"Life is an unknown journey. You may encounter unexpected opportunities at every turn. They always arrive quietly, like the brightest star in the night sky, leading the lost to unimagined glory."

Closing the page of Poisonous Chicken Soup, the young man looked out the window at the undulating mountainous plateau scene, confusion flashing across his honest face.
His life is just like what is written in the article. After accidentally picking up the message board, everything changed.
The way of heaven in the world, chakra seeds, the layout of the Six Paths Sage, enslaved thoughts, Orochimaru who was selected by Konoha, the Sage who can seal the Pure Land, Miss Moyu who follows the Sage, the perfect Sage mode, the secret method of wood and fire that can be viewed at will , and the heavy responsibility of salvation that comes with opportunity.
All these pieces of information were crammed into the mind of a sixteen-year-old boy overnight.
The young man rarely panicked. He seemed to be born with a calm temper, but he was a little at a loss.
Saving the world was too far for him, and he had no idea how to do it. Even though Konoha had helped him prepare, he still had no idea where to start.
Occasionally he couldn't help but wonder if he was born stupid.
But fortunately, there is a gentleman from Konoha who always respects his own ideas. He can always patiently reply to any confusion or questions. Even he who is not very smart can feel it through the text. The sincerity of the other party.
In the words of the other party, they are natural allies, a relationship that goes far beyond the barriers between villages.
The young man's naive and shy character couldn't bear this kind of direct talk. What made the young man even more panicked was that the other party actually came to meet him in reality.
Being in Iwagakure Village, he didn't worry much about his safety, but due to the conflicts between the villages, he still couldn't adapt to this sense of borderlessness.
What's more, on the battlefield that just ended, his father almost killed the other party.
It's embarrassing to think about meeting each other now.
In this regard, he expressed this tactfully, but the other party's answer seemed not to care.
[Tujun, the flower of destiny will always bloom at the most appropriate time. Go and complete the first seal. When you regain your consciousness, you will find that no one will pay too much attention to the storms in the past, because they are just to set off the splendor of the flower of destiny when it finally blooms! 】
Well, the sixteen-year-old boy had to admit that Mr. Orochimaru would always say something he didn't understand.
But he has one advantage, that is, he listens to advice.
Sealing chakra seeds is the prerequisite for everything, and he will not slack off.
Another day later.
In a house rented in advance somewhere in Iwagakure Village, Orochimaru, dressed as a businessman, took off his disguise and revealed his true face. He smiled and stretched out his hand, "We have been friends for a long time, Huangtu-kun!"
Yes, this person is the sixteen-year-old Yellow Earth, the son of the Third Tsuchikage Onoki.
"Uh, hello, Mr. Orochimaru."
Huangtu shook hands with Orochimaru awkwardly.
Orochimaru chuckled, "Toujun is confused, what is the purpose of my coming here this time?"
"It's a bit." Huang Tu didn't hide it.
"I will tell you this, but after Tujun completes the first seal, Tujun only needs to know my sincerity and no hostility during today's meeting."
"Then, okay..." Huang Tu didn't know what to talk about, so after a few hurried words, he chose to leave.
After almost two weeks, Loess reappeared in the courtyard where Orochimaru temporarily lived.
"Tujun, welcome!"
Orochimaru was standing under the eaves in his regular clothes, with a kind smile on his lips, like a handsome nobleman.
In the hut, the aroma of tea rose between the two of them.
Not only is Loess completely different from the last time he came here, he has also changed a lot. The most obvious thing is that the thinking temperament of a ninja has disappeared a lot.
"Mr. Orochimaru, you said last time that you would state the purpose of your visit. Can I know it now?"
"Why, Do-kun, are you still looking at me like a ninja from Iwagakure Village?"
Faced with this question, Huang Tu was a little unable to answer.
In fact, he didn't know what angle he was asking from. It seemed like he was asking out of status and habit, or he was vaguely expecting something.
Orochimaru smiled at this time and stared at the other person.
"Tujun, your heart has not yet made up its mind and your eyes are confused!"
"I......"
"Don't worry, Tujun. I used to be just like you. When I first came into contact with the message board, I even thought about self-destruction. In comparison, Tujun was much calmer."
"Will Mr. Orochimaru be at a loss as well?"
"Tujun looks up to me. I am also a human being. As a human being, I will be afraid and self-doubt. This is the purpose of my coming here."
Orochimaru poured tea for the other party unhurriedly.
"I once said that we are natural allies, but this is just my one-sided statement. I don't expect to gain the trust of the Lord immediately. After all, the past history of the ninja world has drawn a gap between us, but I I am confident that we can fill this gap, and I just hope that Tu Jun can give me a chance to get to know each other."
Loess didn't speak, then listened to Orochimaru continue:
"For a year, I will accompany Tujun on various attempts, and in the process he will continue to recognize himself and determine the way forward. I have experienced all of these, and I think they are equally important to Tujun.
Lord Tu, you can use this period of time to take a look at me, Orochimaru, as a person. After all, I am an ally who will be entrusted with my back in the future, so it’s better to get to know me deeply!
As for why I am so anxious, I think Tujun already understands the reason after reading the previous message.
We don’t know whether Wandering Immortal is real and will only stay in this world for thirty years. However, seven years have passed since my companions and I achieved some results. There is not much time left for Tujun to grow up slowly. Therefore, Please forgive me. "
After listening quietly, Huang Tu drank the cup of tea. He thought for a long time on his honest face, scratched his head and smiled, "I don't seem to have a better way. In this case, let's follow Mr. Orochimaru's advice."
Orochimaru smiled and said, "Thank you for your trust."
In the next six months, the two became both teachers and friends. While Orochimaru was cultivating himself, he was also helping Loess get started in cultivation.
During this period, Tsunade and Hatake Sakumo continued to develop ninjas under the age of thirty in the village.
Jiraiya relied on the "Aoki Technique" to sense the White Zetsu, and looked for an opportunity to take away Nagato's three little ones, and then hid, directly causing the battlefield rose. Uchiha Madara was so angry that he covered his face and sneered, and was sending out a large number of White Zetsu. The whole ninja world is looking for eyes.
And Orochimaru did indeed cooperate with Loess to verify the authenticity of the information on the message board, as he initially said.
Until they saw with their own eyes a thirty-five-year-old bandit, after knowing the truth about the world, went crazy and slaughtered, and finally cut his throat and committed suicide.
Huang Tu thought about his father and said in a dry voice: "Mr. Orochimaru, have you done similar tests before?"
Orochimaru nodded.
"Then..." Huang Tu turned around and said, "Have you ever asked the immortals if there are any other ways to deal with people over thirty years old?"
Orochimaru was startled for a moment, then shook his head, "No."
Huang Tu was surprised, "Why? Judging from the description, the immortal is obviously very capable. Didn't you think of it?"
Huangtu expressed his incomprehension. Mr. Orochimaru, who had the pearl of wisdom, was also negligent? It’s impossible that there are no elders who want to save him.
Orochimaru was slightly silent and said: "It's probably some dissatisfaction that makes us subconsciously ignore this question. Do you want to ask Tujun once?"
"I want to try it!"
"Then go ahead and leave Tujun's first question on the message board."
