I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

"What is this...?" A-Machi, who was smothered by the smell of the medicine, pinched his nose tightly and frowned because he couldn't bear the smell of the medicine.

"This is a medicine made by the little monk by accident." Zong Hai said softly, "After the ogre's blood entered the body and was infected with the 'immortal poison', take this medicine immediately. The medicinal properties of this medicine may be able to resist To survive the toxicity of the 'immortal poison', you can survive."

"'Maybe'?" Ogata keenly grasped a word in Zong Hai's words that he had to pay attention to just now, "Isn't this medicine 100% clearing the 'immortal poison' in the body? "

"Of course not." A bit of bitterness flashed across Zong Hai's face, "To be honest... I'm not sure if this medicine will have a miraculous effect on the 'immortal poison'? After all, I don't have enough people who have been poisoned by the immortal poison. Come to experiment..."

"The little monk originally made two such pills."

"One of the pills? It was given to a prisoner who was accidentally attacked by an ogre, and the ogre's blood spattered into the wound."

"If ordinary people are poisoned by the poison of immortality, they will die within about a stick of incense."

"And that prisoner survived... for nearly 2 sticks of incense."

"It's a pity that he died suddenly in the end."

"So - this medicine should still have a therapeutic effect on the 'immortal poison'? But can this thing save your life? It all depends on the destiny..."

After finishing speaking, Zong Hai recapped the jar and put it back in the cabinet.

……

……

After visiting the entire Tenmanji Temple, Zonghai led Ogata and Atachi into the guest room.

"Two benefactors, I will temporarily lend this room to you two."

"I've asked Xianhai to clean this up."

"Later Xianhai will also bring the bedding."

"The room is a bit cramped? Please don't dislike it, both of you." Zong Hai folded his hands together and bowed to Ogata and Ating.

"Nothing." Ogata returned the salute and said respectfully, "Are you willing to let us stay? We are very grateful? How can you dislike it? Besides? The room you provided is big enough, at least bigger than I used to The house in Hirose Domain is bigger."

"Hehehe." Zong Hai chuckled a few times? "As long as the two benefactors don't dislike it."

"Then—then I won't disturb the two of you from now on."

"It's getting late now, little monk and Xianhai always go to bed early? So the little monk has to prepare for bed."

"Two benefactors? Good night."

After finishing speaking, Zong Hai slowly exited the guest room temporarily lent to Ogata and Atachi, and closed the door by the way.

After Sokai left the room, Atachi let out a long breath, and then lay down on the tatami in the room in a "big font".

"That's great..." A-Ming sighed, "I don't have to spend the night in the wilderness tonight, I can spend the night comfortably in the bed... I haven't slept in a warm bed for a long time..."

As soon as A-Machi finished speaking, Ogata also let out a long sigh:

"Me too... It's been a long time since I slept on tatami or under a warm blanket."

"But although we can sleep under the covers tonight, the vigil is still indispensable."

"I know..." A-Ming, who was lying on the tatami, stretched vigorously, "A-Yi, who will watch the first half of the night tonight?"

"Let me do it." Ogata said without thinking, "It's the same as last night. I will watch the first half of the night, and you will watch the second half of the night."

"Okay~~"

"The two benefactors."

At this moment, a sea-like voice suddenly sounded outside the room.

"I brought the quilts for you two."

"Ah, thank you." Ogata hurried to the door and pulled the sliding door open.

Xian Hai, who is short in stature, is standing outside the door holding two large quilts.

Chapter 194 Surviving Researchers

"Two benefactors." Xianhai Chaoxufang and the two said softly while saluting, "Because the two benefactors' visit today was too sudden, I didn't have time to take these quilts to dry, so I invite you two Lord forgive me."

"It's okay, it's okay." A-Machi smiled and waved his hands, "We don't mind these things."

"Then—let's help the two benefactors lay the bedding, little monk."

Although Kenkai said that Ogata and Atachi didn't need the help of them, the two of them, who were sitting on the side watching Xiankai laying the quilts, came together and worked together with Kenkai to spread the two quilts side by side. .

Ogata is also very curious about Xianhai, the "former prisoner", thinking that he should also have a lot of information to dig.

So when they were laying the futon together, Kenkai who was beside Ogata spoke up:

"Xianhai, why did you convert to Tian Xiangzong and practice Buddhism with Zonghai in this Tenman Temple?"

"There's no particular reason either."

Xianhai's expression has not been much, and when answering Ogata's question, he is still expressionless.

"The monk was originally a thief. He and my younger brother made a living by stealing."

"After being caught by the government, they were directly sent to this island. The monk and his partner unfortunately became one of the second batch of prisoners to land on the island."

"We have nothing but stealing, and it's hard to survive on such a dangerous island."

"On the first day of landing on the island, not long after I met my younger brother, I encountered an ogre."

"Fortunately, I met Master Zong Hai who was going out to pick medicinal materials at that time, and with the help of Master Zong Hai, he got rid of the ogre."

"It's a pity... when my brother was attacked by an ogre, he accidentally let the blood of the ogre splash on the wound..."

"When Master Zonghai showed you around this temple just now, did he show you the medicine in his pharmacy that can work against the 'immortal poison'?"

"Ah..." Ogata let out a light "ah".

Because Ogata recalled: Zong Hai told them just now that there were originally 2 medicines that could treat the "immortal poison", and one of them was given to a prisoner who unfortunately was poisoned by the immortal poison.

"That one of the medicines was originally given to your younger brother..." Ogata said softly.

Xianhai, who had been expressionless since just now, finally had a faint smile on his face.

"Master Zong Hai did not hesitate to take out his precious medicine to save the little monk's brother..."

"Although I failed to save him in the end, I am still very grateful to Master Zong Hai."

"As long as we can remember, we brothers have never been treated so kindly..."

"The little monk is very grateful to Master Zong Hai, and at the same time, he was also moved by Master Zong Hai's kindness and generosity, so he converted to Buddhism and practiced Buddhism with Master Zong Hai here."

"Because the little monk entered Buddhism not long after he landed on the island and practiced here with Master Zonghai, so he doesn't know more about ogres and the current situation of the island than Master Zonghai does."

"You two, please rest well tonight. If you want to know more about the ogre and the current situation of the island, you can go and explore slowly tomorrow morning."

Ogata heard that Xianhai's last two words were addressed to him.

Xianhai knew that Ogata wanted to extract some new information from him, so he specially added this sentence, telling Ogata: He does not have more information than Zonghai.

Seeing that Xianhai had already said that, it was inconvenient for Ogata to continue asking.

After quickly laying out the bedding, Xianhai gave a light salute to Ogata and Atachi, and then slowly exited their room.

"what……"

A-Machi let out a long sigh, and got into the soft bedding.

"Too many things happened today..." A-Ming murmured, "Not only the body... even the mind is tired..."

"Hmm..." Ogata echoed, while raising his finger to gently rub the center of his brow.

Ogata deeply agrees with what Ah-cho said just now.

What happened today directly shattered Ogata's view of the world...

Ogata does not believe that there are monsters in this world that cannot be killed no matter how hard they try.

There must be some way to kill these ogres.

It's a pity - this method is still covered in dust, and Ogata and the others need to find it slowly...

"Take a good rest tonight..."

Ogata said softly.

"Let's talk about the rest tomorrow...Huh? A-Machi?"

It wasn't until this moment that Ogata realized that Ah-Machi had fallen asleep at some point.

Looking at A-Machi's sleeping face without any guard? Ogata smiled wryly:

"You bastard... have you been on my back for most of the day today? Why do you seem to be more tired than me..."

After expressing this feeling of helplessness, Ogata waved his hand and blew out the oil lamp on the side with the wind pressure from his palm? Then he silently watched the night for A-Ming.

……

……

When Ogata and Machi were sharing the same room and could comfortably spend the night under the covers——

"Battle baa baa baa baa..."

The sound of Mucun's teeth chattering continuously reached Gamiya's ears, which annoyed Gamiya.

"Mucun, here!" Jiangong said angrily while handing the thick layer of bark he found just now to Mucun. "Can't you find a way to cure your fear of cold?"

"How can this kind of thing be cured!!"

After snatching the bark from Jiangong, Mucun immediately put it on his body.

Thanks to this thick layer of bark, the speed of Mucun's teeth fighting has slowed down a lot.

"As expected of the wilderness..." Mucun muttered. "It's so cold at night... Mamiya, can't you really light a fire?"

"No." Mamiya said without hesitation? "Once a fire is lit, it is tantamount to exposing one's position, and it will cause a lot of trouble that could have been avoided."

"If anyone dares to come to the door, the two of us will chop them all up!" Mucun yelled violently.

"Avoid these troubles if you can. Bear with it a little."

After finishing speaking, Mamiya untied the sword from his waist, hugged it in his arms, then leaned against the tree next to him, and closed his eyes.

"Mukun, you come to watch the first half of the night, and I will watch the second half of the night."

"Okay..." After saying yes, Mucun hesitated for a while, and couldn't help asking Jiangong, "Jamiya, is there really an immortal ogre on this island? Why do we all It's been 2 days since I landed on the island, and I haven't even touched a single ogre?"

"Maybe it's because of our bad luck." Jiangong replied casually, "If we continue to go deeper into the island, we might be able to meet..."

Before Mamiya finished speaking, he suddenly opened his eyes and stood up quickly, sweeping his sharp eyes to the nearby woods.

The same expression changed, and Mucun.

Like Mamiya, Mucun turned his eyes to the dark woods next to the two of them.

"...don't be afraid." Jiangong said softly, "come out openly, we are not bloodthirsty people."

After Mamiya's voice fell, some movements slowly appeared in the woods where the two focused their eyes.

A dark figure appeared from the woods, and then slowly approached Jiangong and Mucun...

Chapter 195 Surviving Researchers

As the figure slowly approached Jiangong and Mucun, Jiangong and Mucun were gradually able to see the true face of this person.

The man was unkempt, with sunken cheeks, and an ugly complexion.

The clothes on his body were also covered with dust and dirt, and his clothes, like his body, hadn't been washed for an unknown amount of time.

After this "savage" came out of the dark woods, the first words he said to Jiangong and Mucun were:

"You... do you have anything to eat...?"

Mucun cast a questioning look at Jiangong.

Looking at Jiangong, he asked: Do you want to give him food?

As for Jiangong, he sized up this "savage" several times.

"……Give."

Then, speaking softly, he took out 2 rice balls and threw them to the "savage".

Looking at the two rice balls flying towards him in a beautiful parabola, the "savage"'s eyes lit up, and his lips trembled slightly with excitement.

Gao Gao stretched out his hands, and after catching the two rice balls thrown by Jian Gong, the "savage" immediately devoured them.
