Lie and clenched his fists lightly
