Ninja Ice House

The winter of Konoha's 62 was indeed very unusual.

The weather is not only cold, but also more rain and snow will freeze more pests to death, making people have more expectations for the harvest in the coming year.

For families with elderly people, it is more difficult.

The physical condition of the boss once affected the hearts of many people.

Only an energetic child like Xiao Hiiragi would be particularly happy.

In and around Miyagi, her "masterpieces" are left in many places.

Some weird snowmen and piled up strange houses are scattered everywhere in the vicinity.

It is indeed rare for Yuqi Island to have such a heavy snowfall. Xiao Hiiragi did not waste time at all, let Xianglin take it with her, and together with her two little sisters, went out to play in the snow, and even wanted to take Ikki who was not stable when walking. Go out with Chinatown.

After all, it made her give up.

"The snow is almost up to her knees, so it's not too hard."

I don't know which wise man gave her the idea. She dismantled the wooden stool and built a simple sled. Then, the majestic Sesshoumaru and Youmenaru led Chitong, Qingbei and Heowei to make a temporary cameo appearance. He took a sled dog and pulled the three little guys and ran wildly.

"Sister, sister, you can try to sit on it too, it's very interesting."

Xiao Hiiragi waved again and again, Xianglin smiled and shook her head.

"Everyone sit up, Sesshomaru and Kyomaru have worked too hard, so we shouldn't be too tired."

"Oh!"

After thinking about it, Xiao Hiiragi felt that it made sense, and pulled the reins that controlled the direction and speed.

"Sister, why can you run so fast in the snow without sinking in, and your footprints are so shallow?"

"The power of ninjutsu! I'll teach you when you get older!"

"it is good!"

With the breadth of knowledge, it is difficult for Xiao Hiiragi to have a long-term interest in ordinary things.

My sister has a lot of mysteries, especially all kinds of magical ninjutsu, which has long been itchy.

"Slow down, don't fall again."

Little Hiiragi, who doesn't know the danger at all, keeps controlling the "sled dog" to accelerate. Xiao Jing and Xiao Si are already a little scared, hugging each other and trembling, only Xiao Hiiragi is still laughing "crazyly", trying to speed up .

Xiang Rin, who secretly ordered her combat partners to "take it easy", followed behind unhurriedly.

In the forbidden area of ​​the palace, it is difficult for ordinary people to enter, there are guards patrolling everywhere, probably only Xiao Zhong and the others dare to "drive the car" here.

After sitting in the sleigh and "inspecting" the snowman and "palace" he created, Xiao Hiiragi was ready to return contentedly.

"It's almost time for dinner, don't keep mother waiting."

"it is good!"

It may not work to say anything else, but when it comes to eating, Xiao Hiiragi will never miss it.

Let Sesshomaru and Eyomaru carry the somewhat tired Xiaojing and Xiaosi on their backs, while Xianglin carried Xiaohiiragi on her back, carried the sleigh cart, and crossed a long distance after a few vertical jumps.

Ten minutes later, Xiao Hiiragi, who came home very quickly, took off his snow-stained coat, and accepted his mother's lesson with a low eyebrow.

It was fine when I went out, but when I came back, the inner clothes were soaked with sweat, and the outer clothes were soaked by melting snow. For such a small child, if there is a little cold wind, the cold will not be cured.

"Mother, my sister can run on the snow without sinking, can you?"

"I haven't tried it, it should work!"

"Then... can father?"

"Well! Not only in the snow, but also in the water without sinking!"

"Is it like a big ship?"

"It's more convenient than that!"

"I also want!"

"Not yet, you are too young, if you exercise too early, you may not grow taller."

"can you?"

"My sister also started to practice after she was five years old!"

"Then... just wait another year!"

"You, can't wait any longer?"

"I'm almost grown up, even a red boy can eat bones and flesh."

"Okay, okay! If you talk to your father more, maybe your heart will soften."

"Um!"

Speaking of his father, Xiao Hiiragi raised his head and looked outside suspiciously.

"Father hasn't come back yet."

"Adults have their business! Your father is very busy and won't be back for a while..."

"National affairs?"

"Who taught you these words! A young adult, I want to understand everything!"

Xiao Hiiragi puffed out her chest in dissatisfaction.

"I'm not that young!"

I have already played Yuqi Island and Inaba Country, and there are too few children around me who play with me. Occasionally, when my peers see me, I am terribly afraid, it is too boring.

Miyagi's side is actually quite dull. When I first came here, I just wanted something new. After a long time, I feel a little tired.

As children grow up, their curiosity about the outside world becomes stronger, and at the same time, they also begin to have social needs.

Friends, like-minded partners, and childhood sweethearts who grew up together.

All of these are available.

"I didn't see Chinatsu and Ikki today, where did they go?"

"It's not for fun, I was taken by my parents to visit friends. And..."

Hongye couldn't help covering her mouth and snickering,

"In your identities, you should actually be called Uncle Ikki and Aunt Qianxia..."

"Eh?"

This time, not only Xiao Hiiragi, but even Xiang Rin, who was casually on the side, was stunned.

"Are those two kids so senior?"

"Your mother and I had you in my early twenties, Qianxia's father, but I had my first child in my 40s! What do you think?"

"That's true!"

After thinking about it for a while, Xiang Rin also recalled it.

If it is normal to have children in their 20s, Qianxia and Ikki are almost 20 years old, and it is not so abrupt to call them uncle or aunt.

However, a child who is two years old and still a few months away is his elder, isn't it too exaggerated?

"Our relatives are all very strange and very few."

Facing the eldest daughter's complaint, Hongye couldn't help explaining:

"It's not a matter of being few, but the only ones who are really close are Qianxia and his family."

If you count the miscellaneous distant relatives, and the descendants of the illegitimate children of the ancestors who have little contact with each other, there are actually quite a few who can relate to each other.

However, there are only a few relatives recognized by the daimyo and the Gusugi family.

Recognizing relatives is actually a very troublesome matter, which means changes in titles and fiefdoms.

For example, Gui Zhiji will inherit the prince of "Gui Palace" in the future. If the Gu Shan family's lineage becomes extinct, the daimyo does not intend to adopt his own descendants. If he inherits the name of Gu Shan's family, the direct descendants of "Gui Palace" are eligible to inherit Gushan family business.

The daimyo and the Gushan family are in the same spirit, which means that they take care of each other, if they really can't take care of each other, they have to be replaced by a second-class noble relative.

Generally speaking, it won't happen that Daimyo and Gushan have heirs at the same time who are difficult and unsustainable, but what if?

Acknowledging that they are relatives not only divides the family property, but actually arranges the line of succession for them.

This is much more important than a mere fiefdom and soft gold and silver.

Why was it so difficult for Hongye to be recognized in the past?

This is actually Karin, Kohiiragi and others jumping in the line of succession.

People with identities like Hongye and their children mostly arranged a marriage after they grew up, bestowed Miao characters, and gave them some fiefdom or family property, and they were dismissed. Few even won the title of Prince, let alone became the main branch of the direct line.

Of course, with Xiao Hiiragi's small mind, he definitely can't figure out these troublesome things, and Xiang Rin also has a half-knowledge, but she is more and more interested in Qianxia, ​​Ikki and their parents' identities.

-----------------

At the same time, in a mysterious place in the palace, Gu Shan Bushui, wearing a light blue surgical suit, took off his plastic gloves and mask, and pushed open the door of the operating room.

"how is the situation?"

Uncle Qingfu and his mother, Princess Liuli, greeted him and asked eagerly.

"very smooth!"

"Thank goodness!"

The slightly more reserved Gushan Zhengcheng, Liangzhong, Gui Zhiji and others also let out a long sigh of relief.

"Can I go in now?"

Gu Shan Bu Shui gently shook his head:

"Now he is in anesthesia coma. He has been a respectable old man all his life. He probably doesn't want to be seen by everyone."

It doesn't matter that Gushan Bushui himself is the "physician" who performs the operation. For others, it's better to take it easy.

"How long until you wake up?"

"According to the efficacy of the medicine, it actually took less than an hour. However, the old man has lost a lot of his body. It may take two hours."

"That's good! Two hours, not long! Thanks for your hard work, Bu Shui..."

While Uncle Qingfu was happy, his nervous state of mind passed, and he vented a lot of energy in his body, and sat down on the soft bed.

Gu Shan Bu Shui said with a smile:

"You've been waiting for so long, and you're tired, so take a break. Now... it's almost dinner time, let someone bring some refreshments over."

The little cousin Liangzhong who reacted hurriedly went to make arrangements.

Gu Shan Bu Shui turned back to deal with the operating room.

Some bloody things are not suitable for ordinary people to see.

In fact, with the support of the secret art of blood and physical healing, Gu Shan Bu Shui was able to recover the boss at a super fast speed.

It's just that, after all, it's an old man who has run out of fuel and can't make up for it. If something goes wrong, it's hard to deal with it.

The ancient Shanbu water diluted the blood potion a lot, and then used it slowly to give his body a buffer.

Two hours to recover, there should be no problem.

Sure enough, after two hours, the boss woke up on time.

"Am... am I okay?"

The eldest son, who was a bit awkward in speaking, opened his eyes and saw the calm-looking grandson, and asked involuntarily.

"You still have many years before you can slowly appreciate the beauty of this world."

"Really!"

Before that, I imagined my own reaction at this time more than once.

surprise?

Kind of!

But not that strong.

After passing through "death", I didn't feel more afraid of death, or especially ignored the idea of ​​life and death, but, compared with before, I was indeed less persistent.

After asking the attendants to help arrange the clothes and appearance, Gu Shan Bu Shui pushed the boss out of the operating room in a wheelchair, and the relatives who had been waiting for a long time couldn't help crying with joy.

"Okay, okay, am I okay? Seeing that you are eating well, give me some, I'm starving."

Gu Shan Bu Shui stepped forward, looked at the things brought up, and picked some relatively light soup and snacks.

"For the time being, you should eat less heavy oil and high-sugar foods. Your digestive system is still very fragile, and it will take some time to adjust."

"understood!"

Compared with the possible death threats, it's just that there are more taboos on eating, which is really not worth mentioning.

It's getting late, everyone had a conversation and then dispersed.

After the peaceful New Year's Eve passed, on the morning of Zhengdan, the daimyo, together with a large number of noble ministers, received everyone's worship in the main hall, then received envoys from various countries, received congratulatory gifts, and sent rewards.

After the solemn and solemn ceremony, the new year begins, and some troublesome things have to be arranged.

Gushan Bushui has never been involved in the specific affairs of the country. After finding an excuse to leave, he and Hai Xing, the representative of the country of the sea who came all the way, and Hanzaki from Hoshino Village brought his compatriots to visit.

This

When Xianglin saw her childhood playmates Kageno and Sasame whom she hadn't seen for a long time, she couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"My sister's friend?"

Xiao Hiiragi looked at the somewhat shy Sasame and the cold Kageno very curiously. They were not maids like Yuhuo, nor were they children of retainers, but came from outside.

Except for the classmates of Konoha Ninja School, Xiao Hiiragi rarely sees Kaoru playing with her peers.

The sudden appearance of two childhood sweethearts is really surprising.

Sasame was a little embarrassed by Xiao Hiiragi's hot observation, and Kageno, who seemed to be difficult to get along with, squatted down, held Xiao Hiiragi's hand, and looked at him curiously.

"It's very similar to Xianglin when she was a child, except...it's obviously much more lively."

As an older sister, Xianglin's cautious personality has not been completely eliminated even now, Xiao Hiiragi no longer has that concern, she grew up with a golden key in her mouth since she was a child, and she is the top lady in the tolerance world.

Coupled with his outgoing personality, it's normal to be different from Xiang Rin.

"Kageno-san, are you a ninja?"

"Yup!"

"Your forehead is a little different."

"The ninjas you've seen are all ninjas from Konoha Village, and I'm a ninja from Star Ninja Village."

"Star Ninja Village?"

"It's far away from here in the south. It's much smaller than Konoha Village, but the people inside are very kind."

"South side!"

Xiao Hiiragi couldn't help yearning for it.

Growing up so big, Xiao Hiiragi has stayed in places other than Yuki Island, Inaba Port, Konoha Village and Miyagi, and also saw some different scenery on boats and carriages.

"Xiao Hiiragi, will you become a ninja in the future?"

"I haven't figured it out yet, but ninjutsu is very interesting, and I want to learn it."

If I want to be a ninja, I have to go to school every day. My sister is very hard, and she is away from home for most of the year.

School, what a bad place.

In Xiao Hiiragi's small heart, he really thinks that as long as he doesn't become a ninja, he doesn't have to go to school and can go out to play every day.

Xiang Rin, who knew her sister's thoughts well, did not expose Xiao Hiiragi's unrealistic fantasy, but said to the friend who had been greeting her for a long time:

"You are all Chunin!"

"The Chunin in Hoshino Village is a little easier than Konoha Village."

"That's amazing! You guys are not much older than me, and I'm still a student..."

What Xianglin envied was not their Chunin status, but that they could arrange their lives more freely.

To be a ninja, to a certain extent, would be considered an adult.
