Holding a trumpet knife in his hand, he pulled out the knife again and again, put it into the sheath, and sweat left on his cheeks, but Liu Yang didn't even have time to wipe it.

The cherry blossoms in the courtyard were blown down by the wind, fluttering all over the courtyard, Liu Yang looked at the cherry blossoms flying in front of him, squinted, and then his right hand suddenly pulled out the knife that was sheathed at his waist, and his hand slammed upward.

"Woo——!"

Suddenly, this time the knife was no longer as plain as before, the blade trembled slightly invisibly, and with that strange sound, the air in front of him seemed to be torn, and an invisible blue flashed on the blade.

"Shh——!h

Returning the knife into the sheath again, Liu Yang reached out and caught the petals that fell in front of him, only to see that the cherry blossom petals that fell in the palm of his hand were blown by the wind and instantly turned into two halves.

Finally it worked!

The corners of Liu Yang's lips couldn't help but curl slightly, and after practicing hard for half a month, he finally practiced his sword qi again.

Closing his eyes and feeling the faint sense of qi in the dantian, Liu Yang's mood finally brightened.

She hadn't felt the sword qi after practicing for half a month before, and she thought that this world couldn't cultivate internal strength, and even she was about to give up.

Fortunately, now she has finally seen a little light.

As long as this world can still cultivate the Northern Pride Technique, then it won't be too bad for her.

Casually throwing aside the small knife in his hand, he didn't even look at it, he didn't have the value of the knife when he practiced before, Liu Yang turned around and walked towards the stone table under the cherry blossom tree.

Picking up the wet towel resting on the edge of the basin and wiping his hands carefully, Liu Yang's slightly lowered eyes brought a hint of disappointment.

The means of forging this knife are so poor that the person who forged it must have directly sentenced the knife to death when forging it, so this knife can only be a useless shell.

I still don't have enough money......

Raising his head and looking at the cherry blossoms fluttering overhead, Liu Yang squinted.

I wanted to go over to the third generation and borrow money from him, but for various reasons, she never acted, and even gave up this idea directly.

But relying on the sum that could only allow her to arrange food, clothing, housing and transportation every month without any surplus living expenses, Liu Yang really didn't know when she would be able to save up the materials for forging knives.

Miss Liu Wu, who has never lacked silver in Datang, was extremely aggrieved at this time, but she didn't expect that one day she would be embarrassed by something yellow and white that she had never seen in her eyes.

Although her dignified Liu family has never lacked the means to make money, she doesn't even have the capital, so how can she make money?

And Liu Yang, who was worried about money and looked at the falling cherry blossom petals above in a daze, suddenly came back to his senses, stared at the tree trunk above his head, and then said with a bit of gritted teeth:

"Itachi Uchiha, why are you here?"

I saw that on the trunk of the cherry blossom tree, which was originally empty, there was a young man dressed in black at this time, his braids hanging down the trunk, and his hair swaying gently with the wind.

The young man's delicate facial features looked a little transparent under the sunlight, diluting the two long lines under his eyes, and softening the usually serious face lines a little.

Looking at the appearance of Uchiha Itachi lying on the tree and resting, Liu Yang didn't feel a little conquered by his appearance, and just wanted to kick this nasty imp out.

Ever since she was bitten by Sasuke on the day she first arrived in Konoha, Ryuo hadn't seen the Uchiha brothers, but that didn't stop her from classifying the two into the hated category.

As an elder brother, he stabbed her at the first meeting, and as a younger brother, he gnawed at her at the first meeting, and she really couldn't find a reason to like these two brothers.

Itachi opened his eyes and looked at the little girl standing under the tree staring at her.

Today, she wore white sleeves with a scarlet hakama, and her shawl hair was neatly tied behind her ears with a red ribbon, dressed like a witch.

I haven't seen her for half a month, judging from her slightly rounded cheeks and the meticulous way she cleaned up, she really responded to what she said in the office of the third generation that day, and she was very good at taking care of herself.

Thinking of the knife that the girl swung under the tree just now, a bright light flashed in Itachi's eyes:

"The knife just now is amazing."

"Please answer my question."

Liu Yang pulled the corners of his lips and showed a smirk, and then quickly retracted it.

If there's nothing to do, get out of here, don't stop her from moving forward.

Itachi turned over directly from the tree and landed in front of Liu Yang, and I don't know where he took out a wrapped box and handed it to Liu Yang:

"Apologies, for Sasuke's rude that day."

“…… Do you have to bring it up? ”

Liu Yang only felt that every word of the guy in front of her was challenging her endurance, and she grinded her teeth silently.

It's embarrassing to be bitten by a stinky little ghost, do you know? Do you want to spread the reputation of Miss Liu Wu!!

"Just because you don't mention it doesn't mean it doesn't exist."

Itachi said, raised his hand to brush away the cherry blossoms on the stone table, put the box in his hand on it very carefully, and turned his head to look at Liu Yang who was standing on the side:

"But let's see if you like it?"

"What is it?"

Liu Yang looked at the box that was carefully placed on the stone table by Itachi, and was also curious about what could make this guy so careful.

After all, judging from the plot in that manga in her memory, except for Sasuke, there was hardly anything that could make this person show such a deliberate and cherished emotion.

And after Itachi opened the box, Liu Yang couldn't help but raise his hand to support his forehead after seeing what was in the box.

Really, how could she have forgotten this thing.

"What? Dislike? ”

Itachi turned his head to look at the strings of three-color balls neatly arranged in the box, and tilted his head, not quite understanding why Liu Yang had such an expression.

Why doesn't Liu Yang like such a good thing as three-color balls?

"It's just that the difference between the expectation and the reality is too great, and I can't accept it for a while."

Liu Yang walked to Itachi's side, sat down at the stone table, looked at the row of three-color balls in the box, picked up a string casually and looked at it, and turned his head to look at Itachi:

"If you really apologize to me for the food, why don't you just send a box of grapes."

She doesn't like this kind of snack that can sweeten her teeth at all, it is not as good as sweet and sour grapes, at least it can supplement vitamin C.

Saying that, for the sake of meaning, Liu Yang raised his hand and prepared to eat the string of three-color balls in his hand, and then let the rest be taken away by this sweet.

As a result, she didn't expect that as soon as she handed the balls to her mouth, she felt the eyes of the young people around her fix on her ...... hand.

“……”

Turning his head silently, seeing that the black-haired young man beside him was looking at her with a pair of indifferent black eyes, and there was a faint murderous aura in his eyes, Liu Yang thought about it, and still directly handed the ball to Itachi's mouth:

"Otherwise, you might as well eat."

"Then you're welcome."

With a light hand, the string of three-color balls in his hand immediately changed hands, and the black-haired boy unceremoniously and directly solved the glutinous rice balls at the top of the bamboo skewer.

…… retarded.

The corners of Liu Yang's eyes twitched slightly, and he looked at the young man next to him with a serious face to solve the three-color balls in his hand and in the box, took a deep breath, and told himself in his heart that he couldn't beat Itachi now, and he had to pour a glass of warm water in his hand and put it in Itachi's hand.

This is the most aggrieved apology gift she has ever received.

I didn't say anything about the things I was not satisfied with, and in the end, all of them fell into the stomach of the apologetist.

"That's right."

After solving another string of three-color balls, Itachi turned his head to look at the little girl next to him who was looking at the cherry blossoms in a daze, and said:

"Lord Miyome has said that the ninja school is about to open, and I want to send you there to go to school, let me inform you on my behalf."

"Oh."

Liu Yang came back to his senses and answered softly.

The night she first came to Konoha, Miyo had already said that he would arrange for her to go to a ninja school.

She didn't know how much she could learn about the ninjutsu in the ninja school, but she had to go and see it and compare the difference between chakra and internal force.

Don't be a person who works behind closed doors, this is the first admonition that Liu Fenggu taught her.

She will not be conceited that she can walk sideways in this world with Bei Aojue, and she has not forgotten the scene in the original anime that was often overwhelmed.

She will work hard to learn those ninjutsu, after all, in this world where the mortality rate is ridiculously high, only strength can bring her a true sense of security.

Turning his head to look at the boy who was quietly eating three-color balls, Liu Yang couldn't help but sigh a little when he thought about his final ending in the anime.

Who would have thought that this not tall teenager might kill his parents with his own hands soon after, give his most beloved brother a fatal blow and endless hatred, and finally spend all his remaining half of his life to pave a bright road for his younger brother?

I'm sorry, Sasuke, next time.

I'm sorry, Sasuke, there won't be a next time.

Thinking of those two lines with helplessness and sadness, Liu Yang felt that he was simply too happy.

She has never carried so much like the ferret, not in modern times, when she was in the Tang Dynasty, she had Liu Fenggu and three righteous brothers on it, she just had to be her Miss Liu Wu and practice martial arts well and not embarrass the Liu family.

And Itachi, at a young age, has already carried too many things on his back.

"Are you nervous because you're going to a ninja school?"

Itachi's eyes moved without a trace, and he turned to Liu Yang, but saw that her face was a little dazed at this time, and then asked.

It's just that he knows that Liu Yang is not nervous, she is just thinking about something, and this matter is likely to be related to himself.

"No, just thinking about things."

Liu Yang shook his head.

She couldn't tell Itachi that she knew he was going to die tragically at the age of 21, right?

"Sasuke is going to school too, and the two of you should be in the same class."

Itachi turned the three-color ball in his hand, handed it to his mouth and took another bite.

"I'll let him take care of you more."

Liu Yang looked up and sat carefully beside him, looking a serious young man eating sweets, but he couldn't see any emotion on his face.

Is Itachi taking care of her around the bush? But are you sure you want this guy Sasuke to come?

Don't think that your utterly broken apology will make me forget the fact that he took a bite out of me?
