【Naruto】Hyuga Neji’s Beautiful Life

The first mission as a dark pawn is not really memorable. It's not like genin catching kittens and puppies or looking for lost children, but it's just completing the tasks received from the Hokage for the Hinata family, or assassinating people, or collecting materials. It seems that they have said hello in advance, but they No - the information left by my deceased father. So Neji wasn't surprised when he got the mission, nor did he show any discomfort. These tasks are not graded or divided into categories, but whoever the elders think can do it can do it.

The mission target was introduced as an insignificant person. He probably offended some big name in the Land of Fire and ended up with such a head-shattering end. As a test or temptation from an elder to Neji, it's appropriate, that's how to describe it.

There weren't many people traveling with them, so the standard of action for a group of two was quite different from that of a group of three in the ninja world. The tall man walking in front holds a high position similar to that of a captain, but from current observations, he does not seem to have any special abilities. At least, in terms of combat ability alone, Neji even feels that the other party is inferior to him. Of course, Carelessness and taking it lightly can lead to fatal disasters, so you must swallow it before the feeling is formed.

The code name is "Gui Que", which Neci had heard a little bit about earlier. He is a popular person around Seiichi. Although he is a dark pawn, if there is the aura of an dark pawn around Seiichi, or if he can detect the aura, then It's probably him.

Gui Que's body had a smell that was both disgusting and familiar to Neji. Just standing next to Gui Que, the rolling in his stomach couldn't stop, and every breath burned his trachea. Although the number of times he has been immersed in that smell has gradually decreased with age, the most recent time was only half a week ago. He seemed to be old and had no strength, and he seemed to have some scruples, with a hint of sneakiness. inside. But Neji's eyes would often turn black. Even though he was just sitting there quietly, he felt like someone was approaching, and his body and soul were being dragged into that room. He felt a tearing pain all over his body, and his chest was obviously twisted. A ball, unable to breathe, but his hands grabbed his neck uncontrollably, leaving bright red scratches on it. Everything he touched and everything he smelled turned into that desperate and powerless smell - again How to become stronger, but the physical and mental fear prevents the body from reacting in any way. It's not the fear at the time, it's the fear accumulated over time, the conditioned reflex, the shadow is just like this.

From time to time, through the darkness, I could catch a glimpse of the person's death form. The face of that person, which was only shown in the death form, was peaceful and kind, as if he had died peacefully and happily. Neji always thinks of his mother and father's deaths, which are very different. The malice rising in his heart could not be stopped, but he could not accept himself like this, so Neji had to leave scratches on his body again and again. The scar from the previous time had not faded away, and the long dark red line was attached again, and the cracks slowly slowed down. Slowly spitting out dark red beads, they shattered the moment they touched the skin, turning into a sticky mess. Pain may not solve the problem, but it can always pull him back from the quagmire of hatred.

In the gradually blurred memory of his parents, there is still a sentence like "The target of hatred and revenge will only be yourself, they cannot solve any problems." I don't know how his father and mother implemented this sentence, Neji only printed them In the heart.

The mission was by no means simple. The distance alone only took half a day. Even if you were tired, you still had to hurry. If you were hungry or thirsty, you could only follow the captain's orders while walking and swallow the dry military ration pills in your backpack. For children who are leaving home for the first time and traveling far away, everything should be so novel and interesting, and everything exudes extraordinary attraction. However, Neji just looked forward through the mask, without any He looked around, not looking left or right, but focused his chakra in his eyes, always analyzing the surrounding environment and situation with a subtle intensity, so as not to be killed by someone who didn't pay attention.

Gui Que didn't speak much, but the flow of chakra in his body was indignant and passionate. He was like a talkative man who had to hold his breath and pretend to be speechless. Sometimes he would open his eyes in a cool way, but the moment he opened his eyes, Neji noticed it. Gui Que's control over chakra is unsatisfactory. It only takes a little bit to complete it, but he uses a large amount and lets it run around. It's just a little better than the few in the clan's bodyguards who wear forehead protectors.

Gui Que ran in front, and Neji quietly observed the opponent's aura and chakra trend from behind, but not with his eyes, but with all the senses in his body except his eyes. He did not use chakra, but just They function in their first, most primitive form. This is what Ningci wanted to try when he accidentally saw a fragment from the "Guan Wuliangshou Sutra" printed below when he was studying the acupuncture book left by his father. Occasionally, he would see the clan guards and those bad guys in his daily life. The poor genin experimented, and it was considered a semi-finished product, but it also earned Neji the name of "mind-eye". It fits nicely.

The difference between midnight and noon seems to be just one word, the blink of an eye. The destination is looming in the mist, half-hidden at the foot of the hillside. The moment you open up the dense jungle, it feels like "there is no way out after mountains and rivers, and there is a village with dark flowers and bright willows".

Looking from the cliff, white mist meets the sky, reflecting the sunlight. I can only see white floating with dots of red, and gray-white smoke directly inserted into the air. The red roof outlines a quiet and peaceful place.

Gui Que's original plan seemed to be to sneak in directly and kill the target. However, when the two tried to enter the village, they found that the fog was much thicker than expected - what it covered was the strict security around the red roof, leaving Created the illusion that humans and animals are harmless.

Although this is the outskirts of the Land of Fire, there are a large number of ninjas gathered here. Although a large number of them are Konoha ninjas, there are also people from other countries. All kinds of forehead protectors and faces, some sparse and some dense, swarmed around the village. After all, they put a seal on each other. After the transformation, they took off their masks and put them in their arms. Neji followed closely behind, although he was not on duty. Training, but the old father's work diary has returned to work, and he is familiar with some rules.

Faceless, anonymous.

Not only to protect the other party, but also to protect yourself.

The two of them discussed becoming brothers. The clan robes were turned to the other side and looked like ordinary villagers' clothes. The backpack was also slightly dressed up, turning into a blue-gray baggage that could be hunched over the shoulders.

Gui Que held Ningji with one hand and carried his luggage with the other, talking to the guys at the gate of the village in an unknown dialect. The guy raised his weapon and looked like he wouldn't let anyone pass him.

"We came from a village in the north to escape the disaster. I am Jiro, and this is my younger brother Sanlang." Gui Que smiled naively, rubbing his linen clothes with his hands while bowing, sweating. The beads took away the stains on the surface that were randomly applied with mud.

There is indeed a famine in the north and a terrible drought.

Gui Que rubbed his shoes on the ground again, rubbing the dirt to the ground. "We just want to stay overnight, but we are too hungry to walk. I don't want to trouble everyone here, but..."

He lowered his head and looked at Neji affectionately, "Adults can't suffer children even if they are suffering, don't you think so?"

Neji also cooperated with Lala Guique's clothes, hid his body behind, and weakly shouted "Brother... I'm hungry..."

In time, Gui Que's legs trembled, and he knelt down with a "pop" sound. He hugged Neji and began to suffer, "Brother! It's all useless for my brother...it's useless for my brother!"

The guard's hand holding up the weapon to stop people began to shake, "This..." He looked helplessly at his companions around him, but he did not dare to move casually. He could only freeze there, pretending not to see the brothers at the door, but he would look there from time to time. Glancing away.

At this time, an old man came over and asked, "What happened?" The guard greeted the old man respectfully, and repeated the story of the brothers to the old man. The old man waved his sleeves and said:

"The children are so hungry, let them in." The attendant on one side stopped him.

"Mr. Big, I'm afraid..."

"If such a young child... then it would be even more important to take a look!"

The attendant was speechless and could only signal the guard to let him go. The old man stood with his hands behind his back, looking kind.

"My name is He Kong, you can call me sir."

Ningji and Gui Que looked at each other. This was the mission goal, but it seemed far from the "little person" described.
