Under the wooden bridge, beside the stream.
The three children are simply cleaning the dust on their faces.
Because the cave was "blasted" by Masahiko, the three of them are now completely dirty, but the wilderness can only be cleaned briefly.
"Well, it's almost there. Let's pack up and return to Konoha. Go back and clean it."
Masahiko's body is "spotless", he has been attacked by Kushina's white eyes one after another, and he can't bear it.
Xiao Nan hesitated, "Teacher, we don't seem to have enough medicinal materials."
Masahiko smiled, and took out two seal scrolls, "Pointing to when you don't know when it can be collected, this is enough."
Although there is only one level of pharmacy, it is enough to identify these simple medicinal materials, and I unknowingly collected two seal scrolls full of medicinal materials.
"Then let's go back, grandfather." Kushina said, as the little princess of the country of vortex, although she is not spoiled, she can't stand the dust on her body.
Masahiko nodded and flew up again with the three children, and headed towards Konoha, smiling while glancing at the jungle not far away.
The four Shangnin Village ninjas were among them, and the four skateboards left by the four Masahikos were picked up by them.
"Brother, they left, and didn't go back to find an abacus."
"I saw it. I made hundreds of thousands of taels in vain. You don't care if they leave."
…
In the air, Masahiko smirked and touched the banknote in his arms. He wouldn't really use money to buy it. He just used some illusionary interference. It is estimated that tomorrow they will find that the banknote has become a leaf, so I don't know how to find it. Who makes sense...
The journey that has been traveled once is smoother when I go back. But after all, Masahiko still carried an "old ancestor of salamander", and the speed was slower.
"Teacher, is the one in your hand really a great newt?" Xiao Nan hesitated and asked.
Masahiko was stunned for a moment, with some uncertainty, "It should be, it doesn't matter, it's okay to change the taste of the bingliang pill..."
What he said was very irresponsible, and he didn't use the weaponry pill anyway.
At the entrance of Konoha Village, Masahiko did not land, carrying such a big thing in his hand, he could not drag it from the entrance of the village, so he flew directly to the Hokage Building, and the two-and-a-half-day "long-term mission" came to an end.
"Ri Zhan, came out to receive the goods, this is a big salamander." Masahiko shouted with a smile.
Ri Zhan walked out with a serious expression, and even said solemnly, "Elder Masahiko, you are back."
Masahiko was taken aback, "What's wrong? The third Ninja War has begun?"
Ri Zhan shook his head, "It's news from the Uzbek Country, and the name of the Uzbek Country is critically ill..."
"Who?"
"grandfather?"
Masahiko and Kushina were surprised at the same time.
Rizhan nodded solemnly, proving that Masahiko had heard him right.
"Grandpa..." Jiu Xinnai suddenly became anxious.
Masahiko waved his hand and looked at Hizumi, "Has Nanako gone back?"
"gone back."
Masahiko nodded, took out the seal scroll from his arms, threw it over, and flew up again with the three children, and went straight to the country of vortex.
"It's been less than a year since we last met. Gensuke is only 65 years old. How come... 65 years old?" In the sky, Masahiko continued to accelerate, feeling deeply.
The three children were speechless and unwilling to speak.
The three of them are still covered with dust, but even Jiu Xinnai has no intention of cleaning up.
In just half an hour, he returned to the country of Uzumaki in the constant acceleration of Masahiko.
"Nagato, Xiao Nan, you go back and clean up first, I'll take Jiu Xin Na first."
Masahiko took Jiuxina directly to the entrance of the daimyo palace, ignoring the guards' various greetings to him, and went straight into the palace.
"Teacher, you are back." Yizi took the lead to greet him.
"How is Gensuke?" Masahiko had actually sensed that his Chakra was already very weak, but he still asked a little bit incredulously.
Unsurprisingly, Yizi shook his head gently, and Kushina immediately rushed in.
Masahiko sighed and didn't rush in.
"what happened?"
"Gensuke may be too tired..." Yizi sighed. Although she hadn't dealt with Gensuke all the time, she was also a little sad at this time.
"Is it too tired..." Masahiko has never been very interested in Gensuke. He is ambitious, but he doesn't have the right mind, and he doesn't have the tenacity that a ninja should have.
But for so many years, Masahiko has mostly been a hand-off shopkeeper, and the smooth development of Uzumaki Country is really thanks to him.
"How is Nanako's mood?"
"I'm fine, teacher."
As soon as Masahiko asked, Nanako walked out of it, without the grief that Masahiko imagined.
"You..." Masahiko hesitated, but couldn't say his comforting words. He really didn't know how to comfort him. Is he going to say "Life, old age, sickness and death, human nature"
"It's okay, teacher, I'm actually prepared for this day." Nanako shook his head.
"Before I went to Konoha, I found that his health was not very good. I also advised him to take a break, but he did not agree. I knew that there would be such a day at that time, but I didn't expect it would come so soon."
"Is that so?" Masahiko nodded, "Let's go in."
He hadn't seen Gensuke in just a year, and he was like a different person, and he was old and dying.
Inside the house, Gensuke and Nanako's son and daughter-in-law stood aside, and Kushina was sobbing.
Gensuke also saw Masahiko, a smile squeezed out of the old face, and nodded to him.
Masahiko was silent and smiled at him, Yuanjie closed his eyes with relief.
The others quickly surrounded him, Masahiko shook his head helplessly, "I didn't get my approval until I was about to die. What's so gratifying."
Masahiko didn't know how many times this was given by a white-haired man... A black-haired man gave a white-haired man, but he was still a little depressed.
"Teacher, birth, old age, sickness and death, human nature, you don't need to be too sad." Masahiko never expected that Nanako would be comforting him at this time, completely upside down.
"Birth, old age, sickness and death..." Masahiko nodded and walked out.
He knew in his heart that Nanako was not comforting him now, but she knew that she and Jing Hitomi would not be far behind when they were old, maybe five years? ten years? At that time Masahiko might have to send them away one by one.
"It's not good to live too long." Masahiko said with emotion. He has sent away too many younger generations. If he is not naturally optimistic, and there are "acquaintances" born one after another, he might have lived enough...
