Rope Tree turned away with reverence, and it was a big decision to take in the children in the midst of the war.

The teacher did this, and he was very worshipful. The other party is ordinary on the surface, but he has such an open mind and kind character.

Ise continued to search the ruined village, but made it all the way to the end of the street and found no sign of Nagato.

He was disappointed in his heart, and could only sigh helplessly.

During the war, many civilians will avoid concentrating in villages, which is undoubtedly a huge target for some crazy ninjas.

They are better to choose, is in the wild, in the mountains and forests. These places are safer than village clusters and don't attract the attention of ninjas.

In such a situation, if Ise wants to find Nagato, the difficulty will undoubtedly increase several times. After all, it was impossible for him to tread every mountain and river in the Land of Rain and search every inch of land.

After a while, Rope Tree walked over with a dejected look on his face and three teenagers dressed in coarse cloth clothes with holes in their bodies.

"Teacher, there are only these three who are willing to go with us!"

The Lost Way of the Rope Tree.

He tried a lot and talked a lot, but in the end he was only able to convince the three teenagers to come with him.

Others, either don't trust him, or don't want to leave the village and leave here. In the hearts of these children, it is clear that a village with humans is safer than the unpredictability of the beasts outside.

Ise stroked Rope's head and signaled that the other party didn't have to mind because of this.

The decisiveness of getting used to an environment and then changing another one is not something that everyone has. And the courage in the face of strangeness is not something that ordinary people have.

"Let's go, I and the rope tree will guarantee your food next."

He smiled and said to the three teenagers in front of him.

The three of them were all happy, and then bent down deeply: "Thank you, sir!" ”

Seeing that the other party was so polite, Ise smiled and turned to leave.

After purchasing a few more items in the ruined village, Ise decided to leave. As for coins, he could get quite a few when he picked up corpses on the battlefield.

But even if it is a small fortune, it is not of much use in this Yuyin Village, which is short of materials.

Looking at the burden behind the rope tree, Ise sighed helplessly again, their supplies at the moment were just a little brown rice and a few rags.

Along the way, the rope tree was chatting with the three teenagers with great interest.

Looking at their appearances, the three teenagers were all about twelve or thirteen years old, two boys and one girl.

All three faces were stained with mud and looked very embarrassed, but the eyes were very bright.

At first, the three teenagers still looked a little apprehensive and young, and they didn't dare to speak loudly. But there was a rope tree, and in a few moments, the four of them were chatting enthusiastically.

"My name is Rope Tree, I was saved by the teacher on the battlefield, if it wasn't for the teacher, I would have died!"

Rope tree said, and reported his information with a big grin.

"I used to be from the Iron Country, and because I was born on a snowy day, my parents named me Snow."

One of them, a slightly taller, somewhat thin teenager, said.

"My name is Haori."

The girl said softly.

"Rope tree, you can call me Yixi, listen to my parents, my ancestors are from the country of water!"

The other boy said loudly that he was very strong, but he was the youngest of the three, so he was relatively low.

Ise is in front of the curve, and he also memorizes the names of all three.

The four of them chatted happily after him, and after a while they began to look forward to the future, and of course, it was the rope tree who spoke first.

"My dream is to become a great ninja and become a Hokage!"

Rope Tree said with a laugh, but his tone was firm.

"Become a ninja, the Hokage of Konoha? Rope tree, your ideals are so ambitious. ”

Haori said in surprise.

Their insight can only come up with a bite to eat every day in the future, and a little more ambitious, that is, meat to eat every day.

As for the ninjas, the Hokage, that's too far away from them.

"Hehe, don't hide it from the three Excellencies, I'm a ninja now!"

The rope tree said proudly.

Then, he performed the three-body technique and conjured a feather weave that looked exactly the same, causing the three teenagers to exclaim.

"Rope tree."

At this moment, Ise suddenly stopped and shouted.

The rope tree hurriedly changed back to its original appearance, and was silent, and the three teenagers and girls were also frightened.

"Konoha taught you to become a ninja, did you show it off?"

Ise said lightly.

"Teacher, I was wrong!"

The rope tree bowed its head.

"Ninjas are no big deal, and the three of you have a chance, too."

Ise said to the three teenagers in front of him who were bowing their heads and bending down again, but his tone was much gentler.

"The four of you get to know each other well, and in the future, we may be together for a long time."

Hearing that the teacher was not angry, Rope Tree raised his head excitedly.

"Sensei, do you want to teach Haori to become ninjas too?"

As a young man, he didn't know what it meant to teach the power of a ninja to the wandering civilians.

"Only by becoming a ninja can you have the ability to protect yourself in this era of war."

Ise didn't answer, just said softly.

The four of them walked all the way until dusk, when they lit a bonfire in a hidden area and prepared to rest for the night.

In front of the four of them, Ise directly used the wooden escape.

"Mu Dun, the technique of the Four Pillars Family!"

In an instant, in the shocked eyes of the four people, a house made of wood appeared in front of them.

"This?!"

"It's so convenient!!"

Rope Tree exclaimed in surprise.

The three of them opened their mouths wide and looked at the luxurious house in front of them incredulously. In their eyes, the wooden house in front of them is indeed brilliant.

Then they lit a bonfire, and the four of them gathered around the flame to keep warm, and the house blocked the rain outside, making them feel much warmer and safer.

Ise went out and came back in the evening with a few rabbits.

When she saw that there was meat to eat, Haori opened her mouth wide and was speechless in surprise.

"Your dream of having meat to eat every day has now come true."

Looking at the cute expressions of the three of them, Ise joked with a smile.

The three of them were shocked, and then bowed deeply, tears glistening in their eyes. In this chaotic era of war, it was the first time they felt such warmth.

"Thank you, sir!"

Ise smiled, "Don't call me sama. ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the rope tree.

"You can call me Teacher the same as the rope tree."

The three of them were extremely surprised, raised their heads, and shouted loudly in unison: "Teacher! ”

This night, the three of them slept very soundly, the wooden house was very warm, and there was a teacher, which made them feel even more dependent.

Early the next morning, Ise woke up the four of them.

"Wash your face first, after breakfast."

"I'll teach you how to practice!"
