Chapter 46: A Simple Deal
...
This is really a hot piece of gossip.
Asuka put down the canned meat in his hand, then took some water and put it in front of the orange cat, his eyes lit up.
"Although there is no such thing in the ninja world, isn't the person of Raksha notoriously single-minded?"
The orange cat looked down and sniffed the fragrant can and continued.
That's all I heard, and the male ninja couldn't wait to get up and down after he finished talking.
I thought they would continue to talk afterwards, so I lay down at the bedroom window until dawn.
As a result, I waited all night in vain. ”
"What a pity!"
Asuka shook her head, then said with a serious expression.
"Next time, don't squat until dawn, everyone in Shayin Village knows that you are my psychic beast, so it is easy to be misunderstood that I want to spy on Shayin's intelligence."
The orange cat took a bite of the can and muttered.
"You're right, I was almost found that morning."
Asuka frowned and hurriedly asked.
"And then?"
The orange cat patted his chest, and said slowly with a humane look of happiness on his face.
"When it was almost dawn, the man came back, and then the male ninja in the bedroom was about to open the window and run away through the curtains.
I wasn't there at the window, and he almost pushed me down.
Then I got angry and kicked him through the window and back into the house.
Later, the family started a fight, and the eyes of the pedestrians on the street were fixed on the house, and they did not notice me. ”
Host??
Asuka froze in his hand, and said in some surprise.
"So, the man and woman you heard talking in the middle of the night were cheating??"
"That's right!"
The orange cat nodded affirmatively, and then it said half-lying on the table, half-eyelids down.
"How can normal people have so much gossip."
"Which household?"
It glanced at Asuka suspiciously, and its tone was full of scrutiny.
"Why, you want to cheat too?
Although the man's mistress can't count on two hands, I don't think she'll have anything to do with you, the Konoha ninja, if she wants to gain a foothold in the future in the future. ”
Bah!
Spat at the orange cat, Asuka cocked Erlang's legs, and said with a disdainful expression.
"Just ask.
We've known each other for so many years, have you ever seen me have contact with that kind of person? ”
“....”
The orange cat nodded subconsciously, it thought that the only woman who had been in contact with the indecent woman for so many years might be the proprietress of the magazine seller in the village.
"Her family lives at No. 77 Piaoxue Street in the desert, and the male owner is a shinobi, who has a good reputation in the neighborhood and is a well-known honest person.
The hostess's name is truth, although she looks average, her body is really hot, and she is as sassy as the stinky foxes who show off their postures.
Not only does she like to hook up with married men, but she also likes to hook up with married women.
She always takes advantage of her man's mission to bring others into the house.
I've seen it with my own eyes a dozen times. ”
At this time, I saw it stretching on the table, and said in a tone full of gossip.
"By the way, the truth recently found a new lover, his name is Yuzo, and he has something to do with Chiyo."
"He's Chiyo's concubine?"
"That's not, he's an apprentice of Chiyo's younger brother Ebizo.
When I passed by the capital of the Land of Wind at the previous time, I heard the cat in the Daimyo's mansion say that the Daimyo's concubine found a guardian ninja to be the concubine, and that person was also called Yuzo. ”
"Are they the same person?"
"I guess... There should be no duplicate name in the sand. ”
Hearing this, Asuka had a look of emotion on his face.
Ebizo's apprentice is playing a lot.
But this is also normal, this group of ninjas often wander on the verge of death, resulting in a more or less perverted heart.
In the past, when he was in Konoha, he could often hear who cheated on whom.
But the honest man didn't divorce his wife, which once again refreshed Asuka's understanding of the word "patience".
Thinking of this, he gave the orange cat a thumbs up and praised.
"Feifei, you really have a set of gossip collection."
Hearing the bird praising himself, the orange cat raised the corners of his mouth, and the teeth in his mouth were exposed, and he smiled.
"It's not easy, and you've finally discovered the merits."
"yes!"
Asuka pulled the fat on the orange cat and sighed.
"The reason why I signed you in the first place, in addition to being fat and cute, was mainly because I wanted to use you as a pillow.
But I didn't expect the hair loss to be so severe..."
"It's too much!"
Seeing that the bird was about to mention its black history, the hair on its body immediately exploded, and the words were not good.
"Bastard, do you dare to say that when you signed the psychic contract with me, you didn't have the idea of me using transformation techniques and turning into a cat lady?"
"You've gotten so fat that I've completely lost interest in creatures like cat girls."
"Give me death!"
in the room.
The roar of cats, the gasps of birds, and the sound of broken plates did not subside for a long time.
...
Three days later.
"Harm, mother-in-law, you can't bear to see geniuses end up in waste, right?"
Boom!
Kankuro covered his head, as if he had a mask of pain on his face, and he glanced at his mother, who was clenched into fists, and said with some grievance.
"What are you hitting me for?
I just want to learn puppetry, with my mother-in-law, and practice the opening line. ”
"Where did you learn that?"
Karuro stared at her son with an ugly face, she couldn't understand why her well-behaved son could say such things that made people feel idiotic when he heard it.
"In the past two days, I can often hear Brother Asuka talking to himself there, learning from him."
Uchiha Asuka?
Hearing the name, Karura's brows tightened together, and she wondered.
"What have you been learning from him all this time?"
"Puppetry!"
"He can puppetry?"
"Hmm!"
Kankuro nodded very seriously, and then he raised his finger and said with a serious face.
"He told me that the only weakness of puppetry, is the human body, so I should build my body well.
That way, even if the enemy bypasses the puppet and fights me at close range, I can kick him back.
He's also...."
"Stop! Stop! ”
Garura quickly interrupted what his son was about to say.
She recuperated for two months, and she didn't take care of Kanjiuro for two months, how did he become like this.
After taking a few deep breaths, she grabbed Kankuro's arm and said sternly.
"From now on, you go and learn what puppetry-chan is with Chiyo-sama, and don't use the kind of opening sentence that makes people listen to idiots.
So as not to upset Chiyo-sama. ”
"Oh~"
Kankuro let out a dry sigh.
This opening statement was specially asked by Asuka for advice.
He still remembers, Asuka patted himself on the shoulder.
[Kankuro, Chiyo's mother-in-law is now in retirement, and she won't easily accept you as an apprentice.
But as long as you learn puppetry, a person who doesn't know how to puppetry, for two months, Chiyo will take you in if she grits her teeth in order not to let the future genius of the village die.
When the time comes, you will say that when you meet... The success rate has been greatly improved...]
...
Squeak!
With the sound of pushing the door, Kankuro, who was following behind his mother, saw the room in front of him, which was too big to see.
It's huge!
After entering the door, he glanced at the somewhat empty room, and Kankuro couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
There was no furniture in this room.
There is a pool in the middle of the house, but I don't know if there are any fish in it.
Just as he was distracted, Karura had already come to Ebizo's side and told him what he was trying to do.
Chiyo's gaze then fell on Kankuro.
She looked at Kankuro who was looking around, thinking of the puppeteer knowledge that Asuka had taught her that had nothing to do with the puppeteer, and after sighing lightly, her voice was old.
"I'll give him a little bit of the basics.
Yuzo, you go to my room and find some basic puppets. ”
"Yes!"
"Thank you, Chiyo-sama!"
Karuro nodded in thanks, she knew that the other party could teach Kankuro, and it was very likely that she was looking at Luo Sha's face.
Then... Kankuro's gaze suddenly fell on the ninja who had turned away.
It turns out that Yuzo is this guy!
A child's eyes can't hide things.
Ebizo, who was fishing, looked at his back with reverence in his eyes, and said kindly.
"Kankuro, what are you thinking?"
"Huh?"
Kankuro picked his nose like a bird, and said in a milk voice.
"Yuzo is a real ninja, he can withstand the impact of more than 300 catties, and use his strong willpower to complete the impossible task."
???
The three people who listened to these words had a question mark in their heads.
Syllable!
The sound of the fishing rod falling to the ground in his hand woke up Ebizo, and he recalled what Kankuro had just said, looked at the other party's reverent eyes, and hesitated.
"Where did you hear that?"
"When I was playing at Big Brother Asuka's house, I listened to the cat."
Hearing this, Ebizo's face also showed a sudden look, he glanced at Kankuro who was left by his ears, and then his eyes fell on his sister Chiyo, and said slowly.
"Sister, the one that weighs more than 300 pounds... It should be the one next to the Daimyo, right? ”
Chiyo glanced at Ebizo, then picked up the fishing rod and said as she shook the hook.
"The daimyo cut the funds, and you want to add some funds through the briefings of the people around him.
Although the plan is a bit unruly, it is one of the few attempts that can be made in the current situation. ”
"The village's funding has reached a critical point, otherwise it wouldn't have used this method."
Ebizo put down the fishing rod, sighed and stood up, and said.
"Sister, I'll take a trip."
Well!
Looking at the back of Ebizo's departure, Chiyo slowly closed his eyes, and the whole person sat there motionless as if he was in a state of flux.
Daimyo...
I don't know if the village still has the ability to start a war more than ten years later.
...
"Ebizo-sama!"
"Hmm!"
"Ebizo-sama, where are you going?"
"Take it easy!"
Greeting pedestrians on the street along the way, Ebizo's mind also worked.
It seems that the other party has known about this matter for a long time, and I don't know what he wants with this handle?
And this matter, Konoha's people shouldn't know, otherwise he wouldn't be able to hear the wind at all, with the relationship between Uchiha and Konoha, he probably wouldn't tell that group of high-level people about it.
Although the dead keep secrets, no one knows whether the dead will leave behind them in their lifetime.
If the matter is revealed, the daimyo is likely to cut his already small expenses by a few more points.
Shaking his head, Ebizo went straight to Asuka's house.
"Yo!"
Opening the door and looking at Ebizo standing outside the door, Asuka was a little surprised.
"Lord Ebizo, I haven't seen you for months, and you're still so energetic."
"He~he~"
Ebizo stroked his beard and smiled kindly, his eyes flashed after glancing at the cat on the table in the room, and he smiled.
"Go in and talk about it?"
"Good!"
Asuka brought in Ebizo, then poured a glass of boiled water for the other party and asked.
"Seeing that I'm going back to Konoha, you're going to send me off in advance?"
"It's not!"
Taking the water cup handed by the other party, Ebizo put it on the table, and said in an old voice.
"The old man doesn't go around with you young man.
That thing... You got it, right? ”
Looking at Ebizo's determined expression, Asuka glanced at the orange cat sleeping on the paralyzed table, and then landed on him, speechless.
"The story of your apprentice and three hundred catties?"
The corners of Ebizo's mouth twitched, he looked at Asuka's speechless eyes, and said slowly.
"It's just a bad idea for the future of the village."
If it weren't for the financial difficulties of Sha Yin, it would actually be a good idea to take care of those nobles and let them go to the ears of the daimyo.
Pity... Lack of financial resources... The daimyo doesn't want the female ninja to get close...
Only choose the most money-saving method.
"Bad idea, indeed..."
Asuka nodded in agreement.
To be honest, he never dreamed of attacking the people around the daimyo.
When he was on a D-class mission, it wasn't that he hadn't seen the taste of the daimyo.
All it can be said is... Hunting...
"Young man, how can we prevent this from becoming known to all?"
A very old voice pulled Asuka back from his fantasy, and he looked at Ebizo's smiling eyes and wondered.
"You buried the daimyo concubine's room unknowingly, doesn't this matter mean that it didn't happen?"
"Your idea is really dangerous."
Seeing the serious expression on his face, Ebizo sighed a little.
"It is said that Madara Uchiha didn't have a good impression of the nobles back then, and he once wanted to unify the ninja world, if it weren't for the presence of the Thousand Hands Pillar, the nobles would be in danger.
However, according to you, this should be up to you and the cat. ”
After a pause, he looked at Asuka with a kind face and continued.
"Young man, can this matter be kept secret from the old man?"
"Yes!"
Asuka nodded dryly.
Gossip is just enjoyable to listen to, and forget about it after a while.
At this moment, Hai Laozang was stunned, he looked at the bird that simply agreed to him, and hesitated a little.
"No conditions?"
"Nope."
"Don't want money?"
"I have money."
"Women?"
"I'm clean, I'm still a virgin."
"Ninjutsu?"
"I've copied nearly a thousand ninjutsu... If you use ten a day, you have to use it for half a year. ”
"That..."
Asuka looked at Ebizo with a toothache, and when he saw that the other party was going to say something, he immediately stretched out his right hand and pointed to the sky, and swore.
"I swear by the honor of the Uchiha.
I just listen to gossip about you, and I don't have any idea of spreading it.
Now Konoha is the only one I know about it with the three cats.
In the future, Konoha is also known to me and the three cats.
You have to believe me, I'm the tightest man in the Uchiha. ”
After hearing that Uchiha Asuka actually swore an oath with his family honor, Ebizo's eyelids instantly raised.
He looked the bird up and down for a while, and said secretly.
The Uchiha family values the honor of the family more than anything else.
Although he swore by the honor of the Uchiha family, it means that there is a 99% probability that this matter will not be leaked.
But after so many years of being in the ninja world, it is the first time I have met such a good talker.
This heart... Inevitably, some muttered.
If it weren't for the fear that the other side would have some unknown backhand, and restart the war.
He wanted to leave Asuka in the village now.
After pondering for a long time, Ebizo asked tentatively.
"Or... Do you order something? ”
Asuka shook his head firmly and refused.
"Don't."
"What's the matter?"
“???”
Asuka looked at Ebizo with a question mark and wondered.
"Didn't you Sha Yin lose no money?"
"You don't want to order anything, the old man is not at ease!"
Hearing this, the corners of Asuka's beak twitched twice and spoke.
"I'm a medical ninja, and I've heard a long time ago that Granny Chiyo has a medical forbidden technique, do you sell it?"
Sell?
He stared at Asuka Eyes, and after looking at the other party's clear eyes for a while, Ebizo said with some doubts.
"How much money do you pay?"
"Wait for me to withdraw the money."
With that, Asuka got up and went to the safe.
A moment later.
Syllable!
Ebizo looked at the coins that the other party threw on the table, and the eyes of the birds changed.
This guy is so sincere.
My sister's medical forbidden technique, self-reincarnation, a medical ninja who doesn't have a little level can't learn it at all.
According to my sister, there should be no more than five people in the entire ninja world who can learn the forbidden art in her hands.
Even if the ninjutsu learning conditions are harsh, the consequences are extremely serious.
He didn't believe that this Uchiha would be used by the higher-ups in Konoha.
Thinking of this, he looked down at the money on the table and said with some emotion.
"Save money and spend it..."
"I know it's all my heart.
Sand Yin makes money and Sand Yin flowers, and he doesn't take a cent home. ”
Listening to Asuka's sonorous voice, his face suddenly became serious, and Ebizo held Asuka's hand and said seriously.
"Wait."
With that, he got up and left Asuka's room, turned around and ran towards his residence.
With this money, the village was able to survive for a while.
As for the matter of Yuzo and three hundred catties...
He believed in this tight-mouthed Uchiha.
...
PS: 2-in-1.
I'll take a look at this chapter again, and I always feel that Ebizo is a little mentally retarded
