Two days later, when Mizuki and his wife Xiaochun were shopping, they pretended to be nonchalant and bought a few lottery tickets. Among the neighbors who wanted to get rich overnight and joined in the fun, an inconspicuous young couple carried lottery tickets. Just left.
Soon after, colored lanterns were hung up at the sales point, fireworks were set off, and banners were raised, announcing to the outside world that the luckiest lottery winning customer of the month was born here.
While everyone was guessing which lucky person had won the grand prize, Shuimu took away the prize with a total prize of more than fifteen million taels of silver with a smile on his face.
In the bounty directory of the underground bounty house, the bounties offered by famous jounin are only of this level. Even though the amount is quite high, it is still a bit short of buying a house in full.
Mizuki and Kochun discussed it and did not choose real estate in popular neighborhoods or newly developed areas. Instead, they bought an apartment in a relatively old location in the back, close to Konoha Hospital and Hokage Rock.
The area is not too big, and the decoration is not trendy and elegant enough. The location is relatively close to the ninja school where Mizuki works and the logistics team where Xiaochun works, so it will not delay work.
Following the rock wall of the back mountain, you can easily reach the small flower garden that has been opened for easy care. Being so pragmatic, on the one hand, Xiao Chun insisted. After buying a new home and decorating it, most of the remaining money was saved for emergencies.
The reason why Mizuki agreed was because he heard some different meanings in the words of Mizuki and Togakushi Hinode.
Comparing what the Fusagi family has done in Konoha Village in the past two years, it is not difficult to see that while squeezing the potential of Konoha ninjas, they have not forgotten
"Shifting from the real to the imaginary", dumping all the real assets to the Konoha ninjas, and then turning them into medium and long-term debts, earning interest steadily.
For a wealthy family of the size of the Gushan family, there is no need to worry about the three melons and two dates. The real control relationship is what they care about.
If the Furusugi family had the intention of leaving Konoha Village and completely severing their relationship, they would not have come in in the first place.
"Are you worried that Konoha Village will break its contract and fail to repay its debts, or..." In an instant, Mizuki thought of the two landmark events in which the Furusugi family made plans to rebuild Konoha Village.
The Nine-Tails attack on the village and the night of the Uchiha genocide. Coincidentally, every time something happened, it was a cycle of nearly seven years, two years of development, two years of fire sale, two years of withdrawal, and finally waiting for Konoha Village to be reduced to rubble, and then do it again.
This kind of thing happened once when the Third Ninja War broke out. At that time, the war did not affect Konoha Village, so it was not obvious yet; after the Kyuubi attacked the village, the presence of the Furusugi family and a group of foreign capital in Konoha Village The feeling has obviously increased; now, three years have passed since the night when the Uchiha clan was exterminated... No, it was four years. Has the Furusugi family made a temporary withdrawal plan again?
On the surface, it was a resistance from the top management of Kosugi Village who did not want the Kosugi family to control the lifeline of the village. However, if Kosugi Bushui, the man standing in the shadows behind the scenes, peeping at Konoha Village, did not take the initiative to cooperate, how could it have been so smooth? ?
"dangerous! 』This is Mizuki's immature judgment after carefully weighing it. Maybe the source of the danger is not the Gushan family, but they must have some very important information.
For example, before the Kyuubi attacked the village, the Kosugi family's property also suffered losses, but the personnel were almost unscathed, which was in sharp contrast to the Konoha villagers who suffered heavy casualties.
Of course, everyone later knew that there was no widely known reason why Gushan Bushui suddenly had an illegitimate daughter, and was then taken back to reprimand him. By the way, a series of personnel teams prepared to serve Young Master Gushan all left with him. Successfully dodged a disaster.
The night of the Uchiha genocide was even more confusing. Even Konoha Village may not have fully grasped all the secrets.
Coupled with the return of the capital tide this time, Mizuki had a lot to think about. Compensation for a good job this time can obviously be given to real estate properties, such as those in less popular neighborhoods.
"One-family home building" is obviously more suitable for newlyweds who do not own their own homes. This is a real prize in different lottery pools.
But there is no house, no
"Building one household" does not even provide a shop in Hukou to support a family. It does not provide real estate, only money. Why?
Because the money is safe and can be taken away. "Is there another war, or a big accident like the Nine-Tails attacking the village and the Uchiha genocide?"
Facing the early summer moonlight, Mizuki sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and meditated. After an unknown amount of time, light footsteps came from behind.
"Why are you here? I couldn't see your person when I woke up. I thought I went out to do an emergency mission."
"How can I have so many urgent tasks to do now? I won't be asked for really important things." People like Mizuki who have made big mistakes are no longer in line with the mainstream.
You don't need him for small things, but you can't trust him for big things. Only things that are innocuous, trivial, have a certain threshold, and must be done by someone can get Shuimu's turn.
"Can't sleep? What are you thinking about..."
"Suddenly we have a lot of money, we have a house, and the decoration is ready. All we have to do is move in. Not long ago, we were crowded in a small dilapidated building, and we were afraid of cooking fumes that would affect the neighbors. Now we have a home. The one who has a wife is the winner in life.”
"It's not that exaggerated. There are still fifteen years of loans to repay."
"It's much better than before. I'm thinking about what I did to make God care about me like this."
"I'm lucky, if I win a prize, what else could it be?"
"It's not that simple!" Shuimu smiled softly, and it was hard to explain too much. It’s hard to say that if your man is good at hugging other people’s thighs, he will be rewarded with some bonuses!
"You just think too much. We have worked so hard to stand out from our peers and become ninjas. We are already lucky."
"I always feel that it should be better! Thinking about the past, everything was calm, but since I had an accident and narrowly escaped death, my life has been better."
"You can't say anything about fate. In the past, who would have thought that such a huge Uchiha would disappear from the village? I have seen that orphan a few times. He is quite pitiful."
"Who knows what the future will bring? I think that child will have a terrible future." The Uchiha family is already very strong, but some forces can exterminate it, and some forces can preserve it.
Why are we in this situation? To put it bluntly, we are not strong enough or united enough.
"Let's not talk about that. There is something I didn't tell you." Xiaochun smiled and hugged Mizuki's neck from behind, whispering in his ear,
"I felt a little uncomfortable the past two days. I went to the hospital for a checkup. They said I might be pregnant, but the time was too short and it wasn't very obvious. I can't confirm it yet."
"Really?" Speaking of this, Mizuki, who was a little depressed, was immediately overjoyed.
"That's a big happy event. I've been full of surprises recently. How about I go and ask for a leave for you, rest peacefully for a few days, and then go to the hospital for a check-up." In fact, there was no need for any check-up. I gently touched the soft skin with my palm. Chakra perception was emitted from his abdomen, and Mizuki could roughly detect that a dangerous mental power was beating. It was a life form different from Xiao Chun.
Since joining Gu Shan Bu Shui's command, he has accepted a series of
After the "gift", Mizuki felt more and more that the changes that had happened to him were really amazing. Not only is the physical fitness steadily improving with almost no upper limit, but the level of perception is also rising.
The idea of reaching the Jonin level within three to five years was too conservative. Mizuki even felt that if he had a good teacher, he could try the test of a special Jonin next year.
Of course,
The level of "jounin" is no longer just about meeting the standards. At best, it can only be regarded as a candidate. Whether it is your turn or not, you have to rely on the wishes of the Hokage.
A jounin is no longer a ninja like a chuunin. He is the backbone of the village, and every one of them is important.
Xiaochun seemed to feel that her husband's mood was getting better, and Xiaochun felt a little relieved.
"Then I'm going to rest. I have to go to work tomorrow. I can't really ask for leave until it's confirmed."
"Well, go ahead, let me admire the moon again." In the dead of night, Shuimu, who had regained his composure again, lightly tapped his chest, and then asked in a low voice,
"Are you watching?" In an instant, a ray of golden and red energy gathered in front of Mizuki, forming a hazy abstract face.
"What's the matter?"
"Why did you change the person?"
"Ranmaru has a temporary mission and is not in Konoha Village. I will take his place for the time being."
"what is your name?"
"Fishing fire!"
"Eh?" Shuimu was stunned and asked in disbelief,
"Is it the Yu Huo I know?"
"I am!"
"You actually have such ability, why didn't you choose to become a ninja after graduation?"
"I have no attachment to this. I am just a maid of Miss Xianglan. I don't want to become a ninja."
"I see." The dreams of the children of Konoha Village since childhood are nothing special in the eyes of the people under the Fusagi family.
This is a difference in understanding and cognition. Although ninjas make money, they are very dangerous and their status is not very high.
In the secular world, truly powerful people would not set becoming a ninja as their goal. The special case of Gushan Bushui was very rare.
"I was overly concerned. I asked you to come because I have something to ask."
"Please tell me! I'm just a maid. I don't know much. The questions I can answer are very limited. Please cherish the opportunity to ask questions."
"Is there a limit to the number of times?"
"It's a time limit. At this time, even the maid should rest."
"Okay then!" Mizuki shrugged pretending to be relaxed, and then asked,
"What should I do next?"
"Increase your strength. If something happens, don't die."
"A salty ninja like me has basically no chance to go to the front line, and is there a risk of death?"
"I don't know. I only know that the order I accepted is to assist Miss Xianglian in avoiding all possible risks..."
"Where does the risk come from, Konoha Village?"
"It's all risks! No matter inside or outside the village!"
"Wait, you mean..." Mizuki was horrified. There are still forces in the village that would be detrimental to the Furugi family. Moreover, is there a risk of Konoha Village being attacked?
This is an accident that has never happened in all previous ninja wars. Will such a day really happen in the future? In an instant, the terror of the Nine-Tails attack on the village and the continuous fire more than three years ago made Mizuki wake up.
"Why?"
"I don't know. The young master's original words were, 'Let's not get involved in matters between ninjas, let alone internal fighting?'"
"Infighting?" Shuimu's heart was filled with turmoil. Indeed, with the strength of Konoha Village, none of the five major ninja villages have ever invaded. If it weren't for internal problems, the Nine-Tails attack on the village and the annihilation of the Uchiha clan would never have happened.
The only one who defeated the Leaf Village was the Konoha ninja himself. Mizuki, who was originally quite satisfied with his situation, was suddenly horrified by his own thoughts.
"Orochimaru, is he a 'fellow' or an 'outsider'?"
"I'm just a maid, and I don't know much about such big figures as the 'Sannin'. If you insist on asking, you can try asking the young master."
"Then... forget it." He touched his arm unconsciously. When the Tiger Curse Seal was activated, the heat that swept through his body was still lingering in his mind. That kind of power, even now Both water and wood have a lingering season in their hearts.
Moreover, Mizuki has a feeling that if he tries to activate it again now, it won't be the same level of enhancement as before.
"It is something whose stronger the body is, and the more terrifying the blessing, even..." The cold energy pouring into the body from the outside world
"Chakra" almost made Mizuki get lost in the false power and couldn't look back. The powerful temptation is so hard to resist.
It's been so long, but Mizuki still can't forget it.
"Then... my question is gone. By the way, is the child inside Xiaochun a boy or a girl?"
"Female!" After saying that, the human face in front of him disappeared. Mizuki, who realized that his opportunity to ask questions had run out, couldn't help but laugh.
"It's a daughter, that's fine! If the daughter of Major Governor Gu Shan is as outstanding... no, even if she is half as outstanding, I will be satisfied." Thinking that he will become a father soon, Mizuki's heart can't help but surge up. An inexplicable feeling of pride.
When a man grows up and becomes an upright man, having children is an important step. At the same time, in the small western-style building a few hundred meters away, Yu Huo withdrew the chakra he had released, put on dark sunglasses again, and covered the red eyes and Sharingan in his eye sockets.
Not far away, Xiang Phosphorus, who was wearing pajamas and drinking cold boiled water, asked: "Are you done?"
"Sorry, Miss Xianglan, I woke you up."
"Who is looking for you?"
"Teacher Mizuki!"
"It's him!" As time goes by, the power of Kagura's inner eye, the secret technique of Xiang Lian's bloodline talent, begins to appear. What limits its performance is no longer perception, but mental memory. Many familiar chakra fluctuations have been It is no longer possible to correspond to individuals one by one. Except for important people, Xiang Phosphorus no longer tries to track the details of everyone's actions.
"What did you talk about?"
"How to live peacefully, and whether the eldest son or daughter I will have is."
