My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 187: The Treasures of the Coffin
"Searching for treasures after closing the coffin is the rule of tomb raiding. When tomb raiders are robbing tombs, they have many taboos and rules. These are all experiences gained by spending human lives."

"If you follow the rules, you may not survive, but if you don't follow the rules, you will often die."

"It's like when a tomb robber breaks into a tomb, he can take away the burial objects that are displayed openly without any scruples, without worrying about any taboos."

"But if you want to get the burial objects in the coffin, you must follow the rules. First, move the coffin a little, and then let someone reach in and touch it."

"As the saying goes, yin and yang are two different roads. The living cannot see the dead. Once the coffin lid is lifted, it will be the first to be affected. That's why there is the rule of closing the coffin and touching the treasure."

"However, what kind of treasures you can find when you open the coffin depends on your luck. Some people can find rare treasures, while others can only find a pile of rubbish."

"And no matter whether the things you touch are to your liking or not, you can only touch a coffin once, otherwise you will be cursed. At the very least, you will be plagued by all kinds of misfortunes and all kinds of misfortunes. At the worst, the whole family will suffer misfortunes and die a miserable death."

"Later, some quick-witted tomb robbers came up with an idea to make money from a side business, which was to steal the coffins from the mausoleums when robbing the tombs."

"They imitated the gambling stone business of the Huaju, and asked gamblers to buy coffins and open them. If it goes well, they will make a lot of money, and if it goes badly, they will pay for it. The money and goods are paid, and there is no regret."

"Do you want to join in the fun?"

After reading this text description, Jiang Xinghuo thought about it and thought, isn’t this a benefit that comes right to your door?
In this situation, other people may only be able to gamble on their luck. If they are lucky, they can get some treasures. If they are unlucky, they can only consider themselves unlucky and lose everything.

However, his Tathagatagarbha can see through the origin of all things, and those coffins will surely not be able to block the Tathagatagarbha's innate ability.

However, these are just my own guesses. I have to try them to know the specific effects.

"You chose to go over and see the excitement."

"You walked to the front of the crowd and saw an old tomb raider from the northwest."

"In front of it stood a dozen old coffins, of different sizes, shapes, and materials. Some were plain coffins with thin skins, while others were carved with clouds and dragons..."

"Do you want to buy a coffin and try your luck?"

"You have triggered the Tathagata's talent."

"You found a special coffin."

"This coffin is made entirely of cast iron and is covered in rust. The patterns carved on it are no longer clearly visible. However, your Tathagata-garbha can tell that this coffin is extraordinary."

"You want to buy this iron coffin."

"The tomb raiders have been in Guandong for some time. They look familiar to everyone who comes and goes. It's rare for them to see a new face. They think you are a tourist from another place. They roll their eyes and decide to temporarily raise the price, treating you as a fat sheep to be slaughtered."

"Most of the dozen coffins placed here were stolen from ancient tombs. Only this iron coffin of unknown origin was obtained by it from a corpse sewer in a charity cemetery."

"According to the corpse stitcher, this coffin has been there for many years. It has been placed in the charity cemetery since his great-grandfather's generation. It can be considered an ancestral heirloom in their family."

"Although the tomb robbers cannot see through the coffin, they know that it is not an ordinary thing."

"That night, he became greedy and killed the whole family of the corpse-sewer, and brought the coffin to Guandong Castle.

"The tomb robbers do business without any capital, so they can't lose money no matter how much they ask for. Now that they see you have set your sights on this coffin, they want to make a huge profit from you."

"Do you want to spend 100000 incense sticks to buy this coffin?"

Jiang Xinghuo blinked, thinking he had seen it wrong, but when he saw the exact number, he simply chose no.

Are you kidding me? You dare to ask for 10 incense sticks for such a broken coffin? Are you crazy?
"You rejected the price offered by the tomb robber."

"As the saying goes, even if the deal fails, the friendship remains."

"No, the tomb robber saw that you refused his offer and immediately turned hostile to you. He looked at you unkindly and said that you broke his rules by asking for the price but not buying."

"You only have two choices now, either pay for this coffin or leave your life behind!" "What are you going to do next?"

"You see a dozen guys surrounding us, all holding shiny weapons in their hands."

"Will you choose to say nice things and beg them to let you go? Or will you consider yourself unlucky and pay for the coffin? Or will you kill them directly and take all the coffins away?"

Seeing the three options pop up, Jiang Xinghuo lost his patience and thought to himself, okay, don't blame anyone this time. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being too mean and immoral.

You do it on the first day, don't blame others for doing it on the fifteenth.

"Exile, you don't seem to plan to waste any more time here. You opened your magic bag, took out the Broken Army Halberd, and started a killing spree here."

"You killed the tomb raider apprentice, incense +20."

"You killed the tomb raider apprentice, incense +20."

"You killed the tomb raider apprentice, incense +20."

"Incense +20, incense +20, incense +20..."

"You killed it, the tomb raider."

"You have obtained, Incense +1000."

"You opened your magic bag again, collected all the coffins, and hurriedly left the temple before the Guandong patrol arrived."

"You have gained the attention of the Yellow Immortal Ancestor."

"Duration: 6 hours."

"The fluctuations of mana you just emitted have attracted the gaze of the Yellow Immortal Patriarch. You will be hunted down by most of the monsters and demons in Kanto within the next six hours."

屮!
Forget about this!

Jiang Xinghuo slapped his forehead and was so busy killing people that he forgot that the old yellow-skinned man was still staring at him.

After all, you are the leader of the immortal family outside the Great Wall.

Why are you so petty?

It's been so long, but you still haven't forgotten to hunt me down!

While Jiang Xinghuo was complaining, he opened the inventory options, found the Universal Mask, and chose to use it.

"The Mask of All Things (excellent item) can be used to conceal one's own aura and appearance. The forging process is very ancient. After wearing it on your face, you will appear different in everyone's eyes."

"You put on the Universal Mask, which changed your aura and appearance, and evaded the pursuit of several evil spirits."

"Where are you going next?"

"You chose to go to the abandoned Gongyuan."

"You have arrived at the Guandong Imperial Examination Hall."

"You are standing at the gate of the Imperial Examination Hall. The three large flags on the flagpoles have been eroded by wind and rain for a long time and have faded their original colors."

"But you noticed some lights flickering in the Imperial Examination Hall. Do you want to go in and explore?"
