Chapter 31: The Beginning of Sadness
In the middle of the night, the heavy rain slanted and slammed mercilessly against the glass window.
Yuhime bit down her index finger and dropped a drop of blood into the ice crystal necklace.
In an instant, the necklace emitted a white light, enveloping her.
Despair, pain, fear, blood. All the images seemed to come to life, and they all broke into her brain.
For a moment, Yuhime seemed to be locked by an animal in the shape of a tanuki, and infinite anger and despair eroded her consciousness. When Yuhime reached out with a trembling hand and wiped the blood off the ice crystals, everything was calm again, and it was still raining heavily outside the window, as if nothing had happened here.
Yuhime gasped, "What's that?" and pinched his shoulder, which had been trembling, "Is this my Airo's memory?......"
After a rain, the sun shines with fresh air.
Yu Ji stood in front of her family's grave with a bunch of books, with an ice crystal necklace around her neck, and a warm wind blew, and Yu Ji knelt in front of the grave.
The breeze blew, and Yu Ji smiled with relief, "The fate that can't be escaped, it's better to face it head-on." ”
"So you're here. ”
Yuhime was stunned for a moment, stood up from the grave and turned around.
"You are very filial. Temari stood in front of her
"Do you have anything to do with me?"
"The necklace is yours in. Temari noticed the ice crystals around Yuhime's neck.
Yuhime put her hand on the ice crystal, "This is originally mine. ”
"But you gave it to me. Temari said coldly, "Last night, I found that the necklace was missing, and I went to the Forest of Death. ”
Yuhime was startled, but quickly calmed down, "The Forest of Death is a forbidden place in Konoha that no one can enter without the consent of Hokage-sama. ”
"Really, no one can stop me from going wherever I want to go. ”
"So what, it's none of my business. Yuhime stepped forward and walked around Temari to prepare to leave.
"Necklaces are important to me. ”
Rain Ji stopped.
Temari turned around, "Even if I don't think of me as his sister, but he's my brother, don't you really want to know about the relationship between you and my Airo." ”
A breeze blew across the cheeks of the two of them, and time seemed to stand still in this moment.
"I... I don't want to know anymore..."
"It's because Sasuke Uchiha, right. ”
"It's not. ”
Temari sneered and asked again, "You really don't want to know, do you have something to do with my Airo?"
Yu Ji turned around with a smile, "It's not important, you know." Sasuke was by my side five years ago, and from that moment on, I decided that he would be my all. ”
The two looked at each other for a long time, and Temari could see the affirmation in Yuhime's eyes.
"If you really love this person so much, then only you can save this person, and only you can stop me from loving Luo..."
Yuhime was silent for a while, "Do you think I'll believe it when you say that, Sasuke won't die so easily." ”
"Then try it. ”
Temari suddenly grabbed her hand angrily" When I was in the Forest of Death, the three rain ninja and I Ai Luo didn't know each other, and they didn't offend my Ai Luo, but they were all killed by my Ai Luo, and your two companions were saved because of you, if it weren't for you, they would have been killed by my Ai Luo, everyone in Shayin Village avoided me Ai Luo and was afraid of my Ai Luo, my father sent the secret ninja to assassinate my Ai Luo and was killed by my Ai Luo one by one, I Ai Luo because you let go again and again, he should have killed you a long time ago, but he didn't do it, do you dare to say that it doesn't matter now!"
Yu Ji looked away in shock, frowning, and a faint pain in her chest.
"My Airo was really cute when he was young, and he knew that he was thinking about people, until you left the Land of the Wind, I Airo was very sad, he hid the pain in his heart and was not discovered, but on the second night my uncle assassinated him, and told me that Airo's mother who has always loved him has been hating herself, and her mother hated me Airo for dying, and I Airo couldn't accept the facts, and launched the first rampage in Shayin Village, and then Airo became a completely different person, and he began to like to kill, and liked to fill the emptiness in his heart with blood, because only in this way did Airo feel his existence......”
Temari wiped away tears "I'm sorry for saying so much to you......"
Yuhime lowered her head......
Konoha Ninja Hospital:
Yu Ji looked at Xiao Li, who was lying unconscious on the hospital bed, full of guilt.
Kai has been guarding Xiao Li by the bedside.
"Teacher Kai, how is Xiao Li?"
"Xiao Li, he... Before he finished speaking, Kai's eyes were closed, and tears were occupied, "The doctor said that the bones of Lee's left hand and left foot were broken, and there were still some bone fragments in the bones, and he might not be able to be a ninja in the future..."
These words are like a bolt from the blue.
"No, it won't... There must be something else that can be done."
"Hmm... No matter what the cost, I will find a way to heal Lee..."
Yu Ji's heavy heart swept over again, "That Kai teacher, I suddenly remembered one thing, I left first." ”
"Well, if you have something, I'll go and do it, thank you very much for coming to visit Li. ”
Rain Hime walked out of the hospital and looked up at the sky, "Mana Rain Hime, you're useless"
At this moment, a flying leaf appeared in front of Yuhime, and when Yuhime reached out to grab it, one grabbed it faster than her.
Yuhime was startled, "Hokage-sama!"
The three generations of Hokage looked at Yuhime with leaves in their hands, "You seem to have something on your mind, go to the Hokage Building and sit down, and talk about it together by the way." ”
Rain Hime followed the three generations of Hokage to the Hokage Building.
The third Hokage sat in a chair, and Rain Hime stood in front of him
"Hokage-sama, what is the true power of a ninja?"
The three generations of Hokage were stunned for a moment, a kind smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he put the leaves in his hand in front of his eyes, "Only where the leaves fly, the fire will burn, and the shadow of the fire will shine on the village and make new leaves sprout, when you want to protect the people you cherish the most... The power of the ninja will be revealed... Got it?"
"The power of a ninja will only show when you want to protect the people you cherish the most?"
"Yes," the Hokage nodded, "Yuhime, come here." ”
Yuhime hesitated for a moment, but walked over anyway.
Hokage stood up from his chair "This is for you" Hokage handed the leaves in his hand to Yuhime, hoping that she would understand the meaning.
Yuhime took the leaves, "Hokage-sama, thank you." ”
"Rain Hime..."
“......”
The Hokage suddenly put his hand on Amahime's head and looked at her kindly, "Amahime, don't put so much pressure on yourself, you have to relax... I saw very clearly in the qualifiers, you are very good, but you are too emotional. ”
"I get it, it won't be like this next time. ”
Hokage looked at her for a long time and asked, "... What is Konoha to you?"
Yuhime was visibly surprised, "Konoha is home to me, and everyone in Konoha is my family..."
"Compared to Sasuke Uchiha, Konoha is important... He?"
Yuhime lowered her head, silent for a long time, not knowing how to answer.
Hokage said calmly, "You go back." ”
