[Zuo Ming] Bone Eater

"It was a stormy night... Mother touched my head and told me that we, the Hachioji family, have an unspeakable secret."

The speaker's voice is very low and the speed of speech is slow, creating a quiet and sad atmosphere.

Naruto put a quilt on his body, his eyes were fixed on the one in front of him, and he listened carefully.

And Sasuke sat cross-legged, and said slowly: "My mother said, 'This matter is related to the reputation of the Hachioji clan, and it must not be revealed. I was surprised, but wanted to know the reason, so I nodded and agreed. So, my mother told me , so our ancestors..."

Naruto's eyes tightened: "What's wrong?"

Sasuke moved closer to him, his black eyes flickering with mysterious colors: "My ancestors are descendants of the Uchiha clan."

Naruto said in surprise: "The offspring of the Uchiha clan?!"

But then he said suspiciously: "But, if you and the Uchiha clan are relatives, why doesn't Granny Tsunade have any impression of Hachioji's surname?"

Sasuke then sighed sadly, and said: "This is the secret. I didn't want to say it at first... But we have such a friendship, so I will reveal a thing or two... However, because it is related to the Hachioji clan and Uchi The reputation of the Bo family and the two families. So, you must not tell other people, can you?"

Naruto patted his chest hastily, nodded and said: "I will never say it!"

Sasuke nodded heavily and said, "Okay, I believe you are a trustworthy person, so I will tell you."

Then, he put one hand on his knee, his eyes became serious, and his voice became deeper and deeper:

"The reason why it is said that no one in the Land of Fire knows the Hachioji clan is because although our ancestors are said to be descendants of the Uchiha clan, they are... an illegitimate child who was abandoned. He wandered around because he was not recognized by the family. , will eventually meet other races, get married and have children. Otherwise, the Uchiha clan has always been intermarried within the clan, how could there be such a heterogeneous ancestor as our ancestors?"

After saying this, Naruto suddenly realized, and at the same time he seemed very sympathetic: "I didn't expect that your ancestors had such a tragic fate. It must be a very painful thing not to be recognized by the family?"

Sasuke nodded and said: "That's right. This is also a scar on the heart of the Hachioji clan, and even more so, a sad thing for my ancestors. He hated his father for this, and he would never call himself Uchiha again, but he thought of a new name. Call……."

Naruto hurriedly said, "Eighth Prince?"

Sasuke said in surprise: "You are really smart, that's right."

Naruto was taken aback: "I didn't expect such a thing to happen..."

Sasuke sighed, and said: "I know you can't believe it, because when I heard that I have a blood relationship with the Uchiha clan, I was also very surprised. We are actually related to such a great family! At first I thought it was my mother joking, Later, I looked up the books and saw the information about Sharingan, and then remembered our own... Reading Sharingan, and I finally understood. Looking carefully, the shape and structure of Sharingan and Sharingan are basically exactly the same. The difference is just the color. It is the gene mutation caused by the intermarriage between the descendants of the Uchiha clan and other races that will cause such a change, but this does not affect our ability."

Naruto's heart fluttered when he heard it: "So that's how it is. Reading Sharingan is such a powerful feeling! So what's the difference between it and Sharingan?"

Sasuke thought for a few seconds and said, "Since the ancestors are of the same clan, there is actually not much difference."

"I see." Naruto nodded vigorously. "Speaking of which, why do you want to show me your sharing eye, Brother Eighth Prince?"

Sasuke said: "...It should be that I was drinking yesterday, and then you rushed to me when you saw me. I was startled for a while and my eyes automatically activated."

Naruto heard this, and thought about it, this was the only possibility.After all, Hachioji did have a strong smell of alcohol.

But after thinking for a while, he asked suspiciously, "Then why did I suddenly fall asleep?"

Sasuke said without changing his face: "My Sharingan usually has an automatic defense effect. Once attacked by outsiders, when it is automatically activated, it has a hypnotic effect. Maybe it's because of..."

Naruto suddenly realized and nodded: "So that's the case. I didn't expect that Reading Sharingan is such a powerful thing. It is worthy of the Hachioji clan."

It's just that, so to speak, everything last night was indeed an illusion.The so-called Eighth Prince Guiyue said that he was Uchiha Sasuke, it was his own imagination.

Sure enough, I miss Sasuke so much...

Naruto said a little regretfully, "That was my mistake, I'm sorry, Brother Guiyue. But, that... I want to see your eyes again, okay?"

"why?"

Naruto scratched his head and said with a smile: "I feel very curious, so I want to take a good look at it. And it's rare to see eyes so similar to those of the Uchiha clan for the first time. And..."

Speaking of this, Naruto looked a little embarrassed.

Seeing him like this, in fact, Sasuke already knew that he missed himself.Just let him see the same eyes as Uchiha Sasuke, even if the color is different, he will feel comforted...

The expression in Sasuke's eyes suddenly softened, he nodded and said, "Yes."

After speaking, he sat upright a little while Naruto looked at him without daring to breathe.

Seeing him closing and opening his eyes for a while, a pair of purple eyes appeared in front of Naruto, and at the same time, in those purple lake-like eyes, three golden jades were beautifully reflected, Naruto was stunned: "Wow ..."

"Does it look good?" Seeing the admiration on Naruto's face, Sasuke raised the corner of his mouth and asked, Naruto just nodded desperately.

"If you like, you can take a closer look."

"Eh, can you?"

"can."

After hearing this, Naruto leaned closer, staring into Sasuke's eyes with amazement, they were so close that they could hear each other's breathing.

At this time, the sun is just slanting into the house, the blue sky and white clouds are outside the window, and the birds are flying happily. Staying in Sasuke's eyes becomes a beautiful painting.An inexplicable sense of satisfaction rose in Sasuke's heart.

He suddenly felt that the so-called good life is not difficult, just sitting in a small room like this, looking at the one he loves in the hustle and bustle of the world, all the scenery is just a deep gaze in his eyebrows and eyes is enough.

For a moment, Sasuke and Naruto looked at each other, seeing him staring blankly, and even forgot the time.After watching for a long time for some unknown reason, he suddenly saw a trace of sadness in Naruto's eyes.

"What's wrong?" Sasuke asked suspiciously.

Naruto sat back in his seat, only shaking his head.

Seeing this, Sasuke understood a little bit, and said softly, "You, miss him?"

Seeing that he was guessed, Naruto didn't hide it, just scratched his head and said: "To tell you the truth, I seemed to dream of him last night. Although the dream is not very clear, but he is so close, it seems to be right behind me." , I can turn around and see him at any time. But when I look, I don’t know where he has gone... Ah, I’m always a mother-in-law, isn’t it very useless, Brother Guiyue?”

Sasuke shook his head, then fell silent.

After a while, he said softly, "Do you want to see him so much?"

Naruto nodded, lowered his head and said: "Well, I want to see him. I want to know where he went, what kind of place it was, how he lived, how he ate, how he slept at night, whether the training was hard or not, big snake How Wan treats him, and whether he will suffer from insomnia due to loneliness in the middle of the night. How are you doing now, whether you are happy or not... I want to know."

Hearing this, Sasuke was moved in his heart.

He unconsciously supported Naruto's shoulder, the weight of that hand was as heavy as his mood, and the words he wanted to say suddenly became very heavy, and he could hardly speak.

But in the end he still looked down at Naruto, and said slowly in a slightly trembling tone:

"He, the place he went to...is different from here. However, because the training grounds are all in the wild, the scenery is not much different from here. At the same time, he is a very independent person who can take care of himself. For Exercising well, he always eats nutritiously, and will work and rest on time to maintain physical strength, and his body will get better and stronger. Speaking of training, it is very hard work, and he has to practice physical fitness every day. Jutsu, ninjutsu, and some forbidden techniques, but although it is very tiring, this is the path he chose, so what complaints can he have? Besides, since he lives in someone else's place, he will definitely not be as leisurely as at home Yes, but it’s definitely not bad. Orochimaru wants to occupy his body, so he is naturally regarded as a guest of honor and obedient to him. Maybe he lives more freely than Orochimaru himself. In fact, you don’t have to worry about him at all Worry."

Hearing this, Naruto was very comforted, but he asked curiously, "Brother Guiyue, how did you know?"

Sasuke said softly: "It's not difficult to understand if you assume yourself to be him and put yourself in his shoes."

Naruto fell silent.After a while he said: "That's what I said, but how can I not worry...Although the lecherous sage said that Orochimaru had just completed a reincarnation, I was very worried that he would change his mind and attack Sasuke halfway through. Moreover, although he said he was very strong, But I have never lived outside of Konoha. I am alone, and everyone around me wants to harm him. How can I live well in such an environment? No one will listen to him when he encounters troubles. I can only comfort myself, no one to talk to him..."

After hearing these words, Sasuke lowered his head, grabbed his leg, his hands trembling slightly.

He said in a hoarse voice: "You...you care about him so much, I, I'm so happy for him. It's really... the greatest happiness for him to have you in his life. "

Naruto grinned and scratched his head in embarrassment: "Where is it? It's so sensational."

"So worried about his words..." Sasuke whispered to himself, "I'll take you to see him when I have time."

Hearing this, Naruto looked up at the man in front of him in astonishment: "You, what did you just say?"

"Oh, no. I mean, you should run into him again if you get the chance."

"...Really?" Naruto's eyes were full of smiles: "Yeah. I thought so too."

Speaking of this, he put his hands on the thighs sitting cross-legged, stared at the man in front of him with burning eyes, and said: "That boy Sasuke, I will see him sooner or later, and bring him back!"

"Yes, I will."

Sasuke looked at his familiar eyes, slightly raised the corners of his mouth, and nodded.

***

Afterwards, after Naruto finished cleaning Sasuke's old house, the two went back together, and went to the supermarket by the way.

Speaking of which, Sasuke was very conspicuous along the way, attracting the attention of many girls, young wives and grandmothers in the streets and alleys.

This is not nonsense, so far I have never met such a handsome man in the village.Even if there was a sense of decadence in his eyes that he didn't sleep well, he looked personable and graceful.Walking casually on the side of the road can be approached a dozen times.For this reason, Naruto can say pain and happiness.If it's happy, it's when someone finally casts a friendly and enthusiastic gaze in his direction. If it's painful, it's because Hachioji Kiyue is too eye-catching and makes Naruto feel inferior.

After finally returning home, Naruto smiled wryly, "Brother Guiyue, you are really popular. You can get a discount if you go to the supermarket to buy anything." Looking at the rice in his hand that was originally priced at ten silver coins but bought back at eight silver coins, Naruto said so.

And Sasuke raised the corner of his mouth, put the things into the kitchen cabinet, and said:

"Isn't it good? Things like saving money are good and harmless."

"Haha, that's true." Naruto laughed.

"Ah... By the way, I may have to go out after dinner tonight, and I won't be back until tomorrow morning." Sasuke said suddenly.

"Hey, what are you going to do?" Naruto asked curiously.

"Go to the next village to meet a friend and come back." Sasuke replied casually.

"Hey, do you have friends around here?"

"Well."

At this point, Sasuke stopped talking, Naruto saw that he didn't seem to want to talk deeply, he was afraid that his lover's affairs would be involved, and he didn't want to poke his heartache, so he stopped asking.

For a while, Naruto cooked the dinner himself. Although it was not as good as Sasuke's cooking, he ate very deliciously, bowl after bowl, which made Naruto, who had no confidence in his cooking skills, very happy.After dinner, Sasuke helped finish the housework, and Naruto wanted to say something to him and thank him, but when he turned around, he disappeared.

And at the same moment, on the roof of Naruto's house, Sasuke stood awe-inspiring in the dark night, staring at a certain direction like a star.

Looking down at the notebook in his hand, some names were recorded in it. With a slight movement in his eyes, he closed the notebook and put it in his pocket.

"There are quite a lot of old friends to meet. But before that, let's go to that guy named Uchiha Sasuke... Is it okay?"

He said this to the gem in his head.

But when the words fell, the gem did not respond.

This means there are no taboos.

"That's it, I understand."

As soon as the words fell, under the perfect cover of the night, this handsome shadow disappeared instantly on the roof;

That action was as elegant and treacherous as a ghost, not even disturbing an inch of air.
