Konoha's Peerless Peerless

Chapter 232 Leisure time
The north wind was howling, and the wooden window of Lan's room was blown by the wind. The sound disturbed Lan who was immersed in sleep. He slowly opened his eyes and sat up in a daze. After rubbing his eyes, he Stretch your head to the window blown open by the wind, and it's already dark.

Looking outside the dark hole, he must have slept for a long time, stretched his waist and sat up, put on his clothes, got out of bed, and walked into the hall.

The spacious hall was illuminated by five bright lamps. Standing by the railing, Lan looked at the servants waiting quietly below. Just as he was looking, the sound of the door opening suddenly sounded from the east.

Turning her gaze away, she saw Jing Yin in a ninja outfit holding the door with her hand, she saw Lan, and greeted with a smile: "Mr Lan, you finally woke up, I thought you were going to sleep until tomorrow morning .”

Shizune closed the door and walked over.

Lan scratched her head and smiled, and responded, "I'm really tired these days, so I slept for a long time. By the way, where are the others?"

"They are all going to do their own thing. Izumi and Aunt Mieko went out after dinner. Xianglin and her mother seem to be in the house. They should be teaching Xianglin some sealing technique. As for Orochimaru My lord and Tsunade-sama, they should be with Hashirama-sama, I don’t know exactly what they are doing, they should be in the casino, by the way, you must be hungry after sleeping for so long, in the kitchen There is tremella porridge left, why don't you drink some."

Jing Yin crackled and told everyone's whereabouts, and then looked at Lan expectantly.

Seeing Jing Yin's expectant look, Lan nodded with a smile and said, "Okay then, remember to add some sugar, I like sweet things."

"Well, I see, you go back and sit down first, I'll serve you a meal right now."

Jing Yin turned and left, watching Jing Yin disappear, Lan turned and went back to the house, tidied up the room briefly, picked up a chair and sat by the window.

Pushing open the window and fixing it, the cold night wind slapped Lan's warm face. Gradually, his spirit became sober. on the earth.

Looking at the night scene of Luoxuecheng, Lan's heart gradually calmed down. This kind of peaceful life is really comfortable. It would be great if it could be kept like this forever.

Grinning the corners of his mouth, Lan looked at the moonlight and showed a relaxed smile. He likes this kind of scenery, and also likes this kind of life.

Once upon a time, he explored the meaning of life many times. In fact, the meaning of life is to enjoy life. No matter what he does, he is just looking for a better life.

He raised his hand and summoned a ball of chakra flames, urging Chakra to shoot the flames into the air. As soon as they reached the air, the flames turned into streamers and dissipated. From a distance, it looked like a beautiful firework.

Looking at the light blue fireworks, Lan smiled softly.

Just as he was smiling, the knock on the door pulled him back from his comfort. He opened the door with a chakra line, and Jing Yin walked in with a night of steaming porridge. She smiled and put the white fungus porridge on Lan's body. Beside, put away the wooden plate and said: "I put two spoonfuls of sugar, you can try it, I'm adding some for you if it's not too sweet."

"I'm really sorry to bother you." Lan smiled and picked up the porcelain bowl and the somewhat warm porcelain spoon and said, "Then, I'm starting."

After finishing speaking, Lan closed his eyes and took a mouthful of warm white fungus porridge. With just one bite, the sweetness filled his taste buds. The sweetness could bring him a sense of satisfaction and happiness, and he bit the soft white fungus Crushed, mixed with hot porridge and sent to the stomach, a warmth rose from the bottom of my heart.

A look of happiness appeared on Lan's face, looking at Lan who was enjoying himself, Jing Yin said with satisfaction: "Okay, hurry up and drink, there will be more after drinking."

"Well, the porridge you make is really good. If you don't become a ninja, you may be able to make a lot of money by opening a porridge shop." Lan praised the porridge.

"I'm not a ninja..." Jingyin murmured to herself, brushed the hair that was blocking her eyes to her ears, shook her head and said with a smile, "How is it possible? In this world, only being a ninja can protect yourself well. No matter how big a porridge shop is, it’s useless.”

Lan's eating porridge slowed down. She was right. In this world, a person without strength is just a lamb after all. Businessmen, nobles, farmers, whatever it is, can't compare to a ninja with chakra. It is the world of ninjas, and it is also the age of ninjas.

Putting down the white fungus porridge that he drank, Lan said to Jingyin: "Although I said so, ninjas are really hard, even in peacetime, but if there is a war, the death rate of ninjas is very high. "

"Yeah." Shizune looked out of the window sadly, and sighed, "Everyone envies ninjas and longs to become ninjas, but they don't know how much they have to lose to be a ninja. Pay attention to the profession that may lose your life, so many people envy it, if the world can always be peaceful, then maybe I should open a porridge shop like you said."

Lan was silent. The topic of ninjas was always sad. Every ninja full of emotion was sad and sad. In their memories, those who appeared most frequently were those who passed away.

A ninja who endures the unbearable grief of ordinary people is the most glamorous and dirtiest profession in the world.

Sitting on the chair in silence for a while, Lan picked up the bowl and drank the remaining porridge in one gulp. After drinking it, he looked at Jingyin and asked, "Do you have any dreams?"

"Ah, me, dream..." Shizune was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don't know, if I have to say it, it is to inherit Tsunade-sama's medical ninjutsu and become a great medical ninja. Although, I often do this I think so, but with my talent, I probably won't reach Tsunade-sama's level in my lifetime."

Shizune smiled wryly.

Lan looked at Shizune, he didn't know if it was possible for her to reach Tsunade's level, but everything in this world is based on talent, no matter how hard some people work hard, it is impossible to succeed, there is no opportunity, Shizune wants to go further , I am afraid it is extremely difficult.

After thinking about it for a while, Lan turned his head and looked at the white snow field. At this time, there were no traces of volcanic ash in the snow field. The power of nature is unfathomable.

Seeing that Lan didn't speak, Jing Yin asked, "By the way, Lan, what is your dream?"

"Ah, my dream..." Lan turned back hesitantly, thought for a while in silence, and said, "My dream is to live peacefully with you. I like this kind of life, but it's a pity that many people I don't like peace, so I have to become stronger so that I can protect you."

"So, do you want to protect us all the time?" Shizune asked.

"Ah, that's probably the case, what's the matter, don't you like being protected?" Lan asked.

"No, it's just that I think you are too tired. After all, we are just your friends. If you keep thinking about protecting us, you will be very tired." Jing Yin said with concern.

"I think it's okay, at least I still have someone I can protect. If I lose you one day, I think I might go crazy." Lan responded.

Jing Yin pursed her lips, raised her fists to support her face, looked at Lan and asked, "Do you have someone you like?"

"Ah, why did you ask that suddenly." Lan's face turned red all of a sudden, he doesn't know who he likes now, it seems that he likes everyone, it feels so selfish to say so.

Seeing that Lan's face became like a red apple, Jing Yin couldn't help laughing, she pouted, shook her head and said, "I didn't expect this kind of question to make you shy. Speaking of which, you are not young anymore. Now, it's time to think about this kind of thing."

"Thinking about this kind of thing? I think it's better to wait until I become an adult, at least a few years, what? Do you mean you like me? Hehe, if you like me, that would be great It's gone." Lan looked at Jing Yin with a smile.

Jing Yin's face turned pink, she rolled her eyes at Lan, put the porcelain bowl in front of Lan on the wooden plate and said: "Who would like you, you know how to think wildly all day long, now it's almost the end of the year, you Aren't you going to prepare gifts for everyone? If I don't like the gift you gave me, then I will cook porridge by myself in the future. "

After finishing speaking, she stood up, turned around and walked out of the house, opened the door, she stopped and turned her head to warn Lan, "It's better not to hurry at night in the future, it's not good for your health."

After speaking, Shizune closed the door and walked away.

Looking at the closed door, Lan raised his mouth and smiled. In fact, he and Orochimaru have been on their way since they came down from Mt. Jina. They planned to rest when they got home, but they ran into Minato who came to visit. If it didn't take a lot of energy to deal with him, he wouldn't have slept till now.

Stretching out her tongue to moisten her dry lips, Lan turned around and closed the window, Jing Yin was right, she had to prepare some gifts for everyone, and I don't know what they like, so let's find out.

Lan put on her ninja costume and went out.

At night, Lan uses puppet art to eavesdrop in each house. He wants to know everyone's preferences, and then prepare some gifts for them that they like.

The night wind was blowing coldly, and gradually, light snow fell in the sky. Judging from the momentum of the snow, it should fall for several days. It seems that this year will be spent in snow again.

In the middle of the night, Jingmei, who went out to buy things, had already returned to the house with Mieko, and Arashi, who had snooped on some news, had already returned to the room. Those who hadn’t come back were only Orochimaru and the others who were outside, and they didn’t know about them. When will I come back, probably in the early morning of the next day.

The lights went out one by one, and the only place in the city where the lights were still on was the gambling house full of gamblers.
