Chapter 118 Four Elders
Early in the morning, after a simple wash, Beimu came to the commercial street.
"Doctor Beimu, why didn't you go to the hospital today?"
A young woman selling vegetables greeted Beimu enthusiastically after seeing him.
"It's the sun umbrella. I have a day off today. Today's dishes look pretty fresh."
Looking at the sun umbrella in front of him, Beimu smiled and nodded in response, then squatted down to check the vegetables that the other party had placed.
After selecting some seasonal vegetables, Beimu went straight to the meat stall and bought some raw meat.
Combined with his meticulous appearance, no matter who you look at him, he is a single man who lives an extremely self-disciplined life.
"Bei Mu, male, 28 years old, came to Konoha as a refugee ten years ago, and settled in the residential area after passing the review."
On the treetops in the distance, Uchiha Shinichi held Beimu's identity information in his hand, trying hard to find the flaws in it.
Hinata Yong on the side widened his eyes and stared at Beimu's every move.
"Gone far away."
Hinata Yong nudged Uchiha Shinichi, who was still flipping through the documents, with his elbow and reminded him that the target was about to leave his sight.
"Go, follow!"
After Hinata Yong's reminder, Uchiha Shinichi put away the information and jumped towards another big tree.
After several jumps, the distance between the two sides became closer.
"Shinichi, isn't this distance a little too close?"
As the distance between the two sides continued to close, Hinata Yong, contrary to his usual courageous character, spoke in a worried tone.
"You don't understand, I deliberately revealed some traces for him to see."
Uchiha Shinichi looked indifferent to Hinata Yong's worries.
"If he is a spy, he will be scared and run away when he sees us, and we can capture him directly."
"What if he doesn't run?"
"Anyone who doesn't run must be a well-trained spy. We must take him down even more."
In short, after seeing this Beimu for the first time, Uchiha Shinichi determined that the other party was a spy lurking in Konoha.
As the sound of leaves rustling deliberately made by the two people fell into Beimu's ears, although his steps were steady, a barely noticeable drop of cold sweat appeared on Beimu's forehead.
Have you exposed yourself?
Or is it just a routine screening?
After all, according to the information he had sent back online, the Konoha ninja seemed to have suffered a great loss, and it was expected that the other party would screen the village.
Therefore, Beimu, who had rich experience in working behind enemy lines, took the initiative to go into silence after sending out the last piece of intelligence.
Calm down, must be calm.
Beimu kept cheering himself up in his heart and greeted the villagers he knew around him as usual.
"Look, this is a well-trained spy. He must be a big fish."
Seeing that Beimu didn't react, Uchiha Shinichi reached for the short blade behind him, ready to take him down in one fell swoop where there were few people.
In a teahouse not far away, four men of advanced age were sitting in a private room with exquisite tea sets in front of them.
They are the three former elders of the Hyuga clan, the great elder Hyuga Munakata, the third elder Hyuga Hajime, the fourth elder Hyuga Makoto, and the former second elder of the Uchiha clan Uchiha Akira.
Ever since they were deposed from their positions as elders by their respective families, the few people who originally disliked each other now felt sorry for each other, perhaps because they were in the same boat.
In short, after a conversation, they found that they were unexpectedly in sync.
Therefore, teahouse gatherings have become a must-do activity for them every day.
"I heard that Qingshui took your elite tribesmen to the front line?"
After drinking the tea in the bowl, Uchiha Ming curiously asked the three people in front of him.
"There is such a thing."
Hinata Munakata nodded and spun the tea bowl in his hand.
The Uchiha clan is indeed a group of barbaric guys, and they even drink tea so rudely.
Closing their eyes, Hyuga Munakata and the others tried their best to force themselves not to look at Uchiha Ming's poor way of tasting tea.
As the Hyuga clan that attaches the most importance to traditional culture in the village, the members of the main family first learned not the family secrets, but various classical etiquette.
"It seems like you three old guys aren't that strong. I haven't even brought you there yet."
Ridicule, naked ridicule.
"As if you are strong enough, I heard that when Danzo brought people to your place, you were the first one to back down."
Before Hyuga Munakata could speak, Hyuga Hajime spoke first and retorted.
The story of Uchiha Ming sliding to his knees at the speed of light when facing four Root ninjas began to spread among the major families in the village at some point.
It soon became a hot topic of conversation.
"As if you weren't scared at all, I heard that you and Hinata Makoto were strangled and dragged away by Danzo. You are more than ten years older than him, so you can't stand being beaten?"
As time went by, Uchiha Akira's emotions changed from anger at first, to shame, then to calmness, and finally to the current state of desperation, as his not-so-glorious deeds spread out. It only took a few months in total.
Therefore, he quickly came up with a plan to counterattack and brought out the other party's "heroic deeds".
"You old bastard!"
The incident of being strangled by Danzo and carried away has always been a thorn in Hinata Hajime's side. He tossed and turned all night, but just couldn't figure it out.
I am obviously a master of physical skills, so why can't I even defeat Danzo?
Therefore, Uchiha Ming's counterattack obviously hit Hinata Hajime's sore spot.
"Why, are you talking about the pain of your cataract?"
"As if your red-eye disease is so powerful, I am facing Danzo himself after all. You don't even have a chance to fight Danzo."
"Do you want to test whether my kunai is sharp?"
"My kunai isn't bad either!"
Seeing that the two were about to fight, Hyuga Munakata hurriedly protected the tea set and tried to stop them.
"Okay, stop arguing. You two are both pretty weak."
These are all my treasures collected over the years, I can't let these guys destroy them.
"What, we're cooking?"
Uchiha Ming, who originally wanted to teach Hinata Hajime a lesson, suddenly became unhappy and turned his attention to Hinata Munakata.
Hinata Hajime and Hinata Makoto also looked at each other unfriendly.
The clan has been abolished, why are you still acting like a great elder?
"What are you looking at? I was invited to the Root by Danzo after all."
Seeing that the three people were looking at him, Hyuga Munakata glared at them, and his momentum was no less than that of the other three.
"Yes, that's right. We invited you over. We not only invited you to drink tea, but also to eat dragon fruit."
After Hyuga Munakata was diagnosed with a "sudden illness", Hyuga Hajime and Hyuga Makoto were also "invited" to the Anbu, and naturally they knew how Hyuga Munakata became ill.
The illness was quite serious. His face was swollen like a pig's head and the corners of his mouth were full of dragon fruit juice.
