Chapter 429 Maybe I am really your uncle begging for the moon
When Xianglin woke up faintly, night had fallen.
The fire set up in front of her and the aroma coming from her made her somewhat confused brain wake up instantly!
"Are you awake? Come and have something to eat."
Xianglin quickly looked over and found that the person sitting by the fire roasting animal meat and fish was actually a person she didn't know at all.
Young and handsome, with just one glance, Xianglin felt her heartbeat begin to speed up.
But she suddenly realized, where is that middle-aged uncle? Why did he suddenly change to a different person?
Could it be that she was sold again?
Xianglin's mood instantly dropped, she didn't speak or eat, she just stared blankly at the fire.
She never thought about escaping, because in this unknown forest, she had basically no fighting ability and it was impossible for her to escape alive. And even if she escaped, what would happen?
Just when Xianglin was confused about her future, a grilled fish was suddenly handed to her.
"You fainted from hunger before, so you should eat some grilled fish to cushion your stomach first. There is a lot of meat. When you are full, I will tell you some things and give you a few choices." Qingyu tried to keep his tone down.
sound so as not to scare the other person.
However, after seeing Xiang Lin looking at him a little scared and hesitant to speak, Qing Yu seemed to know what the problem was, so he showed a very helpless expression.
Transformation!
"If this look makes you feel more at ease..."
Qingyu immediately turned into the middle-aged man Xianglin had seen before, and then spoke.
Xianglin's eyes first became brighter, and then suddenly dimmed, "It turns out it's just a transformation technique. I should have thought of it earlier. How could you be my uncle?"
Although the family's surprise was shattered, at least for now, the other party didn't have any ill intentions towards her.
"That's not necessarily true." Qingyu suddenly said, "There is a child about the same age as you who is my little brother. If there are no accidents, you two should be of the same race, so I can't say you are really
You have to call me uncle."
Xianglin was stunned for a moment, "Same race... do you know my life experience?"
"No one told you?"
Xianglin shook her head, showing a sad look, "My mother died of illness a few years ago, and she never told me this."
Aoyu tried hard to think back, and it seemed that Xiang Rin had never known her last name. It was not until Hashirama and Tobirama, who were reincarnated from the dirty soil, saw her during the final battle that they confirmed that she was a survivor of the Uzumaki clan.
.
Xiang Rin's mother did not reveal this secret until her death, probably because she was worried that the surname Uzumaki would bring undue disaster to Xiang Rin. After all, the Uzumaki clan has been exterminated, and hiding one's name is the safest way.
Qingyu almost guessed Xianglin's mother's good intentions.
It's just the peculiarity of Xianglin's physique that she is destined not to become an ordinary person.
Thinking of this, Qingyu couldn't help but rub Xianglin's messy red hair, and said with a sincere smile: "Eat first, I will tell you what you want to know later."
Apart from her mother, this was the first time someone touched her head so gently...
Xianglin suddenly blushed, then lowered her head and ate the grilled fish in small bites.
It smells so good~
Xianglin's eyes lit up immediately, and she speeded up her eating.
Perhaps because she felt that she was a little too rude, she stopped and secretly looked up at Qingyu, and found that the other person's expression had not changed at all. He still had a warm smile, and then she continued to eat from her hands with a sore nose.
grilled fish.
As I ate, tears flowed out unsatisfactorily...
Although the future Xianglin is a fiery, stubborn, duplicitous, 'female man' who expresses the likes and dislikes of others very directly.
But before developing such a character, Xianglin was just a sensitive, timid, and unconfident little girl.
She has already faced the world's malice towards her at a young age. Especially after she lost her only support, everyone regarded her as a 'tool'. This was the first time she felt the warmth from a 'stranger'.
.
Qingyu naturally noticed this, but he pretended not to know, because sometimes crying would make him feel better.
And comfort may not necessarily be effective, especially when the two of them are not so familiar with each other, and Xianglin is still very sensitive.
So he chose to turn a blind eye and let Xiang Lin vent her pain happily.
Sure enough, after crying, Xianglin felt much better, and then... felt even hungrier.
The Uzumaki clan's appetite is huge, and Xiang Rin has been malnourished for a long time and is short and skinny. It is impossible for him to eat even a grilled fish.
Fortunately, Qingyu was more discerning at the moment, so he silently handed over another grilled fish, and then started to eat it himself.
This approach of not putting too much pressure on her made Xianglin finally relax.
So the rest of the process was very quiet. Whenever Xianglin finished eating what he was holding, Qingyu would hand over some grilled fish or meat in a timely manner without saying a word.
It wasn't until Xianglin was finally full and burped that he released the seal and swept away all the remaining food like a whirlwind.
After adding some wood to the fire, Qingyu pondered for a moment and said, "Have you ever heard of the Kingdom of Whirlpool?"
Xianglin shook her head, but her eyes brightened. She had a hunch that the mystery of her mother's life experience that she refused to tell would soon be revealed.
Qingyu didn't feel strange when he saw this, and just told the story according to what he learned, "In the southeast of the Country of Fire, there used to be a country by the sea, called the Country of Whirlpool. This country was formed by the Whirlpool
The Uzumaki clan was founded by a clan, and the characteristics of the Uzumaki clan are red hair, an amazing amount of chakra, a physique that is different from ordinary people, and are very good at sealing techniques..."
As Qingyu spoke, Xianglin gradually showed a nervous expression and clenched her hands tightly.
Until she heard that the Uzumaki Kingdom had been destroyed and the Uzumaki clan had completely become history, with only a handful of survivors fleeing, a look of extreme sadness suddenly appeared in her eyes.
It turns out that she was a child born to a survivor of the Uzumaki clan. No wonder her mother never mentioned her last name.
But what about dad?
What about her father whom she has not seen since she was born?
Were they killed by their enemies, or did they abandon their mother and daughter and run away?
Why did she never have a last name?
Is it because my father is also from the Uzumaki clan?
Or is it that the man who abandoned them doesn't deserve to have his children bear his surname?
Xianglin felt that her head was in a mess for a while, and her eyes were very confused.
