The Kingdom of Rain is located in a basin, with the plateau of the Kingdom of Earth to the northwest and the mountains across the Kingdom of Wind to the southwest.
The warm and moist air currents blowing from the oceans to the north and south of the Ninja Continent were trapped here after arriving in the Land of Rain.
The cold wind from the northwest passes through the gap between the plateau and the mountains and meets the warm and moist air flow in the Land of Rain.
This is also the reason why it rains heavily all year round in the Rain Country.
Rumble~
In the evening, the sky was covered with dense clouds, and lightning pierced the haze in the sky like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue.
A small village at the junction of the Kingdom of Rain and the Kingdom of Wind.
Because of the war, the villagers here have temporarily moved elsewhere.
Under the dim sky, only one house still had its lights on.
The warm yellow bedside lamp illuminates the small bedroom.
Outside the window, the rain was quietly weaving a veil like smoke, enveloping the heaven and earth.
A little boy with silver-gray hair and a pale face was nestled in the woman's arms, staring intently at the comic book in the woman's hand.
He didn't know most of the words in the comic book yet. He could only look at the illustrations and imagine the scenes in the book from the woman's words.
"The little duck swam and swam like this, and finally landed on the shore and found the mother duck."
The woman had just finished talking about how the little duck had found its mother duck, and the little boy's arms holding the woman were obviously a little tighter.
"Ahem~" The little boy looked in pain and coughed heavily.
The woman immediately put down the comic book in a panic, patted his back with her palm, and said with a distressed face:
"Did it start to hurt again? Dad should be back soon. There will be medicine later."
The little boy nodded with a pale face, raised his head and looked at the woman and said, "Mom, am I going to die?"
The woman shook her head, with a forced smile on her lips, caressing his back and said:
"No, as long as you have a good rest, you will get better soon."
The little boy's eyes were filled with mist, he stared into the woman's eyes seriously, and said with a cry:
"When I die, you must give birth to a child as good as me and stay with you for me."
The woman felt as if something was stuck in her throat and held the little boy in her arms.
Tears flowed slowly, and he pretended to smile:
"Don't think too much, you will get better soon..."
"Ahem~"
Listening to the weak coughing of the little boy in her arms, the woman felt only heart-wrenching pain.
The little boy suffered from a rare disease. The old doctor in the village was helpless and couldn't even find out the cause.
At the beginning, the conditions at home were not very good. I thought that if I took care of myself slowly, the disease would get better on its own.
But when the little boy just turned three years old, his condition deteriorated rapidly.
Can't walk normally, can't blow wind, can't bask in the sun.
It happened that the Third Ninja War started during this period, and all the villagers left.
But the parents of this family chose to stay in order to accompany their children on their last journey.
After a while, I heard heavy footsteps coming from outside the house.
"Squeak~"
"Dad is here to buy medicine, and you will feel better soon."
After the woman heard the sound of the door opening, hope appeared in her eyes, and she quickly stood up to greet her.
However, when the woman came to the living room, she saw that her husband was already soaked by the rain.
He stood at the door with empty hands, his eyes were red and his face was haggard.
The man just lowered his head, as if he was afraid to look at his wife.
The hope in the woman's eyes faded and she whispered:
"Have people from other villages moved away too?"
The man didn't reply. He slowly squatted down, put one hand on his knees and the other on his forehead, and nodded silently.
The woman pursed her lips, took a deep breath, and then swallowed:
"It doesn't matter if you can't buy it, just go and see the kids."
The man sighed silently, stood up holding the shoe cabinet, and dragged his tired body to the bedroom door.
Immediately he raised his head, took a deep breath, patted his cheek gently, smoothed his messy hair, cheered up, and walked in with a smile on his face.
The little boy had been staring at the bedroom door. When he saw his father walking in with a relaxed look, he immediately opened his hands and shouted:
"dad."
The man came to the bedside, wiped his right hand on his pants without leaving any trace, and then stretched out his hand to gently rub the little boy's silver-gray hair.
The little boy squinted his eyes, a cheerful smile on his face.
The woman leaned against the bedroom door, looking at this scene, feeling slightly sad.
He gently wiped away the tears that were about to overflow and said softly:
"I'm tired after a long day. I'm going to cook."
Hearing this, the man retracted his right hand, turned around and walked to his wife, held her hand, looked at her belly and said:
"I'll go, you have to take care of yourself."
The woman looked down slightly, then nodded.
The man looked back at the little boy deeply, then silently walked to the kitchen and started preparing dinner.
"Da da da......."
There was a heavy sound of chopping vegetables in the kitchen.
"Woo~"
The wind picked up, and it seemed like someone was pushing the window hard, making a loud rattling sound.
The rain curtain shook in the wind, becoming denser and more powerful, and it became a heavy downpour.
The originally hazy water vapor seemed to be blown away by the wind, and the world outside the window became dim and clear.
The man put down the kitchen knife, came to the kitchen window, and stretched out his hand to close the window.
Suddenly, the man's eyes narrowed and he saw abnormal flames lighting up in the mountains and forests in the distance.
"Damn it, this is a ninja's ninjutsu."
The man quickly closed the window and turned off all the lights in the room.
The woman came out of the little boy's bedroom and asked with confusion on her face: "What's wrong?"
The man looked solemn and said, "Hide, I see ninjas fighting in the distance."
The two of them quickly started working together. The man was responsible for closing the doors and windows and drawing the curtains, while the woman was responsible for wrapping the little boy in a quilt and putting him in the small closet.
"No matter what happens later, you can't say anything, you know."
Although the little boy didn't understand what happened, he nodded sensibly.
It was pitch dark in the closet, and the little boy felt a little scared.
Fortunately, there was still a slight crack in the closet door, and the little boy could see the scene in the bedroom through the crack.
He only saw his mother leaving the bedroom in a hurry and closing the bedroom door.
After the sound of closing the door disappeared, the whole room fell into a deathly silence.
Time passed bit by bit.
The little boy gradually became sleepy and fell asleep slowly.
"boom!"
A violent kick on the door woke up the little boy from his sleep.
But he remembered what his mother had told him before, no matter what happened, he couldn't go out.
Immediately, he shrank his body into the quilt he was wrapped in, staring at the gap in the closet.
But I heard the sound of rummaging through boxes and cabinets and unfamiliar conversations outside the bedroom.
"What the hell is the weather here? It rains every now and then.
It rains heavily or lightly, and I almost get moldy. "
"It's already settled here. It's close to the Kingdom of Wind and we can still see sunny days a few times."
"Find something to eat. I'm going to vomit after eating the Bing Liang Pills."
"Captain, there is someone here. Look at the vegetables on the cutting board in the kitchen that have just been cut."
"Tozuo, use your sensory ninjutsu to check them out, find them out, and ask for information."
"Okay Captain."
"My dear ninjas, I'm sorry, I just slept for a while and didn't notice your arrival."
Vaguely, the little boy heard his father's familiar voice.
