Ninja Ice House

Physical healing is an innate secret technique, which is difficult to control, but it is not impossible.

Today's Hongye can barely make the chakra that contains vitality flow out at a moderate speed.

In the past, passive output always had the phenomenon of ability overflow, and the recovery ability was too prominent.

As long as the output of physical healing can be controlled at the "emergency" level, it will undoubtedly save a lot of effort to rely on water escape, medical ninjutsu or even stimulate the wounded to heal themselves.

"It's hard to do that and it takes practice."

"What's the use of this? Obviously we can do better, why don't we go all out?"

Xianglin's question made Hongye explain with a gentle smile:

"For you and me, consuming a moderate amount of chakra and vitality is a kind of benign exercise, similar to running, swimming, rope skipping, and squatting. In severe cases, it may even be life-threatening. Putting aside the standpoint of self-consideration, isn’t overtreatment a good thing for the rescued?”

After a pause, Hongye said melancholy,

"My lord's consideration, there is always a reason. It's like having ten seriously injured companions in front of you. You can save five of them, restore your body to its best condition, and finally sit back and watch the other five die from their injuries, unable to do anything. , or just give first aid, save life, let others take care of, recover from injuries, but keep everyone alive?"

"Of course the latter?"

Xiang Rin replied naturally,

"Human life is at stake. If you die, you will be gone."

"But if we are on the battlefield and the enemy is pressing every step of the way, we must quickly recover the injuries of a few masters to protect everyone? At the cost of sacrificing five people, save five masters and repel the enemy, or save ten people at the same time? Possess complete combat power and be wiped out by the enemy?"

"This……"

Hongye touched the little head of Xianglin who was a little dazed, and said soothingly,

"Although it's still too early for you to think about it, you are likely to encounter such a choice in the future, because you have such an ability, as long as you don't hide it, someone will naturally rely on it in the future."

If the healing ability is too strong, it means a lot of consumption. The secret blood technique is indeed very useful. If you can't use it freely, there will be a lot of inconvenience.

"I understand."

No matter whether she really understands or pretends to understand, Hongye still embraces Xianglin's slightly thin body fondly,

"Other children of the same age are still enjoying a carefree childhood. You already have to think about your future. It's because your mother is not good enough to take good care of you."

"I feel very good and fulfilled. I have learned a lot, and I am very happy to get along with my classmates from Ninja School."

To show her persuasiveness, Xiang Rin clenched her small fist and said proudly,

"I'm the chief student."

"Well. Your talent is better than mine, but you have too little experience. The secret technique demonstration just now should be useful for you to develop new secret techniques and build your own ninjutsu system. Mother is just a half-baked person, and that's all she can help you with." .”

Physique is taught by a new teacher, water escape ninjutsu is also taught by Gushan Bushui, medical ninjutsu is a bit more troublesome, but you can also pay for tutoring, blood secret art can only be explored by the mother and daughter.

……

After the spring blossoms, Xiang Rin, accompanied by Hinode Togakushi, bid farewell to her family and went to Konoha Village again. The ninja school is about to start.

Hongye needs to stay in Inaba to deal with trivial matters. The Nursing Home has adopted many orphans in the past two years, and those poor children brought back from the Bear Country cannot be let go. She also needs to handle the connection with the medical ninjas of Konoha Village.

In addition, there are those survivors of the country of vortex, who also need Hongye's management.

Although the family gathers less and leaves more, it is much better than before. At least now, they can guarantee to have leisure time every year and get together for a while.

Gu Shan Bu Shui and his parents rushed to the capital of the Kingdom of Fire to discuss major issues.

The news that the daimyo was seriously ill and about to abdicate was not one or two people who knew about it.

Uncle and mother Princess Liuli said something to the bedridden daimyo in the inner room, while Gu Shan Bu Shui and his father Gu Shan Zhengcheng were waiting outside.

Counting the small holes on the tatami mat in boredom, the young governor moved his legs and feet that were a little numb after sitting on his knees for too long, and asked casually:

"Why didn't you see Liangshige and his mother?"

"It is said that we went to visit a famous doctor together and asked for a good medicine, which is considered a wise move..."

"What medicine can compare to the soup made from the blood of red leaves?"

The old father gave his only son a nonchalant glance:

"Even if it's true, you can't say that."

"My lord...that's an old age, many organs in the body are failing, and I don't know where to eat less. It's an inexplicable panacea, and it can last for two more years."

The effect of directly replenishing vitality is getting worse and worse, so it can be seen that there is really no way to recover.

To be honest, if it weren't for Hongye's sacrifice over the years, Daming would have gone to see Xianjun long ago.

"You, you are clever, but you still can't understand people's hearts, especially the thoughts of dying old people. You are not confused, don't you know that your time is approaching? Now that you have made the decision to pass the throne in advance and retire for retirement , I must know it well. At this time, it is not the time to consider facts and rationality. Even the care in the ceremony is more comforting than the cold truth. It is better to feel better, worry less, and not think about it blindly..."

"It's my fault."

After a little thought, Gu Shan Bu Shui understood the meaning of the old father's words.

Generally speaking, elderly parents are less able to face up to the wishes of their children who are close at hand and provide for them in the elderly. On the contrary, they will be more partial to children who are far away and just talk about their hearts from time to time.The filial piety that is close at hand cannot be felt, and it is not pleasing to the eye anyway, but the small favors and small benefits in the distance are kept in mind and never forget.

Is it caused by ignorance?

There are factors in this, but not all.

To put it bluntly, it is not worth mentioning, this is the human heart, and the distance creates a sense of expectation.

The more dying, the more need for psychological comfort.Like Gu Shan Bu Shui, thinking that he has a clear conscience after doing what he should do, he is actually being lazy.

"You are a smart child. You should also understand that the more rational and balanced you are, the farther away you are from humanity. A family like ours would have been indifferent due to various shocks. If there is no ritual harmony, it will be true. We're leaving."

"Well! But I don't feel so alienated."

"That's because the two generations of our family are very special. There is no family competition, and there are no differences in inheritance rights."

No one competed with Gu Shan Bu Shui for the position of Patriarch, and there was no big problem with the successor of the daimyo. For Gu Shan Bu Shui, that position has both advantages and disadvantages. It is both an authority and a cage.

Ascending to the throne of a daimyo, and then making drastic reforms, so that the productivity of the ninja world has increased rapidly, and becoming a holy king passed down to future generations is actually a bit boring.

Even without Gushan Bushui, the ninja world will still develop step by step, and the speed will be faster and faster. Without the "push hands" of the traversers, the speed will be slower at most, and the general direction will hardly change.

For example, Qianshou Feijian, Orochimaru, and Yaoshidou, etc., not only have their own talents, the ability to develop and improve various forbidden techniques, but also the general explosion after the foundation has accumulated to a certain level.

The daimyo is just a pig in the center of the tuyere, not the tuyere that blows the turmoil. For the ninja world, it is very important, but not indispensable.

In comparison, Naruto is more interesting, but...

It's a pity that I don't have a chance with Gu Shan Bu Shui.

The old father lowered his voice and said:

"Actually, when your uncle was young, he was obsessed with literature and art and couldn't extricate himself from it. He had no intention of inheriting the position of daimyo. His father-in-law once had the idea of ​​letting your mother succeed him, but... with the changes in the Gushan family, he had to inherit his position. The name of the family, let it go in the end."

"What do you want to say, I was only one thought away from the throne of the Land of Fire daimyo?"

Gu Shan Bu Shui shrugged, pretending to respond relaxedly,

"If you didn't have this crop, would you still marry me? When you can't say it, I will be gone."

There is a slight deviation, Princess Liuli's birth is not necessarily Gushan Bushui.

"I know that you don't think much of the position of a daimyo who can't be stretched, but don't show it in front of outsiders..."

"There are no outsiders here."

As he was speaking, Gu Shan Bu Shui had an idea, raised his head, seemed to see through the plain white wall, and cast it into the distance,

"Why are there so many loopholes in Miyagi's defense? Is it caused by too frequent mobilization..."

"Don't worry about that."

Gushan Zhengcheng had expected it long ago, and warned leisurely,

"Once something happens, you can protect Daimyo, your mother, uncle and Liangshige."

Glancing at his father's stern face, Gu Shan Bu Shui was a little relieved.

The serious old father is not a good man and a believer. He is really not good at ninjutsu, but he is really a terrible guy when it comes to ravaging people's hearts and playing tricks.

While the two were talking, Mrs. Shijimi walked over holding Mao Xiaohu, followed by Yoshige who was carrying a large bag.

……

In front of the daimyo's bed, Ryoshige tightly held his skinny palm covered with age spots, and talked very affectionately.The relationship between grandparents and grandchildren is really good.

Rather, the past ten years or so have been the most harmonious time for this intricate family, with few conflicts too big to be reconciled.

"If you still want me to live a few more years, let me retire smoothly. You don't have to worry about those trivial things that are difficult to deal with, but are actually useless..."

Sighing, the daimyo sat up and looked at Mrs. Shijimi who showed a perturbed expression.

This woman who gradually began to put on weight and did not have the grace of a nobleman was actually not the ideal choice for the wife of the crown prince. Helpless, the world is impermanent, and it is impossible to object to it today.

"Qingfu, I know that you don't want to inherit the position of daimyo, and you are not even satisfied with the name I gave you. You would rather give yourself a name you like, but there are some things you can't escape. If there is no daimyo family Given the conditions for you, how could you unscrupulously study piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, enjoy the wind, flowers, snow and moon, and make friends everywhere?"

Speaking of this, he seemed to be tired for a while, and after coughing a few times, the daimyo continued:

"You're not going to push your responsibility to Liangshige, are you?"

"I... don't want to do this, I'm afraid I can't do it well."

After a moment of silence, my uncle replied hesitantly,

"In a few more years, Liangshige will be more mature, and he will be able to take over the burden."

"Confused, because of your indecision, I don't know how many troubles will arise."

Daimyo suppressed the anger that was almost uncontrollable,

"Inheriting the position of a daimyo does not require you to be very wise and powerful, as long as you have a daimyo father. If you are really too smart, it will make people uneasy. Back then, I also took the position with trepidation, and I found out soon after, that's all." What happened..."

"Don't be so angry, calm down, I can't listen to you!"

After wiping his face with a wet towel to wake himself up, Daimyo waved his hand:

"Let the internal ministers come in and prepare to read the imperial edict. As for the other... Zhengcheng, you first serve as the right minister to deal with the aftermath, and then... I can't take care of it. You can discuss it."

The old father Gushan Zhengcheng hesitated for a while, but agreed.

The juncture of power transfer is the most dangerous.

It's not just Sentinel who is in trouble, there are so many things to deal with inside and outside.

In the end, the daimyo took a deep look at Fusugi Bosui who stood aside respectfully and said nothing.

"Qingfu and Liangzhong have half your talent and hard work, so I'm relieved. Alas... In short, this country is entrusted to you."

……

At the same time, outside the palace wall, Kazuma in military uniform took his son Kong's little hand and strolled forward.

"Father, this is where you work? That's very impressive."

"Want to go in and have a look? Unfortunately, today is not a visit day. When I have a chance, I will take you around..."

Yan Hu, who was walking towards him, saluted his boss familiarly. The several hideous scars on his body really shocked Kong. When he walked away, the child asked with lingering fear:

"Is this also a guardian ninja? It looks so fierce."

He Ma chuckled lightly and said:

"It's wrong to judge people by their appearance. Although Yanhu's behavior is a bit rude, he is still a good person."

『Unfortunately, it would be great if I could support him wholeheartedly. Obviously, I am very optimistic about him. 』

Today, there is a purpose in deliberately bringing my own son here.

After buying some fruit snacks for Sora, Kazuma smiled and said:

"You stay here for a while now. I still have something to do. Don't run around. If you are in danger, you must protect yourself."

"Okay, I'll wait for you, come back early."

During this period of time, the two of them didn't have much time to enjoy family happiness, but compared to being imprisoned in the Temple of Fire before, it was already a great happiness.

Such a day, Sora is very satisfied, and even thinks that it is good to continue like this. When he grows up and learns the skills well, he will join the guardian ninja, inherit his father's mantle, and contribute to the country and the daimyo.

A child's dream always comes out of nowhere, although it is difficult to last, at least it is unforgettable enough now.

Of course, when it is shattered, it will definitely make people feel heartbroken.
