Chapter 71: Memorial Service
Since the beginning of the war in Iwakuin Village, there has been a great war in the Land of Rain, then a local war, and finally a general decisive battle at the national level, which lasted more than four years.
Among them, the Land of Rain took the longest, at least two and a half years.
In order to prevent the flames of war from reaching their own country, the three major ninja villages all fought in the country of rain, and turned the country of rain, which was not developing well economically, into a ruined place.
This can't be said to be the fault of the three major ninja villages, but the strength of Yuyin Village is not strong enough, and if it is backward, it will be beaten, that's for sure.
In this war, the land of fire and the country of thunder are the victorious countries, the country of wind and the country of earth are the defeated countries, and the country of water does not directly participate in the war and is left alone.
Although the Fire Nation was victorious, the Vortex Country, its strongest ally, was wiped out in the fear of various countries, which was extremely disadvantageous to the Fire Nation.
As soon as the battle ended, there were many more orphans in various villages, and their parents died on the battlefield, which was very painful.
As long as there is a war, there is no winner.
Shi Ming only took a cursory glance next to the orphanage, and saw a lot of orphans with numb expressions, not only from Konoha Village, but also from outside.
As long as there are ninjas, the number of orphans will continue to increase, and there will be no day when they will stop.
"It was here that I was valued by Tuan Zang, and then I became an intelligence officer under him, and you were the first mission I accepted, but I didn't expect to directly reveal my identity."
Ye Naiyu, who was next to Shi Ming, said, telling her life experience.
"And as long as I work under Tuanzang, he will give money to the orphanage so that these children can grow up."
Ye Naiyu's background is similar to that of Dou, they are all orphans, and they all became Tuanzang's subordinates for the sake of the orphanage, even if she didn't want to in her heart.
Looking at the large number of orphans in front of him, and some of them still had a large number of ribbons wrapped around their bodies, it could be seen that they were seriously injured.
"At the beginning, I was a little dissatisfied with being a member of the Akido clan, and I thought about how I didn't become a member of those larger families, but today I realized how stupid my idea was, and today I realized how honored it is for me to be a member of the Akido clan."
Shi Ming said, glad that he did not become an orphan, and he still has parents and childhood, and he is simply too happy compared to these children.
This orphanage was brought to him by Ye Naiyu, and it is also the place where Ye Naiyu grew up, and it is her home.
After learning about Ye Naiyu's deeds, Shi Ming's attitude towards her has changed a lot, at least there is no estrangement, and he will not hate her because of her potential identity.
She's also pathetic.
After leaving the orphanage, the two walked to the martyr's cemetery next to it, preparing to attend today's memorial service.
War, death is inevitable.
In this battle in Konoha Village, the number of people who died was three times that of the First Ninja World War, and because of Shi Ming's relationship, he did not receive war funds.
It was only after the two of them went to the capital to operate that the regent of the Fire Country generously allocated a large amount of money so that Konoha Village had enough property for post-war construction.
At the memorial service, Shi Ming and Shuimen stood together, and their faces were not very good.
The place where the water gate fought was the country of grass, and it was a mission to protect the daimyo of the country of grass, so I didn't meet Shi Ming, and the last time we met was more than a year ago.
"Originally, I thought it would be easy to be in the country of grass, but I didn't expect that there were a large number of ninjas who wanted to assassinate the daimyo, and a few good friends who had just made died in the assassination."
Before the memorial service began, Watergate and Shi Ming chatted about the war, and of course the content was all bad topics.
"War, there will always be deaths, this is inevitable, unless one day there is no war."
Shi Ming thought of the rope tree, if it weren't for himself, I'm afraid he would not be able to escape death.
And next to the water gate, Jiu Sinai looked at the sad two people, but he was very helpless in his heart.
She also wanted to go to the battlefield, but unfortunately, as a human pillar force, she was restricted by the village, and at most she did some odd jobs in the village.
She looked at Shi Ming, with a look of sympathy in her eyes.
Now that the news of Shi Ming's role as a human pillar has spread throughout the village, most people are very afraid of him, which makes Jiu Sinai feel terrible.
If her identity is revealed, then the treatment she will suffer may be even worse than Shi Ming.
After all, the Nine-Tails had attacked Konoha Village.
A light rain fell in the sky, and it added to the sadness in people's hearts.
Ape Fei walked to a high platform, and then preached with a very heavy heart.
However, no matter how gorgeous the praise of the martyrs is, it is just a way for people to express their feelings, and people can never be resurrected after death.
Shi Ming looked up and saw that the martyrs' cemetery was full of newly erected tombstones, and most of them were well-dressed mounds, and many times the ninja battles would not even leave a corpse.
After the memorial service, Shi Ming and a group of friends walked to the Yile Ramen Restaurant.
Today's day is a bit special, but Ichiraku Ramen, which usually comes and goes, is deserted today, with few customers.
"Shi Ming, what do you want to eat?"
Xiao Tang forced a smile and wrote down everyone's orders one by one.
At this time, Mai Tamin also had no heart to fight with Little Sugar, and her parents died in the war and became an orphan.
She can't remember how many times she cried, and if it weren't for the comfort of her friends, her heart would have gradually closed.
"Come on, come on, everyone can eat as much as you like today, and you don't have to pay."
He walked out with a few bowls of noodles in his hands, and then placed them in front of everyone.
A long time ago, Tetsu supported the war in his own way, that is, the ninja did not have to give money to eat noodles, so that the property he had stored in the early years was now spent.
But he was willing to do it, and his wife agreed with him to do it, even if it was selling ramen, it was bloody.
Shi Ming tasted it and said: "The noodles are not gluten enough, I didn't put much effort into kneading, the taste of the soup was lighter, I think the added broth was not strong enough; The noodles appear extra soft and take a little longer to cook. ”
Even now, Shi Ming is picky enough to make his hand hit smile awkwardly.
In order to rush the work, the number of kneading dough is reduced several times.
There was a shortage of supplies, and there was not much to buy for the bones used to boil the broth.
In a hurry, his wife was confined at home, and it was too late to go to get noodles when he finished one thing.
However, the hand hit laughed, it seems that Shi Ming is not depressed yet, and he is still as picky about eating as ever.
He didn't have any idea about Shi Ming becoming a human pillar force, and he still treated Shi Ming as before.
And now it has been two months since Shi Ming returned to the village, and there is still no sign of riots, most people are not as afraid of Shi Ming as they were at the beginning, and the situation is developing on the better side.
