บท 240: The Impending Doom
The Rain Country was located in the basin, and the northwest was the plateau of the Earth Country. The southwest was the mountain range that pierced through the Wind Country.
The warm and humid air from the north and south of the continent of the Ninja Realm was trapped here after arriving in the Rain Country.
The cold wind in the northwest passed through the gap between the plateau and the mountain range and met the warm air flow in the Rain Country.
This was also the reason why the Rain Country had heavy rain all year round.
Boom ---
In the evening, the sky was covered with dense clouds, and lightning cut through the haze in the sky like a poisonous snake.
In a small village at the border of the Rain Country and the Wind Country.
Because of the war, the villagers here temporarily moved elsewhere.
Under the dim yellow sky, there was only one house that was still lit up.
The warm yellow bedside lamp shone on the narrow bedroom.
Outside the window, the rain was quietly weaving a thin gauze that was like smoke and fog, covering the sky and the earth.
A little boy with silver hair leaned in the woman's arms with a pale face, staring at the comic book in the woman's hand.
He did not know most of the words in the comic book, so he could only look at the illustrations and imagine the scene in the book from the woman's words.
"The little duck swam like this. Finally, it came ashore and found the duck mother."
The woman had just finished speaking when the little duck found the duck mother. The little boy held the woman's hands more tightly.
"Cough cough ---" The little boy showed a painful look and coughed heavily.
The woman immediately put down the comic book in a panic and patted his back with her palm. She said with a distressed face,
"Is it starting to hurt again? Dad should be coming back soon. There will be medicine later."
The little boy nodded with a pale face. He looked up at the woman and said, "Mom, am I going to die?"
The woman shook her head and forced a smile. She gently stroked her back and said,
"No, you just need to rest and you will get better soon."
The little boy's eyes were misty. He stared at the woman's eyes seriously and said with a crying voice,
"When I die, you must be as obedient as me and accompany you for me."
The woman felt something stuck in her throat and held the little boy in her arms.
She slowly shed tears and forced a smile.
"Don't think about it. You will soon... get better."
"Cough cough ---"
Listening to the weak cough of the little boy in her arms, the woman felt a heart-wrenching pain.
The little boy had a rare disease, and the old doctors in the village were helpless. They could not even find out the cause of the disease.
At the beginning, the family conditions were not very good, and they thought that they would recover slowly. The disease would always heal itself.
However, when the little boy turned three years old, his condition quickly worsened.
He could not walk normally,
He could not stand in the wind or bask in the sun.
Coincidentally, during this period of time, the third Ninja World War had begun. The villagers had all left.
However, in order to accompany the child for the last journey, the parents of the family chose to stay.
Not long later, they heard heavy footsteps coming from outside the house.
"Squeak ---"
"Dad is here to buy medicine. You will get better soon."
When the woman heard the sound of the door opening, a look of hope appeared in her eyes. She quickly got up and went to welcome him.
However, when the woman came to the living room, she saw that her husband was drenched in rain.
His hands were empty as he stood at the door. His eyes were red and his face was haggard.
The man just lowered his head like this, as if he didn't dare to look at his wife.
The hope in the woman's eyes faded, and she said softly,
"Have the people from the other villages moved away as well?"
The man did not reply. He slowly squatted down, one hand on his knee, and one hand on his forehead. He nodded silently.
The woman pursed her lips, took a deep breath, and choked,
"It doesn't matter if you can't buy it. Go and see the child."
The man sighed silently and stood up with his shoe cabinet. He dragged his tired body to the bedroom door.
Then he raised his head and took a deep breath. He patted his cheek and smoothed his messy hair. He pulled himself together and walked in with a smile.
The little boy had been staring at the bedroom door. Seeing his father walk in with a relaxed face, he immediately opened his hands and shouted,
"Dad."
The man came to the bed and wiped his pants with his right hand without leaving a trace. Then he reached out and gently rubbed the little boy's silver-gray hair.
The little boy narrowed his eyes and his face was filled with a cheerful smile.
The woman leaned against the bedroom door and watched this scene. Her heart was slightly sour.
He gently wiped the tears that were about to overflow and said softly,
"I've been tired for a day. I'm going to cook."
The man withdrew his right hand when he heard this. He turned around and walked to his wife. He held her hand and looked at her belly.
"I'll go. You have to take care of yourself."
The woman looked down slightly and then nodded.
The man looked back at the little boy and then silently went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
"Dada..."
The heavy sound of cutting vegetables came from the kitchen.
"Woo ---"
The wind rose, and it seemed that someone was pushing the window hard.
The rain was shaking in the wind, and it was getting denser and stronger. It had become a downpour.
The originally misty water vapor seemed to be blown away by the wind, and the world outside the window became dim and clear.
The man put down the kitchen knife and went to the kitchen window. He reached out his hand and was about to close the window.
Suddenly, the man's eyes narrowed. He saw abnormal flames in the distant forest.
"Oh no, this is a ninja's ninjutsu."
The man quickly closed the window and then closed all the lights in the room.
The woman came out of the little boy's bedroom and asked with a puzzled face, "What's wrong?"
The man said with a serious face, "Hide. I saw a ninja fighting in the distance."
The two of them quickly acted together. The man was responsible for closing the doors and windows and closing the curtains. The woman was responsible for wrapping the little boy in a quilt and putting him in the narrow wardrobe.
"No matter what happens later, you can't make a sound, understand?"
Although the little boy did not understand what happened, he still nodded sensibly.
The wardrobe was dark, and the little boy felt a little scared.
Fortunately, there was still a gap in the wardrobe door, and the little boy could see the scene in the bedroom through the gap.
He only saw his mother hurriedly leave the bedroom and close the bedroom door.
After the sound of the door closing faded, the whole room fell into a dead silence.
Time passed by bit by bit.
The little boy gradually fell asleep.
"Bang!"
The violent kicking of the door woke the little boy from his sleep.
But he remembered his mother's instructions to him before that he could not go out no matter what happened.
He immediately shrank into the quilt wrapped around him and stared at the gap in the wardrobe.
However, he heard the sound of rummaging through boxes and cabinets outside the bedroom, as well as the strange conversation.
What kind of weather is this? It's always raining.
It's either a heavy rain or a light rain. I'm about to get moldy.
"This place is already considered good. We're close to the Wind Nation. We can still see a few sunny days."
"Let's find something to eat. I'm going to vomit from eating the military grain pills."
"Captain, there's someone here. Look at the vegetables on the kitchen plates that have just been cut."
"Kuzuo, check them with your perception ninjutsu. Find them out and ask for information."
"Yes, Captain."
"Fellow Ninjas, I'm sorry. I just slept for a while and didn't find you."
For a moment, the little boy heard his father's familiar voice.
