Naruto: Uchiha is not Raikage!

Chapter 82: Insincere Hinata Xia
In the end, Mei Terumi decided to go to Ye Cang first.

She could see the anger towards Qingsi in Ye Cang's eyes, and she thought that he would not give up directly like Kumogakure.

…………

Night falls.

There was the light of a bonfire outside the rocks near the downstream bank, and the flames burned in the wood, making crackling sounds from time to time.

The dew remaining during the day is very little by night, so some damp wood can still be used. Qingsi can ignite it with a single fire escape.

Qingsi and his group and Hinata Xia and the other two gathered here.

The dim light of the flames reflected on everyone's face, and Qingsi sprinkled seasoning on a grilled fish.

All training grounds last for five days, and you have to find your own food during this period.

Qingsi had the foresight to prepare some seasonings and handed them to Yuhi Kurenai.

Xihihong's eyes lit up, and she immediately took it, blew on it, and took a bite.

“It’s hot, but delicious.”

Xihihong was panting and said it was delicious.

She likes eating fish very much.

The Death Forest can be said to be a primeval forest, and the ecology inside is very primitive.

The fish in the river are 100% wild, and the meat tastes much more tender than those farmed outside.

Xihihong wondered if it was because these fish also had some tiny amounts of chakra in their bodies, and in order to adapt to life in the primeval forest, they had tempered their meat to be very tender.

"Kiyoshi, I don't have any?"

While Kurenai Yuhi was tasting the grilled fish, Asuma Sarutobi looked at Seiji.

Kiyoshi threw the seasoning bottle to Asuma Sarutobi and told him to do it himself.

There were still quite a few fish in the simple basket woven with wooden strips.

With Qingsi's insight, he always catches fish accurately and rarely misses.

As for Hinata Tetsu and Hinata Kagami, they ate the fish they caught themselves.

But the fish is not only small, but also tastes white.

Hinata Natsu was still grilling fish, his white eyes staring at the crackling campfire, wondering what he was thinking.

"Hinata Xia, let's talk."

Seeing that the time was almost right, Qingsi stood up.

Eat and drink enough, get down to business.

"it is good."

Hinata Xia put down the grilled fish and followed Qingsi into the cave.

"Asha!"

At this time, Hinata Tetsu put down the half-cooked grilled fish in his hand.

Hinata Xia's affairs always inexplicably lingered in his mind, making him uneasy.

Seeing that Hinata Xia was going to talk to Qingsi, Hinata Tetsu couldn't bear it anymore.

"what happened?"

Hinata Xia turned around.

"No...nothing, it's just that I will always stand by you."

No matter what happens.

Hinata Tetsu added this in his mind.

Hinata Xia smiled softly, said ok to Hinata Tetsu, and followed Qingsi into the cave.

There are many large creatures in the Death Forest, and there are quite a few places like caves, and most of them are larger than humans.

"How do you want to make amends for this?"

After entering the cave, Qingsi said lightly.

Hinata Xia stood there, biting her lip, her fingertips unconsciously twisting her sleeves.

"I... can give you money."

She spoke carefully, her voice a little dry.

After much thought, Hinata Xia realized that the only valuable thing about him was "money".

The soft fist method is a secret of the main family and it is impossible to teach it to Qingsi. Qingsi cannot learn it even if he doesn't roll his eyes.

As for other ninja tools, Hinata Xia also has very common standard equipment.

She didn't think these could impress Qingsi.

Qing Si glanced at her with a half-smile and said slowly:
"Okay, I'll give you one million taels." "One... one million?"

Hinata Xia suddenly looked up, her eyes wide in shock.

Qingsi is really rude.

Even if she sold all her belongings, she wouldn't be able to fetch one million taels.

"Can't you give it? Or do you think the reputation of my Uchiha clan is not worth a mere one million ryo?"

Qingsi's tone turned cold.

In the dark cave, only the faint light from the distant campfire came in.

Qingsi's face was hidden in the shadows.

Hinata Xia was a little anxious, she said quickly:
"Of course the Uchiha clan's reputation is worth more than this amount, but... this is too much. I need to inform Madam Ginka."

Hinata Xia spoke.

Her position was already humble enough, even with a hint of cautious pleading, just asking Qingsi to be flexible.

She was assigned to serve Hinata Ginka, and Hinata Ginka usually made the decisions on everything.

What's more, this matter was caused by Hinata Ginka.

She was just Yinhua's servant, how could she bear such a huge amount of "compensation" alone?
"Don't you have any sincerity at all?"

There was a deep sense of disappointment in Qingsi's words.

Hinata Xia's heart trembled, and she shook her head subconsciously:

"No, no! But I really can't take out this money..."

Hinata Xia spoke frankly and just hoped that Qingsi could make some reasonable requests.

"I promised to make amends, but in the end, I couldn't produce anything."

Qingsi shook his head.

Hinata Xia's hands unconsciously clenched her sleeves, her teeth gently bit her lower lip, and tears flickered in the corners of her eyes.

She received the simple and strict education of the Hyuga clan from childhood to adulthood.

The most important thing is to be humble and orderly, and not to lose the etiquette of Hyuga and tarnish the reputation of Hyuga.

"Qingji..."

She finally spoke, her voice trembling slightly and her eyelashes drooping.

"Then...then how do you want me to make amends?"

Qingsi looked at her reaction, and the corners of his lips raised slightly, barely perceptible.

This is the attitude he wants.

The one million taels that Qingsi mentioned was just a casual remark.

It’s to pave the way for the next thing.

Humans are creatures that love compromise.

As long as a very excessive request is made in advance, and then another one is made that is excessive but not as excessive as the first one, then the second one will often be accepted.

"Since you can't come up with the money, then express your apology in other ways."

Qingsi slowly walked in front of her, looked down at her, and suddenly asked in a light tone:
"Hinata Xia, do you know who you are?"

Hinata Xia looked up suddenly, a hint of uneasiness flashing in her eyes.

She stammered:

"I am... a branch of the Hyuga clan."

"wrong."

Qing Si shook his head, a smile on his face.
"You didn't say it completely. It should be 'a servant of the Hyuga clan.'"

Hinata Xia's face suddenly turned pale, as if she had been slapped hard, and a feeling of shame instantly surged in her heart.

Her fingers clenched her sleeves, but she was unwilling to speak.

Qingsi was not annoyed. Instead, he looked at her with interest, as if admiring her fragile persistence.

"Why? You don't dare to say it?"

He deliberately approached her slowly, lowered his head slightly, and put his voice close to her ear, his voice low and bewitching:
"Do you think you're not, or do you just not want to admit it?"

But she still clenched her teeth tightly, stubbornly refusing to speak.

Looking at her like this, Qingsi suddenly chuckled, his eyes revealing a kind of playful pity.

The "Caged Bird Seal" is considered to be one of the more powerful seals in Naruto.

It is unknown how many years Hizashi Hinata was buried after his death. He was resurrected by the Impure World Reincarnation and changed his body. The curse mark on his forehead is still there!
In other words, those who split up the family are servants of the main family when they are alive, and they are still servants of the split family after they die, and they will never be able to be reborn.
