Chapter 110： The end of an era

Around seven o'clock, the rain finally stopped.

The few trees transplanted from Wuchao Village in the small yard, due to neglect of care, the branches and leaves slanted horizontally and reached under the eaves of the corridor.

So the rain that leaked from the eaves, occasionally rang, slowly and regularly beat the leaves.

After listening for a long time, it seems that my heartbeat has slowed down.

Lanterns have been lit in the courtyard, and the symbols of the whirlpool family are painted on the lanterns.

This is the ancient tradition of the whirlpool clan. Whenever the clan is about to die, red lanterns are lit in the yard.

After a rain, the weather is not so sultry anymore. Uzumaki Mito tucked his quilt in the bed.

At the table in front of her, Kushina carefully poured two glasses of small wine into the glass. Then there is a strong aroma in the glass.

Then Kushina handed a cup to Mito, and the other cup to Uchiha Tatsu next to her.

Mito held up the cup to drink, but suddenly coughed. Kushina quickly went up and patted Mito on the back.

Uchiha Tatsu showed a worried look while holding the cup.

Mito, who finished coughing, raised his glass and took a sip. After drinking, Mito made a comfortable voice.

She raised her head and saw the expressions of Uchiha Tatsu and Kousina, she couldn't help but smile: "I'm not dead yet, what are you doing with this expression."

"Little devil, you can drink quickly. This was left between the pillars and buried deep underground. You can't drink such good wine in other places."

"I don't know why this wine is so much less, it must have been drunk secretly by Tsunade. If you don't drink it now, you will never have a chance to drink it again."

This is not the first time Uchiha Tatsu has experienced Mito's free and easy. He nodded, then raised his head and drank.

"Speaking of this wine, I didn't like to drink it at first. Later, afterwards, the pillars often drank with Madara as drunk, and then he was picked up by Madara and stayed overnight."

"When I was curious, I tasted it and found that it was really good." Mito said with a smile.

"Grandma, can your body drink this wine?" Kushina hesitated.

"My body is very good. I will do everything I wanted to do before I die." Mito asked Kushina to pour himself a cup.

Hearing the word "death", Kushina's eyes immediately turned red, but he did not cry. She resisted, took the cup, and poured another cup for Uzumaki Mito.

"Counting out, it's been three years since Kushina, you left Ushio Village." Mito smiled and continued to drink.

"You are still used to the life of Konoha, is there someone else?"

Mito chuckles Kushina.

"Grandma, you will laugh at people! Ignore you." Kushina waved her fist, her red hair moved, like a flaming red peony.

"Look, this posture is so imposing. Hey, he just said a word and started to defend others. This makes my old lady very envious." Mito smiled, still unable to rob her.

Jiu Xinna, who was blushing, suddenly stopped, startled for a moment, and said, "But after all, I'm the only relative..."

Mito was stunned and looked at Kusina's face.

Red hair, exquisite appearance, and violent personality-exactly the same as when I was a child.

But now, Jiu Xin Na is sitting in front of her with a sad look on his face.

When Zhujian died that year, she was also so sad, but she didn't expect that the moment when she was about to die.

Mito was silent for a moment, and then patted Kushina’s head and said: "Kushina, no one is immortal. I can’t stay with you till the end. I’m very happy to be with you until now."

After a while, Mito smiled and said, "Kushinna, you can help me get the scroll. I put it at Tsunade."

Kyoshinna nodded, she knew that Grandma Mito was going to say a few words with Chen alone.

The room became a little quiet. Mito opened the quilt and motioned to Uchiha Tatsumi to help her up.

Mito stood up, and the long skirts of the whirlpool clan lifted up, like a water lily with its complicated petals.

She walked to the table and asked Uchiha Tatsumi to sit down.

"Chen, do you know what the tail beast is?"

"I know."

The word 　　tail beast is among ninjas, and it is not a secret. The first generation of adults divided the tail beast, which is recorded in history books.

"People want to use the power of the tail beast, and then use the human as a container to seal the tail beast in the body. This is the human pillar power." Mito continued.

"Then do you know what Kushina came to Konoha for?"

"Is it to become the Kyuubi Jouri?" Uchiha Tatsumi hesitated and replied.

"That's right. It was to succeed me as the second Kyuubi Jouri."

"Actually, Human Zhuli is very painful. A beast is sealed in his body, and he may have to endure the cold eyes and strange eyes of others. I made Jiu Xinna a Human Zhuli, do you hate me?"

Uchiha Tatsuno shook his head. The nine tails represent power. If you master the power of the nine tails, you can protect yourself. There is no need for Uchiha Tatsumi to hate Mito.

Mito laughed, "Do you know why I told you so many things? Although these are top secrets of the village, I believe in love even more. Based on your relationship with Kushina sooner or later Will know this."

"As a nine-tailed person, I have the ability to distinguish between good and evil. I can feel that you are different from most people. And you are very talented. Your future strength will not be weak, you will have Enough strength to protect Jiu Xinnai and prevent her from getting hurt."

"The most important thing is that Renzhuli is more sensitive than ordinary people and lacks love. If you want to live happily, you need someone to take care of Renzhuli."

"Konoha can protect Kushina's safety, but it can't fill the void in her heart."

"So I want to ask you, after I die, you can continue to take care of Jiuxinai for me."

.........................

When Uchiha Tatsumi walked out of the hut, Kushina was sitting on the steps of the corridor, with his hands on his knees, silently watching the distant night view.

Because it was already night and it rained again during the day, the air was slightly cold. Looking over from the yard, you can just see Hokage Rock.

Uchiha Tatsun sat down next to Kushina.

"Actually, I was a lie..." Kushina choked and said, "I'm scared."

"I have witnessed so many relatives die when I was in Uchao Village. I thought I could be strong, but in fact there was no... Granny Mito was killed by me. If it weren't for me, she could still live for a while. Time."

Uchiha Tatsun held the girl silently, while the girl kept crying, and time seemed to stagnate at this moment.

............................

A week later, Uzumaki Mito passed away in his courtyard. Jiu Xin Na became the second generation of Zhu Li.

An era is finally over.
