Even when someone put a sword on his neck, Jason was not moved at all. He even deliberately moved closer to the sword: "Gabriel, let's make a deal. I will help you practice and you will be at my service. How about that?"

"No big deal," Gabriel had no intention of confronting someone as virtuous as Jason. Seeing that the other party finally explained his intention, Gabriel swung his sword and stood up, "There are many evil spirits more powerful than me. You should seek help from someone else."

Gabriel had also heard that some ghost-catching families would subdue some evil ghosts and use them as their servants, but he did not expect that Jason had the same idea.

Jason’s Taoism skills are not low, he doesn’t need ghost servants to increase his strength.

"There are indeed ghosts more powerful than you, but they are all too dirty, and you are the only clean ghost I have ever seen."

There was a hint of disdain in Jason's eyes, but somehow, Gabriel felt that the disdain in the other party's eyes was not real.

In other words, Jason was using this disgust to cover up another emotion.

Seeing the clear rejection on Gabriel's face, Jason put two fingers together and used the talisman paper to cut a deep wound on his left hand.

The cold fragrance that Gabriel had always been thinking about was no longer vague and confusing. The abundant spiritual energy continued to spread along the blood. Gabriel's throat moved, and he actually felt a little hungry for no reason.

Oliver, who had been avoiding Jason, couldn't help but take a step towards him. Of course, the next second Gabriel bent over and grabbed his neck and lifted him up.

The night wind blew into the living room through a window with a big hole in it. Gabriel could clearly sense the ghosts and goblins nearby ready to make their move.

"Gabriel, you are right. The smell you are interested in is indeed the smell of human flesh," Jason was obviously very satisfied with the effect he had created. "You can kill ghosts when you meet them. Gabriel, you seem to be no exception."

Gabriel quickly threw the tissue on the coffee table to Jason: "Stop the bleeding first, then talk. I don't want my house to be destroyed by a bunch of little ghosts."

"You have great self-control," Jason lowered his eyes and wiped the blood off his hands. Gabriel couldn't see his expression, but he felt that he had avoided something bad. "If I had met other ghosts, they would have pounced on me and were ready to eat me up."

No one knew what tricks Jason used, but the smell in the room became weaker and weaker, and the night returned to peace. Gabriel's frown also relaxed: "They are looking for death."

"Yeah, you're looking for death," Jason repeated in a low voice, then he raised his head and smiled at Gabriel, "We get along so well, are you really not going to consider my proposal?"

"It tastes good, but I'm used to being free and undisciplined. I definitely can't do a job like a ghost servant." Gabriel declined politely. He just wanted to send Jason away and then find something to fill his stomach.

The feeling of being hungry is so uncomfortable.

"I also know that someone with Gabriel's skill would definitely not be willing to be a ghost servant," Jason smiled when he heard some relaxation in Gabriel's words, "We are not master and servant, but cooperation. I will exchange my training, blood, and entertainment resources for your help whenever you call."

After a pause, he added, "The ancestral teachings of the Lou family do not allow the killing of innocent people. You don't have to worry that I will ask you to do anything that will damage your Taoism."

After speaking out of turn, Gabriel actually felt that this condition was worth considering. His current hobbies were cultivation and acting, and Jason's conditions just happened to cover these two aspects that he valued most.

Gabriel’s acting skills are very good, but in this circle, good acting skills do not necessarily mean that you can get good scripts. If Gabriel’s background was a little more powerful, Henry would not dare to replace him if he was not satisfied with the makeup trial.

But Gabriel didn’t understand what Jason wanted him to help with. Jason was definitely capable of catching ghosts by himself. Could it be that the Heavenly Masters had some side jobs that he didn’t know about?

"I want you to help me practice," seeing Gabriel's confusion, Jason readily explained, "The Lou family's highest method must be practiced together with a companion ghost, and I have been stuck at this bottleneck for five years."

He raised his eyebrows and said, "I made a divination half a month ago, and the person who answered the divination was a ghost fairy named Gu, Gabriel. This is our fate."

Gabriel: ... Has this guy played in too many costume dramas? Can he speak properly?

"Then I'm really honored," Gabriel said with a fake smile. He gathered his spiritual energy at his fingertips. "I can agree to the conditions, but I need a contract."

Equality and non-harm to each other, similar to the contract he signed with Oliver, but lacking the function of mental communication. Jason's conditions did make him excited, but after wandering in the world for many years, Gabriel had to be more careful to ensure his own safety.

Gabriel's body is completely made up of spiritual energy, so what is condensed on his fingertips is his purest spiritual energy.

The spiritual energy spread and gathered like smoke, and finally wrapped around Gabriel's white fingertips and condensed into a small "Ping" character. With Jason's keen eyes, he could naturally tell what kind of contract this condition was.

Jason put his fingers to his lips and tapped them lightly with his teeth, causing a new scar to appear on his left hand, which already had a cut.

Jason forced a drop of heart blood to his fingertips. The two of them put their index fingers together, and the rich, pure white spiritual energy and the pure, bright red heart blood merged together without any hindrance.

The blood with a scorching temperature penetrated into Gabriel's body made of spiritual energy. Gabriel's whole body shook, and the spiritual energy surged out uncontrollably.

The hunger that had been making him feel anxious disappeared in an instant. Under the moonlight, Gabriel looked a little unreal, like a banished immortal who could fly away on the wind at any time.

He flexed his fingers in disbelief, having never expected that Jason's blood would be so overbearing.

Compared to Gabriel, Jason's reaction was much calmer. He calmly withdrew his finger and said, "Accompany me to the crew to catch ghosts at midnight tomorrow night. Don't be late."

Gabriel was stunned: "Aren't you here to practice? Why do you still need to catch ghosts?"

Moreover, the time of midnight is too inhumane. You know, ghosts also need sleep, okay?

Jason said naturally: "Catching ghosts is also a part of cultivation. I am the sponsor and I have the final say."

Gabriel was confused: "...Do you have any misunderstanding about the term sponsor?"

"I give you resources, and you practice with me," Jason raised his eyebrows, "Is there anything wrong?"

[Yes, yes, yes.] Seeing the atmosphere ease, Oliver, who was lying in Gabriel's arms, meowed a few times with gloating, [Old Gu, congratulations on achieving a new achievement in the entertainment industry.]

If being kept by someone can be considered an achievement.

"The glass has been fixed." Gabriel pointed at the window that was blowing wind in with annoyance. He threw Oliver onto the sofa and went back to the bedroom without looking back.

He didn't want to pay any attention to either of these two idiots.

Facts have proven that Jason is only suitable for violent demolition, and restoration is not within his skill set.

When Gabriel got up early in the morning and went to open the door for Samuel, the cold wind blowing in from the floor-to-ceiling windows completely dispelled his sleepiness.

Oliver yawned and jumped out of the cat's nest, and handed him a black card.

Gabriel was holding the black card with the password on it, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. Did Jason really think of himself as the financial sponsor?

After completing the task, Oliver walked back to his nest silently. He remembered the little Taoist's behavior yesterday, and he dared to guarantee that the other party was definitely not as straightforward and stupid as he seemed.

It’s just that Jason acted too calmly. Oliver glanced at Gabriel who had a helpless look on his face, but it turned out that Lao Gu didn’t notice anything unusual.

Should it remind him or not? Oliver sighed in a mocking manner, but Jason did not harbor any ill intentions.

People who can act are trouble.

"What's wrong with Oliver?" After listening to Gabriel's explanation about "poor glass quality", Samuel put down his breakfast bag and picked up Oliver. "Why do you look listless?"

Gabriel picked up a piece of hot Shaomai and took a bite: "It was probably blown by the wind, it's nothing serious."

As soon as he finished speaking, Oliver cooperated by making a "meow" sound, as if agreeing with Gabriel's words.

"Old Bai is just a good guy to you." Samuel has been taking care of Gabriel for a whole year, and he has a rough idea of   why Gabriel is special. For example, the glass that broke this morning due to "poor quality" or Old Bai's special spirituality, Samuel would not dig into the details.

As a good agent, Samuel can turn a blind eye to many things as long as his artists can honestly film and keep up with their schedules.

---This is also one of the reasons why Gabriel finally chose Samuel after going through several agents.

"Be good?" Gabriel smiled at Oliver, who was eager to eat steamed buns but had to remain cool on the surface because of Samuel, and finished all the food in the lunch box in just a few bites.

"We'll leave in twenty minutes," Gabriel put down his chopsticks and went to the bathroom, "don't forget to find someone to help me fix the window."

Samuel looked at his watch and then at the lunch box containing ten steamed buns. He felt that Gabriel was a unique and extraordinary person in the entertainment industry.

He took a photo of the lunch box, erased the restaurant information and posted it on his Weibo.

【Samuel Bu Mu V: One box in five minutes, this is your Nai Sheng/Gou Tou. Picture. Jpg. 】

Then, as expected, he waited for rows of comments such as "You won't get fat anyway/funny", mixed with many reminders from real fans such as "Eat more to grow taller" and "Buy more next time, Samuel".

With over a hundred messages in a few minutes, Samuel once again confirmed that it would be a long time before Gabriel was out of fashion. He opened the picture accompanying the fans' message and found that the Gabriel in the picture was actually no different in figure from the Gabriel he saw this morning.

"He really can't gain weight," Samuel muttered to himself as he looked at the photo, "This ancestor's physique is really amazing."

Oliver on the side licked his paw with disdain: Humans are just ignorant. The body made up of spiritual energy will not change at all in a few decades.

But where will they go after decades? Licking his paws, Walter White suddenly thought of this serious question: They won't hide everywhere like the male protagonist in the vampire movie, right?

What's more, Gabriel is an actor by profession.

Oliver put down his paw, looked at Samuel who was holding his phone and laughing foolishly, and sighed again.

Humans are such a nuisance.

Becoming a human is even more troublesome.
