Chapter 65: The Lost Self
On the way home, Hippo Hanyu's right eyelid kept jumping, he flicked it twice, and said in a low voice: "This left eye is rich, and the right eye is jumping, but what disaster can I have?" ”
"What did you say?" Lin thought Han Yu was talking to her and asked.
"Nothing."
The young man beside him happened to hear his words, and asked curiously: "What does my brother mean when he says, 'Fortune jumps in the left eye, and disaster jumps in the right eye'?" ”
"Hehe, my sister doesn't know, you ask your brother to go." Lin couldn't help but laugh when she looked at the strange face of Hippo Hanyu, and at the same time didn't forget to kick the question of Qingtian to him.
The later Yanqian Dongtian pulled Qingtian and muttered in the ear of the little girl for a while, Qingtian looked like he suddenly realized, and he was no longer entangled in this problem.
"Kakashi, you're back?" Rin saw Kakashi standing at the door at a glance and asked, but her expression was a little unnatural when she spoke, there was no way, as soon as she saw Kakashi, she couldn't help but think of Obito, and even her good mood today was gone.
"Gorai Kakashi already knew about Rin living in their house, and he wasn't too surprised that the two of them appeared in his house together.
"How do you stand in the doorway?" Hanyu Hippo asked, not believing that Kakashi was waiting for him at the door.
"Jiraiya-sama and Mr. Watergate are inside."
"So you're kicked out to guard the gate?" Hippo Hanyu shook his head, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, let's go in!" ”
Now Hippo Hanyu knows why his eyelids have jumped, it turns out that the decrepit man has returned, so to speak, the war on the northern front has also improved, and there is no need for him, the great god, to sit in charge.
"Hanyu, I haven't seen you for a while, my spirit is much better!" Jilai also walked out with a smile, followed by Bo Feng Shuimen.
"That is, during this time, I slept until I woke up naturally every day, stretched out my hands for clothes, opened my mouth for food, and lived more freely than the gods. It's you, uncle, why do you get thinner and thinner the more you look at it, and the older you look at, is this still our invincible toad immortal? Hippo Hanyu has never regarded Jiraiya as a big man's consciousness, and sarcastically said unceremoniously.
"You kid, you still don't know how to respect your predecessors, you really don't understand that the old man actually let someone like you be a teacher, isn't that a scourge for Konoha's future?" Jiraiya was not polite to him, and shot back.
"I think so too," Hippo Hanyu nodded deeply and said, "Why don't you go and talk to the three generations, let him replace me, I still retire to raise flowers at home, and it's better to grow grass." ”
"you, you kid, you want to be lazy when you get the chance, no way." Jiraiya scolded.
"Why don't you go in and sit down?" Seeing a group of people standing in the courtyard chatting, it felt weird.
"You're all back, what are you still sitting, go, go out for a drink or two." Coming to him for a drink is the main purpose of Jiraiya.
"Drinking?" Hippo Hanyu licked his lips and said, "I've quit drinking." ”
"Quit drinking?" He doesn't believe it, he knows the amount of alcohol that Hippo Hanyu drinks, if he doesn't drink all year round, how can he practice.
Bo Feng Shuimen saw that Jiraiya was looking at him, so he had to explain: "His previous injuries were not healed, so Miss Zhizi and Miss Ling Ye gave him a ban on alcohol. ”
"So that's the case," Jiraiya rolled his eyelids and said, "You kid is fine, still pretending." It's rare for me to come back, and if you don't have two drinks with me, I'll break off your friendship. Jiraiya threatened.
"That's great, to be honest, you're one of the famous three ninjas, and I'm under a lot of pressure when I walk with you." Hippo Hanyu just deliberately contradicted Zilai, and drilled home.
I didn't bother to talk to him without nonsense, it seemed that I hadn't won him in this regard, so I directly put my arm around the shoulder of Hippo Hanyu and walked out.
"Teacher", Lin was thundered by Jiraiya's performance just now, and only then did he have time to salute Bo Feng Shuimen.
Bo Fengshuimen nodded very gracefully, and said with a smile: "Do a good job, by the way, Hanyu's medical ninjutsu is very clever, you have to seize the opportunity and let him teach you well." Thinking of Hanyu's style of Hippo Hanyu, Lin is at least safe with him, but Lin is also his own student no matter what he says, and giving her a little reminder is also what the teacher should do.
After the two said a few words, Bo Feng Shuimen also said goodbye.
Words are unintentional, listen intentionally, Kakashi's mind is not so calm at this moment, he has lived with Hippo Hanyu for so many years, and he has never heard of Hippo Hanyu can medical ninjutsu, let alone be smart. But Bo Feng Shuimen is definitely not the kind of person who has no purpose, he said that the hippo Hanyu will, then it must be, but how do they know?
Medical ninjutsu? Clever medical ninjutsu? Kakashi repeated the thought in his mind, a flash of inspiration, a bold conjecture appeared in his mind, and his face suddenly became extremely unnatural, if this assumption was true, then-
"Kakashi, are you uncomfortable?" Rin asked with concern as she looked at Kakashi's face a little pale.
"It's okay, I'll go back to my room and get some rest." Kakashi was also a little afraid to face Rin and hurriedly left.
"Cheers to you as a teacher." Zilai didn't wait for the hippo Hanyu to finish drinking it first.
"Uh-" Tongji has also drunk more than once, and he has never seen him so refreshing, Hippo Hanyu raised his glass and savored it slowly.
Bo Feng Shuimen didn't follow, and it seemed that he had something to say to himself.
"Cheers to Konoha's victory!"
"Cheers to the honor of forbearance!"
Looking at Zilaiye's cup of wine, Hippo Hanyu's face was not good-looking, "You pulled me to drink, looking at you now, I am simply superfluous." ”
Jiraiya put down his wine glass, forced his eyes on Hippo Hanyu's face, and said, "Hanyu, what do you think of Hokage's identity?" ”
"Hokage?" Hippo Hanyu didn't react for a while, could it be that the three generations said something to Jiraiya, he would be like this, there is no reason to be in a bad mood as soon as he comes back!
"It's just a name, just like a country needs a daimyo and a village needs a village chief, and the village chief of Konoha is the Hokage." Hippo Hanyu replied lightly.
"Haven't you ever thought about being the Hokage?" Jiraiya asked.
"Nope." Hippo Hanyu replied more crisply.
"You're not an excellent ninja, in Konoha, a ninja who doesn't want to be a Hokage is not an excellent ninja, no wonder you always try to avoid something." Jilai also drank a glass of wine.
And there is such a theory, isn't this a pirated Napoleon's famous quote?
However, Hippo Hanyu really never thought of becoming a Hokage, just like he never thought of becoming a government official in his previous life, for the simple reason that politics is too dirty, too fake, he doesn't like it, since he can't change the nature of politics, at least he can stay away from politics and cherish life.
"Maybe! I've never thought of myself as a good shinobi, that's what you think. ”
"But we've all thought that before?" Zilai also sighed.
"You guys?"
"Yes. We, I, Orochimaru, Steel Hand, Broken, Zixiao, and Mizumon, we are all working hard with this dream, fighting for this dream, becoming Hokage, and protecting Konoha. ”
Hippo Hanyu didn't like the current Jiraiya, so he drank a glass of wine and said, "I don't know what the three generations of adults said to you, but I think you should have realized what the three generations of adults said a long time ago, didn't you?" And, in my opinion, being a Hokage and guarding Konoha are two different things, and even if you are not a Hokage, you can still protect Konoha, isn't it? ”
Jilai was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "You know? ”
"Isn't it that the third generation prefers Watergate to be the fourth generation? As for all the fuss? Hippo Hanyu said, he felt that it was nothing, because he had never thought that the four generations would be other people, so he didn't feel a little incomprehensible.
But for the villagers of Konoha including Jiraiya, this matter is not so easy to accept, and it is not necessary to put the famous Jiraiya, but to appoint his apprentice as the Hokage, where will Jiraiya be placed, is it not as good as the merits of Jiraiya for more than ten years?
Jiraiya's expression is even more weird, thinking that it is impossible for the three generations to tell others this kind of thing easily, but Hippo Hanyu looks like he has known for a long time, and it seems that the three generations really attach importance to him.
"The old man told you? I thought I was the first to know. Jiraiya laughed at himself.
Hippo Hanyu is not stupid, he quickly thought of the key, it seems that the purpose of the three generations to tell themselves about this matter is not simple! He wants to support Watergate himself, and he calculates that he will come to him, and he also hopes that he will seize the opportunity to become his help after being Watergate for four generations. At that time, I only considered the trust of the three generations in me and the unwillingness to have a bad quarrel with Watergate because of this incident, so after the three generations took the initiative to give in, they also put on a posture of cooperation.
"Hey, uncle, do you need to put on this face? I don't believe you didn't guess this possibility, although it will be a little uncomfortable to turn from conjecture to reality, but Watergate is your apprentice after all, and if he doesn't have you, no matter how hard he tries, he can't get to the top no matter how hard he works, right? "Hippo Hanyu said more directly, that is, he, if someone else changes it, he will never say that.
"Hehe, do you need to be so shrewd? Pretend to be confused and you'll die! It's a rare opportunity for me to brew my feelings of loss, and I'm experiencing life for my novels. Jiraiya suddenly returned to normal, joking casually.
"You-" Hippo Hanyu was so angry that he raised his head and drank, and he comforted him kindly, but he fulfilled the old saying "kindness is struck by thunder".
"Actually, I know what you're talking about, I did dream of being the Hokage when I was a teenager, but you know that I'm a person who doesn't like to be restrained, and if you want me to sit in the office all day and read documents, it's better to kill me. How about I can write a few books, how about it, have you considered collecting my autograph, it will appreciate in the future! ”
"you. I've seen shameless, I've never seen you so shameless, so you should also pay attention to your image, how to say that you are also a famous toad immortal, one of the dignified three ninjas. Hippo Hanyu scolded angrily.
