The 'ghosts' of the dungeon world in front of him are different from the ghosts that Jason has come into contact with.

Although it has a similar collective name, the latter is intangible and tasteless, but the former is not only tangible, but also has a pretty good food aroma.

So, after that 'ghost' appeared, Jason went straight back to the shore and started simple cooking.

The convenience of [Charles's Burning Technique] made Jason take the brunt of the barbecue mode.

The meat is firm, salty without seasoning, and has a slight spicy taste.

It feels like Jason is gnawing on a spicy duck neck.

【Devourer (Small)】

[Moderate recovery of physical strength, energy, and injuries!] 】

Satiety +30

[Satiety: 1068]

……

Compared with the previous 'food', the satiety of the 'ghost' has obviously risen to a higher level.

Moreover, the word 'small' in parentheses made Jason feel excited.

Since there is small, there is big.

The small ones have 30 degrees of satiety, and the large ones should be at least 3-5 times more so.

Even, more.

Of course, more importantly, there is a high probability that there will be a 'food excitement'.

At the thought of this, the corners of Jason's mouth couldn't help but turn up.

Although his existing 'Excitement of Food' was enough to raise [Evil Protection] to the point of transcendence, Jason definitely didn't mind the 'Excitement of Food' a little more.

That was for later, though.

Right now?

Jason stared at the 'Oni River' in front of him, his eyes glowing with brilliance.

When he first saw 'Oni no River', Jason forced himself to leave with hunger.

The entire 'Oni no River' has a faint smell of food.

Although it is almost inaudible, it is still not to be missed by Jason.

After all, it's a shame to waste food!

Disc action, that's right!

It's just that at that time, the situation was unclear, and Jason couldn't confirm the danger.

And now?

No need.

The old monk of Tong Shouji Temple and the man behind the scenes appeared one after another, making everything clear.

'Fear' of the flag or something, Jason doesn't care.

It's in the same camp or something, Jason doesn't care.

What he cares about is the taste of 'Oni no River'.

And the next moment, he tasted-

Thump!

Jason jumped straight into the 'Oni no River'.

Instantly, cold entrance.

It's completely cold and the heart is flying.

The sweetness and bubbly taste made Jason's eyes light up.

It's a pity it's not sour plum soup.

Jason thought so, but immediately threw himself into 'drinking'.

Grilled meat and sour plum soup go well together.

But Sprite is not bad, either.

The water in the fat house is also great.

The most important thing is to be able to 'drink'!

Don't forget the original essence because of your choice.

You know, children make choices.

Adults want it all.

If not, then hold on to what's in front of you.

Jason is like that.

Woo!

He opened his mouth suddenly, and at the bottom of this 'Ghost River', Jason, who did not hide it anymore, opened his mouth to drive the flow of the surrounding water, and an invisible suction force emanated from that throat.

Call!

The surrounding water immediately formed a vortex and passed through his throat into Jason's stomach.

"Jason!"

The moment Jason jumped into the 'Ghost River', Hui Lijing exclaimed.

Then, I wanted to jump in and save people.

"Calm down!"

"Jason is not a man without purpose!"

Ryosuke grabbed Hui Lijing's shoulder, but the difference in strength was a bit much, and the whole person was taken by Hui Lijing and fell to the board, just hitting the injured arm.

Hiss!

Ryosuke gasped.

It was both because of the pain and because of the surprise of Hui Lijing's strength.

How can a woman have so much strength?

Even if you grow tall, shouldn't you?

Don't...... Is it a youkai?

Are there women, tall yokai?

Ryosuke was stunned for a moment, thinking completely subconsciously.

The environment he was in and the experience he had just experienced made this middle-aged criminal policeman's way of thinking unconsciously crooked.

"Officer Ryosuke, are you alright?"

Hui Lijing helped the other party up.

"It's fine."

"Lady Hui Lijing, are you an eight-foot adult?"

Ryosuke asked subconsciously.

There are a lot of tall and powerful monsters, but with the addition of a female prefix, there are not many such monsters, and the most familiar one is 'Eight Feet Adult'.

"Do you know the smell of cow dung?"

Hui Lijing asked with an unkind face.

Ryosuke: ???

What is the problem?

Monster Q&A?

If you answer incorrectly, will you be eaten?

Ryosuke fell into hesitation for a moment.

At this time, Hui Lijing threw Ryosuke onto the board, raised her head to look at the dim sky, and yelled loudly, "You guy with a hidden head and tail come out for me?" ”

"Huh."

A contemptuous sneer in response.

Bang bang bang!

Enraged, Hui Lijing took out her gun and began to shoot at the sky.

Natural, useless.

On the contrary, it also made the river that had just calmed down roll again.

One by one, the dark green 'water ghosts' rushed towards the boat again.

Hui Lijing and Ryosuke immediately fought back.

The old monk of Tong Shouji Temple stood in place with his hands folded.

It's not that he doesn't want to help.

It's really not helpful.

In addition to the 'stand-in hair' and 'boat crossing technique', there are only two or three secret techniques that he is good at, and none of them can cope with the current situation.

Once it is used, not only will it not help, but it will directly puncture his disguise.

Let that earth gate attack completely.

And then?

Naturally, it goes without saying.

It is a great blessing to be able to die happily.

It is more likely that life is worse than death.

Thinking of this, the expression of the old monk of Tongshou Temple became more and more calm and peaceful.

Since it's useless to be anxious, it's better to wait and see.

Maybe......

Maybe a miracle will happen.

"Tong Shouji, aren't you going to make a move?"

Just as the old monk of Tongshou Temple was standing there safely, waiting quietly, the voice of the earth gate in the sky sounded again.

In the 'time of the demons' created by this Tuyumen with the help of Tianshi, he could clearly see the calm and peaceful expression of the old monk of Tongshou Temple, which made this Tuyumen more and more vigilant in his heart.

The strength of the old monk of Tongshou Temple is stronger than him, it is certain.

Even with the help of 'the time of the devil' and the bait, the old monk of Tongshou Temple was suppressed, and if the two really fought each other, the victory or defeat would only be five or five.

Therefore, he definitely does not want to do it until the last resort.

What he wants to do is to overwhelm people with power!

threaten the old monk of Tong Shouji Temple with the lives of Jason, Hui Lijing, and Ryosuke.

Although I don't understand why the old monk of Tong Shou Temple cares about the lives of a few ordinary people, this is a rare and valuable opportunity for him.

Thinking of this, this earth royal gate spoke.

"Although this is only a projection of the 'Oni no River' branch."

"But when ordinary people enter here, they have to be dissolved into skeletons between breaths, and then, the spirit becomes the nourishment of the water ghosts in it - this Jason is very good, the training of those exorcists seems to be quite effective, and he is not dead yet."

"But that's only temporary."

"Final...... He's going to die, too. ”

"Are you going to watch him die?"

"Or are you going to save him yourself?"

This Tuyumen oppressed the old He of Tongshou Temple with words.

Jason's life or death, this earth gate will not care.

What he really cared about was what the old monk of Tong Shouji Temple would do.

If the old monk of Tong Shouji Temple really chose to jump into the 'Ghost River' to save people, it would really be ...... It couldn't be better!

With the containment of the 'Ghost River', even if he wants to do it, he has more certainty.

"Origin and extinction are in an instant."

The old monk of Tongshou Temple clasped his hands together and saluted slightly.

He wanted to say something else, but he didn't know what to say at this time.

can only deal with the words of the real old monk of Tongshou Temple when he was dying.

In fact, when he didn't know what to say, the old monk of Tong Shouji always did it.

And every time, the effect is very good.

With the help of the power of the 'Yin and Yang Technique', this Tuyumen looked at the old monk of Tong Shou Temple with a peaceful face saying such words, and felt inexplicably nervous in his heart.

If it were a different scene, he would definitely not be like this.

But he obviously tried his best to arrange it.

The other party really fell into the trap.

But the other party's An Ran look made him feel as if he had fallen into a trap.

Don't......

Did I really fall into the trap?

Impossible!

I'm in control!

Tong Shouji is just bluffing!

"The old monk of Tongshou Temple, I ...... it"

When the earth gate was about to say something, his voice stopped abruptly.

He stared at the 'Oni River' with wide eyes.

In fact, it's not just this Tu Mimon, but also Hui Lijing and Ryosuke.

They've finally figured out something is wrong!

Vortex!

A whirlpool has appeared on the shore!

It's not a normal undercurrent in the water, and the whole vortex is like a 'tornado', but it's not on the surface of the water, but down the surface of the water, as if the plug of the bathtub has been pulled out, forming a vortex.

But this whirlpool is much more terrifying than the whirlpool that forms in the bathtub.

What's even more terrifying is that it's still expanding.

Soon, the 'water ghosts' in the 'Ghost River' were affected.

The originally hideous and crazy 'water ghosts', one by one, as if they had encountered natural enemies, let out a wail, away from the whirlpool, but the suction of the whirlpool was too great, relying only on their own paddling, they could not fight at all.

One, two, three......

Soon, hordes of 'water ghosts' were sucked into the whirlpool.

It's like an impatient person drinking bubble tea, at first he uses a straw to suck the pearls one by one, but later, it is too troublesome, so he directly tears off the lid and pours it into his mouth.

In the end, the rumbling sound of the river could not hide the roar full of pleading.

Hui Lijing and Ryosuke stood on the boat and watched this scene blankly.

"Jason made it up?"

Ryosuke asked in a daze.

Although the middle-aged criminal policeman has been persuading Hui Lijing to calm down just now, he is not too optimistic about Jason who took the initiative to jump into the water.

Although he didn't know the peculiarities of the 'Ghost River', the swarming 'water ghosts' were enough for the middle-aged criminal policeman to make the most intuitive judgment.

Unless it is a team of 100 people fully armed, it must be equipped with equipment such as gunboats, otherwise, in the face of such a 'water ghost', it will only end up being reduced to food.

As for why they were able to hold out for so long?

The middle-aged detective knew it quite well.

It's just that the mastermind behind the scenes is taking advantage of the situation in front of him to persecute the master of Tong Shouji beside him.

And if it's true?

Just rely on his and Hui Lijing's two pistols?

I'm afraid I'll have to be torn to shreds in an instant.

However, if Hui Lijing is an 'eight-foot adult', then maybe there is still life.

And he?

Naturally, it was reduced to a meal on a plate.

"Jason, of course."

"Is this the power of an exorcist?"

Hui Lijing's eyes lit up.

She has a pact with Jason, she helps Jason find those strange cases, and Jason teaches her some knowledge of the 'mysterious side'.

Before, Hui Lijing had already felt the power of this knowledge.

But it wasn't as direct as it is now.

Can the whole river be 'drunk'?

What kind of secret art is this?

Or is it some kind of prop?

Hui Lijing guessed.

The female detective didn't believe that Jason had drunk the 'Oni River' in the true sense of the word.

You know, no one has that big stomach.

It's not just Hui Lijing who thinks so, but the old monk of Tongshou Temple and the Tuyumen also think so.

"Did Jason notice the arrangement of this earth gate, so he would have prepared in advance?"

"That's right!"

"Only in this way can we show that this person has been calm from beginning to end."

"It turned out to be prepared!"

The old monk of Tong Shouji couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It's good to come prepared!

At least, he survived again.

Compared with the relief of the old monk of Tongshou Temple, the earth royal gate was annoyed.

"Is it because of Ichiro Aijo's temptation before, exposing me?"

"Did the damn exorcist use divination?"

"The most hateful thing is the old monk of Tong Shou Temple!"

"No wonder he was so calm just now, I was uneasy, it turned out that he had already seen everything and had been waiting for me to enter the game!"

The earth gate gritted his teeth and creaked.

But it's already happening.

What could he do?

It can only be the greatest recovery of losses!

The 'Oni River' must not dry up.

Even the projection of a tributary is one of his biggest hole cards, and the loss is here...... It's not worth it!

Thinking of this, this Tuyumen waved his hand.

Hui Lijing and Ryosuke disappeared.

Jason at the bottom of the river is also gone.

After the old monk of Tongshou Temple folded his hands and bowed, he disappeared with the boat.

The next moment-

The crowd appeared in the courtyard.

In the crisp sound of 'Startling Deer', Hui Lijing and Ryosuke saw the mastermind behind the scenes.

Both were amazed with each other's handsomeness.

And this Tuyumen didn't even look at the two of them, but just looked at the old monk of Tongshou Temple with scrutinizing eyes.

He hadn't forgotten his words.

Eat one's word?

His pride did not allow him to do so.

The agreement can be fulfilled and the other party is the main ...... He was a little unwilling.

The old monk of Tong Shouji Temple looked at this earth gate and instantly guessed the other party's thoughts.

However, at this time, he did not speak.

He knew too well the virtues of these famous families.

At this time, if he opens his mouth to say to the other party that he doesn't need to perform or something, he will definitely be regarded as an insult by the other party and will not die.

But if you take the initiative to fulfill the agreement, you will be regarded as an insult by the other party and continue to die.

Therefore, silence is the best thing to do.

Everything is left to the other party.

However, soon, the old monk of Tong Shouji Temple realized that something was wrong.

The other party's gaze lingered on him for a moment, and then he looked at ...... Jason.

The other man was looking at Jason.

Well?

How do you feel murderous?

The old monk of Tongshou Temple was full of surprise in his heart.

And this Tu Yumen was the most surprised, he not only felt the killing intent, but also felt the unprecedented danger.

How can it be?

How can an exorcist who looks like a lost dog feel this way for me?

There are naturally powerful exorcists.

Not to mention the twelve 'Shine' exorcists.

A few exorcists who have become famous alone deserve his treatment.

But in the thoughts of this earth royal gate, Jason is definitely not included.

Don't......

All I see is an illusion!

Is there a deep truth in everything?

This earth royal gate looked at Jason, a little stunned.

There is one more guess in my heart.

Suddenly, sweat appeared on his forehead.

You know, an old monk of Tong Shou Temple makes him not an opponent.

Plus a hidden exorcist?

He's dead!

What to do?

Calm down!

There must be a solution!

The Earth Gate's brain began to spin rapidly.

And Jason is much simpler!

All he knew was that this guy in front of him had disturbed him to 'drink'!

Then accept and bear his wrath!

Jason was about to do it.

But at this time, the old monk of Tong Shouji Temple walked in front of Jason.

"Good."

"You've passed my test."

"From now on—"

"You are the new Tong Shou Temple, and the 'fear' flag will be handed over to you for safekeeping."

The old monk of Tong Shou Temple said seriously.

Jason was stunned.

And at this moment of stunnedness, the earth gate rushed down the steps and knelt straight in front of Jason, his forehead pressed against the ground-

"Tuyumen Yuan has seen the lord."
