"Tengami...... Sect? Ogata turned his tongue and spat out unfamiliar words.

As for Zong Hai on the side, his eyes lit up, and he said to Ah Machi in a tone that included a little joy:

"What a surprise...... I didn't expect you to recognize the school of thought that the little monk converted. ”

"Yes, as you said, it is the Tianxiang Sect that the little monk and Xianhai have taken refuge in."

"Amachi." With a puzzled face, Ogata asked Amachi, "What is Tenjo Sect?" ”

"It's a very small, very small school of Buddhism in our country."

Amachi explained to Ogata.

"The monks of the Tianxiang Sect only worship the King of Fudoming."

"In the Warring States Period more than 200 years ago, even Buddhist temples were difficult to survive the war, and a small school like Tianxiangzong naturally withered incense."

"In order to maintain the normal operation of the major monasteries, the monks of the Tianxiang Sect are determined to find ways to increase the income of the monasteries."

"And the way they found was to sell the most popular product in the Warring States period, knives."

"At that time, Master Yan Hai of the Tianxiang Sect was an unborn sword-casting genius."

"He's developed a unique knife-casting technique."

"The knives made by this sword-casting technique are far harder, tougher, and sharper than other knives."

"It is also thanks to Master Yan Hai's unique knife casting method that the knife produced by Tianxiang Sect has become a bestseller."

"But because Tianxiang Sect is only a small school after all, there are not many monks, and there are even fewer monks who can master this unique knife casting method, so the number of knives that Tianxiang Sect can produce every year is not much."

"Therefore, the knives forged by Tianxiang Sect are basically regarded as valuable treasures and sold to various daimyo or wealthy merchants, so Tianxiang Sect only has a very resounding reputation among these big people with heads and faces. On the side of the general public, it is not well-known. ”

"After Toyotomi Hideyoshi established Taiko, unified the world, and issued the 'Sword Hunting Order', in order to avoid being affected by the 'Sword Hunting Order', the Heavenly Direction Sect no longer sold swords and no longer cast swords, and his daily actions became extremely low-key."

"The Tianxiang Sect is a small school that few people know about, and after deciding to act in a more low-key manner, gradually fewer people know about their existence."

"I heard that after Tianxiang Sect decided not to cast swords anymore, he turned to medicine and increased the income of the temple by selling medicines to the outside world."

"Although the Tianxiang Sect no longer casts swords, their unique swordsmanship is still passed down from generation to generation."

After Amachi briefly told the history of the Heavenly Direction Sect, Zong Hai on the side praised Amachi in a praising tone:

"Female donor, you know a lot."

"Because of my profession, I still know some things that ordinary people don't know." Amachi smiled slightly.

"What the female benefactor just said is exactly what she said." Zong Haidao, "After Toyotomi Taiko issued the 'Sword Hunting Order', in order to avoid being affected by the 'Sword Hunting Order', my ancestors decided not to cast knives anymore, nor to sell knives to others. ”

"Instead, I went to research medicine and earned my income by selling medicine to the outside world."

"But we haven't given up on the swordsmithing that we're so proud of."

"Not only have we not given up on our sword-casting technique, but our ancestors have continued to refine this technique through generations."

"The little monk's mentor is very fortunate to inherit the sword-casting technique that has been passed down from generation to generation in our Tianxiang Sect."

"The little monk's mentor is a genius of casting, and he not only perfectly inherits the sword-casting technique that has been passed down from generation to generation in our Tianxiang Sect, but also on this basis? New innovations were made. ”

"Great Liberation Heaven and Great Self in these 2 treasure swords? It is the treasure knife forged by his mentor with the 'Tianxiang Sect Casting Knife Technique' that he has improved. ”

After quietly listening to Sokai's introduction, Ogata sighed:

"I didn't expect Zong Hai that the school you converted to would have such a big background......

After Ogata made this exclamation, Amachi on the side suddenly asked Sokai:

"By the way? Zonghai. I've been hearing you talk about your mentor since just now. What about your teacher? How do you get from entering Tenmanji Temple? We haven't seen your mentor? ”

"Of course you won't see my mentor." Zong Hai showed a faint wry smile, "Teacher, he died of illness half a year ago. ”

"Half a year ago? The teacher relapsed due to an old stomach problem? He died of illness on his bed. ”

As soon as Zong Hai said this, Ah Machi's expression froze instantly.

"Ah...... Sorry......"

"Female benefactor? No need to apologize. Birth, old age, sickness and death are just ordinary things, not to mention that the teacher was 68 years old when he died, and he was already old. It is a blessing to be able to live to die at such an old age. ”

“…… Zonghai. Ogata said in a deep voice at this time? " Your mentor died of illness half a year ago...... Isn't he ...... now? ...... you become a cannibal? ”

According to the information that Zong Hai just provided to them - since one day 2 years ago? The islanders of this island will come back to life after death and become ogres who cannot be killed no matter how they kill.

Since Zong Hai's mentor died of illness half a year ago? It happened to be at the time when the "Cannibal Rebellion" was raging on this island......

Ogata had thought that Sokai's mentor must have also come back from the dead and become an ogre.

But who knows-Zong Hai actually shook his head with a calm face.

“…… No. ”

"Mentor him...... After dying of illness, he just died an ordinary death. ”

"He didn't come back from the dead and become a man-eater."

"When the little monk was providing you two with information about the cannibal just now, he forgot to tell the two of you: although everyone on this island will become ogres after death? But the little monk's mentor is the only exception. ”

Ogata and Amachi looked at Munekai in astonishment at the same time.

"Huh? Why is that? "Amachi said urgently?" Why would your mentor be an exception? ”

"About this...... The little monk was also puzzled. Zong Hai sighed lightly? " The little monk was also puzzled...... I can't figure out why he is the only exception. ”

"Is it because your teacher practiced the Dharma that he is protected by the Dharma?" In a cautious tone, Amachi threw out a possibility.

"Unlikely...... Zong Hai said in a deep voice, "Many villagers who have unfortunately become ogres are also devout believers......

Speaking of this, Zong Hai sighed heavily: "About cannibals...... There are still too many mysteries......"

……

……

After taking Ogata and Amachi to see the ancestral hall that originally enshrined the two swords of Daishoten and Daiji, Sokai officially led the two into the back hall of Tenmanji Temple.

The back hall of Tenmanji Temple is much more spacious.

Cottages, bathrooms, living rooms, guest rooms, dining rooms, ...... Rooms with all kinds of functions are available.

There is nothing nice about the thatched house and the living room.

A special room in the back hall of Tenmanji caught the attention of Ogata and Amachi.

This room is the room where Zong Hai studies medicine.
