After recruiting seven apprentices, Zhang Xuetao did not continue to accept apprentices. He took these seven apprentices to a deserted island far away from the mainland, and began to retreat to teach them and improve their strength.

At the same time, they continued to use words to seduce them, amplify their desires, and make their ambition to unify the continent stronger.

"Brother Yamutai, what do you think is the secret that the master said? What kind of secret can make people unify the mainland?" Kato Lan sat on the reef by the sea and asked the girl who was sitting next to him and was blowing the sea breeze. Yamutai.

Yamutai expressed his guess: "I don't know, but there are only a few, either a way to improve one's own strength, or a powerful weapon, but either one should not be easy to obtain."

"Otherwise, even the master is so powerful. He couldn't open this secret by himself. Instead, he taught us to teach us, and he wanted us to open it."

"By the way, Brother Yamutai, have you noticed something? Our master seems to like dragons! You also know that there is a portrait of a dragon on his fan, and that portrait is really lifelike." Kato Lan sighed. .

Yamutai frowned after listening to Kato Lan's words. He has also followed Zhang Xuetao for many years, but he has never seen Zhang Xuetao like dragons or collect dragon paintings before.

After thinking about it for a while, Yamutai thought to himself: Maybe it's the dragon that Master only fell in love with after we parted ways!
Yamutai said to Kato Lan: "Okay, okay, let's hurry to the master! Today's class is about to start."

The seven disciples gathered in front of Zhang Xuetao, and Zhang Xuetao started a new day of teaching.

These seven disciples fought against each other, and Zhang Xuetao pointed out the shortcomings in it, so that there would be fewer flaws in the battle among them.

After teaching them, according to the past, they should have left to move freely, but Zhang Xuetao didn't let them leave today.

Instead, he pointed to the dragon pattern on his fan and asked the seven disciples, "You all know this dragon."

One of the disciples quickly replied: "I know, it is said that it is a mythical beast, and it is a folklore."

Zhang Xuetao gently stroked the portrait of the dragon on the fan, as if he was touching some precious object, especially his gaze, which was full of longing and awe.

And all these were seen by the seven apprentices. They were a little puzzled in their hearts, and some felt that there seemed to be something special about this dragon, and it wasn't just because of their preferences.

At this time, while continuing to stroke the dragon-shaped painting on the fan, Zhang Xuetao said: "Dragon can be big or small, can rise or hide; big can make clouds and fog, and small can hide its shape; rising can soar above the universe." In the space, hidden is lurking in the waves."

After saying these few words, Zhang Xuetao stopped and didn't speak for a long time. After a long time, he sighed, raised his head and said to the seven apprentices: "You all go! Today's class is over."

The seven people left, but Zhang Xuetao's behavior did have some impact on the seven people, especially the few words about the dragon were imprinted in their hearts.

Five years passed in a hurry, and Zhang Xuetao had become even weaker, so weak that he was trembling even when he walked, and his body was about to reach its limit.

Over the past five years, you have rapidly improved the strength of these seven apprentices, especially Yamutai and Kato Ran, who have surpassed Jonin in strength.

On this day, the seven apprentices gathered in front of Zhang Xuetao again.

Zhang Xuetao lay on the chair, looked at the seven apprentices with his cloudy eyes, and after looking at them for a while, he said in his hoarse voice: "I have nothing to teach you. In the past few years, you have taught them all." Learn everything that should be learned, and what is needed next is your actual combat."

After saying these few words, Zhang Xuetao seemed to be tired because of his old age, and continued after a few tens of seconds of rest: "If you want to become a strong man, you have to go through a fight, a fight between life and death. "

Zhang Xuetao swallowed a few more mouthfuls of saliva, and continued after resting for tens of seconds: "I'm almost dying, I can feel that my end is approaching, I should also tell you, what you most want to know Something—the secret."

Gently turning his head, Zhang Xuetao looked at the sky, his eyes were a little divergent, as if he was recalling something.

And this is the hearts of these seven people. When they heard that Zhang Xuetao was going to tell this secret, they all became excited.

Especially someone thought in his heart: the old guy is finally going to die, and this secret is about to be revealed.

It's no wonder that these seven people have such thoughts. After all, they all have the idea of ​​doing something big, but they all gave up coming to Zhang Xuetao to learn ninjutsu and improve their strength.

How much have they given up? In the past five years, even if they don't improve their strength, they have all made a career.

If it weren't for the fact that there was a secret, a secret that could unify the continent, someone would have left long ago, but this secret was not revealed until five years ago.

Most of them have the feeling that they are finally coming out of it.

"Although my Hirano family is not well-known in the entire ninja world, its inheritance is definitely not weaker than any other big family. Including the famous Senju family and Uchiha family now."

"More than 1000 years ago, my family made a contract with a dragon."

As soon as Zhang Xuetao said this, the description Zhang Xuetao once said about the dragon instantly appeared in the minds of the seven people.It also emerged that Zhang Xuetao often stroked the dragon pattern.

The seven people looked at each other with shock in their eyes.

"Although we have reached a contract with the dragon, our family has never used the power of the dragon wantonly. Only when the family is dying, will we ask this person for help. So there is no record about our family in the ninja world. "

"200 years ago, this dragon was seriously injured in battle with other powerful creatures in other worlds, and finally died."

"But seven years ago, this dragon entrusted me with a dream. His soul has not yet died, and he still has a chance to be resurrected. As long as he can be resurrected, he promised to meet a condition for the person who resurrected him. He told I have a way to revive him, but I can't wait."

"Because our family lost the protection of the dragon, it gradually declined. In my generation, I was the only one left. And for some reasons, I couldn't reproduce."

At this time, Kato Lan asked: "Master, how do you know that this is not a bizarre dream of yours, but a dragon's entrusted dream."

At this time Zhang Xuetao smiled, he raised the fan in his hand and said, "Do you know the origin of this fan?"

All seven shook their heads, collectively waiting for Zhang Xuetao's next words.

"On the day of the dream, when I woke up, this fan was beside my bed. In this world, few people can come to me quietly. But I didn't notice it, Even if I'm sleeping."

When everyone heard Zhang Xuetao say that this fan suddenly appeared beside his bed, their whole body felt numb and trembling.

They all thought at the same time: Is what the master said true?It's so weird?
"Do you know why I have to accept seven apprentices?"

After Zhang Xuetao finished speaking, he stretched out his old hand, and slowly stretched his hand towards the surface of the fan. This time, instead of touching, he directly put his hand into the fan.When he stretched out his hand again, there was a dragon-shaped object in his hand.

There are seven shining crystals on the dragon's body. These crystals are not solid, but hollow.There is a green liquid inside, and a small piece of flesh is surrounded by the liquid.

Zhang Xuetao said to them: "Come up and take one each."

Kateng Lan held the crystal in her hand and asked suspiciously: "Master, could there be a dragon in it?"

Zhang Xuetao took Kato Lan's words and said: "Yes, it is the body of the dragon. The dragon has many abilities, one of which is the prediction of the future. He predicted that in the future, someone will develop a ninjutsu. This ninjutsu The name of the technique is Dirty Soil Reincarnation."

"This ninjutsu can summon the dragon to the present world, and the dragon has its own way to be resurrected. And the body of the dragon in the crystal in your hands is the medium for summoning him."

At this time, Yamutai asked: "Master, who is that person? How long is the future?"

Zhang Xuetao shook his head slowly and said: "I don't know, it should have been more than ten or twenty years. Long only told me this, and it should be that he only predicted this."

"What I should tell you, I have already told you, I have no future, and the future is in your hands."

"I have no one to continue the family inheritance. I didn't want to pay attention to this matter. After all, this dragon has protected our family for nearly a thousand years. If you have a chance to revive him, try it! At that time, he will satisfy one of your conditions."

After Zhang Xuetao finished speaking, these people disbanded.It's just that they gathered in other places behind Zhang Xuetao's back.

One of them asked: "Brothers, do you think what the master said is true?"

Another person replied: "I don't think it's a fake! What's more, the master is dying. As the old saying goes, when a person is about to die, his words are also good. He has no reason to lie to us! What's more, his We watched him touch the fan for five years. Brother Kato Lan, what do you think?"

Kato Lan frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly said: "The most important word in what the teacher said is resurrection. Do you think it is possible for the teacher to resurrect himself for us many years later?"

At this time, Yamutai shook his head and said his guess: "I don't think so. After all, there are prophecies about the future in what master master said. No matter how strong human beings are, they can predict future things. Although there is a It is said that the witch can predict. Then she can predict things for a day or two or ten days. Can the master predict decades later?"

One of them suddenly said: "Brothers, after all, this is decades later. We have a long time to verify the truth of the matter, don't we? Ladies and gentlemen, I think we should go our separate ways!"

Kato Lan looked at the five people leaving and said to Yamutai, "I'm leaving too, how about you?"

Yamutai turned his head to look at Zhang Xuetao's residence and said, "I don't plan to leave for the time being. I'm different from you, master. After all, I have been raising me since I was a child for so many years and I have to die for him!"
