"Hmm?" Xinhu lowered his heads, but revealed an uneasy look, looking at me who was bringing the food.

I carefully placed the food in front of Shinhu and opened the food box. I looked at the lunch box curiously. This Shinhu didn't eat very well. Generally speaking, the warrior ate rice, but this one was Xiaomi. Xuezhai was determined. Although Yoshimoto ordered this, he added some pineapple from Kafei Mountain to the dishes.

"What's your name, child? Where did you come from?" Xinhu took the lunch box, but his eyes were staring at me straight.

"My name is Yasanro, and I am the son of the Kitaki family in Tokaido." I bowed in panic.

Shinto stood up and looked outside, then looked at me again, "Thank you Yasaburo, the food is very good." Shinto showed a bitter smile at the child...

It was my turn to have dinner, "Misanlang, since you are here, you have to practice with me." Xuezhai lowered his head and still ate vegetarian food. He looked up from time to time and took my expression and pulled the chopsticks a few times. "As a martial artist, learning martial arts is necessary, but it is often not enough to achieve great things and be brave." Master Xuezhai stared at me for a while, "What do you want to learn?"

"This, I want to be a big hero." This answer is like a child, just like when you grow up, scientist.

Xuezhai nodded, "I have some ambition, but my study is very boring. You are my disciple and you still have to learn Buddhism. But you are too young, so you can only meditate for an hour every day." Xuezhai ignored my surprised face and quickly put away the bowls and chopsticks and left the room. I sat upright in the middle with a surprised face, like a sculpture. "Maybe I'm on the pirate ship." I smiled bitterly and shook my head, then pulled up the door and lay down.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

Soon, someone seemed to call me, "Who called me?" I shook my sleepy eyes and murmured. Master Xuezhai looked at me and said to me, "Don't be late when the morning class starts." He agreed to leave alone. I struggled to hold myself up, chewing willow branches in my mouth, and I was much better for the brushing tools here. In the past, in the fishing village, I could only brush my teeth with salt and fingers, and quickly walked to the back of Xuezhai and followed.

Sanjian was still very surprised at my arrival. Because the backup was small, I sat at the end of the sutra hall, which was not big. According to Xuezhai's meaning, I asked Jilian to teach me the representative work of the Lotus Sutra of the Nichiren Sect. Because they were those scriptures, of course, they were extremely profound. As for the beliefs and not beliefs, I, a three-year-old child, were still very smart. As for those two and Xuezhai, they kept chanting the "Namo Lotus Sutra" (that is these 7 words, Jilian Sect believed that chanting these 7 words can lead to Buddhahood). I was puzzled for a long time.

After the morning class, everyone went to the canteen to have breakfast. The rice for the master and his apprentice was very simple. I had a small porcelain bowl next to me, and some pickled fish paste was placed in the porcelain bowl. I knew this was specially made by the master, so I kept it in my head and worked hard.

Suruga is still relatively cold in winter. I rubbed my hands and put them in my arms to restore my frozen hands. After eating breakfast, the master took me back to my room to study and was on the edge of the charcoal basin. The master taught me today's etiquette course bit by bit. The master was casual in class, but he did not ask me to listen casually. Otherwise, he would suffer.

I could just lean on the charcoal basin and listen to the speech, including some classic Chinese stories and books.

"This morning's course is here. You go and move and take you to learn martial arts in the afternoon. But I don't teach you, you must be mentally prepared." The master looked serious, but he couldn't hide the smirk like a child.

I looked up at the master with a serious look on his face, but I also refused to smile and said, "Why are you laughing so secretly? Isn't it just that I believe Grandpa Hu taught me? He just has the word "tiger" in his name, which is not true." He glanced blankly. "By the way, is the master hard to practice martial arts?" I asked a boring question.

"The child understands it very quickly." Xuezhai looked at me with a smile, "Martial practice is hard? If you don't have any hardship, how can you save your life in the future? Although Suruga is safe, there are other places. Let's take a simple example. Those who escaped to the East China Sea from Kafai Mountain are often common. Although the mountains are poor, there are also many heroes." Xuezhai looked at it, and then sighed.

I looked down at my feet. Then I silently...

"I'll ask you for the education of Lord Mu Aoshou, this child." Monk Xuezhai lowered his head with a sincere look on his face and bowed.

Xinhu quickly helped him up and said sadly, "Mr. Lu Aosu, ~ Master Xuezhai doesn't have to be so polite. This child is full of spiritual energy, and I like it tightly," Xinhu thought that his old man, who is like a rotten wood, was useless. "Your words really make me ashamed. I will take care of this child in a hurry."

"Please." After saying that, Xuezhai put down her sleeves and left the room. The only two people in the room, Xinhu and I looked at each other.

Xinhu looked at me, then stared at the monk Xuezhai who had gone away for a while, trying to say something, but his lips did not move. But then he took me to an empty place in the temple. The air beside him was also full of bitter smell of flowers.

Near the edge of the temple, there is a huge pine tree and a sapling shorter than me. Perhaps this is the power of rebirth. The branch bent by the snow, Xinhu gently broke down a branch and dusted the snow on it. Then the branches that were so cold that it was handed to my hand. I looked at the branches of the pine trees covered with snow. I smiled awkwardly. Xinhu ignored my expression and placed the branches in a position.

Although it was just a branch, it was vivid in Nobuki's hands. Perhaps this was just like the method of Kawaakashima Shingen. On the first day, I finally knew why Nobuki was so unpopular. Although he had a lot of temper in Suruga in recent years, it was a world of difference compared to Yukisai. So I knew that Nobuki was not a good father, but he was a strict good master. He sweated more often in daily life and bleed less during wartime. Perhaps this was what he asked me for.

Holding the branches tightly with both hands, and stepping on both feet. Xinhu shouted seriously, "I didn't dare to let out a sip, then Xinhu asked me to straighten my arms, and then I didn't know where to make a trick to create a small can with a rope tied and hung it on it. After a while, I felt like I was tying it.

Xinhu nodded and said to me, "It's not bad, so you have endurance. It will definitely be good in the future when you are three years old, but I won't add water to you now. Let's talk about it when you grow up."

"You still know that you can't be fat in one breath, but this thing is so tiring for my three-year-old body. I looked down at the can." I wiped my sweat and thought to myself.

Xinhu asked me to rest for half an hour and practice for half an hour. However, when Xinhu was resting, he just looked at Mount Fuji. I also stared at it in a daze, just looking at the green mountains from afar. Maybe I knew that he wanted the children far away, Nobuhito and his grandchildren...

I spent the day peacefully. At night, Master Xuezhai sat cross-legged, looked at me, and then slowly said, "What do you think of Xinhu?"

"Lord Xinhu is a good fighter and a famous martial arts master. In addition to being good at these, he also likes fishing, hunting, swimming, and has a profound military cultivation." I corrected my body and replied.

"Don't beat haha, what I want is serious." Xuezhai picked up the fan and knocked my head.

"Well, what the master is talking about is Xinhu? I'm just like that. If you ask something else, such as how Master Xinhu is treating me, then maybe I can say something." I pouted.

"Okay, tell me something else." Xuezhai angrily withdrew the fan.

"Although Lord Xinhu is very irritable, he is a strict and good master, and his teaching methods are also quite unique." I thought for a long time and thought of a word that can be answered.

Xuezhai played with the fan with both hands and turned the fan around. It was quiet all around. Even the sound of sweeping the three Jianshes in the temple was clearly heard. After a long period of silence, Xuezhai continued to say to me: "Do you hate me?"

I was slightly stunned and saw Xuezhai talking to myself: "I brought you here. You are only three years old and I will let you learn this and practice martial arts. Your childhood has passed like this, maybe it is like this."

I whispered, and said naturally, "It's a bit, I know you want me to get better, so maybe this is fate. I have a fate with that pigeon, so I got to know you, and you have a fate with me, and I have met Xinhu," I lowered my head and said slowly, saying word by word, "Is that Master Master?"

"!" Xuezhai touched the top of his head and said with a smile: "Yes. Your fate is destined by God. The boy has a lot of wisdom."

In this way, I spent more than a year peacefully in Shande Temple. Xinhu sometimes said something to me, but more often he paid attention to the weight of the canned kettle in my hand. Monk Xuezhai kept reciting his Namo. We don’t know whether he could become a Buddha.

During this period, the master left Shande Temple intermittently and went to the master of the Ministry of Education. However, during this period, I explained my questions to Jianxing. Jianxing scratched his head and said shyly to me: "Master, it seems that it is Sanhe River and the river in the west. It is probably a long time to come back. The master said that if you ask, then the daily morning class chanting will be changed to Master Xinhu's martial arts."
