"Sometimes we are in a bad mood just because we haven't eaten!"
Xingjulang raised his arms and pointed to the hotel restaurant where the smoke was coming from the kitchen.
"Everyone, let's go eat something first and then think about other things!
"When you are in a good mood, anything you do becomes easy! No matter how difficult it is, it seems easy!"
"Ouch!"
They are just children and are easily infected by emotions.
In addition, since they woke up yesterday afternoon, they haven't eaten any serious food yet. At this time, their hearts are opened, their appetites are unavoidable, and they rush away immediately.
After a while, the innkeeper's exclamation rang out over there.
Seeing that the oldest boy was about to follow, Anjuro stopped him.
"If it's surgery, it's best to keep it fasting!"
He smiled and said, "When the operation is completed, I will bring the food to you.
"We will eat together then! But before that, I will wait for you to wake up with an empty stomach!"
"Thanks……"
The young man whispered, his face flushed with embarrassment.
After all, he was looking for life and death a few minutes ago, but now he was excited for food, which seemed like his stance was not firm. Especially since Anjuro seemed to be younger than him, this emotion was even more intense.
"Don't be embarrassed, face the change of your mind calmly!
“It’s really unmanly to stick to wrong ideas for the sake of face!”
Anjuro patted his vest, as if power was injected into the boy's body, and the latter's eyes became visibly firm.
"I see."
Xingjulang paused and then asked: "I haven't asked yet, what is your name?"
"Yasujiro." The boy hesitated for a while, "I don't have a last name."
Except for those like Tsunade who deliberately concealed their surnames, most people without surnames did so because their ancestors had a low status. But the word "purgatory" of Anjiro Purgatory is hard to forget when he hears it, so Anjiro talks about himself
I am somewhat sensitive when it comes to my name.
"Then that's how I'll call you, Anjiro! You can also call me Anjiro!"
Anjuro looked towards the direction of the living room, "Let's go, before the operation, let's go say hello to Miss Shizune who will perform the operation on you!"
Seeing them walking towards her, Shizune unconsciously stood up holding Dodo in her arms.
Although they only got along with each other for a few days, she not only had a deep affection for the child, but also respected him from the bottom of her heart.
This respect is not because Anjuro is kind, but because he really does what he says.
Obviously he has shouldered a lot of responsibilities and was so busy trying to make money that he didn't even have time to sleep, but he could still take care of everyone's feelings. Even Tsunade-sama, who had always spoken harshly to him, Anjuro never blamed him, and even said it every day.
They all came to her for dinner.
Shizune had never seen this kind of generosity that could tolerate everything, even in the Hokage.
When the three of them met, Anjiro and Shizune hadn't spoken yet. The boy named Anjiro immediately bowed deeply to Shizune: "I'm sorry! I caused you trouble yesterday!"
He naturally said that after waking up, he refused Shizune's examination and wanted to drag his sick body away from here.
"It doesn't have to be like this. I'm glad you can figure it out."
Shizune couldn't help but be surprised. In less than twenty-four hours, a person's mental outlook suddenly changed drastically, and she was also surprised. But Anjuro beside him just smiled brightly.
Being able to face your own mistakes is the first step to facing reality.
This shows that Yasujiro did listen to what he just said.
After the three of them sat down again, Anjuro asked: "Miss Shizune, I just saw the doctor go out?"
"Um……"
Speaking of this, Shizune showed a trace of embarrassment on her face, but she couldn't tell the truth. She could only cover for the teacher and said: "Tsunade-sama is eager to go to the next town, so she takes the first step. Today I will give
This child must leave here immediately after the operation. She cannot be kept waiting for too long, so I can only trouble you for the rest."
Different from the past feeling of being impatient to leave a place to avoid debts, Shizune wanted to stay for a while this time, but the situation really did not allow it. Moreover, she could also understand the reason why Tsunade-sama wanted to leave as soon as possible.
"It's such a pity that I didn't even have a chance to say goodbye to the doctor!"
Xingjuro's tone was a little regretful, but he immediately became positive again, "But it doesn't matter! I will tell these children what the doctor has done for them, and everyone will remember her!"
Shizune smiled reluctantly.
As long as Tsunade-sama leaves this country and starts drinking again, it will only be a matter of time before she forgets about this matter.
She didn't need to think about it to know that leaving this "firecracker head" brat behind was definitely one of the things Tsunade-sama wanted to do most right now.
When Anjurou had been with them for less than a day, he wanted to solve something that Shizune had not been able to do for more than ten years. Although Tsunade-sama's time without drinking was only a short day, Shizune could feel that she was sober.
Tsunade-hime is completely different from that drunken woman who doesn't care about anything.
She just hopes that Lady Tsunade will not break her bet with Anjurou when no one is around her.
After all, she already owed so much gambling debt, so what difference did it make if she owed more.
"Okay, let's deal with the surgery first."
Shizune changed the subject, and Anjuro stopped asking about Tsunade.
"Yasujiro, among the six of us, the sansho fish venom sac on your body is the most unstable of all."
Shizune showed her professional attitude as a doctor and explained carefully: "In order to wake you up, I used more than twice the amount of antidote that other people used. If I didn't do this, I wouldn't be sure to operate on you. But.
Now that you're awake, I'm going to ask you some questions, and you just need to answer me as best you can."
Yasujiro subconsciously looked at Anjuro, feeling a little nervous.
Anjuro doesn't know much about medical skills, but Giyuu also told Kaname Kaname that if necessary, this child can remove the poison sac before the toxin is completely absorbed. If he waits for seven days, the variables will increase.
.
It sounds like it's not far from Shizune's judgment.
"You can ask, but my knowledge is very limited."
Yasujiro gradually calmed down under Anjuro's encouraging eyes.
Shizune: "Okay. Let me ask you first, when were you taken away by Yu Ren? Do you still remember?"
Yasujiro: "It's early January."
There was a look of surprise in Shizune's eyes.
According to Anjuro, it should have been shortly after the transplant experiment started. In other words, Yasujiro was actually a veteran-level "experimental subject."
"Did you implant this thing immediately?"
"Well, they said this will make me a very powerful ninja."
Recalling the scene at that time, Anjiro's face turned slightly blue, "I stayed in a prison-like room for two or three days, ate six or seven meals, and then fainted."
The doubt on Shizune's face became more and more obvious.
"Miss Shizune, is there any problem?" Anjuro asked.
"Um……"
Shizune did not hesitate and said immediately: "Judging from the fluctuations in Anjiro's body temperature when he was unconscious, his adaptability to the poison sac is very poor. Before I detoxified him, I used a stethoscope to judge that the poison sac in Anjiro's body was absorbing him
When the toxins in the body are overloaded, it is obviously in a state of overload and is about to explode. Normally speaking, with the adaptability he shows, it is impossible for him to last for so long..."
Anjiro couldn't quite understand what Shizune meant, so he could only stay aside quietly, not even knowing whether his situation was good or bad.
"Will it affect the outcome of the surgery?"
This is the issue that Anjuro is most concerned about.
"After the poison is detoxified, the operation will be much easier. But he has had the poison sac implanted for too long, and it has become a part of his body. Once I break his skin, it may cause the poison sac to automatically react defensively.
The resulting toxins flowed back into his body and were sprayed out in the form of breath."
Shizune thought about it for a while, "To be on the safe side, I need to prepare a few more antidotes, so it should be foolproof."
"Sorry for your trouble!"
Xingshou Lang sat upright and said sincerely: "Although you have always regarded yourself as an apprentice, among the doctors I have seen, there are only a few who can be as responsible as you! I believe that you will definitely shine in the future.
!”
"……Thank you."
Her medical skills were finally recognized by someone she admired - even though she was just a child - Shizune's eyes were still a little moist.
Although Tsunade-sama is very responsible when teaching medical skills, it is difficult for her to say anything good when she is drunk. Such praise is very precious to Shizune.
Shizune went into the house to prepare medicine, while Anjiro held Dodo in his arms and talked with Anjiro, hoping to make the latter relax as much as possible. Dodo seemed to like the warm feeling on Anjiro's body, and lay limply.
Lying down.
…
at the same time.
Tsunade was walking towards the inn outside Heli Town with heavy thoughts.
Her face was full of contemplation and her eyebrows were lowered. The men who usually dared to whistle because of her beauty on the street took one look at her today and immediately turned their heads.
This is a very correct choice.
Because this Tsunade-hime from Konoha was trying to find a target and punch her hard to drive away the firecracker-headed brat and the voice that kept echoing in her mind.
【As long as we don’t lose ourselves, our deceased relatives will know that they haven’t lost us either.】
【Never let this power be shelved or abandoned just because you are stuck in the quagmire of sadness.】
[If your deceased relatives knew that after your death you were in such a state of despair that life would be worse than death, would they be able to find peace? 】
Unaccompanied, Tsunade relies on the stimulation of gambling and the anesthesia of alcohol. She has not thought of her relatives for a long time. Even if she does, alcohol will help her dispel them.
But unfortunately, in this small town, I met such a kid——
His red and yellow hair color looks like a mix of his grandmother Mito Uzumaki and his brother Nawaki.
His cheerful character and optimistic attitude are very much like his grandfather Senju Hashirama, whose face has been blurred in his memory.
When Anjuro looked at her, his caring eyes reminded her of her father and mother.
The most important thing is that the person who is full of confidence and talks about saving lives is more like the young Tsunade herself.
Sure enough, when she first saw this kid, she didn't like him, and there was a very reasonable reason for that.
It was almost like the ghosts of her past had merged into one big living person and wanted to keep her in peace.
After walking, Tsunade arrived at the restaurant of the inn and found a low table to sit down at.
She is waiting for Shizune here.
The owner of the store came over and said, "Guest, do you want to eat or drink tea?"
Tsunade squeezed her fingers and hesitated for a while, then finally put her hand to her forehead and ordered in a shy voice: "Bring me the wine."
There's no way, there's still a long time left today.
"Ah, but it's still morning -"
His voice was cut off by Tsunade's glare.
"...Here, the sake we provide to our guests hasn't been delivered yet. Can you look at the beer?"
The boss rubbed his hands and gave a big smile, "It's our local brand, and there is a lottery now. The more you buy, the greater the possibility of winning."
"Um?"
lottery?
The beer that satisfied Tsunade's two hobbies at the same time caught her attention. A light appeared in her eyes, but it quickly went out.
After all, she still didn't make up her mind to break the agreement, so she waved her hand: "Let's have a bottle first."
"Just come."
Soon, a bottle of beer with exquisite packaging was placed on the table. The boss said: "The results of the lottery are written on the inside of the bottle cap. If you win the first prize, you will get a bonus of 10,000 taels. The second prize is 5,000 taels. Three
The winning prize is one thousand taels. The chance of winning is very high. You can redeem it on the spot and we can go to the manufacturer for reimbursement. Do you want me to open it for you?"
"I will do it myself."
Tsunade waved and the boss left, but she had no intention of opening the bottle. Instead, she stared at the exquisite bottle, with her face reflected on it——
The eyes when you are twenty, the lips when you are twenty, the bridge of your nose when you are twenty, the hairstyle when you are twenty...
Only the slightly cowardly look in her eyes was completely different from the confident look she had when she was twenty, and she had hardly made any progress over the years.
She held the bottle and laughed angrily at the idea that she actually wanted to go back on her bet with a child.
The two people have similar experiences, and his actual age is even seven or eight times that of the child. But he can cheer up and take care of others, but he has no time to take care of himself. He can hesitate for a long time and hesitate for a long time when he sees something red.
I can’t imagine how grandpa, grandma, and Shengshu would feel if they could really see their current appearance in another world.
The shame of the long future and the guilt for her family occupied Tsunade's heart.
She rested her forehead on the top of the wine bottle, staring blankly at the reflection of the neck of the bottle. She remained motionless for an unknown amount of time, looking at the boss's face from time to time with a look of worry.
It's becoming more and more obvious. I wonder what this guest wants to do?
Suddenly, the reflection in Tsunade's eyes suddenly changed into the shape of a rope tree, and he shouted: "Sister!", which woke Tsunade out of her trance.
She sat up as if waking up from a dream, only to find that there were many people in the restaurant. Unknowingly, it was already noon.
"This guy Shizune, why is he so slow..."
Tsunade calmed down and frowned as she looked at the bottle of wine, she no longer had the desire to drink it.
Just to kill time, and to relieve the itching of her hands after not gambling for a few days, she raised her fingers and opened the bottle cap.
When the boss came out of the back room, a full bottle of beer was placed on the table, but Tsunade was nowhere to be seen, and there was no money on the table.
"What's going on? The bottle has been opened, so even if you haven't drank it, you can't stop paying for it?"
The boss frowned and walked to the table. He only glanced at it and suddenly opened his mouth like a blooming chrysanthemum.
The words "Second Prize" were written on the inside of the bottle cap, and the prize was a total of five thousand taels.

Let me tell you in advance, it is impossible for a pillar to actually work for a certain ninja village.
