In short, three days passed in the blink of an eye.
October 24th, Friday.
After the outdoor training in the afternoon, Cold Wind brought his little brother home first. Red Bean and the others went to buy food. As for Erpang, he went home to get sushi. They agreed to meet at the river two miles east of the village in an hour.
On the way home, Cold Wind, Gale, who was following behind him, kept a straight face and did not say a word.
Cold Wind felt a little strange. His little brother used to be very active at this time, chattering and jumping all the way. Why was he so quiet today?
So Cold Wind asked, "Gale, were you scolded by the teacher today?"
"No way!"
Gale snorted, then stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Cold Wind seriously. "Brother, the teacher gave us homework after school today."
Cold Wind's heart skipped a beat, but he remained calm on the surface. He smiled and asked, "So you're not happy?"
Gale nodded, then shook his head and said, "Brother, today the teacher talked about the knowledge of Kunai Throwing. The homework given by the teacher is to write a 300-word essay."
Cold Wind chuckled and continued to walk home. "Let's go home first. I'm going to celebrate my classmate's birthday later."
These are all your homework, aren't they, Brother? Brother, brother, say something. "
Cold Wind walked forward with his head lowered. Gale chased after Cold Wind and asked, jumping up and down, angry and anxious.
Although Cold Wind had thought that such a day would come, he did not expect it to come so soon.
"My stupid brother!"
Cold Wind knew that he could not avoid it, so he stopped and looked up at the sky at a forty-five degree angle. He sighed. "You finally found out!"
"Brother, you admitted it. That's too much!"
The little brother looked at him with righteous indignation. "You actually gave me your homework. How cunning!"
"No, that's not what I'm referring to."
Cold Wind let out another long sigh, his eyes were gloomy as he looked at Gale, "Gale, the knowledge you have learned in school now, compared with the Triple Body Technique, Ninja Throwing, and Grand Fireball I taught you, who taught you more useful?"
Gale blinked and thought about it carefully. Although he was a little unwilling, he had to admit …
"Onii-san's teaching is useful. Sensei only teaches theoretical knowledge. He doesn't even let us touch ninja tools."
"Do you know why? Let me tell you, because what I'm teaching you now is all second-year knowledge! "
Cold Wind said earnestly, "So, I'm also strict with you according to the second grade homework standards. Do you understand?"
"…"
Gale's face was full of black question marks. Why did he understand these words, but he couldn't understand them when they were connected?
"Gale, don't you want to become a ninja as soon as possible and inherit the Wood Leaf -Ryu Swordsmanship as soon as possible?"
Cold Wind didn't give him time to think and quickly said, "If you want to do this, you have to learn advanced knowledge in advance and complete advanced homework. I don't want to do this, but if I don't do this, I won't be able to help you lay a good foundation. Do you understand?"
"Uh, oh, that, I understand."
Gale blinked twice, but he still had a confused expression on his face.
"No, you don't understand!"
Cold Wind shook his head and then strode forward, "Forget it, I won't teach you anymore in the future. You just obediently follow the school's tutorial and walk slowly step by step. Maybe when you're 50 years old, you can inherit the Wood Leaf -Ryu Swordsmanship."
Cold Wind used his trump card. Sure enough, the little brother was anxious as soon as he heard it.
"Onii-san, I was wrong. Don't not teach me."
Gale quickly caught up with him, "Onii-san, Onii-san …"
Along the way, Gale apologized and begged. When they reached home, Gale finally 'convinced' Cold Wind to change his mind.
Looking at the joy on Gale's face, Cold Wind sighed silently. Kids these days are getting harder and harder to fool.
Then, Cold Wind washed his face at home and then rushed out to the east side of the village.
…
Around four o 'clock in the afternoon, Red Bean, Inuzuka, Iruka, Steel And Iron, and Kamizuki Izumo had already rushed to the side of the river with big and small bags.
The river was about ten meters wide. Knee-high weeds grew wildly on both sides of the river. Occasionally, a few wild flowers would be faintly discernible in the grass, but there was no fragrance of flowers or butterflies …
Not even the sound of birds.
Red Bean and Inuzuka looked around with sullen faces. There was no green mountain nearby.
And vaguely, there seemed to be a strange smell coming from the river.
"What … is this?"
Red Bean walked to the bank and lowered her head to look at the slightly muddy river. Her eyes gradually became unfriendly.
Iruka walked over with an awkward expression, "Actually, this river is the sewage of the village."
"What?!" Inuzuka's face turned pale.
"Woof woof!" She accidentally plucked a few more strands of the puppy's fur.
Red Bean was furious. Although the purpose of this birthday picnic was to improve the friendship between Xiao Sha and Waterstop, it was her birthday after all!
"Damn it, Cold Wind, that bastard, dared to lie to me!"
He said that the scenery was picturesque, the environment was fresh and natural, the mountains and rivers were clear, the grass was green, the birds were singing, the flowers were fragrant, and the butterflies were dancing … All of it was a lie!
Then she glared at Iruka, "Iruka, since you knew, why didn't you tell me?"
Iruka took two steps back and said, "Well, Cold Wind didn't admit it. Also, if we go upstream, there won't be any strange smell. "
Steel And Iron and Kamizuki Izumo didn't care. They carried their big and small bags and walked upstream, "Everyone, don't fall behind!"
"When Cold Wind comes, I won't let him go!!"
Red Bean was furious.
There was no other way. If they went to Thousand Hands Park, it would be dark already.
"Red Bean, will Waterstop be unhappy when he comes?"
Inuzuka Sha asked Red Bean pitifully.
"If Waterstop is unhappy, send White Ball to bite Cold Wind. Bite him to death!" Red Bean gritted her teeth and kicked the obstructing weeds to the side.
"Woof woof woof!" White Ball immediately showed his loyalty.
Ten minutes later.
"Hurry up, I found a good place."
Steel And Iron found a relatively open space by the river upstream. As long as they cleaned up the excess weeds nearby, it was very suitable for a picnic.
Red Bean immediately ran over. First, she looked at the clear water by the river, then took two deep breaths. After confirming that there was no strange smell, she was relieved. Then, she looked around and found that the terrain here was much higher than downstream. Sitting here and looking downstream, there was indeed some scenery. Moreover, the terrain here was open, and there was wind blowing from other places, making people feel comfortable.
"Red Bean, this place is not bad, right?" Steel And Iron asked with a smile.
"It's barely okay."
Red Bean said stubbornly.
"Then it's here."
Steel And Iron put down the big and small bags and immediately began to clean up the weeds nearby with Iruka and Kamizuki Izumo. Then, they spread the cloth on the ground and took out the food.
Not long after, Erpang, who brought a few boxes of sushi from home, and Waterstop, who brought birthday gifts, arrived one after another.
Now, only Cold Wind hadn't arrived yet.
