Chapter 35: It's Strange
Morning.
Qingming leaves Konoha for the first time.
Alone, there is no partner, no one to follow behind to spy on him, and even Hinata Hinata has never thought of sending someone to protect him, a friend of the Hyuga family.
Because there's no need for that.
Although it is said that the ninja world is constantly in turmoil, it is now a time of peace, the country of fire is a big country, and there is the existence of the Konoha Ninja Village, so the country can be said to be very safe.
The big countries don't go to war, and the chaos is basically only those small countries.
What robbers, bandits and the like, it is rare to see them in the territory of a big country, and if they occasionally pop up, they will be quickly exterminated, and the five ninja villages are not decorations.
The five ninja villages are relatively independent.
But nominally, accepting the rule of the daimyo of various countries, the succession of the Hokage also requires the appointment of the daimyo, although it is generally only a nod of approval to the heir.
It doesn't matter.
After leaving Konoha, he first walked slowly for a long time, and after confirming that no one was following behind, he immediately took out a magic talisman from his body, which was able to hurry quickly.
He can fly.
But it's daytime, so it's too big to fly directly in the sky, and if you're not careful, you'll be seen, although as long as you fly a little higher, it won't matter.
But there was no need for that.
The Land of Fire as a whole is a plain, the environment is very good, and many places are undeveloped and inaccessible forests, which can be regarded as a natural treasure trove with many good things.
For example, medicinal herbs are old enough and sufficient.
When Qingming came out this time, he was looking for medicinal materials, but that was just an excuse, he actually wanted to find a quiet place to practice well.
In the past few years, he has studied the Taoist scriptures and ninjas, which has given him a lot of gains.
A few days ago, because I felt that my strength that had not improved for a long time seemed to be showing signs of a breakthrough, so I made the move of leaving Konoha.
It's not okay to break through in Konoha.
Although Konoha at this time did not have a ninja who practiced the immortal mode, so he could not sense the natural energy, but the ghost knows if the breakthrough will cause any movement to make people notice.
If you really want to do that, you still have to leave Konoha.
After all, he is not an ordinary person, and he has been pretending to be an ordinary person to stay in Konoha, and it is useless to say anything when the time comes, Konoha will definitely arrest people and torture them.
Of course they can't catch it.
However, this is not the crux of the problem, once the key is exposed, Qingming will have to leave, and maybe he will have to be hunted down in the future, which is a very troublesome thing.
If that's the case, what about the little girls?
Let's not talk about that.
In short, for the sake of safety, Qingming came out of Konoha Village, and then went headlong into an inaccessible forest, found a safe place to start retreat and practice.
……
Practice.
It's usually meditation.
Communicating with the nature of heaven and earth, absorbing natural energy into spiritual power, strengthening one's own body, and more importantly, the comprehension of the "Tao", which is everything.
Ninjas are different.
Their cultivation is to constantly train and refine chakra, and generally the more chakra and the better their physical fitness, the higher their combat effectiveness.
Of course, it also depends on physical arts, ninjutsu, blood inheritance limits and other aspects.
Let's not talk about that.
Ninjas and Taoists have different cultivation directions, ninjas generally pursue more powerful power, and Taoists pursue the perception of "Dao", there is nothing to compare.
Qingming is a Taoist priest.
In the past, he had no interest in the "Dao", and no one instructed him in this regard, so he just cultivated spiritual power, practiced various Taoist techniques, and so on.
He's very talented.
Whether it is orthodox Taoism, talisman alchemy, fortune-telling, or even curses, he can quickly master it, and even travel through the world.
It's a space-based skill, and you can use it once you learn it, and it doesn't have much to do with strength.
Let's not talk about that.
In terms of "Dao", Qingming is also talented, no one to guide him, just studying the Tao Sutra, and in just a few years, he also has some understanding, so as to make a breakthrough.
Talented?
There's no object to compare, so it's hard to say, but it's not much worse when you think about it, after all, there are many people who have nothing to gain in their lives and end up depressed.
Qingming is lucky.
……
Konoha.
Nai Ho Bridge Coffee Shop.
"One cup to refresh the mind, two cups to never get tired, and three cups to live forever."
This is the slogan.
Naturally, what is advertised is the coffee shop's signature coffee "Meng Po Soup", but people in this world do not know much about Nai He Bridge and Meng Po Soup.
Hinata Hanabi didn't know either.
She came to the coffee shop with Hinata Natsu, but she just sat at the counter with the menu, looking at the line on the cover in a daze, and seemed to be thinking.
Then look at Hinata Natsu.
"Asha."
"Hanabi-sama."
"I want this."
She pointed to the Meng Po Soup Coffee, which was printed directly on the cover.
But Hinata refused.
"No, Hanabi-sama."
"Why?"
"Kids can't drink coffee, do you want to order something else, milk? Or fruit juice? ”
“……”
Hinata Hanabi didn't speak.
She couldn't figure out why children couldn't drink coffee. Why is milk good to drink but not coffee? Is it true that only white liquids can be given to small children?
Don't understand.
But she didn't ask, just put the menu down, got down from its position, and looked over the stairs.
Look at Hinata Natsu again.
"Asha, can I go up there and have a look?"
"Above?"
Hinata Natsu looked up.
Of course, only the ceiling can be seen here, but it doesn't matter.
"Yes."
She nodded.
Above is the second floor, and even above is the place where Qingming rests, but she thought that Hinata Hanabi just wanted to go to the second floor to have a look, so she didn't refuse, and she didn't follow.
Hinata Hanabi walked to the second floor by herself.
The environment here is better, but there is nothing special in addition, not even guests, so I stood at the staircase and looked at it a few times, and then continued to walk up.
Third floor.
Up up is the living room, which has nothing but the necessary furniture and looks a little empty.
She was the first guest.
Except for her, even Tian Tian and Hinata Hinata have never come up here.
Nothing special.
Hinata Hanabi only turned around in the living room for a while, and did not enter Qingming's room, but found that the door of the study was open, hesitated, and walked in directly.
There are a lot of books in the study, neatly arranged on the shelves, all arranged according to the rules, without the slightest confusion, and it is easy to find out what books you want to find.
"Brother Qingming loves to read?"
Tilting his head in thought.
Of course, she didn't figure it out, anyway, she hadn't seen Qingming read, because every time she saw Qingming, it was at her home, and it wasn't a time to read leisurely.
Didn't think much about it.
The study is a bit big, except for the window, the surrounding walls are full of bookshelves, and there is also a bookshelf in the middle, and there is a desk on the window with paper and pens on it.
Walked around the shelves, then stopped, tilting his head to look at a few books under the desk.
"It's weird."
She thought so.
Obviously, all the books are neatly arranged, but these few books are thrown under the desk, are they deliberately thrown away, or did they fall into them and didn't find out?
I thought about it for a moment.
Then she walked over to the desk and squat down, and took out all the books inside, there was some dust on them, but very little, and it didn't affect her from seeing the title on the cover.
"Intimacy...... Heaven? ”
Tilt your head.
Such a title makes it impossible for her to guess the content inside, unlike those on the bookshelf, what history, biography and the like, you can roughly guess the content by looking at the title.
So what kind of book is this?
"Hmmm......"
I thought about it for a moment.
Then he put all the books on his desk, took the toilet paper on the side to wipe off the dust, and then sat down in a chair, holding the book and reading.
She is literate, although it is a little difficult to watch, but it does not have much impact, and she can still understand the content.
Probably.
