The full moon is like a wheel, and the gentle evening breeze blows across the wilderness, which is refreshing.

Under the cold moonlight, a towering tree stands tall, casting a huge shadow on the ground. It grows freely, spreading its branches and leaves, and its wide crown seems to cover the entire night sky.

With the giant tree as the center, colorful flowers bloom in a radius of one kilometer. When the breeze blows, the flowers and plants sway gently, and the petals rise and fall with the breeze, like a fragrant ocean.

In front of the giant tree, the space twisted into a vortex, and a black and red passage opened, and two figures walked out of it.

“Huh? This is…”

Uchiha Nian looked around curiously, and was immediately attracted by the magnificent scenery of the wilderness.

The towering giant tree and the sea of ​​flowers rippling with silver light, in just a few seconds, this beautiful scene refreshed his cognition.

“It turns out… there are such beautiful places in the world…”

For some reason, his vision became blurred and his eyes were misty.

The shock after seeing his father’s photo, the dejection after learning the truth of the experiment, the unwillingness of being besieged by the roots… the emotions that he had tried to suppress before surged up like a tide, drowning his whole body and mind.

Tears rolled down his cheeks like pearls from a broken string, the wind was soothing, the surroundings were peaceful and beautiful, but there was only loneliness and sadness in his heart.

He didn’t know how long he cried before he vented all his emotions and calmed down his complicated mood.

It wasn’t until he realized that he didn’t seem to be alone that he turned his head suddenly and found that the senior was standing quietly in the sea of ​​flowers, with his hands behind his back, looking up at the sky.

“Are you done crying?”

Nian was slightly stunned and nodded subconsciously, “Yeah.”

Shen Yu turned his head, as if he had eyes on his back.

He walked slowly to Nian’s side, glanced up and down, frowned slightly, and seemed to be considering something.

Nian was also confused. He didn’t know why the senior saved him and why he brought him here. He didn’t even know where this place was.

But the senior must have his reasons for doing this, and he didn’t dare to ask more.

Because… ever since he threw that shuriken, he never wanted to return to Konoha again. Except for Orochimaru and Sister Chiri, that place was just a residence, not a home at all.

Maybe… he never had a home.

He was very scared. If he talked too much or did something wrong and made the senior unhappy, he would be abandoned again and return to that cold and sad place.

Fortunately, Shen Yu broke the silence, which made Nian’s tight heart relax slightly.

“Originally, I was going to wait for you to help Orochimaru and Hiruko find the treasure in the secret room before telling you the truth, but now it seems…”

Shen Yu spoke softly, dragging out the sound, “Some unexpected changes have taken place.”

Nian hesitated for a moment, and tentatively said: “Actually… I have already guessed some of it.”

“Oh? About your father?” Shen Yu asked in surprise, and raised his eyebrows to show a little surprise.

“Well…” Nian whispered: “My father, Uchiha Kagami, he is not a deserter as the people of Konoha say, but a genius who possesses both the Mangekyō Sharingan and the power of Wood Release. He is the commander of Konoha who led the main battlefield in the Ninja World War…”

As he spoke, he carefully observed Shen Yu’s expression, and was slightly relieved when he saw that the other party did not interrupt him.

It turns out… his judgments were all correct…

“Anything else?” Shen Yu suddenly asked.

Nian took a deep breath and said, “As the commander of the army, how could he be a deserter? If my father, who has such power, is a deserter, then Konoha’s main battlefield would have been defeated long ago!”

“But according to my investigation, Konoha won a great victory in both the main battlefield and the border defense line in the war that year!”

Nian became more and more excited as he spoke, and his desolate voice blended into the wind and echoed in the wilderness:

“So, the only possibility is that my father’s heroic performance was envied by others, leading to his being framed by villains, and some people usurped his glorious military exploits and used some…some shady means to force him to death.”

When he said the last few words , his voice trembled slightly, and he could hardly suppress his emotions, “The only thing I don’t understand is, whose interests did he touch? Even the Uchiha clan hates him so much…”

Shen Yu was silent for a while, and said: “The process is almost the same, but the result is a little bit wrong.”

He stood side by side with Nian, and there was a hint of sarcasm in his calm voice:

“The people in Konoha did not want the Uchiha clan to become the real ruler, and would not allow the Uchiha clan to become the Hokage. So they began to form gangs and use a mission as an opportunity to incite the stupid people and promote Jing as a heinous and evil person.The unforgivable selfish ghost, and united the entire village to isolate the Uchiha clan…”

“At that time, the Uchiha clan was extremely weak and quite contradictory. They clearly claimed to be extraordinary but did not have the courage to rebel. They needed the pitiful and insignificant recognition in the village, so they could not bear the pressure and could only cooperate with the Konoha high-level to brainwash the masses. At this time, Uchiha Jing can only wash away the shame of the Uchiha clan by death…”

“Who cares if you are a hero or not? The peace treaty has been signed. The countries have almost exhausted their reserves for the next few years in the Ninja World War. The Sand Village in the Wind Country is already poor. It doesn’t matter if they develop for a few years, and there will be no such thing as war. So… Uchiha Jing has no value. ”

“Everyone is looking forward to his death, because his death is related to the interests of everyone…”

Nian’s lips trembled. If this is the case, he can understand why he has suffered so much injustice since he was a child.

“So, Konoha executed him?” He looked up and asked, his eyes moist.

“No. “Shen Yu put his hands behind his back and said calmly, “I killed him.”

“…”

“! ! !”

Nian suddenly opened his eyes wide and stared at Shen Yu in disbelief. His figure was lonely and lonely, and the moonlight outlined a cold arc for him. Nian felt that the senior was so… strange.

“Don’t you ask why?” Shen Yu asked.

“The senior once said that he did something to let you down.” Nian said in a trembling voice.

Shen Yu stared at him in surprise, and a smile squeezed out of his thin lips, “Your reaction is not right. Shouldn’t you attack me with all your strength? Or is it that reason suppresses emotion, and you think you can’t defeat me?”

“Senior is joking. “Nian opened his mouth but said nothing. He could only say silently in his heart:

‘Compared to the unreal fatherly love, I care more about…your expectations.’

The breeze blew, and a fallen leaf slowly passed by and fell on Nian’s head.

Shen Yu pointed to the giant tree in front of the two of them: “12 years ago, this was a bare plain. It was here that I took away his eyes, and the big trees and flowers you see are all transformed from his body. “
