Ordinary People's Guide to Survival

"Great Elder, don't do it!" Hyuga Hyuzu hurriedly stopped, and at the same time signaled Ningji to give in quickly.

"You are not allowed to intercede for him!" Before the first elder could speak, the irritable second elder jumped out first, "As the patriarch, Ri Zuo, you should put the family first, and it has crossed the line to bring this kid by your side and train him carefully. , now that he has committed a felony, is it possible that you still want to cover him up?"

"But..." Caught between family and affection, the elder and nephew hesitated day by day, with repeated expressions on their faces.

"Nichizuki, we know that you are ashamed of Nishizai, so we turned a blind eye to what happened before and closed our eyes as if we didn't see it, but this time is different. You can't understand that Neji's actions will bring harm to the entire Hinata family. What kind of consequences will come."

"There must be a limit to everything. You have been the patriarch for so many years. I don't need to teach you what to do and what not to do."

The Great Elder's expression was flat, and his tone was also very flat, but he managed to prevent Hinata Hyuzu from speaking next.

Hinata Hyuzu looked at Neji dejectedly, hoping that the other party would be flexible and submissive, and the punishment would be lighter.

Unexpectedly, in exchange for the white-eyed boy chuckled.

The chuckle meant nothing, but he wanted to laugh, so he laughed.

In such a dignified atmosphere, such an inappropriate laugh successfully attracted everyone's attention.

The Great Elder frowned slightly, and there was annoyance in his expression that was similar to the unexpected situation that disrupted the original plan.

The third elder scolded: "What are you laughing at? You have no elders, you are arrogant, this is what you learned in Daming Mansion!"

What is he laughing at?

Of course, he laughed at the familiar yet absurd scene in front of him.

The elders reprimanded him, and the patriarch defended him. One side used force to force him to submit, while the other tried to use family affection to soften him.

What a familiar scene, isn't this the usual tactic at the negotiating table, one making a bad face and the other a bad face, alternating soft and hard after several rounds can always break through the opponent's psychological defense.

This is his most commonly used method, but now it is used on himself, how can we not make him laugh?

If it was the former self, I am afraid that he has already compromised with gratitude to the patriarch at this time.

Ningji Hinata knew in his heart that the patriarch's intercession for him was not necessarily out of interest considerations, and there should be some sincerity in it, but I'm sorry, I have seen a wider landscape and received more sincere treatment. Combined punches are really useless to him now.

The white-eyed young man sipped the hot tea in his cup, his expression covered by the mist.

It wasn't until he put down his teacup that he replied in a leisurely manner: "I learned it in the Daming Mansion, and you have noticed it in the past two years, but..."

He glanced at everyone in the room, his expression was indifferent, and he didn't have the anger and anger that should appear after being slandered by a boy of this age, "However, my client is sitting here, and all of you are discussing my fate like no one else. It's not appropriate."

"The Hyuga family gave birth to you, and the Hyuga family raised you. If you want to rebel against the family now, you will naturally have to pay the price. Young people, you can't be too greedy!"

Are you greedy?

Neiji Hinata repeatedly chewed on this word, and suddenly lost all interest in this family that had rotted from the root and naturally controlled the fate of the clan.

He smiled ambiguously, and didn't intend to waste any more time with these people, "It seems that you are ready to be questioned by the daimyo when you deal with the high-level officials of the Fire Nation at will."

The words hit the nail on the head, and the room was filled with silence.

Hinata Neji directly hit the minds of the elders.

Yes, if it wasn't for worrying about being troubled by the daimyo afterwards, when Hinata Neji broke the seal of the bird in a cage, he would have been dealt with by the family without anyone noticing.

The reason why he had the opportunity to sit here and drink tea was because the elders had some scruples.

His mind was guessed by a junior, and the second elder became angry from embarrassment. He almost jumped up and pointed at the white-eyed boy's nose and scolded, "Don't be too arrogant! You think you can do whatever you want with the backing of a daimyo. How can a daimyo manage the world and manage other people's internal affairs? "

Neji Hyuga leaned back to avoid the thick finger that almost poked the tip of his nose, only absurd and funny in his heart.

What is arrogance.

What is doing whatever you want.

Neji Hyuga obviously possesses excellent talent, but because of his status as a separate family, he was unable to learn the true secret ninjutsu of the Hyuga family;

He was obviously a hundred times more powerful than Miss Zong's family, but he was warned by Zong's family just because he didn't hold back during the competition;

He was dissatisfied with the family's arbitrary manipulation of his father's life and death, and he was tortured to death by the bird-in-a-cage curse mark when he showed a little resentment on his face...

He just wanted to control his own destiny, just wanted to breathe the free air that people were born with, and was dismissed as wolfish ambition by these superior controllers.

Could it be that, as his father's son, he deserves to be manipulated by these people all his life, and he deserves to be controlled by himself from life to death!

"You're right, I'm arrogant." Hinata Ningji's lips curled up in a mocking arc, "I'm not only supported by Hoshimi-sama, but also Hokage-sama, as well as the first generation, the second generation, and... "Paused, "Master Madara."

He paused every time he said a name, and waited for the others to digest the information before he said the next name calmly. Saw a flash of panic.

Sure enough, it's cool to take advantage of the situation, and it's always cool to take advantage of the situation.

After admiring the whole process of the orange-peeled old face changing color, he spoke again, "I think, since you all let me sit here, it's not for a few innocuous threats, it's better to talk about something practical."

"you!"

The elders originally planned to give Ning Ci a bad blow first, and wait for the other party to give in before negotiating terms, but they didn't expect that the other party would not be moved at all, and their own thoughts could be seen clearly.

Thinking of Ning Ci watching them perform with the eyes of watching a monkey show just now, the faces of the few people who maintained their status were not good-looking for a while.

Ningji Hyuga didn't care about other people's faces, and said to himself: "The reason why the Hyuga family has separated into a clan and a branch is because only in times of war can the continuation of the family be preserved, but now the world is becoming more peaceful and stable, and the society of ninjas The status has improved a lot, and even without relying on the family, the ninja can live well alone. Without external pressure, the so-called caged bird has changed from a sharp weapon to continue bloodlines to a murderous weapon to oppress clansmen to satisfy selfish desires."

"I think there should be quite a few people who have rebelled against the clan in recent years."

Hyuga's high-level expressions froze.

Neiji Hyuga was right. In recent years, people who have separated from their families have been acting more and more out of control. Once they find that someone is out of control, they will immediately deal with them secretly to avoid greater riots.

The most secret matter of the family was told lightly by the other party's light cat, and the high-level executives looked at each other in blank dismay, their attitudes unconsciously changed from the arrogance at the beginning to embarrassment.

Since then, the role has changed, the boy who was slaughtered by others has become a hunter, and the superior who seems to have the initiative has become stern.

After being silent for a while, Hinata Hinata took a deep breath, and finally couldn't hide the look of depression and fatigue on his face, "You're right." If there was no support from Daimyo and others, Neji would have become one of those people.

"So, since you have something to rely on, why are you talking so much nonsense to us here? Tell us your real purpose."

Hinata Hinata's eyes were sharp, and after shedding the layer of warmth, he showed the vigor and acumen that a patriarch of a big clan who has weathered the storm and pushed his family to the top should have.

The person sitting opposite him was no longer his nephew, but an equal and equal opponent.

That's right.

Ningji Hyuga did not evade, looked straight into the eyes of the other party, and said the real purpose of his trip, "I hope you can abolish the clan system."

"no!"

"Damn boy, do you know what you're talking about?"

"How dare you make such an unreasonable request, you daring fellow. You are too much of a bully, too much of a bully!"

"..."

Hinata Ningji directly stabbed the hornet's nest with one sentence, and the elders looked at him with cruel and cold eyes, as if they were going to swallow him alive in the next moment.

Neiji Hyuga suspected that if the other party hadn't had any scruples, he might have been killed on the spot when he just said that sentence.

However, no matter how loudly the elders quarreled, Hinata Hinata's eyes made everyone shut up.

Noticing this intriguing scene, Hinata Neji couldn't help lowering his eyelids to block the glint in his pupils.

My good uncle doesn't seem to be subject to the elders of the family as in the legend.

From this point of view, the things that the family has done are not all the fault of the elders.

Before he could think about it, Hinata Hinata said, "Ningji, you know this is impossible."

"Is it really impossible? The abolition of the clan system has shaken the foundation of the family, or..."

The white-eyed boy looked deeply at everyone present, "It still hurt the interests of some people, I think everyone here should know better than me."

The person who was swept away by the transparent and pure eyes seemed to have seen all the shady things in his heart. The high-level people avoided his sight one after another, and even the elder who was as stable as an old dog subconsciously lowered his eyes.

The white-eyed boy seemed unaware, "If the rebels have the first, they will have the second and the third."

"Times have changed. If the Hyuga family is still standing still, then the only thing waiting for it is to be abandoned by the times."

"That's all I have to say, everyone, please do it yourself."

"Wait." The Great Elder stopped the young man who got up and was about to leave, "Why should we listen to you, a young boy who has made no contribution to the family, uttering wild words here!"

"Since I'm worthless..." The white-eyed boy turned around and smiled, "Then why do you sit here and listen to my wild words?"

Great Elder:  …

The great elder choked.

We should have prevented the first generation from taking this kid to the Daming Mansion in the first place, to see what evildoers he taught!

If the eldest lady of the Zong family is half as good as Neji, no, as long as he has one-third of Neji's ability, he doesn't have to worry about Hinata's future.

Neji was right. The reason why he invited him to drink tea instead of a branding iron after he came back was not only because of Hinata Hizuru’s persuasion, but also because they saw in Neji the value that could bring the family to a higher level.

Four years ago, all they saw was the sky of Konoha, and all the internal struggles were just to gain more recognition and voice in Konoha, but now it is different.

Hoshimi-sama gave ninja a wider stage.

The senior members of the Hyuga family agreed that one day Ninja Village will become a thing of the past, and that the family will have further opportunities in the future by occupying a place in the political circle before others react.

And they have an advantage that others don't have—Ning Ci has become a veritable high-level country, as long as they win him over, they can use Ne Ci to infiltrate the political circles.

Compared with a bird in a cage that is destined to break free, the benefits that are about to be obtained are naturally more important.

Therefore, the higher-ups never thought of offending Ningji from the very beginning. The reason why they were so intimidating was just to suppress Ningji's aura and make this young man a puppet in the hands of the family. Mostly already doomed.

However, it was they who lost in the end.

Neiji Hyuga finished speaking and was about to leave without waiting for the other party's reaction, but was stopped by Hinata Hyuzu again.

"Whether you admit it or not, Hinata's blood is flowing in your body. Do you want to stand by and watch the family lose, so you hate the family so much?"

"I used to be full of resentment, and felt that everyone in the world had failed me." Thinking of the redemption five years ago, Neiji Hyuga's eyes were extremely gentle, "But someone told me that resentment will only make me an enemy Look, people can only truly control their destiny when they become stronger."

"So I don't blame you, and I don't hate the family either."

He knelt down and bowed solemnly to his uncle, "I am very grateful for your teaching." Although this teaching was mixed with selfishness, it is true that he learned a lot of secret techniques that he would not have touched before.

"If the family is in need, you can come to me. I will try my best to help on the premise of not violating the interests of the country and Mr. Xingjian."

Hinata Hinata looked dazed, watching the black-haired boy push the door and leave, his tall and thin figure gradually blending into the dim sunlight outside.

In a daze, he heard someone say: "Why isn't this child from the Zong family?"

Yes, why was he not born in the Zong family?

Hyuga Ningji put his hands in his sleeves, and walked towards the gate along the winding corridor. The setting sun scattered on his body, warming him, and he exhaled a stale breath, feeling that his whole body was more relaxed than ever before.

At this moment, he suddenly wanted to imitate Master Xingjian and nest in a corner for a good nap.

Sensing the vague sight behind him, Neiji Hyuga pretended not to notice, and stepped out of the door with a calm expression.

From now on, he can no longer be restrained here.

When he was about to step away, he suddenly heard a familiar voice at the corner of the street.

"Ningji!"

There was a real smile on the corner of the white-eyed boy's mouth.

The author has something to say: there is no slap in the face, let the cutie who wanted to see the slap in the face disappointed.

If Neji can live, I think he should grow into a gentle, strong, grateful person who faces the world with sunshine.Based on this, with this short story - he has grown into an eagle soaring in the sky with his own strength, and he will become the pride of the Hinata family.

For Neji, this should be a kind of completion.
