Therefore, life is not all fragile. If a person's will is as hard as a rock, then his life will also explode with amazing strength. "

After finishing speaking, Onoki's eyes turned to Sarutobi Hiruzen standing next to him: "Sarutobi, what do you think."

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded: "Yes, a person's will can break through the boundary between life and death.

When we want to protect something desperately, our lives will become extremely powerful.

Just like us in Konoha, the older generation of ninjas are like dead leaves in autumn, and the new generation of ninjas are like spring;

The buds of the day.

Wherever the leaves are flying, the fire is endless.

The fire of the dead leaves will continue to illuminate the village and cause new leaves to sprout. "

Although Sarutobi Hiruzen had a vague feeling that something was wrong with the Sandaime's metaphor of a person's will using clods and stones, but out of trust in the Sandaime, Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't think much about it.

After hearing the Sandaime asking for his opinion, Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke out the Will of Fire that he had kept in mind.

Ohnoki smiled and agreed after hearing this: "Yes, the power of protection is extremely powerful. When our will to protect the village is as hard as rock, then our lives are no longer fragile."

After listening to the words of Onoki and Sarutobi Hiruzen, Orochimaru was silent for more than ten seconds. Then, he raised his head and looked at Onoki: "Do you have a firm will? I know the Third Generation."

Seeing that Orochimaru understood, Onoki smiled happily: "It's good to understand, you are still young, there is no need to think deeply about these things, but it is precisely because of this that your genius can be revealed.

During the Chinese New Year, I plan to recruit a few disciples, Orochimaru, will you be my disciple? "

Onoki looked at Orochimaru expectantly.

This is a rare talent that has been rare in decades. If he can be carefully cultivated, he will definitely be a strong man capable of taking charge in the future.

Orochimaru was stunned. After a few seconds of silence, he nodded: "I am willing, teacher."

"Hahahaha, okay, it's settled. I will accept you as my disciple during the Chinese New Year. During this period, if you have anything you don't understand about cultivation, you can come and ask me. You don't have to be too restrained."

"I understand, teacher."

Uh-huh!

Suddenly, a masked ANBU member landed next to Onoki: "Hokage-sama, Sarutobi-sama, Mito-sama, please come over."

Mito Uzumaki, the wife of the first Hokage Senju Hashirama, is also one of the most senior people in Konoha at this stage.

Hearing that Uzumaki Mito was looking for him, Onoki looked at Orochimaru: "We're leaving first, Orochimaru, you should go back early." Kanshushu Novel Network;

After that, Onoki called to Sarutobi Hiruzen and led the ANBU ninjas directly out of the cemetery towards the Senju Clan;

Remove.

After the two left, the cemetery suddenly became quiet.

At the same time, it was getting dark.

Orochimaru held the white snake skin he picked up in his hand and walked slowly outside the cemetery.

After approaching the entrance of the cemetery, Orochimaru's eyes suddenly fell on the tombstone of the first Hokage Senju Hashirama.

There seemed to be a white shadow shaking there.

Orochimaru walked forward without hesitation, and sure enough, under Senju Hashirama's tombstone, there was a small white snake twenty to thirty centimeters long, entrenched here.

Orochimaru didn't have any fear, he directly picked up the white snake, and the white snake was in his hand without any resistance, everything seemed so natural.

Looking at the white snake in his right hand and the snake skin in his left hand, Orochimaru seemed to have figured out something.

However, just as he was about to leave the cemetery with the White Snake, he unexpectedly discovered that a young figure had appeared in front of the tombstone of the First Hokage.

His vibrant silver hair was blowing randomly in the breeze, and his breath was cold but made people want to get closer.

Looking at him, Orochimaru said unconsciously: "Hello."

Hagoromo Chihan looked down at Orochimaru and smiled: "Hello."

He had naturally noticed Orochimaru's arrival, but what he didn't expect was that Orochimaru would also notice his presence.

After all, Hagoromo Qianhan's aura is now hidden, just like a passerby, and it is difficult for ordinary people to notice his existence.

And Orochimaru actually noticed him now, which proves that Orochimaru is indeed different from ordinary people.

"Are you worshiping the First Hokage?"

Facing this unknown young elder brother, Orochimaru unconsciously used the honorific.

Hagoromo Qianhan nodded: "That's right."

No matter what, Senju Hashirama was one of the few friends of Hagoromo Chihan during the Warring States Period.

The souls of other friends from the Warring States Period have long since returned to the underworld, and Hagoromo Qianhan can basically see them when they meet.

But Senju Hashirama is different. Hashirama's soul may have disappeared, and Hagoromo Qianhan will not be able to see him again.

Therefore, this time when he had nothing to do and wandered to Konoha, he should come and see Hashirama, both emotionally and logically.

Chapter 369 The meaning of life

As his thoughts drifted away, Hagoromo Qianhan turned to look at Orochimaru: "It's already dark, what are you doing in the cemetery?"

Orochimaru looked respectful: "Come to pay homage to your father and mother."

"My parents passed away."

Hagoromo Chihan sighed. Unexpectedly, Orochimaru became an orphan at a young age in the original book. Now that he has traveled through time, Orochimaru is still an orphan.

Orochimaru nodded and said: "He died in the second ninja war that just ended."

"Died in the war between Dawn and Dawn?" Hagoromo Qianhan asked.

Orochimaru's eyes were a little lonely: "Yes."

"Then do you hate Mingxiao?" Yuyi Qianhan was a little curious.

In the original work, Orochimaru's parents didn't know who died at the hands of them, so Orochimaru didn't mention revenge.

However, now, it is clear that Orochimaru's parents died at the hands of the Dawn Empire.

Therefore, Hagoromo Chihan is very curious whether Orochimaru will seek revenge from the Dawn Empire next.

"I don't know." Orochimaru shook his head in confusion.

"Many people died in the Second Ninja World War, not only my parents, but also other ninjas from Konoha, the Kingdom of Dawn, Kirigakure, and Sunagakure. Many people died in this war. .

So, I really don’t understand, since war kills people, why do people still carry out war?

In war, everyone's life is so vulnerable.

The lives of my parents, the lives of Konoha, Dawn, Kirigakure, and Sunagakure ninjas, all of them are so fragile.

Since life is so fragile, what is the meaning of life? Does it only exist for war? "

At this moment, Orochimaru's mind was very confused.

The Third Generation and Sarutobi just told him that the meaning of life is to protect.

As long as a ninja can protect Konoha with determination, then the ninja's life will no longer be fragile.

However, the ninjas of Konoha must protect Konoha, the ninjas of Dawn must protect Dawn, the ninjas of Kirigakure must protect Kirigakure, and the ninjas of Sunagakure must protect Sunagakure.

Everyone must protect their own village, does that mean that war will inevitably break out, and the reason why ninjas can survive is

It is precisely because war requires ninjas to sacrifice their lives, so the lives of ninjas have meaning.

Hearing Orochimaru's question, Hagoromo Chihan couldn't help but be a little stunned.

Is this Orochimaru? At such a young age, he is able to think about this kind of problem. He is worthy of being the man in the original novel who can master the core technology.

After a while, Hagoromo Qianhan came back to his senses.

He looked at Orochimaru and sighed: "The meaning of life, this is really a meaningful question."

There was longing in Orochimaru's eyes: "Senior, can you tell me what the meaning of life is? Does it really exist just for war? Or does it exist for so-called protection?"

Before, he asked the Third Generation why life is so fragile. The Third Generation told him that as long as he has a will as hard as a stone to protect Konoha, life will no longer be fragile.

To put it another way, the Third Generation's words are actually saying that the meaning of life is to protect.

However, the guardian's answer did not completely convince Orochimaru.

In Orochimaru's heart, the meaning of life should not be so simple to express in words.

Hagoromo Chihan touched Orochimaru's head, and then looked into Orochimaru's eyes with gentle eyes: "What do you think the meaning of life is?"

Orochimaru pondered for a long time, then raised his head and said: "I don't know, but I feel that life should not exist for war."

Hagoromo Qianhan laughed: "I don't know, it's okay not to know."

Then he clasped his hands behind his back and looked at Senju Hashirama's tombstone: "The existence of life itself has no meaning, but as long as life exists, he will be able to discover meaningful things and fight for them throughout his life.

Just like Senju Hashirama, he believes that the meaning of his life is to build a village so that children can grow up healthy and safe in this village.

Thus, Konoha was born in the hands of Senju Hashirama, and he dedicated his life to this village.

The same goes for this little snake in your hand.

Today you found this little snake next to the tombstone, and I found you next to the tombstone,

Isn't this also a meaningful thing?

Therefore, the existence of life itself does not have any meaning, but if you have life, then you will be able to discover meaningful things. "

As soon as the words fell, Orochimaru's heart seemed to be filled with turmoil.

There is no doubt that Hagoromo Chihan's explanation of the meaning of life is very impactful to him.

The Third Generation told him that the meaning of life is to protect Konoha with determination, but the senior in front of him told him that the existence of life itself has no meaning.

These are two completely different concepts, but Orochimaru's subconscious told him that the statement of the senior in front of him was correct.

Slowly, Orochimaru began to think about the differences between the two concepts.

The stars were twinkling, and before I knew it, more than half an hour had passed.

"Yes! Senior is right!"

Suddenly, Orochimaru's eyes showed excitement.

The existence of life itself is meaningless, but only when life exists can meaningful things be discovered.
