Chapter 409: Yahiko is willing to help others

People are not machines. Uchiha Gin did not force Xiaonan to practice paper ninjutsu day and night. Some things will not be achieved if you rush.

"Xiaonan, you are in a critical period of growth now. Go to bed early. If you stay up late, you will become a small potato washboard."

Seeing that it was getting late, Uchiha Gin stepped forward and patted the little head of the girl who was concentrating on folding paper in the firelight.

Feeling the warmth from the top of her head, Xiaonan bit her lip and lowered her head, and responded inaudibly,

"Yeah."

"Gin San San! I did it!"

At this moment, Yahiko, who had been meditating at the entrance of the cave, ran in with an excited look on his face. He raised his hand, and a blue chakra light lit up slightly in his palm.

Uchiha Gin raised his eyelids in surprise. He didn't expect Yahiko's talent to be good. He learned how to refine chakra in just a few hours.

But it's true. How could a disciple who can be valued by Jiraiya be a mediocre person?

According to the trajectory of this timeline, if Yahiko continues to grow in a normal way, he will at least have the strength of an ordinary ninja.

"I'm ready, Gin-san, teach me powerful ninjutsu!"

In order to extract this little bit of chakra, Yahiko almost drained all his physical strength. Although he was panting, the light in his eyes was extremely bright, full of longing for ninjutsu.

"Aren't you afraid of taking a big step and pulling your balls?"

Uchiha Gin rolled his eyes and gave this ignorant kid a violent slap,

"Ouch~ what are you doing!"

Sure enough, his violent slap can trigger Kun's cry 100%, and Uchiha Gin nodded thoughtfully.

"Go learn how to make hand seals first."

"Ah?"

Ignoring the mournful Yahiko, Uchiha Gin turned around and waved to Konan who had been peeking at the two's conversation.

"Come here too."

"Yes!"

The two little ones knelt in front of Uchiha Gin, their eyes wide open, looking like curious babies.

"Hand seals are a way to control chakra. Normally, if you don't make hand seals, you can't release ninjutsu."

As Uchiha Gin spoke, he raised his hand and made hand seals slowly, demonstrating the specific contents of the twelve hand seals to Konan and the others.

The two people sitting upright pricked up their ears, not daring to miss any details.

"Okay, have you remembered them all?"

Soon, Uchiha Gin, who had finished explaining the twelve seals one by one, put down his hand,

"Remembered!"

The two nodded hurriedly, their minds full of the hand seals of the flower raccoon fox whistle. Looking at the two children with frowns, Uchiha Gin nodded,

"Okay, let's stop here for today, go and rest, tomorrow I will teach you the most basic and important ninjutsu of ninja."

Since the cave is relatively narrow, Uchiha Gin took the initiative to rest at the more spacious entrance of the cave, and Konan and Yahiko continued to stay in their old place,

but the blanket made of sacks had been thrown away by Uchiha Gin, and replaced with a warmer blanket. The ground was also compacted and lifted by him using earth escape, and two small stone beds were transformed.

Lying on the hard stone bed, wrapped in a warm blanket, Xiaonan did not feel any discomfort. Under the dim oil lamp, the girl's starry eyes were filled with a faint mist.

At this time, Xiaonan did not dare to fall asleep. She was worried that she would close her eyes and open them again, and return to the worn sack, shivering in the cold wind with thin clothes.

"Xiaonan."

Suddenly, Yahiko's voice came into Xiaonan's ears. She turned her head in confusion and saw her companion sitting by the bed not far away.

"Yahiko, can't you sleep too?"

"Well, because all this is too unreal."

Sitting by the bed, Yahiko's little eyes were full of deep confusion. He couldn't believe that he was so lucky to meet a good person like Uchiha Gin,

who not only provided material assistance, but also taught them precious ninjutsu.

"Maybe Gin-san is God."

Konan curled up in the warm blanket, recalling the scene of her making a wish to God during the day.

Didn't Uchiha Gin suddenly appear beside her after she made the wish?

"Hu~ No matter whether Yin San San is a god or a ghost, he is our eternal benefactor."

Yahiko closed his eyes and took a deep breath. When he opened his eyes, there was some unknown meaning in his eyes. He waved to Xiaonan,

"Go to sleep. We still have to practice tomorrow."

"Yeah."

Soon, Xiaonan, who felt much more at ease, fell asleep. The soft snoring sound slowly sounded from the corners of his upturned mouth,

"Hu~Hu~Hu~"

In the darkness, a pair of eyes slowly opened. Looking at the sleeping Xiaonan, Yahiko tiptoed out of the bed and touched the cave entrance.

The whistling wind at the cave entrance brought a biting chill and penetrated into Yahiko's thin collar, making the boy shiver. Seeing the swaying firelight not far away, his eyes were more moved.

In such a cold day, Yin San San was still keeping watch for them. Such a hero is really admirable.

"Grilled chicken wings~ I love it the most~"

Just as Yahiko was immersed in his own admiration, an alluring aroma came to his face, and then he heard Uchiha Gin's frivolous humming,

"Bah!"

Yahiko stopped and stood there, looking at Uchiha Gin sitting next to the luxurious stove wrapped in a big quilt. He stretched out his fingers tremblingly, with an unbelievable look on his face,

"Gin San San, you"

"Huh? You kid actually has the habit of getting up at night. Remember to take more Shenbao tablets when you grow up."

Uchiha Gin was making sauce for the shiny grilled chicken wings. Looking at Yahiko who looked shocked, he sighed and shook his head, as if he was sorry for his physical condition.

"Gudu~"

Yahiko, who had not eaten meat for who knows how long, his eyes fell on the sizzling and oily chicken wings. He couldn't hold back, and the sound of swallowing saliva echoed throughout the cave.

"Are you hungry? Come over and eat something~"

Controlling the heat with one hand, Uchiha Gin called his cheap disciple to sit down and share a supper with him.

"yes!"

Sitting next to the stove in a hurry, Yahiko's saliva almost dripped to the ground.

“It smells so good!”

Holding the chicken wings handed over by Uchiha Gin, Yahiko, who had not eaten meat for a long time, ate with ferocity. He destroyed a bunch of chicken wings in three times, even the bones were chewed into pieces and swallowed.

"Yin Sansan, I thought you were suffering from the cold here~"

Wiping the grease from the corner of his mouth, Yahiko looked at Uchiha Gin's luxurious outdoor suit and shed tears of envy.

He originally wanted to see if his teacher needed help, but he unexpectedly encountered this extravagant and lewd scene.

"Hey, I'm already old, why can't I let others enjoy it?"

Uchiha Gin, who was eating chicken wings and drinking sweet water, looked like he was taking it for granted. He was in such a miserable state now, couldn't he eat something good?

If he couldn't stay too far away from Xiaonan, he would have gone to the red light district of the town for a thorough inspection.

"It's you who stayed up most of the night and doesn't want to practice tomorrow?"

After taking a sip of the sweet water in the yellow package, Uchiha Gin raised his eyebrows at the confused Yahiko.

"I'm going to sleep now!"

Yahiko stood up immediately after hearing this. He was really worried that Uchiha Gin would not teach them.

"Forget it, I see you can't sleep either, let's have a chat."

Uchiha Gin shook his head and threw away an unopened bottle of Lao Daicha. Yahiko quickly took it into his arms and sat back down after hesitating for a moment.

"Tell me, what is your dream?"

With his hands crossed and placed on his chin, Uchiha Gin stared at Yahiko who was curiously playing with the sweet water, and tortured his soul.

"ha?"

Yahiko frowned. He had lived a precarious life before and had never thought about such a profound question. At most, he could only imagine what treasures he could find from the trash can tomorrow.

"Protect important people, right?"

But things are different now. With the existence of Uchiha Gin, he has the confidence to face the unknown future. If he really has any dream, it should be to protect the people around him!

"out!"

After hearing this cliche answer, Uchiha Gin raised the elimination card,

"What's the difference between being a man without dreams and a salted fish?"

"Didn't I say I want to protect important people?"

Yahiko couldn't help but retort, he even told the dream he had just had, but Uchiha Gin actually laughed at him,

"Can this be called a dream? This is gay sex, right?"

"Then I really have no dreams?"

After hearing Uchiha Gin's words, Yahiko fell into deep self-doubt. Is he really a salty fish?

"It's okay. It's never too late to start your dream. Now you can set a small goal as the way forward."

Patting Yahiko on the shoulder as if to encourage him, Uchiha Gin said with earnest words,

"Small goal?"

Yahiko blinked with a confused look on his face. He didn't know what small goal he should set now.

"Why don't you let me help you set your first small goal~"

"Okay, thank you Yin Sansan!"

Yahiko, who was stunned by Uchiha Gin's words, could only nod in agreement.

"Very well, your first goal is to become a helpful person."

Looking at the empty stove, Uchiha Gin smiled and said,

"Helping?"

"Yes, after you help ten people who really need help, you can then set the next goal for yourself until you realize your deepest dream."

Recalling Uchiha Gin's words, the confusion in Yahiko's eyes slowly dissipated. After some strange thoughts, he suddenly raised his head,

"I understand! Silver Sansan, thank you!"

Yahiko's expression was very excited at the moment, and he looked at Uchiha Gin with even more admiration.

Yin Sansan really had good intentions and talked with her at night with a candle, just to teach him to be a good young man with structure, cultivation and ambition.

He will definitely live up to Gin Sansan's expectations and become a high-quality ninja.

"Very good. You understand so quickly. It's not in vain that I wasted so much time talking."

Uchiha Gin nodded with satisfaction, then changed the subject,

"So, as a helpful person, can you help me go to town and buy some chicken wings? I bought too few chicken wings during the day, so I don't have to bake them now~"

"ha?"

Holding a golden golden bean in his hands, Yahiko was walking in the heavy rain with a confused expression on his face. His little head was racing for a long time, and even Hong Wen couldn't figure out the reason.

Who am I, where am I, what am I going to do?

However, listening to the singing echoing in the cave behind him, he vaguely felt as if he had been fooled.

“Roast chicken wings~my favorite food~”

the next day.

"Remaining time-188258s"

Uchiha Gin's mood became heavier as he looked at the countdown that was still counting down. Looking at the two children in front of him who were waiting in full swing, his tone became a little more solemn,

"Today, I will train you very strictly. Are you ready?"

"Always ready!"*2

Konan and Yahiko almost shouted at the top of their lungs,

"Very good, very energetic!"

Feeling the determination of the two people, Uchiha Gin nodded happily,

"The art of shadow clone."

He raised his hands to form a Ren seal, and as a burst of white smoke rose, another Uchiha Gin appeared in front of everyone, picking his nose.

"You go teach that brat not to misbehave."

Pointing at Yahiko who looked envious, Uchiha Gin ordered to his shadow clone,

"Tsk, what you said, how dare I play with him!"

The shadow clone rolled his eyes. Who is Yahiko? He is the god of rice, rbqrbq~

"Let's go, I'll teach you how to make sleepy black tea~"

Patting Yahiko on the shoulder, the shadow clone took him out of the cave. The space outside was larger and easier to perform.

"yes!"

Please...you...collect_6_9_书_Bar (Six//Nine//Books//Bar)

After Yahiko left, Uchiha Gin pointed to the paper dragon on the table.

"Konan, can you attach chakra to paper now?"

"Not even close."

Shaking her head in embarrassment, Konan keenly saw a trace of disappointment flashing in Uchiha's silver eyes, and her heart immediately tightened.

"Give me another hour, I can do it!"

Not wanting Uchiha Gin to show that look again, Konan gritted his teeth and promised,

"Don't worry, I don't mean to blame you."

Disappointed, Uchiha Gin couldn't put the blame on a child who had just learned to refine chakra.

"Silver Three Three"

"Don't show such an expression, a smile is the standard feature of an angel."

Looking at Konan who was depressed, Uchiha Gin stepped forward and rubbed her little face, forcing out a smile.

Feeling the warmth from Uchiha's silver palm, a few red clouds instantly appeared on Xiaonan's cheeks, and a glimmer of light flowed in her eyes. She didn't know what she was thinking.

"Take your time, I won't control the paper dragon today."

For Xiaonan, who has just stepped into the road of ninja, it is indeed too difficult for her to control the complicated origami all at once.

Uchiha Gin then took out a piece of white paper from the pile of white papers and placed it in front of Konan.

"First fold something you like."

Xiaonan raised his head when he heard this, his eyes swept across Uchiha Gin's handsome face, and then fell on the pure white paper.

"Is anything okay?"

"As long as you like."

Taking the white paper, Xiaonan's ten jade-onion-like fingers danced rapidly, the movements were so fast that it was dizzying.

After a day of origami training, Xiao Nan has improved a lot in this craft. After a few breaths, a delicate white rose appeared in her hands.

"Yin Sansan, here you go."

Holding the rose high in her hand, Xiaonan's face had a hint of bright red, and her evasive eyes did not dare to look at Uchiha Gin.

"It's so exquisite that it can be mistaken for the real thing."

Uchiha Gin didn't notice Konan's expression. His eyes were attracted by the white roses. Looking at the familiar flowers, he always felt that his journey through time was traceable.

"Next, you try to use chakra to control the flower to turn into white paper, and then turn into a flower again."

Compared with the complicated paper dragon, the difficulty of controlling the paper rose should be much lower, and since this is what Xiaonan has in mind, her mental power will be more concentrated.

"yes!"

Konan bit her lip and moved her gaze from Uchiha Gin to the paper flowers in front of her. She swore that she would not let Gin Sansan down.

Not wanting to put too much pressure on the girl, Uchiha Gin chose to leave enough space for Konan, walked out alone, and stood at the entrance of the cave to listen to the shadow clone teaching Yahiko,

"You can't even learn the E-level three-body technique, and you still want to activate a water dragon. Are you worthy?"

I saw the shadow clone standing in front of the blushing Yahiko, pointing at the abstract clone on the ground, criticizing mercilessly,

"That's almost it. It was obviously successful just now. Let's move on to the next step!"

Unconvinced, Yahiko gritted his teeth and retorted. Wasn't it just a mistake? It didn't cause any serious disaster.

"Haha~ Ninja is not an almost-qualified profession."

A finger poked Yahiko's forehead, and the shadow clone showed an expression of hatred for steel.

"Keep practicing. If you can master the Three Body Technique within three hours, I will make an exception and teach you a unique ninjutsu."

Give a stick to a sweet date, Uchiha Gin, who has been engaged in education for many years, still knows a little bit about how to be a teacher.

"Is it true?"

"It's true~"

"Come on! Whip me as much as you like!"

Hearing that there was an exclusive ninjutsu that could be learned, Yahiko felt as if he had been given a boost and began to take seriously the most basic and important ninjutsu, the Three Body Technique.

The day passed quickly,

When night fell, Uchiha Gin went to inspect the students' learning results.

In the cave, Xiao Nan knelt down in front of the paper flowers, raising her hands glowing with blue light. With a slight rustling sound, the roses made of white paper were blooming at a slow speed.

"Huh~"

As more and more beads of sweat formed on her face, Xiao Nan, who was dripping with sweat, finally lowered her hands, and the paper flowers were frozen at the moment of blooming.

"Not even close."

Wiping the sweat from her forehead, Xiaonan raised her hands again, but her trembling hands began to swing left and right uncontrollably.

"Whoosh!"

With silver eyes and quick hands, Uchiha stepped forward and caught Konan in time as he was about to fall weakly to the ground.

"Huhu. Sorry, Yin Sansan, I disappoint you."

Konan fell into Uchiha Gin's arms, an unhealthy blush flashed across her cheeks. She tried to struggle to get up, but found that her body was as limp as mud and she couldn't move at all.

"It's okay, you've done a good job."

To be honest, Uchiha Gin did not expect that Xiaonan could already control the blooming of paper flowers. This was considered to be the threshold for getting started with paper ninjutsu.

The essence of paper ninjutsu is actually the application of ninja tools. The practitioner uses his own chakra to transform paper to control and shape it.

As long as Xiaonan can flexibly control this paper rose to bloom and recover, she will have learned the secret art of paper ninjutsu.

At this moment, a figure walked in from outside the cave,

"Hey, main body, this kid is really desperate."

It turned out to be the shadow clone who was guiding Yahiko's training outside. He was seen carrying the unconscious orange-haired kid and said helplessly,

"How about it?"

"It's time to lose your strength. How can anyone practice the Three Body Technique like that? It's just like brushing up on proficiency."

Throwing Yahiko onto the stone bed, the shadow clone smashed his mouth and stretched out his hand towards Uchiha Gin.

"Seeing as I've been busy all day, how about one?"

"Haha, solved!"

I don't have enough food left to give this clone like you,

Uchiha Gin is really a master of killing people. The confused shadow clone didn't even have time to curse, before he turned into a wisp of white smoke and completely disappeared from this world.

"Gulu~Gulu~"

Just after Uchiha Gin finished dealing with his clone, a piercing sound of belly thunder sounded behind him,

"I'm sorry."

Xiaonan, holding her stomach, wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in. How could Yin Sansan hear such a shameful voice?

"You have been practicing so hard today. It would be a problem if you weren't hungry."

Refining chakra is the most energy-consuming thing. Xiaonan's body is already weak. After a day of extracting chakra, her stomach is not rumbling until now, which is really embarrassing for her.

"Whatever you want to eat, I'll do it."

It was too late to go to town for dinner, so Uchiha Gin decided to cook by himself to give the two children a good meal.

"Fish, I want to eat fish."

Living in the Land of Rain, a land of lakes and lakes, Xiaonan grew up eating fish, but after becoming an orphan, she never saw any fish.

Fish is a delicacy that can only be enjoyed when you are with your family.

"Fish."

The supplies purchased did not include fish, which is not easy to store, and Uchiha Gin could not leave Konan too far, so he handed over the arduous task of purchasing fish to Yahiko, who was in a coma.

"Yahiko has a dream, get up and get to work~"

A violent tremor came towards the sleeping orange head,

"Ouch~ What are you doing!"

Yahiko, who was holding his head in pain and had tears in his eyes, opened his eyes angrily.

"Helpful young man, go buy fish!"

"Huh? You are really kidding me!"

Last night, when he went to buy chicken wings for Uchiha Gin in the rain, he noticed something was wrong. Unexpectedly, the other party didn't know how to restrain himself and deceived him again and again.

"That's right."

"How dare you admit it!"

"Then are you going or not? Exclusive ninjutsu~"

The annoyed Yahiko suddenly woke up when he saw Uchiha Gin with a teasing smile on his face. He immediately put on a dog-legged expression, nodded and bent down to take the golden beans, and disappeared into the rain.

"Hehe. Yin Sansan, you are too bad~"

Seeing Yahiko's extreme face change, Konan chuckled. This was the first time that Uchiha Gin saw a smile belonging to this age on the face of this miserable girl.

This is what an angel should look like.

Yahiko left just as quickly as he came. The big and lively fish ended its short life under Uchiha Gin's hands. He raised the knife and put it in the pot to heat oil. After many years, his cooking skills have not deteriorated at all.

Within a moment, a large plate of sweet and sour fish exuding a sweet smell was placed in front of the two children.

"I'm in a hurry! I'm in a hurry! This sweet and sour fish is delicious!"

Looking at the two people devouring their food, Uchiha Gin's eyes fell on the paper flower on the side that had not fully bloomed.

"This flower looks more and more familiar the more I look at it." (End of Chapter)
