Konoha's Peerless Peerless

Chapter 146 Excited Xianglin
In Luoxue City in the south of the Piaoxue Mountains, Xianglin dressed in a white ninja outfit was holding a target tightly hung on the wall with a bitter expression.

That damned red and white wooden target was the first guy she was going to hit today, she had to throw all the ten kunai beside her on the red heart of the wooden target, otherwise, she would be caught by her serious one again today. mother scolded.

Thinking of her mother Nanako, Kaoru's face lost its expression. Since she came here with her mother, her mother has become less gentle as if she had changed. Ever since she practiced ninjutsu, Nanako has become serious. And indifferent, for this reason, she did not know how many sad tears she shed at night.

Although weeping, Xianglin still understands her mother very well. She knows that it is for her own good. The long period of detention has made Xianglin extremely mature. Only with strong strength can she protect her mother and her family. Brother Lan.

As soon as she thought of Lan, Xiang Lin left Kunai and sat on the stone steps and sighed, her strength had already broken through to endure, why didn't brother Lan come back, did he forget the promise he had made with Xiang Lin?

Thinking of this, Xiang Lin's eyes widened, she shook her head hastily, and then said to the ground, "Brother Lan will not forget the promise with Xiang Lin, he should be rushing back now, yes , that’s right, even though he was rushing back, I don’t know if he is cold now, alas, this annoying Xue is all to blame, stop my brother..."

Xianglin complained, as if Lan couldn't come back in time, it was all because of the snow.

After complaining for a while, Xianglin stood up and picked up the cold kunai again. Looking at the flickering kunai, she sighed, and then she started throwing it again.

Just when she was listlessly throwing kunai, a scent of meat came in from outside the door.

Xianglin's complexion gradually became better when she smelled the smell of meat. She swallowed, it smelled like roasted snow rabbits. Could it be that the kitchen is making roasted snow rabbits today?No, didn't you say you ate grilled corn today?
Xianglin put down Kunai, turned around and walked towards the wooden door. Before he could raise his hand, the door was pulled open from the outside.

"Hey, Xiao Xianglin, you're being lazy again, let's see what grandpa Zhujian brought you." Senshou Zhuma squinted and held the roasted golden and crispy snow rabbit.

Xianglin glanced greedily at the roasted snow rabbit first, then pouted and said to Zhujian: "You went out to hunt secretly again, didn't you say that the Snowy Mountains are very dangerous now, aren't you afraid that an avalanche will come and crush you Below."

"Haha, the danger is only relative to those of you who are not strong enough. For me, there is no danger in the whole ninja world. Come and taste it and see how the one I roasted today."

Senshou Zhujian put the plate aside, then tore off a rabbit leg and handed it to Xianglin.

Smelling the smell of meat, Xianglin swallowed her saliva, and then reached out her hand to hold the roasted rabbit legs that were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Looking at the fragrant rabbit legs, she glanced sideways at the door He opened his mouth and began to eat.

Her eating behavior is not good-looking, but a bit embarrassed. She usually eats like this. This is a habit she developed when she was in the country of grass.

At that time, she often couldn't get enough to eat, so she had to eat fast, otherwise the bad kids in Kusanagi Village would snatch her food.

After gnawing the tender and juicy roasted rabbit legs until only the bones remained, Xiang Lin threw the bones on the ground and looked at the pillars to beg for the rabbit meat.

Just as she stretched out her oily little hand, the door was pushed open by Nanako with a serious face.

Nanako, who was wearing a cherry red kimono, came in and stared at Karin with a terrified face.

She glanced at Xianglin's greasy hands, then frowned and asked, "Xianglin, have you completed your kunai throwing mission?"

"Mom..." Xianglin called out in fear.

"Ah, it's Nanako. I just saw that Kaorin practiced very hard, so I took this rabbit with me..." Hashirama scratched his head in embarrassment. He now looks like someone who has done something bad and was discovered by his wife. husband.

Of course, Nanako is not his wife. He is like this because of his liking. His wife Uzumaki Mito is the same as Uzumaki Nanako. They both have beautiful red hair. Whenever he comes back from playing dice outside , Uzumaki Mito will blame him like Nanako blames Kaorin.

Nanako looked at Hashirama who was full of embarrassment, and then couldn't help repeating what she had said many times before: "Master Hashirama, how many times have I said that you must wait for Xianglin to finish her training before playing with her, you This makes it difficult for me.”

"Ah, I'm really sorry for causing you trouble, I can't help it, besides, I think Xianglin is fine, she already has the power of ninja, and now she is only seven years old, let her Rest for a while, she has already surpassed her peers by a lot..."

Hashirama tried to persuade Nanako, but his persuasion was useless as usual, Nanako shook her head slightly sadly, and then said: "I did this for her, the current situation in the ninja world is so chaotic, I am afraid that one day I will ..."

"I'm sorry Mom, I was wrong. I was lazy when I shouldn't be practicing. Please don't be sad. I will continue to practice." Xiang Lin said pitifully, then turned around and walked to Kunai.

Just when she was about to pick up Kunai and continue training, Nanako walked over with a distressed expression and took her hand.

"Mom?" Xianglin looked at Nanako suspiciously.

Looking at her daughter's doubtful face, Nanako first sighed and gave a wry smile, then shook her head and said, "I'm really pushing you a little hard these days, alas, you really should take a good rest."

Sighing for a while, Nanako took Kaorin's hand and said with a smile, "Actually, I came to you to tell you some good news."

"Good news? What good news?" Xianglin asked curiously.

"Hee hee." Nanako smiled mysteriously, then put her mouth next to Xiang Lin's ear, and whispered, "Brother Lan will be back tonight, isn't it good news~"

The heat from Nanako's mouth made Xianglin's ears itch, but the itch was far from the itch in her heart. At first she thought it was good news, but she didn't expect it to be such great news.

Xianglin looked at Nanako in surprise and excitement, and asked, "Are you telling the truth? Did you lie to me?"

"How could I lie to you, it's true." Nanako smiled.

"That... that's really great." Xianglin said excitedly, after that, she got up and rushed towards the door, Brother Lan is coming back, she has to dress up beautifully, yes, just Wearing the little kimono with cherry blossoms that her mother bought her newly.

Xianglin excitedly opened the door and ran out.

Seeing Xianglin who ran out, Nanako was ready to follow.

Just as she was getting up, Hashirama, who was holding the roasted rabbit, couldn't help stopping her and asked, "What did you say to Xianglin, why does she look so happy?"

"Ah!" Nanako screamed at Hashirama who was full of doubts, then frowned and asked, "Didn't you read the letter I left on the table in your room?"

"Ah? What letter, you mean the yellow paper on my desk a few days ago? I used it to catch fire..." Hashirama said awkwardly with his mouth open.

Seeing Hashirama's embarrassed expression, Nanako covered her mouth and snickered, and then she said, "Well, it seems that you don't know anything now."

"What do I know, don't be fooled, tell me quickly." Hashirama said urgently.

"Haha, alright, alright, I'll tell you now." Nanako covered her mouth and smiled, "Actually, Arashi-kun is coming back, and with him, there is also your granddaughter Tsunade-sama."

"Ah, Lan and Xiao Gang are coming back, why didn't you tell me earlier, where is he now? When will he be here?" Hashirama asked expectantly, yet excitedly.

Nanako looked north and said, "He said he would come back by boat. If he guessed correctly, he should have arrived in the Snow Country by now. I believe he will come back in the evening."

"Have you arrived in the Snow Country..." Hashirama stroked his chin, thought for a while, and handed the plate to Nanako.

As soon as Nanako caught the plate, Hashirama picked up Chakra and rushed out, "I'll go to the Piaoxue Mountains to pick them up, you can wait at home with peace of mind."

Before the sound dissipated, there was no one in the column.

Looking at the open door, Nanako, who was holding the roasted rabbit with a blank face, shook her head and stretched out her hand after taking a few glances at the door, tore off a piece of rabbit meat and put it in her mouth to chew.

As soon as she took a sip, Nanako's eyebrows raised involuntarily. She glanced at the roasted rabbit in surprise, then smiled and said to herself, "I never thought Mr. Hashirama's craftsmanship would be so good."

After laughing for a while, Nanako walked out with the plate. She had to clean up Lan's room. Although she had cleaned up many times before, she always felt uneasy for some reason. Said that this time Lan came back and brought a lot of people, and I don't know if there are enough guest rooms.

Nanako and the others are in Snowfall City, and Lan, who is worried about them, is walking quickly through the snowy mountains with others. In the eyes of ninjas, the snowfields and plateaus are almost peaceful. Running at extreme speed in various dangerous places that ordinary people think of.

Although this snowy mountain range is a dangerous place, in Lan's eyes, it is not as dangerous as a Jonin. As long as there are no blizzards and avalanches, he will not feel difficult.

Among Lan and his party, the only one who had difficulty was Izumi's mother, Mieko. Originally, Izumi planned to carry Mieko on her back and follow Lan's party, but in the end it was decided to let her and her mother go forward on a sled pulled by a giant wood wolf. The speed is fast, and it won't take long to cross this snowy mountain covered with snow.

Tsunade jumped a few steps forward, and when she came to Lan, she turned to the snow in the distance and asked Lan, "Aren't you going to deal with that guy who followed us?"

"Is that mouse? He's not worth my while. I've caused enough trouble for the Ghost Kingdom. Let's let this poor guy go this time." Lan said coldly, looking ahead.

"That's it, let's keep going." Tsunade shook his head, and then he and Lan stepped on the snow and ran towards the top of the mountain.
