Chapter 6: Rites of Passage

and the tenacity that still maintains his enthusiasm and yearning for a better life despite great changes, which is also very worthy of recognition.

Later, the growing up Gu Shanbu Shui was defeated many times in the graduation assessment of the Konoha Village Ninja School, and he was a little depressed, and occasionally went home to recuperate and relax, and complained to the familiar maids.

An accident after drinking to drown his sorrows, so that the two of them should not have an intimate relationship, after which Hongye also treated each other with tolerance, and Gu Shanbushui was fortunate to think that it was a coming-of-age ceremony like "Baoyu's first taste of clouds and rain".

As for the secret knot of the pearl fetus and the birth of a child, I really haven't thought about it once.

The management of the Gushan family's inner government is still quite strict, and the personal maid has been accepted as a concubine or raised as an outer room because of the favor of the master's family, but the son of the sect has a very serious matter, and it is not allowed to be sloppy.

Generally, drunken accidents like ancient cedar water and red leaves will be dealt with by special subordinates, and unplanned offspring will not be born, so as not to cause more uncontrollable trouble.

Later, Gu Shanbu Shui had to take leave to go home because of unexpected development, and missed the seemingly dangerous Nine-Tails attack on the village, but the actual control of the big event that can safely brush the sense of existence, and when the daughter was born, after being named Xiang Lian by her mother, it was even more shocking to Gu Shanbu Shui.

After staying in Konoha Village for so many years, Naruko, Sawako, Tsuneko, and Ningzi didn't show up, and a incense burn suddenly appeared in their house, which was really unprepared.

This change is still under my nose, and it happened in such a grand way.

From the day he was born, the presence of the ancient cedar water began to affect the surrounding area.

When an heir is born, the Furusugi clan will pray for the blessing of the heir in the name of doing good deeds and accumulating virtue, pardon criminals, forgive debts, repair bridges and roads, hold temple fairs, comfort orphans and widows, support the poor and so on.

The most commonly used, of course, is to adopt poor families who cannot support abandoned women, or displaced refugee children, which is simple and convenient to operate, and it would be great if there were individual talented heroes who could become the wings of the heirs.

The future of children is unpredictable, the most valuable investment is education, the Gushan family is not a nouveau riche without a background, how to pass on the family name, quite experienced.

It just so happened that at that time, the situation of the Vortex Country was quite dangerous, and the Uzumaki family was also a thousand-year-old family, so they would not be stupid enough to pin all their hopes on Konoha Village, who was deeply involved in the Second Ninja World War.

The gifted Uzumaki Kushina was sent to Konoha Village with his family inheritance as the seed of revival, and the other classes naturally had scattered arrangements.

The Uzumaki family was unexpectedly exterminated, and there were not only one or two refugees from the Vortex Country who went to the territory of the Fusugi family to avoid trouble, nor was it possible for the newborn Fusugi Busui to find any key people such as Fuso, Ise, and Nagato.

These nobles in the Fire Nation did not expect that the value of the Vortex people would be so great. Adopting a group of people is regarded as charity, and after the country died, no one even cared where they came from or what their names were, and Xianglian's mother was adopted in the nursing home after being named "Red Leaves" like a code name.

When Gu Shanbushui grew up, so many years have passed, who still cares about the bad things a few years ago? wouldn't have expected that the maid big sister who had known each other since childhood was actually Xianglian's mother.

There are not necessarily many surprises, but there are many shocks.

Because he was so shocked, Gu Shanbushui didn't have time to think about the secret behind it, and when his father brought up the old story again, he suddenly realized that there might really be some unknown promoters.

Gusugi Masakoto sighed slightly, sat up straight, and said earnestly:

"Your mother told me privately that it was a real headache to give birth to your uneasy child, but ...... I'm proud too! The home of cutting ice, the people are responsible, climbing high and looking far away, it is easy to ignore the dust under your feet. Treating other people as human beings, rather than domesticated livestock, is a rather rare noble quality. With such a you, it is estimated that it is difficult to count on the decisiveness and ruthlessness required to 'gain power', but you have a talent for 'winning people', and if you can convince a group of capable talents, your achievements will be higher than all your predecessors......"

In other words, if the conditions are right, you can play a similar effect of the invincible benevolent, the expectations of the people, and the favor of the destiny, but if the luck is not good, it is estimated that it will be a tragedy of ill-fated fate.

Fortunately, there is a big stage for the Gushan family to display to its heart's content.

"How does this sound like a tactful statement with low eyes and low skills?"

Gu Shanbu Shui laughed a few times disappreciatively, if there is really a sleeping dragon and phoenix, and the five tiger generals will assist at the same time, mediocre people can also make a career, right?

"Does this have anything to do with the autumn leaves?"

Furusugi Masakoto glared at his son angrily and said:

"Someone is tempting to weaken your position. As I said before, you are not a flawless gentleman, but there are no very bad rumors, only too close to the Konoha ninja and the news of the illegitimate daughter circulating in a small area have lowered your image......"

"What's the use of that? Anyway, I'm the rightful heir to the family......"

Gu Shanbu Shui shrugged disappreciatively, with the name and instrument in hand, as long as he didn't make a mistake, no one could rob him.

The old father reminded faintly:

"Don't forget how your cousin was ousted. There is a precedent, which is bound to make some people think differently! ”

"That's it!"

Gu Shanbushui, who had not taken it to heart, was shocked, and after a moment of silence, he nodded in understanding.

The last heir of the Gushan family, who is also the cousin of Gushan Bushui's mother, has not had too many bad rumors since he was a child, and later seems to have been "misled" by some new era doctrines that are not accepted by the mainstream, and began to advocate ideas such as natural human rights, equality of all beings, breaking barriers, and eliminating privileges.

The cousin, who was too advanced in his thinking and betrayed his class, not only thought so, said so, but was ready to do so, and even co-opted a large number of young people to prepare for a big fight.

Afterward...... There was no later.

My cousin began to recuperate from illness, and lived in seclusion because of mental problems, and the guests were dismissed one after another.

At the beginning, the young Gu Shanbu Shui was also led by his parents to visit the sick, at that time, his spirit was not bad, and he was also very kind to the little nephew, but others were afraid that the Gu Shanbu Shui, who was "not deeply involved in the world", was also "bewitched", and never let the two come into contact again.

"Uncle, I haven't seen you for many years, but then I heard about ...... Is he really crazy? ”

Rumors are like knives, killing people and punishing hearts.

The previous term was "taken down" for special reasons, which is estimated to make people think that this term can also be concocted in the same way.

The accident on Momiji's body, and the birth of Xiang Lian are just a small test, and it is estimated that there will be more ruthless tricks later.

Furusugi Masakoto responded lightly:

"Your uncle, don't worry, I have arrangements with your mother! Now that you are twenty years old, you can no longer shirk all kinds of mistakes in the name of a child. Are you ready to meet those swords? ”

"Don't worry, Father! Whether it's embarking on the path of a ninja, being a gentleman, or being a governor, I'm better than you think! ”

"Well, next week's opening ceremony, you can bring Xianglin to report! I appeared in public, and it was a little difficult to explain, so you don't have any point, and it is only natural for a father to send his daughter to school, ......"

"Huh? It's not interesting to say that! Didn't you come here just to give a gift of incense and endorse the existence of their mother and daughter? ”

Now that he has made a public appearance and entered the ninja school in Konoha Village, it is naturally impossible not to have a background and followers.

"I've got a lot to do! Another father is worried about his rebellious son who has run away from home, I have to explain a little and dispel his misunderstanding, and you have to arrange a lot of things......"

"And what shall I say?"

The "eternal predecessors" collapsed and sank into the sand, and then sent the illegitimate daughter to inherit the unfinished business?
