Chapter 531: Seal of Opposition and Seal of Reconciliation
"The Valley of the End?"
After Xi Yan followed the "cheap teacher" out of the village, she went straight to the Valley of the End not far from the village.
Boom! !
The waterfall was rushing, violently hitting the rocks at the bottom of the valley, making a sound like thunder.
Two majestic stone statues stood on both sides of the waterfall, their feet firmly standing at the bottom of the valley, their chests flush with the waterfall, and a pair of stone eyes quietly staring at each other.
The craftsmen carefully carved the unique armor of the Warring States Period on the stone statues, and when shaping the gestures of the stone statues, I don't know if it was intentional, but they put the index and middle fingers of the two stone statues together in front of their faces.
This detail makes them look not like mortal enemies, but like a pair of friends ready to learn from each other.
"No matter how many times I come, it's still so shocking!"
At this time, Xi Yan walked to the railing and stopped. She looked at the statue of Senju Hashirama, her eyes full of admiration. "The tailed beast jade sent by the Nine-tail was bounced by Hashirama and broke through the cliff into the lake, causing a violent explosion.
Later, Hashirama defeated Madara and killed his former friend, protecting the peace of Konoha. The canyon blasted by the tailed beast jade was called the Valley of the End by the world after the village was repaired."
While speaking, she also noticed the strange hand gestures of the two stone statues.
This hand gesture has a special meaning in Konoha, because it is the starting hand gesture of the "Seal of Reconciliation". At the same time, it is also called the "Seal of Opposition". Before the two ninjas compete, they make the "Seal of Opposition" to indicate that they will fight next.
After the battle, the two sides make the "Seal of Opposition" again, but this time the "Seals of Opposition" of the two people have to be combined to become the "Seal of Reconciliation", symbolizing that they are partners.
The sculptures of Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha in the Valley of the End are the seals of opposition.
Looking at the statues of the two, Xi Yan slowly put her hair behind her ears, as if asking Asuka, or as if talking to herself, "Do they make this seal before the battle? Or after the battle?
Are they friends?
True enemies will not make this seal before the fight, and if they make this seal, no matter what the final result of the battle between the two, they must make the "Seal of Reconciliation."
Her inquiring eyes slowly fell on Asuka Uchiha, as if she wanted to get an answer from him.
This is not only the answer that has troubled her for many years, but also the answer that has troubled the villagers of Konoha for many years. From the moment the Valley of the End was completed, this doubt has always remained in everyone's mind.
Did those two people make the "Seal of Reconciliation"? !
Asuka's eyes slowly fell on the two statues in front of him, and the figure of Madara Uchiha emerged in his memory.
Until the moment of death, the old figure was not angry with Hashirama Senju, nor did he regard Hashirama Senju as an enemy. Everything he did was just for the plan in his heart.
"For the childhood dream, the ninja's paradise was built, and the ninja village was born in pursuit of peace. This is the Konoha Ninja Village."
"They both have absolute strength and beautiful visions of the future."
Speaking of this, he turned his head to look at Xi Yan, his mouth slightly raised, and smiled, "Do you know? Uchiha Madara, who was spurned by Konoha and feared by the ninja world, is actually for peace!!"
"Two guys with the same goal may have reconciled at a certain moment we don't know."
Xi Yan blinked in confusion.
This is different from what she learned from history books.
History books say that at the end of the Warring States period, many people in the Uchiha clan were tired of war and surrendered to Senju of the Forest, and Uchiha Madara was defeated by Hashirama Senju, and was finally moved by Hashirama's behavior and joined Konoha.
Later, Uchiha Madara defected, and returned riding the Nine-Tails several years later to destroy Konoha, which led to the Battle of the Valley of the End.
"I'll tell you a secret"
Looking at the doubt in Xi Yan's eyes, Fei Niao hooked his finger at her and said mysteriously, "Do you know? A long time ago, probably before Konoha was built, Madara discovered the flaw of the Wood Release Clone."
Hearing this, Xi Yan's curiosity became more intense.
She looked up at the "cheap teacher" who came to her side, and asked in a low voice.
"The Wood Release Clone of the First Generation? What flaw?"
"The Wood Release Clone of the First Generation Hokage lacks a kind of temperament. An idiotic temperament"
Fei Niao scratched his head and explained in detail, "You may not understand it because you haven't met the First Generation. The First Generation has a very idiotic temperament, and Madara can feel this temperament."
Tsk! !
Xi Yan curled her lips in disdain.
Although she had never seen the Shodaime, she knew with a little thought that the dignified God of the Ninja Realm could not have the temperament of an idiot.
"Really!
This was something that Madara told me secretly when I was having dinner with him.
He said that when he was in the Valley of the End, he had actually discovered the Wood Release Clone a long time ago, but he didn't want to continue fighting with Hashirama. If he continued to fight, the food in his stomach would be digested, so he simply exposed his flaws and was stabbed to death."
Seeing the "cheap teacher" looking like he was afraid that he wouldn't believe her, Xi Yan rolled her eyes and said in a cold voice with a bit of silence.
"Yes!! Yes!!
You had dinner with Uchiha Madara who had been dead for decades!!"
Asuka nodded, and then added.
"We also took a bath together!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Xi Yan rolled her eyes, then turned her head away, and the words "Don't talk to idiots" were almost written on her face.
"We really took a bath together!"
After Asuka emphasized in a low voice, he looked up at the majestic waterfall in front of him.
When he left Nanga Shrine, he discussed with Uchiha Sasuke where to practice. After discussion, the two chose the Valley of the End, not far from Konoha, as the place for practice.
Because of the Chunin Exam, there were a lot of people here, so Konoha arranged a few ninjas to maintain order. Uchiha Sasuke came here to practice, so he was not out of the village's sight, and he could also avoid the observation of Sarutobi Hiruzen's telescope.
"I'm here!"
At this time, a cold voice suddenly interrupted Asuka's thoughts.
Uchiha Sasuke slowly walked to the railing. He first looked at Asuka, and then his eyes fell on the purple-haired woman next to him.
When he saw the other person's forehead protector, Sasuke's pupils shrank and he said vigilantly.
"Are you a ninja from the village?"
"Yes!"
Uzuki Yugao nodded slightly, as a greeting.
She had no intersection with Uchiha Sasuke, but she felt a little sympathetic to this guy's experience.
"."
Seeing the other party admit it generously, Sasuke's cheek twitched, then he looked up at the black-haired young man in front of him, lowered his voice and said, "Could it be that someone has discovered your identity?"
"No!"
He patted Xi Yan's shoulder and said with a smile, "This guy will also practice with you in the next period of time, but the ninjutsu you two practice are different. She insists on learning the swordsmanship with no future."
"Enough, you can become a strong man if you master every ninjutsu, don't always belittle swordsmanship!"
"Alas, swordsmanship that can't release slashes is no different from garbage.
I didn't learn it because swordsmanship couldn't release slashes."
Thinking of the swordsmanship in the Naruto world, Asuka suddenly felt a toothache.
When he learned swordsmanship for a few months, he found that it was a little different from what he imagined, so he found Hatake Kakashi's father and begged him to teach him a few tricks.
Then
Another fucking month wasted.
Then, he put his left hand on Xi Yan's shoulder and his right hand on Sasuke's head, looking at the waterfall in front of him with high spirits, "I will teach you in the next period of time."
Sasuke's eyes lit up and he asked impatiently.
"What are you learning today?"
"Today"
Flying Bird scratched his head, looked at the sun hanging in the sky, and said with a bitter face, "To be honest, I haven't thought about it yet."
"."
"."
Xi Yan and Sasuke looked at the young man with a sad face, and their mouths twitched unconsciously.
Until this moment.
She suddenly understood what she said just now.
"Why can Uchiha Madara easily sense the flaws of the Wood Release Clone?"
Because sometimes, the idiotic aura exuded by some people is indeed very obvious! !
