The last meal was tasteless and ended hastily.

Shen Si is not a bitch of the Holy Mother, he has the stupid idea of ​​avenging someone's revenge if he doesn't eat a meal, at most, he will leave more food and travel expenses when he leaves.

Fei Duan didn't even think what the old man said was serious!

Why don't you just die as a son?

In this world, when will no one die?

After eating, Shinji and Hidan returned to their room to rest. The old man's daughter-in-law brought the child back to her mother's house, probably because she was afraid of being gossiped.

Before I knew it, the night was getting dark.

Shinji opened his eyes suddenly, ready to sneak out quietly.

What surprised him was that there was a person sitting outside the door, who seemed to be waiting for him.

"It's late at night, where are you going, little brother?"

"Huh? Are you waiting for me?"

Shinji was a little puzzled, but under the reflection of the moonlight, the old man's face was very calm.

"You and your companion should be ninjas, right?" The old man didn't answer Shinji's question, but asked himself in a positive tone.

"Our village is so remote that even caravans seldom pass by, so there are very few unfamiliar faces. Not long after you entered the village, I hid and began to observe you."

Shen Si slightly raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, "Why?"

The old man sighed, "I'm afraid."

Shinji seemed to understand something thoughtfully.

Then I heard the old man continue to say: "I'm not sure whether your arrival will bring harm to this village, so knowing that you may be very dangerous people, I can only take the initiative to ask, and then pretend I don't know anything to bring you back."

"Are you afraid that a tragedy like that will happen again?"

"Well, we have managed to live a stable life for a few years. Youdao is once bitten by a snake and afraid of well ropes for ten years. How can we not be afraid."

"So you're standing here, trying to stop me?" Shinji was a little curious.

"I, a bad old man, can stop anything." The old man shook his head, "It's just a gamble."

"If you win the bet, go back to sleep. If you lose the bet, you just can't sleep. At my age, I have already seen it."

Shen Si nodded, "No wonder you found an excuse to send the family out after dinner, for fear of hurting the family?"

The old man remained silent. In fact, he originally wanted to stabilize the two outsiders, and then took his daughter-in-law and grandson to hide outside for two days.

But it is not safe outside, and there are often wild animals and robbers.

They are a combination of old and young, and the only young and strong is a woman, who can't survive any jackals, tigers and leopards.

And after this short half day of contact, after several deliberate trials, he found that the situation might not be that bad.

Although the other guy is not a good person at first glance, the person in front of him has been restrained and has stopped his companion's seizures several times. This all proves that the person in front of him is an existence that can communicate normally, and there is a certain probability that he is not People who kill indiscriminately.

That's why he chose to stay by himself to find out the other party's intentions.

Old but strong, this is a sensible man!

And very brave!

This is Shinji's evaluation of it.

In this world, the most fucking thing is that ordinary people can't control their own destiny, and it only depends on whether the "uninvited guest" brings good intentions or malice.

"Don't worry, I have no interest in your place, we will leave after dawn."

"The old man, I feel relieved, ouch, it's so late, sleep, sleep."

After getting a reassuring answer, the old man finally breathed a sigh of relief.

As for why the other party suddenly ran out at this late hour and what he was going to do, he didn't even ask, and he didn't want to know at all.

How could he not understand the truth that the more he knew, the sooner he would die.

He only needs to make sure that the other party is not malicious, and that is enough and satisfying.

But at this moment, Shinji suddenly asked, "Is the story you told at night true?"

"Every sentence is true."

"Then do you hate those ninjas? Or have you ever thought about taking revenge on them?"

"At my age, does it matter if I hate it or not? Can I take orphans and widows to find someone to fight for my life?"

The old man gave a wry smile, and then continued, "I never thought about revenge or not, and I didn't dare to think about it. Now I just want to spend my old age peacefully and help take care of my children when they grow up."

"Understood."

Shinji nodded slightly, then walked away in a certain direction.

But looking at Shinji's back, there was a flash of pain in the old man's eyes.

Obviously, how can the pain of losing a child be as understated as he just said?

But even if it is painful and unwilling, so what?

The old man did inquire about the identities of those ninjas afterwards, but then what?

The two groups of ninjas who brought disaster to the village back then were Kirigakure spies from the country of water, and the other were Konoha ninjas who came here to chase the enemy.

And the huge fireball that killed his son was released by a Konoha ninja who wanted to kill enemies and protect his companions!

Being accidentally killed by the guardian ninja of his own country, as a citizen of the country of fire, what can he do with a bad old man?

As for the compensation afterwards, it was nothing more than helping them rebuild the village, as well as some compensation for money and food.

And those who died... died.

This is war!

So things like revenge, they dare not even think about it.

For ninjas, there is only fear and nothing else.

Even if he took ten thousand steps back, who should he seek to avenge this hatred?

Are those ninjas who happened to come here by chance?

Or the Konoha ninja who unleashed a fireball and killed his son by mistake?

Standing in the position of the former, because it is during the war, and the two sides are hostile. So naturally they don't care about the life and death of the villagers in the enemy country.

From the standpoint of the latter, one must go all out to fight against the enemy. If one is restrained because one is afraid of affecting others, one may end up killing one's companions or even oneself!

Looking at it this way, it seems that no one is wrong.

So who is at fault?

Probably... this damn world!

"Today's moon...is really round."

"Go away! You are blocking the way of the uncle."

As soon as the old man raised his head in admiration, he immediately heard the sound of the door opening and the unceremonious repelling from behind him.

The old man shivered instantly when he was frightened, and quickly turned around to see Hidan's dead face as if he had just finished eating.

"You...why did you come out?" The old man quickly changed his smile and came out and asked.

Because he suddenly realized a serious problem, that is, the 'Tiger' who is pretending to be a tiger... just went out, and happened to be away!

And without the 'tiger' to stop him, how would he, an old fox who had no threat of force, face a wild wolf that wanted to kill him before?

Long live!

Let's hurry up and say a few good words. This guy really doesn't look very smart, and he might be able to fool him.

However, what the old man did not expect was that the other party seemed not interested in him at all.

"You two have been beeping at the entrance of the station for so long, do you think I'm deaf? Get out of the way quickly, where is he going?" Fei Duan said impatiently.

The old man sold Shen Si decisively, pointing in one direction, "Over there!"

"Next time, dare to say that my brain is not working well, and kill your whole family, do you hear me?"

After glaring fiercely, Fei Duan hurriedly chased after him, and his figure quickly disappeared into the night.

The old man who had been warned also wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, then as if he suddenly thought of something, he gritted his teeth, turned around and walked outside.
