My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 4: Thousand Gold Dragon King Post

"what's the situation?"

Jiang Xinghuo was stunned for a moment, then he looked up at the sky, the pupil of his right eye flickered, and his eyes emerged, and he soon understood the secret behind the fire.

"Qi Men Wu Dun (legendary relic), Five Elements Great Dun, Qi Men True Teaching, can control the flow of the five elements and control the changes of elements."

These text descriptions are not from the game, but the information that emerged in the small pupil of the right eye after the integration of Tathagatagarbha.

Jiang Xinghuo instantly realized that there were also players in the fire scene, and that the other party was very powerful. The relic he possessed was called "Qi Men Wu Dun", which could manipulate the changes of the five elements and directly suppressed the fire in the scene.

Looking at the wounded rescued from the fire by firefighters and the fire in the department store being gradually under control, he breathed a sigh of relief and watched the excitement for a while. He only went home after the fire was completely extinguished.

The next day, Jiang Xinghuo got up very early. He did not rush to open the game, but read the news first.

Just as he thought, the top search on all major lists was about the fire in the commercial street last night. Fortunately, it did not cause a large number of casualties, and the few injuries were only minor.

As for the cause of the fire, it is still unclear. The relevant departments have begun investigating. The department store was severely damaged and it will take at least half a year to reopen.

After reading the news, Jiang Xinghuo made himself a cup of coffee and then leisurely started the game.

"In the early morning, all things awaken from their slumber, and the earth ushers in another beautiful day full of hope."

"After an eight-hour journey, you are standing at the gate of Dragon City again. Looking at the people coming and going, you feel deeply moved. This time, will you choose to enter the city again, or take a detour and leave to find a safer town to stay in?"

Jiang Xinghuo was not vague and chose to go into the city directly. Since he was already here, why would he give up halfway? Besides, other places might not be better than Longcheng.

According to the background setting of the game, the player is an exile carrying a curse and is not accepted by this world.

That means that no matter where he goes, he will be maliciously targeted. In this case, he might as well go all the way and specifically go to places with a high event triggering rate.

"You walked into Dragon City, and saw the bustling scene. Where do you choose to go this time?"

A lot of options popped up on the screen again, but Jiang Xinghuo noticed that this time there was an additional place called "Yan Family Martial Arts School".

"You chose to go to the Yan Family Martial Arts School."

"You followed the address described by the owner of the martial arts hall and found the location of the Yan Family Martial Arts Hall in Longcheng. The location of this martial arts hall is located in the most conspicuous place on the martial arts hall street. But now the front of the martial arts hall is deserted and the vermilion gate is tightly closed."

"You went up and knocked on the door, and a voice responded from inside."

"You explained your purpose truthfully, and the people inside immediately opened the door. The son of the martial arts master came out, and you told him where the secret book was hidden."

"After a while, the owner's son appeared again and thanked you profusely, saying that you are the great benefactor of the martial arts school. Since his father's death, the martial arts school has become less powerful than before and has been targeted by other martial arts schools. If there is no strong person to take charge, the whole school will be wiped out in the end."

"Now that you have told him where the secret book is hidden, he can support this martial arts school. You are the benefactor of the entire martial arts school. He has no way to repay you, so he can only give you a prescription passed down from his ancestors as a thank you gift."

"You have obtained the recipe for the Xiaotaixi Pill."

Jiang Xinghuo was a little surprised. He didn't expect to have an unexpected gain.

"The Xiaotaixi Pill is a pill recorded in the "Miaoying Qianjin Dragon King Post". It is said that after taking it, it can allow mortals who cannot swim to breathe freely underwater. Even if it takes seven days and seven nights, they will not drown in water."

"Miao Ying Qianjin Dragon King Sticker?"

Seeing the exaggerated text, Jiang Xinghuo curiously clicked on it, and the text about "Miaoying Qianjin Dragon King Post" popped up. "Miaoying Qianjin Dragon King Post, in ancient times, there was a medicine king on earth, who dedicated his life to curing diseases and saving lives. Legend has it that he once received forty-three prescriptions from the Dragon King of Jingyang Water Palace, thirty of which were circulated in the world and were called Qianjin Prescriptions by later generations."

"The remaining thirteen prescriptions contained incredible powers of ghosts and gods and were not suitable for being circulated in the world, so they were hidden by him. The Xiaotaixi Pill was one of the pills recorded in the prescriptions."

"You can go look for the wandering bodies of the Medicine King. Not only do they possess the Medicine King's medical skills, they also have superb alchemy skills and can successfully refine the Xiaotaixi Pill for you."

"But they are obsessed with the process of refining elixirs, so they don't have a fixed residence and have been wandering in the secular world. Whether you can find them depends on your luck."

Jiang Xinghuo shook his head, put away the prescription with some regret, and continued playing the game.

"You left the martial arts hall street."

"You walked into a remote alley with no one around."

"Two junkies jumped out and stopped you."

"You look and see that it's someone you know. It's the one who cut out your heart and dug out your eyes last time and took your kidneys to buy opium paste."

"Addicts, the lowest group on this land, are all addicted to drugs without exception after taking them."

"In order to buy opium, they not only spent all their wealth, sacrificed their wives and children, but also cut off their own limbs, organs, and blood to buy happiness and longevity. If their own was not enough, they would get others'."

"Therefore, they have become the lowest and most despicable beings in this world, and are despised by everyone."

"They want to repeat their old tricks and use you as a commodity to exchange for opium paste."

"But they didn't expect that you are different now. You are no longer the little loser who can be easily bullied."

"You clenched your fists and fought them. After a hard fight, you relied on the defensive ability of your iron vest and finally defeated these two terminally ill drug addicts."

"You shot these two addicts."

"You are very excited because you got your first kill in your life. You walk out of the alley refreshed."

"You get the spoils of war, incense +10."

"Incense is a strange substance that exists in the bodies of living beings in the secular world. It contains incredible power. After death, it will automatically overflow from the body. You can collect it and go to the niche shop to buy items that enhance your own power."

Jiang Xinghuo's eyes flickered slightly, and he quickly understood that incense should be the trading currency in this world.

The way to obtain it is to kill the creatures in this world and then get it from their corpses, just like he just killed two sickly smokers and obtained 10 points of incense from them.

As for where the so-called niche is located, he needs to explore it slowly on his own.

"After you killed two drug addicts, you walked out of the alley confidently, like a king expanding his territory. Nothing could stop you."

"Where are you planning to go next?"

"Longcheng Museum, Wong Tai Sin Temple, Police Station, Funeral Street, Baishui River, Teahouse, Pawnshop, Wanghai Lane, Xikai Hutong..."
