Vol 3 Chapter 55: Fight hunger!

　　 A gourd is contained in a square high-walled box made entirely of black lacquered wood.
The whole body presents a reddish-brown color, the size of two adult fists. In the sun, it exudes a soft glow. You don’t need to distinguish carefully. As long as you see this gourd, you can tell the age of this gourd. It is quite long-term.
　　 However, for Jason, the age is not important at all.
　　The important thing is the taste!
　　 The strong ‘food’ taste, he had smelled it before.
　　 When the box is opened, the flavor becomes stronger.
　　 is almost bashing.
　　 is like steamed buns, like the steam that gushes out when the bamboo basket is opened.
　　 is not only hot, but also has the unique flavor of pasta.
　　 However, the gourd in front of me carries the smell of wine.
　　In the strong taste of ‘food’, there is a touch of alcohol.
　　 Although the smell is faint, it is very clear.
　　 Jason frowned slightly.
　　 It's not that he doesn't drink alcohol.
　　 In fact, to some extent, Jason really likes wine.
　　 When I was in my hometown, drinking and drinking Kushimoto was a great event in life.
On the street on a summer night, the sun was completely down, and when the ground was still a little hot, I moved a small table with a friend or two, sat on the side of the road, and shouted to the boss: '10 meat, 10 tendons , 4 large kidneys, roasted eggplant, two beans, and three boxes of snowflakes, iced! Then put together a plate of peanuts and edamame first! ’
　　 This feeling is really wonderful.
　　 It’s so beautiful that Jason can’t even dream of it now.
　　Because he was worried about drinking too much.
　　 Being drunk is not a good thing.
　　 is not only a decrease in reaction ability, confusion, unable to deal with sudden danger.
　　 may also "speak truth after drinking".
　　 Jason has too many secrets.
　　Everything said will cause unpredictable consequences.
　　 Therefore, he really dare not get drunk.
　　 "'Food' smells like alcohol, will you get drunk?"
　　 Jason guessed.
　　 And Huakai Yuanqing on the side is talking about the origin of this gourd.
"This is a gourd made by a craftsman in the early Warring States period imitating a certain great demon's gourd. It seems to be a real gourd, but it is actually made of iron, with a secret method imprinted on it. In addition to being able to hold wine, it can also be known With the enemy’s birth date and the enemy’s blood, it is a rare item to bring the opponent into the gourd, but unfortunately..."
　　 "What a pity?"
　　 The fascinated girl Saakura asked anxiously.
　　 "It's a pity that the method of using this gourd is lost."
　　 "My ancestors tried many methods, but they couldn't start this gourd."
　　 "It becomes a decoration."
　　 Hua Kai Yuanqing spread out his hands and looked helpless.
　　 Sakura's face also showed a pity.
　　 And Jason is a move in his heart.
　　 Listen to this gourd, why is it a bit familiar?
　　 "Can it earn everyone?"
　　 Jason asked.
　　 "Of course it's impossible."
　　 "This is just a fake!"
　　 "The highest storage limit is the ultimate for mortals!"
　　 "However, if the gourd of the great demon should be able to accommodate everyone, right?"
　　 "Of course, these are rumors, and I don't know whether they are true or false."
　　 Huakai Yuanqing said that she laughed.
　　 Although he is a member of the ‘mysterious side’, in the heart of the young onmyoji of the Huakai courtyard family, he is dubious about the legends handed down by the family.
　　Because he knows some family practices too well.
Or……
　　History is written by victors.
　　 Every twenty or thirty years, the books in the family are always re-edited.
　　 The external statement is to organize, modify, and protect.
　　 Actually?
Ha ha.
　　 Therefore, if I really believe in those records, it will really cheat people.
　　 "As I said before, this is my apologize, please accept it."
　　 Huakai Yuanqing took out the gourd and handed it to Jason.
"Ok."
　　 Jason nodded and accepted the gourd.
　　 He has a high probability of certain, the rumors are true.
　　 is only a high probability, the final result?
　　 Jason didn't know.
　　 However, Jason knew that Huakai Yuanqing in front of him was a pretty good collaborator.
　　The cooperation has not yet started in the true sense. He has already obtained the ‘blessing stone’, the ‘arrow of rice and arrow’ and this unknown gourd from the opponent.
　　 Therefore, Jason's view of the young man in front of him has changed considerably.
　　 may have the arrogance of a big family, but people are not stingy, and they do what they say.
　　 And then, Huakai Yuanqing's words will make Jason's favor +1.
　　 "Since all three of our team have gathered."
　　 "Then I will do the job at night, right?"
　　 Huakai Yuanqing asked.
　　 Girl Saakura nodded repeatedly.
　　 There is food, Jason will naturally not object.
　　 "I promised your Excellency Jason two banquets before, and one of them was after everyone gathered. This time there was everyone, and I had booked the venue for the banquet early."
　　 "Your Excellency Jason, do you have anyone you want to bring with Saakura?"
　　 "The banquet hall is very large and can allow many people to attend."
　　 Huakaiyuanqing added.
　　 Miss Sakura subconsciously called her friends all over.
　　 But when she thought that she was going to participate in the'King of Fighting-The King of Fighters Contest', she immediately dismissed the idea.
　　 After all, she signed a non-disclosure agreement: she is not allowed to take the initiative to inform others of the "inside world".
"No."
　　Sakura shook his head regretfully.
　　 "I probably have some friends coming."
　　 Jason said directly.
　　 Whether it is the old monk of Tongshou Temple, Heta, or Hui Lijing, Ryosuke, and Urashima, they are all people who are familiar with the "Inside World", and naturally there is no need to hide it.
"Ok."
　　 "It's 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and I will send someone to pick you up at 6 o'clock."
After 　　 Huakaiyuanqing accurately explained the time, he temporarily left'Tongshou Temple'.
　　 Sakura did not leave.
　　 Compared to Huakai Yuanqing, Saakura girl prefers to stay with Jason.
　　 When Hua Kaiyuanqing left, the old monk Tongshou Temple walked out of the main hall.
　　 "Collect the soul gourd?"
　　 Looking at the gourd in Jason's hand, the old monk Tongshousi was surprised.
　　 "Do you know this?"
　　 Jason threw the gourd in his hand.
　　 "Well, it is recorded that a craftsman imitated the props made by a certain great demon's gourd."
　　 "The gourd is rumored to hide quite a few secrets."
　　 "However, it is just a rumor. After the method of use is lost, it becomes a decoration."
　　 "If it can still be used, it will never appear in the branch of Huakaiyuan."
　　 The old monk said the information he knew, and then turned his head to look at Miss Sakura.
　　 "Hello, I am a monk at Tongshou Temple."
　　 The old monk greeted kindly.
　　 "I am Sakura!"
　　 Ms. Sakura replied carelessly, and then, she seemed to think of the teaching she received on weekdays, facing older people, shouldn't be so rude, and immediately bowed again: "When we meet for the first time, please take care of me."
　　 "Hahaha, it's okay, it's okay."
　　 "You don't need so much courtesy."
　　 "Want to drink tea and snacks?"
　　 "I remember there is in the wing."
　　 Facing the polite child, the old monk of Tongshou Temple was very happy.
　　 "Excuse me."
　　Sakura bowed again.
　　 Jason looked at the two of them, stood up silently, and walked to the left wing.
　　 This is his room in Tongshou Temple.
　　 consumes a lot of satiety.
　　 Now is the time to supplement.
　　 Close the door, and arrange several [Kayafah Seals]. After confirming that all the places for entry and exit are blocked, Jason walked to the bed.
　　Although it is in Tongshou Temple, Jason will not lose the habits he should have.
　　 sat cross-legged on the bed, the first thing Jason took out was the ‘blessing stone’.
　　 After smelling it, he threw it directly into his mouth.
　　 Slightly sweet, but not full-bodied, when the teeth are hardened
　　 Click!
　　 The whole ‘blessing stone’ was split.
　　 Inside is... peanuts?
　　Peanuts wrapped in sweet coats?
　　 It's not peanuts soaked in old vinegar. Although it's a bit weird, it's delicious.

　　 10 o'clock satiety is not much for Jason now.
　　 But this kind of satiety that can be obtained without hunting is more or less an accident for Jason.
　　 Then, Jason picked up the fragments of the'Inawa Arrow'.
　　 is different from the slightly sweetness of "Blessing Stone", the fragments of "Inawa Arrow" are rich in sweetness.
　　 is like a butter ball.
　　 Besides, it's the one that melts in the mouth.
　　 is as sweet as a bite of cream.
　　 "Delicious."
　　 Jason commented from the bottom of his heart.
　　 sweet, always make people happy.
　　 Therefore, people tend to taste sweet unconsciously.
　　 No matter how bitter life is, when sweetness appears, it will dilute the bitterness.
　　 Do you remember the bowl of sugar water your mother made when you were taking medicine when you were a child?
　　 How many people are afraid of getting sick.
　　 But because of this bowl of soup.
　　Illness and pain became less terrible.
　　 Even, there will be some expectations.
　　 Of course it is not illness, but sugar water.
　　 sweet, really wonderful.
　　 And even more wonderful is the text in front of Jason.

　　 Feeling the sweetness still in his mouth, looking at the text prompt in front of him, Jason's mouth curled up.
　　 Then, he picked up the "Soul Gourd".
　　 The food is right in front of my eyes, and the fragrance is getting stronger.
but!
　　The taste of wine became clearer.
　　Although it was mixed with the smell of wine, Jason opened his mouth uncontrollably in the face of the smell of food.
　　He wants to taste the taste of this gourd.
　　 At the same time, dishes such as drunken shrimp came to mind involuntarily.
　　 But there is a voice echoing in my heart.
　　 stop!
can not eat!
　　 Not sure about the result, don't try!
　　 Learn to fight hunger!
　　 Don't be controlled!
　　 This voice comes from Jason's cautious habit.
　　 Or rather...reason!
　　 Reasonably tell Jason again, the danger of doing so.
　　 But the gourd is still getting closer and closer to Jason's mouth.
　　 10 cm, 5 cm, 2 cm.
　　 When Jason's teeth were about to touch the shell of the gourd, Jason stopped.
　　 is not the kind of simple stop.
　　 is trembling.
　　 Jason's body is like pressing a mountain, and holding a mountain in his hand.
　　 Moreover, these two mountains are still magnetic mountains!
　　 The magnetic mountain with opposite positive and negative poles!
　　The great attraction appears on both.
The distance that 　　 had stopped, began to waver again.
　　 Then--
Snapped!
　　 Jason slapped himself with an empty hand.
　　 Slap is crisp and loud.
　　 But, it was useless at all.
　　 Jason still wants to eat.
　　 And... and sticking out his tongue!
　　 The gourd is not far from Jason's mouth.
　　 When the tongue sticks out, it can naturally touch the gourd.
　　 Once you taste the taste of gourd...
　　 Jason's only remaining sanity made Jason understand what the result was.
　　 Maybe he will have a big meal.
　　 But it is more likely that he fell to the ground drunk.
　　 Of course, this is the best result.
the worst?
　　 is naturally "speaking truth after drinking".
　　 can't do it!
　　 Such a thing cannot happen!
　　 Telling himself from the bottom of his heart, Jason slammed his chin with his free hand.
　　 There is no room for this push.
　　 After the tooth touches the protruding tongue, it is... bitten off!
　　噗!
　　 Tongue fell on the bed, dripping with blood.
　　 Under the pain of stimulation, Jason's eyes were clear.
　　 He suddenly held the gourd's hand.
　　 But he held the gourd's hand and didn't obey the command at all.
　　 Without hesitation, Jason's free hand was a snap.
　　 Click!
　　 The bones of the wrist broke, and the gourd fell straight on the bed.
　　 Then, looking at this gourd, Jason, who lost his tongue and broke his wrist, was still full of yearning from the bottom of his heart.
　　 咚, 咚, 咚!
　　 With every beating of his heart, Jason's yearning increased by one point.
　　The only remaining reason is expelled.
boom!
　　 Bang Bang Bang!
　　 Jason raised his hand and smashed it against his left chest.
　　 Continuous, non-stop smashing.
　　 hit to bloody.
　　 hit the bone with broken tendons.
　　 hit the heart to shatter.
　　 hit to no life.
　　 Death has come.
　　 Then, life emerged.
　　 After waking up, Jason escaped from the bed like an electric shock, leaning against the door of the room and panting.
　　 Huh! Huh!
　　 Jason seemed to be fished out of the water, the sweat bead dripping to the ground.
　　 Jason at this time is more exhausted than a real life and death battle.
　　 Fighting hunger is never easy.
　　 Jason has a considerable say.
　　 After he awakened from the talent of [Predator], he was fighting hunger almost every moment.
　　 could not resist from the beginning.
　　 can resist slightly after arriving.
　　 If you don't start eating, you can resist most of the time.
　　 What Jason has experienced and paid is absolutely beyond everyone's imagination.
　　 And started eating like just now, can you still resist?
　　 The price paid just now cannot be clearer.
　　 But this is just the beginning.
　　 Jason stood behind the door, and after a full five minutes, Jason calmed down completely.
　　 He approached the bed carefully little by little.
　　 As if there is a huge danger there.
　　 Originally a step away, Jason moved for a full minute.
　　 When he finally got close to the bed, when the throbbing hunger in his heart was about to reappear, Jason returned to the door again and began to gasp for breath.
　　 After ten consecutive times, Jason finally calmed down.
　　 But this is just a simple approach.
　　 When he was able to pick up the gourd, the sky was completely dark.
　　 How many times did you try?
　　 Jason can't remember.
　　 He only knew that he was still successful.
　　 pulled out a rope tied to the gourd~EbookFREE.me~ Jason hung the gourd around his waist, and then pushed out the door.
　　 Huakai Yuanqing outside the door has been waiting for a long time.
　　 Seeing Jason walking out, Huakai Yuanqing stepped forward and asked with a smile: "Your Excellency Jason, has something happened?"
"over slept."
　　 Jason answered casually.
　　 Facing such a perfunctory answer, Huakai Yuanqing did not ask.
　　 He didn't want to ruin the good relationship between the two parties because of some minor details.
　　 "Oh, shall we go then?"
　　 Huakaiyuanqing asked.
"it is good."
　　 Jason nodded.
　　 "Go! Go!"
　　 "Great meal! Great meal!"
　　 The careless Saakura was already cheering.
　　 The old monk of Tongshou Temple, Ryosuke and Urashima who went there together also looked forward to it.
　　 Of course, Hui Lijing has already called to inform.
　　 However, as everyone walked out of Tongshou Temple, a servant of Huakai Yuanqing ran over in a panic.
　　 "It's not good, Master Huakai Yuanqing, your invitation to the'King of Fighting-King of Fighters Contest' has been deprived of!"
