"Don't be afraid, get some rest."

In the room, in the kind face of the Yuan Master, there was also compassion, gently stroking the hair on the top of Terumi's forehead, and the tone was like the best lullaby, making Terumi's eyelids flutter constantly, but he didn't dare to really close his eyes.

Lying on the bed, her body was also tense, her hand holding the quilt was constantly trembling, her body and mind were exhausted to the extreme, but she didn't dare to sleep.

Not only what happened yesterday in the Daimyo's Mansion, but also . In the shadows, she is obviously a companion, but she is like a torture enemy, and she is always attacked and interrogated when she is most mentally vulnerable.

This made Terumi Ming's subconscious begin to feel that once she was sleepy, she would encounter more painful things, even if at this time, her brain was blank and she couldn't process any information, but she still refused to rest.

Yuan Shi looked at the girl, sighed, gently took his hand away from her head, and said as if talking about a story: "Your teacher is half a child of the old man, and he grew up watching the old man.

When he was an adult, he said to the old man. He will take care of the old man like his own father, and if he dies in the middle of a mission, his children will help him with that mission.

It's a pity that the ninja world is too cruel."

Yuan Shi shook his head, changed his posture slightly, and continued: "But that kid is very optimistic about you, when he was in the ninja class to select the members of the lower ninja, he only chose you alone.

He said to the old man. It's like what he imagined his future child to look like

Please allow the old man to be presumptuous, child. Are you willing to help your teacher fulfill his mission? ”

In fact, what Master Yuan said, Zhao Meiming didn't listen to it at all, but when she heard that she had completed the mission for her teacher, she nodded subconsciously.

Yuan Shi smiled, but the teeth that were almost lost made his smile look a little funny, but it was also not aggressive, which greatly disintegrated Terumi's defenses.

"Then close your eyes."

The faint sound like the beating of a Buddha bowl sounded again, and Zhao Meiming obediently closed her eyes, and the Yuan Master didn't say anything more, just sat on the side and slowly looked away.

Between breathing, due to old age and illness, the faint sound of empty drums coming from the lungs was like the best white noise, and Terumi's body gradually relaxed, and finally, with a slight tilt of the head, she finally fell asleep.

Yuan Shi then got up with a long stick, gently moved out of the room, outside the door, there was a young man waiting, seeing Yuan Shi come out, he hurriedly helped, Yuan Shi nodded, and the two left quietly.

It wasn't until he was far away that the young man said, "Elder Yuanshi, the fourth generation has asked you to come over to attend the meeting." ”

"If you don't go, you can't walk anymore."

Yuan Shi waved his hand, of course he knew what Goji Yakura had asked him to do, it was nothing more than two things, one was to ask him why he wanted to take Terumi from the shadows, and force him to at least give up a little favor.

The second is to use this favor to ask him to endorse the war, after all, the prestige he has accumulated over the years is still very useful.

Yuan Shi doesn't plan to let Goji Yakura get his wish, how old is he, being held accountable by a young man, doesn't he want to lose face? It is even more impossible to endorse the war, but he has been against the war since the second generation.

If you really want to be held accountable, then come to him in person, this old guy, if you dare to come, he will die at any time to show the old bones to the wolf, and it depends on whether the wolfberry Yakura is reluctant.

"Qing, it's just that I'm going to work hard for you next, I'm afraid that the people around the old man will be transferred away one by one, you, Quan Bingwei"

Yuan Shi sighed, sat down with Qing's support, and let go of Yuan Shi's hand, Qing shook his head and said, "Elder Yuan Shi, this is just my duty as a ninja in Fog Hidden Village.

Even if there is no deliberate transfer of the four generations, once the war breaks out, as the village of the upper ninja, I will serve the village on the battlefield. ”

"When you go to the battlefield, don't be too impulsive, war doesn't have to fight to the death, if you really meet an invincible person, you have to retreat, you can always do more while you live."

Yuan Shi instructed, Qing nodded, and seeing that Yuan Shi still wanted to admonish, he diverted the topic and said, "By the way, Elder Yuan Shi, I heard from someone from the dark department that the four generations have already determined the killing of the alliance mission.

It is said that it was done by Konoha, and it is too blunt to incite public anger so bluntly."

"Child's play? Arbitrary? Be a law onto oneself? ”

Yuan Shi looked at Qing, Qing nodded, but Yuan Shi shook his head and said: "There is no evidence, but the truth cannot be demonstrated, and it is not that you can't guess the truth without evidence." ”

"Huh? Are you saying that this thing was really done by Konoha? ”

Qing was a little incredulous and said, "But. . . How did Konoha know about our alliance with Sand Hidden Village and Cloud Hidden Village? When it was clear that when the alliance was signed before, Konoha didn't intervene, and now it comes to destroy it after the alliance is formed, is it useless? ”

"Destroying the alliance is useless for Konoha."

After Yuan Shi finished speaking, he glanced at Qing's bewildered expression before he said, "You have also read the information on the alliance, why do you want to form an alliance?" ”

Qing frowned and said, "Yunyin Village was forced to sign a non-aggression pact with Konoha, and after Yun Shinobi withdrew from the battlefield, neither Iwa Shinobi nor Sand Shinobi could give Konoha enough pressure, and even retreated. ”

These conditions were not concealed when the alliance was formed, after all . The purpose of the alliance is to defeat Konoha, if Konoha is already a candle in the wind, then why do you still form an alliance? Does Dora's side share the cake?

Yuan Shi nodded and said, "Then let me ask you again, what do you think of the strength of our Fog Ninja compared to the power of Yun Ninja?" ”

Qing pondered for a moment and replied: "In the continuous civil strife, the overall strength of our Wuyin Village should not be as good as that of Yunyin Village, which has been stationed for many years. ”

"So, Konoha was able to hold the battle line under the offensive of Yun Shinobi, Iwa Shinobi, and Sand Shinobi, and even pushed back one of them to defeat Yun Shinobi, but he didn't attack the other two villages for a long time, why?"

"You can't say that, can you? The reason why Yun Shinobi was defeated was not because Sakamoto Tatsuma hijacked the tailed beast and threatened the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Thunder, so Thunder Shadow had to admit surrender?

According to their information, before Sakamoto Tatsuma hijacked the tailed beast, these three parties were dominant, and even Konoha had reached the critical point of life and death, and Sakamoto Tatsuma was lucky to get out of Konoha's predicament. ”

"But the fact is that Konoha defeated Yunyin Village and returned a large number of forces, but he never launched a decisive war against the other two villages, do you think Sakamoto Tatsuma is a person who dare not gamble?"

After Yuan Shi asked, Qing shook his head, daring to directly exchange the battlefield with Yun Ren, and lead a team to directly reach the hinterland of the Land of Thunder, how could a person who sought a glimmer of life in the midst of death not dare to bet?

After shaking his head, Qing also reacted and said, "Konoha's intention is not to win, but to drag down other villages and erase the losses caused by the siege of many parties?"

The reason why Yun Shinobi was defeated first was because Konoha could not fight against Yun Shinobi, Sand Shinobi, and Iwa Shinobi at the same time, but . Our fog ninja is not as good as cloud ninja, within the acceptable range of Konoha? ”

"You can see through this, you haven't followed the old age in vain all these years."

Yuan Shi nodded and continued: "Now speaking of which, do you know who the person who killed the Covenant Mission? ”

"Konoha."

Qing said firmly: "They are not stopping the attack on Konoha launched by the Misty Shinobi after the Covenant was reached, or even Konoha is contributing to all this, but at the same time, Konoha also expects to see a civil war between the three sides of the Covenant."

But Elder Yuanshi, why don't you go to the meeting and tell the rest of the village about this? If Konoha succeeds, countless mist ninjas will die on the battlefield. ”

As he spoke, he showed an anxious look, and the Yuan Master sighed again and said, "You still forgot what the old man said? ”

"Huh?"

"War. It's not that you have to fight to the death, casualties, victory or defeat, it's not everything about the war, what the fourth generation wants to take is just the old road of the second generation. ”

Yuan Shi said, with compassion and powerlessness in his eyes, and said: "The old decay couldn't stop the second generation of the eyes back then, and now, with the ruined body of the old decay, how can you stop the young and vigorous and high-spirited four generations?" ”

Qing opened his mouth and said, "That."

Seeing that he couldn't speak, Yuan Shi shook his head and said, "War is a struggle for survival for every soldier, but . . For some, it's just a game of chess.

Will you grieve for a pawn that has been captured? ”

Qing was silent, and Master Yuan was relieved: "So, on the battlefield, your duty is to survive, as for meritorious service, victory, and winning the future, that is what the trader needs, not what you need."

If there's anything else you want to do, try to keep more of your peers alive, understand? ”

"I see."

For the first time in his life, Qing felt that he didn't even have the strength to speak in a normal tone.

Yuan Shi leaned back in his chair, squinted his eyes, and said, "The old man wants to take a rest, you go. Let's sort out Shinsuke Takasugi's information. ”

"Isn't it certain that Shinsuke Takasugi is Tatsuma Sakamoto?"

"We're just sure, that kid doesn't know yet, we have to let her know who the enemy is, so that she knows how to live, otherwise she can only be trapped in confusion."

After the Yuan Master finished speaking, Qing showed a look of doubt and asked, "Could it be. Can you be sure that the person who shot was Tatsuma Sakamoto? ”

"Almost, Konoha is a lot of talented young people, but if you want to do everything yesterday, there are not many, even if it is not Sakamoto Tatsuma himself, it is his command and control.

In short, it wouldn't be wrong to let Terumi that kid target Tatsuma Sakamoto, because.

If the enemy is Sakamoto Tatsuma, she will always work hard to improve, and I am afraid that she will not be complacent in her life, this is the future that Fog Hidden Village needs. ”

Qing Wenyan nodded, because Sakamoto Tatsuma. Just knowing his deeds, you won't breed the idea of going directly to revenge, and the sense of oppression that can be brought to people just by writing it is too strong.

If you aim for such a person, I'm afraid you have to chase it all your life, and it's hard to catch it, right? But it's okay, so that the child will not be sent to death, but will work hard, try hard and work hard to live and struggle.

"I see, Elder Yuanshi."
