So Mr. Ji typed it again, and this time Naruto nodded to show that he remembered it.

"Do you know what this boxing technique is called?" Mr. Ji stroked Naruto's hair: "It's called "Fanmai Boxing"."

""Ganmaquan"?" Naruto tilted his head, expressing that he didn't understand what it meant.

"Ants are ants." Mr. Ji pointed to the hard-working ants on the soil under the tree: "This set of boxing techniques is very simple, and the focus is not heavy. Even if you know you are invincible, you must have the courage to punch. A boxing method created by a friend."

"But it's good for Naruto to train his body to increase his strength." Mr. Ji stretched out a finger: "If the little Naruto can punch a hundred...one hundred thousand punches in a year, Mr. Ji will come reward Naruto with a small gift."

Hearing that it was created by a good friend of Mr. Ji, Naruto nodded vigorously, saying that he must practice hard. Since he is a friend of Mr. Ji, he must be very good!

----------------

Mr. Ji watched Naruto punching under the tree, and his thoughts couldn't help but go back to a day many years ago.

"Do you have to go?"

In a remote tavern, Mr. Ji looked solemn, looking worriedly at the thin man sitting across from him.

"Of course I'm going." The skinny man gulped down the spirits in his glass and threw the glass heavily on the table: "The other party is a rare boxer in the world. He is willing to accept my challenge this time, so he can't miss it."

"But..."

Mr. Ji opened his mouth to say something, but was directly interrupted by the opposite man.

"Okay, I haven't fought yet. Don't look like a mourner. I don't know, but I thought you were going to ask about punches." The man waved his hand impatiently: "If you want to cry, wait until I die. .”

"Oh, that's right." The man seemed to think of something suddenly, took out a tattered boxing book in his arms for a long time, and threw out a tattered boxing book: "This is the boxing book I wrote last night. If you meet someone who is pleasing to the eye Boy, just throw it to him casually, and treat it as a good deed."

"Are you explaining the funeral?" Mr. Ji looked at the boxing score on the table dumbfounded.

"What about explaining the funeral? You are still a scholar. I don't know what to say."

The skinny man drank the last pot of wine cursingly, said something casually, and left, then got up and left, as if he was just going to buy roast chicken at the entrance of the village, rather than going to some decisive battle that attracted worldwide attention.

The process of the decisive battle is not known. People only know that after the battle, the hundred thousand mountains that have not been worn down for thousands of years were smashed into half with fists, and a row of rivers entered the top ten rivers in the world, and they were cut off for half a month.

Seeing Naruto punching hard, it seemed to overlap with the figure of a thin man.

Mr. Ji looked at Naruto with gentle eyes and muttered to himself: "How easy is it to shake a tree?"

Mr. Ji stood with his hands behind his back and looked up at the sky. He suddenly wanted to drink, and a trace of nostalgia flashed across his mouth.

"Dare to change the mountains and rivers to a new sky!"

----------------

I have been practicing in the back mountain until after five o'clock in the afternoon. If I want to go home and cook, I can go home and cook.

After dinner at about six o'clock, it's Naruto's free time to move around, whether it's shopping, playing with friends in the park, whatever Naruto likes, Mr. Ji doesn't interfere.

After eight or nine o'clock, Naruto would go home. After washing off the dust, he would sit at the table and copy books for a while.

At ten o'clock, I play a set of Wuqinxi to exercise my body, drink a cup of warm milk, sit cross-legged on the bed and meditate, and refine chakra.

In this way, Naruto's life is very fulfilling every day. Occasionally, the third-generation grandpa came to visit him, and Naruto pestered the third-generation grandpa to tell him what dishes he had learned recently.

Mr. Ji was watching silently from the side, with a smile on his mouth. He could see that this third Hokage still had great kindness towards Naruto in his heart. At least seeing that Naruto could take good care of himself, the relief and happiness in his eyes Can't fake it.In the blink of an eye, a year has passed, and today is New Year's Eve.

Different from previous years, this year's Naruto didn't have to eat instant noodles for comfort, but ate serious soba noodles.

The boiled soba noodles are first washed with cold water to remove the mucus on the surface, and then placed in a square steamer or bamboo spoon. The container for cold soba noodles is a small bamboo tray, and the sauce for soba noodles is placed in a separate container. In a small porcelain cup.

This is what Mr. Ji learned from "A Complete Collection of Practical Family Recipes". Naruto worked with him for a long time, and finally made soba noodles exactly like the picture.

As for the containers for noodles and sauce, Naruto originally planned to use the ready-made ones at home, but at the strong request of Mr. Ji, he specially went to the back mountain to cut fresh bamboo and made this small and lovely bamboo container.

According to Mr. Ji's words, since people, since they live, they need to have a sense of ritual, and even more so when they live alone. You can be casual in ordinary life, but when it comes to Chinese New Year, you can't be sloppy.

When Naruto was preparing soba noodles, Mr. Ji kept writing and drawing on the table. The paper was cheap red paper bought from a grocery store, and Naruto cut it into two big, one small, and three rectangles. The three generations of grandfathers borrowed the brushes from the rabbits that Naruto caught in the back mountain, and made them out of the rabbit fur on their bodies.

"All right!"

Mr. Ji breathed a sigh of relief, let go of the brush in his hand, and looked at the duel in front of the paper with satisfaction. After not writing for a year, his skills are still as good as ever.

Shanglian: Hehe Shun Shun Qianjiale.

The next couplet: Every year, every month, people's happiness

Horizontal batch: safe and sound all year round

Although this old man has only recovered a little bit, compared to his complete body, it can be said to be a drop in the bucket, and because he forcibly cast a spell on Nine-Tails, most of the remaining power was used up, but at least he can control the writing brush and the like Light items are gone.

Under Mr. Ji's order, Naruto took out the paste he had prepared long ago, and pasted the Spring Festival couplets on the door of his house, while reminding Mr. Ji to adjust the position.

"A little higher, a little lower, a little higher, a little higher, okay!"

Two people, one big and one small, stood at the door appreciating the couplet contentedly. Mr. Ji explained to Naruto the words and meanings on the couplet, and how to paste the blessing character at the door.

The two Anbe ninjas on the roof in the distance looked at Naruto silently. From their perspective, Naruto had been working alone for a long time, and then stood at the door in a daze.

Anbu of the cat mask has long been familiar with it: "Look, that kid is acting stupid again, what kind of moth is he playing this time."

The companion with the fox mask on the side didn't say a word, making up his mind not to answer.

However, after a year of complaining, Anbu of the cat mask has developed proficient self-talk skills, and continued to say without any embarrassment: "Do you think the symbols on the red paper at the door are pretty nice?" .”

Seeing that Naruto was in a daze and was about to go back to his room for dinner, Anbu in the cat mask couldn't help complaining: "Really, why do you think I'm so unlucky, but I got a duty on New Year's Eve, this kid has soba noodles You can eat it, but I want to drink the northwest wind here."

The companion of the fox mask has been silently planning in his heart. After the surveillance mission is over, he will ask his superiors to change his partner. The surveillance mission is boring, and he has to endure endless chatter from his teammates. It is a double torture.

The Anbu life he expected should not be like this!It's agreed to be an Anbu who can't get emotional!

In the house, Naruto was swallowing soba noodles. Mr. Ji stood aside, with his hands in his sleeves, watching Naruto eat with satisfaction, as if he had eaten too.

"Eat slowly, don't choke." Mr. Ji said with a smile: "Next year, the old man will teach Xiao Naruto how to make dumplings. The taste is absolutely delicious!"

"Dumplings? Are they the fried dumplings sold on the street?" Naruto asked as he swallowed the soba noodles in his mouth.

"Almost." Mr. Ji has also seen shops selling fried dumplings on the street, so he knows what Naruto is talking about: "It's just that our dumplings are boiled directly, without frying."

"En!" Naruto nodded, and continued to bury his head in eating noodles, as long as Mr. Ji is with him, it doesn't matter what he eats.

"Mr. Ji, look, it's snowing!" Naruto said happily, pointing out the window suddenly.

Mr. Ji looked at the snowflakes falling outside the window, and nodded happily. The auspicious snow heralds a good year, and the farmers here should have a good harvest this year.

The next day Naruto woke up early, first tidied up the inside and outside of the house, put on warm cotton clothes, then picked up the frog purse, and ran out of the house happily.

Mr. Ji said that there is no need to study and train for a few days after the Chinese New Year. Since he started cooking, Mr. Ji specifically told him to start saving some money slowly, so that he can buy what he likes when the Chinese New Year comes. .

As for why the saved money is not used for other things, such as buying pens, ink, paper and inkstones.

In Mr. Ji's view, there is no need to worry about these things. If you can't afford them, you can't afford them. It's okay to study with wooden sticks temporarily.

Isn't it just a little shabby, poor scholar, it's not something to be ashamed of.

But if someone's child can't eat something good after the Chinese New Year, it will be really miserable. It's the end of the year, and you have to reward yourself, right?

Shikamaru and Choji are wandering on the street at this time, and Choji is tirelessly persuading Shikamaru, saying that Ichiraku Ramen is discounted again, and this year's discount is bigger than last year, so don't miss it this time.

"Shikamaru, it's snowing today, it's so cold, let's eat ramen to warm up." Choji complained while eating potato chips.

Shikamaru pretended not to hear Choji's complaint, saw Naruto running from a distance, and greeted him first: "Yo! Naruto, Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year!" Naruto also stopped and congratulated with a grin.

"Happy New Year, Naruto." Seeing another person coming, Ding Ci hurriedly wanted to bring Naruto closer to his camp: "New Year's Ilaku Ramen is an event, and the large portion of seafood ramen only costs forty-five taels! Naruto People, let's go eat together!"

This nerd!

Shikamaru hastily winked at Choji, in his opinion, Naruto's usual ramen is a problem, and there is no money to spend outside to eat ramen.

"Okay!"

Unexpectedly, contrary to Shikamaru's expectations, Naruto readily agreed, held up his frog wallet and said triumphantly, "I've saved a lot of money this year!"

Hearing that Naruto agreed, Choji was immediately elated, and he couldn't help but pull Shikamaru towards Ichiraku Ramen: "Shikamaru, Naruto said to go together, two to one, you can't refuse this time."

"Oh... oh... okay." Shikamaru was taken to the entrance of Ichiraku Ramen by Choji in a daze.

"Boss, four big bowls of seafood ramen!" Ding Ci yelled to order before he sat down.

"Okay!" The boss who was making ramen turned his head and said cheerfully, "Wait a minute, I'll be here soon!"

"Four copies?" Naruto said curiously after sitting down, "Aren't there only three of us?"

"Choji will eat two servings alone." Shikamaru said weakly while sitting aside, while Choji showed a proud expression.

"By the way, Naruto, I haven't seen you come to the park to play during the day recently."

Shikamaru grabbed the potato chips from Choji's hand and handed them to Naruto. Naruto looked at Choji with a pitiful face, smiled and picked the smallest piece, and then returned the potato chips to Choji who was embarrassed .

"Some time ago, the third-generation grandfather gave me some books on ninjas, so I spent the afternoon practicing in the back mountain." Naruto put the potato chips in his mouth, chewed them twice, his eyes lit up, the crispy ,delicious.

"Ninja? Practice?" Ding Ci said with wide eyes and admiration while eating potato chips: "Naruto, have you started learning how to be a ninja? It's amazing..."

"Idiot, this is normal, okay?" Shikamaru said angrily, "Didn't your family let you start ninja practice?"

"No." Ding Ci ate potato chips indifferently: "My father said there is no need to worry, saying that it is my family's ninjutsu. As long as you eat enough, everything will be fine. You can learn the rest slowly in the future."

Shikamaru covered his face with his hands and was speechless, he almost forgot that the ninjutsu handed down by the Choji family focuses on fat.

"Big bowl of seafood ramen, four servings, please use it slowly!" While speaking, he slapped the boss with his hands and already made the steaming ramen, and sent it to the three villains.

The seafood ramen just out of the pan is still steaming. The thick soup base made from a lot of seafood, served with springy ramen noodles, and a thick layer of side dishes spread on the ramen noodles make people want to whet the appetite.

"I'm gonna start now!"

The three villains clasped their hands together and shouted, then impatiently picked up the chopsticks, first took a sip of the sweet and rich soup, and then sucked on the hot ramen.

"Suck... Suck..."

While the three of them were eating ramen with ecstasy, Naruto accidentally caught a glimpse of two children who looked not much older than Naruto were looking at the three of them eagerly in an alley not far away.

The two looked like siblings, their faces were dirty, their clothes were ragged, and it was snowing outside but they were not fully clothed. The shoes on their feet were also tattered, and the exposed half of their toes were red from the cold.

The elder sister is relatively restrained, and the younger brother has already dripped saliva on his clothes.

"Boss, who are they?" Naruto seemingly casually pointed at the siblings in the alley.

"They..." The hand-slapping boss looked at Naruto's fingers, sighed, and said, "They are orphans left over from the previous war."

After Nine-Tails invaded Konoha, the Land of Thunder's invasion of the Land of Fire turned into a local long-term war.But a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and Konoha's existing ninjas are all elites who have been tested and experienced in many battles. Therefore, the battle with the Kingdom of Thunder has become a war of attrition. The Kingdom of Thunder has come from afar. Supplies and logistics are very difficult, and in the end they had to sign a contract with Konoha, and the third Ninja World War has come to an end.

After the war, not only the big ninja villages shrank back and licked their wounds secretly, but the people at the bottom suffered the most. Once a war broke out, the enemy didn’t care whether you were innocent or harmless, as long as you were exposed or The possibility of clues, all of them are merciless, which caused many orphans to be left unattended after the war.
