Escape From Konoha

Konoha, Uchiha clan.

In the snowy courtyard, the old man sat alone in the corridor with a fishing rod, fishing leisurely.

Soon, footsteps came from the corridor, and the old man turned his head slightly and saw Uchiha Lihuo walking towards him.

"Life after retirement is really comfortable, Elder Sifang."

Li Huo laughed teasingly.

"I'm getting old, but I don't want to be intrigued with others all day long."

The four elders said.

"Strange to say, the Hyuga family has become a lot more peaceful recently."

Lihuo touched his chin, as if thinking about something.

"Don't tell me this kind of thing to an old man."

"I just want you to refer to it. Maybe it will affect the Uchiha clan."

"Boring Q&A. What's your business with me?"

For the actions of the high-level officials, or the actions of the Sun Xiang family, the Sifang elders did not intend to pay attention, nor were they interested in learning about them.

More than this, he wanted to know whether the fish he caught later was fat or not, and whether the maid at home could make a taste that would satisfy him.

"Fuyue's child, do you know?"

Lihuo asked.

"The child with that girl named Mikoto? I remember the child was born in June this year."

Elder Sifang recalled it carefully and remembered this matter.

In June of this year, Uchiha Fuyake's child was born in the hospital. The elders of the four sides knew about this.

"Yes, that child's name is Uchiha Itachi."

"Itachi? Nice name. And what does this have to do with me?"

"Don't be so indifferent, elder. Fuyue wants you to wait for his children to grow up and accept them as disciples."

Lihuo said so.

"...My energy is not as good as before, and I also decided to ignore any external affairs. He is also the patriarch of Uchiha, can't he teach a child well?"

The eyes of the four elders were cold.

He knew very well what Fuyue meant.

He wants to use him, a retired old man, to increase the weight of the so-called patriarch and deter the radical clansmen.

It may also be a temptation to hope that this old man will accept his child as a disciple.

"I'm just passing on his meaning, there's no need to get mad at me, right?"

Li Huo scratched his head helplessly.

"After being the patriarch for only a few months, you dare to come and test my bottom line... Instead of wasting your energy on such boring tricks, you might as well focus your energy on how to unify the voices in the clan."

It took him a few years to build up enough prestige when he unified the voice of the radical faction in the clan, not all at once.

Fuyue has only been the patriarch for half a year, so he is so eager to complete a career that surpasses the previous generation. The elders of the four sides understand Fuyue's mentality. The less he gets, the more he wants to prove to others that he has these powers. This immature stubbornness is not a good thing for the family.

"Then shall I reply to him like this?"

"Let him perform well on the battlefield and don't think about messy things."

There was a deep disappointment on Sifangchang's face, but he still gave this advice.

Although he didn't have much expectations for the Uchiha family in the village, he didn't expect that less than half a year had passed, and Fuyue couldn't bear the pressure brought by the radicals, and asked him for help cryptically.

If you want to be cold-blooded to the clan, you can't harden your heart, and you want to be tolerant to the clan, but you are always dissatisfied with the militant thinking of the radicals, don't communicate with them, and just reject them.

He only hopes that through this war, Fuyue can mature, and stop looking at the family with such immature thinking.

However, the elders of Sifang also know that this kind of thing is very difficult. The negative power of Sharinyan is affecting people's thinking and character. Pessimists can only see pessimism in the eyes of pessimists. Fuyue was just one of the victims.

"Got it. I'll explain it to him."

Fire nodded.

He was only acting as a speaker. Seeing that the elders of the four sides were in a bad mood, he resigned and left.

In the cold and cold winter, you can still feel the warm sun shining from the sky.

Although the people of the land of ghosts are a little richer than before, they are still used to storing a lot of food at home and using it to survive the cold winter.

In this era when the labor force has not been greatly liberated, whether it is the people in the war zone or the people in the peaceful country, the way of life can be described as austere. Of course, the people of the country at war will have a more difficult life.

Before the new year festival, Shiraishi, who had nothing to do, once again took people to explore the rural areas of the country of ghosts.

The main roads between the towns in the country of ghosts have been leveled. Even if the construction of these roads requires passing through forests and mountains, they have been opened by professional ninjas. Roads to rural areas are also well under way. Some places are really remote and difficult to build, but considering the development plan for the next few years, this is also necessary.

Shiraishi does not expect to change the way of life of the people of this country all at once. Even a special professional like ninja, who has a lot of productivity, cannot completely change the way of life of a country in just one year. level.

Otherwise, the land of wind would have been able to use ninjutsu with water to build lakes, and the land of wind would not have regarded water sources as so important, and would have to import it to foreign countries every year, spending a lot of money.

Ninjutsu is time-sensitive, and so is the water flow created by the water escape. When the chakra in the water flow disappears, the water flow will naturally disappear, and the resulting lake will also disappear. It can be used to solve urgent needs, but with such a large population in the Land of Winds, it is not possible to solve urgent needs with water escape every time.

The same is true for the Earth Dun, Thunder Dun and other escape techniques. However, there are also special escape techniques that can be maintained. For example, Mudun.

Therefore, if the earth escape ninja does not learn professional knowledge of road construction, the road created will only last for a period of time, and then collapse immediately. Ninja's ninjutsu only accelerates the process, not one step, just use ninjutsu, you can do it once and for all. Otherwise, the existence of civilians is really meaningless.

However, as long as the ninjas are instilled with the corresponding construction knowledge, it is not a problem for them to be one hundred in the construction industry. Some special personnel can achieve the level of one-to-one thousand. For example, when Liuli opened Susanoo to transport building materials, Ayane used Shenkong to knock down old buildings, which can save a lot of manpower and material resources. The consumption of funds will also be relatively reduced.

Reasonable use of every resource in hand, neither underestimating the convenience brought by ninjutsu, nor neglecting the sense of honor of ordinary people participating in labor, is what Shiraishi asked to do.

The great era will come, not created by individuals, but by the entire human collective. Human history is made by the collective human beings, not by an individual. In this world, unorganized people can't do anything, that's human beings. Neither want to cater to the organization, but must rely on the strength of the organization to survive in this world.

Having inspected these remote rural areas, Shiraishi was generally satisfied. Although some areas are not very perfect, the serious work attitude of the subordinates should also be rewarded in a timely manner, rather than blindly attacking their enthusiasm.

After all, the New Year is coming. No matter how enthusiastic you are about your work, you will miss your parents and children at home and miss your wife. This is human nature.

Some employees have temporarily left to go home to reunite with their relatives, which has slowed down the project, but as long as it can be finished by the spring of next year, Shiraishi can't blame anything.

It took nearly half a month to inspect these places, and all of them were inspected, but some areas were immediately selected for work inspection.

Although I am willing to believe that the people under my hands will not gradually forget their original intentions because of their wealth, this trust is not an obligation that must be indulged. Shiraishi has always believed that without personal practice, there is no right to speak. It is also responsible for yourself.

◎

It snows at this time of year.

The stove in the room was burning, and the windows were dripping with dew.

After returning from the inspection mission, it was already dusk, and Shiraishi sat at the entrance and began to take off his shoes.

"It's a little early to come back this time."

Liuli, wearing home clothes, appeared behind Shiraishi and said these words.

In the future, when Shiraishi goes out to conduct inspections, it will take at least a month.

While taking off his shoes at home, Shiraishi turned his head slightly and smiled and said: "Because not every place is inspected, just randomly select a few places as key investigation targets. Of course, it is faster than usual inspections."

Bai Shi noticed that there were fewer slippers on the shoe cabinet, and asked in confusion, "Are you here?"

"Hmph, just look at it."

Liu Li snorted softly, turned around and walked in.

Shiraishi didn't care, came to the living room, and found that it was indeed someone coming.

And it's not a stranger either. Ruri's mother, Uchiha Miyoko, and Ayane are sitting there talking, and judging from the atmosphere of the conversation, they should get along pretty well.

Liu Li also sat across from them, picked up a teacup, and drank tea quietly.

Lights are turned on in the living room to fill the room with a bright and clean atmosphere.

"Little Baishi is back."

Miyoko greeted Shiraishi with a smile.

"yes."

"I always feel more and more manly. If my aunt was twenty years younger, she might catch up."

As a mother, Miyoko laughed in front of Liuli without fear of death.

As an active atmosphere, Shiraishi was worried that Liuli would immediately throw the cup in his hand and make his mother's head bloom.

But this kind of thing didn't happen, because Liuli was just drinking tea calmly, and she seemed to be used to her mother's off-line behavior.

"However, my aunt is old and degenerate now, and can no longer attract the attention of young people."

In Shiraishi's view, Miyoko, who wears gorgeous twelfth dresses anytime and anywhere, and keeps her appearance in her twenties, is the most unqualified person to say such things.

"No, Auntie looks very young now, like a teenage girl."

Ayane laughed aside.

"Ayane-chan is still so sweet, it would be nice if Xiao Liuli could do this too. Isn't it, Xiao Liuli?"

Miyoko covered her mouth and laughed lightly. Although she knew that Ayane was talking politely, she was still in a good mood when she was called a teenage girl, and then she hinted at Liuli with her eyes, as if she hoped that she would also say something to make people feel better. Happy compliments.

"Middle-aged women shouldn't pretend to be tender like little girls. Crow's feet appear when you laugh."

Ruri put down the teacup and said the words that made Miyoko's mouth twitch.

"Sure enough, boys are more fun. So, Xiao Shiraishi, I'll ask you for tonight."

Miyoko smiled and hinted with her eyes.

please what? I'm the one below at night. Shiraishi groaned in his heart.

And it's not something kids can play with.

"By the way, why did Auntie and Ayane appear here together?"

Shiraishi asked about this topic.

"We are discussing the upcoming festival, what to prepare in advance."

Ayane replied.

For such lively activities as festivals, women always give a lot of enthusiasm.

"Is that so? Then you can talk slowly, don't worry about me, I'll go up and have a rest first."

Shiraishi is not very interested in the topic of women, and the ghost knows what is going on with these people. He is exhausted to death now, and he just wants to have a good rest.

Leaving the three women discussing the festival in the living room, Shiraishi returned to the room alone and fell asleep.

Although ninjas are indeed more energetic than ordinary people, they will feel mental fatigue no matter how energetic they are after so many days of high-intensity work.

I fell asleep in a groggy state, and when I woke up, I suddenly felt a little thirsty in my mouth and my nose was a little blocked.

It was brightly lit outside, and it was clearly the next morning.

The sound of the wind is blowing, although it will feel cold just listening to the sound, but this will have the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year.

"Are you feeling unwell?"

Liu Li, who was sleeping beside her, opened her eyes and seemed to realize that something was wrong with Shiraishi's situation.

"Yeah, I seem to have a cold."

Bai Shi covered the pain and said helplessly.

"It's said that you should pay more attention to your body when you go out alone. Thanks to you, you are still a medical ninja."

Liuli sat up from the bed, then got out of bed, poured a cup of hot water outside, and looked for cold medicine, and put it on the bedside table over Shiraishi.

"Sorry for bothering you."

Shiraishi picked up the medicine and put it in his mouth, then took another sip of hot water.

"Are you going to work today?"

"No, I want to have a good rest at home. It's okay to delay the work over there for a day or two."

"Really, I originally planned to let you go out shopping with us today."

Lucy seemed to have a headache.

"It's not even the New Year's Eve yet. I'll take care of my body these days. Just have fun."

Shiraishi felt a little dizzy. If he knew this earlier, he should pack more things when he went out for inspection, instead of traveling lightly.

After taking the cold medicine, Shiraishi continued to lie down, not wanting to move.

Seeing Shiraishi like this, Liuli also felt that it was really not suitable for him to go out at this time, and his usual work was also very busy, and the night at home was extremely hard, so let's give him a few days off.

After getting dressed, Liu Li took a brief shower and went out.

There is a shadow dancer there, don't worry that Shiraishi has no one to take care of.

Outside, her mother, Miyoko, and her nemesis, Ayane, were already waiting there.

"Strange, why didn't Shiraishi-kun come out?"

Ayane turned her head sideways, puzzled.

"I have a cold, I'm going to recuperate at home today."

Lucy answered.

"That's really bad. Indeed, Shiraishi-kun's physique has dropped a bit compared to before."

Ayane touched her chin and commented in a very professional tone.

"Maybe it's too much money in the evening. Although they haven't married yet, they are like newlyweds who are in love and unable to extricate themselves, but Xiao Liuli also needs to exercise restraint in this regard. But it's the same as her mother's time, Dad also worked very hard to let Xiao Liuli be born."

Miyoko laughed.

"What nonsense! Is this what a mother should say?"

Lucy was a little embarrassed.

The incident of Shiraishi's cold is the same as her unrestrained demands.

No, she is just a very normal physiological need for human beings to live in this world, and she just needs a little more than normal people in that respect.

"Don't talk about such a meaningless topic, but I agreed to come out to relax after I pushed back the training time."

Liu Li took a deep breath and ended the topic.

"Yes, Xiao Liuli is also very cute. Let's stop there. After all, the festival in the country of ghosts is still very lively, so you have to prepare well."

"Aunt Miyoko has lived here for many years and must have participated in many festivals. How is it compared to Konoha?"

Ayane asked curiously.

"Is it Konoha? After all, I rarely go back to Konoha during Chinese New Year. In recent years, I have only gone back to see it occasionally, or through secret channels... How should I put it, each has its own merits. However, in the country of ghosts, the region The characteristics of the customs and culture are more prominent.”

Miyoko has lived in the land of ghosts for many years and knows most things about it.

It has different customs and cultures from Konoha and the Land of Fire, which makes people from all over the world feel very novel.

If I have to say it, it is the gap of belief.

As far as Miyoko knew, the people in the country of fire were monks, that is, the existence with the characteristics of "Buddha" like the temple of fire. Unlike the country of fire, Konoha Ninja Village believes in the will of fire, but the will of fire was born too short. In terms of the cohesion of belief and culture, naturally it cannot be compared with the witch culture of the country of ghosts.

Afterwards, the three of them wandered in the commercial street of Ziyuan City.

Because their identities were too sensitive, Liuli and Ayane were wearing clothes without family emblems, and their faces were also covered with masks.

There are more and more people from abroad in the country of ghosts, which is the result of Shiraishi's well-mannered leadership, but they must also be careful to avoid revealing their identities.

After all, Liuli and Ayane, who are S-class rebels, are also well-known figures in the ninja world.

They were originally from the White Fang team, and their names have been reflected in the eyes of high-level officials of various countries, and they are familiar with them. Despite this fame, there are many negative effects.

For an ordinary ninja like Shiraishi, because Konoha didn't give any decent information, the villages' perception of Shiraishi was still at the level of medical ninjas, which did not pose any threat. From this point of view, it cannot be said that it is completely wrong.

Aside from the fighting ability of several clones, the level of its own is only the level of elite johnin.

"Although Xiao Baishi doesn't know how to do business, he sometimes has his own unique insights on how to develop business. It only took a few months to make this commercial street full of vitality."

Miyoko pointed to the various branded shops in the commercial street. Most of the merchandise and shops were hardcover and looked like luxury goods. But in fact, the price is very close to the people, which dredges the vitality of the business in the country of ghosts.

"Isn't this what you and Dad did?"

Lucy asked suspiciously.

"No, the detailed development was indeed made by us, but the grand strategy was provided by Xiao Shiraishi." Miyoko showed admiration and smiled: "He said very rudely at the time that wealth is concentrated in the rich. On the body, civilians lose the opportunity to climb up, and the goods in the store will be monopolized by the rich, which will lead to a downturn in the entire market, hold dead money, and eventually lead to the decline of the power of the country.”

Although Liuli and Ayane don't know much about business issues, according to the current situation of the commercial street, even some civilians have started business with the help of the loan from the Ziyuan Flower Merchant Association, and the business is still very popular, then It means that the grand strategy given by Shiraishi is not wrong, and it has really helped the economic development of the country of ghosts.

"Can a single sentence like this shake the market?"

"No, maybe it has something to do with the road."

Miyoko looked at the ordinary road beneath her feet with a thoughtful look in her eyes.

At first, she was hesitant about Shiraishi's proposal to build the road.

If it wasn't for Liuli threatening them with Sharinyan, she really didn't want to spend such a huge amount of money to do this kind of thing that didn't benefit her.

She is just a businessman, essentially a vampire who exploits the interests of civilians, not a charity. Benefiting the common people is tantamount to cutting off one's own interests and reducing one's wealth. As a businessman, she doesn't want to do such a loss-making business anyway.

Now it seems that, as the top businessman in the ninja world, she has been taught a lesson against it.

Road construction, which seems to be a very loss-making business, is the real way to make money.

The lost funds will come back, and the return is ten times, a hundred times.

After the road to the country of ghosts was renovated, more businessmen were willing to come to the country of ghosts, which led to the interaction of business. The country of ghosts was able to develop so quickly, and these foreign businessmen also contributed.

Unlike Ruri and Ayane, they are interested in the packaging, quality, and functions of the products, but Miyoko, a businessman, can see more distant things through the changes of more than half a year.

The path that the ninja world had never imagined was quietly going on inside the country of ghosts.

I picked out a lot of products to buy, and I didn’t need to consider the issue of funds, and it didn’t stop until noon.

The commercial street in the country of ghosts is wider than the commercial street in Konoha, and the variety and quality of goods are also much higher.

After all, this is not only driven by businessmen in the country of ghosts, but also a large number of wealthy businessmen from abroad are concentrated here, allowing wealth to flow, and the commercial street will naturally develop rapidly.

"Ah, my stomach is full. I didn't expect to be able to eat so much delicious food here."

Ayane returned to the box from the bathroom, where there was no outsider to disturb, so she could eat and drink openly.

"Eating so much every time, it's time to lose weight."

Ruri looked at the empty dishes in front of Ayane and said this to her.

"It's so rude, I'm just a little fuller in my breasts. I'm not out of shape in terms of body shape."

Ayane coughed.

"It's okay, a girl who can eat is a blessing. But it's a test of her husband's ability to make money. Ayane-chan can eat as much as she wants, and my aunt will pay the bill."

Miyoko likes Ayane's cheerful temperament very much. Although she doesn't say a word of truth, it makes people feel very comfortable to get along with.

"Thank you, Aunt Miyoko. Then I'm welcome. After all, it feels too wasteful to not eat so much food."

After a long time, Ayane was still eating and drinking at the dining table.

Although Hu Tianhai eats like this, Lingyin's eating movements are very elegant, without the slightest rudeness. At first glance, she looks like a well-educated lady, giving people a pleasant feeling.

Looking at Ayane's happy eating, Liuli was also a little jealous. This woman always eats so much, why does she only grow **** where she shouldn't grow up? Normal people have already eaten fat pigs.

Liuli sat in a few different positions, and Ayane was still eating and drinking there, not intending to stop when she was full.

Having been eating and drinking for such a long time, Liuli felt that she was more procrastinating than usual.

Drag more than usual...

Liuli felt something was wrong~www.readwn.com~ This woman usually eats a lot, but this time it took too long.

His face changed suddenly, and his eyes immediately turned scarlet, matching Ayane's raised gaze.

Ayane's eyes were dull, her body was stiff, and the tableware she was holding in her hand was also in the air.

"Hey, Liuli, you do this—"

Seeing this scene, Miyoko immediately knew that Ruri had used illusions on Ayane.

Although she knew that Ruri hated Ayane, it was too much to sneak up on her comrades with the Shaking Eye illusion.

boom!

Ayane's body turned into a cloud of white smoke and disappeared on the seat opposite.

Miyoko's voice stopped abruptly.

Shadow clone?

It's not just that there is no truth in the mouth, but the behavior itself is full of deceitful women. At this time, Miyoko seriously felt Ayane's cunning and danger.
