Sakura Village.

As the name suggests, it is covered with cherry blossom trees and is also a mountain village like a paradise, but unfortunately there is no tourism in this world, so the people here are relatively poor and have very little income.

And in such a poor village, it is inevitable to open a store that teaches musical instruments, and no one will learn, and it seems that it is about to close.

"Alas! Is my musical instrument skill going to be lost like this? Even the last cadet is gone. ”

The shopkeeper was a gray-haired old man, alone with an instrument that looked like a flute, and he was secretly sad.

This instrument is called shakuhachi, and it is a very popular musical instrument in this world, and many people play this music.

It's a pity that no one in this village learns musical instruments from him.

"Alas!"

The old man sighed deeply again, picked up the shakuhachi and played.

Not to mention.

As an old artist, his playing is still very rhythmic, and his blowing is also very good, even attracting some passers-by to stop and listen.

Some of the children looked at them with interest and seemed eager to learn.

After the old man finished playing, he looked at the children and hurriedly said.

"Xiaoshu, Nakamura, do you want to learn musical instruments with me, don't need money, and take care of your three meals a day, how about it?" The old man looked at the two little boys not far away expectantly.

The old man's family is not poor, and it can even be said that he is relatively wealthy in this village, because his son is a small businessman, which also leads to the old man's family living very well, otherwise the old man would not be able to afford to open a store.

Of course.

He is an apprentice, he must not give money to his disciples, at most three meals have been exhausted, and it is also the biggest concession he can make, otherwise his last trace of dignity will be gone.

Now after making such a promise, the old man looked at the two children expectantly, wanting to see them nodding.

"I'm sorry grandpa, I still have to work to earn money, my parents don't want me to learn musical instruments, I don't want to burden them." The little boy Nakamura said.

"Yes, I have younger siblings to take care of, and I want to earn more money to take care of them, so I'm sorry."

The other child also shook his head and refused, showing that he was very interested in the music, but unfortunately for the sake of his family, he finally refused.

"Alas!"

When the old man heard this, he sighed deeply, and completely gave up the last hope of accepting his apprentices.

"Father, go home, it's good that we can live in such a dangerous world, let's put the musical instrument away."

A slightly chubby man walked not far away, he came to the old man's side, pulled his clothes, and said persuasively.

"Hmph, it's not because of you, I haven't learned a song for ten years, otherwise I wouldn't have found other disciples, it's all your fault."

When the old man saw his son, he was angry, picked up his instrument and began to beat his son, and his son bared his teeth and grinned.

But in the end, all his skills will be buried in the loess and will never be passed on, which is the greatest sorrow of the old man.

Tata Tower!

Rhythmic footsteps sounded, and soon two figures approached from a distance.

"Excuse me, do you teach musical instruments here?"

A faint voice came, and the sound was not loud but strangely came into everyone's ears, which naturally attracted the attention of the old man.

"You want to learn a musical instrument?"

When the old man heard this question, he hurriedly walked over and looked at each other in surprise.

"Yes, but I don't want to apprentice, I just want to learn some basics, or give me some basic materials." Naruto pulled Hinata and said lightly.

"Not apprenticed?"

The old man was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then a deep disappointment appeared on his face, because he wanted to have his own disciple even more.

He refused to give up and continued: "Listen to me, only with a teacher to teach can you learn more professionally, without a teacher, you will definitely not learn well, even if you study for five or six years, there will be no improvement." ”

After the old man finished speaking, he continued to mutter, saying a lot of advantages of apprenticeship, and a lot of disadvantages of not apprenticeship.

In short, that means that if you don't learn a musical instrument, you will never be able to learn a musical instrument.

This kind of nagging made Naruto have a headache, especially the smell of garlic on the other side, which made Naruto speechless, and he took a step back and said again.

"In this way, your shop will sell it to me along with the materials inside, and you won't have to bother your old man in learning musical instruments."

"This..."

When the old man heard this, he turned on the nagging mode again, and muttered a lot of words, so that Naruto wanted to turn around and leave.

In the end, the old man saw that Naruto was determined and didn't want to apprentice, so the old man sighed and said.

"Forget it, there is nothing in this store, just a few books and a few musical instruments, you don't buy them, I will rent them to you."

"Okay."

Naruto nodded, happily gave the other party the money, and then pulled the cute little Hinata towards the musical instrument shop.

The old man still wanted to take in the apprentices, but unfortunately he shook his head in the end and followed his son home.

Inside the musical instrument shop.

Naruto closed the door and went to the counter to start flipping through the documents he had left behind.

There are a lot of materials here, although most of them are introductory materials, but there are also some more professional materials, which are more detailed.

Naruto took out the recliner from the space, hugged Hinata and began to read the materials, his spirit was strong and his memory was extraordinary, it was very easy for him to remember the materials, and don't forget that there was also a shadow clone.

Bang bang!

The white mist fills the air, and soon the shadow clone appears in the store.

"One person takes a copy and looks at it carefully." Naruto said lightly.

"Okay."

The shadow clone quickly picked up the materials to study, and one by one they were engrossed in learning the knowledge on the materials.

At the same time, Naruto ordered the Divine Servants to make various musical instruments.

There are not many musical instruments in this world, and there are only a few that are famous, such as shamisen, shakuhachi, taiko drums, thirteen-string koto, seventeen-stringed harp, satsuma pipa, and so on.

The number of these instruments is too small, Naruto plans to find more instruments to see which one is more suitable for the Divine Soul Cultivation Method, after all, it is to improve his strength, and he can't be sloppy.

And he had a feeling that when his divine soul was raised to the level of seven colors, he might get unimaginable benefits.

Although he didn't know what the benefit was yet, Naruto vaguely felt that it was definitely a benefit he had always dreamed of.

With deep anticipation, Naruto continued to sink into his studies.

This study took a long time, from the day to the next morning, and by this time Naruto and the shadow clones had already finished reading the materials in their hands.

However, it is only memorized that the information is used, and it takes a long time to practice if you want to use and master it.

"Let's enter the moon reading space, where no matter how long it has passed, the outside world is a moment, anyway, the information is memorized, and the rest is to use and practice."

Naruto muttered as he turned on the moon reading and entered the moon reading space with Hinata.

Time passed slowly, and soon another two days passed.

It only took three days to rent a musical instrument shop from Naruto.

In these three days.

The shopkeeper, that is, the old man, has been thinking about tea and food, thinking about his musical instrument skills, and wants to pass it on, but unfortunately he has never been able to do so.

He was in an irritable mood, holding a musical instrument at home and was about to play, when suddenly the sound of running came out.

Boom!

The door to the room was pushed open, and his son rushed in.

"Father, let's go, there's an accident in your shop."

"Something's wrong? What's wrong? I don't have anything in that store, what can happen as long as I don't smash the store? Wait, you won't really smash the store for me, will you? ”

The old man also stood up anxiously.

"It's not a smashing store, you can go with me to have a look, and you'll know when you go."

The old man's son didn't say much, and pulled the old man out, very fast, looking very anxious.

Such anxiety also made the old man solemn, and he didn't know what was going on, and his heart was also worried.
