Chapter 31: Life is not death

Early the next morning.

Orochimaru explained the old man's situation to Chihiro, and bluntly said that the old man would not survive for three months, so let him come back first, and the time of special training could be postponed.

The old man made a mistake.

Orochimaru is not a person who thinks about others, he is extremely egoistic, other people's thoughts have nothing to do with him, he only follows his own ideas.

As long as the mind is clear, he can do anything, good or bad.

On the contrary, it is useless to beg him.

Last night, the old man begged Orochimaru not to tell Chihiro the news of his checkmate, but Orochimaru felt that if he did that, Chihiro might blame him in the future, so he didn't want to cause such trouble.

When Chihiro returned home, she sensed it and found the old man in the tree.

In the treehouse, the old man was hunched up, his cloudy gaze was a little dazed, and many memories of Chihiro appeared and disillusioned in his mind.

Chihiro is a traverser, and the old man doesn't know.

But the old man knows that Chihiro has a problem.

Get along day and night, and the old man can naturally discover a lot of things without deliberately observing.

Chihiro's precociousness, sensibility, age-appropriate wisdom, and some innate habits, including actions and diction, and even Chihiro's frequent disguises...... All this was seen by the old man.

Especially those who are self-taught.

The old man once used perceptual ninjutsu to discover Chihiro's secret cultivation, and many conjectures arose at that time.

The old man even wondered if his grandson was possessed by an evil god...

Once this thought arises, it never lingers.

But what can be done?

Seeing that there is only such a lone seedling left in the flower family!

Even if it's really an evil god's possession, what can it do?

Is it possible to kill this only seedling with your own hands?

During that time, the old man thought a lot.

However, he really didn't have a choice.

No matter what lives in his grandson's body, it is always the blood and blood of his Hua family.

In the end, the old man chose to remain silent, and he pretended not to notice.

Including Chihiro's other abnormalities, the old man chose to turn a blind eye when he saw it.

And fortunately in the misfortune, Chihiro has a normal mind in addition to those abnormalities.

Chihiro became more and more obedient to his grandfather, and even called him filial.

Whether it is the attitude or some details of the usual, he respects him as a grandfather and cares about it.

The old man knew that this could not be disguised.

Later, slowly the old man also figured it out.

If the newborn soul is a blank piece of paper, then his grandson is just a little more on the blank paper, as long as Chihiro recognizes him as a grandfather, it is actually not so difficult to accept.

Later, with the passage of time, even if there were more suspicions, with the daily getting along and companionship, a deep bond was finally born, and it did not wither because of those suspicions.

It's just that this time flies too quickly......

"Alas~"

The old man sighed leisurely.

However, when I was sad, I heard the familiar voice coming from behind me.

"What's that, grandpa me, or, let's talk?"

At the entrance of the treehouse, Chihiro, who had just come up, asked cautiously.

When the old man heard the voice, his body trembled slightly, but when he turned around, his face had returned to the stereotypical expression he had used to have.

"What are you doing when you come back?"

"You didn't say you weren't allowed to come back after you moved in."

"Your teacher didn't say he was going to take you out for special training."

"Yes, then I have to come back to say goodbye to you before I go out, after all, I am in this world, and you are the only relative."

“…… That's goodbye, let's go. ”

"Actually......"

Chihiro hesitated for a moment, thought for a moment, looked up at the sky again, and said, "I don't know if you know, the second generation of adults once developed a forbidden technique, a forbidden technique that can recall the soul of the dead from the Pure Land, and that technique is in that scroll. ”

The old man's body trembled when he heard this, "So, what do you want to say?" ”

"Looks like you know."

"I've seen the second generation use it, and I've heard the first generation and the second generation argue, the first generation thinks that driving the souls of the dead like that is disrespectful to the dead, and at the same time, this technique will destroy the order of the world's operation, and if it is used wantonly, it is likely to bring disaster to the ninja world."

"Then, if I don't use it wantonly on you, will you forgive me for being disrespectful to you?"

"Huh?" The old man was shocked, "You, you, Chihiro, you ......"

"Look, if I really become the Hokage as you want, the coronation ceremony or something, shouldn't you come back and see it?"

"Well, that, this, if you can do it......"

"Don't worry, you can definitely do this, and if I encounter a crisis that I can't solve, can I also ask you to come up and help me?"

"Of course, if there is danger, even your parents and grandmothers, including the ancestors of the Jianhua family, you can also recall them together."

"Then you have to help me tell them okay first when you go down, otherwise I will blame you when the time comes."

"If it were your parents and your grandmother, I wouldn't blame you, as for the ancestors, you wait for me to go down and ask first."

"Well, then you can praise me more when you go down, and you can talk when I see them later."

"Hahaha, no problem."

"Hehe, then you have to mention me more in front of the first generation of adults after you go down, I am the only one who has learned Mu Dun, and I can be regarded as his successor."

"Hahaha, of course it's fine."

"Hahaha, then it's so decided, grandpa."

"Okay, good, rest assured ......"

……

In this way, when the topic is deviated, the matter of life and death has inexplicably become a topic that can be talked about.

Regarding the regulations and various matters related to the old man's death to go to the Pure Land, the grandfather and grandson also drew up some plans.

Chihiro even asked the old man to prepare some of the deceased's body tissues for him during the time before he died, preferably someone familiar to the old man.

After all, if you want to summon your parents or ancestors in the future, you can't dig the graves of your elders by yourself.

And the most critical condition for the forbidden technique of reincarnation of the dirty earth is that the body tissue of the deceased needs to be used as a medium.

He had already explained these to the old man.

In the end, in addition to talking about going to the Pure Land, the old man made some new plans for Chihiro's future path.

After the boundary between life and death was blurred by Chihiro's use of the Filthy Earth Reincarnation Technique, many of the old man's thoughts and concepts also changed.

On this day, the old man said a lot.

For the first time, Chihiro also told the old man about her plans for the future.

Include some ideas for the combination of martial arts and natural energy.

And the old man really knows the natural energy.

It's just that it's not as Chihiro thinks, where did I learn from the first generation.

Instead, there are some relevant records about natural energy in an ancient book collected by the Hua family himself.

The old man gave the ancient book to Chihiro and asked him to study it himself in the future.

Eventually, although Chihiro mentions martial arts, she doesn't explain where they came from.

Chihiro actually knew that the old man must have found something.

Get along day and night, he knows a lot of things that he can't hide from the old man, but the old man didn't ask, and he didn't say anything.

In the end, I didn't mention it tacitly.
