Benefit
Expanded version of Chapter 1
And she just said it calmly.
Judging from her regretful attitude, Xianglin felt that there seemed to be something hidden about holding the ceremony.
"Has that guy known Sasuke for a long time? A former companion?" Xianglin asked after thinking for a moment.
She shook her head: "No, Xiao Mo has no companions."
"When did they know each other?" Suddenly remembered that Sasuke used that strange bird to send her a message. Could it be that something happened during the temporary separation of the team?Speaking of it, everyone except Sasuke was held back by Uchiha Itachi's teammates in Tianjiang City, so that they lost contact with Sasuke later. If the team of people who died outside the city had nothing to do with them, does it mean that Are there any third-party characters? "What is their relationship?"
"I do not know."
"She and Nangong were on Itachi's side from the beginning, right?"
"I don't know." Roy repeated with the same tone and attitude.
She was in a hurry: "Why don't you know anything! Aren't you also Xiang Yinmo's sister!"
"We haven't seen each other for a long time. Besides, why do I have to know so clearly? These have nothing to do with me, right?" She looked at her with a smile, "You are so nervous because you are worried that Xiaomo will do something that is not good for you Something? Do you like Sasuke Uchiha?"
"Huh? Who, who likes him!" She moved her glasses in a panic, and shouted, "I'm just asking, how did you come to such a conclusion! Don't let your mind wander here!"
"Yes, yes." She couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled. At this time, the red-haired girl was facing her, her face was flushed, and her breathing was heavy. It was because she was trying to calm down some thoughts in her heart that her chest was heaving up and down. His dissatisfaction seemed to be lowered a little, and there was another expression of emotion different from this. Luo Yi instantly comprehended and let out a long "Oh" in his heart. Although it had nothing to do with the problem, it did mean that to that boy. Xianglin, although she is very arrogant, she has never shown it positively.
"Anyway, it's really hard for you today." Luo Yi leaned slightly and said, holding the clothes and preparing to go out.
The sunlight outside gradually changed from the initial golden yellow to the crimson sunset. The thick fog fell, and they could not distinguish the scenery. At the same time, they heard the roar of an explosion from a distance. In the past two o'clock position, Chakra's reaction appeared, one, two, three... quite flustered.Is it an enemy?No, there are two very familiar characters among them... Xianglin frowned, it was Chonggo and that idiot Shuiyue!Did they find it here!So who are the others?There are more than twenty in number.Putting down her hands, she judged, it was war.
"Hey! Where are you going?" Suddenly she stopped Luo Yi who was trying to leave. From the direction she was walking, was the back room?
"Wash up." She stopped and looked at her seriously.
"It's obvious what happened now! As the master, don't you go and see?"
"The movement happened in the cedar forest behind the altar to the west of Feishan Mountain. There is at least one mountain away from here. The distance is too far, and the number of people is gradually decreasing. I am too lazy to go."
She couldn't help being surprised: "You...can you perceive the specific location?"
"Ah, as long as it is within the range of Feishan, I can feel it a little bit." She nodded.In fact, if you think about it seriously, this is why a large mountain range is named after the family name, not because of the ownership of the territory, but because this mountain has an inseparable connection with the witch. "The first time I met you in the dense forest was because I went to 'meet' the visitors of the tomb robbers in advance, otherwise I would not have arrived so quickly, and seeing how embarrassed you were at the time, if you didn't meet Xiao Mo, you would be lucky to survive I’m afraid I’ll be covered in bruises when I go to the shrine.”
Seeing Luo Yi's indifferent look, she couldn't help clenching her fists.
Hearing her say that, how could she stand idly by? !
Really, the two of them, why did you choose this time to come?Others won't pass by, right?Then, just in case, she should go and have a look!
Pull on Roy Ito!
☆, prepare
On the way to prepare for the surgery, Sasuke walked with Xiang Yinmo.Even though she walked slowly, he still followed her, wanting to see exactly what preparations she was going to make.After all, according to the data compiled, the method of performing the spell is very simple, and there is no too complicated process. Compared with the Feishan witchcraft mentioned by Nangongkou, it is more inclined to the steps carried out by Sakura before.
In the long corridor, Haruno Sakura carried a medicine box and moved towards Yin Mo's room hesitantly.She was obviously thinking about something, when she saw them coming, she paused for a moment, her jade green eyes were very cramped.
Stopping in front of her, Xiang Yinmo looked at her, and took the lead to break the silence: "Is there something wrong?"
"...How do you feel now?" Haruno Sakura asked uncertainly after hesitating for a while.She found that she was not as weak as she imagined, although her face was still pale, wasn't it because Xiang Yinmo had this skin color originally?
"It's all right, thank you." Nodding her head, seeing that the other party stopped talking, she passed Sakura and continued on without any expression on her face. Although her tone was not indifferent, she did not have any kindness. For a moment, Haruno Sakura felt that she was old-fashioned It looks like a doll.
However, she thought again, is Xiang Yinmo such a person?Recalling the few times she got along with her, from the flickering at the beach to the dominance of the hostel, from the coercion of the dense forest to the coldness of the dinner, she subconsciously decided that she should be more vigilant when facing this girl.Grasping the straps of the medicine chest, she turned and followed them.
The first direction of advance was unexpectedly the palace outside, but there was no sign of anyone there, Xiang Yinmo stopped, and looked around thoughtfully, during this period, no one spoke, not tacit understanding, nor mutual In agreement, Haruno Sakura followed behind them, met Sasuke's probing eyes, and faced Yin Mo's straightforward question, she could only lower her head and respond with eyes and nose and nose and heart.
Unexpectedly, Kakashi-sensei and Naruto went elsewhere after only a short delay in Luo Yi's room.
Just start looking one by one.It was Sasuke and Xiang Yinmo who walked ahead, they had no communication, and they had nothing to say to themselves, so Haruno Sakura could only follow silently at the end.Although it has been many days since she came to Feishan, she basically didn't seriously turn around this huge shrine, which is different from the noise of the previous few days, is it because there is no Naruto by her side?Once there is no daily hustle and bustle (in her opinion), it can become so quiet, and this magnificent shrine built on the mountain is also extraordinarily large because of its unique layout.Following them, she walked through the promenade intertwined with light and shadow, crossed the Gion path paved with pebbles, was attracted by the scenery on the left and right, and involuntarily slowed down her pace.
When Xiang Yinmo stopped, Haruno Sakura still had no idea.The slight sound of running water came from my ears, not the gurgling, but the majestic momentum. After leaving the many houses, I raised my head and saw beyond the mountains, a stone wall that was even higher than Feishan.
It was long after the meal time, Kakashi covered his face with a book and lay leisurely on the wooden fence basking in the sun. When he sensed someone approaching, he gently pulled down the corner of the book and opened his eyes: "Hey, everyone."
Greeting Yin Mo and him was as natural as if the previous confrontation hadn't happened: "Where is Uzumaki Naruto?"
Kakashi raised a finger and gestured to the top with a smile. In an instant, she jumped down the corridor, took a few steps back, and looked up, only to see a small orange figure moving quickly on the bare stone wall.The sun was dazzling, she shook her head, narrowed her eyes slightly, trying to see his running track clearly.On the crimson stone tiles, in the hazy clouds, Naruto Uzumaki can be seen flying on the smooth and steep cliff holding Kunaifei in one hand. He seems to have just climbed up, only a little higher than the torii gate at the back of the shrine, and a small waterfall pours down Below him, there was a cloud of mist, and she tried to squint her eyes again, but after a while, she couldn't see him anymore.
"Is he training?" Lowering his head, Xiang Yin Mo walked to a shadowy place where the sun couldn't reach, and asked.
"Naruto! What are you doing!" Haruno Sakura's loud cry sounded beside her ears, so she consciously stayed away from the high-decibel volume.
"Sakura! What did you say!" The other side also responded positively, but it seemed that both sides could only hear vague voices, and couldn't hear what the other side was saying.
"Naruto! You! Here! Me! Down! Come!"
The orange figure became clear again.
"Sakura, are you calling me?" He ran up to them panting.
"What are you doing up there?" Haruno Sakura cleared her throat.
"I want to go up to see it, but it seems that I can't go up!" He put away Kunai, looked at Xiang Yin Mo with doubts and amazement, "Xiang Xiaomo, how high is this mountain?"
"I don't know how tall, but what do you call me?"
"Xiang Xiaomo..." He blinked, but didn't feel anything wrong.Because Luo Yi called her Xiaomo before, and heard that her surname was Xiang, he thought her name was Xiang Xiaomo for a while. Even if he realized the misunderstanding later, he just let it be because he was too lazy to change his words.
"My name is Xiang Yinmo." She corrected.
He waved his hand indifferently: "Well, well, don't mind this little thing."
She said "oh", but didn't pursue it: "That's right, I decided to implement his brother's technique," she said, motioning to Sasuke over there, and then looked at Naruto, "Because I don't have chakra , need your help."
"No problem!" He smiled cheerfully, "When will the surgery be performed? How should I do it?"
"In the evening, I need you to provide some Nine-Tails Chakra."
"Okay!" Without any hesitation, he immediately agreed.Originally, she thought she needed to explain something, but he had no doubts about his plan and didn't study it carefully, which surprised her.He's a ninja after all, and
As Kyuubi's Jinchuriki, he is the target of many people. Is it really appropriate to trust her so much?
"Now I'm going to make some preparations, and find me in the side hall after dark." Without thinking too much, he finished speaking to Yin Mo, leaned slightly to say goodbye to them, then turned and left.
Naruto nodded, gearing up to challenge the cliff again: "Hey Sasuke, would you like to go up there with me?"
"No." He waved his hand, ready to check the situation, so he walked towards the way he came.
Looking at his leaving figure, and at the unsuspecting Naruto, Sakura narrowed her eyes worriedly: "Mr. Kakashi, is this really okay?"
"Don't worry," Kakashi rested on his arms, still focused on making out with Heaven, and said casually, "There are so many people watching, she won't be allowed to mess around."
She breathed a sigh of relief: "Then... I'll go to Sister Nangong to see if there's anything I need to help with."
"Go." He replied calmly, turning over a page of the novel, and the expression hidden behind the book was solemn and vigilant.
Indeed, no one wants anything to happen to Itachi and Naruto, but the purpose of that girl is not clear until now, and there is no guarantee that she will not act recklessly. If something unexpected happens, not only them, but also Nangong and Sasuke Stand against her...
Except Ito Roy.
☆, blood array
After three failures, Xiang Yinmo finally fastened Feidan's belt. This was her first time wearing a miko costume, and it must be the last time.
The waterfall flows down with astonishing momentum behind it, and when you look up, you can see the peaks with no peaks, submerged in the clouds and mist, caught by the afternoon sun, and the light of orange and pale gold falls straight down, in the aroused Splashes of water create a gorgeous rainbow.After straightening the collar of her white shirt, she found a relatively clean rock and sat down. In front of her eyes was a red torii gate of unusual height, standing on the other side of the waterfall pool surrounded by stones at the exit of the forest.This is a place where the ritual is performed, it is quiet and quiet, and the ultimate goal is to purify the mind. However, her mind is like still water, and there is nothing to calm down. She just repeats the necessary actions before the ceremony. However, when the cold water is poured from her head, she wakes I shuddered, just wanting to end it quickly.
When her long hair was completely dry, Xiang Yinmo took out a long crimson rope and tied it at the end of her hair. So far, all the work was done. She got up and walked towards the main hall of the shrine.Different from Luo Yi's inheritance of reverse walking before, what she is going to implement now is one of Feishan's forbidden techniques. Unlike the extreme method of forcibly awakening Itachi found by Nangong before, she finally completed the change after many days of hard work.What Sasuke said was right at the time, it is impossible for the caster to be safe and sound with such a technique. However, she doesn't care if it's just a loss of life. Anyway, she has been doing things that excessively consume life since before.
Because of this, she was finally fooled by her in a few words about the risks of performing the surgery.
Walking into the main hall, she lit a candle in each of the four corners, and then stood in the center of the temple.After pondering for a while, she took out a knife and cut a new wound on her arm.The first thing she saw was pale tissue, and then the bright red blood immediately oozes out and flows down her arm. She opened and closed her palm a few times, and when the blood was enough, she began to draw a huge symbol on the ground.
One stroke at a time, she presents it mechanically and perfectly.She has never performed Fei Shan's spells with such seriousness and concentration. Originally, she thought that she would not have such an opportunity. As the youngest and most unpromising descendant of Fei Shan, she couldn't even do the basic induction. There is no tacit understanding with this land at all. If it is not because her own sword skills have been improved to the point where she can stand shoulder to shoulder with Sen, maybe it is impossible to even master the reverse movement. However, now she thinks, even such a weak Now she is wearing the costume of a priestess and holding the ceremony with pious belief. An incredible feeling spreads from the depths of her heart. She looks at the blood array on the ground, and the ancient characters are clearly drawn in the round symbol. She moves as if something sleeping is about to wake up, on the coming night of the full moon.
In her mind, a corner of the old book was opened, and it was constantly flipped by the blowing wind. She saw hieroglyphs passing by, like pictures but not pictures, things fell one after another, the sky fell apart, and nameless fire swept in. It turns into a moment.
In an instant, a certain chaotic place suddenly became clear, and an unknown spell came into effect quietly. She paused, and then completely stopped what she was doing.That's right, the Apocalypse of Mirrors originally recorded such a thing.
When Uzumaki Naruto arrived at the main hall, he saw Itachi lying in the middle of the blood formation, Nangong was away from them and sitting quietly in a corner outside the hall, and Xiang Yinmo was writing crazily on a stone not far from her with a strange expression What, the sleeves of the wide clothes were still rolled up, and there were more than one bloodstain on her white arm, like a brownish long worm clinging ferociously to her slender wrist.He couldn't figure it out for a while, and looked at Nangong with questioning eyes, and the reply he got was also unclear.
"That...Xiang Xiaomo?" Reluctantly, he approached and asked tentatively.
She paused suddenly, and after a few seconds, realizing that it was dusk, she put away a stack of rice papers, crumpled them into balls and threw them into the stone pillar where the fire was lit in front of her.
Due to the need to mobilize chakra after the change of the technique, she asked Naruto, who has the power of nine tails in his body, to assist in advance. Xiang Yinmo was really surprised that he never asked her any questions like that.
At this time, Naruto looked at the solemn palace inside and was a little speechless: "Is it okay to do this..."
"It doesn't matter, because it's outside the palace." She turned around slowly and walked into the room with him. When she passed Nangong, she took the bandage she handed over, wrapped it around the wound twice, and put down the sleeve.
"After dark, Uzumaki, put your hands here." She pointed to the two small circle symbols drawn next to Itachi, connected by distorted bloodstains, a bit similar to the gossip formation, but the terminal is not closed, The two poles of yin and yang are drawn in the middle.
"Xiang Xiaomo can just call me Naruto!" The young man waved his hand boldly, "Is it necessary to wait until dark? I don't need to do anything other than gather chakra?"
"Yes, please wait a few more minutes." She thought it would be dark soon.At that time, the fog will become thinner temporarily, and the moon will probably be clearly visible. "Usually only those who are close or familiar will be called by name. I think there is nothing wrong with calling you Uzumaki-san."
"But don't you also call her Nangong?" He pointed at Nangong suspiciously.
"That's because I've been used to calling it that since I was a child."
"But it feels weird to call me that way," the young man frowned, and then laughed again, "Forget it, Xiao Mo, you can just call me Naruto, whether you are intimate or not, anyway, I will slowly talk to you in the future." Familiarize yourself!"
Xiang Yinmo has never been obsessed with the matter of "address". At this time, he has nothing to refuse when he makes such a request.She nodded, turned around and approached the outside of the hall: "If no one comes again, I will close the door."
"Hey, isn't Sasuke coming?"
She couldn't answer, so she closed the door silently, and Nangong over there said leisurely: "I heard the explosion just now, and he said he wanted to go around to check the situation, didn't you meet him?"
"That's it." Naruto shook his head, knelt down on the ground, leaned forward slightly and put his hands on the round talisman, while Xiang Yinmo returned to the blood formation and stood beside Itachi.
The world began to fall into a vast darkness. Unlike what she expected before, thick fog filled the entire shrine, covering the sky and the moon. In the four corners of the quiet hall, the lit red candles emitted light that was not enough to illuminate the center. Shaking, the whole hall flickered. Nangong watched the two people in the middle nervously. The strange environment and uneasy mood seemed to overwhelm her.
Not paying attention to other things, Naruto lowered his head, took a deep breath, and began to condense the orange-red Chakra.I don't know how long it has passed, it was only a few seconds, he didn't care, he was told by Xiao Mo not to think about it, it is better not to talk, so he just stared at the thin marks on the edge of the round talisman, watching them change from the original almost black The dark red began to change, which was the effect of his condensed chakra. From the place supported by his hands, from the yin and yang poles, a soft light was emitted. The outermost layer of the light was surrounded by the same orange-red color. He couldn't help squinting his eyes, because too much If you get too close, you will feel that the center of the light is dazzlingly white.
Soon, the light spread along the veins of the round talisman, filling itself first, and then gradually climbing up the huge blood formation along the connecting track, bursting out with a more dazzling light.After a while, those rays of light turned into tangible traces surrounding Itachi, climbing up Xiang Yinmo's body, like a swimming snake clinging to the skin, emitting a gray-blue light different from Chakra.
Closing her eyes, she raised her hands. The key to success lies in whether the chakra can be activated accurately, and whether the amount of chakra extracted is enough to trigger the operation.Originally, according to the records in the book, it is not a blood formation and does not need seals. However, my body has a few more restrictions than ordinary people. I can only choose to change the process of performing spells in this way. Moreover, seal seals are obviously more important than learning dance. suit myself.
With her thumbs overlapping and her left hand on top, she slowly and accurately made a Siyin gesture. The scorching sensation released by Chakra in her body spread along the veins to every corner of her body, while distant intermittent roars came from her ears. She looked focused , as if unheard, until the last seal, a hurricane formed under her feet, and then spiraled upwards rapidly, her clothes and bundles of hair swayed violently, while she stabilized herself, she pressed down, as if restraining the violent wind, and danced along with it His sleeves were lifted up, revealing dark red bloodstains looming.In the blinding temple, which was so dark that it was blindingly bright, Nangong stared nervously. She wondered if it was a delusion that she saw the bloodstains on Xiang Yin Mo's arms gradually disappearing due to the burst of light. Looking to the side, a blue spot of light emerged from the blood array after a while. More and more, more and more dense, slowly floating up, staying on Itachi's body, and gradually rising into the air for a while until it dispersed.
Suddenly she swayed towards Yin Mo's body, moved her left foot back and barely stabilized, the irresistible burning sensation seemed to burn her to death, the cyan mantra surfaced on the surface of the skin, and suddenly she clapped her hands together, bursting out with even stronger power , The superficial wound on Itachi's body began to heal. Originally, his breathing was very weak, but gradually, as his condition improved, he finally recovered.
Never daring to raise his head, nor dare to speak rashly, Uzumaki Naruto propped his head on the ground and stared blankly at the talisman drawn by Xiang Yinmo with blood. He felt that Chakra was constantly being sent out of his body, and only then did he understand why she had to use The most important thing is the power of the Nine Tails. If this amount of chakra is provided by oneself, it will not only be insufficient but also dangerous!Therefore, he closed his eyes and concentrated on chakra. He didn't know how long it had passed, but he was caught off guard. Suddenly, the connection was abruptly disconnected, as if electric sparks collided with each other, and the strong repulsive force swung him back. Sitting steadily on the ground, seeing the cyan and scarlet lights disappear, and Xiang Yin Mo collapsed on the blood formation, breathing heavily and drooping his head, the red rope used to tie her hair was untied at some point, and the ink hair fell loose and covered her. Drowning in the vast gray darkness.
The candles in the four corners were about to burn out, and not long after the operation was disconnected, they finally went out one after another. Nangong rushed forward anxiously to check the status of the two, wondering if the operation was a success or a failure?
"It's okay, just watch over him, he should wake up soon." Gently pushing Nangong's hand away, she stood up tremblingly on her hands, looked at Uchiha Itachi's situation, and sighed secretly.It's really thrilling, if the disconnection operation is done earlier, it won't be completely over.
However, since there is such a coincidence, it just means that Uchiha Itachi should not die in the first place, right?Xiang Yinmo thought to himself.Although he had doubts about forcibly waking up a man who intended to die, whether it was good or bad for him, but in any case, in this way, he had to face the indelible past again and find a new path.
"Xiao Mo, thank you." Nangong wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.At this time, she couldn't thank her in words, her excitement and joy were intertwined, and her emotions that could not be concealed were beyond words, that's all she could say.
"Yeah." She also let go of her worries, but she didn't relax completely. She just turned around slowly and smiled at the boy next to her, "Thank you for your hard work, Naruto."
"Oh!" The boy laughed and gave her a thumbs up.
Nangong finally couldn't help laughing together. Seeing her walking towards the door, she hurriedly said, "Little Mo, don't leave, you have lost too much blood and can't stand still? I have Zengxue Pill here..."
She turned her back to Nangong and waved her hand: "It doesn't matter, just blood, bone marrow will be produced soon."
"You'll faint?" Nangong warned from behind.
She opened the door of the palace, saw the figure outside, paused for a while, and walked out without saying a word.Naruto wanted to hurry up and notify Sasuke, so he immediately got up and ran out the door.
Nangong shook his head helplessly, looked at Itachi, realized that the environment was too dark, and lit a few candles nearby.The flickering candlelight did not illuminate his face very clearly. However, unlike his pale appearance before, he might not be able to see clearly under the cover of the night, but he still regained his blood color after all.
The tension and fear all the time were completely relaxed at this moment, as if the strength of her body had also faded away. Sitting slumped next to Itachi, she realized that the tiredness and fatigue of the past few days had swept over her, and her barely supported body had reached the maximum load. , but it's great that Itachi is fine, thinking that he can recover, she feels that her efforts are worth it, but when he wakes up, this stubborn man will be unhappy, right?Will you blame yourself?Blame myself for secretly imposing forbidden spells on him before their brothers fought?Blame yourself for arbitrarily advocating for him to come back after he made up his mind?
Caressing his slightly hot face, she couldn't help but feel choked up.
It doesn't matter how much you complain, when you wake up, please vent to me.
☆, awareness
He stood there, surrounded by the cloudy and treacherous fog, unable to see his expression clearly.The surrounding lantern pillars were all lit up, illuminating the road under their feet.Xiang Yinmo walked out of the temple and walked towards him. When he saw her, he immediately walked quickly along the stone path.
She reached out and grabbed the long hair that was in the way to her back, turned slightly sideways and continued to walk in the direction that was not him: "You can go in now, your brother will wake up soon."
"Yes, yes!" Then Naruto Uzumaki rushed out from the entrance of the temple, heard her words, and echoed excitedly.
However, he uncharacteristically walked towards Yin Mo who was leaving, Naruto quickly trotted forward, saw him grab her arm, then let go as if he had noticed something, and asked: "Where are you going? "
She didn't answer his question, and she didn't turn around to look at the people behind her. She just stopped to look at the scenery west of Mount Fei, and asked casually, "Shouldn't you go and see the situation of Uchiha Itachi first?"
"He'll be fine. Isn't he going to wake up soon?" Taking another step forward, he blocked her way and looked at her pale golden face, not because of the blurred night, nor because of the burning lights , the side effects of the operation are clearly reflected in her expression and all actions at the moment, obviously Naruto is no exception, outputting that amount of chakra at one time made him very tired.But what happened?One was smiling and wanted to pull him back to see his elder brother who was destined to be fine but hadn't woken up yet, and the other was walking in the direction of his residence with an unconcerned look. Did he think his perseverance was too strong?
"After hearing the explosion, you just surveyed the surrounding area for a while, and then you have been guarding outside the hall, so now I'm going to check the specific situation." She said without changing her expression.Although she appeared to be harmless, the situation she could see intuitively was not something she could easily deal with by saying that she was fine.
Sasuke turned to grab her uninjured other hand to prevent her from running around: "No need, Luo Yi and Sakura have already rushed over, and now all you have to do is go back to your room and take care of it."
Hearing this, Xiang Yinmo narrowed his eyes inexplicably.
Smelling the smell of gunpowder in the air, Naruto hurried forward to smooth things over.To be honest, he has never been able to understand why the relationship between the two "was up and down". Didn't they act happily together?But now it seems that it cannot be defined by pure companionship or mutual benefit relationship.
He hurried over: "Yes, Xiang Xiaomo, you can rest assured and leave it to them, let's go back and rest!"
"Well, I'm going to heal my wounds, Uchiha, you go in." Hearing Naruto's words, Xiang Yinmo suddenly changed his mind and didn't insist. He looked at Sasuke again, and Feng Danyun lightly indicated the direction of the temple.
Sasuke was suddenly speechless, just staring at her with an unpredictable expression.
"Aren't you going?" She asked again, her expression flickering, "Or...you are thinking about how to resolve the embarrassment after entering because it is not easy to ask your brother who is recovering from a serious illness?"
Naruto standing next to him was startled.Her words were so light that they would not cause any waves even if they fell on the surface of the water, but when they fell into Naruto's ears, they seemed to be provocative.
It turns out that the source of the problem lies with you, Xiang Xiaomo!Naruto yelled in his heart, and looked at Sasuke again, fortunately, the person who has always been moody and angry still looked flat, and he didn't mean to pursue it.
Sasuke let go of her slowly, and said firmly, "No."
"Then let me change the subject." Now she suppressed the smile in her eyes, still with a meaningless attitude, and didn't care whether her behavior was pleasing or not. She looked at his obsidian eyes seriously and attentively, and asked each word Said, "When are you going to attack Konoha?"
"Huh?" Naruto couldn't help but wonder now.If he joked in his heart just now because he was happy and relaxed after the operation, then now he can't express anything other than shock, "Xiang Xiaomo, what nonsense are you talking about, why does Sasuke want revenge on Konoha!" He trotted up to the two of them and questioned.
Seeing Naruto's excited expression, she asked indifferently, "Didn't Uchiha say why?"
"But isn't Brother Itachi all right now!" he said anxiously.
"It has nothing to do with Itachi's will. As I have already said, I will not forgive the higher-ups who caused all this." Sasuke turned around and looked into Naruto's eyes seriously. There was no longer the confrontation under the bridge that day, and his emotions were no longer So excited, yet he looked at him, his obsidian pupils flashing calm and surly.
No matter how much they talk, it is impossible for him to give up everything and start over, let alone forget the hatred to get happiness?He didn't expect that kind of thing long ago, and he never thought that he would end well.To him, revenge is not righteousness or selfishness, but a responsibility, a responsibility that he, as the descendant of a clan, cannot shirk even if he dies.
So, now he just wants to pay in blood.
"Really." Changing from his usual brisk tone, he drooped his eyelashes.Sure enough, there is no way to change this fact?Even though he kept wanting to change back in his heart, and kept wanting to make things develop in the direction he expected, but sure enough, he couldn't persuade Sasuke no matter what.
Naruto couldn't help but smile wryly. Recently, he can feel his own powerlessness more and more. On the contrary, he can understand his position more and more. Because of this position, as a member of Konoha, as Sasuke's best friend, It is even more impossible to stand idly by. No matter how others define the boy in front of him, he is not the target he should attack. It is precisely because he understands Sasuke's pain that it is impossible to stand on the opposite side of him.
But... once he has made up his mind, can he just watch Sasuke go and kill the other two high-ranking Konohas?cannot.And not only himself, but also countless Konoha ninjas would stand in front of him, and from the moment Sasuke became an assistant blade advisor, he had already become the enemy of the entire Konoha.
It is completely different from the previous rebellious nature, and there is no room for redemption.
Gritting his teeth, Naruto loosened his clenched fist again, unable to persuade in vain: "Although I understand your feelings... But really, don't indulge in revenge anymore, it will ruin you!"
"You understand, but you still want to stop me?" Sasuke immediately sneered.
Naruto was silent, looking at Sasuke under the night, standing at the boundary between candlelight and darkness, the pale yellow light of the lantern entered his deep eyes little by little, gradually covering the original hostility.
"Sasuke, I never thought about it that way...I don't want to kill you to become a hero, but if you decide to attack Konoha, I have to fight you." Seriously looking into Sasuke's eyes, he realized that he Also be so calm.
Sasuke looked at Naruto's azure eyes that were slightly clouded by the mist, even in such a dark night, they still exuded an unusual light. say what?"
Naruto raised the corner of his mouth reluctantly: "I, I have known from before that we cannot understand each other in a normal way. If we want to understand each other with you, we can only rely on fists... But, you also foresee it, right? Now you and I are fighting, probably, we will all die," looked at him intently with a wry smile, as if to see more turmoil from those eyes that are not easy to make waves, "If we all die in the end, don't you It’s Uchiha, and I’m no longer Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, so I don’t have to bear anything... At that time, we can truly understand each other in that world.”
He was clearly talking about very sad things, but the smile still showed on his face. At the cost of dying together, he told Sasuke that he really understood the hatred, and there was really no other way but to make such a bad move to stay with him.
Sasuke looked at him mockingly: "I will not change my mind, let alone die, if you want to die, you die yourself."
The words are not speculative, so stalemate, in such an untimely scene tonight, however, it seems to be destined to be inevitable.
Involuntarily, Xiang Yin Mo looked at the young man next to him again, looked at his serious and determined eyes, and wondered if he really could only do this?Like an inextricable knot, entangled in the shackles called life.Because revenge is an obligation and an obsession, there is no way to choose an easy path.
Judging from her regretful attitude, Xianglin felt that there seemed to be something hidden about holding the ceremony.
"Has that guy known Sasuke for a long time? A former companion?" Xianglin asked after thinking for a moment.
She shook her head: "No, Xiao Mo has no companions."
"When did they know each other?" Suddenly remembered that Sasuke used that strange bird to send her a message. Could it be that something happened during the temporary separation of the team?Speaking of it, everyone except Sasuke was held back by Uchiha Itachi's teammates in Tianjiang City, so that they lost contact with Sasuke later. If the team of people who died outside the city had nothing to do with them, does it mean that Are there any third-party characters? "What is their relationship?"
"I do not know."
"She and Nangong were on Itachi's side from the beginning, right?"
"I don't know." Roy repeated with the same tone and attitude.
She was in a hurry: "Why don't you know anything! Aren't you also Xiang Yinmo's sister!"
"We haven't seen each other for a long time. Besides, why do I have to know so clearly? These have nothing to do with me, right?" She looked at her with a smile, "You are so nervous because you are worried that Xiaomo will do something that is not good for you Something? Do you like Sasuke Uchiha?"
"Huh? Who, who likes him!" She moved her glasses in a panic, and shouted, "I'm just asking, how did you come to such a conclusion! Don't let your mind wander here!"
"Yes, yes." She couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled. At this time, the red-haired girl was facing her, her face was flushed, and her breathing was heavy. It was because she was trying to calm down some thoughts in her heart that her chest was heaving up and down. His dissatisfaction seemed to be lowered a little, and there was another expression of emotion different from this. Luo Yi instantly comprehended and let out a long "Oh" in his heart. Although it had nothing to do with the problem, it did mean that to that boy. Xianglin, although she is very arrogant, she has never shown it positively.
"Anyway, it's really hard for you today." Luo Yi leaned slightly and said, holding the clothes and preparing to go out.
The sunlight outside gradually changed from the initial golden yellow to the crimson sunset. The thick fog fell, and they could not distinguish the scenery. At the same time, they heard the roar of an explosion from a distance. In the past two o'clock position, Chakra's reaction appeared, one, two, three... quite flustered.Is it an enemy?No, there are two very familiar characters among them... Xianglin frowned, it was Chonggo and that idiot Shuiyue!Did they find it here!So who are the others?There are more than twenty in number.Putting down her hands, she judged, it was war.
"Hey! Where are you going?" Suddenly she stopped Luo Yi who was trying to leave. From the direction she was walking, was the back room?
"Wash up." She stopped and looked at her seriously.
"It's obvious what happened now! As the master, don't you go and see?"
"The movement happened in the cedar forest behind the altar to the west of Feishan Mountain. There is at least one mountain away from here. The distance is too far, and the number of people is gradually decreasing. I am too lazy to go."
She couldn't help being surprised: "You...can you perceive the specific location?"
"Ah, as long as it is within the range of Feishan, I can feel it a little bit." She nodded.In fact, if you think about it seriously, this is why a large mountain range is named after the family name, not because of the ownership of the territory, but because this mountain has an inseparable connection with the witch. "The first time I met you in the dense forest was because I went to 'meet' the visitors of the tomb robbers in advance, otherwise I would not have arrived so quickly, and seeing how embarrassed you were at the time, if you didn't meet Xiao Mo, you would be lucky to survive I’m afraid I’ll be covered in bruises when I go to the shrine.”
Seeing Luo Yi's indifferent look, she couldn't help clenching her fists.
Hearing her say that, how could she stand idly by? !
Really, the two of them, why did you choose this time to come?Others won't pass by, right?Then, just in case, she should go and have a look!
Pull on Roy Ito!
☆, prepare
On the way to prepare for the surgery, Sasuke walked with Xiang Yinmo.Even though she walked slowly, he still followed her, wanting to see exactly what preparations she was going to make.After all, according to the data compiled, the method of performing the spell is very simple, and there is no too complicated process. Compared with the Feishan witchcraft mentioned by Nangongkou, it is more inclined to the steps carried out by Sakura before.
In the long corridor, Haruno Sakura carried a medicine box and moved towards Yin Mo's room hesitantly.She was obviously thinking about something, when she saw them coming, she paused for a moment, her jade green eyes were very cramped.
Stopping in front of her, Xiang Yinmo looked at her, and took the lead to break the silence: "Is there something wrong?"
"...How do you feel now?" Haruno Sakura asked uncertainly after hesitating for a while.She found that she was not as weak as she imagined, although her face was still pale, wasn't it because Xiang Yinmo had this skin color originally?
"It's all right, thank you." Nodding her head, seeing that the other party stopped talking, she passed Sakura and continued on without any expression on her face. Although her tone was not indifferent, she did not have any kindness. For a moment, Haruno Sakura felt that she was old-fashioned It looks like a doll.
However, she thought again, is Xiang Yinmo such a person?Recalling the few times she got along with her, from the flickering at the beach to the dominance of the hostel, from the coercion of the dense forest to the coldness of the dinner, she subconsciously decided that she should be more vigilant when facing this girl.Grasping the straps of the medicine chest, she turned and followed them.
The first direction of advance was unexpectedly the palace outside, but there was no sign of anyone there, Xiang Yinmo stopped, and looked around thoughtfully, during this period, no one spoke, not tacit understanding, nor mutual In agreement, Haruno Sakura followed behind them, met Sasuke's probing eyes, and faced Yin Mo's straightforward question, she could only lower her head and respond with eyes and nose and nose and heart.
Unexpectedly, Kakashi-sensei and Naruto went elsewhere after only a short delay in Luo Yi's room.
Just start looking one by one.It was Sasuke and Xiang Yinmo who walked ahead, they had no communication, and they had nothing to say to themselves, so Haruno Sakura could only follow silently at the end.Although it has been many days since she came to Feishan, she basically didn't seriously turn around this huge shrine, which is different from the noise of the previous few days, is it because there is no Naruto by her side?Once there is no daily hustle and bustle (in her opinion), it can become so quiet, and this magnificent shrine built on the mountain is also extraordinarily large because of its unique layout.Following them, she walked through the promenade intertwined with light and shadow, crossed the Gion path paved with pebbles, was attracted by the scenery on the left and right, and involuntarily slowed down her pace.
When Xiang Yinmo stopped, Haruno Sakura still had no idea.The slight sound of running water came from my ears, not the gurgling, but the majestic momentum. After leaving the many houses, I raised my head and saw beyond the mountains, a stone wall that was even higher than Feishan.
It was long after the meal time, Kakashi covered his face with a book and lay leisurely on the wooden fence basking in the sun. When he sensed someone approaching, he gently pulled down the corner of the book and opened his eyes: "Hey, everyone."
Greeting Yin Mo and him was as natural as if the previous confrontation hadn't happened: "Where is Uzumaki Naruto?"
Kakashi raised a finger and gestured to the top with a smile. In an instant, she jumped down the corridor, took a few steps back, and looked up, only to see a small orange figure moving quickly on the bare stone wall.The sun was dazzling, she shook her head, narrowed her eyes slightly, trying to see his running track clearly.On the crimson stone tiles, in the hazy clouds, Naruto Uzumaki can be seen flying on the smooth and steep cliff holding Kunaifei in one hand. He seems to have just climbed up, only a little higher than the torii gate at the back of the shrine, and a small waterfall pours down Below him, there was a cloud of mist, and she tried to squint her eyes again, but after a while, she couldn't see him anymore.
"Is he training?" Lowering his head, Xiang Yin Mo walked to a shadowy place where the sun couldn't reach, and asked.
"Naruto! What are you doing!" Haruno Sakura's loud cry sounded beside her ears, so she consciously stayed away from the high-decibel volume.
"Sakura! What did you say!" The other side also responded positively, but it seemed that both sides could only hear vague voices, and couldn't hear what the other side was saying.
"Naruto! You! Here! Me! Down! Come!"
The orange figure became clear again.
"Sakura, are you calling me?" He ran up to them panting.
"What are you doing up there?" Haruno Sakura cleared her throat.
"I want to go up to see it, but it seems that I can't go up!" He put away Kunai, looked at Xiang Yin Mo with doubts and amazement, "Xiang Xiaomo, how high is this mountain?"
"I don't know how tall, but what do you call me?"
"Xiang Xiaomo..." He blinked, but didn't feel anything wrong.Because Luo Yi called her Xiaomo before, and heard that her surname was Xiang, he thought her name was Xiang Xiaomo for a while. Even if he realized the misunderstanding later, he just let it be because he was too lazy to change his words.
"My name is Xiang Yinmo." She corrected.
He waved his hand indifferently: "Well, well, don't mind this little thing."
She said "oh", but didn't pursue it: "That's right, I decided to implement his brother's technique," she said, motioning to Sasuke over there, and then looked at Naruto, "Because I don't have chakra , need your help."
"No problem!" He smiled cheerfully, "When will the surgery be performed? How should I do it?"
"In the evening, I need you to provide some Nine-Tails Chakra."
"Okay!" Without any hesitation, he immediately agreed.Originally, she thought she needed to explain something, but he had no doubts about his plan and didn't study it carefully, which surprised her.He's a ninja after all, and
As Kyuubi's Jinchuriki, he is the target of many people. Is it really appropriate to trust her so much?
"Now I'm going to make some preparations, and find me in the side hall after dark." Without thinking too much, he finished speaking to Yin Mo, leaned slightly to say goodbye to them, then turned and left.
Naruto nodded, gearing up to challenge the cliff again: "Hey Sasuke, would you like to go up there with me?"
"No." He waved his hand, ready to check the situation, so he walked towards the way he came.
Looking at his leaving figure, and at the unsuspecting Naruto, Sakura narrowed her eyes worriedly: "Mr. Kakashi, is this really okay?"
"Don't worry," Kakashi rested on his arms, still focused on making out with Heaven, and said casually, "There are so many people watching, she won't be allowed to mess around."
She breathed a sigh of relief: "Then... I'll go to Sister Nangong to see if there's anything I need to help with."
"Go." He replied calmly, turning over a page of the novel, and the expression hidden behind the book was solemn and vigilant.
Indeed, no one wants anything to happen to Itachi and Naruto, but the purpose of that girl is not clear until now, and there is no guarantee that she will not act recklessly. If something unexpected happens, not only them, but also Nangong and Sasuke Stand against her...
Except Ito Roy.
☆, blood array
After three failures, Xiang Yinmo finally fastened Feidan's belt. This was her first time wearing a miko costume, and it must be the last time.
The waterfall flows down with astonishing momentum behind it, and when you look up, you can see the peaks with no peaks, submerged in the clouds and mist, caught by the afternoon sun, and the light of orange and pale gold falls straight down, in the aroused Splashes of water create a gorgeous rainbow.After straightening the collar of her white shirt, she found a relatively clean rock and sat down. In front of her eyes was a red torii gate of unusual height, standing on the other side of the waterfall pool surrounded by stones at the exit of the forest.This is a place where the ritual is performed, it is quiet and quiet, and the ultimate goal is to purify the mind. However, her mind is like still water, and there is nothing to calm down. She just repeats the necessary actions before the ceremony. However, when the cold water is poured from her head, she wakes I shuddered, just wanting to end it quickly.
When her long hair was completely dry, Xiang Yinmo took out a long crimson rope and tied it at the end of her hair. So far, all the work was done. She got up and walked towards the main hall of the shrine.Different from Luo Yi's inheritance of reverse walking before, what she is going to implement now is one of Feishan's forbidden techniques. Unlike the extreme method of forcibly awakening Itachi found by Nangong before, she finally completed the change after many days of hard work.What Sasuke said was right at the time, it is impossible for the caster to be safe and sound with such a technique. However, she doesn't care if it's just a loss of life. Anyway, she has been doing things that excessively consume life since before.
Because of this, she was finally fooled by her in a few words about the risks of performing the surgery.
Walking into the main hall, she lit a candle in each of the four corners, and then stood in the center of the temple.After pondering for a while, she took out a knife and cut a new wound on her arm.The first thing she saw was pale tissue, and then the bright red blood immediately oozes out and flows down her arm. She opened and closed her palm a few times, and when the blood was enough, she began to draw a huge symbol on the ground.
One stroke at a time, she presents it mechanically and perfectly.She has never performed Fei Shan's spells with such seriousness and concentration. Originally, she thought that she would not have such an opportunity. As the youngest and most unpromising descendant of Fei Shan, she couldn't even do the basic induction. There is no tacit understanding with this land at all. If it is not because her own sword skills have been improved to the point where she can stand shoulder to shoulder with Sen, maybe it is impossible to even master the reverse movement. However, now she thinks, even such a weak Now she is wearing the costume of a priestess and holding the ceremony with pious belief. An incredible feeling spreads from the depths of her heart. She looks at the blood array on the ground, and the ancient characters are clearly drawn in the round symbol. She moves as if something sleeping is about to wake up, on the coming night of the full moon.
In her mind, a corner of the old book was opened, and it was constantly flipped by the blowing wind. She saw hieroglyphs passing by, like pictures but not pictures, things fell one after another, the sky fell apart, and nameless fire swept in. It turns into a moment.
In an instant, a certain chaotic place suddenly became clear, and an unknown spell came into effect quietly. She paused, and then completely stopped what she was doing.That's right, the Apocalypse of Mirrors originally recorded such a thing.
When Uzumaki Naruto arrived at the main hall, he saw Itachi lying in the middle of the blood formation, Nangong was away from them and sitting quietly in a corner outside the hall, and Xiang Yinmo was writing crazily on a stone not far from her with a strange expression What, the sleeves of the wide clothes were still rolled up, and there were more than one bloodstain on her white arm, like a brownish long worm clinging ferociously to her slender wrist.He couldn't figure it out for a while, and looked at Nangong with questioning eyes, and the reply he got was also unclear.
"That...Xiang Xiaomo?" Reluctantly, he approached and asked tentatively.
She paused suddenly, and after a few seconds, realizing that it was dusk, she put away a stack of rice papers, crumpled them into balls and threw them into the stone pillar where the fire was lit in front of her.
Due to the need to mobilize chakra after the change of the technique, she asked Naruto, who has the power of nine tails in his body, to assist in advance. Xiang Yinmo was really surprised that he never asked her any questions like that.
At this time, Naruto looked at the solemn palace inside and was a little speechless: "Is it okay to do this..."
"It doesn't matter, because it's outside the palace." She turned around slowly and walked into the room with him. When she passed Nangong, she took the bandage she handed over, wrapped it around the wound twice, and put down the sleeve.
"After dark, Uzumaki, put your hands here." She pointed to the two small circle symbols drawn next to Itachi, connected by distorted bloodstains, a bit similar to the gossip formation, but the terminal is not closed, The two poles of yin and yang are drawn in the middle.
"Xiang Xiaomo can just call me Naruto!" The young man waved his hand boldly, "Is it necessary to wait until dark? I don't need to do anything other than gather chakra?"
"Yes, please wait a few more minutes." She thought it would be dark soon.At that time, the fog will become thinner temporarily, and the moon will probably be clearly visible. "Usually only those who are close or familiar will be called by name. I think there is nothing wrong with calling you Uzumaki-san."
"But don't you also call her Nangong?" He pointed at Nangong suspiciously.
"That's because I've been used to calling it that since I was a child."
"But it feels weird to call me that way," the young man frowned, and then laughed again, "Forget it, Xiao Mo, you can just call me Naruto, whether you are intimate or not, anyway, I will slowly talk to you in the future." Familiarize yourself!"
Xiang Yinmo has never been obsessed with the matter of "address". At this time, he has nothing to refuse when he makes such a request.She nodded, turned around and approached the outside of the hall: "If no one comes again, I will close the door."
"Hey, isn't Sasuke coming?"
She couldn't answer, so she closed the door silently, and Nangong over there said leisurely: "I heard the explosion just now, and he said he wanted to go around to check the situation, didn't you meet him?"
"That's it." Naruto shook his head, knelt down on the ground, leaned forward slightly and put his hands on the round talisman, while Xiang Yinmo returned to the blood formation and stood beside Itachi.
The world began to fall into a vast darkness. Unlike what she expected before, thick fog filled the entire shrine, covering the sky and the moon. In the four corners of the quiet hall, the lit red candles emitted light that was not enough to illuminate the center. Shaking, the whole hall flickered. Nangong watched the two people in the middle nervously. The strange environment and uneasy mood seemed to overwhelm her.
Not paying attention to other things, Naruto lowered his head, took a deep breath, and began to condense the orange-red Chakra.I don't know how long it has passed, it was only a few seconds, he didn't care, he was told by Xiao Mo not to think about it, it is better not to talk, so he just stared at the thin marks on the edge of the round talisman, watching them change from the original almost black The dark red began to change, which was the effect of his condensed chakra. From the place supported by his hands, from the yin and yang poles, a soft light was emitted. The outermost layer of the light was surrounded by the same orange-red color. He couldn't help squinting his eyes, because too much If you get too close, you will feel that the center of the light is dazzlingly white.
Soon, the light spread along the veins of the round talisman, filling itself first, and then gradually climbing up the huge blood formation along the connecting track, bursting out with a more dazzling light.After a while, those rays of light turned into tangible traces surrounding Itachi, climbing up Xiang Yinmo's body, like a swimming snake clinging to the skin, emitting a gray-blue light different from Chakra.
Closing her eyes, she raised her hands. The key to success lies in whether the chakra can be activated accurately, and whether the amount of chakra extracted is enough to trigger the operation.Originally, according to the records in the book, it is not a blood formation and does not need seals. However, my body has a few more restrictions than ordinary people. I can only choose to change the process of performing spells in this way. Moreover, seal seals are obviously more important than learning dance. suit myself.
With her thumbs overlapping and her left hand on top, she slowly and accurately made a Siyin gesture. The scorching sensation released by Chakra in her body spread along the veins to every corner of her body, while distant intermittent roars came from her ears. She looked focused , as if unheard, until the last seal, a hurricane formed under her feet, and then spiraled upwards rapidly, her clothes and bundles of hair swayed violently, while she stabilized herself, she pressed down, as if restraining the violent wind, and danced along with it His sleeves were lifted up, revealing dark red bloodstains looming.In the blinding temple, which was so dark that it was blindingly bright, Nangong stared nervously. She wondered if it was a delusion that she saw the bloodstains on Xiang Yin Mo's arms gradually disappearing due to the burst of light. Looking to the side, a blue spot of light emerged from the blood array after a while. More and more, more and more dense, slowly floating up, staying on Itachi's body, and gradually rising into the air for a while until it dispersed.
Suddenly she swayed towards Yin Mo's body, moved her left foot back and barely stabilized, the irresistible burning sensation seemed to burn her to death, the cyan mantra surfaced on the surface of the skin, and suddenly she clapped her hands together, bursting out with even stronger power , The superficial wound on Itachi's body began to heal. Originally, his breathing was very weak, but gradually, as his condition improved, he finally recovered.
Never daring to raise his head, nor dare to speak rashly, Uzumaki Naruto propped his head on the ground and stared blankly at the talisman drawn by Xiang Yinmo with blood. He felt that Chakra was constantly being sent out of his body, and only then did he understand why she had to use The most important thing is the power of the Nine Tails. If this amount of chakra is provided by oneself, it will not only be insufficient but also dangerous!Therefore, he closed his eyes and concentrated on chakra. He didn't know how long it had passed, but he was caught off guard. Suddenly, the connection was abruptly disconnected, as if electric sparks collided with each other, and the strong repulsive force swung him back. Sitting steadily on the ground, seeing the cyan and scarlet lights disappear, and Xiang Yin Mo collapsed on the blood formation, breathing heavily and drooping his head, the red rope used to tie her hair was untied at some point, and the ink hair fell loose and covered her. Drowning in the vast gray darkness.
The candles in the four corners were about to burn out, and not long after the operation was disconnected, they finally went out one after another. Nangong rushed forward anxiously to check the status of the two, wondering if the operation was a success or a failure?
"It's okay, just watch over him, he should wake up soon." Gently pushing Nangong's hand away, she stood up tremblingly on her hands, looked at Uchiha Itachi's situation, and sighed secretly.It's really thrilling, if the disconnection operation is done earlier, it won't be completely over.
However, since there is such a coincidence, it just means that Uchiha Itachi should not die in the first place, right?Xiang Yinmo thought to himself.Although he had doubts about forcibly waking up a man who intended to die, whether it was good or bad for him, but in any case, in this way, he had to face the indelible past again and find a new path.
"Xiao Mo, thank you." Nangong wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.At this time, she couldn't thank her in words, her excitement and joy were intertwined, and her emotions that could not be concealed were beyond words, that's all she could say.
"Yeah." She also let go of her worries, but she didn't relax completely. She just turned around slowly and smiled at the boy next to her, "Thank you for your hard work, Naruto."
"Oh!" The boy laughed and gave her a thumbs up.
Nangong finally couldn't help laughing together. Seeing her walking towards the door, she hurriedly said, "Little Mo, don't leave, you have lost too much blood and can't stand still? I have Zengxue Pill here..."
She turned her back to Nangong and waved her hand: "It doesn't matter, just blood, bone marrow will be produced soon."
"You'll faint?" Nangong warned from behind.
She opened the door of the palace, saw the figure outside, paused for a while, and walked out without saying a word.Naruto wanted to hurry up and notify Sasuke, so he immediately got up and ran out the door.
Nangong shook his head helplessly, looked at Itachi, realized that the environment was too dark, and lit a few candles nearby.The flickering candlelight did not illuminate his face very clearly. However, unlike his pale appearance before, he might not be able to see clearly under the cover of the night, but he still regained his blood color after all.
The tension and fear all the time were completely relaxed at this moment, as if the strength of her body had also faded away. Sitting slumped next to Itachi, she realized that the tiredness and fatigue of the past few days had swept over her, and her barely supported body had reached the maximum load. , but it's great that Itachi is fine, thinking that he can recover, she feels that her efforts are worth it, but when he wakes up, this stubborn man will be unhappy, right?Will you blame yourself?Blame myself for secretly imposing forbidden spells on him before their brothers fought?Blame yourself for arbitrarily advocating for him to come back after he made up his mind?
Caressing his slightly hot face, she couldn't help but feel choked up.
It doesn't matter how much you complain, when you wake up, please vent to me.
☆, awareness
He stood there, surrounded by the cloudy and treacherous fog, unable to see his expression clearly.The surrounding lantern pillars were all lit up, illuminating the road under their feet.Xiang Yinmo walked out of the temple and walked towards him. When he saw her, he immediately walked quickly along the stone path.
She reached out and grabbed the long hair that was in the way to her back, turned slightly sideways and continued to walk in the direction that was not him: "You can go in now, your brother will wake up soon."
"Yes, yes!" Then Naruto Uzumaki rushed out from the entrance of the temple, heard her words, and echoed excitedly.
However, he uncharacteristically walked towards Yin Mo who was leaving, Naruto quickly trotted forward, saw him grab her arm, then let go as if he had noticed something, and asked: "Where are you going? "
She didn't answer his question, and she didn't turn around to look at the people behind her. She just stopped to look at the scenery west of Mount Fei, and asked casually, "Shouldn't you go and see the situation of Uchiha Itachi first?"
"He'll be fine. Isn't he going to wake up soon?" Taking another step forward, he blocked her way and looked at her pale golden face, not because of the blurred night, nor because of the burning lights , the side effects of the operation are clearly reflected in her expression and all actions at the moment, obviously Naruto is no exception, outputting that amount of chakra at one time made him very tired.But what happened?One was smiling and wanted to pull him back to see his elder brother who was destined to be fine but hadn't woken up yet, and the other was walking in the direction of his residence with an unconcerned look. Did he think his perseverance was too strong?
"After hearing the explosion, you just surveyed the surrounding area for a while, and then you have been guarding outside the hall, so now I'm going to check the specific situation." She said without changing her expression.Although she appeared to be harmless, the situation she could see intuitively was not something she could easily deal with by saying that she was fine.
Sasuke turned to grab her uninjured other hand to prevent her from running around: "No need, Luo Yi and Sakura have already rushed over, and now all you have to do is go back to your room and take care of it."
Hearing this, Xiang Yinmo narrowed his eyes inexplicably.
Smelling the smell of gunpowder in the air, Naruto hurried forward to smooth things over.To be honest, he has never been able to understand why the relationship between the two "was up and down". Didn't they act happily together?But now it seems that it cannot be defined by pure companionship or mutual benefit relationship.
He hurried over: "Yes, Xiang Xiaomo, you can rest assured and leave it to them, let's go back and rest!"
"Well, I'm going to heal my wounds, Uchiha, you go in." Hearing Naruto's words, Xiang Yinmo suddenly changed his mind and didn't insist. He looked at Sasuke again, and Feng Danyun lightly indicated the direction of the temple.
Sasuke was suddenly speechless, just staring at her with an unpredictable expression.
"Aren't you going?" She asked again, her expression flickering, "Or...you are thinking about how to resolve the embarrassment after entering because it is not easy to ask your brother who is recovering from a serious illness?"
Naruto standing next to him was startled.Her words were so light that they would not cause any waves even if they fell on the surface of the water, but when they fell into Naruto's ears, they seemed to be provocative.
It turns out that the source of the problem lies with you, Xiang Xiaomo!Naruto yelled in his heart, and looked at Sasuke again, fortunately, the person who has always been moody and angry still looked flat, and he didn't mean to pursue it.
Sasuke let go of her slowly, and said firmly, "No."
"Then let me change the subject." Now she suppressed the smile in her eyes, still with a meaningless attitude, and didn't care whether her behavior was pleasing or not. She looked at his obsidian eyes seriously and attentively, and asked each word Said, "When are you going to attack Konoha?"
"Huh?" Naruto couldn't help but wonder now.If he joked in his heart just now because he was happy and relaxed after the operation, then now he can't express anything other than shock, "Xiang Xiaomo, what nonsense are you talking about, why does Sasuke want revenge on Konoha!" He trotted up to the two of them and questioned.
Seeing Naruto's excited expression, she asked indifferently, "Didn't Uchiha say why?"
"But isn't Brother Itachi all right now!" he said anxiously.
"It has nothing to do with Itachi's will. As I have already said, I will not forgive the higher-ups who caused all this." Sasuke turned around and looked into Naruto's eyes seriously. There was no longer the confrontation under the bridge that day, and his emotions were no longer So excited, yet he looked at him, his obsidian pupils flashing calm and surly.
No matter how much they talk, it is impossible for him to give up everything and start over, let alone forget the hatred to get happiness?He didn't expect that kind of thing long ago, and he never thought that he would end well.To him, revenge is not righteousness or selfishness, but a responsibility, a responsibility that he, as the descendant of a clan, cannot shirk even if he dies.
So, now he just wants to pay in blood.
"Really." Changing from his usual brisk tone, he drooped his eyelashes.Sure enough, there is no way to change this fact?Even though he kept wanting to change back in his heart, and kept wanting to make things develop in the direction he expected, but sure enough, he couldn't persuade Sasuke no matter what.
Naruto couldn't help but smile wryly. Recently, he can feel his own powerlessness more and more. On the contrary, he can understand his position more and more. Because of this position, as a member of Konoha, as Sasuke's best friend, It is even more impossible to stand idly by. No matter how others define the boy in front of him, he is not the target he should attack. It is precisely because he understands Sasuke's pain that it is impossible to stand on the opposite side of him.
But... once he has made up his mind, can he just watch Sasuke go and kill the other two high-ranking Konohas?cannot.And not only himself, but also countless Konoha ninjas would stand in front of him, and from the moment Sasuke became an assistant blade advisor, he had already become the enemy of the entire Konoha.
It is completely different from the previous rebellious nature, and there is no room for redemption.
Gritting his teeth, Naruto loosened his clenched fist again, unable to persuade in vain: "Although I understand your feelings... But really, don't indulge in revenge anymore, it will ruin you!"
"You understand, but you still want to stop me?" Sasuke immediately sneered.
Naruto was silent, looking at Sasuke under the night, standing at the boundary between candlelight and darkness, the pale yellow light of the lantern entered his deep eyes little by little, gradually covering the original hostility.
"Sasuke, I never thought about it that way...I don't want to kill you to become a hero, but if you decide to attack Konoha, I have to fight you." Seriously looking into Sasuke's eyes, he realized that he Also be so calm.
Sasuke looked at Naruto's azure eyes that were slightly clouded by the mist, even in such a dark night, they still exuded an unusual light. say what?"
Naruto raised the corner of his mouth reluctantly: "I, I have known from before that we cannot understand each other in a normal way. If we want to understand each other with you, we can only rely on fists... But, you also foresee it, right? Now you and I are fighting, probably, we will all die," looked at him intently with a wry smile, as if to see more turmoil from those eyes that are not easy to make waves, "If we all die in the end, don't you It’s Uchiha, and I’m no longer Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, so I don’t have to bear anything... At that time, we can truly understand each other in that world.”
He was clearly talking about very sad things, but the smile still showed on his face. At the cost of dying together, he told Sasuke that he really understood the hatred, and there was really no other way but to make such a bad move to stay with him.
Sasuke looked at him mockingly: "I will not change my mind, let alone die, if you want to die, you die yourself."
The words are not speculative, so stalemate, in such an untimely scene tonight, however, it seems to be destined to be inevitable.
Involuntarily, Xiang Yin Mo looked at the young man next to him again, looked at his serious and determined eyes, and wondered if he really could only do this?Like an inextricable knot, entangled in the shackles called life.Because revenge is an obligation and an obsession, there is no way to choose an easy path.
