Chapter 283 Return to the village and divert the trouble away.
Sanshui lowered his head, his expression hidden in the shadows and could not be seen clearly, and said.
"We businessmen are like fishermen on the sea. The stronger the wind and waves, the more expensive the fish."
"The Kaino family is now in a trough, with a large amount of wealth in their hands. Various jackals, tigers and leopards have been eyeing them covetously for a long time."
"With your blessing, all these crises will be resolved."
Xingye Feng said: "You are quite frank. The glory of a hundred years of family makes you so humble. If people knew about this, wouldn't they laugh at you?"
Umino Sanshui's eyes were as calm as a windless lake, without a ripple, exuding tranquility and depth.
"When it comes to life and death, everything else has to give way. Respect is earned, not given by others."
A hint of certainty flashed in Xingye Feng's eyes, and he nodded slightly: "That's true, but few people can do it."
But then he changed the subject and said, "But unfortunately, I already have retainers, and I am not short of the Kaino family."
Sanshui remained calm upon hearing this and continued, "I have heard of the Blood Pond Clan. They have great potential and are definitely qualified to be retainers."
He first praised Xingye Feng for his excellent vision, then paused and continued.
"But they are all ninjas, and they don't know much about daily trivial matters, so it is inevitable that some mistakes will occur."
There was a hint of smile in Xingye Feng's eyes: "You mean, the Kaino family can guarantee that there will be no mistakes?"
Hearing this, Sanshui knelt down on the ground without saying a word and spoke in a firm and loud voice.
"Sanshui guarantees it with his life. If there is any mistake, he will die to atone for it!"
At this moment, all the onlookers opened their mouths so wide that it seemed like they could fit an egg in them.
Seeing this, Jin Yue muttered quietly: "I've really opened my eyes today. Someone actually came forward to become a retainer. This is strange."
As the saying goes: Don’t advise others to do good unless you have experienced their suffering.
Jin Yue was born in Konoha, in a peaceful village. Although she was not rich, at least she did not starve to death.
In addition, it happened to be during the reign of Kaede Hoshino, so being able to grow up in peace was something that many people envied.
If it were the Hidden Mist Village, I would be lucky to be able to get out of school alive.
Xingye Feng glared at Jin Yue, causing her to shrink her neck immediately. Then, she looked at the unwavering San Shui, rolled her eyes, and finally spoke.
"It is said that one must have both civil and military skills. Since we have the martial arts, we cannot lack the civil skills either."
Xingye Feng's words made Sanshui look happy. He thought he would be greeted with the wrath of thunder, but unexpectedly there was a big reversal.
"The prestige of the Kaino family in Kirigakure does qualify them."
After the words fell, Sanshui said excitedly: "Greetings, my lord!"
Xingye Feng nodded: "Get up, I hope you won't let me down."
Sanshui stood up and said solemnly: "I will definitely live up to your expectations."
After saying that, he suppressed his inner excitement and retreated with Kaguya Izumi.
The huge room seemed a little more empty now that two people were missing.
Xingye Feng accepted another retainer, but his expression was calm, as if it was a common and ordinary thing and not worth mentioning.
After hesitating for a moment, Jin Yue mustered up the courage to ask, "Master Xingye, what was that matter? Why do I feel like that person just now risked everything for this?"
Xingye Feng took a sip of tea and said leisurely, "This matter will probably spread soon. Then you will know. It's useless to tell you now."
"You'd better pack your luggage quickly and take the earliest boat back tomorrow. Don't waste time packing right before you leave."
Jin Yue didn't get the answer she wanted, and immediately became like a wilted flower. She hung her head and silently packed her luggage.
The next day, the top leaders of the Hidden Mist Village came to see them off, but most of them were just forcing their smiles.
Xingye Feng didn't care about it at all. After all, the grasshoppers wouldn't be able to jump for long in autumn, so it didn't matter whether they were there sooner or later.
hum-
The ship set sail, making a roar, moving away from the land and heading towards the depths of the ocean.
Mizunotsuki Ling stood at the edge of the land and looked into the distance. With his excellent eyesight, he saw Kimimaro's figure and couldn't help but feel moved.
“Perhaps, the way to save the family is right before our eyes.”
After watching the ship disappear from sight, he withdrew his gaze and returned to the tribe.
The sound of children's laughter still echoed on the ship. Just like when he came, Kimimaro was infected by the cheerful atmosphere and joined in.
Xingye Feng had anticipated this, and as soon as he got on board, he went straight into the room, leaving the mess to Jin Yue, and enjoyed the warm and quiet afternoon tea time alone.
"Red Bean! That's an explosive tag, don't use it carelessly, or you'll get blown up."
"Ah!!! Kimimaro! If you can't swim, tell me first, don't sneak into the water!"
"..."
Xingye Feng smiled knowingly and was very glad of his foresight, otherwise God knows when he would go crazy.
"Jinyue, I'm doing this for your own good. Young people should exercise more."
At the end, Xingye Feng couldn't help but burst out laughing, full of gloating.
It was not until the night when Jin Yue had almost exhausted all her energy that she got a moment of rest. She lay on the bed like mud, closed her eyes in pain, and fell asleep.
This kind of life lasted for several days until it ended when we set foot on land.
Xingye Feng laughed, turned his head away from Jin Yue, and unconsciously quickened his pace.
Jin Yue had a dark face and followed behind with his arms folded, sneering from time to time and staring straight at Xingye Feng in front of him.
That look was like a knife, piercing straight into his remaining conscience.
The three little guys were shivering beside each other, and anyone could see that something was wrong.
Hongdou whispered to Shisui, "Sister Jinyue is so scary when she gets angry. It makes me feel cold on my back."
Shisui nodded immediately, recalling with lingering fear: "Yeah, especially the look in his eyes, it made me feel uneasy."
Kimimaro deeply agreed with the conversation between the two. Even someone as calm as him felt a little chilly, as if he had met his nemesis.
"That's right, that's right." Kimimaro nodded repeatedly.
Just as the three of them were discussing privately, they suddenly felt a darkness in front of their eyes, and a thrilling force suddenly appeared behind them.
The three of them turned their heads mechanically. Jin Yue looked at them with a smile, and the anger behind her seemed to be materializing.
When she was angry, her expression was as fierce as a lion, as if she wanted to swallow all the dissatisfaction and injustice in one gulp.
"You three, do you think I can't hear you?" Jin Yue walked towards them step by step, with a devilish smile on his face, rubbing his hands together.
Ahhhhh——
A sharp cry of fear resounded throughout the forest, causing Feng Xingye, who was walking in front, to let out a long sigh and pat his chest.
"It was a close call. Fortunately, I was smart and managed to divert the trouble away, so I was able to escape."
"I hope Jinyue will be gentler. The child's skin is too tender to withstand her torture." Xingye Feng prayed silently.
After praying, all the guilt in Xingye Feng's heart disappeared, and he continued to move forward with peace of mind.
As for the three little guys... Well, they can only wish them good luck. Maybe if they beg for mercy and say nice things they can win a chance of survival.
Well, he is such a good man to come up with such an idea.
