My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 21 Fuchun Teahouse
"You came to Fuchun Teahouse."

"The Fuchun Teahouse was originally the Fuchun Flower Society in Jiangnan, and was backed by the richest salt merchants in Jiangnan. They once existed in every city. As long as there are people, there is a Fuchun Teahouse."

"After the Dawn Night, the Fuchun Flower Society was destroyed in the war. The descendants of the salt merchants managed to escape and rebuilt the Fuchun Teahouse."

"The original Fuchun Flower Club only received people of status, but now there are no rules. It is said that everyone who comes is a guest. People from all walks of life can enter freely, even you who are cursed with exile."

“Here, you can hear stories from any corner of the secular world, and you can also meet many like-minded people.”

"If you are willing to spend some money here."

"The niches in Fuchun Teahouse will also be open to you."

"Do you want to spend 300 incense sticks to open the niche shop of Fuchun Tea House?"

Wow, my goodness, I have to pay a membership fee before entering, right?

Jiang Xinghuo shook his head and chose yes.

"You have consumed 300 incense sticks."

"You opened the niche shop of Fuchun Teahouse."

"Please choose your new name. Please note that you can only choose a name once and cannot change it after choosing it. This will also be the name that you will be known and praised by the world in the future."

An input field appears on the screen.

Jiang Xinghuo realized that he had not given himself a name after entering the game. So what was his current name? Passerby A, B, C, D? Or just a player with a serial number?
"What should I call you..."

Jiang Xinghuo thought for a moment and finally entered "Anonymous".

This was not a name he picked randomly, but a name he chose specifically based on the ability of the "Divine Talisman for Eliminating Traces of Cause and Effect".

Because in this game, every player will obtain a relic and corresponding different abilities, just like Lin Tianshou's 'Wu Dun' and Zhang Congcong's 'Mountain God'.

The relic he obtained was called "Tathagatagarbha", and his innate ability was to see through the origin of all things. Possessing this innate ability meant that there would be no secrets in front of him. Once it was made public, it would probably cause fear among many people.

Just like Zhi Shilang back then, he knew all the laws of Zhi Shi, but in the end he could only escape to the underworld like a stray dog ​​and live a miserable life.

The lessons of the past should serve as a guide for the future.

He then took the name Anonymous. If anyone asked about his relics, he would say it was Anonymous. His innate ability was to block all means of deduction. Although it was rare, it would not arouse jealousy.

"You have been given a unique name - Anonymous."

"Anonymous, the niche shop of Fuchun Teahouse is now open to you. You can choose the items you like here, or you can hang the props, equipment, and skill books you don't need on the niche shop platform and use incense as currency to trade with each other."

Seeing this line of text, Jiang Xinghuo's eyes lit up. It turned out that items in the niche shop could not only be purchased, but also sold. In that case, he had a lot of things to sell.

In the quest line of the Sky Rat, when he went to the Funeral Street, he discovered several props in the coffin shop.

Jiang Xinghuo hung these items up, and soon the niche shop gave the corresponding incense points. The longevity pillow and the eternal lamp were both ordinary props, and the niche shop only gave a price of 150 incense points.

The Seven-Star Coffin Nail is a high-quality item, and its price is slightly higher, which is 300 incense sticks.

Jiang Xinghuo looked at the mountain god's hunting knife again. It was a rare piece of equipment. If he put it up for sale, he would surely be able to sell it for a good price. However, that would expose his identity, which would be a loss.

After thinking about it, Jiang Xinghuo put up the prescription of "Xiaotaixidan" and the secret book of "Flying Dragon Exploring the Clouds".

He had been blessed by the river god and had the ability to move freely underwater. The Xiaotaixi Pill was of no use to him, not to mention it was just a prescription. He was not sure whether he could find the wandering body of the King of Medicine and refine it. Keeping it would be useless.

There is also the secret book of "Flying Dragon Exploring the Clouds", which is not a unique prop. The Mountain God can get this skill book, and others can also get this skill book. Anyway, he has already learned the things in it, so it is better to sell it for some money.

"You walked into the lobby of Fuchun Teahouse, and you saw many compatriots resting here. The storyteller was talking on the stage, and the audience was cheering enthusiastically. Since you are here, you have to show your support even if you don't have to spend money."

"So, you came to Fuchun Teahouse today to show your support for money? Or to show your support for others?"

Looking at the detailed introduction given, Jiang Xinghuo thought about it. To put it bluntly, coming to the show is just freeloading. You can rest here or gather information here, but whether the information is true or false depends entirely on luck. It may be true or false.

If you pay, the situation will be different. The storyteller can tell you information about other exiles, as well as folk legends from various places.

"You chose to support the event with money, and spent 20 incense sticks."

"The storyteller thanks you for your support and decides to tell you some of the information he knows."

"In the city of Beiping, there is an exile named Shan Shen Ye who wants to find someone. He has a special equipment - Shan Shen Ye's hunting knife. If anyone finds his whereabouts, they can chat with him privately."

Jiang Xinghuo thought that he was lucky and had a good start. The first piece of news was about his own value. He continued to read on.

"On the Lujiang River in the south of the Yangtze River, there is an exile named Feng Liuke who wants to find his compatriots to explore the Ghost Square Opera Boat together. He requires the right to move freely underwater."

"In the Greater Khingan Range in Kanto, there is an exile who wants to find his compatriots to explore the underground palace deep in the Greater Khingan Range together. Don't come if you're weak."

"In the Hundred Thousand Mountains, there is an exiled Great Thunder God who wants to find his compatriots to fight against the Luofu Mountain God together."

"In the northwest mining city, there is an exile Tufuzi who wants to find compatriots to explore an ancient tomb of the previous dynasty together. There are many traps inside, and those who are good at traps will be given priority."

"Anonymous, if you are willing to participate in these events, you can spend 20 incense points to let the storyteller convey your wishes. If the other party agrees, you can be directly teleported to the corresponding location."

"Of course, you can also spend 100 incense points to publish relevant event information and call on other compatriots to help you."

Jiang Xinghuo understood that Fuchun Teahouse was a place for teams to play dungeons, and it could open up new maps. With the consent of both parties, they could directly teleport to the new map and start new exploration missions.

"Anonymous, you spent 100 incense points."

"Your information has been published."

"In Longcheng, Beiyang, there is an exile, Anonymous, who wants to find compatriots to jointly defeat the local ghost and god, the Yellow-skinned Fairy. If you are interested, please chat privately."
