[Naruto] Once in ten years (Orochimaru)
Chapter 41 41.
Not long after, Uchiha Sasuke trapped the jounin in the bushes not far away using genjutsu. After walking back here, he inadvertently glanced at the expressions of the three people and saw that the atmosphere was a bit strange. He was surprised that he had left like this just now. He knew what happened, but he didn't care about what would happen next, so he turned around and found a comfortable place to rest.
"Death...what..." Narita-kun was short of breath, but he still took a breath to make his voice as steady as possible: "Death and immortality are just...in your thoughts. I...of course I'm afraid of death, and I'm very afraid...but...if I can choose the way to die, I'm still...very happy." His eyes moved slightly, looking at Orochimaru, and the corners of his lips curled up to tease: "At least... I don’t have to suffer… in your hands… anymore.”
This man must be crazy. This was the first thought that crossed Qian Yehan's mind. However, since she had said so, there was no room for turning back. She knew that no matter who said anything, there was no way to change it. Her face froze, and she took a half step back. Her second thought was not sympathy, sadness, or desperate attempts to save him, but anger, uncontrollable anger from the bottom of her heart.
These days, she has been so dedicated to helping Narita-kun that she has even broken the survival principle that she has been able to live in for the past ten years. Although she does have sympathy for Narita-kun and knows Mochizuki Anzu, if it is just for these two reasons, she is I would never risk my life to help like this. Orochimaru was right when he said something before. If you want to listen to stories, his experimental subjects never lack stories. If she just talks about herself, is she any better than Narita-kun? The reason why she is so desperate is because she feels that she is very similar to Narita-kun. By helping the current Narita-kun, she is actually helping her future self. They are not ninjas, and they are all experimental subjects of the Corpse Vein. Although she is safe now. , but nothing is absolute. What if Orochimaru unfortunately discovers it later? Therefore, she sensed a sense of crisis by looking at others and herself, and she also wanted to find a viable path for herself in the future when she was at the end of her rope like Narita-kun.
But what about now? Narita-kun's self-destruction also cut off the way for her to find a way for her future self... just like... when she had used the most serious attitude in her life and risked her life to complete the task, she just felt that there was hope for success. The next moment, he was wiped on the neck by the enemy hiding in the dark. Reluctance and emptiness suddenly enveloped her. She gritted her teeth and felt her temples bulging fiercely. She could no longer care about this matter, and she did not dare to interfere with it anymore. I'm sorry Narita-kun, I'm sorry Xiaoxing, she... can't do anything.
When Orochimaru listened to Narita-kun's words, although his words were so disrespectful, he still stood there with a smile on his lips, which did not seem to affect his emotions at all. After finishing speaking, Orochimaru stepped forward, squatted in front of Narita-kun, formed a seal with his hands, and started to use palm senjutsu to treat Narita-kun.
When Orochimaru just moved, Chinohan thought he was going to kill Narita-kun, but then she saw such an incredible scene. She was stunned for a moment, and she was beyond shocked, but...there must be a monster when things go wrong, She quickly calmed down, thinking about the experimental subjects she had seen in the laboratory before, her eyes moved slightly, and she seemed to understand something. Based on this, at least Orochimaru would not let Narita-kun die before returning to the base. Dropped, but...it's hard to say after that.
"Sasuke." While he was thinking, he suddenly heard Orochimaru speak. Qianyehan raised his head subconsciously. Orochimaru had slowly stood up. When Sasuke walked up to him, he heard him say to Sasuke: "He can walk now. You Bring him back to the base and hand him over to Kabuto, instruct Kabuto to send him to the laboratory, check him from head to toe, and put the records on my desk."
Sasuke was slightly surprised: "Now?" Seeing Orochimaru nod, he added: "Is it just the two of us?"
"I still have something to do, you go back and give him to Kabuto first."
Sasuke took Narita-kun and left. Seeing that they were far away, Qian Yehan looked back. As soon as they left, she and Orochimaru were the only ones here. Orochimaru just said that there was something else, what was it?
"Lord Orochimaru, don't I have to go with them?"
Orochimaru raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "I stayed here because of you." His tone actually sounded good, as if the previous incident had not happened. He walked up to Qian Yehan and said, "Although the time has been advanced a bit, But it doesn’t matter, just continue Narita-kun’s unfinished work.”
Hearing this, Chinohan suddenly remembered that Orochimaru seemed to have said a few days ago that she would take over Narita-kun's work and collect experimental subjects on the last day, but now that something like this happened...
She pursed her lips, and after hesitating for a while, she slowly said hesitantly: "Aren't you... in a hurry to go back and deal with things?"
"Things have to be dealt with, but since it's already like this, it's useless to rush. Why don't we put it aside and do something meaningful first." Orochimaru turned around and raised his hand to signal Qianyehan to follow him, only to hear him continue. : "You were so protective of Narita-kun before, so you have nothing to say to me about today's matter."
Qian Yehan walked beside Orochimaru. After hearing this, he raised his head and looked at him sideways. He lowered his eyes for a while and said in a calm tone, even with a hint of indifference: "Narita-kun, since you have done such a thing and said such words, no matter what You deserve it no matter how you treat him, I have no other ideas."
Orochimaru chuckled lightly and actually took Qian Yehan's hand: "You are sensible, so tell me how I should deal with Narita-kun."
"I don't dare to speculate on your thoughts," Qian Yehan lowered his head, his eyes moving slightly. She didn't know why Orochimaru suddenly asked her such a question. She didn't dare to say anything casually. To put it lightly, Orochimaru might aggravate the situation. Maru's suspicion was serious, and he was afraid that Orochimaru would really kill Narita-kun.
"Before you..." Orochimaru squeezed Qianyehan's hand hard, his tone was calm, but there was a hint of imperceptible chill: "Do you really have no idea... about Narita-kun's thoughts?"
It seemed that the whole arm of the hand that was being grasped lost consciousness in the moment when Orochimaru finished speaking. Qian Yehan felt a thrill in his heart. He suddenly raised his head and saw Orochimaru turning his head slightly to look at her, his lips There was no smile, and her thin lips were tightly closed, which made her a little nervous. However, she was not silent for long. The next moment she said without hesitation: "I don't know, I just know that his health is getting worse." , I just sympathize with him, if my subordinates knew about it, I would never dare to hide it from you."
Their eyes met. She really didn't know anything about this matter. If she knew from the beginning that Narita-kun was going to die, why would she take such a risk to help him? Therefore, when she looked at Qianyehan, she felt unusually confident, and her eyelids twitched. Without blinking, he opened his eyes wide and stared intently at the pair of golden eyes that were so close. The walking speed of the two gradually slowed down until they finally stopped. Time passed by minute by second, but their movements still stayed in the same state as when they stopped. Their golden eyes were so deep that she couldn't understand what they meant. But he thought he was reasonable, so he didn't think anything else, and tried his best to make his expression more serious.
After a long stalemate, Orochimaru's expression seemed unchanged, but Qianyehan felt that she was about to reach her limit. Her lips twitched a few times. She was about to say something, but she suddenly saw the eternal eyes from the opposite side. The smile that flashed in an instant and the solemn expression were immediately broken. She blinked in surprise, thinking that she had seen it wrong. She looked at it again and saw that the other person's tight thin lips slowly relaxed. A faint smile overflowed from his corner.
"What to eat for lunch."
"Ah...ah?" The sudden words made Qian Yehan stunned for a moment. She looked at Orochimaru strangely. Didn't this topic change too quickly? Where and where?
"what did you say?"
Orochimaru's smile deepened: "Since we have something else to do in the afternoon, let's eat whatever we want outside at noon."
Qian Yehan followed Orochimaru to a town not far away. The town was not big, and there were not many people and shops on the road. The two came to a small restaurant on the street. After sitting down, Orochimaru took the menu and looked at it. .
The table in Sifang was not big. Chinohan sat opposite Orochimaru, holding her chin, feeling a little incredible about what was happening in front of her. In her memory, the last and only time she went out to a restaurant was when her brother was admitted to the exam when she was eight years old. When she was at the ninja school in Konoha Village, the deliciousness of that meal was still fresh in her memory. At that time, the four of them sat at the table where she is sitting now, with each person on one side and four people surrounding each other. She and her brother both like seafood, but can hardly eat it on weekdays, so they almost got into a fight over the last braised prawn. Now that I think about it, time flies really fast. Twelve years have passed before I knew it. What's even more incredible is that today, twelve years later, she will go out to a restaurant for the second time with Orochimaru.
Qian Yehan glanced at the menu in Orochimaru's hand. Not only were the characters on it very small, but it was also upside down from her point of view, so she couldn't see anything at all, so she curled her lips and gave up on the menu. She sighed quietly, wondering if her brother had successfully graduated from the ninja school and had become an outstanding ninja? I heard from my brother that Konoha Village is a peace-loving village, and I must be very happy to live there, but... ninja... is not a stable profession after all. I only hope that my brother can protect himself, his parents well, and become a Chinese What about being a jounin? It just increases the risk of death.
"What to eat."
"Braised prawns." Still immersed in the memories of the past, Qianye Hanfang suddenly woke up after more than ten seconds after finishing her words. Thinking about what she had just subconsciously said, she nervously looked up at the big snake. Maru, knowing that what he said just now was indeed a bit abrupt, but he opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to explain it.
Orochimaru smiled softly, held his chin, and checked the menu with his pen: "I forgot who said before that you like to eat seafood. It seems that it is true."
Qian Yehan smiled awkwardly: "Lord Orochimaru, just order what you like. All subordinates you like will like it."
"Really?" Orochimaru checked the menu a few more times and handed it to the waiter. He said to Qian Yehan with a smile on his lips: "Then do you know what I like?"
Stunned by this question, Qian Yehan frowned and looked like she was thinking: "Eggs...and..." She remembered that when delivering meals to Orochimaru, eggs appeared the most.
"It's not about food." Orochimaru's lips seemed to curl up a little more: "Do you know what I like?"
Hearing this, Qian Yehan took a breath and slowly looked away. She wanted to say murder, but she knew Orochimaru would not like such an answer. She was silent for a long time. If she thought about it from his perspective, Orochimaru had been doing various things. What's the purpose of this experiment? Oh, yes, he once said it was to resurrect his parents, but...when he finished, he gave up again. What after giving up? Why did he do so much research? What did he want to get? She subconsciously looked at the person opposite, who was drinking tea by himself, but kept looking at her, as if waiting for her reply.
Qian Yehan sighed inwardly and expressed his thoughts: "At first, I thought that you changed your body and studied strange ninjutsu for immortality, but when you think about it more... it's actually not quite the same. You seem to be looking for What are you looking for? Eternal life is just one of the steps towards this goal, but...as for what it is...I don’t know, so...I’m very sorry, I don’t know what you like."
Just as he was talking, the waiter placed dishes on the table with plates, braised prawns, steamed sea bass, popcorn clams with sauce, barbecued squid tentacles, seafood porridge, all of them were... Qian Yehan's eyes followed the waiter. Natoki's hands moved back and forth, and something clicked in her mind. She didn't know what it felt like. She seemed a little happy, but also wanted to cry. Her nose was sore. She really wanted to let the tears flow down, but she didn't want to do it because Orochimaru was right across the way. If he made any drastic move, he would suppress his surging heart and quietly wait for Orochimaru's next move.
"It's just a plate of shrimps, is that all?" Orochimaru had already seen Qianyehan's sudden excitement, and the way he tried to endure it afterwards was also very interesting. He casually picked up a shrimp and put it into Qianyehan's bowl, thinking for a moment. Then he said: "The fact that you can think of this is a bit beyond my expectation. Anyway, since I have said it here, I will tell you. What I like is the process of pursuing the truth. Since it is a process, then There are wins and losses, whether it is success or failure, I am very happy in it. In fact, my mood will not get worse when I fail, because it will eliminate a wrong option for me and bring me closer to success. Go further." He shook the tea cup, and the tea swirled in the cup with a few tea foam: "Ah...what happened today, Narita-kun made my experiment take another step forward, I am very happy. "
Qian Yehan could faintly see the light of excitement in Orochimaru's eyes. The news she received all of a sudden shocked her. She looked at Orochimaru blankly, and she seemed to understand all of a sudden, and what kind of person Orochimaru was. , understanding his past behaviors, it is undeniable that she actually likes this kind of person... But at the same time, she also began to understand that this person is like a ball of fire, so dazzling from a distance, It may even bring a trace of warmth inadvertently, but if you try to get close to him, he will disappear like a moth...
