Chapter 37: The Geisha
"Huh?" Sakura stood strangely and was about to ask carefully, but Shizune had already dragged Tsunade away. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
Teacher Yoyo, do you still have such a hobby? Is......
Anyway, let's go to the tavern.
"Snap" a curtain.
What's going on today? There are four female guests in a row! The tavern owner said in his heart.
"That...... Uncle, just now, Teacher Yoyo her? β
"Oh, over here, over here."
Sakura walked over quickly.
"Hey, teacher, teacher?"
"Whew~" Who is this, I finally slept for a while without any worries, and I had to wake me up.
"Huh? Sakura-chan, ah~" Holding her head with both hands, it's really damning!
"Teacher Yoyo, why did you drink like this? If you can't drink it, don't force it! β
Sakura's tone hardened, and in this way, it was clear that the second Tsunade had appeared......
Headache, too lazy to speak, counting the wine bottles, "Uncle! Uncle! Pay the bills! β
"Yes! You please, six thousand taels, thank you! β
"It's not much~" The radish that plucked for a day came out, and it seems that Tsunade's taste is not high.
Walked out of the tavern with his head covered.
"Teacher Yoyo, I'll send you back."
Hey, I have a headache like this, and I can only go home. However, I couldn't sleep tonight anyway.
"That...... Sakura-chan, do you know how to do illusions? β
"Huh? It will be a little, but there is no combat power yet. β
"There's no need, just let me fall asleep."
"Huh?" Sakura looked at me with a sneer, "Isn't it?" Teacher, how did you make yourself like this? β
Finally home.
"Sakura-chan, please, please let me fall asleep."
"In that case...... Sakura held a mudra, "Mirror Heart's Technique!" β
With a tilt of my head, I fell asleep.
"Alas! I don't know how to do such an advanced technique as Nirvana, although this technique can also make people fall asleep, but I don't know what the consequences will be...... If it had the opposite effect...... Let's slip away! β
Sakura tiptoed out of the dormitory.
The next day.
"Woo~ my head still hurts." I got up groggily, but I felt the tear stains on the pillow.
"Ah, I seem to have had a strange dream, but I forgot what the result was......"
Forget it, no matter, wash your face. Wasn't it a shame yesterday? I think Sakura sent me back.
After washing, tidy up your outfits, and go out in good spirits.
Just went downstairs and saw Iruka waiting there.
"Yo, Iruka, what's the matter?"
"Yoyo, this semester is coming to an end, and you are preparing for the graduation exam, and your class will also enter the range of exam questions, no matter what, you have to prepare a few exam questions. Also, you're going to be attending the graduation ceremony, so let me know. Here's a timeline of upcoming events. β
Yes? Yes, I've been here for almost a year now!
I'm embarrassed to smile, this semester's students, I'm afraid they don't recognize me, and I feel very abrupt to participate in the graduation ceremony.
"Well, got it, thanks!" Pick up the schedule and walk out the door.
Wow! The sun was so dazzling, and he hurriedly turned around and stood in the shadows again.
"Huh? Look at your face is not very good, what's wrong? Irukaki said.
"Ah~ nothing." It's too embarrassing to say it.
Blinked desperately, and walked out the door again.
In that case, let's go to the library first!
It took me a morning to produce five exam questions, and the questions for junior high school should be fine...... These kids have only been attending classes for a semester.
OK! Pack your materials and get ready to go to Iruka.
As soon as I walked out of the courtyard gate, I saw someone running over in a panic.
"Huh? Hinata? Long time no see! β
"Yes! Yoyo-sensei! β
Hinata is in the class, Ya and Shino have both been promoted to the middle ninja, invisibly, the difficulty of the task assigned to the eighth class has suddenly increased a lot, and it must have caused a lot of pressure on Hinata, these days, he must be practicing desperately.
"I'm sorry, Sensei, but Tsunade-sama is asking me to go, I'll talk to you another day! I haven't had time to thank you for what happened last time! "Hurriedly ran away again.
Yes? In such a hurry, let's go my own.
"Iruka, oh, exam questions."
"Huh? Brought it to me. I'm sorry, but please give it to Tsunade-sama directly, the test questions were compiled by her. β
Oh, I see, anyway, I'll take another leisurely run when I have time.
On the road.
"Ahh Whew~ Yoyo teacher! Why are you here, you can't find it everywhere! β
"Sakura-chan? What's wrong? Yesterday, thanks to you, thank you! β
"Don't talk about that! Speaking of which, though...... How did the teacher sleep? Sakura suddenly looked very weak.
"Nice, right? I don't know very well. β
"I don't know? That's good. Ah, by the way, hurry up, hurry up! β
Sakura dragged me to the Hokage's office.
"Tsunade-sama, this is an alternative exam question for this semester's nature class, please take a look."
"It's fast, put it here, below, mission!"
As soon as Tsunade said that, I noticed that there were already a lot of people in the room.
"Sakura, Ino, Hinata, Yuyo!"
"Yes!"
"The father of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, the former Daimyo of the Land of Fire, will hold a celebration of his eightieth birthday in a week, and he has proposed to the Konoha Ninja Village that he needs to send a few ninjas as guards."
"This shouldn't be an urgent task, why are you in such a hurry to get us?"
"Ha, although it doesn't seem urgent, but the previous daimyo's proposal is not an ordinary task, his request is that you must all dress up as geisha and appear in front of the show, because this is a birthday celebration, and there are no sword soldiers!"
"Yes!" "What?!"
I didn't have time to care about the three people next to me, and I was furious.
"What does he think of a ninja? How can we be made geisha? β
"What do you think a ninja is?" Tsunade looked very calm.
"Ninja? My understanding is that as a vassal and tool of the state, a person who bravely kills the enemy in wartime, defends the country and the people, accepts the worship of the state in peacetime, and at the same time has to support himself and multiply through tasks, right? β
"Who! Well, why doesn't it work? β
"Being a geisha is also one of the tasks that ninjas must accept! When I was in school, didn't I also have training in singing and dancing skills? β
The three nodded.
I'm speechless, I only have a literal impression of that kind of training.
"The reason why I want to call you in advance is because I know that you've never had a formal training session at all! So, you have to receive special training under the supervision of Sakura! β
The cultivation of female ninjas,In fact, it is completely different from male ninjas.,The first thing to master.,It's the tea ceremony.γIkebana.γFemale red and so on as an ordinary woman's skills to master.,As a ninja, the first thing to cultivate.,It's the basic medical skills.,So in general,In terms of combat effectiveness and reaction ability,It's much worse than men.γ
But let me learn these things...... Sigh!
Forget it, since it's a compulsory course for ninjas, let's make it difficult!
"Understood, Tsunade-sama, just do as you tell you."
When I came to the training ground, the three of them couldn't help but laugh when they looked at my squirming expressions.
"So, let's get started!" I put on a serious expression.
Actually, there is no problem with the essence, energy, and spirit required by my body and dance skills, all I need to practice is the movements and steps, just to choreograph a fixed program, and the cooperation with the three of them can be firmly remembered in just one day, and the next is just a matter of proficiency.
"The teacher is a natural dancer!"
In fact, Japanese dance is very restrained, and it is usually only a small part below the knee that needs to be moved, and the spirit of the dance is mainly expressed by the hands and eyes, as well as props such as folding fans, umbrellas, and handkerchiefs.
Geisha are usually quiet and indifferent when dancing, but occasionally they express plot development and psychological twists through fiery eyes and sudden bursts of movement.
The slight flexion of the fingers often represents complex meanings, so the dance must be interpreted and appreciated with the heart.
As an adult, I naturally understand these things more deeply than Sanxiao, so their admiration is not unreasonable.
"If you can, let's move on to the next one."
"Regarding the training program for geisha, the next thing is - there is, there is, the training of waka and haiku, this, I'm afraid it's too late, it takes a long time to cultivate, so Yoyo-sensei can go back and recite some famous sentences by himself!"
"Well, the third item, the musical instrument -- it seems too late."
"Oh? As for musical instruments, I've got thisβ"
Yang Yang the flute in his hand, "Flaming Piccolo!" β
Touching her lips and raising her fingers, Sakura and her sisters danced involuntarily as the melodious and light music came out.
"This is a flute that can control other people's dancing nerves!"
"Although I can't cooperate with everyone, if I take it out by chance, it can have the effect of highlighting the surprise soldier!"
"In short, that's all there is to it for the sake of the mission!"
I went to Tsunade and explained it, took the mission voucher, and set off for the capital.
"Daimyo-sama, the four of us, the ninjas of Konoha, have come to participate in the birthday celebration to be held the day after tomorrow as his bodyguards at the request of your father!"
"I see, I want to appear as a geisha performing at the ceremony, right? Well, Shinemon is over to you! Please go down and rest! β
Shinemon was the person in charge of the festival, and he took us to the geisha's training center.
"Guys, I'm really sorry, according to the arrangement, I can only let you live in such a place. Here is the timeline of the festivities, with a detailed order of appearances and a map of the associated passages. β
After Shinemon left, we began to look around the room.
"It's big, it's empty, it's perfect for practice!" Ino shouted.
"Hinata, please look at anything unusual with your eyes." Sakura, who was the only shinobi and took on the role of captain, commanded.
"Yes. Supercilious! Hinata looked around.
"Oh, over there...... Next to us, it seems to be a Kabuki training center, and there are people now, ah! Shh~"
Hey?
Hinata whispered, "They're leaning on the wall and eavesdropping on us!" β
