"Two benefactors." Xian Hai bowed to Ogata and said softly, "Because the two benefactors' visit today was too sudden, the monk did not have time to take these beddings to dry, so I would like to ask you two
Donor forgive me."
"It's okay, it's okay." Ating smiled and waved his hand, "We don't mind these things."
"Then - little monk, let's help the two donors lay out their bedding."
Although Xianhai said that he did not need the help of Ogata and Atachi, they were embarrassed to sit aside and watch Xianhai spread the bedding. They still came forward and worked together with Xianhai to lay the two beddings side by side.
.
Ogata was also very curious about Xianhai, the "former prisoner", thinking that he should have a lot of information to dig out.
So when they were laying down the bedding together, Kiankai next to Ogata spoke to him:
"Xianhai, why did you convert to Tianxiang Sect and practice Buddhism with Zonghai in Tianman Temple?"
"There's no particular reason."
Xianhai never showed much expression, and when answering Ogata's questions, he still looked expressionless.
"Xiao Monk was originally a thief. He and my brother made a living by stealing."
"After being caught by the government, he was directly transferred to this island. Xiaoseng and his partner unfortunately became one of the second batch of prisoners to land on this island."
"We have no ability other than stealing. It is simply difficult to survive on such an island full of dangers."
"On the first day of landing on the island, not long after meeting my brother, I encountered a cannibal."
"Fortunately, I met Master Zong Hai who was out collecting medicinal materials at that time. With the help of Master Zong Hai, I got rid of the cannibal."
"It's a pity... When my brother was attacked by the cannibal, he accidentally let the cannibal's blood splash into the wound..."
"When Master Zonghai took you to visit this temple just now, did he show you the medicine in his pharmacy that is effective against the 'immortal poison'?"
"Ah..." Ogata said softly "Ah".
Because Ogata recalled: Zong Haiyou had told them just now that there were originally two pills that could cure the "immortal poison", and one of them had been given to a prisoner who was unfortunate enough to be poisoned by the immortal poison.
"That one pill was originally given to your brother..." Ogata said softly.
Xianhai, who had been expressionless since just now, finally had a faint smile on his face.
"Master Zonghai 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."
"We brothers have never been treated so kindly by anyone since we can remember..."
"The young monk is very grateful to Master Zonghai, and he is also moved by Master Zonghai's kindness and magnanimity, so he converted to Buddhism and practiced Buddhism here with Master Zonghai."
"Because the young monk entered Buddhism not long after he landed on the island and practiced here with Master Zong Hai, he doesn't know more about cannibals and the current situation of the island than Master Zong Hai."
"You two, please have a good rest tonight. If you want to know more information about the cannibals and the current situation of this island, wait until tomorrow morning to explore slowly."
Ogata heard that Xianhai's last two words were addressed to him.
Xianhai knew that Ogata wanted to get some new information out of him, so he specially added this sentence to tell Ogata: He did not have more information than Zonghai.
Seeing that Xianhai had already said so, it was not convenient for Ogata to continue asking further questions.
After quickly laying down the bedding, Kiankai bowed lightly to Ogata and Atachi, and then slowly exited their room.
"ha……"
Atachi let out a long sigh and got into the soft quilt.
"Too many things happened today..." Amachi murmured? "Not only the body... but also the brain is tired..."
"Hmm..." Ogata echoed while raising his fingers and gently rubbing his eyebrows.
Ogata deeply agreed with what Atachi said just now.
What happened today? It directly shattered Ogata's world view of the world...
Ogata doesn't believe that there really are monsters in this world that cannot be killed no matter how hard they are killed.
There must be some way to kill these cannibals.
It's a pity that this method is still gathering dust? Ogata and the others still need to find it slowly...
"Just have a good rest tonight..."
Ogata said softly.
"We'll talk about the rest tomorrow... hmm? Amachi?"
Only then did Ogata realize that Omachi had fallen asleep at some point.
Looking at A-Machi's sleeping face without any warning, Ogata smiled bitterly:
"You guy... have been on my back for most of the day today? Why do you look more tired than me..."
After expressing this emotion with a strong sense of helplessness, Ogata waved his hand and used the wind pressure from his palm to blow out the oil lamp on the side, and then silently watched the night for Omachi.
…
…
When Ogata and Amachi were in the same room together and could spend the night comfortably in bed——
"嘘嘚嘚嘚嘚嘚嘚嘚嘚..."
The sound of Makimura's teeth chattering continuously reached Mamiya's ears? It made Mamiya very annoyed.
"Makimura? Here!" Mamiya said angrily while handing Makimura the thick layer of bark he just found, "Can't you find a way to cure your cold problem?"
"How can such a thing be cured!!"
After grabbing the bark handed by Mamiya, Makimura immediately put it on himself.
Thanks to this thick layer of bark, Makimura's teeth chattered much slower.
"It really deserves to be in the wilderness..." Makimura muttered? "It's so cold at night... Mamiya, can't you really make a fire?"
"No." Mamiya said without hesitation. "Once you light a fire, you will expose your position, which will cause a lot of avoidable trouble."
"If someone dares to come to our door? The two of us will chop them all up!" Makimura yelled irritably.
"If you can avoid these troubles, avoid them. Just be patient."
After saying that, Mamiya took off the knife from his waist, held it in his arms, then leaned against the tree next to him and closed his eyes.
"Makimura, you will watch the first half of the night, and I will watch the second half of the night."
"Okay..." After saying "ok", Makimura hesitated for a while and couldn't help but asked Mamiya, "Mamiya, are there really immortal cannibals on this island? Why are we
It’s been two days since we’ve been on the island, and we haven’t even encountered a single cannibal?”
"Maybe it's because we have bad luck." Mamiya responded casually, "If we go deeper into the island, we might be able to encounter..."
Before Mamiya finished speaking, he suddenly opened his eyes and stood up quickly, scanning his sharp gaze towards the woods nearby.
The same expression changed, as well as Makimura.
Makimura, like Mamiya, glanced at the dark woods next to the two of them.
"...Don't be afraid." Mamiya said softly, "Come out openly, we are not murderous people."
After Mamiya finished speaking, some movement slowly appeared in the woods where the two people's eyes were focused.
A dark figure appeared from the woods, and then slowly approached Mamiya and Makimura...
