Start with parsing the wood escape

Chapter 5
The so-called heard, that is already affirmed.

Cold sweat broke out from Kotaro's forehead, he was stunned, and invisible fear enveloped his whole body, making him speechless for a while.

He should have known that in Yuyin Village, nothing could escape the leader's eye, and he was discovered.

"What are you nervous about?"

Sansho Hanzo came in front of him, stared at his stiff face, and his voice was flat.

Kotaro wanted to kneel down and spare his life, but because of his nervousness, he couldn't do it.Facing the opponent head-on, the huge pressure made him weak all over.

"As your leader, am I that kind of stingy person?"

Sanshoyu Hanzo spoke again, with a hint of a smile in his voice, as if expressing his kindness.

Kotaro was taken aback, he was inexplicably relieved, and then shook his head violently: "Oh, my lord, yes, of course not!"

"It is a good thing to pass on the method of becoming a ninja to talented people in the village."

"Isn't it?"

Sanshoyu Hanzo asked back, staring at Kotarou with a pair of eyes, but what the latter saw was only coldness.

"Yes!"

He lowered his head, his body trembling slightly.

"I also believe that Kotaro, if you can teach the chakra refining method to that commoner, then he must be a very talented person, right?"

The successive questions made Kotaro's mind go blank, and he could only respond numbly.

"Yes, he is very talented and will definitely become a great ninja in Yuyin Village."

Sanshoyu Hanzo suddenly laughed when he heard the words.

"Hahahaha, very good, I look forward to his future and his outstanding performance on the battlefield."

After finishing speaking, he turned around abruptly and left.

After a long while, Kotaro still stood frozen in place until his companion woke him up.

"You are so lucky, Lord Hanzo, to acquiesce in your actions."

Kotaro's scalp was numb, and he swallowed his saliva. Only he knew that the other party never forgave him, and the moment he finally left, the cold words only echoed in his ears.

There are only four words, but they are extremely cold.

"It's not an example!"

He was indeed lucky enough to survive this catastrophe, but in the future, he may have countless small shoes to wear, and his fate will be ill-fated.

When the crowd dispersed in twos and threes, a masked ninja came to Kotaro again.

Kotaro tensed up, and he recognized that the other party was a member of the guard next to Lord Hanzo.

"Kotaro, Lord Hanzo has something for me to pass on to you."

"Please say!"

Kotaro said immediately.

"Since you taught that person how to become a ninja, then he should also be a ninja. Tomorrow's memorial ceremony, bring him with you!"

The masked ninja narrated Hanzo's words mechanically, even the expression in his eyes became cold.

Kotaro wanted to scold the other party for being stupid, but he didn't dare, so he could only nod in agreement.

"I will definitely bring him here."

In the blink of an eye again, the masked ninja disappeared.

Kotaro just let out a breath at this time, his whole body felt relaxed, but soon, his expression became helpless again.

"As I said, brother Ise, becoming a ninja may be more dangerous."

"What's more, your current strength is probably no different from that of ordinary people."

That afternoon, Ise met Kotaro.

Seeing the helplessness and worry on the other side's face, he sat in front of him and sighed.

"I'm sorry to involve you in this war. You shouldn't be involved in this kind of thing."

"I really shouldn't give you the method of chakra cultivation."

With a smile on his face, Ise poured a glass of water for the other party: "The leader can acquiesce and agree to this matter, you and I should be grateful."

"As for getting involved in the war."

After a pause, Ise's expression became serious.

"When the war started, no matter whether it was a ninja or a civilian, it was already unavoidable, wasn't it?"

Kotaro froze for a moment: "Maybe you are right, but I'm still sorry."

"I'm not sorry. I just started practicing Chakra. With my aptitude, I'm afraid I won't be able to achieve any effect for a long time."

"With my combat strength, the village wouldn't just let me go to the battlefield to die like that?"

Ise laughed.

Kotaro opened his mouth, feeling a little ashamed, but he responded to Master Hanzo, who has the talent to become a ninja.According to what he said, combined with the current situation in the village, Ise would have to be sent to the battlefield in three months at the latest.

"Master Hanzo said, let you go to the village tomorrow to participate in the sacrificial ceremony. You have obtained the Chakra cultivation method, and you are also qualified for this."

Finally, Kotaro left.

Ise didn't care about this, he didn't know how much time he had left, and when he was able to go to the battlefield, he didn't know if he was still alive.

As for a person like Hanzo, he doesn't care about such a small person at all.

That is to say, apart from the fact that he has entered Hanzo's eyes, his life has no impact, and he still has to do what to do.

In the early morning of the second day, in Yuyin Village, there was a piece of flat land covered with green grass.

One after another silhouettes came here silently, holding white paper flowers in their hands, standing there quietly, staring at the square black dots in front of them.

Each square black dot represents a lost human life.Of course, these people are ninjas who died on the battlefield. Ordinary civilians died, and they are not even qualified to leave their names. It is even more impossible to have a burial place.

"Ise, here."

As soon as Ise came here, Kotaro greeted him in a low voice.

"Have you started yet?"

Lowering his voice, Ise blended into the crowd, came to Kotarou's side, and asked softly.

"Not yet, but soon."

Kotaro said, with a heavy expression on his face.

Being in this kind of occasion, being infected by the atmosphere, it is natural not to be happy.

Ise didn't speak any more. He looked over the crowd and saw densely packed black dot squares arranged in steps in front of him, and his pupils shrank.

There was no end to be seen at a glance, dead silence, a low breath permeated, and the rain in the sky became quiet at this moment.

Each black dot represents a dead life.

Ise froze there, this was the first time he deeply felt the coldness, indifference and cruel reality of this world.

He faced the death of war head on!
They were all new graves, and he couldn't even estimate how many there were.And these are all ninjas, and the death toll of civilians is even more impossible to count.

War is a meat grinder!
These words echoed in Ise's ears, making him clenched his fists.

"The corpses of many people were left on the battlefield and could not be found."

In the ear, Kotaro's whisper sounded.

"It's a heavy heart, right? But war is like this, so you have to relax, because no one knows if they will be the next person lying here."

"Or maybe, the corpse was buried in the front line, and he lost the qualification to return to his hometown forever."
