The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 509: Gambling (18)

In the arena, Chigui was already sweating profusely. The punishments he had experienced in Sugoroku had begun to leave more or less marks on his body. His clothes became tattered and full of holes cut by knives.

Scars began to appear on his body. It seemed that even with the body of a monster, he could not completely block the punishment that hell brought to sinners. At this moment, he looked like a destitute beggar, kneeling timidly in front of the chessboard, trembling all over, his eyes fixed on the Sugoroku in front of him.

On the other hand, Ashiya Yoshisuke was still the same as at the beginning, calm and composed. He even had time to take out a folding fan and pretend to fan himself slowly, like an ancient Japanese noble playing Go.

"It's your turn, Akagi." Ashiya Yoshisuke said lightly. Although he did not use any threatening tone or urge, these words fell into Akagi's ears like thunder and scared him.

"Evil ghost! This guy is the real evil ghost!" The red ghost roared in his heart: "Who on earth would make such a cruel thing to gamble with others!"

He already had a kind of mania that made him want to "turn over the chessboard" and not want to play anymore, but because of the oppressive feeling brought by the shadow of Yama behind him, he still stretched out his hand towards the dice like a snail. Anyone could see that his hand was shaking, as if he instinctively wanted to avoid the dice.

"He's definitely going to lose." Liuliyuan Hongming shook his head and said, "The Red Ghost's spirit has been completely crushed. He was clearly ahead of the old man by so many squares thanks to his dice-rolling skills, but he can't make it to the finish line."

Ruriin Yuri leaned on the railing, yawned out of boredom, and said, "Eh? Is that so? In other words, the opponent is too weak, so that Grandpa Ashiya didn't show his strength at all? This is too boring, right? Obviously, that monster looks so intimidating."

From an observer's perspective, this is the fact, especially in the eyes of a newcomer like her. The two people below are nothing more than going back and forth in front of the chessboard, staring at each other waiting for punishment. It is not gorgeous at all. The attraction to Liuliyuan Lily has dropped sharply, and it has slowly lost the initial novelty.

All I can say is that the feeling of playing the [Hell Map] Double Six chess game is probably only experienced by the participants themselves.

"Ha~" Liuliyuan Lily yawned again and said, "According to the development of the comics, there should be some unexpected events now, right?"

Liuliyuan Hongming said with a smile: "How can there be so many surprises? You should just behave yourself..."

Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, the psychics present all felt a powerful pressure appearing on the territory of the casino opposite.

A giant ghost appeared! It fell from the sky like a city gate, hitting the floor of the casino heavily, causing an earthquake.

The moment it landed, the huge ghost opened its mouth and kept breathing air into it. The incident happened so quickly that most of the exorcists didn't have time to react before being sucked to the other side of the casino by the powerful attraction.

"Ah!!! Dad! Save me!" Liuliyuan Lily lost her balance and was sucked over.

Ruriin Hiroaki didn't hesitate at all. He jumped up and grabbed Ruriin Yuri's hand, preventing her from being sucked into the giant ghost's mouth.

"Hold on tight." He slightly adjusted his body posture in mid-air, and then recited the Heart Sutra. A faint halo emanated from his surroundings, as if it was a doldrum. The strong suction suddenly disappeared, and he successfully grabbed his daughter and landed on the ground. The other exorcists were the same. Although they were frightened and caught off guard by the ghost's mouth at first, those who dared to come here basically had their own abilities, so they all stood firm in the strong wind pressure, and no one was sucked into the ghost's mouth.

However, what they did not notice was that a hint of mockery flashed in the giant ghost's eyes, because these exorcists had fallen into the casino, which was his territory.

"Roar!!!" The giant ghost stopped breathing and let out a loud roar. The roaring sound waves swept over and actually broke through the border area between the Yellow Spring House and the casino!
Previously, the territories of the Yellow Springs House and the casino had always been half on each side, with wooden floor and red carpet on the other side. However, with the roar of the giant ghost, the boundary of the Yellow Springs House was completely pushed open, and except for the arena pit in the middle where gambling was still going on, all other places were transformed into the red carpet of the casino.

It was not until this time that most of the exorcists who were sucked in realized the opponent's intentions.

"Here it comes, here it comes..." The red ghost's hand holding the dice was shaking, but this time, he was not afraid, but excited.

The red demon raised his head and looked at Ashiya Jisuke with bloodshot eyes. He gritted his teeth and said excitedly, "It's finally here! I have suffered for so long, just waiting for this moment! Did you see it, old man?"

Ashiya Yoshisuke didn't even raise his eyelids, and continued to fan himself gracefully, oblivious to everything happening around him.

The red ghost shouted excitedly: "Why do you think I played this childish game with you? It's just to drag you down and make you careless! And your arrogance led to your own grave! This double-six chess is very powerful, but it also trapped you here, making it impossible for you to support others! Hahahaha~ You all must die! You, and all of you exorcists, all must die! As a reward for what I did before, I will make your death the most painful! You..."

"Are you done?" Ashiya Yoshisuke said calmly, "It's your turn to roll the dice."

The red ghost was stunned for a moment, then shouted in surprise: "Hey! Old man! Don't you see the current situation clearly? The people you brought here fell into our trap!"

Ashiya Jisuke glanced at him and reminded him, "Your time is almost up, roll the dice."

"Unreasonable!" The red ghost stood up and shouted angrily, but when Yama behind him glared at him, he sat down obediently and started throwing dice.

While the dice were still spinning, the red ghost muttered, "Just bear with it for a little while, a little while... someone will come to save me... Hey! Old man, don't you worry about your companions at all?"

"Just like you believe in your elder brother, I believe in them too." Ashiya Yoshisuke said sarcastically, "Compared to this, I care more about whether our gambling game can continue. It's not easy to play a game with young people, and I haven't had enough fun yet."

As the dice stopped spinning and Yama's verdict was pronounced behind him, the fear that had been suppressed with great difficulty once again crept into the red ghost's heart.
