[Zuo Ming] Bone Eater

In Sasuke's opinion, ramen is relatively devoid of nutrition and flavor.However, Konoha’s Ichiraku Ramen is an exception.

Take a look at the menu of Konoha Ichiraku Ramen. The soup bases include tonkotsu soup, soy sauce soup, miso soup, chicken soup, bonito soup, curry, light vegetarian soup, and toppings with marinated eggs , char siew, pork neck, skin-on chicken, chicken wings, etc. For better ones, you can choose prawns, eels, king crabs, salmon, tuna, sea bream, such a small shop, it is rare to be able to bring such rich choices to customers .

Besides, the noodles are somersaulting and chewy, and with the "three ingredients" placed on the table and the super delicious spicy sauce that the uncle made secretly, it is not an exaggeration to say that the ramen is the best in Konoha.The most important thing is that the price here is very cheap, no wonder it can attract gourmands to give up other delicacies and always come here to taste from time to time.

Sasuke's favorite flavor is bonito soup.Light with the freshness of the ocean, the soup is slightly dark but transparent and pure, restrained and unassuming, with a unique personality, it is a quiet and elegant taste.With this soup base, it is enough even without toppings.

Naruto prefers miso.In fact, it’s not about how delicious this soup base is, it’s just that it needs nutrition to grow up. When he was a child, he heard from his uncle that the miso soup base made of soybeans is rich in nutrition and very healthy, so Naruto was heartbroken when he heard it. , love it so much.

Of course, are you going to say what is the difference between miso soup and bonito soup?In fact, apart from the difference in appearance, the taste of the two soup bases is quite similar. ——It can be seen that these two teenagers have completely different personalities and appearances, but they always have a lot in common.

Before the noodles were on the table, Naruto sat on the chair, his legs were shaking impatiently.

He is holding the chopsticks, his eyes are excited, and he is ready to start at any time, which shows how impatient he is.Sasuke tilted his head to look at him, the corners of his mouth raised habitually, a kind of inadvertent tenderness.

"I like to eat, eat more." Said, Sasuke took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth.

"Yeah, hahaha." Naruto smiled happily, but saw him put on a cigarette, and immediately said: "Hey, Brother Guiyue, don't smoke."

……

Sasuke glanced at Naruto, seeing him frowning and looking at him persistently, suddenly felt a little guilty in his heart.

However, he has been smoking for four or five years now, and it is too difficult for him to get rid of it immediately.

Fortunately, the noodles arrived at this time.

With a "bang", the uncle neatly placed the bowl in front of the two without spilling any soup.The steaming hot noodles came with the aroma of food, Sasuke moved his nose, thinking that it was still delicious, temporarily dismissed the idea of ​​smoking, took the chopsticks and broke them apart.

Seeing Naruto, he smiled contentedly, opened his chopsticks, said "I'm starting", and immediately started eating with a wheeze.

"Thank you for inviting me to eat noodles, Brother Guiyue."

"Do you feel better?"

"Ok!"

"Then eat more. Forget what happened just now."

"Ah, thanks."

After Naruto said gratefully, he began to munch on the noodles.

And Sasuke was not in a hurry to eat, he turned his head to look at Naruto, and said softly:

"You, like him, love miso ramen."

When he was eating, he suddenly heard the other party say this, Naruto stopped and said curiously:

"Who?"

"My family."

"Ah, you said you were a lover. What a coincidence?"

"Yeah, what a coincidence. And even if I order two bowls, I will only eat miso."

"Haha, it's the same as me."

As Naruto said, he wolfed down the two eggs in the bowl at once. When Sasuke saw it, he picked up the chopsticks and put the eggs in his own bowl into Naruto's bowl.

Naruto hurriedly stopped: "Hey, big brother, don't give it to me, you eat."

"No, I don't like this much."

After saying that, he also picked out the pink fish roll and put it in Naruto's bowl. — Naruto loved them in the past.he remembers.

"Brother Guiyue, you don't even want to eat?"

"I see you like it, here it is."

"How do you know I like it?" Naruto asked happily.

"Because my family likes it too. You two are so similar, you should be about the same?" Sasuke agreed, sipping his noodles.

"Wow, I didn't expect me to have so many similarities with him?"

"Isn't it?"

"But speaking of it, brother, you and Sasuke have the same taste. He just loves this soup base, and he doesn't like to add anything."

"So, we are destined, aren't we?"

It seemed natural when he spoke there, but Naruto's face turned red when he heard it here.

Sure enough, Brother Guiyue was still so outspoken.

However, it is true to say that there is a relationship.

Otherwise, why would Naruto Uzumaki have such a complicated but pretty good "big brother" for no reason?

"Brother Guiyue, did you enter Hyuga's house just now?"

"Well."

"They didn't find you?"

"No one will notice you sneaking in. I'm so much better than you, so it's impossible for others to find me."

"Hey, hey, how can you praise yourself like this!#"

"Ha ha."

"Cut, what are you laughing at? It's easy for me to surpass you!"

"I'm the most powerful ninja in the village, don't talk big."

"Again...! You are not humble at all!"

Naruto stared at him and said, and there seemed to be a smile, but the smile was not obvious.

Naruto grinned too.

"Brother Guiyue, let me ask you. How long will you stay in Konoha? If you want to find your lover's coffin, it's impossible to stay here all the time, right?"

Pausing there for a few seconds, said:

"Maybe not leaving for the time being."

"Eh? Then how can I find it?"

"How should I put it, I now find that the kind of aimless search is a waste of time and energy. Now I plan to settle down here first. Then ask someone to help me find it. I will go when I know the direction, so I won't go again wandering."

"I see, that's good."

Naruto said, took the chili sauce, and added a spoonful for himself.By the way, he handed it to the person around him, who thanked him and poured most of the bowl into his own soup.

"Will it be too much..."

"Well."

"You're not like Sasuke. He basically doesn't put chili in his ramen."

"People will always change, Naruto. Now, I can't taste it if I put less."

Having said that, the air is always inexplicably sad.

Naruto glanced at the man beside him secretly, and said softly:

"Hmm...Brother Guiyue, I'm very curious about your past. Do you have time to tell me? Is your village the same as here? Where are your other friends? And...what is your original hometown? like?"

After saying this, the man just bowed his head and ate.

His black hair blocked his eyes, and the expression on his face seemed to change, but didn't seem to change.

"I forgot about the past."

That's all he said.It seems unwilling to say any more.

Naruto realized what he meant, so he lowered his head and just ate the noodles without mentioning it.

After that, there was only the quiet sound of bowls and chopsticks, and until a long while, Sasuke said:

"Naruto, from now on, call me Brother Guiyue."

"Huh?" Naruto almost choked.

Is it coming again...

He glared at Sasuke: "Brother Guiyue, don't take advantage of it all the time. Don't you feel too tired of calling it Brother Guiyue?"

Sasuke shook his head, looked at him and said, "You misunderstood. I think so, why don't you call me brother from now on. I'll be your brother."

Hearing this, Naruto was stunned.

The noodles were still hanging on his lips, he moved his mouth and said softly, "You consider me my brother?"

Sasuke nodded, looking at him seriously.

When the black eyes and the blue eyes looked at each other, the space fell into absolute silence.

Then, Sasuke said softly:

"Yes.... I will be your brother. You see, you are alone in Konoha now, with no relatives. And I am also alone, homeless. Maybe it is fate, I met you. We compare Hierarchy... How should I put it, since everyone is alone, why not live together and help each other. Don't you want to have a relative? So I want to be your relative, take care of you and protect you in the future. Isn't it good? "

"Is this... really okay?" Naruto's voice trembled a little.

"Of course. Would you like to?"

Naruto held the bowl in his hand, he wanted to say something but couldn't.

While the two were talking, the uncle and sister at the ramen shop looked back curiously.They looked at the strange man, heard what he and Naruto said, and looked at each other.

The two have been running a shop here since Naruto was very young, and the lonely Naruto is one of their memories of Konoha.

I didn't expect that this person who didn't know when to appear, now actually...

"I……"

Naruto said tremblingly, his eyes suddenly moistened. "Why are you so nice to me?"

Sasuke paused, sighed, and said softly:

"Maybe there is no blood relationship. It is strange to be relatives. However, during the war, many parents also adopted orphans and finally became a family. Usually, many people stick to that kind of blood relationship, thinking that they are not a family and cannot be very close. But often people After suffering a huge trauma or losing everything, I realized that these things are not as serious as I thought. It is impossible to get everything in one's life, as long as one lives contentedly.

Therefore, in the situation of loneliness and no one cares about, no matter who you are with, as long as you are sincerely willing to support each other... Now, no one cares about you, and no one cares about me, so I think we can form a temporary relationship A family is just for one more person who takes care of each other, and also increases the courage and motivation to live.When encountering wind and rain, we can block together, and when encountering happiness, we can share together.Isn't it good to deal with troubles with the only strength we have and live a relatively satisfactory life? "

Sasuke's words are from the heart.

He has been wandering for four or five years, and he is actually very tired. He needs a place to be cared and bonded to. Naruto, who was lonely and helpless since he was a child, suffered a lot after he left, and also needs someone to take care of and comfort him. A quiet and caring environment is required.And in Sasuke's heart, it is indeed the case, whether it is falling in love with Naruto, or simply living together, being his brother, or even just a neighbor, it is enough to be able to guard him who is "resurrected" again, and live a good life.He wants to make up for the vacancy he once had in his life.

And these words are touching.He has a sore nose.

In fact, he used to think so too.

So he regards Sasuke as his family, Mr. Iruka as his father, and includes all those who treat him well in the list of relatives.

It's just that they didn't explain it as sincerely as Yue Yue and Hachi Prince Guiyue.

"I... To be honest, Brother Guiyue, I really want to have a relative." He choked up and said. "It's just...if you know me in the future, there may be a lot of trouble....In this village, most people don't like me."

"Whoever bullies you in the future, I will teach them a lesson for you." Sasuke's voice was powerful.

After hearing this, Naruto was stunned.

For a long time, he grinned.

Looking at Sasuke, Naruto's eyes sparkled.

"Then let's live together from now on. Brother!"

At the moment, the shop is very quiet, even the sound of the uncle cooking noodles has stopped.

This "big brother" made Sasuke himself stunned.

Although it feels a bit misplaced.

But so close.

There was a trace of tenderness in Sasuke's eyes.

However, afterward, after taking a sip of the soup on purpose, he looked displeased and said critically:

"Call me Brother Guiyue."

"Isn't the elder brother the same?"

"I like it when you call me that, it looks cuter."

"No, I'm not a girl. Why are you screaming so loudly?"

"Oh, how sad."

"It's still called Brother Guiyue! I don't want to be so weird."

"sad."

"Hey Hey hey!"

The two were arguing. Suddenly, Sasuke took a sip of soup and said:

"Naruto, Loy Krathong Festival, go with Brother Guiyue?"

"Okay. Hey, it's not Brother Guiyue!"

"Why bother with this? Loi Krathong Festival, brother Guiyue will take you to continue eating ramen."

"...Forget it, call it whatever you want. But you must do what you say! I want to eat three bowls!"

"You can eat three bowls now."

"Really?! Great, then I'm welcome!"

It was not yet night, and the residual heat of the setting sun had not yet dissipated, but the breeze had already begun to sweep through Muye Village.

The wind is very soft, driving away the heat, but not abrupt.

Like the joy and tenderness released by a relieved heart,

It is also like a mother's hand, caressing everyone step by step.

It is a feeling that makes Naruto feel comfortable.

Of course, this may also be because Naruto has been thinking about the word "brother".

He felt fresh and moved.

Even a little want to cry.

Why do you want to cry?

Relatives, someone offered to be his relatives.

There is still a blood relationship, such an intimate kind.

When Naruto was eating noodles, he secretly glanced at Hachioji Guiyue, curious about his existence, and at the same time grateful for his existence.

He is so strange.

Treat me so well.

Who is he?

Who is his lover?

If I could see a photo or something, maybe...

However, just as he was still thinking about it, something interrupted him.

"Naruto!"

Suddenly, a panting shout from a distance caught his attention.

Naruto hurriedly turned his head, but saw a person at the end of the busy street.

The light of the setting sun is still dazzling now, so he can see his face clearly.

It was the face of a white-eyed boy with sweat and anxiety.

"Naruto."

When he got closer, the boy shouted again, but Naruto was stunned.

"...Ningji?"

The author has something to say: I'm so sorry.There was no update yesterday or yesterday.Let everyone wait.I will say in advance if there is no update next time.

But seeing everyone swiping every day, I was so moved tt I was wrong.

Thank you Qing'er, Light Blue Zai, and mine from another Zai Zai

Then, I actually kept thinking about what Ichiraku Ramen tastes like. . .

After a few chapters, I tried my best to bring Er Shao's personality back...

Then, it seems to be written as a farming article... no... we are fans of big fantasy and big battles.We must play well in the future.
