My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 249: The Herb Boy
Seeing this, Jiang Xinghuo shook his head and thought that he had underestimated Gui Yunzi. He thought that it was crazy enough that he used seven or eight-year-old children to practice evil magic.

I never thought that it would use its newborn baby as medicine to make elixirs. It is not unfair to kill it.

Jiang Xinghuo put away the bottle of longevity pill. He didn't plan to take it himself, nor did he plan to sell it to others.

Just stuff it into the magic bag and never see the light of day.

Jiang Xinghuo put away the longevity pill and turned to look at the other things. Judging from the names of the remaining things, there should be no problem.

"Seven-star Master's Sword (Excellent Item), a master's sword forged with copper by a Maoshan master. It has the Big Dipper engraved on it and twelve copper coins hanging below it. It has the effect of dispelling evil spirits."

"Duangong ritual: Water and Fire Refining and Ferrying (excellent technique), the method of the Maoshan Duangong lineage to bring back the dead souls, using the heart qi as fire to burn away the dead souls' karma in their lifetime, and using the kidney qi as water to wash away the sins of the dead souls, hence the name Water and Fire Refining and Ferrying."

"Do you want to practice this Taoist ritual?"

Jiang Xinghuo didn't think much about it. As the saying goes, it's always good to have many skills, as you never know when they may come in handy.

"You have learned the Water and Fire Refining Method."

The moment the game text flashed by, a large number of unfamiliar memories instantly flooded into the depths of my mind, all of which were the specific steps of the ritual.

Jiang Xinghuo closed his eyes slightly, his mind working rapidly, and he soon digested and absorbed all the contents, making them his own.

"The Great Seal of the Yellow Sky (common item), a magical tool circulated in the great secular sect of the Taiping Dao, can summon the gods of the Yellow Sky of Liujia, exorcise demons, cure illnesses and save lives, and is incapable of anything."

"However, in order to activate this Yellow Heaven Seal, one must have the Six Jia Heavenly Scriptures of the Taiping Dao as a basis."

Jiang Xinghuo raised his eyebrows. There is a prerequisite. It seems that he cannot use this prop. He can only sell it to others in exchange for incense money, or find the Liujia Tianjing.

However, Jiang Xinghuo really didn't dare to take the initiative to approach these religious forces in the folk world.

The White Lotus Sect's "White Lotus Miraculous Dharma Heavenly Flower Sutra" states that practitioners will become puppets of the Mother of No Birth.

After practicing the Jade Maiden's magic of the Maoshan Sect, one will be entrusted with one's life and property to the ancestors of the Maoshan Sect.

I don’t know what kind of trouble the Liujia Tianjing of the Taiping Dao will have, so it’s better to stay away from it.

"Ghost torture stick (excellent item), a magical tool commonly used by Taoists, made of jujube or peach wood, with the best quality being the one struck by lightning, which has a critical effect on demons and evil spirits."

"Water Mirror Round Light Technique (Excellent Technique), a technique recorded in the Jade Girl Joy Divine Technique, can spy on every place within a hundred meters and present the corresponding picture."

"The scope of the spying increases as the mana cultivation increases. The upper limit is that it can spy on an area of ​​100 miles in radius."

"However, if the person being spied on is sensitive, he or she may discover that you are spying on him or her in secret, and he or she may be retaliated against."

After seeing the description in the game text, Jiang Xinghuo thought to himself, isn’t this a hidden surveillance camera?
The entire scene within a radius of 100 meters is within his sight, and no movement can be hidden from him.

"You have learned the method of water mirror round light."

The secret of casting spells quickly appeared in his mind.

Jiang Xinghuo stretched out his hands, and a transparent round water mirror appeared between his hands. The scenes in the neighboring shops all appeared in the mirror, and it was a Blu-ray ultra-high-definition version.

Fortunately, he is not a paparazzi, otherwise all the negative information about all the stars would be hidden from his eyes.

Jiang Xinghuo was quite satisfied with the things he got from the box of items. At least they were all props and spells that he could use.

Next, Jiang Xinghuo controlled the game character and explored the secret room again, wanting to see if there was anything he had missed.

"You continue to explore the secret room and find another piece of blood written in the cracks between the blue bricks in the corner of the wall."

"If you open it and take a closer look, you will find that the contents of the blood letter are actually the contract signed between Gui Yunzi and Baicao Tongzi."

"Gui Yunzi used the souls of those innocent children to practice the Seven Evils Soul-Gathering Technique, and gave their internal organs to the Herb Boy at the Ghost Market Medicine House." "The Herb Boy will refine those internal organs into medicine, and then the two of them will split it in half, each taking what they need."

Jiang Xinghuo understood that this boy with hundreds of herbs should be the pharmacist who refined the longevity elixir.

"You have triggered a hidden mission, The Sorrow of the Grasses."

"The Herb Boy used children as medicine to make pills. This is a sin that cannot be repaid. If you can kill him, you will get a corresponding reward."

"Of course, you can also choose to protect the Herb Boy and prevent it from being killed by others. Naturally, you will also be thanked by the Herb Boy."

One mission, two results.

How to choose.

It all depends on Jiang Xinghuo's own wishes.

The game does not force him to make any choice.

"The Herb Boy is in the Medicine God's House west of the Ghost Market. You can go there to complete the task at any time. It's up to you what you choose."

Jiang Xinghuo found all the things and there was no point in staying any longer, so he controlled the game character and left the secret room.

Afterwards, he walked around the yard again and found some waste and garbage. Jiang Xinghuo simply threw them all away to avoid them taking up space in the magic bag.

"You left Gui Yunzi's residence and came to the streets of the ghost market. What are you going to do next?"

"Would you choose to go to Yaoshenlu to find Baicao Tongzi? Or would you choose to go shopping at the ghost market?"

"You chose to hang out at the ghost market."

"You met a blind fortune teller, who said that you would have a bloody disaster today. If you give him 1000 sticks of incense, he will perform a ritual to help you break the disaster."

"You ignored it and kept walking forward."

"You met another Taoist Wu Liu."

"Master Wu Liu, this is a branch of the Taoist sect. In addition to practicing Taoist techniques, they also practice a different method, such as going out to collect ponds or summoning gods to drive away corpses..."

"The Taoist Wu Liu in front of you is practicing the art of riding a horse. There are also some props and magic tools on the stall in front of him."

"Look carefully and you will find a Wenwang drum, a whip, the three great treasures of the Guanwai Immortal Family, and the flags that summon the Wuchang soldiers and horses."

"The Taoist Wu Liu saw you stop and warmly invited you to come over and talk in detail."

"Do you want to go over and take a closer look?"

Two options, go or leave.

Jiang Xinghuo thought about it and decided that since he had nothing to do, he might as well go over and take a look to see what they were.

If it is useful to you, just buy it.

"You chose to come closer."

"The Taoist Wu Liu enthusiastically introduced the origins and functions of these magic tools to you..."
