Volume 4: The Undead Chapter 187 A Different Kind of Hot Bath
The monk was wearing a wide bamboo hat and had his head lowered, so Ogata couldn't see the monk's face clearly.
The only thing we can tell from his body shape is that this monk is not tall and has a thin build.
And based on the voice we just heard, this monk should not be very old.
Although Ogata had no idea where this monk came from, nor did he know whether he was an enemy or a friend, under such circumstances, he had no time to think about it.
"A-Ting! Hold on for a moment! Sit tight!"
After shouting at Atachi behind him, Ogata raised his hands that were hooked around Atachi's legs again and rushed towards the direction of the monk.
The monk saw Ogata running towards him and shouted:
“Follow me!”
After leaving these words, the monk turned around and led Ogata and Atachi straight towards the northwest.
The monk seemed to be familiar with the terrain here and led the way without hesitation.
Not long after, Oobian saw a forest with dense trees ahead.
Looking ahead at the dense forest he had been searching for for so long, Ogata narrowed his eyes slightly and thought to himself:
——This guy... knows the terrain here and where there are dense forests...
"Follow closely!"
The monk in front said this to Ogata and the other two while slowly increasing his speed.
The monk plunged into the woods without any hesitation.
The monsters followed Ogata and the monk and rushed into the woods.
The monk led Ogata and his companions through the woods in a strange route.
The monk did not rush forward straight ahead, but moved in an irregular route through the woods.
Bang!
Ogata heard a loud noise coming from behind him.
Following the sound, he turned his head and looked behind him, and saw that several monsters had failed to turn in time and crashed into a big tree.
Based on the noise just now, it is not difficult to hear that those monsters hit very hard.
If it were an ordinary person, hitting the tree with such force, he would be crippled if not killed.
But for those monsters, it would only take about 2 breaths to recover.
The loud noise just now was just the beginning.
Gradually, the sound of "bang bang bang" of cars hitting trees behind Ogata became more and more frequent.
——These monsters...
Ogata said to himself while keeping an eye on his rear.
——So you’re not good at sharp turns…
Because under the guidance of the monk, Ogata and his companions were traveling in the woods along a very irregular route.
Therefore, the monsters following closely behind them had to follow them and travel through the woods in this extremely irregular route.
And these monsters don't seem to be good at turning.
Every time Ogata and his group turned a corner, some monsters would crash into trees because they failed to turn in time.
If you hit a tree at such a fast speed, you will either die or be crippled.
Although these monsters can be resurrected infinitely, resurrection still takes some time.
This amount of time was enough for Ogata and his group to run away.
Gradually, more and more monsters fell behind.
The footsteps behind Ogata gradually became less frequent.
After Ogata followed the monk through the woods for an unknown period of time, he finally heard the footsteps chasing him from behind.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Ogata slowly slowed down his pace, breathing heavily and looking behind himself.
Looking at the monsters no longer chasing him, Ogata breathed a sigh of relief:
"Did we finally get rid of them... It was a close call..."
Ogata's words "It was really dangerous" came from the bottom of his heart.
Ogata was carrying a total of 7 swords at this time - 2 on his waist and 5 on his back.
He was carrying an Atachi on his back, and the weight of Atachi's cannon, wakizashi, and pile of kunai were also pressing on Ogata.
In addition, the two of them had all kinds of miscellaneous items on them.
After running for so long while carrying so many heavy objects, Ogata's physical strength was almost exhausted.
I have to say that I was lucky enough to get rid of all those monsters before my strength ran out.
Atachi on Ogata's back now also showed a sense of relief.
Because getting rid of those monsters meant she could finally relieve her overloaded bladder.
"I don't know who you are." Ogata turned his head and thanked the monk who had also stopped walking, "But thank you for your help."
"You're welcome. It's just a small favor."
After saying this, the monk slowly turned around.
When the monk turned around, Ogata's pupils shrank slightly in surprise.
Because the monk was wearing a very scary evil ghost mask on his face.
This evil ghost mask was very large, covering the monk's entire face, leaving only his eyes exposed.
When he first met this monk, he was wearing a large bamboo hat and had his head lowered, so Ogata could not see the monk's face clearly.
When the monk led them to get rid of the monsters, Ogata could not see the monk's face because he was leading the way in front.
It was not until now that Ogata realized that this monk had always been wearing such a scary mask on his face.
Ogata was only slightly startled by the monk's mask, so his reaction was rather calm.
But this was not the case for Atachi on Ogata's back.
A-Ming seems to be easily frightened.
After seeing the terrifying evil ghost mask on the monk's face, he screamed in fear.
“Ah! Ugh…”
However - this exclamation had just come out of Ating's mouth halfway when Ating hurriedly raised his hands and covered his mouth tightly.
At the same time, the cheeks quickly turn red and hot at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Just when Ogata was about to ask what happened to Atachi, he suddenly felt his back begin to heat up...
It seemed as if... some hot water was slowly pouring down my back...
After realizing what happened, Ogata turned his stiff neck and cast a look of astonishment, disbelief, despair, etc. at Atachi behind him...
At this time, Atachi buried her head deeply in Ogata's back, her hands tightly grasping the clothes on Ogata's back, not daring to look at Ogata.
Although he couldn't see Atachi's face or her expression now, Ogata could see that both of Atachi's ears were already red.
"I'm sorry... I really tried my best to endure until the last moment..."
Atachi buried her face deep in Ogata's back and made an apology sound like a mosquito's hum.
"……It's fine."
Ogata did not let out a helpless sigh, nor did he reprimand Atachi.
He just smiled bitterly and continued to comfort Atachi:
"It's just a small matter."
After saying that, Ogata silently took a few steps back with Atachi on his back, moving a little further away from the monk.
"Hmm?" The monk asked Ogata in confusion, "Why did this donor suddenly retreat?"
"Nothing." Ogata showed the monk a not-so-nice smile, "Don't worry about us..."
