Ling walked on the street with a light car, and only after reaching the end did he stop going straight, turned a corner and walked into a small alley.

It was a dimly lit alley flanked by tattered wooden huts, and although it was close to the street, just a wall, it was clearly an urban village compared to the high-rise buildings lining the street.

If one day an Uchiha ninja came with a demolition order in his hand, and then threw down a large amount of banknotes and yelled at Ling, "This place has been requisitioned and developed, take this money and get out of here." "Ling was wondering if I should roll out with the money, or should I get out?

Of course, there will definitely be novel-style obscenity at this time, probably like this, how can you embarrass the crossing party at this time, so the corners of Ling's mouth provoked an evil smile, the blood in his eyes flashed, and he decisively showed the kaleidoscope writing wheel eye, and then it was the ninja's turn to think about getting out? It's better to get out, this mysterious question.

Of course, he also thinks about this matter, what is the writing wheel, what is the kaleidoscope, it does not exist! And the so-called ninja has never appeared, so there is no question of rolling or not rolling.

Crunch!

In front of a wooden house that was no different from other huts, Ling pushed the door directly and walked in, as for why there was no lock, please, it was an exaggeration to describe it as a family with four walls, just a bed, a table and a few small horses, the thief came and couldn't bear it, he didn't leave anything, he was embarrassed to say that he had visited.

Ling opened all the doors, the originally dark room had a trace of light, this small alley because of the high-rise buildings outside, the lighting effect is not good, if the doors and windows are closed, the day can be used as night.

There are no shops on this alleyway, not even a retail store, because there is a street just around the corner outside the door, so it is very cold, and only some people who live in this alley will frequent it.

Don't look at the Uchiha clan is a wealthy family of Konoha, it looks glamorous and beautiful, but there are really a lot of people in the countryside, the real cow is those powerful ninjas, you can make money by going out on a mission, although the danger is high, but it is better than starving to death in a family, and the poor people who have no strength live in extreme poverty, which can be seen from the rice bowl where Ling is preparing to make lunch.

The tank is quite large, round and round, but the inventory is good - the rats will starve to death in it within two days of falling in, and the tank is too high to climb out.

I don't know why the parents of the original owner bought such a big tank!

"Fortunately, today is the end of the month, and you will be able to receive the relief money tomorrow!" Ling forgot to glance at the rice in the jar, only the bottom layer had a thin layer of rice grains, and an adult could grab them all with one claw.

The relief money was issued by Konoha to the Uchiha clan for orphans like Ling who have no financial resources, and it will be distributed until he graduates from the ninja school, or after he has financial resources, after all, his "parents" are also "sacrificed" for the village!

Thinking of the relief money, Ling gritted his teeth with hatred, every time an orphan like him sent out a relief money, half of it was basically snatched away! This is also the situation that Ling often has no rice to cook, although the relief money issued is not much, but it is enough for a person to live well, but half of it is snatched away out of thin air, and life is very embarrassing!

"I can only do it today."

There wasn't much rice left, and it was enough to eat a dry meal, but it was still noon, and Ling could only choose to have something thin, and Ling had done this more than once.

"Ling, Ling!"

Just as Ling had dug out the rice and put the water in preparation for the fire, a crisp call came from outside the house.

"Who?"

Ling walked out of the kitchen: "It's you, Quanmei!" Can I help you? ”

Greeted by a little girl of the same age as Ling, Uchiha Izumi, she was wearing a women's lilac Uchiha top, long hair shawl, two black eyes were particularly large, so big that people would feel that her eyes accounted for one-third of her entire face when they saw her face at a glance, and there was a tear mole the size of a grain of rice under her right eye, which added a bit of cuteness to her.

Izumi Uchiha appears very rarely in the original book, and appears a few times in Itachi's true biography, she likes Itachi, but the ending is very sad, in the anime, she died at Obito's hands, and her eyes were gouged out!

And Ling's relationship with her. Well! Probably -- neighbors!

Why, probably, because Ling lives at the interface between this alley and the street, and Izumi's home is at the end of the street, at the entrance of the alley.

The two families are not far apart, but the economic conditions are a little worse, the relationship, not close, but not estranged, ordinary relationship!

After all, a person whose parents are both dead and has no financial resources and a person with a ninja father is certainly not comparable.

Quan Mei glanced at the extremely simple furnishings in the room, and said quietly, "My father told you to go to dinner." ”

"Tell me to eat?" Ling pointed to his nose.

"Yes." Izumi's eyes narrowed, revealing a big smile, and when her eyes were slightly closed, the black tear mole was extremely dazzling, twinkling like stars, well! It was lovely.

"Why? Why are you inviting me to dinner? ”

Ling was puzzled, Quanmei's father, Ling had never seen or known him, and he hadn't invited him to dinner for a year, so why did he suddenly invite him to dinner today?

Don't...... Ling suddenly shook his spirits - I have a secret on me?

"Let's go! Walk! Walk! Let's go. ”

Thinking of this stubble, Ling couldn't wait.

"Ah...... Good. ”

The impatient change made Izumi a little confused, but she still led Ling to the street.

The two families were very close, and in less than a minute, Ling and Quanmei had already arrived.

Izumi's home is not luxurious, the decoration is somewhat simple, the interior is not gorgeous, and there is only a table and a few tatami mats in the hall, and only potted plants are placed in the corners and corners.

A middle-aged man with a full beard and a slight vicissitudes of life was sitting at the table drinking tea, this should be Quanmei's father, Ling Xiang.

"Dad, I'm back." Really!

Quan Mei said playfully, stepped forward to pick up the teapot and refill the cup for her father, and took out a new cup and put it in front again, pouring tea, which was for Ling.

"Hello, uncle." Ling greeted politely.

"Ah, I'm back, please be seated." The middle-aged man stretched out his hand and touched Quanmei's head fondly, and then glanced at Ling, his eyes were a little complicated.

"Do I really have a secret?"

In a secret guess, Ling sat down and waited for the following.

But Quanmei's father didn't speak, until Quanmei talked to him without a match, "Ling, do you go to training every day?" ”

Ling rolled his eyes, "It's not nonsense, I run past your door every day." ”

Come to think of it, you still can't say that.

"Hmm." Ling nodded in response.

"Ahh It's tiring to train like that every day. And Ling can persist every day! Izumi rolled her big beautiful eyes and looked at him, and her slightly adoring tone made Ling extremely enjoyable.

But when I thought of the hard training results, I couldn't help but be deflated.

During this year-long period, the daily perseverance in training has not been useful except for the improvement of the physique.

Not to mention compared to geniuses, even other people with the same waste material have a big gap, think about Naruto Uzumaki, he hasn't trained since he was a child, he jumps up and down when he makes trouble, and he walks on the wall, and the problem boy is appropriate, and the ninja can't catch it if he doesn't move, and Ling can't, and the height of the second floor is estimated to follow the original owner's wish - follow his own parents.

And the genius Uchiha Itachi is the same age as Ling, and at this time, he can jump from a cliff up to 100 meters high, use a shuriken to mitigate the impact and land safely.

And Ling stood on the high cliff, let alone jumping, and when he looked at it, his legs trembled like a sieve.

If it weren't for the fear of death, the ghost would want to train, and it would have no effect if he was tired and half dead.

Hearing this, Izumi's father suddenly said, "You train every day? ”

"Hmm." Ling nodded.

"What is the purpose of your training?"

"Get stronger." Ling, who was an otaku in his previous life, was not very good at communication and spoke very concisely.

Quanmei's father was also a little speechless for a while: "Uh...... I mean, what is your purpose in becoming stronger? ”

"The purpose? Alive. ”

"Alive? Alive......"

Speaking of this, Izumi's father muttered in a low voice, as if remembering something, and then fell into deep thought.

"What a weirdo."

For Quanmei's father, who suddenly fell silent, Bai Nian labeled him as a weirdo.

"Quanmei, come and help mom get the food!" A head poked out of the kitchen, it was Izumi's mother, who spoke very softly and softly, although Izumi's mother was already a middle-aged woman, she was very young, with long straight black hair shrouded in the delicate melon seed face, and she always seemed to be smiling when she spoke, and she looked very warm!

"Yes, Mom!" Izumi answered and stood up.

"Hello, Auntie." Ling also stood up and said hello, ready to follow to help.

"Hey, what a polite child, just sit down, and you'll be ready to eat right away." Quanmei's mother smiled the same as Quanmei, both eyes were completely narrowed, such a smile is very affinity, Quanmei should be with her mother, she looks cute, and her smile is even cuter.

"It's okay, you have to do something." Ling followed Izumi to help set up the table.

"What a good boy." Quanmei's mother is full of praise for Ling! The bluffy Ling is very embarrassed, the thought of being in his twenties, being bitten by a child, no one is embarrassed.

Quan Mei's father looked at Ling who was busy with work, and his eyes kept changing. "Zhongshang, the child is very well educated, very well-behaved, sensible, if it weren't for me, he could have lived a better life. But...... Don't worry, I'll take care of him for you in the future...... Maybe it's because of your death that this kid is trying hard to get stronger, maybe he's going to go down the path of a ninja as well, which goes against your original intentions, but I think ...... We should respect the wishes of our children, shouldn't we? ”

Lunch is very simple, four dishes and one soup, eat quickly, and it is also very harmonious, Quanmei's mother has been helping Ling with the dishes, and Ling, who has not eaten good things for a long time, is feasting, praising Quanmei's mother's craftsmanship while eating, and Quanmei's mother, who was afraid that Ling can't let go, smiled and couldn't close her mouth.

And Quan Mei was also next to Zhile, which made Ling Du feel that his eating appearance was not too ugly.

Only Izumi's father was beside him, and he didn't know what to think......

"Thank you for your hospitality!"

After eating, Ling said goodbye and left, from beginning to end, Quanmei's father didn't say anything more, but Quanmei's mother kept saying that she wanted to come to play often and something, which made Ling think that she was not a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it.

The so-called three major illusions of life.

I can cultivate immortals, I can smoke SSR, she likes me, and Ling feels like she is all alive.
