"If you're a dragon, that's fine."

(The above is the last words of the discouraged brother in "Dark Souls 3".) ）

"What have you been talking about there since just now?"

Butterfly frowned impatiently.

When morale was at its lowest, the crow found the trace of the ghost, and her sense of responsibility forced her to act, and this guy said something she didn't understand on the side, plus her stomach hurt faintly since just now, she was really a little annoyed.

"Please don't care, I'm just reminded of an old friend who gets easily discouraged."

Ichiro said casually, and then immediately changed the subject: "Have you finished checking?" What the hell is going on with these two people, is it poisoning or? ”

At this moment, the two had come to the small entrance gate on the bank of the Rashomon River.

As the crow had informed, the two men huddled in agony in front of the small door, smelling of rotting from the inside, and they couldn't even notice it.

These two people, one kept coughing up blood, and was almost choked to death by their own phlegm; The other looked even more miserable, his body eerily shrunken and turning into a skinny skeleton at a rate visible to the naked eye.

When Genichiro observed them with his psychic vision, he could only see a strange green mist trapped in their lungs and stomachs, but he didn't know exactly what happened to them.

But that green mist has something to do with ghosts, that's for sure.

Near such a small Rashomon, there is indeed a second ghost, which is really worthy of this terrifying name.

"I've checked it, it's not as simple as poisoning."

Butterfly Shinobu shook her head slightly, and smashed a bubble of red jelly-like substance on the ground with the twig she had skimmed. This is exactly what the coughing man coughed out, "It should be a disease." ”

"Disease?"

With a solemn look in her eyes, she pointed to the skin and bones with a branch, "His symptoms are like the deteriorating symptoms of a stomach cancer patient." ”

Then he turned to the coughing man who was bleeding from his mouth, "And his condition is a bit like a severe infection of pneumonia, and some symptoms of tuberculosis." ”

Butterfly couldn't help but pause, and then emphasized: "But the key problem is that their condition deteriorates a thousand times faster than normal patients!" ”

"If you can do this kind of abnormal performance, it is definitely the effect of the blood ghost technique."

"The only question now is why that ghost put all the blood ghost magic on them, but didn't eat them."

Encountering a full seven ghosts in two nights, and two of them possessing blood ghost magic, it is no wonder that Butterfly Ninja's mentality is about to collapse.

"Tsk."

Ichiro took a step back, for fear of being infected by the two patients, "You have used the pills and antidote powder just now, and they are of little use to them. If you want to save them, you can only do so by dealing with the ghost and making the blood ghost spell useless. ”

To be honest, although his pills were no longer precious after removing the pottery shards from the prize pool, he still felt a little pity that it was so easy to use for two passers-by.

But Butterfly Shinobu insisted on doing so, and bought the pills and antidote powder in the name of the Demon Slayer Team, and he had no reason to refuse.

However, the results of the use also just reminded him that the pills and the antidote powder were ineffective against this ghost's blood ghost technique, so he had to be extremely careful.

"You're right, but we don't know anything about the ghost's location."

Butterfly Shinobu nodded approvingly, "Now, we have to find a way to get the two of them to speak." ”

At this point, she suddenly had an idea, and took out a bottle of pure wisteria flower liquid from her waist bag, which was not adulterated with any other toxins.

But despite this, ordinary wisteria flower sap is also harmful to the human body. If it weren't for the emergency, she would never have given it directly to humans.

"Since their symptoms are caused by blood demon magic, Wisteria may be able to resolve them."

With the mentality of giving it a try, she pointed to the skinny bones where the musculature was still shrinking, "Take a hand, help me break his mouth open and keep his esophagus open." ”

Cancer is not contagious.

So Genichiro immediately complied, and by the way, he turned on his spiritual vision and carefully observed his skinny body.

As Butterfly Shinobu poured 14 of the wisteria flower into the man's mouth, the green smoke that had condensed in his stomach seemed to be driven away by something.

But it was only temporarily suppressed.

When the wisteria flower juice is neutralized by the gastric juice, the green mass will make a comeback.

"It's finished."

As soon as Genichiro's words fell, the half of the pill that he had taken before immediately began to take effect.

Although the body has no intention of recovering, his skinny face has improved slightly. Half a minute later, he was able to open his eyes and answer questions.

"Don't talk nonsense, I'll answer you."

Butterfly Shinobu could see that the effect of the wisteria flower was not long-lasting, and if the ghost was not dealt with as soon as possible, it would not be possible to completely save the two of them.

There is no more time to delay.

"Did you encounter any strange people or things before you became ill?"

The man originally wanted to thank him, but when he saw that Butterfly Shinobi's expression was so serious, he replied directly, "We came back directly from the doctor in front of Kurosuke Inari Torii after moving the body." It's just that I didn't expect that as soon as I came out of this door, something was wrong with my body......"

"Doctor?"

Ichiro grasped the key word, "What doctor?" Where's the doctor so late? ”

"It's the new doctor from the abandoned house today, we don't know what his name is, he looks quite young. Patients who can't be treated at Horiuchi Hospital, or who don't want to treat them, are usually sent to the doctor at the morgue to see if he can be saved. ”

At this point, his face suddenly turned ugly, "We are like this, it can't be because of what he did to us, right?" ”

"That's how it should be."

Butterfly Shinobu didn't explain much, but asked, "Where was this doctor when you left?" ”

"Still in the cabin next to the morgue."

The man said with some trepidation: "When we left, he told us to bring more patients in the future, saying that he would give us 10 yuan for each person he brought." I thought he was a good guy. ”

Morgue.

The new doctor.

Take the sick person over.

As soon as these keywords came out, Butterfly Shinobu was already able to confirm that this doctor was definitely not a serious human being, and 99% of them were evil ghosts.

Since they are evil spirits, why don't they kill these two guys on the spot, and let them wait here to die?

Could it be that this ghost is weak in frontal combat?

"Wait, you just said, take the patient over?"

Butterfly Shinobi's face immediately became extremely ugly, "Did you also bring him a patient today?" ”

"Yes, yes."

The man was frightened by Butterfly's expression, and replied with a shrunken voice, "There is a little girl who is seriously injured, and there is a wandering girl who has a dirty disease, but the two of them look like they don't have much time left......"

Butterfly Shinobu and Ichiro looked at each other, knowing that they had to act immediately, and they had to rush over as soon as possible before the two patients were eaten.

She took out a vial and handed it to Skinny Bone, "If you feel a stomach ache again in a while, drink a little of the potion inside, and don't forget to feed some to your companion as well." ”

The man took the potion and thanked him, but his eyes flickered as he glanced at his companion who was coughing up blood, not knowing what he was thinking.

Butterfly Shinobu keenly observed this, reached out sharply and grabbed his collar, and warned in a deep voice, "This is medicine for the two of you." I'll come back in a while, and if I find him dead, I'll bury you alive too." ”

"Don't try to run, you can't run away."

Her purple eyes were full of cold air, and her gaze penetrated this person's internal organs like sharp arrows, "You, listen, understand, right?" “

She was already in a bad mood for various reasons, and when she found out that she had saved such a person, her temper became more and more irritable.

The man was so frightened that he couldn't speak, so he could only nod frantically like a chicken pecking rice.

It's terrifying, it can't be some kind of female ghost.

"Mark my words."

Butterfly Shinobu then let go of his collar and entered the small door with Ichiro and ran quickly in the direction where Kurosuke Inari was.

The two of them walked along the narrow road for less than 100 meters, and Ichiro saw an overwhelming number of paper figures rushing towards him!

There are fifty-six of them.

This means that this ghost, whom he has not yet met, has killed a full fifty-six people in one month!

Even the fourth of the lower string that I met last time didn't have so many paper figures on my body.

It can be seen that this time it has encountered hard stubble again.

"Stop!"

Ichiro quickly grabbed the butterfly shinobi.

"What are you doing?"

Butterfly Shinobu frowned and pointed to the candlelit hut in front of the torii gate dozens of meters away, "That ghost and those two people are in that house." ”

"It's all said don't be impulsive."

Genichiro said, "I know you are eager to save people, but you have also seen it before, that guy's blood ghost technique is very weird, we must prepare in advance, otherwise we will only be sent to death." ”

Butterfly Shinobi's face improved slightly.

But for some reason, Genichiro always felt as if she was uncomfortable, and her forehead was covered with fine sweat.

"The wisteria flower liquid on your body is the only thing that can temporarily suppress that kind of blood ghost magic, how much is there now?"

"Two bottles." Butterfly Shinobu handed him one of the bottles, "The rest are the poison we prepared when we returned to the Butterfly House at noon, and we can't take it." ”

Ichiro was silent for a while, but decided to hand Butterfly Shinobu a piece of dried candy and Harsho candy, and teach her how to use it.

"Do you need to be so careful? How powerful can a guy who kills people with this kind of blood ghost magic be? ”

Butterfly said this, but still stuffed two pieces of Buddha candy into her pocket. Ichiro's intuition (spiritual vision) has been tested many times, and since he has become so careful, there must be some reason.

It's just that the pride of being an elderly person makes it impossible for her to follow a child's advice so easily.

Xianichiro still doesn't feel very safe, and remembers that he still has four skill points that are useless, so he simply points them all, quite like the posture of going back to the fire sacrifice field to find a fireproof girl to upgrade before the boss of "Black Soul".

Although this battle is most likely to be conducted in the open air, and he still has Ba Zhilei's back, but this is a hole card, and it is best not to use it.

At present, in addition to the several sword types of the breath of water and the breath of flowers, there are only two books that can be learned, "Ninja Move Skill Book" and "Senfeng Temple Fist Skill Book", and the skills that can be lit up are also very limited.

The most annoying thing is that the skills in the skill book can only be done gradually, so even some useless skills must be learned.

But the big war was ahead, and Ichiro was close without the slightest hesitation.

[Spent 1 skill point, learn ninja physical arts: Dash concealment!] 】

Dash Concealment: The first attack after a dash, or breaking the concealment, deals 50% more damage.

In other words, the assassination of Koichiro in the future, and the attack after each high-speed displacement, the effect can be compared to the use of Yaksha Candy.

[Spent 2 Skill Points, Learn Resident Effect: Breath Hold!] 】

Breath Hold: When you hold your breath, you will completely become one with the environment, and the enemy will not be able to perceive your presence until you breathe again.

When Ichiro saw the breath-holding explanation, and then thought of the hidden launch conditions of the sprint, he suddenly had an idea in his heart.

He looked at the candlelit hut and whispered to Shinobu Butterfly, "We'll do this in a moment......"

After listening to his thoughts, Butterfly Shinobu looked at him with a strange expression: "The five senses of ghosts are very sensitive, are you sure you won't be discovered?" ”

"Anyway, this is the safest, after all, he still has hostages in his hands, if he rushes in......"

"Okay then."

Butterfly Shinobu finally nodded in agreement.

……

Inside the house.

After emptying and eating the internal organs of the woman who was infected with syphilis and cured by him, the man in green licked his fingers unsatisfied.

Perhaps it was the blood ghost art that caused his sense of taste to be very unique among the ghosts.

He found that after human beings get sick, special factors will be formed in the body to resist this disease, and the existence of this factor will completely change the taste of this person's flesh and blood.

If they are cured with the help of blood demon magic, the miso effect of this factor will be doubled when the patients are regained to life, and they are killed in an instant full of hope and gratitude, and even the cells in their bodies are cheering!

Therefore, after becoming a ghost, the green-clad ghost has been haunting major hospitals, specifically searching for people who are dying with incurable diseases, then curing them of terminal diseases, and then suddenly taking their lives when they think they have been given a new life.

At this time, he was writing and drawing in a notebook.

"Ingredients, young woman with syphilis."

"Liver, mellow taste, 8 points."

"Kidneys, a little spicy, 4 points."

"Heart, poor chewiness, ...... bad reviews"

It wasn't until he had filled a full page that he turned his gaze to another straw mat, where there lay Kikuei, who had already fainted in fright.

If it weren't for her faint snort, others would have thought she was dead.

After all, not every child in his early teens can calmly witness another human being disemboweled in front of her.

"Gee, is this being crushed from the stomach by a wheel? The ribs are poking into the organs, it's pitiful. ”

The man in green pressed his hand on Kiku's ribs and used the kind of blood demon technique that could absorb disease, but nothing happened.

His face couldn't help but feel sad.

"It's a shame that trauma isn't my specialty."

He lowered his head and sniffed at the wound, "Although there is no disease, it is a pity to throw away such a tender little lamb, so let's wait for the prostitute Taro to say that the ghost hunter is here, and eat it together." ”

"Speaking of which, I've been waiting for so long, why haven't they arrived yet."

However, as soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden knock on the door, followed by a pleasant female voice.

Although his voice sounded a little nervous, he spoke very unexpectedly.

"Moxi Moxi~ Is Mr. Ghost here?"

"If you can't kill yourself, can you open the door and come out? I'd be happy to help you with that. ”
