My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 148: Three Pools Mirroring the Moon
At this time, Jiang Xinghuo remembered the background of the game. The Lord of the Secular World fell in the night of dawn, and the golden law that protected all living beings was also broken.

Then the so-called Lord of the secular world must also be a Taoist master, and should be a very powerful Taoist master.

The Golden Rule is the "Tao" that the other party masters.

Jiang Xinghuo flipped through the text records again. From the time he entered the game to now, he has acquired four laws.

Know the laws of the world (0.00001%).

Law of Mercy (0.00005%).

Tidal Law (0.00001%).

Divine Law (0.00005%).

The four laws symbolize four different powers.

He knows all the laws of the world.

The law of compassion saves all living beings.

Tidal laws control the rivers.

The divine law eradicates evil.

Unfortunately, he only dabbled in each law and didn't even have 1% of it, let alone becoming a master.

He now has no way to actively use the power of the law.

Jiang Xinghuo shook his head and stopped thinking about so many useless things. As the saying goes, a bird in the hand is worth a thousand in the bush.

Instead of thinking about unrealistic things, it is better to focus on the present and improve your own strength as much as possible.

"You have come to the private residence of the master of Dashengkui."

"This house is the residence of the master of Dashengkui in the capital. Because he travels outside the Great Wall all year round, the house in the capital is not very big."

"Plus, after the Dawn Night, the eight imperial merchants were liquidated, and all the valuables in the mansion were looted. Only a few dilapidated houses and the large cracked vat in the middle of the yard were left."

"Do you want to explore here?"

"You walked to the broken vat, which was full of stagnant water and duckweed. On the surface of the water, there were three small stone towers covered with moss, casting shadows in the green water, which looked a bit like the Three Pools Mirroring the Moon."

"You have triggered the Tathagata's talent."

"You discovered the Feng Shui Bureau of Three Pools Mirroring the Moon."

"The Three Pools Mirroring the Moon Feng Shui Bureau (excellent formation), a Feng Shui formation of the lineage of geomancers, is one of the ten scenic spots of a home. Placing it in the courtyard can not only increase the auspicious atmosphere in the courtyard, but the lake water in the tank can also absorb the essence of the sun and the moon, becoming a good material for health preservation and healing."

"You used the Xinghe Water Control Technique."

"You cleared out the stagnant water and duckweed in the tank and replaced it with clean, clear lake water."

"Three Pools Mirroring the Moon, triggered."

"You absorbed the essence of the lake water, and the physical strength and magic power you consumed earlier were quickly restored."

"You have obtained the Feng Shui Bureau of Three Pools Mirroring the Moon."

"At this moment, you discover that there is suddenly a carp in the empty water tank."

"This carp is bluish-white in color, and its entire body looks like it was carved from jade. It is nearly a foot long from head to tail, fat and large, with glittering scales. It is swimming slowly in the clear lake water."

"You have triggered the talent of Tathagatagarbha again." "You can see the roots of this carp."

"You have discovered the offspring of Lord Tianlong."

"Lord Tianlong (epic), Lord Tianlong is the sworn brother of Lord Huanghe, and is also the last true dragon recorded in history on earth."

"But few people know that Lord Tianlong's original identity is actually a white carp."

"It and the Yellow River Lord have gone through numerous hardships and dangers. In the depths of the Yellow River, it learned the method of transforming into a dragon. It changed from an inconspicuous carp to a dragon flying in the sky. It helped the Yellow River Lord to pacify the floods in the world and won the respect of all living beings in the world."

"The descendant of Lord Tianlong (excellent). This carp contains Lord Tianlong's blood. Although it is very weak, that trace of true dragon blood is the core of the entire Three Pools Mirroring the Moon Feng Shui Bureau."

Jiang Xinghuo didn't expect that an inconspicuous carp would have such a great origin and was actually a descendant of the Tianlong bloodline.

"You walked into the study of the master of Dashengkui."

"According to the records in the mysterious letter, Dashengkui's treasure is under the study. You followed the records in the letter and found the mechanism leading to the secret room. Soon you came to the place where the treasure was stored."

"You found more than a dozen boxes of gold, silver and jewelry, but to your surprise, there was nothing else in the secret room except those gold, silver and treasures."

"You have carefully explored the secret room and found an inconspicuous mahogany box. Do you want to open it?"

"You opened the mahogany box and found several things."

"A Xun, a Dragon-controlling Arrow, a map of Longhe Village, and a token of Dashengkui.

"I'd like to borrow the Taoist Xun (a rare item). The master of Dashengkui asked the shaman outside the Great Wall to refine a magical instrument. When the caravan is on the road and encounters towering mountains, rivers, lakes or seas, they can blow this Xun, and all living things will make way for it."

"Dragon-controlling Arrow (rare item), a whistling arrow made of dragon blood wood. It can emit a sound like a dragon's roar, resonating with the mountains, rivers and all things, turning them into dragons and sweeping across the enemy formation."

"Longhe Village Map (Ordinary Item). This village is located in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River. The owner of Dashengkui buried most of his treasures in that village."

"If the descendants only want to live a peaceful life, the treasures hidden in the secret room are enough to make them live in peace and happiness for three generations."

“If future generations want to recreate the glory of Dashengkui, then they should go to Longhe Village to look for what it left behind. As long as they can find those things, they will have the opportunity to reopen the trade route and rebuild Dashengkui’s former glory.”

"Da Shengkui's token (common item), a symbol of identity for Da Shengkui's descendants. With this token, one can enter Longhe Village."

Jiang Xinghuo put away a few things. He thought he could find some good things here, but he didn't expect it to be just a preparatory task. He would have to go to Longhe Village for the follow-up task.

It seems that this task cannot be completed in a short period of time. Just as Jiang Xinghuo was thinking about this, the game text changed again.

"You hid in the private residence of the master of Dashengkui, and thought you would be safe, but you didn't expect that the monsters chasing you also had masters who were proficient in numerology."

"They've already caught up with us."

"You are under siege by more than a dozen earth-walking immortals."

"Earth-walking Immortal (excellent), born from the earth, a natural scout, born knowing the art of earth-walking, and with an unusually keen sense of smell."

"Although you have used drugs to cover up your scent, it still can't hide it from the noses of those earth-walking immortals."

"You were outnumbered and were eaten by a dozen earth-walking immortals. You are dead."

"Are you going to use a scapegoat?"

Jiang Xinghuo directly chose no. The Taoist master's watch over him would last for 24 hours. Even if he was resurrected immediately, he would not be able to escape the siege of those monsters.

In this case, it is better to let nature take its course and die as little as possible. Otherwise, it would be a waste of those resurrection items.
