My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 128: Looking at the Sky Dragon

As for the remaining three things, they are not that surprising.

"Exquisite pufferfish toxin (excellent item), a fine and deadly poison refined from dozens of pufferfish livers. It has a strange fragrance. Just one drop is enough to kill dozens of cattle and horses."

Jiang Xinghuo clicked on the text and took a look at it in reality. It looked like a small white jade bottle with a faint green liquid visible inside.

One drop can kill dozens of cattle and horses. If taken by a human, the person would die on the spot.

Jiang Xinghuo opened the magic bag and carefully placed the poison in the wooden house. He closed the magic bag only after making sure that no one except himself could touch it.

"Anti-moth talisman (common item), put it in the closet, even if it is buried underground for a hundred years, as long as the talisman is still there, it will not be eaten by moths."

"Great General's Talisman (Ordinary Item). When the Great General comes here, all evil spirits will retreat. This talisman is specially used to suppress corpses and ward off evil spirits. Stick it on the top of a corpse to prevent the corpse from resurrecting."

After getting these things, Jiang Xinghuo controlled the character to walk around the courtyard again, but no prompts were triggered and the Tathagatagarbha was not activated.

Jiang Xinghuo had no choice but to leave here and explore another yard.

"You have come to the Wang family residence."

"After Wang Er made a fortune, he pretended to be elegant and imitated those high-ranking officials. He hung a weird horizontal plaque on the beam of the outer gate of his house."

"You pushed the door open and walked in. The so-called mansion was just a small narrow courtyard with only two dilapidated houses, a dry well, and a crooked tree struck by lightning. Apart from that, there was nothing else."

"Go to the dry well first and look inside. You'll see a lot of broken limbs piled up inside. It seems that many curious people like you have come here to explore."

Jiang Xinghuo was just about to control the character to explore when the game text suddenly changed and a new message popped up.

"You were attacked by a headless ghost."

"You turned around and looked back, and saw two headless ghosts, one big and one small, standing behind you, holding axes and attacking you."

One big and one small?
Two headless ghosts?

Jiang Xinghuo quickly realized that these two evil ghosts should be Wang Er’s wife and children, whose heads were chopped off by him with a hatchet, so they could not be reincarnated.

"Facing the attack of two evil spirits."

"You didn't panic at all. A ball of lightning flashed in your palm and you used palm thunder to split the two evil spirits apart and sent them to the city of the dead in the underworld."

"You found a bloody hatchet."

“Bloodstained Hatchet (Ordinary Material), a hatchet entangled with strong resentment and yin energy. It is covered with mottled bloodstains and has harvested many explorers’ heads. It is now rusted and corroded and cannot be used. Even when cutting tofu, the blade will curl. It can be used as a material for upgrading props.”

Jiang Xinghuo had no interest in the knife, so he just threw it on the altar and hung it there. Whoever wanted it could take it.

Afterwards, Jiang Xinghuo controlled the character and walked into the dilapidated house.

"You walked into the shabby house on the left. The shabby house is full of decaying dust and has not been cleaned for many years. Do you want to explore the shabby house?"

"You explored the shabby house carefully and found a bloodstained linen bed sheet, a ceramic pillow, a talisman that said "every tree and grass is an enemy", two boxes of rouge infested with maggots, a dried blood stain, a rough hemp rope, and half a dragon and phoenix candle."

"Bloodstained linen bed sheet (common item). It is a bed sheet woven from fine linen. It keeps you warm in winter and cool in summer when you spread it on your bed. It is just stained with blood. If you don't mind, you can continue to use it."

"Ceramic pillow (common item), a blue and white porcelain pillow that can help people fall asleep quickly without nightmares. Wang Er paid a huge sum of money for it, but before he could use it, he cut off his own head." "The Grass and Trees Are All Weapons Talisman (common item), one of the talismans passed down by the old celestial master, can turn grass, trees, and straw into people, but the person cannot move or speak. It can only be considered a relatively advanced illusion."

"Rouge with maggots (common item). Rouge with worms after a long time can be used as a material for refining elixirs, or as a material for upgrading certain special items."

"The dried blood residue (common material) becomes rich in color after being dissolved in water, and is most popular among the masters of painting."

"A rough hemp rope (excellent item), a hanging rope that carries a strong resentment, has the characteristic that if you hang yourself, you will die. As long as the hemp rope is wrapped around your neck, even if it is only for a moment, the person being entangled will die for sure."

"You have the hemp rope around your neck."

"You heard the neck bones crack."

"Your neck was broken."

"You are dead."

Looking at the bright red subtitles on the screen, Jiang Xinghuo was completely dumbfounded. How could he die inexplicably without any warning?

"Do you want to activate the Fall Guy?"

"You used a scapegoat, a cicada escaping from its shell, and a substitute to escape from the clutches of the ghost rope."

"You looked at the scarecrow with its neck strangled into an hourglass shape, and you couldn't help but feel a little scared. A little fire fell on the rope, wanting to burn it completely."

"But the straw rope was not affected at all. No matter how fierce the flames were, there was no sign of burning."

"You just have to give up the idea of ​​destroying it and just throw it into the corner along with the scarecrow."

It was the first time that Jiang Xinghuo encountered such a weird thing. He didn't dare to put it in his pocket, let alone bring it to reality. What if he strangled himself to death?
"Half-burnt dragon and phoenix candle (common item), an item that helps couples live harmoniously. Once it's lit, it will stimulate desire to the maximum extent. Please use it with caution."

That’s all the stuff in the shabby house.

In order to avoid missing out on any treasures.

Jiang Xinghuo controlled the character to walk around the house a few more times. Without any prompts, he left the dilapidated house and returned to the yard.

"You are standing in a narrow courtyard and suddenly notice a large black pottery water jar in the corner of the courtyard. Do you want to go over and take a look?"

"You walked to the big black pottery water tank and looked inside. You saw that the water in the tank was crystal clear without any impurities or dirt. There was also a goldfish swimming in the water."

"This goldfish is completely red, except for a streak of gold on its back. It is nearly half a foot long from head to tail, and is fat and large, with a fan-shaped tail and bulging eyes. Its eyeballs roll upwards, as if it is staring at someone."

"You have triggered the Tathagata's talent."

"You've seen through this goldfish."

"It turns out that this kind of goldfish is called 'Chao Tian Wang'."

“Goldfish in the world can be roughly divided into grass type, egg type, literary type and dragon type. The Chaotianwang is the best among them and belongs to the dragon type. Therefore, it has another name, called "Wangtianlong".

"You have obtained it, Wang Tianlong..."
