[Hokage] Summer Festival

——If you could choose, what would you like to do in your next life?

——Be a koala, sleep for 20 hours, eat for 2 hours, and be in a daze for 2 hours, how happy you are.

——Nothing new, this kind of talk is copied from the Internet.

Reborn as a human.

The moment I opened my eyes, I felt that the blue sky above my head was incomparably beautiful.

The morning sun is like gold, spreading from the sky layer by layer from far to near, like golden broken sand, dyeing most of the sky.

Mostly heaven is nothing more than that.

Falling rapidly from a height of more than 1 meters in the previous second, it is not surprising even if it is in heaven.

A very warm wind was blowing, and the thick smell of blood filled the surroundings, paralyzing the sense of smell.

This must not be paradise, I thought.

There will be no blood in heaven.

Sitting up with a lot of effort, I looked at the hand propped on the ground, the ten fingers were slender, and there were dried blood on the fingertips.

A circle smaller than my hand, but much more powerful.

But now, these slender fingers are completely under my control and can stretch freely.

No matter how stupid I am, I still know that this is not my body. There is a saying in ancient books about returning the soul from a dead body. It seems that it is not nonsense.

Jacob often said that the soul and the body are inseparable, and sometimes the soul does not necessarily disappear with the body.I didn't take it seriously at first, and laughed at him for being a scientist so superstitious, how can the theory of strange powers and gods be taken seriously.

At that time, he retorted that, do you know why scientists are needed, because there are still too many things in this world that cannot be explained by science.

He is right.

Now that I look at my completely unfamiliar body, I still have the mood to think that if I have the chance to see Jacob again, I must applaud his insight for 3 minutes.

This is of course after the "chance".

After looking around, I couldn't help gasping.The wilderness is yellow sand, corpses are strewn everywhere, dried and wet bloodstains are mixed together, intertwined into mottled deep and shallow reds.

If the first sight is heaven, then this sight is definitely comparable to hell.

Next to it was the "heavy object" that was on my body and pushed away by me. I saw it clearly at this time, and realized that it was a person, no, it should be said, it was a corpse.

The immature face of a teenager, the eyes are wide open and unfocused.The right shoulder was empty and bloody.There is a kunai stuck in the chest.

His eyes were filled with such cold and mutilated corpses.

Such a situation, if it is not a war, or it is a family grievance, and the family is wiped out.Either way, it's a far cry from the peaceful world I've been living in.

It's really "birth" at an untimely time.

He felt a foreign body in his throat, coughed twice, and his internal organs were in a heart-piercing pain, as if to tear this body into pieces.

A mouthful of blood suddenly spit out from my mouth, but I felt much better in an instant.This body has absorbed my soul, and my five senses have become very clear.

Suddenly a white head came close to my eyes, and before I could be surprised, I saw him turn his head and shout behind me:

"There's still a living brat here!"

There were two people who heard the sound, they were busy but brave, I never knew that the speed of human beings could reach such a state, it was like a space transfer.

The man with black hair and golden eyes glanced at the ground, his eyes finally fell on my arm, and he said:

"It's Konoha's ninja."

Unusually hoarse voice.It is Jacob's dream, it is said to be the kind of voice that shows the temptation and sexiness of a man.

I looked down, and there was something like a forehead guard wrapped around my left arm, engraved with a pattern that spiraled towards the center, like the leaves of an abstract painter.

"We are the Konoha ninjas who came to support, and I am the medical ninja Tsunade. You are seriously injured, let me treat you first."

I raised my head, and only had time to vaguely see her twin ponytails hanging down to my cheeks, and then my eyes went dark, and my consciousness faded away amidst their shouts of "hey, hey".

***

I woke up again in the hospital. I stared at the white ceiling and thought for a long time, my mind was in a mess.

ninja.

Asuka, Nara, Heian, Kamakura, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Muromachi, Sengoku, Azuchi Momoyama, Edo.

What era is this in?

I sat up with my arms propped up, and felt a dull pain in the back of my left hand. It turned out that the needle was pulled.

Very modern wards, and there are intravenous infusions, unlike ancient Japan.

The door of the ward was suddenly pushed open vigorously, and the person who came was as fast as lightning. Before I could see his face clearly, I fell into a warm embrace.

Then I heard a voice in my ear sighing and saying:

"It's great that you're alright, Xia Zi."

It was the kind of sighing tone of the rest of the life, lost and found, with obvious caution.

Xia Zi.

It turned out that this body was named Xia Zi.

He let go of his arm, rubbed me, or Natsuko's head, and said with a wry smile:

"Brother, you are the only family member, Xia Zi."

He is a very handsome man, in his twenties, with gentle eyes.

The way my parents look at me is exactly the same, cherishing, tolerant, and treating me like a treasure.

I said in my heart, you are wrong, you have no family, just like me, no family.

I am a wandering soul from another world, not your sister Xia Zi.

But how could he bear to say it, how could he not be greedy for such tenderness in the face of such parents-like eyes.

Not even the Lord will forgive you for literally killing the hope of others.

So I said:

"I'm fine, don't worry."

Just pretend it was Xia Zi telling him, it's all right, please rest assured.

Someone walked in from outside the door. The man was wearing a white coat and should be a doctor.After approaching the hospital bed, he patted brother Xia Zi on the shoulder and said:

"Fortunately, Tsunade and the others arrived in time, remember to thank them well, Duan."

His appearance is somewhat similar to Brother Xia Zi's, but his hair color is quite different.The doctor was as black as ink, while Ah Duan's hair was a rare light blue.

He looked at me, smiled and said:

"Welcome back, Xia Zi."

"Also, congratulations on becoming a Jonin."

I don't know anything about what happened before, so I really can't answer, so I just pursed my lips and looked at him, keeping silent.

I don't know how people in this world treat resurrected corpses, but I really don't dare to take the risk.

No matter which world it is, things like wandering spirits and wild ghosts will never be treated kindly.

People who have died once will more or less have a persistent attachment and reverence for life.

Seeing that I didn't speak, he was taken aback for a moment, then smiled helplessly, and said:

"Why don't you talk? Could it be that he was so hurt that even brother Xinyi forgot?"

Then the tone was very gentle, and he continued to say with a bit of persuasion:

"I'm afraid I'll have to recuperate for half a year from this injury. However, it's great to be able to come back alive."

"When you were unconscious, Teacher Xiaochun also came."

"Don't think too much, just take care of yourself."

Onin.

Teacher Xiaochun.

There is also this man named Shinichi, who claims to be an older brother.

I began to get in touch with everything about Xia Zi bit by bit. In their eyes, Xia Zi was me, and I was Xia Zi.

It doesn't feel good to be another person, but I'm still grateful for having my life back.The Lord has treated me well.

Thinking back to the previous life, when the plane was hit by the airflow, I panicked like everyone else, and I felt that despair was overwhelming.But at the moment of the crash, he calmed down inexplicably. After learning that rescue was hopeless, he was able to face death calmly.

I still remember the young woman next to me patting the crying baby in her arms and saying softly:

"Don't be afraid, baby, the Lord is calling us."

The mother's voice has always had a calming and soothing effect, and this young mother probably infected me.

In my last life, I kept myself safe and did not do any heinous things, nor did I steal or kidnap.My parents have passed away, I am an only daughter, unmarried and have no boyfriend, so I have no worries.The only regret is that I have promised my friends to watch the total lunar eclipse next week, and now I am doomed to break my promise.

As far as I know, the doctor Shinichi should be the cousin or cousin of Natsuko and Aduan.

I once heard people say that when it comes to appearance, cousins ​​are similar, and cousins ​​are similar.

So I guess, most of the letter is the cousin of the two brothers and sisters.As for the truth, we will know in the future.

I'm in no hurry.

The life bestowed on me by my parents has vanished due to an accident, and the days I am living in the name of Xia Zi are all given to me by God.

I don't know if it can be used to describe this situation.

Live well, no matter whether Xia Zi's soul will suddenly return one day, I have no reason not to cherish this fresh life.

Do your best and obey the destiny.This is my life creed all the time.

A few days later, I was transferred to the general ward. The roommate was a girl who was about the same age as Xia Zi, with long black hair and phoenix eyes. When she talked, her eyes were smiling.

Seeing that I was settled down, Ah Duan told me a lot to take a good rest, and then calmed down his worries and left.

I heard that he is very busy, but no matter how busy he is, he always remembers to take care of his sister.

Ah Duan is a brother who loves his sister very much.

When there were only two people left in the ward, the girl in the next bed leaned over and said to me seriously:

"Thank you, Xia Zi."

I was stunned for a moment, and it took me a while to realize that Xia Zi had probably helped her.

These pasts are unknown to me, so I just smiled and accepted her thanks.

She stared at me for a while, tilted her head, and said with a little disappointment:

"Natsuko, don't you recognize me? I am Miki Uchiha who graduated at the same time as you, and now I have become a Jonin at the same time. We are really destined. Although, only you and me are left in the same class..."

Her voice gradually dropped, her eyes were dim and sad, and she said again with a serious face:

"Thank you for helping me block those two sand ninjas when I was in danger."

I am speechless.

Do you mean "You're welcome", or "Then you owe me a favor"?

What kind of girl is Xia Zi?I still don't know much about this, and I don't plan to imitate Xia Zi's character and live a cautious and submissive life.

Two completely different people, no matter how imitated, there will be flaws.

A Duan is Xia Zi's close relative, but after getting along these few days, I found that the two siblings are not inseparable, at least he doesn't feel that the younger sister is behaving abnormally.

To me, he did the best that a brother can do to his sister.

The profession of ninja must be to spend less time with family members and leave more. Of course, it is impossible to be familiar with every detail like ordinary family members.

He never knew that his sister's body had already been replaced by a stranger.

The cicadas were chirping outside the window, and the sound changed endlessly.

"This summer seems to be particularly long."

Miki said.Yearning and nostalgia flashed in his eyes.

"If it wasn't for the war, Konoha would be holding the summer festival."

I changed my mind and said tentatively:

"The Gion Festival in Kyoto is full of fire, trees and silver flowers every year, and it is so beautiful."

"Kyoto?" She looked puzzled.

"There are also people called Heian Jing." I said.

She just smiled and said:

"Is it a town in the Land of Wind?"

"Xia Zi, you have been hiding in the Land of Wind for two years, and you are very familiar with it. Fortunately, otherwise, we would have come back this time."

I suddenly understood that although the people here spoke Japanese, it was not the Japan I was familiar with in my previous life.

Kyoto, known as Heianjing in ancient times.There is neither Kyoto nor Heian-kyo here.

country of wind.

I have never heard of this country.

There were footsteps at the door, and the door of the ward was pulled open.

Miki moved her eyes away from me, and shouted respectfully:

"Teacher Menyan, Teacher Xiaochun."
