Volume 4: The Undead Chapter 191 Immortal Poison
"Because they were abandoned by the shogunate, everyone on the island can only save themselves."
"About a year ago, at the call of Chikanosuke, the village chief of Fenghe Village, villagers from other villages fled to Fenghe Village with their families."
"Then, with the concerted efforts of everyone, a wooden wall was built outside Fenghe Village."
"Keep all the ogres out of the wall."
"The remaining islanders now live inside this wooden wall."
"Since the wooden wall was built, I have not seen the villagers again, so I don't know what the villagers who are still alive are doing now."
"Eh?" Ating raised his eyebrows. "When the villagers built a wall to avoid those cannibals, Zong Hai, didn't you move in with them inside the wooden wall?"
"If I live with the villagers, it will affect my practice." Zong Hai smiled slightly, "Besides, my temple is in a remote location, and it is impossible for cannibals to knock on my door in the middle of the night."
Hearing what Zong Hai said, Ogata and A-Machi nodded, expressing their agreement with Zong Hai.
Tenmanji Temple is located in such a remote area that even birds won’t poop here.
Living in such a remote place is indeed quite safe.
"I thought cannibal ghosts would really eat people..." Ating muttered, "It turns out they don't eat people, they only attack people..."
As soon as Ating finished speaking, Xianhai, who had been eating silently and not speaking, suddenly said:
"I heard that the name 'Man-eating Ghost' was given by that 'Tiger Inamori'."
"At that time, it was Tiger Daosen who led the army to the island to eliminate the cannibal ghosts."
"So he has also witnessed the horror of the cannibals himself."
"The cannibal is tireless and uses every part of its body that can be used to attack living people. It really looks like a demon that feeds on humans."
"That's probably why Tiger Inamori named those monsters 'Man-Eating Ghosts'."
"Compared to 'cannibal ghost', I think the name 'immortal' is more appropriate."
"You are one of the second batch of prisoners who landed on the island, right?" As soon as Xianhai finished speaking, Xu Fang immediately asked him, "I want to ask you - will the government really fulfill its promise of amnesty?"
"Yes." Xianhai said softly, "Seven days after the prisoners land on the island, a government ship will indeed dock."
"As long as you can drag over three corpses of cannibals, or dig up information related to cannibals, you can get on board."
"It's just that no one can successfully board the ship. No one can do anything to the immortal ogre."
"Aren't there any prisoners who want to rob the ship?" asked Ating.
"Of course there are." Xianhai smiled bitterly, " There are many people who want to rob the government's boat."
“But no one has ever succeeded.”
"The government ship is full of fully armed elite soldiers. There are at least 200 of them."
"We have all the necessary equipment, including bows and arrows and cannons."
"Who has the ability to seize a ship like this?"
"The government ship will stay on shore for three days."
"After three days, I will leave."
Having said this, Xianhai paused as if he remembered something.
Then he whispered:
"Master Zong Hai missed something just now."
"Besides being immortal and tireless, those cannibals are also extremely terrifying."
"That is, their blood is terrible."
As soon as Xianhai finished speaking, Zonghai let out a soft "ah".
"Right..." Zong Hai patted his bald head in annoyance, "I forgot about this... I'm so ashamed..."
"What's wrong with the cannibal's blood?" Ogata asked hurriedly, "Could it be that if the cannibal's blood enters the body, will it turn into a cannibal?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ogata's mind recalled the zombie movies he had watched in modern Earth.
"That won't happen." Zong Hai said with a wry smile, "There are currently two known ways to become a cannibal: death; or suddenly becoming a cannibal one day in the future."
"The blood of cannibals is very poisonous. I call it 'immortal poison'."
"If you let the blood of a cannibal enter your body, such as drinking it or letting the blood of a cannibal splash into your wound, you will be poisoned immediately."
"The poison is extremely strong. Anyone who is poisoned by it will vomit blood and then die suddenly."
"Fortunately, people who are poisoned by the immortality poison will not become cannibals after being poisoned to death. This should be a blessing in disguise."
After hearing what Zong Hai said, Ogata and A-Machi both thought of the corpses with large amounts of vomited blood next to them that they had seen in the village today.
"Although cannibals are scary, they are not so scary that they are difficult to deal with."
"The scariest thing about cannibals is 4 o'clock."
Zong Hai stretched out four fingers.
"Can't be killed."
“Tireless.”
"It will attack anyone it sees like crazy."
"The blood is highly toxic."
"Besides that, there's nothing else to be afraid of about cannibals."
"It doesn't matter if you get caught or bitten by a cannibal, just don't let their blood enter your body."
"As long as you don't let the cannibal's blood enter your body, everything will be fine."
"If you pay more attention to the blood of the ogres and make good use of their two weaknesses, even if you can't kill them, you can easily get rid of them."
"Weakness?" Ogata asked anxiously, "What is the weakness of the cannibal?"
"Ghosts have two major weaknesses - they only attack living people within their field of vision, and their bodies are clumsy."
"Ghosts still have their hearing and are attracted to noises."
"But they will only attack living people within their field of vision."
"That means you just need to run where they can't see you, and they won't attack you."
"And their vision is just that of an average person."
"As for their bodies... I think you two benefactors should have discovered it today. Although cannibals have inexhaustible physical strength, their bodies are very clumsy."
"Things like making tight turns, they're not very good at doing."
"As long as we make good use of the complex terrain and the fact that cannibals only attack living people in front of them, we can easily get rid of them. "
After quietly listening to Zong Hai tell all the information he knew about the cannibal ghost, Ogata breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, those cannibals are not zombies, and you won’t turn into the same kind after being bitten by them.
But while feeling fortunate, Ogata's heavy heart did not ease much ...
Because although these cannibals are not zombies, their characteristics of being unkillable, not getting tired, and having extremely toxic blood are also extremely troublesome...
