On the way back to the tribe, Shen Yue was particularly well-behaved and nestled in Ban's arms.
After all, she was just a little child, with beautiful eyebrows and eyes, and a delicate figure. At this moment, she was lying softly and obediently on Ban's chest, as delicate as a reserved and proud cat.
In Ban's view, the young girl was as fragile as Nu Luo, and she needed him to take care of her with all his heart and soul to grow up well.
From a small, soft, fragile baby as big as his palm, to a delicate and lovely little girl like a jade doll, this child seemed to have grown up in his arms.
Now think about it, even Quanna didn't stay in his arms for so long. In the long-faded memory, the little Quanna quickly broke away from his protection and rushed to the bloody battlefield.
Although he had never had a family, Ban seemed to always experience the loneliness of being a parent. Perhaps, this is what is called the eldest brother is the father and the teacher is the father.
Looking at the quiet and sensible appearance of Shen Yue in his arms, Ban's eyes unconsciously brought a trace of loneliness.
How long can he hold this child like this?
Perhaps, this is something that every parent will worry about.
"Shen Yue, do you want to go back to the ninja school?"
"Hey, is it really possible?"
This sudden question really surprised Shen Yue. She was also troubled about whether she should go back to school, but after thinking about it, she was still prepared to stay in the clan land obediently, because she instinctively felt that Ban would not agree to this.
But now, Ban actually took the initiative to let her go back to school, which was too unexpected for her, which made her subconsciously ask back:
"But, wouldn't that be dangerous?"
"Don't worry, I'm here."
Ban gently stroked the girl's soft long hair, with a kind and compassionate look in his eyes. Shen Yue curled up in his arms like a cub, at least at this moment, his heart was calm and satisfied.
Shenyue's guess was actually not wrong. Madara actually wanted to keep her under his care forever. His arms would be her eternal safe harbor, keeping out all the wind and frost.
However, no matter how young a child is, there will be a day when he grows up. Madara also understands that Shenyue will leave his arms one day and have her own life.
"I talked to Hashirama for a while."
During the time when Madara and Hashirama disappeared, beating up Sarutobi Hiruzen actually only accounted for a small part.
Although he was annoyed by the monkey's coveting and pestering of Shenyue, after all, which adult would get angry with a child? Therefore, Madara just beat the monkey violently until he fainted, which was just a small lesson for him.
However, just when Madara finished his work and was about to turn around and go back to find Shenyue, Hashirama, who had been begging not to kill the monkey, suddenly called him from behind, and his expression changed from pitiful begging for mercy to serious and solemn. He knew that this was the look of Hashirama ready to talk business.
"Madara, have you been too concerned about Shenyue recently? Don't you think it's a bit too much?"
"....."
Uchiha Madara's expression gradually became colder. He didn't want to answer this question, so he chose to remain silent and prepared to leave without looking back, but Hashirama chased him relentlessly, as if he was determined to get an answer, and chased after him and asked:
"Is it because of Izuna?"
Madara's anger burst out instantly, he immediately turned around and grabbed Hashirama's collar and punched him hard in the face.
"Don't mention Izuna to me!"
When talking about Izuna, Madara's eyes would flash with an unstoppable flame.
The blazing flames danced wildly, roaring to devour the reckless guy in front of him, but Hashirama neither struggled nor dodged. His black eyes, as bright as a mirror, stared straight at Uchiha Madara, faithfully reflecting his extremely ferocious posture at the moment.
"Madara, Shenyue is not Izuna, we can't save those who have passed away."
"Shut up!"
Madara roared hysterically, and the sound was as miserable as the howl of a wolf forced into a desperate situation.
He felt more and more suffocated in his heart, as if his chest was torn apart and he felt a dull pain. Under the influence of anger and frenzy, he beat Hashirama with all his strength, who did not resist this evil act, as if only violence could relieve some of the anxiety and depression in his heart.
But the more he beat, the more he suffered in his heart.
After punching Hashirama several times in a row, Madara, who finally calmed down, had to admit that he was actually right.
Hashirama, who was beaten even more horribly than the unconscious Sarutobi Hiruzen, quickly got up. His strong recovery ability allowed him to smash the pig head in an instant.The swollen face returned to its original appearance, except for a bruise on the forehead, which was caused by Madara's extremely angry punch when talking about Izuna.
"Children will grow up eventually, and so will Shenyue, and she will definitely grow up to be a very beautiful, very capable and reliable adult."
Patting the shoulder of his best friend who was frozen in place like a sculpture, the victim Senju Hashirama, who had just been beaten beyond recognition, comforted Uchiha Madara who was very upset.
"Madara, we are all old, but the children of Konoha are still young."
Senju Hashirama sighed, his sincere hope made his eyes clear and his voice particularly reassuring. Uchiha Madara's frantic heart, struggling on the edge of madness, also calmed down little by little because of this look and voice.
"They will surpass us one day and become better than the older generation. We two old guys, just watch quietly."
......
Late at night, when Shen Yue finished washing up, holding a black cat doll in her arms, she was sleeping soundly on the bed, ready to end the day. After a small click, the door of her bedroom was suddenly opened from the outside.
Tao Hua, wearing pajamas, walked in quietly. Seeing that Shen Yue didn't wake up, she also lay down on the only small bed in the room. The smell of soap mixed with the indelible smell of blood, with her arrival, also permeated the bedroom and stained between the bed quilt.
A warm hand gently embraced Shen Yue's shoulders and held her in the same warm arms. Tao Hua's cheek soon came over, gentle and warm, with a familiar and nostalgic smell.
In her sleep, Shen Yue unconsciously stretched out a small hand and placed it on Taohua's arm, as if she was responding to the hug.
Lying in the unusually warm quilt, Taohua was reluctant to fall asleep. She looked down at Shen Yue with satisfaction, and her love almost overflowed.
As long as she looked at this lovable face, no matter how painful and embarrassing the matter was, it became bearable.
Abandoning the pain of being targeted and used by the tribe members that day, and the unhappiness of being stained with blood when executing spies, Taohua rubbed Shen Yue's cheek affectionately, kissed her forehead gently, and said good night to Shen Yue in a volume that only she could hear:
"Shen Yue, sleep with your mother today."
When the two breaths in the room gradually sank into a steady state, Uchiha Huhe, who had been standing behind the door, unconsciously raised an upward arc at the corner of his mouth, and the warm and bright feeling like the sun ignited in his heart.
From being alone at first to being a family of three now, before he knew it, this place was becoming more and more like home.
Just as Huo He was moving his feet and preparing to return to his bedroom, a thunderous thought flashed through his mind at a high speed, forcing him to stop and unable to move any more.
No, this is obviously my home, why should I leave!
Huo He carefully pushed open the door of Shen Yue's bedroom, peeking inside furtively, and seeing the little gap left on the small bed, his heart began to stir, and he made up many reasons to try to convince himself:
What if this evil Qianshou suddenly attacks Shen Yue?
That's right, I'm doing this to protect Shen Yue, and I'm definitely not envious!
Countless reasons tempted him to move forward, and finally, Huo He bravely entered the room like a big cat, squeezing himself into the little gap left on the small bed.
This was not an easy task. Huo He leaned half of his body on the edge of the bed, and the other half squeezed out. But when he stretched out his hand and hugged Tao Hua and Shen Yue beside him, he was still very satisfied even though his sleeping position was so awkward.
Two adults and a child were squeezed on the small bed. Shen Yue, who was hugged in the middle, felt that she was about to be crushed. But she was tired all day and couldn't wake up at all. Otherwise, she would see her parents squeezing in frantically.
In the dream, there were clearly two big bears pushing and squeezing her.
Shen Yue raised her hand slowly and hard, trying to push away the arm of the bear in front of her so that she could move her body that was squeezed as heavy as lead. But suddenly, a pair of powerful bear claws suddenly cushioned her back, and the two bears hugged her tightly as if they were surrounded.
So, Shen Yue, who was hugged by two furry and warm bears, felt that she was not only about to be suffocated, but also about to be killed by the heat.
Ugh, why is it so hot and crowded!
Shen Yue, who was about to be crushed, struggled for a while., finally, I don't know whether it was because she gave up struggling completely or because she was really squeezed to faint, she actually fell into a deep sleep.
Not only that, in the second half of the night, she seemed to have a dream of eating fruit and playing with these two bears, which was really weird.
The next morning, Shen Yue, who had slept well, talked to Huo He and Tao Hua about the strange dream she had the day before at the dining table, and both of them showed very embarrassed expressions.
However, the arrival of a piece of heavy news soon broke the breakfast time of the three people, and even this strange dream and embarrassment became unattended -
After about a month of travel, the princess of the Uzumaki clan finally arrived in Konoha from the Land of Whirlpools!
