Chapter 42: Eternal Life Can't Save Ninjas
The shopping of the two continued.
Almost every few dozen steps, Xunyi would make a fuss, mostly surprised by something strange.
For example, the special product culture of the country of grass includes baked cakes, soy milk, fried dough sticks, and so on. In fact, when she walked down this street, she ate two-thirds of the money she was carrying.
Regarding the questions that the little girl doesn't understand, Orochimaru will also patiently explain them to her one by one.
Uneducated? It doesn't matter, everyone has never been educated.
Only knowledge can distinguish between high and low.
After walking all morning, tired of walking, the two came to a street bench and sat down.
"How so?"
Xunyi burped, and made her a little tired all the way.
"I think you know a lot." The little girl showed a somewhat confused expression, "Orochimaru, you seem to be a little different from what I imagined. Actually, I don't really understand your status, strength, and wealth in Konoha...... You've got almost everything that any ordinary person wants, and what else are you not satisfied with? Why do you want to hurt someone's life, and why...... And do all those evil experimental research? ”
Xunyi remembered the past, when she was seven or eight years old when she was a fledgling ninja, her family assigned her a C-class mission.
The employer is a small entrepreneur who needs to hire ninjas to assassinate his competitors. This should not be allowed in Konoha because it hurts the lives of ordinary people and violates the "will of fire" taught by the ninja school, so she refused the mission without even thinking about it.
However, a few days later, Xunyi accidentally learned that this task had been completed.
It's a girl in the family, Xunyi knows this girl, held her hand when she was a child, and then the girl was locked up.
This news almost impacted Xunyi's outlook on life.
As a result, she had some problems that still bother her.
Ninjas, as a group of human beings, deserve everything that ordinary people don't have.
Including status, strength, wealth...... So, what else is ninja not satisfied with? Why harm innocent lives?
Is it possible that with power, you can do whatever you want? Or is this the true definition of ninjutsu?
Xunyi will never admit this point of view, and the Will of Fire is not educated in this way.
Ninjutsu is supposed to be something that was invented for protection.
"This is the path I set for myself a long time ago." In the face of the little girl's puzzlement, Orochimaru calmly admitted everything he had done in the past, "I don't deny that I have studied human medicine and done some experiments, even if I still think that these are just necessary sacrifices for me to pursue the truth...... However, now my perception has changed, and these human experiments have not completely allowed me to find the direction. ”
"I can still find a few of those children's corpses." Xunyi looked at Orochimaru.
Obviously, she didn't believe Orochimaru, even if he did it now, this look that seemed to be "repentant".
Crocodile tears, this story is a picture book that her father personally read to her when she was a child.
"Eternal life can't save ninjas, you can only save yourself." Orochimaru said lightly.
“……”
Xunyi stared at Orochimaru tightly.
After a while, Sakura's lips opened slightly, and she said something softly.
"Neuropathy."
However, after this period of time, Orochimaru really didn't seem to do any more human experiments.
According to Xunyi's observations, he took in a little girl named Hongdou and spent most of his time with her.
Although he didn't know the purpose of Orochimaru, no matter what, Xunyi decided to spy on him to the end. Anyway, she just bit the line of Orochimaru.
The conversation between the two was only a moment.
At this time, the sun was already shining over the sky, and the sun was shining hotly on the earth.
Autumn also has a nickname, called "Autumn Tiger", especially the country of grass, mixed with the land of earth and fire, belongs to the subtropical monsoon climate.
"I'm tired from walking, let's go back to the embassy and rest."
Xun Yi stretched her waist and stood up from the chair, her hair fluttering like kelp, and under her slender arms, her beautiful figure was revealed, showing her graceful posture in every move. There was a sound of the camera "clicking" on the side, and when I turned my head, it turned out to be a photographer from the country of grass, who filmed the moving scene of the girl getting up.
"Actually, you can really consider changing careers to become stars." Orochimaru seriously suggested.
Xunyi pouted: "No kidding, I was born a ninja, being an actor or something......"
"Ninja and actor, the two professions are not in conflict, but rather a contradictory contradiction."
"Seriously, I don't really understand, what the hell are you thinking?"
"You can think about it."
“……”
"Neuropathy."
Xun Yi said two neuropathies in two minutes, an average of one point.
She found that this title was too suitable for Orochimaru.
He always says something...... Words that people don't understand.
"Let's go!"
At this time, just as Xunyi was about to quietly leave Orochimaru two meters away like before, wanting to pretend not to know him-
Suddenly, Orochimaru's eyes narrowed, and he stretched out his right hand and pushed her body out to the right side.
"Hey, what are you doing......"
Xunyi screamed, relying on the instinct of a ninja, and stood firm in the process of being pushed.
As soon as he wanted to ask questions, he heard a violent sound in his ears.
"Boom!"
At the same time, the bench on the side of the street burst open!
The flames flew and exploded violently, blasting the ground on the asphalt road into a cloud of rocks and dust. Several pedestrians were hit by the blast and fell to the ground injured, screaming and groaning.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
However, the explosions did not stop.
Immediately afterwards, the benches next to it also began to explode one after another.
With an earth-shattering loud noise, billowing smoke rose into the air like an overwhelming sandstorm. The blazing waves rushed out, bringing with them bursts of scarlet flames, and sawdust, stones, dirt, and even crumbling steel concrete fell like meteor showers.
"Ahh
"Help!"
The terrible screams suddenly exploded from the crowd, and people began to flee in all directions.
The flames of the explosion seemed to break through the sky, and from time to time several pedestrians were affected, and they were injured by the rocks and fell to the ground, screaming endlessly.
"W-what's going on?" Xunyi was stunned.
"The actions of the diehards of the land country are even more unscrupulous than imagined." Orochimaru used the teleportation technique to come to the little girl's side, "Obviously, they have set up an ambush here in advance, just waiting for us to throw ourselves into the net. ”
"This ...... Don't they know that it will hurt the lives of innocent people? Xunyi gritted his teeth and looked at the crowd of people who kept fleeing in a hurry, and anger burst out in his eyes.
"This is the real ninja." Orochimaru shook his head.
"The ninjas you see are only a small part of Konoha ninjas. A true ninja has always been like this. ”
“……”
Xunyi lowered his eyes, his shoulders trembling.
