Kanoya: "Then I'll tidy up and go see Grandpa Watanabe."
Xigui: "Okay, Mr. Watanabe is right at the entrance of the village."
Xiaolu closed the window again and walked to the center of the room in two steps.
She didn't know if she woke up suddenly from sleep, but what was happening in Songze Village was beyond her scope of cognition.
"Old hunter Watanabe, wasn't he killed by me in his leech-man state?"
Kanoya was very sure that Watanabe had died last night, and this was confirmed by Little Old Man No. 3.
So there can be no mistake.
Could it be that the leech man defeated in the forest last night was not Watanabe?
Not right either.
Xigui said that old hunter Watanabe was attacked by an unknown monster in the forest last night and lost his shotgun.
This is consistent with Kanoya's behavior last night.
So what's going on?
Lu Yewu suddenly thought of a piece of information of unknown meaning he obtained when he contacted his master last night: "Bliss... and eternal life..."
Are the people of Songze immortal?
Compared to Watanabe's resurrection from the dead, Kanoya is now more worried about his own situation.
"Since old hunter Watanabe is not dead, does he know that the so-called monster that attacked him last night was me?"
If he knew, the little deer would be doomed.
Perhaps because he saw what his eldest lady was thinking, the little old man No. 3 whispered something beside him, and combined with gestures and writing on the ground, it took some time to finally convey what he wanted to express to Luye.
Room.
According to the little old man, although Watanabe came back from the dead, he probably didn't know what the "monster" was that attacked him last night.
First of all, the scouts used their super-high perception ability to carefully observe the situation of the Matsuzawa people in the "leech man" state last night. Whether they were living leech men or "dead" leech men, they had carefully observed them.
Pass.
The little old man can conclude that after the Songze villagers turn into leech people, their intelligence level will decrease, and their visual ability will be almost non-existent. They can only rely on degenerated and deformed noses with two holes and moist skin to sense the air.
The flow and the smell mixed with it.
This point was mentioned repeatedly during last night's exploration.
When attacking Watanabe, the smell of Kanoya's body was completely eliminated by the scent of "plum blossoms".
Under those circumstances, there was no reason for Watanabe to recognize her.
Secondly, before my eldest lady woke up just now, the little old man escaped into the void and explored the area around his home.
No exception.
The Matsuzawa people did not take any action against Kanoya's home.
Suppose the old hunter Watanabe knew that the monster that attacked him last night was Kanoya, and brought the news back to the village. Then Kanoya, who is not a hunter, went out privately and attacked his fellow villagers, committing such evil deeds. He pays attention to harmony and friendship.
Songze Village must not be able to accommodate her.
The hunters in Matsuzawa must have loaded their weapons with ammunition and surrounded the area around Luyeya's "home".
According to Kumiko Sugiura's information, Hunter Matsuzawa once killed normal people who had not yet been assimilated and tried to escape from the village.
So if Kanoya's outing behavior is really discovered, there is no reason why he would be given special treatment and indulgence.
Based on these circumstances, Little Old Man No. 3 feels that the eldest lady does not need to be too pessimistic, and there is a high probability that it is still safe.
"So our actions last night were not discovered? Old hunter Watanabe called me an 'unknown monster' because he really couldn't tell who I was when I only had a little bit of 'plum blossom' smell on my body?"
After Lu Yewu finished communicating with the little old man, he calmed down a little.
At the same time, I comforted myself in my mind. Even if I didn’t have confidence in myself, I should still have confidence in Teacher Yunju’s incense magic and the magical props given by Master. Because of their care, I must have had no problem handling the smell last night.
of.
"So, what should I do next? Go to the village entrance to check on the old hunter Watanabe like everyone else?"
"Abba."
Since many people in the village have gone there, I should also go to Luye House.
While being able to show his face in front of fellow villagers, he might also be able to get some information about the "resurrection from the dead" of the Songze people.
"Well, that's all I can do for now."
Luyewu tidied up, opened the door and left the house.
She felt that what she was doing now was dancing on the edge of a knife, which was full of dangers.
However, this dance on the tip of the knife did not just start at this moment, but kicked off as early as yesterday when she fell into Songze Village.
…
There is a big pine tree at the entrance of Songze Village, and many villagers are gathering here at the moment.
Bustling and bustling.
Next to the old-fashioned Songze natives, one or two modern people in fashionable clothes can be seen standing side by side. People from the old era and people from the new era are affectionate and affectionate, with joyful smiles on each other's faces, as if they have always been there.
Compatriots living together in harmony.
Kanoya came here and carefully observed the situation. He felt that the Matsuzawa people did not pay much attention to her arrival.
In the center of the crowd, the old hunter Watanabe and another sturdy middle-aged man were surrounded by villagers, recounting their experiences on the "forest patrol" last night——
"I only smelled a strange smell, and then suddenly my head hurt, and I passed out. When I woke up again, it was already dawn, and the gun I carried with me was gone..."
Kanoya stood on the outskirts of the crowd, stood on tiptoes and stretched his neck to look inside for a while.
She thought in her mind: "It's true that I was the one who attacked them last night, but it wasn't as simple as knocking them unconscious. The heads of the two leech men were dented by me."
But looking at the two Watanabes now, their heads are intact, with no trace of injury at all.
In addition, the two people who were resurrected by the deceased were completely soaked, as if they had just crawled out of the water, with water dripping from their hair and clothes.
But neither hunter gave any explanation, and none of the villagers watching asked questions.
It seems like this is a normal thing.
In addition, Kanoya also noticed that the smell of water on the Watanabe duo was significantly stronger and fresher than that of other Matsuzawa people.
"In short, there are wild wolves and monsters in the mountains and forests, and the village is very dangerous..."
Watanabe and another hunter, who were currently the focus of the crowd, were still talking, but their faces were cheerful.
The villagers who were watching also burst into laughter from time to time.
With so much laughter and laughter, the atmosphere at the scene did not seem to be telling the story of the village's critical survival. Instead, it seemed that Watanabe and another hunter were like a pair of comedians, performing cartoons for everyone.
The people in the village gathered at the entrance of the village for a long time, and finally dispersed happily.
Luyeya also left with the crowd, and the people in Matsuzawa treated her in a normal manner throughout the process.
This made her feel a little relieved: "It seems that the people in Matsuzawa really didn't realize what I did last night."
Back home, the deer took another nap for a while to recharge his batteries.
After getting up, I drank some water and ate more than half of the sandwich because I was hungry.
"I don't know when Master will come to save me. My drinking water and food consumption are also a big problem."
Luyewu is facing many problems now.
During the afternoon, she stayed in the village, looking around, and met Kumiko Sugiura.
This woman was not trustworthy. Kanoya only talked to her in vain, and even heard her talk about her daughter Hina.
During this period, Kanoya thought of trying to ask her why the Matsuzawa people were "immortal".
But I don’t know how to phrase it better, so I can’t just say it directly——
"I sneaked out last night and killed two leech men, but they came back in human form during the day. What do you think about this?"
As for Kumiko Sugiura, she only hinted at the deer's issues about food and drinking water in a very subtle way.
