I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

The "last time" that Zong Hai referred to was the time when he saved Xian Hai's younger brother.

He Shi and He Zhi, the apprentices of the mysterious pair of masters and apprentices, He Zhi gave Zong Hai only 2 pills that can suppress the poison of immortality.

One of them had been used to save Xian Hai's younger brother before.

And the pill in the small jar that was emitting a strong medicinal smell on his hand was the last pill that could suppress the immortal poison.

"Female benefactor, open the mouth of benefactor Ogata."

While talking, Zong Hai poured out the pills in the jar in his hand.

After stuffing the pill into Ogata's bloody mouth, Zonghai pressed Ogata's mouth and forced Ogata to swallow the pill.

Although Ogata is half unconscious now, but fortunately after Zonghai stuffed the pill into his mouth, he still swallowed the pill as if he had an instinctive reaction.

Seeing that Ogata swallowed the pill smoothly, Zong Hai's originally tense face finally relaxed a little but not too much.

"The benefactor Ogata was injured last night, and the immortal poison didn't kick in until this morning." Zong Hai said softly, "It took so long for it to show up, which means that the immortal poison that entered the benefactor's body must not be too much."

"But whether you can survive it depends on the good fortune of Ogata's benefactor."

Ogata felt his mind was in chaos now.

He only remembered that after seeing Ah Ding and Makimura back, his body began to get more and more tired.

I was so tired that I couldn't even stand still.

After feeling his stomach churning and spitting out a mouthful of blood, he felt his eyes go dark, and all senses of his body seemed to become dull at this moment.

I can't open my eyes, and I can't hear clearly.

He could only hear Ah Ding and Zong Hai calling him.

But I couldn't hear what they were shouting.

He could only vaguely hear them calling his name.

Then, I felt that my mouth was forcibly opened, and then someone stuffed a round, small thing into my mouth.

Although he didn't know what it was, Ogata swallowed it subconsciously.

After swallowing this thing, Xu Bian completely lost consciousness, could no longer hear or feel anything

After an unknown amount of time, a voice suddenly sounded from Ogata's mind.

And this sudden sound woke Ogata slightly awake.

After these two voices fell, Ogata's mind returned to calm and no other voices rose.

And Ogata, who was startled by the sudden sound and regained a little consciousness, fell into a coma again as the sound fell.

It was like light slowly appearing in the darkness.

First a little bit of light appeared, and then this little bit of light expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye. The recovery of consciousness resembled this process very much.

First, some voices were gradually heard.

Then gradually began to perceive his limbs and five bodies.

Finally, the eyelids regained the strength to lift up.

Slowly raising his eyelids, the first thing that caught Ogata's eyes was the unfamiliar wooden ceiling and the face of A-Machi that occupied a large part of his field of vision.

A-machi has always been by Ogata's side.

The first time he noticed that Ogata was about to wake up, he immediately moved over and waited for Ogata to wake up.

After seeing Ogata opened his eyes, the color of joy immediately climbed onto the entire face of Ah-Machi.

"Zonghai! Zonghai!" Ah Ding turned and left, shouting Zonghai's name.

After A-Machi left, Ogata struggled to sit up.

Although it is obvious that his body is very weak now, Ogata still has the strength to sit up.

After sitting up, Xu Fang immediately began to turn his eyes and observe his surroundings.

A simple, small room with a thin blanket on the body and the body. The only window in the room is the sea.

Based on these sights observed with the naked eye, Ogata immediately deduced that he should be in a certain room of the warship of the shogunate army they had snatched.

While observing the environment he was in, memories before coma kept popping up in Ogata's mind like bubbles.

At this moment, the door that was closed just now was pushed open again.

A-Machi is back.

Left alone.

When I came back, I brought a large group of people with me.

Sokai, Mamiya, Makimura, and Konnosuke rushed into the room where Ogata was resting after A-machi.

Before everyone gathered around Ogata, Konnosuke took the lead and said anxiously to Ogata:

"Master Ogata! How do you feel?"

"How?" Ogata spread his hands and five fingers, "I don't have any other feelings except feeling tired."

"Ogata benefactor." After seeing Ogata wake up, Zong Hai did not show obvious joy like others, but said in a deep voice, "Please let me see the wound on your neck."

After all, without waiting for Ogata's response, he stretched out his hand to untie the white cloth that wrapped Ogata's neck layer by layer.

When Zonghai untied the white cloth around Ogata's neck, Atachi explained to Ogata what happened to him.

Knowing that he was actually poisoned by the immortality poison, and that Zong Hai fed the medicine that could suppress the immortality poison, despite his weak body, Ogata's eyes widened in one breath.

"Then how long have I been in a coma?"

"Not long." Jiangong continued, "I only slept for about 3 hours, and it's just after noon."

"Did I only sleep for such a short time? Why do I always feel as if I have been asleep for several days?"

Ogata looked down at his palm.

"After three hours, I still haven't vomited blood and died Zong Hai. Does this mean that the medicine has worked and the immortal poison in my body has been cleared?"

"I don't know." Zong Hai said in a deep voice, "We have to look at the wound first."

As soon as Zong Hai finished speaking, he untied all the white cloth wrapped around Xufang's neck, exposing the wound on Xufang's neck.

After seeing the wound on Ogata's neck, everyone present except Ogata felt their hearts sink.

Only because the flesh around the wound on Ogata's neck was still dark purple.

Ogata, who couldn't see the state of his wound, couldn't help feeling nervous when he saw the expressions of A-Machi and Sokai changed, and couldn't help asking:

"What's the matter? Why do you all look so heavy?"

"Ogata benefactor." Zong Hai said softly to Ogata after being silent for a while, "There is good news and bad news about your body, which one do you want to hear first?"

"Then the good news first."

"The good news is that it is probably because the amount of immortality poison entering your body is small, and it should be because of your better physical fitness, so the medicine that can suppress the immortality poison has taken effect. The immortality poison in your body Being suppressed, there should be no more danger of life in a short time."

"What's the bad news?"

"The bad news is that the immortality poison in your body is only suppressed, and has not been completely removed."

Zong Hai raised his finger and pointed to the deep purple flesh on Xufang's neck.

"Your flesh here is still dark purple, which means that there should be immortality poison in your body, but it is suppressed and won't let you die immediately."

After Zong Hai's words fell, Mucun happened to bring a bronze mirror from nowhere, and showed it to Ogata.

Although the reflection effect of the bronze mirror was not good, and the reflected face was blurry, Ogata could still see the deep purple flesh around the wound on his neck through the bronze mirror.

Although the area of ​​this piece of dark purple flesh is not considered large, it is not considered small either.

Seeing the deep purple flesh on his neck, Ogata looked startled, but he quickly adjusted the expression and expression on his face.

"So" Ogata Chao Zonghai asked back, "You mean that I still have the poison of immortality in my body, but it's just suppressed, so I didn't die immediately. Is that what you mean?"

"That's right." Zong Hai nodded.

"Then" Ogata hesitated, "Will the remaining immortal poison in my body recur?"

Zong Hai was silent.

There was no immediate answer to Ogata's question.

After being silent for an unknown amount of time, Zong Hai said softly:

"The poison of immortality in your body may explode again, or it may be suppressed until you die."

"How could that be?" Ating, who was ecstatic because of Ogata's awakening, turned pale again after hearing Zonghai's words.

As for Mamiya, Mucun, and Konnosuke, the expressions on their faces became heavy after hearing Zong Hai's words.

As for Ogata, he turned his attention to the bronze mirror in Mucun's hand again, and looked at himself in the mirror.

His face is also not very good-looking now.

ticking time bomb

Looking at the deep purple flesh reflected in the mirror, Ogata couldn't help thinking to himself.

A ticking time bomb that doesn't know when it will explode

According to Zong Hai's statement just now, the immortal poison remaining in his body is a time bomb that will explode at an unknown time.

Maybe tomorrow, the immortal poison in his body will explode again, causing him to vomit blood and die.

It is also possible that the immortal poison in his body never broke out again, and he spent the rest of his life safely

At this moment, Ogata's pupils shrank slightly.

Because he suddenly remembered that when he passed out, he vaguely heard a strange system sound that he had never heard before in his mind.

It seems to be talking about absorbing "immortality" and finally there is a successful absorption part of "immortality".

With a puzzled mind, Ogata pulled out his personal system interface.

After checking his personal system interface, Ogata's eyes widened in shock.

His strength, agility, and reflexes each increased by 1 point, becoming 11 points, 10 points, and 9 points.

And his stamina increased by 2 points to 11 points.

Vitality increased the most, from 19 points to 23 points, an increase of 4 points.

what happened?

Just when Ogata was stunned by the sudden increase in his personal attributes, when he was unconscious, the system audio that sounded in his mind seemed to have a life of its own, and it automatically emerged in Ogata's mind.

absorb "undead"

And successfully absorbed part of the "undead"

Ogata repeated in his heart the two words spoken by the system voice that sounded in his mind when he was unconscious.

"not dead"

Ogata couldn't help but raised his hand and touched the purple flesh on his neck.

It turns out that what is buried in my body at this time is not a time bomb but a double-edged sword?

Although this "immortal poison" will erupt again and take my life at some point, its existence can bring a considerable boost to my physical functions

Thinking of this, Ogata couldn't help complaining in his heart:

Is it a big profit or a big loss?

If I keep this "immortal poison" in my body, will my bodily functions continue to increase?

The room where everyone was in was in an atmosphere of silence for a while.

No one said anything, no, it should be said that no one knows what to say now

Different people have different expressions on their faces at this time.

Zong Hai, Konnosuke and the others showed regret.

Mamiya, Mucun and the others looked a little heavy.

As for A-Ming, her face was pale and bloodless, as if she had heard some terrible news.

On the contrary, Ogata, the central figure in the incident of "being poisoned by immortality", is the most calm.
