"But in the end, I became an executioner participating in human experiments..."

"I don't have the face to see him again..."

"I plan to spend the rest of my life in this Canto village..."

Speaking of this, Xuanzhi's face once again showed the color of nostalgia.

"At the beginning, after successfully escaping, I thought about suicide countless times."

"As soon as I closed my eyes, the faces of those transfigured people in the laboratory and the faces of the islanders on Butterfly Island kept flashing in my mind, and I was almost driven crazy."

"Actually, several times, I almost committed suicide."

"My last suicide was to jump off a snow cliff."

"But maybe it was really good luck. Not only did I not die when I jumped off the snow cliff, but a villager in Kanto Village who was out hunting found me who fell off the snow cliff and brought me back village."

"Kantuo Village has always been a village without doctors. If people in their village are sick, they have to go far to get a doctor."

"After I was rescued and returned to Kanto Village, I gradually became a village doctor in Kanto Village through various chances and coincidences."

"During the time I lived in Kanto Village, it was I... who used my medical skills to save lives after a long absence."

"I am also very fortunate to be respected and loved by the villagers because of my medical skills. Even if I know that I am a person with a brain problem, they are willing to love me and protect me."

"Before I knew it, I was gradually able to fall asleep at night, and I would no longer be disturbed by nightmares..."

"...I just now deeply realized how high your status is in this village." After hearing Xuan Zhi's screams just now, the villagers surrounded him and A Ding in three circles and outside three circles The scene of getting up left a deep impression on Ogata, "Mr. Lin was driven out of the village by the villagers before, and it was to protect you, right?"

"Well, yes. Before, the villagers drove Mr. Lin out of the village, in order to stabilize my mood as soon as possible, and to prevent Mr. Lin from inadvertently irritating me again."

After finishing speaking, Xuanzhi let out a long breath.

"All in all—I can be regarded as being saved by this village. I have made up my mind to spend the rest of my life here."

"Just let me never see my junior brother and master again..."

"Is there anything else you want to ask?"

"..." Ogata stood up silently, "Thank you for your answers. I am finally closer to the truth now."

"What are you going to do next?" Xuan Zhi asked, "Are you going to Mount Koya?"

"Besides going to Koyasan, I don't have any other clues." Ogata said in a half-joking tone, "From Ezodi to Kansai...it's another long journey..."

"...Then, as a farewell gift. I will give you these two medicines. I don't need these two medicines anymore."

Xuanzhi reached into his bosom, and took out 2 small red pills from his bosom.

"What's this?" Ogata asked.

These two small pills exude a mint-like aroma, if not for the weird red color, otherwise they really look like the mints from the previous life.

"This is a poison developed by my master by accident." Xuanzhi said indifferently, "It is one of my master's unique medicines. It was originally used as rat poison to kill rats, but unexpectedly it became a drug because of its toxicity. It’s so strong that even people can be easily poisoned to death.”

"As long as you take this medicine, you will die soon. Because the toxicity is too strong, the process is quite painful."

"The master once planned to improve this poison with me, and change this poison into a rat poison that is really suitable for human use, so I remember the prescription of this deadly poison."

"When I was doing experiments with my master on Butterfly Island, I secretly refined 2 of them without telling the master."

"...Is the purpose of refining these two poisons to facilitate suicide?" Ogata asked softly.

"Well, that's right... After I landed on Butterfly Island, when I escaped for the second time, I planned to take this medicine if I was caught again."

"But in the end my second escape was successful, so the two poisons have been kept to this day."

"I don't need these 2 poisons anymore. So these 2 poisons will be given to you."

"This medicine won't dissolve when thrown into water, and it must be eaten raw to be effective."

"Once something unexpected happens, you can use these two poisons to give yourself a good time."

"Although I don't want to say too many spoilers to you, I still want to remind you."

Xuanzhi's tone gradually became serious.

"If you keep chasing 'immortal' like this, one day you will face the group of people who study 'immortal'."

"That group of people is definitely not a rabble."

"Being able to have contact with the monks in Mount Koya, and at the same time abducting so many people to serve as experimental subjects for research, the influence of this study of 'immortality' will definitely not be too small."

"The enemy you will face next may be a colossus far beyond your imagination."

"Facing against such a powerful enemy, it is not surprising to encounter any accidents."

"So it is very important to keep these two pills that can give yourself a relief when necessary."

Ogata listened carefully to Xuanzhi's sincere suggestion.

And then with a smile—

"thank you for your kindness."

"As early as when I don't know, I have been fighting against all kinds of behemoths."

"Also walked on the brink of death several times."

"I'm used to fighting big guys."

"Die by taking poison by mouth, or face a powerful enemy, and die with the last drop of blood on your body. I prefer the latter."

"...As expected of a hero who chased all the way to a bitter cold place like Ezo in order to find me and master." Xuanzhi showed a smile that he hadn't shown since the conversation with Ogata, "This kind of demeanor has to be admired."

Xuan Zhi took the two poisons back into his bosom: "Then——I wish the two of them good luck in martial arts."

"May you all get what you want."

……

……

Ogata and Machi walked side by side on the way out of Gennao's house.

As soon as he left Xuanzhi's house, Xu turned his head and took a deep look at Xuanzhi's house behind him.

"...Amachi, I remember that we carried brushes and some ink with us, right?"

"Huh? Yes. But we don't have much ink with us. What are you going to do?"

"It's nothing. I just want to write something for Xuan Zhi."

Chapter 583 Ding!A new wild ninja appeared! 【6000】

Next day, at noon—

At the foot of the mountain where Kanto Village is located——

"Finally going down the mountain..." Ah-ding, who was holding the grapes, looked at the flat plain in front of him and said with emotion.

Early this morning, when Ogata and the others were about to go down the mountain, the villagers of Kanto Village pointed out a shortcut that only people in their village knew.

Not only is this shortcut down the mountain much easier to walk, it also takes less time to get to the bottom of the mountain.It only took Ogata and the others one morning to leave the mountain where Kanto Village was located and set foot on the plain again.

Ogata raised his hand and stroked the mane of the radish beside him, then turned his head and asked Lin Ziping beside him:

"Mr. Lin, do you really intend to stay in Ezo and not consider going back to Japan with us?"

"Yeah." Lin Ziping replied without thinking, "Yeah, I plan to go north next, and continue to study and map the topography of Ezo."

Last night, after finishing the conversation with Xuan Zhi and returning to Xuan Zhi's clinic where they were staying, Xu Convenience informed Lin Ziping of their next plan to return to Japan.

Although Lin Ziping has a weird temper, he is also a person who knows what to ask and what not to ask.

He didn't ask what Ogata and Xuanzhi had talked about, nor did he ask why Ogata wanted to go back to Japan all of a sudden, he just nodded lightly, expressing "understood".

As early as last night, Ogata once asked Lin Ziping if he wanted to go back to Japan with them, but Lin Ziping said that he "will continue to stay in Ezo to do research" and refused.

"That's it..." Seeing that his invitation was rejected again, Ou showed regret, "It seems that we really have to part ways."

"I'm going to go north, and the two of you are going south." Lin Ziping smiled, "It's a veritable parting."

"Mr. Lin, you're going to travel alone next time, so be careful." A-cho on the side reminded him sincerely.

"Hahaha." Lin Ziping laughed loudly, "Don't worry. When I was Mr. Ogata's age, I had already traveled around alone to study. I am very experienced in 'traveling alone'."

——But the question is, haven’t you been caught and imprisoned by the Red Moon Fortress as a spy a while ago...

Ogata complained secretly in his heart, in order to take care of Lin Ziping's face, Ogata didn't say this.

"Again, do you remember the way back?" Lin Ziping asked at this time.

Ogata nodded: "When I left Red Moon Fortress and came to Kanto Village, I kept taking pictures and drawings, so returning to Japan is not a problem."

When Lin Ziping left the Red Moon Fortress and went north to search for Kanto Village, Ogata had been drawing and memorizing the road. In addition, Ogata had always been a person with a strong sense of direction and memory, and he still remembered walking through Which roads, so it is not difficult for Ogata to return to Japan by the original road.

"That's good." After Lin Ziping nodded, he asked a new question, "Then after you return to the Matsumae Domain, is there a way to return to Japan by boat?"

"This...not really." Ah-Ming scratched his hair at the sideburns, and continued, "After returning to the Matsumae Domain, we can only take one step at a time to see if there is a way to get on a ship back to Japan. "

"In that case... before I leave, let me do you one last favor."

"Do you know the smuggling boats that specialize in helping people smuggle between Japan and Ezo?"

Both Ogata and A-Machi shook their heads blankly—it was the first time they had heard of this.

"It's very troublesome to go back to Japan or go to Ezo by proper means."

"And you also know that there are always some people who are inconvenient to travel by boat between mainland Japan and Ezo by proper means."

"So the 'smuggling boat' came into being."

"When you arrive at Matsumae Castle in the Matsumae Domain, you go to a grocery store called 'Dingjiangya'."

"That grocery store is an ordinary store selling groceries on the surface, but in fact the 'product' they mainly sell is to help people smuggle in."

"When you arrive at Dingjiang House, you tell the person at the counter, 'A piece of reed is going to cross the sea'."

"This is their code, as long as you report this code, they will start to help you arrange smuggling."

"By the way—I came to Ezo this time, and I took the stowaway boat of Dingjiangya."

"Dingjiangwu...'A piece of reed will cross the sea'..." Ogata chewed on the name of the shop and this sentence repeatedly, keeping them in mind, "Thank you, Mr. Lin. This is very useful to us."

Ogata thanked Lin Ziping sincerely.

"You're welcome, it's just a small favor not worth mentioning."

After all, Lin Ziping paused, then put on a somewhat regretful expression, and sighed softly:

"Although I haven't been with you for a long time, it is a very rare and precious experience in my life to be able to travel with the famous and respected executioner Yidao Zhai."

"I have done everything I can do for you."

"Next, I can only wish you prosperous martial arts."

"Yeah." Ogata nodded vigorously, "I also wish you can complete the research on Ezo as soon as possible."

"Ah, that's right." Lin Ziping said suddenly at this moment, "Mr. Ogata. Before we part, can you do me a favor?"

"Little busy? Please tell me."

"I don't remember if I told you about this." Lin Ziping raised his hand and stroked his bald scalp because of his old age hair, "I plan to write a new book."

"The content of this new book is mainly to introduce how important 'enhancing coastal defense' is to Japan as a maritime country."

"I have already written most of the content of this book. I will publish this book after I successfully complete the topographical survey of Ezo and return to Japan."

"But I don't know what a better title to give."

"I've never been one to come up with names."

"About the title of the book, Ogata-kun, can you give me some advice?"

"A suggestion for the title of the book..." Ogata pondered for a moment, then smiled wryly, "I'm not very good at naming names..."

"If possible, I can think of a title that can succinctly summarize the content of this book." Lin Ziping said.

"If that book of yours introduces the importance of enhancing coastal defense...then you shouldn't give it a fancy name. After all, it's a serious book..." Ogata pondered again, "Then..."Sea Country How about "Bing Tan"?"
