Chapter 19: The Assassination of the Monk

The mountain and the old monk looked at the two villains in front of him with some amusement.

"It's okay, it's okay, since Sora can trust you."

After saying that, he waved his hand and motioned for Yan Yan and Sora to sit down.

didn't wait to sit down, Yan Yan couldn't wait to grab the voice:

"Master, is there no other way? If you go, you may be ......."

"Alright...... Okay......"

The old monk Shan and the old monk had obviously made up their minds, and raised their hands to interrupt Yan Yan, and there was really no better way.

Picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said slowly:

"Needless to say, I know what you think, judging from the entire ninja world, there are very few people who can live to my age, and if I can exchange the land and land with this remnant body, I am satisfied."

As he spoke, he poured a cup of tea for Yan Yanye, slowly pushed it over, and then said:

"As for calling you here at night, I want to talk about your physical affairs, this may be my last confession to you."

"Master......"

The mist in the scarlet eye sockets gradually rose. The senior brother is in a whirlpool, and the master wants to sacrifice his life for another life, but he can't intervene.

Such a feeling of powerlessness made Yan Yan resentful of the weakness of his strength.

Shan and the old monk touched the teacup that he had pushed over, motioned for Yan Yan to drink quickly, shook his head and said:

"There is no need to be sad, we old people, we have been fighting and killing all our lives, compared to dying on the sickbed, the battlefield sleep is the real destination. What's more, for the peace of the Fire Country, it has always been a long-cherished wish of my Fire Temple, so you should be happy for me. ”

Seeing Yan Yan pick up the teacup, he took a sip, and his blood-red eyes slowly put away the mist. The mountain and the old monk smiled with satisfaction:

"In the past three years, your cultivation has progressed rapidly, your body has become stronger and stronger, and your physical skills have become better and better, which shows that you and I are not wrong to use the talents of the immortal clan to transform spiritual energy into meridians and lock the body energy to refine cells, but recently I found a small side effect, you have to be mentally prepared."

"Mental preparation? I didn't find any side effects......"

Yan Yan sucked on his reddish nose and looked at the mountain and the old monk suspiciously.

"Your body's growth rate has slowed down......"

Shan and the old monk said with some embarrassment, after all, the next generation of the Changhe family may not appear until several years later.

"Huh?!" Yan Yan screamed in amazement and glanced back and forth at his body, especially his little brother.

"It may be that the body's energy is repeatedly compressed in your body's cells, and while your body is strengthened, the speed of cell division is getting slower and slower."

Shan and the old monk looked at Yan Yan who was a little sluggish as he spoke, in his opinion, the little apprentice who had always been a little adult could show such an expression, but it was quite rare.

"You're six years old this year, but your body hasn't grown much compared to when you were four. Master is going to leave tomorrow, so it's up to you to figure out the specific solution in the future. ”

Yan Yan wanted to cry and looked at the mountain and the old monk without tears.

"No, I'll never grow up?"

The old monk said with an embarrassed face:

"This ...... Not really, it's just slow growth, and the exact growth rate may depend on how quickly you refine your body's cells. ”

"This ...... All right...... That's all there is to it. ”

Yan Yan was really going to cry this time, looked at his little brother hiddenly, and sighed secretly:

"Brother, this time it's really a good time to die before you get out of school......"

Looking back at the empty space that was dozing off little by little,

"Boy, in a sense, you're happier than me. ”

"Ahem. There is one more thing, I think Changhe also told you. ”

The old monk added tea to the teacup to hide his embarrassment, and said softly:

"You're going back to Konoha in a while, after all, that's your home......"

"It's true that my grandfather told me when he came here half a year, but at this time, how can I ......?"

Yan Yan said anxiously, but was interrupted by the master before he finished speaking.

The old monk waved his hand, refilled Yan Yan with another cup of tea, and said with a pleased smile:

"Silly boy, I know your intentions, but you are not a Buddha, since you are a human being, you have your own fate, you should do what you want to do, to protect the people you want to protect. The Temple of Fire won't be in chaos without the three of us, hehe, stinky boy, don't take yourself too seriously. ”

"Whew...... yes......"

Yan Yan was silent for a while, his hands folded and looked at the Buddhist shrine not far from the meditation room, his eyes were sad, and he muttered as if comforting himself:

"There are eight sufferings in life: birth, old age, sickness, death, love and separation, resentment for a long time, can't ask for it, and can't let go. Life is created by oneself, the phase is born from the heart, everything in the world is incarnated, the heart does not move, everything does not move, the heart does not change, everything does not change......"

The old monk looked surprised, and after savoring it, he suddenly laughed and said:

"Hahahaha, good boy, not bad, yes, you should have listened to the land to let you become a monk, life is eight hardships, the heart remains the same, everything remains the same, hahaha, everything remains the same."

"Master......"

Yan Yan knew that he could no longer stop the mountain and the old monk from going to the Daimyo's Mansion, and said in a sad whisper:

"The disciple will wait for the news of your return in Konoha ......"

"Good, good, good boy, it's long overdue, hahahaha."

The mountain and the old monk laughed with relief.

"Stinky boy, don't underestimate your master......"

“......”

The jade rabbit gradually fell, and the dense dark fog obscured the starry sky.

The night was already dark, and then they chatted for a while, and when they saw Shan and the old monk yawning, Yan Yan whispered to the master to retire, slowly closed the door of the mountain and the old monk's room, and returned to the meditation room of the two next door with emptiness.

Sora, who had already been sleepy, saw that the bed opposite was hot and lay down, so he closed his eyes with peace of mind and fell asleep.

Yan Yan tossed and turned, looking at the foggy night sky outside the window, his mind was chaotic, although he promised the mountain and the old monk to return to Konoha to wait for his news, but how could Yan Yan not know that this was just the master's words to comfort him.

"I'm afraid that Master is really going to never go back."

Bursts of sadness welled up in my heart, my thoughts were mixed, and I suddenly heard the sound of the mountain and the old monk going out in the fog, and a tear fell heavily on the pillow.

The next day, before dawn, Yan Yan rushed to the meditation room of the mountain and the old monk, and Sora followed.

"Sure enough......"

The incense in the shrine has long been burned out, and in front of the statue of the Thousand-armed Guanyin is a folded black monk's robe, on which is placed a letter left by the mountain and the old monk to Yan Yan.

"The Buddha said: From love to worry, from love to fear. If you are separated from your loved one, you will have no worries or fears. However, I abandon it! ”

Yan Yan opened the letter heavily, and read softly from side to side.

After hearing this, he asked Yan Yan in confusion:

"Senior brother, what does this mean? Is this the host gone? ”

"yes...... Master went to pursue the Buddha in his heart...... The meaning of this phrase is ......"

I should be happy for Master.

Yan Yan sighed secretly and curled the corners of his mouth to explain to the air:

"The Buddha once said: Because of love, there is concern, and because of love, there is worry and panic. When there is no love in the heart, there is no concern for coming and going, and there is no worry or panic. Master said, "I'll fuck it." ”

"Huh?"

Thinking back to the mountain and the old host, he had always looked like a virtuous monk, how could he say such a thing, and he was a little dumbfounded for a while.

"Hehehe......"

And Yan Yan chuckled and unfolded the black monk's robe, and slowly put it on his body, but it was a little bigger, thinking that the master had already prepared it for him, but he didn't expect Yan Yan to not grow much taller in the past few years.

Gently folded the letter paper, cherished it in the front placket of the monk's robe, and Yan Yan walked out of the meditation room with the air.

"Really, I'm all a handful old, and I'm still so second-class, black monk's robe, Master is reminding me not to forget his early title."

Yan Yan chuckled as he walked:

"Yes, how can it be so easy to die by assassinating the precept-breaking monk under the seat of the thousand-armed Guanyin."

"Hahaha."

Yan Yan, who was in a better mood, laughed and left the backyard.

Seeing that he was in a good mood, Sora also showed a big smile and followed closely.
