[Naruto] Three Ways

When Kanna packed up and came to Asura's house, he was arranging a stack of papers full of words on the table, Feng Qiujin was sleeping soundly on the small bed next to him, seeing her and Taizang coming in, he just ended up After a while, a branch came out from the crack in the floor, rolled up the baby's crib and sent it further inside, obviously not wanting their conversation to wake him up.

"Wait for me a moment, I'll be fine soon."

Kanna was fascinated by the thick paper in Asura's hand, and she couldn't remember when Asura could sit at the desk honestly and write on the paper for a whole day. It is a miracle to be able to stay honestly for more than half an hour.When she first came to Ninja School to study, Yuyi told her that reading requires peace of mind, and that Ashura couldn't read because he couldn't calm down.

"Young people are always eager to run freely under the blue sky and white clouds. Like a newborn calf, they want to try everything new. For Asura, sitting quietly and reading a book is a waste of time."

Kanna took Yu Yi's words very seriously. Asura was the kind of big boy who was full of energy and ran around. There is.

What now?Looking at the neat handwriting on the paper, Gan Nai felt pain in her heart.Today's Asura, his heart is so calm that there is not even the slightest wave, even Feng Qiujin's appearance didn't make him a little angry.

After numbering the paper and putting it away neatly, Ashura came to Kanna and Taizang, and said to them in a very formal tone: "I'm looking for you today, and I want to ask you for one thing."

His seriousness also infected Kannai and Taizo, they exchanged a concerned look, and then Taizo asked him: "What's the matter?"

Asura's eyes glanced into the house, and then Kanna heard him say something that made her mind go blank in an extremely calm voice.

"I would like to ask you to take care of Toyo Akitsu after my death."

"... What did you say?" Kanna asked blankly, she could understand the words separately, but when they were put together, she didn't know what Asura was talking about.

What after death... what does this all mean? !

"It's nothing to be surprised about. Birth, old age, sickness and death, people will always have this day." Faced with the shock of the two, Asura looked indifferent, and he raised his hand and shook it, "Although it seems like now It doesn't look like anything, but it's all thanks to the recovery ability of the immortal body. No matter how serious the injury is, it can be recovered very quickly, and it won't be disturbed by the disease. It's really amazing, isn't it?"

"Hey, hey..." Maybe Asura's tone was too weird, Taizang interrupted him with a still unbelievable expression, "So the immortal body is so powerful, what are you saying to die now? Where is Tuogu? I got you, didn't I?" At the end he even leaned forward excitedly, almost shaking Asura to wake him up.

Kanna looked at Asura with a helpless smile, and said something softly, which made her burst into tears.

"No matter how strong the power is... there is a limit."

She knew Ashura wasn't kidding, no matter how normal he looked right now, he was really at his limit.

"……why?"

"Asura, how did you make yourself like this?" Kanna covered her mouth and forced herself to swallow her tears. Crying can't solve anything, and it can't save Asura. She looks at Asura beggingly, hoping that he If you can talk more about your own situation, maybe there is still a way to think about it.

However, this question was not answered. Asura got up, took a scroll from the shelf beside him, showed it to Kannai and Taizo, and explained: "This is a sealing scroll made by immortal art, and many things can be sealed inside. , I will teach you the knot seal. It is still empty now, but I will put everything for you and Feng Qiujin in here later.”

"If... if the people of the Ninja sect don't need Feng Qiujin as the successor... when that time comes, you should take Feng Qiujin and him, and leave here together."

"Ashura, what are you talking about?!" Kanna yelled uncontrollably. She couldn't understand what Ashura was thinking. The conversation tonight was beyond her expectations from beginning to end. She was shocked and depressed. I didn't accept that Asura was going to die, but I found that the things he explained were further developing in a dangerous direction.

On the contrary, after a long silence, Tai Zang showed a sad and clear expression. He patted Kanna on the back, raised his head and asked Asura: "Are you worried that those who followed Indra headed by Hong will Is it bad for Fengqiujin?" Although Indra's followers settled down in front of Asura after his death, if Asura was not there, and his son was still a baby under the age of one, it would be difficult for them to do anything. Unpredictable.

Asura shook his head, put the scroll back on the bookshelf, and sat back in front of them again.

"No, I talked to Hiro, and I allowed him to choose for himself whether to take over Ninzong and carry out my brother's way of governance, or to teach Toyo Akitsu as an adult and assist him. He hasn't replied to me yet, but I guess, I'm alive He won't reply to me when I'm here, but I can't help but make arrangements for Feng Qiujin and you."

"If he really chooses to govern the Ninja Sect by himself, then you who follow me will be in an embarrassing position, especially Kanna, you are not a member of the Ninja Sect. Although you have lived here for many years, after all... In short, you Leaving here is the best option."

Kanna nodded silently, she also knew this.She was brought back by Asura, and all the people who came to the Ninja sect with her have left, only she stayed as Asura's entourage, she is a woman without a husband's family, and Asura has never been married, her Her status in the Ninja sect is not embarrassing at all. Although her ability is also outstanding, once Asura is gone, her status will only be troublesome.

"If you are too hidden, you can choose by yourself, but if Kanna leaves, I wonder if you can still sit still?"

The sudden teasing made Taizang angry and helpless, he gave Asura a blank look, but in the end he still sighed quietly: "You... why are you joking at this time."

Asura winked at the two friends who had been in ink for many years: "Do you want me to be a matchmaker? I advise you to think carefully, I don't have a lot of time to watch you get entangled."

"What nonsense are you talking about..." Kanna lowered her head and muttered, she couldn't tell if she was shy from being teased or sad because of Asura's casual words, maybe it was both, but in the end it was more sad.The more Asura behaved calmly, the sadder she felt. She didn't know how long he had concealed them from them, but it would not be a short period of time. It can be seen from his arrangement for them today, maybe from He decided to give birth to Feng Qiujin and started preparing for today.

But maybe... it started when Indra died.

Asura didn't tease the two friends anymore, he looked at Taizo, and said in a deep voice: "One more thing, if it really reaches the point I said, please change Feng Qiujin's surname."

"Isn't your surname Otsuki?" Taizang was stunned. If he even changed his father's surname, it meant that Toyoakitsu and Ninzong really had no relationship at all.

"I have nothing for him to inherit except a ninja sect, so it doesn't matter whether this surname can be passed on, and I have to say, the person with the surname Otsutsuki... Forget it, there is no need to say it, anyway. Please, too."

Gan Nai guessed that what Asura wanted to say was that no one with the surname Datongmu would die well.This surname seems to be cursed, Indra is, Asura is, she thinks that Six Paths Sage Yuyi is also, she knows that Yuyi also has a younger brother from those Yunyou letters, but she has never seen or even heard of it. He, presumably the experience of the Sage of the Six Paths when he was young was not simple.

"Then what have you decided to change it to?" Kanna asked softly.

"Thousand hands... How about it? I remember hearing you guys say that the thousand-handed Buddha statue I summoned with the Immortal Wood Dungeon looks pretty cool?"

Kanna knew that Asura's last words were just words, not what he really meant.

The books and knowledge gathered by the Immortals of the Six Paths are like an ocean. She was fortunate to have seen some of them related to beliefs and myths. Whether it is Indra or Asura, their names all come from myths and allusions that have long been buried by time.And she remembered that in those illusory stories, thousand means immeasurable and perfect. The Buddha used "thousand hands" to represent the immeasurable vastness of great compassion, benefiting and comforting all sentient beings, and corresponding to the five parts and five kinds of dharmas according to the opportunities of all living beings. And fulfill all wishes.

He is... hoping that Feng Qiujin's wish will be fulfilled, right?
