Chapter 242 Race against time(1/2)
After the weather got warmer, the health of the former daimyo of the Fire Country also improved slightly.
The old king, who had not left the palace for more than a year, ignored everyone's dissuasion and decided to come to Yuqi Island. On the surface, he wanted to see the popular "King of Fighting" challenge, and also to see his grandson Xin.
A few little angels.
In fact, outsiders don't know what the boss is thinking, and even his own family members don't understand?
Now, Uncle Zhiji, who acted in the name of the Gui family, is finally getting married and has a child. He has always felt guilty about the Gushan family of the previous generation and did not defend it to the death. As a result, he died in depression and his only son did not have a decent life.
, the former daimyo who claimed to be the helmsman of the family really wanted to make amends, so he took care of his illness and came to see his nephew and new daughter-in-law whom he had not heard from for nearly twenty years.
At this point, it doesn't matter whether it's the first marriage or not, and whether it's a good match or not. As long as you can start a family and start a business, live a stable life, and have something to look forward to, that's fine.
In order not to worry his family, Gu Shan Bu Shui hid some information that did not need to be known, so that his elders who were in poor health would not worry about it.
When the luxury cruise ship carrying the eldest daimyo docked at Yuqi Island and was taken to the Gusugi family's residence, the whole family was already here except for the current daimyo who still hadn't traveled.
After not seeing each other for a long time, Liangzhong was suffocating at home with his father and grandfather. This time he could finally go out and get some fresh air.
His mother, Princess Ruri, held her father's arm very affectionately, greeting him with greetings, while Masaki Kosugi was entertaining the guests outside.
After sitting down, the boss waved his hand and asked cousin Zhiji and Gui Meiqin to come closer.
"The naughty boy I used to be is now so big."
Cousin Zhiji smiled awkwardly. This is not a big problem, but he is getting old. Especially because he is controlled by the Gushan Bu Shui branch, he has to check whether he has a few more gray hairs every now and then.
"Troubling you."
"I feel relieved to see that you are fine. I can give an explanation to my deceased brothers and sisters."
Said boss Dai Ming looked in the direction of Gui Meiqin. Her originally beautiful straight hair was tied up in a very graceful bun. Her white and tender neck was exposed outside the collar. She was wearing a luxurious kimono, and she didn't look awkward at all.
Abrupt, it seems like it should be like this.
"I heard that you are pregnant?"
"Yes, it's less than three months."
After hearing this, the boss Ming's face was filled with joy, and he ordered to the winking Liangshige:
"Go and bring in the gifts you brought?"
"Shall I go? It's so heavy..."
"Shut up and go quickly?"
Seeing Liang Zhong, everyone kept their mouths shut and walked out. Gu Shan Bushui stepped forward to smooth things over.
"Let me arrange it. How can I say it? My little cousin is a guest from afar, so I shouldn't let him worry about it."
As he spoke, the young governor asked Yasukawa Zaihara to direct his men to unload the things they had brought and pack them into boxes in batches for disposal.
"Bu Shui, where is your daughter? Let me see."
"Come here..."
Gushan Bushui turned around, and together with Hongye, brought the three sleeping children over from the inside.
Xiao Hiiragi, who is usually more sensitive, was exhausted from playing for too long and couldn't wake up no matter how much he played with it. On the other hand, Kagami and Tsukasa, who were sleeping lightly, looked at the kind-hearted old man with sleepy eyes.
"They are quite blessed. They are all good children."
After pondering for a while whether the gifts I brought were enough, I suddenly realized something.
"Where's Xianglin? The last time I saw her was in Konoha Village. It's been more than two years. Has she grown into a big girl?"
"How can it be so soon? I will come back to participate in the 'King of Fighting' competition in the middle of next month. Just wait, it will be soon."
"Fine."
The older I get, the more I miss the past, especially when I had a serious illness and almost went to see my ancestors early, and many things became more difficult to see.
Every winter, we have to go through the gate of hell. Last year we managed to survive it, but next year I am not sure whether I will be able to happily reunite with my family today.
"This place is changing more and more every year. Liuli, please take me around."
If we don’t take advantage of this good opportunity to wander around, it would be a shame if we can’t see the scenery here in the future.
After the eldest brother walked away, cousin Liangzhong looked at his cousin Zhiji and Gui Meiqin several times, then walked to Gushan Bushui and whispered in a low voice:
"Cousin, is that person... easy to get along with?"
The younger Liangshige knew almost nothing about what happened back then. He only heard about such a person from other people a few years ago.
"It's not bad. Even if his face doesn't look good, it's because he's too tired from work and doesn't have a good rest."
"Is that so? Our family still has so much work to do that makes the master so busy, isn't it too abnormal?"
"It's voluntary, so don't worry about it. Don't underestimate the consciousness of an old father who just wants to make money for milk powder!"
"I know, I know, don't pull my ears."
Liangshige, who took a few steps away, continued to complain,
"My father has begun to arrange marriage arrangements for me again. Can you go and persuade me?"
"You are the only current daimyo who has a son. If you don't marry a wife and have children, who will the position of king be passed on to?"
"That's too urgent. I'm still a few months away from turning 20."
"When I'm your age, children can add and subtract within a hundred."
"Can that be the same?"
The little cousin had a sad face,
"I escaped this time. When I go back, I will be forced to meet girls I have never met before. It is too difficult."
"You have to decide for yourself. Instead of begging me, you might as well discuss it with my mother. If you can get her to talk, maybe you can push me."
"Forget it, my father is just worried now. If my aunt gets involved again, it will be two people urging the marriage."
"I can't help you! Excuse me. I have to prepare food for the child."
"My cousin would never be so unsympathetic. He was never like this before."
Gu Shan Bu Shui shrugged and walked into the room calmly.
I was young before, but now I have to take care of several children. How can I have free time to brag and spank with you every day?
After taking a look at Cousin Haruki and Mrs. Mikoto, who were almost paying attention to each other, Yoshigege sighed helplessly and followed his grandfather's footsteps, not knowing what to say.
…
On the other side, after taking care of the child and handing it over to Hongye, Gushan Bushui came to the front hall and asked the subordinates responsible for the progress of this year's "King of Fighters" challenge to report their work. After working for more than two hours, he returned
Rest for a while in the small pavilion of the house.
There are some nerve-wracking trivial matters that cannot be avoided. After all, some taboos involving ninja villages may not be understood by the subordinates.
If the Kiri Ninja and Iwa Ninja were placed in the same area, someone would have to die on the spot.
After resting for a while, Gusugi Fusui cheered up and let go of his perception. Kaguya Otsutsuki also lost no time in showing up. After looking at him for a while, he said:
"The degree of thawing is less than 25%, so I tried my best, that's all?"
Not only that, after the unexpected stimulus, the thaw will become slower and slower in the future. If nothing else happens, there will be no chance of a complete thaw in the first half of the year, and it will be quite difficult in the second half of the year.
"Is there any other way to quickly improve your strength?"
"You go and sacrifice Orochimaru, maybe you can get a lot of money."
"Forget it, I won't mention this again in the future. The demand for 'Wedge' is not strong now, so the speed of blood sacrifices needs to be slowed down a little."
After all, heinous bad guys are not everywhere. Gathering them together is inherently dangerous and cannot be done often.
"One thing, I have to remind you, I seem to feel the same source of energy approaching nearby."
"What's the meaning?"
"That is to say, people related to the power of the sacred tree have arrived on Yuqi Island, such as those battle puppets..."
"All right!"
So, it's either Uchiha Obito or Uchiha Itachi. Want to see the limelight and evaluate Uchiha Sasuke's growth rate?
There are still several years before the "Akatsuki" organization starts to capture tailed beasts, so there is no need to worry about the threat of those "rebellious ninjas" yet.
However, it is hard to say for Uchiha Itachi.
Once he realizes that his mother is not dead, and has even remarried and had children, there is no telling what he will do.
That person was not a murderous maniac. Since Uchiha Mikoto escaped and survived, he probably would not kill again.
The problem is that my cousin's position is very embarrassing.
Do you still expect brothers Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Sasuke to call him dad in the future?
Even thinking about it seems impossible.
"By the way, Uchiha Mikoto's aptitude does not lie in the Sharingan. In contrast, she does show signs of returning to her ancestors like Otsutsuki. After fusing the 'Wedge', this specialty was also developed."
"Have you become stronger?"
