"Little Chen." Jiraiya turned around and patted Senju Chen's shoulder seriously, "We have been traveling for so long and experienced such a tense diplomatic negotiation yesterday. It's time to relax. Hot springs are a holy place to cleanse the soul."
Anko put the last hawthorn into his mouth and said vaguely, "I want to take a dip too! Mushrooms are almost growing on my body these days."
Senju Chen glanced at the sign, and then at Jiraiya's impatient look.
"Okay." Senju Chen nodded, "You can go and wash up."
Yamato came forward to pay the money honestly and took four wooden tokens.
The landlady is a middle-aged lady who still has charm. She wears a wide yukata with a very low neckline. She smiled and handed over the towel, "Guests, please come in. The men's bath is on the left, and the women's bath is on the right. Do you want a back rub?"
Jiraiya came forward and raised his eyebrows. "Madam boss, are there any special services?"
The proprietress covered her mouth and smiled sweetly, then stretched out her hand and hammered Jiraiya on the chest. "Damn it, we are a regular soup restaurant. But if you pay more, I will give you the soup myself."
"Ahem!" Senju Chen coughed twice, interrupting the old pervert's conversation.
Anko rolled his eyes and went to the right with a towel.
In the men's soup, mist is lingering.
The water temperature was just right. Senju Chen took off his clothes, walked into the pool wrapped in a bath towel, and found a smooth stone in the corner to lean on. The hot water spread over his shoulders, and the pores all over his body opened instantly. It was really comfortable.
Yamato was sitting on the other side in a dignified manner, with his back straight, as if he was standing guard even when he was taking a bath in the hot spring.
As for Jiraiya, it didn't go into the water at all.
He was shirtless and sneaking close to the bamboo wall that separated the men's and women's baths. His ears were pressed tightly against the cracks in the wall, and he had an extremely wretched and focused look on his face.
"Little Chen." Jiraiya lowered his voice and waved to the back, "Listen, there is something moving next door."
Jiraiya turned his head with a serious face, "The sound of water reveals the vitality of youth and the poetry of the collision of skin and spring water! This is excellent material! I am counting on this for my new book "Icha Icha Paradise·Land of Rain Special"!"
Yamato swallowed and silently shrank into the water, trying to reduce his sense of existence.
Jiraiya began to rummage through his ninja bag.
Senju Chen opened his eyes and saw the old guy taking out a telescopic periscope, an Chakra invisibility charm, and even a listening tube with a suction cup.
"Lord Jiraiya." Senju Chen's mouth twitched, "The equipment you have is more complete than when Anbu went to the enemy country to spy on intelligence."
"Literary creation must be rigorous!" Jiraiya said without shame and posted the listening tube on the wall.
The girl's soup next door.
The water made a splashing sound. Anko soaked in the water and sighed comfortably, "The water temperature is really good."
"It's really good." Another lazy female voice sounded.
Anko was stunned for a moment, wiped some water from his face, and then realized that there were two people soaking on the other side of the pool.
One of the women has long reddish-brown hair, draped in waves on her fair back, with a tear mole in the corner of her eye, and is very charming. Sitting next to her is a short-haired girl with a bit of shyness on her face.
It is Mei Terumi and Rin Nohara.
They obviously also recognized Anko.
"Konoha's little sister has a pretty good figure." Mei Terumi chuckled, his eyes moving around Anko with a bit of ridicule.
Anko subconsciously hugged her chest and stared at her. "Are you from Land of Water?"
"We are both Tianya bathing people, why are you asking so many questions." Mei Terumi leaned back, the water rippled, "But little sister, I will teach you to be good. Men don't like those who are too fierce. They like those with contrast."
Anko frowned. "What's the contrast?"
Mei Terumi raised a smirk at the corner of his mouth, and deliberately prolonged his voice. "For example, he looks like a rough guy, and he is not good-looking. If there is something wrong with his stomach, please forgive me... This kind of tone can best control those self-righteous men."
Anko blushed when she heard this. Although she was usually very carefree, these words of tiger and wolf were still beyond her tolerance.
"What nonsense are you talking about! Female gangster!" Anko stuttered.
Rin Nohara was covering his mouth next to him, suppressing laughter until his shoulders were shaking.
Men's soup here.
Jiraiya heard this conversation clearly through the listening tube.
Two lines of nosebleeds spurted out from his nostrils instantly.
"This line... is a classic, and this voice is superb!" Jiraiya was so excited that he was trembling all over. He quickly took out his notebook and wrote it down.
Senju Chen sighed in the water. His hearing was far better than that of ordinary people, so he naturally heard Mei Terumi's voice.
"Lord Jiraiya, I would like to advise you." Senju Chen said slowly, "Those people next door are not very good-tempered. If you go any further, you will be responsible for the consequences."
"If you die under peonies, you can be a ghost!" Jiraiya couldn't listen to it at all.
He put away the listening tube, Chakra was adsorbed on the soles of his feet, and his whole body climbed up the bamboo wall like Gecko.
A little bit, a little bit.
He was about to poke his head out.
Over at the female soup, Mei Terumi was keenly aware of the fluctuations of Chakra on the wall. Her eyes turned cold, but a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"Water Release·Water Dragon Bullet!"
Without Hand Seals, the hot spring water in the pool instantly condensed into a roaring water dragon, rising directly into the sky and hitting the top of the bamboo wall.
At the same time, Anko also reacted and threw Kunai with a few poisonous snakes in his backhand.
"Multiple Hidden Shadow Snake Hands!"
"Ah--!"
A shrill scream pierced the night sky.
Jiraiya had just half-expanded his head when he was hit by a water dragon from the front, and then several snakes bit him on the nose. He lost his balance and fell upside down from the wall.
"Plop!"
A heavy object hit the man's soup hard, and water splashed three meters high.
Yamato turned around silently, pretending to study the texture of the stones under the pool, and said to himself: I don't know him, I don't know him.
Senju Chen picked up a dry towel nearby and threw it on the water.
"I told you earlier." Senju Chen said in a calm tone, "If you don't listen to the young man's words, you will die in front of me."
Wow.
Jiraiya emerged from the water.
His current appearance is terrible. His left eye was hit by Water Dragon Bullet and swollen like a purple-skinned walnut. There are two stubborn Aodas hanging on his nose, and there is a big bulge on his forehead.
"Girls these days... are really ruthless." Jiraiya pulled the snake off his nose and gasped in pain.
Senju Chen picked up the wooden tray next to it, with a pot of warm sake and two wine glasses on it.
He poured two glasses of wine and pushed one over.
"Drink something to calm down."
Jiraiya sat down in the water with panda eyes, took the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
The farce ended and the atmosphere gradually became quiet. The steam from the hot spring lingered between the two of them, cutting off the hustle and bustle outside.
