At eight o'clock in the evening, Shen Qi and his party returned to the small bungalow.

The basket was full when it went, and it was full when it came back—a young deer and a timber mouse.

The forest trip was really fruitful.

As soon as he entered the house, Nagato hurriedly returned to his room, ready to record today's cultivation experience.

Xiao Nan carried the young deer to the kitchen to boil water, and wanted to make a cup of ginger water for everyone to ward off the cold.

Yahiko took away everyone's changed clothes and washed them in time.

Even the little rabbit staggered to take a bath. It's a licensed rabbit now, and of course it has to be washed before it can be laid.

All of a sudden, there were only two gasps left in the living room, Shen Qi and Xiao Budian.

Shen Qi was not in a hurry to do anything, so he simply found a chair to sit on and looked down at Xiao Budian.

The little one was sullen all the way.

To be precise, its mood has not been high since Shen Qi helped it catch the forest rat.

"Could it be that dogs just like the process of catching their prey, and not like eating woodrats?" Shen Qi thought.

Xiao Budian is indeed in a bad mood.

It's not that it doesn't like to eat woodrats...... It's never eaten at all, and I don't know what it tastes like.

It's just a little bit of a pain in the face.

It once thought it could successfully capture a cunning woodmouse, but reality gave it a resounding slap in the face - it did have a woodmole, but it didn't catch it itself.

Who caught it......

Forget it, it doesn't matter.

The important thing is that the woodrat that reaches the mouth suddenly does not smell good.

But Xiao Budian said that it was not fragrant, but his body was very honest.

While it was thinking about the dog's life, its paws had already pulled the woodrat out for it.

Little:......

Since it's all pulled out, then Uncle Dog will give you some face and eat you. If there is one, there will be two, and it will definitely catch it next time!

Xiao Budian took the long-dead forest rat into his bowl and sniffed deeply.

There is still a fishy smell......

It doesn't seem to be as delicious as the little master's cooking......

It hesitated.

But the little one can swear by the nature of his Shiba Inu, this thing will definitely be edible.

As an aspiring dog, expanding the recipe is its dog's pursuit, even if this thing is really not as delicious as the little master's cooking, it must be brave to taste it.

Xiao Budian solemnly set up a flag here.

It slowly lowered its head and watched as the gray woodrat slowly enlarged and shrunk in front of its eyes......

Little:???

The timber in the mouth actually flew!

"Woo...... nose is slightly wrinkled, hair is swollen, and the voice is low.

Subconsciously, Xiao Budian made a canine-exclusive threat posture.

Who stole its food!

Before he could look up, he was slapped on the head fiercely.

"What's it called? Do you also eat raw meat? Aren't you afraid of insects? ”

When Xiao Budian heard this sound, the whole dog jumped up.

How is the big master here!

The dog, who was still majestic just now, withered instantly.

……

Early the next morning, Nagato stopped Yahiko, who was about to lift a dumbbell.

"Yahiko, will you go to the shrine later?" Nagato opened the door of the practice room and whispered.

"Huh? Why? I haven't finished ironing yet. Yahiko picked up the dumbbell in his hand.

"Have you forgotten? Big sister just told you last night. Nagato sighed.

"Big sister?" Yahiko was stunned for a moment, "Uh...... What did she say? ”

"Plank." Nagato reminded in a whisper.

"Planks? Plank...... Oh! I remember! I'll go now, and I'll definitely be back before Xiao Nan finishes breakfast! Yahiko said, and ran out of the door in a hurry.

Nagato: ......

I knew you'd forget.

Yesterday, when the three little ones gathered around the dining table to drink warm ginger water, they reported their thoughts to Mr. Shen by the way.

They felt that their control over the chakra was still too poor, and it was difficult to simply guide the chakra to the bottom of their feet, let alone climb a tree.

They want to do a special training on their feet.

So the three little ones asked Teacher Shen if there was anything they could do to practice ninjutsu on their feet.

Of course Shen Qi didn't know......

But she couldn't say she didn't know, so she came up with an idea.

"Go to the little fat man and ask for some planks! Be a modest size. Don't go out for the rest of your time, just practice at home how you can hold on to the plank with the chakra on the soles of your feet to keep it from falling off with your feet in the air. ”

"How do you keep your feet in the air?" Xiao Nan asked.

"Isn't it okay to just sit in a chair?" Shen Qi replied as a matter of course.

The three little ones suddenly brightened.

If they can catch the plank with the chakra, then they will be able to grasp the trunk with the chakra, and they will be able to grasp the slippery trunk with the chakra through the thick moss!

With a new goal, the three little ones were full of energy and had a good dream.

When I woke up, I forgot everything.

Except for Nagato......

……

Little Fat Man...... Ah no, the island soon came knocking on the door with a large and small pile of planks.

At that time, the three little ones were having lunch, and the little forest rats were also skinned and roasted in the fire.

"Looks like I'm here at the right time." As soon as Kojima entered the house, the conditioned reflex began to drool.

The barbecue last time was so fragrant!

"There's no barbecue today." Xiao Nan understood what he was talking about and explained with a smile.

"No way, I can smell the smell of roasting meat over fire!" Kojima looked incredulous, and tried to twitch his nose and sniff again, "Did you bake something?" Why does it stink a little bit? ”

"Is there one?" Xiao Nan, who had been staying in the small bungalow, couldn't quite understand the smell that Xiao Dao said, "Speaking of barbecue, we roasted a forest rat for Xiao Budian today." ”

The little little dot who squatted in front of his rice bowl wagged his tail happily.

"Woodrats?" Kojima was a little skeptical.

"yes, that's a little bit of a little bit to catch it yourself, it's amazing!" Xiao Nan boasted proudly.

The little one's tail froze.

"Here, your luncheon meat." It just so happened that Yahiko put the roasted rat meat in the small rice bowl.

The little one's tail wagged again.

"Be careful." Nagato's intimate reminder.

"Wang!" Xiao Budian replied, and lowered his head again.

It's not afraid of getting hot.

If you don't eat the stinky rabbit again, you have to cheat its meat again!

"Are you sure it's a woodrat?" Receiving an affirmative reply, Kojima's volume unconsciously became a little louder.

The three little ones looked at him in surprise.

"yes, what's the problem?" Yahiko quietly blocked in front of Xiao Nan.

"Wood rats eat poisonous grass, so you can't eat them indiscriminately!" Kojima was stared at by Yahiko, and quickly said the second half of the sentence.

Three small ones: !!

The little rabbit who is about to cheat on eating and drinking: !!

Shen Qi, who just washed up: !!

Looking back, Xiao Bu bit off most of the rat meat in one bite.

"Shut up!" Nagato hurriedly rushed up and broke its mouth, "Poisonous!" Timber rats are poisonous! Can't eat it! Little! Spit it out! ”

The little one who was caught in the mouth struggled hard.

Let go of my mouth! I can eat it! I can do it!

……

It's February.

Xiao Budian still didn't succeed in eating the woodmouse.

But the three have successfully completed the exercises of climbing trees and treading water.

It is worth mentioning that the water they stepped on was not a serious river or stream, but a big pit dug by Shen Qi.

It was Shen Qi's second outdoor class.

That day, the three little ones were practicing climbing trees, and Shen Qi took the little ones to find a place where they could tread water.

The main thing is to think about the small nose spirit, and let it find this kind of big puddle or stream more safely.

Regarding whether there is a stream in this forest, Shen Qi has always been a little unsure.

At least the three little ones never paid attention to this kind of thing, because all they received was rain and ate sea fish...... But that sea was too far from the town.

With this kind of doubt, Shen Qi and Xiao Budian set off with a clear purpose.

Wandering around, the brook was not found, but the woodrats found a nest.

Coincidentally, this nest was hidden under a boulder.

Shen Qi suddenly had a peculiar idea......

By the time the three little ones realized that something was wrong, Shen Qi had already made a giant stone bathtub out of this big stone.

The inner wall is quite sleek.

As for why it's so sleek......

Don't ask, you just can't find your way home, so you can only press the stone flat to pass the time.

The mood of the three little ones at that time was not to mention how complicated it was.

"It turns out that the big sister's loss can still be contagious?"

Since then, Xiao Budian has never followed the three little ones out to check in and tread water.

After all, as soon as it saw this giant bathtub, it would think of the nest of woodrats that were deliberately let go, as well as the black history of it getting lost with Shen Qi......

This incident made the already failed dog even worse.

……

Xiao Nan and Yahiko's birthdays are on February 20, and there is still half a month to go.

Shen Qi remembered this incident firmly, and deliberately tore off the calendar and pasted it on the head of the bed.

On this day, the three little ones got up early as usual, made breakfast, raised weights, sit-ups, push-ups, seal exercises, runs, and walked the dog......

Oh yes, the little rabbit has already quit the dog walking team and is concentrating on sleeping with Shen Qi.

As is customary, the three were supposed to finish their business at eleven o'clock, then gather in the kitchen to prepare lunch, and wait for their beloved big sister to get up on time around twelve o'clock.

"Little one, it's Xiaonan and Yahiko's birthdays soon, what gifts should I prepare for them?" At half past ten, Nagato walked his dog past the small bungalow, thinking about how to surprise his friends as he walked.

"A gift? I've already figured it out. Shen Qi's voice suddenly came from above his head.

Nagato looked up and was directly drenched in rain.

"Big ...... Big sister? Nagato looked at Shen Qi incredulously, and after making sure that she was not sleepwalking, he ran home in a panic.

Xiao Nan and Yahiko are still in the practice room.

Nagato looked at the practice room and then upstairs, hesitated for a moment, but decided to hurry upstairs to see the situation.

"Big sister!" Nagato panted and knocked on the door.

"Come in." Shen Qi's soft voice came from the room.

I'm really awake.

Nagato pushed open the door and looked at the girl who was half-lying on the bed with a rabbit in her arms, a little sluggish.

"Uh...... Big sister, we've not started making lunch today......"
