Chapter 322: Destined fate?
·
Zhong Er Shi Bing Wo Bu Zhi
Ling remembered the person named Kurama Huoshu. Although he was very young at the time, he could clearly understand that that person was different from the gentleness and tolerance he only showed to his own people. He was a person who could make people learn from others. Someone who feels warmth in their bones.
But such a person died early because of a ridiculous, obvious, and even low-level mistake.
Ling still remembered the last time she saw him, on a sunny winter morning. The man looked at his younger sister playing in the field with a gentle smile, and asked him in a gentle voice why he didn't go with them -
"The person in charge of escorting the clan has left for something. If I go there too, won't I be neglecting Brother Huoshu? Besides, I'm not very interested in this kind of role-playing game that requires me to withdraw my strength. I prefer actual combat."
"Actual combat..." Kurama Huoju smiled helplessly, "Xiao Ling is indeed a very special child - but in my opinion, at Ling's age, he should play more and talk and laugh."
Ling turned his head and glanced at Kurama Huoshu, then turned back after a moment, "People who have been on the battlefield and hold butcher knives are no longer worthy of being called children... and in my capacity, I shouldn't do these things that are unsteady. .”
"We've only been on the battlefield once, there's no need to be so serious, right?" Kurama Huoshu laughed a little, but looking at Ling's serious expression, he just reached out and rubbed Ling's hair in the end, "Sure enough, Xiao Ling is me. The kind of child who is the most difficult to cope with...
Speaking of which, it’s not interesting for us to sit like this. Is there anything Xiaoling is curious about?Although I'm not a few years older than you, I've still been to more places and experienced more things than you. Let's talk casually, shall we? "
"Hmm...I heard that Brother Huoshu went to the Kingdom of Ghosts to do a mission before the truce period came?"
[No matter how serious you are, you are still a child. 】Looking at Ling who finally looked like a child in front of him, Kurama Huoshu snickered in his heart, but it was not shown on his face, "Is Xiao Ling very interested in the prophecy of the witch from the Kingdom of Ghosts?"
"Yes, I can't figure out how to make those people tell a person who has never met before a prophecy that is destined to happen and the result will definitely be bad."
Ling's expression was still serious, and he didn't notice Kurama Huo Shu's expression that had begun to stiffen, "So is it possible that the prophecy is just an excuse, and the prophecy that can be realized every time is actually just the ghost country manipulating behind the scenes? Brother Huo Shu, go ahead If you go to the Kingdom of Ghosts, you should be able to learn some inside information, right?"
"Ahem, Xiao Ling, let's just say, is there a possibility that it is not difficult to predict the future?"
Kurama Huo Shu looked at Ling Na's eyes as if he were looking at a fool, and could only brace himself up and start cheating, "Actually, brother, I can do this too? Does Xiao Ling believe in the established destiny? If so -"
"I do not believe."
"Ha, haha...are you so decisive? You will make my brother very embarrassed."
"It doesn't matter, it's just the two of us here anyway, no one can hear us."
Kurama Kaoki raised his hand and touched the back of his neck, sighing, the look of helplessness on his face getting thicker, "What a ruthless little guy...can I hear the reason?"
"I believe that in one's life, apart from the inability to choose one's origin, all development depends on one's response to certain things. Nothing is predetermined."
Ling was silent for a moment, "If anything is said to be a given, it is only the enemy's calculations against you. At least those calculations, no matter the method, are all intended to harm you."
"What about relatives? The closeness between relatives is a given, right? After all, blood is thicker than water—"
"Not necessarily. I will be kind to them, but I don't know what factors will affect this behavior and what kind of emotions will be returned, so there is no set decision."
Ling gave Kurama Huoshu a strange look, "Furthermore, although our clan has always been protective and united, in the current world, there are many cases where children are exchanged for food. To say that relatives are destined to take care of each other is just a generalization. That’s all.”
Kurama Huo Shu was completely silent this time. After a while, he spoke out under Ling's urging eyes, "...Should I say that Xiao Ling is a qualified heir or should I say that Xiao Ling is indifferent by nature - you are indeed that It’s the child that gives me the most headaches.”
"Well - thanks for the compliment?"
"This is not a compliment..." Kurama Huo Shu sighed, his face became a little more serious, "But Xiao Ling, I wasn't joking with you just now. Prophecy is not a difficult thing.
You see, sometimes we feel that some scenes seem familiar, right?This is actually a kind of prediction of the future, so the difficulty is not the prediction, but how to remember this prediction and then express it completely. "
Ling said nothing, but his expression was clearly full of disapproval and suspicion.
"Oh my... Then Xiao Ling, do you want to give it a try?"
"Try?" Ling tilted his head, "What?"
"Of course it's a glimpse into the future," Kurama Huoju smiled, "After all, with the intervention of strong spiritual power, it is very easy to induce one's own spirit to see the future. What do you think, do you want to give it a try? Our clan is very good at it. In this regard.”
Ling frowned slightly. He didn't believe this kind of thing, and he didn't want other people's chakra to have any impact on him, so he wanted to refuse immediately, but Kurama Huoju suddenly gave a bitter smile -
"Well, it's normal if you don't believe it. After all, this matter is ridiculous... After all, how can those established fates be broken? Haha... Just think I'm joking, let's talk about something else. ?”
But looking at Kurama Huo Shu's sad expression, Ling couldn't help but said in a strange way, "...let me try."
"Eh?"
"Isn't your destiny unbreakable? I don't believe in that kind of thing, so let me try, and I also want to know what will happen to me in the future."
"Oh, Xiao Ling still has a gentle side... Okay, then relax a little bit." Kurama Huo Shu smiled and raised his hand to touch Ling's forehead, "Shall we start then?"
Ling long ago couldn't remember what he saw under Kurama Huoshu's movements at that time. He only remembered that he seemed to be frightened by something and developed a high fever that day.
After that, Kurama Huo Shu was also scolded by the leader of the Kurama clan. He came to him full of apologies to apologize, and said something else - [My fate has ended here, I hope yours will not...]
[Speaking of which, Brother Huoshu seemed to have been in a very sad state at that time - it was inevitable to make such low-level mistakes when going on missions in that state...]
Ling let out a long breath and said, "That's when I started focusing on physical skills, right? Does the current situation count as a break from the predetermined fate?"
"What other inexplicable words did you say?"
"It's nothing, I just remembered something..." Ling turned around and chuckled, "Zhaoyan should be relaxed now, right?"
Uchiha Akihiko felt the urging glances from all directions from his tribe, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, "No, it's probably difficult... By the way, what did you do to me this time? You make people cry every year when we say goodbye - —You’re too bad.”
"What are you talking about?" Ling looked distressed, "I obviously care about her."
"That doesn't look like he is cared about..." Uchiha Akihiko crossed his arms and glanced at the direction where the Kurama clan was leaving, "By the way, hasn't Brother Huoshu been dead for several years? Why are you mentioning him again? ?”
"...because Brother Huoshu wrote me a letter before he died, hoping that I could take care of more silver flowers for him while the relationship between the two clans is still on good terms, and it would be best to send him a gift. A gift to celebrate coming of age.”
Ling shrugged slightly, "But I didn't expect that after so many years, Yinhua still cares about it."
"How could you not care?" Uchiha Akihiko also sighed, "After all, a genius like Huoshu died because of a low-level mistake, which also caused the team's mission to fail and brought losses to the family...
Even though it has nothing to do with Yinghua, in order to calm the emotions of the clan members, he probably suffered a lot of criticism under the arrangement of the clan, right? "
"But isn't that the most correct thing?" Ling turned back, "Those are just weak words, they won't really hurt herself - and Yinhua should understand that Brother Huoshu has always loved her. "
"Do you think there are many weirdos like you who are shameless and willing to be criticized and still enjoy it? What? He suddenly laughed so disgustingly.
Ling coughed a few times to stop his laughter, stretched out his voice and took steps, "No, it's nothing - I just suddenly felt that I was really lucky."
But such a person died early because of a ridiculous, obvious, and even low-level mistake.
Ling still remembered the last time she saw him, on a sunny winter morning. The man looked at his younger sister playing in the field with a gentle smile, and asked him in a gentle voice why he didn't go with them -
