Chapter 37 The Trial of the Waterfall
Hulalala...
Tianwei resisted the idea of paced back and forth, stood in the shadow of the woods with his hands on his back, and from time to time he looked up at the bell sitting in front of the waterfall.
Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore and asked to Chirabi who was leaning against the tree, "Has it been a little long? There would be no problem?"
"It's just two minutes passed, you're too anxious, Bageya Road~Konnoya Road~" Qirabi said disapprovingly.
Tianwei looked at the watch on his wrist: "Yes..."
Looking for a piece of dry land in the lawn and sitting down, Tianwei tried to calm down and observe the situation of the bell.
Fortunately, as a ninja, it was common to adjust the mentality for the sake of tasks. After a few breaths, Tianwei's impatience quickly calmed down.
After a while, the bell, who seemed to be in a meditation state, suddenly opened his eyes and coughed twice in pain.
"Ring, is it okay?"
Tianwei disappeared from the spot and came to Ling's side as soon as possible.
"Huh, Huh, I didn't...ahh, it's okay..."
He was obviously just sitting there motionless before, but at this moment, Lin was as tired as if he had run around Konoha Village for ten laps.
Tianwei squatted aside without saying a word, and waited until Ling gasped and continued to ask: "What happened?"
"Hey? Another me just appeared from the waterfall...she said she was my evil, and then said some other strange things..."
"Well, that's the other side of you, in other words, that's the real you~ If you can't defeat her, you can't learn to control the seven-tailed ones! Bageya Road~Konnoya Road~" Qirabi said behind the two of them.
"But... that 'me' is exactly the same as mine. Sometimes even the 'me' is the same as me. It's just that I'm fighting myself..."
"Wait, I feel a little dizzy..."
"Teacher Octopus, don't you have any tricks?"
"Well..." Kirabi was silent for a moment, then said: "This practice cannot be solved by fighting alone. I can only tell you so much."
"Hey? This is saying..."
"Well, don't be anxious, take it slowly." Tianwei put his hands on Ling's shoulders and asked him with a smile, "It's getting late, so let's stop here for the time being! Is there a place to provide us with accommodation? If not, can we set up a tent for us without being disturbed by wild beasts?"
Chirabi: "This is OK~There are all in the room~If you need it, there are even bathrooms~"
Tianwei: "That's easy. Put your backpack in the room and go to make dinner! I've been busy all day and I'm hungry! Lynn, what do you think?"
Ling was still feeling depressed by her previous failure and said uninterestedly: "Oh... Then I'll help."
Tianwei's smile suddenly stiffened, and his whole body felt chills. After a while, he barely spoke: "Uh... that, no need. Ling, you just finished practicing. Go take a shower and have a good rest. After dinner, I'll call you, go, go!"
Almost used the method of pushing the bell into the room. Tianwei turned around and looked behind him. After breathing a sigh of relief, he reached out and pointed with great enthusiasm: "Pleasant goat, it's you! Have mutton hotpot for dinner today!"
"My—!" Aries, who was pointed at by Tianwei, was shocked and turned around and ran away.
"Well... wolf meat is said to be sour and hard, not as delicious as dog meat, so I won't eat it. The big squid I used to cut a tentacle and cut it down. Oh, there is also a bear! I haven't eaten it before, so I can try it!"
Big Big Wolf exhaled like a general amnesty, lying softly on the ground, waving her tail, looking towards Tianwei, and Xiong Daxiong Er was so scared that he turned around and ran away just like Aries before.
"This kind of bird can cut off its wings and stew it. Pork is a regular dish every day. Wild pigs are more delicious. Orangutans... Forget it, it's not that monkeys can eat monkey brains. I have never eaten it..."
Tianwei pointed and pointed in front of a group of animals, and had a leadership style of "instructing the country and swaying the world". All the animals were so scared that they immediately scattered, fearing that Tianwei would be caught by him if he was a little late.
Tianwei was in a state of excitement, and he didn't notice that a big hand suddenly reached out from behind and held his fingers firmly.
Tianwei turned around in shock and saw that Kirabi's face was so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip into it.
“They are my friends and can’t be eaten!”
...
“Bangbangbang…”
It opened with a "creak" but it was not Tianwei who appeared outside the door, but Chirabi with a serious face.
"Please, please ask..."
Maybe I felt a little impatient when I heard Ling bit my tongue slowly. Qirabi, who had known what Ling would ask, gave her body to the side, revealing her constant struggle behind her, but Tianwei, who was still tied tightly by her tail: "This guy wants to eat my friend~ I had to tie him up~ Bageya Road~Konnoya Road~"
Hearing Qirabi's words, Ling frowned, put her hands on her waist and looked up at Tianwei who was raised high by the octopus's feet: "Really, brother, what are you doing?"
Tianwei quickly broke his mouth from a tentacle and explained loudly: "It's just a joke, it's really just a joke! Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
The sun was completely set, and the three of them sat around a bonfire and enjoyed dinner.
Dinner was very simple, with only vegetables and fish soup, which made Tianwei feel moved with the bowl.
There was obviously a group of mountain delicacies running around in front of me, but I could only watch and not eat them. What a cruel torture!
After dinner, Ling insisted on contracting all the cleaning tasks. Fortunately, the only thing she was bad was the cooking and nothing went wrong.
"Don't you go and say something to her?" Looking at Ling's back as she walked away from the room, Chirabi asked Tianwei beside her.
"No, this child has experienced a lot along the way, but he has hardly thought about it. He is still as innocent as a child. He is as kind as her and is not suitable to be a ninja at all. It is time for her to understand something and tell her directly that she probably won't take it to heart, and the truth obtained after hard thinking can be remembered in the heart."
Chirabi: "This is not the same as your performance in the afternoon. I thought you would be worried about her!"
"Although it's cruel, I have to do this in order to make her grow up. Just like a female eagle, who can learn to fly and kick her child off the cliff." Tianwei wrapped his hands in front of his chest, stood on the ground in front of the evening breeze, and let the evening breeze blow the ends of his hair. With those earnest words, Tianwei had a master's style at this moment.
Kirabi thought about it and said seriously: "Well, that is said to be a rumor."
Tianwei: "..."
Can it still make people show off happily?
...
Ling was lying on the bed holding a pillow, staring at the chandelier on the ceiling, and was fascinated by the sight.
In a trance, she seemed to be back in the afternoon when she was practicing at the Waterfall of Reality. Her eyes were gloomy and a figure that was exactly the same as herself came out of the waterfall in front of her.
"What's wrong? I miss my hometown when I see this waterfall? This waterfall is much smaller than the one at the entrance of Taki Hidden Village." The girl, who seemed to be a mirror, snorting, and a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Or do you think of the liar Yun Nin?"
"Hey? No, no..."
"No need to pretend, I am the real you deep in your heart. I know everything you think."
"Wait a minute, what are you talking about?"
"Isn't this clear? I am the thought deep in your heart. I'm always in your heart. Releasing me out to meet you is the function of this waterfall."
It was not until his dark mirror came close that Ling realized that although the other party walked out of the waterfall, there was no moist area on his body.
"Is this...illusion? If that's the case,...the solution!"
Ling made seals with both hands and tried to use the method Tianwei taught her to crack the illusion when she was practicing before, but the mirror image in front of her did not disappear.
"Hey? Why..."
"Are you still escaping? Accept reality, this is your true self!" The sarcasm in the mirror smile became stronger, "Scammers, all are liars! No one in this world can be believed, I only believe in myself!
"Whether it is the old guys in Taki Hidden Village, Ichisaki or the disabled old man named Danzo, whoever comes over is for the big bug! On the surface, he looks like he cares about you and is actually using sweet words to achieve his goals!
"The people in Konoha Village just don't know your true identity. You have also secretly looked at Minato's son, right? You must have never forgotten the look of the baby who cared for him. Because it was exactly the same as the people in Taki Hidden Village looked at you.
"As for the old man of the third generation of Naruto, even though he always looks kind in front of others, he actually has other plans in secret. The reason why he agrees to the Uchiha family to take you in is that he just wants to use the so-called family affection as a chain to control you. And..."
"Enough! Stop talking nonsense!"
Tears slid down from his face, Ling clasped her hands tightly, her fingernails pinched into the flesh, her knees bent slightly, and she looked ready to go.
"After saying that, will you still have to fight in the end? Say one thing in advance, you can't beat me because..."
Before the mirror was finished, Ling flashed and rushed to the pool.
With his hands skillfully formed seals, Ling planned to use the move he had practiced for a long time to gain the advantage.
When Tu looked up with some sense, Ling was surprised to find that the mirror image on the opposite side also rushed over, and the mark on his hand was exactly the same as himself.
"Wind Escape* Cui Lan Jade!"
"...Because, I am you! Fengdian* Cui Lanyu!"
The next battle ended with both sides using the same ninjutsu, illusion and even physical skills to equalize.
[Are those... really my real thoughts? Although I haven't thought about it before, I'm quiet now and think about it. For this world and my companions around me, I'm still deep in my heart...]
My arms holding the pillow tightened slightly, pressed on my chest, lowered my head slightly, and covered half of my face by the pillow, and my eyes exposed outside gradually became blurred.
