Chapter 211: Born in Konoha, It's a Blessing
The sun gradually moved to the end of the horizon and finally set.
The sky was dyed orange-red, as if it had been burned by fire, and the clouds were dyed gold and purple, as if painting a magnificent picture on the canvas of the sky.
Feng Xingye poked the bonfire with a branch, flames rose, sparks flew, and then he distributed ration pills to the four children.
The corner of Obito's mouth twitched, and his expression was a little resistant. Since he had practical training courses in school, he was not unfamiliar with this thing.
The taste is hard to describe and it is difficult to swallow. It tastes like chewing wax and is useless except for filling you up.
"Master Hoshino, we have been eating Bingliang Pills for a few days. Can we change the taste?"
Obito looked at Kaede Hoshino, hoping to change his mind.
Hearing Obito's complaints, Hoshino Kaede pointed beside him and said, "Look at Kakashi and Shisui, you're the only one complaining."
Obito, who was being compared to others, looked at Miyashiro En with grievance, hoping that he could stand up and speak for himself.
Miyashiro En was well aware of the principle of clinging to someone powerful, so how could he raise any objections? He just lowered his head and ate the military ration pills.
Upon seeing this, Obito was petrified on the spot, eating the disgusting military ration pills in silence with tears in his eyes.
Kakashi laughed at him at this time: "You are still a reserve ninja. I wonder how you can open the Sharingan."
When Obito heard this, he glared at Kakashi, rolled up his sleeves and was about to go up to Kakashi and argue with him: "You worthy brat, I will definitely teach you a lesson."
Facing Obito's threat of force, Kakashi remained calm, as if he was not the one about to be beaten.
Shisui, a member of the same clan, saw the situation escalate and immediately grabbed Obito, winking at him: "Brother Obito, calm down, Master Hoshino is watching you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Obito felt a sudden chill on his back. He turned around stiffly and saw the expressionless face of Hoshino Kaede.
Although there were no words, people dared not move. Obito's arrogance was extinguished in an instant, and he buried his head like a quail.
Obito has been with Kaede Hoshino for quite some time, and he knows very well that he must never make him angry, otherwise he will get very scared.
Considering his childhood experiences, Obito didn't dare to act rashly in front of Kaede Hoshino. Apart from his grandmother, the person he was most afraid of was Kaede Hoshino.
Hoshino Kaede looked at Obito and said faintly, "You think the Hōryōgan is not tasty, right?"
The voice was very cold. Shisui and Kakashi looked at each other, then lowered their heads, not daring to look at Hoshino Kaede.
To be honest, they also felt that the Bingliang Pills were not tasty, but they did not have the courage to say it.
Because before leaving the village, my family repeatedly told me to listen to what Feng Xingye said and not to refute a single word.
Only Obito said whatever he thought, without any taboos, and spoke freely.
Obito was trembling all over and responded in a voice as soft as a mosquito, but he was not as casual as before.
Hoshino Feng nodded, but did not scold him. Instead, he looked at Yuyashiro Yan and asked calmly, "Yan, tell me, are the Bingliangwan delicious?"
After he finished speaking, three pairs of eyes fell on him. Yuya Chengyan was not afraid and said bluntly: "It's not delicious."
After saying this, Kakashi and Shisui couldn't help but look at Hoshino Kaede, trying to see something from those deep eyes.
But how can they see through the thick fog and see the true nature of Kaede Hoshino?
Then, I heard Yuyajo En continue: "But it can fill my stomach."
After hearing the reply from Yuyagi En, Hoshino Kaede did not comment, picked up a soldier's ration pill, and his tone suddenly became heavy.
"This thing really doesn't taste good. It tastes bitter and hard to swallow."
"However, there are still many people in the Land of Fire who cannot even get enough food to eat."
"Hunger is always with them. They have to eat one meal before the next. You can eat a variety of delicious food every day, but they can't."
"Don't underestimate the Bingliang Pills. They can play a huge role in times of crisis."
Hearing such heavy words from Xingye Feng, the three little ones felt different emotions in their hearts.
It turns out...there is never a shortage of people in this world who want to be full.
"Isn't it possible for Konoha to eliminate hunger?" Obito asked with a heavy face.
Xingye Feng sighed and shook his head: "It's difficult. There are many factors involved. This can't be solved overnight."
At this time, Yuyajo En spoke up: "When I came to the Land of Fire, I hid from place to place and saw many homeless people starving to death on the roadside."
After hearing this, Obito and the other two were greatly shocked, and it left a mark on their young hearts.
Hoshino Kaede explained: "Those people can be seen everywhere outside the village, but while Konoha is maintaining food reserves in the village, it is also radiating out to the surrounding areas and carrying out aid operations."
After he finished speaking, he paused and looked at Kakashi: "This is a big part of the reason why your father is away from home all day."
Kakashi clenched his fists upon hearing this, but then unclenched them, revealing a relieved expression.
Obito stared at the Hyouliang Maru in his hand in a daze, his eyes gradually became firm and he stopped complaining.
Seeing the changes in everyone, Xingye Feng's cold expression gradually melted and he said, "Go to bed early. Someone will take us to a place tomorrow and we will take turns on duty at night."
The setting sun sinks into the horizon, the last ray of afterglow falls, and night becomes the ruler of the world.
Nothing happened that night. The next morning, after everyone packed their bags, Xingye Feng said, "Come with me. Don't be surprised for a while, and don't do anything radical about any movement."
"It's better to see it with your own eyes than to hear it with your own ears. Let's see how lucky you are to be born in Konoha."
These nonsensical words made several people look at each other in confusion, not knowing what they meant.
But Xingye Feng just smiled meaningfully, waved at them, and walked in front alone.
Not a single word of explanation.
Helplessly, he had to follow Xingye Feng and walked forward. After walking for a while, Xingye Feng had a smile hidden in his eyes and his face remained expressionless.
Sashasha~
In the silent forest, any movement was infinitely magnified. Xingye Feng hid the emotion in his eyes and pretended to be serious and said, "Something is wrong!"
Before the people behind him could react, figures appeared from all around.
Obito looked annoyed. He didn't even notice any clues. He was really lacking in ability.
This was a bad scene. Xingye Feng looked flustered. He protected the child and said in a trembling voice, "What are you going to do?"
Following the question, a burly man came out. He should be the leader of these people.
He looked at Xingye Feng with a vicious expression, waved the stick in his hand and shouted.
"Hand over all the valuables, including the food!"
The ferocious expression made Xingye Feng tremble all over. Seeing that the situation was no match for him, he obediently handed over all his belongings and food.
When the man saw that Xingye Feng was so understanding, his expression relaxed and became much kinder, but he still had a stern face and signaled to the others with his eyes.
A moment later, Xingye Feng and several others who were accidentally "captured" were blindfolded and followed the robbery team to the other side of the mountain.
