My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 258 Blood Pool

Jiang Xinghuo clicked on the text and took out two talismans. The talisman paper was purple and outlined with cinnabar, emitting a faint red light.

However, the fluctuations of magic power emanating from it were very weak, intermittent, and almost non-existent.

If you are not a person with extremely strong intuitive perception, you may not be able to notice it even if you pass by it.

After playing with it for a while, Jiang Xinghuo wanted to put it away, but he didn't expect that the next game text would give him a big surprise.

"You have triggered the Tathagata's talent."

"Your Tathagata storehouse has seen many rare treasures, has gained extensive knowledge and a strong memory. It has been nourished by spiritual energy, and not only has its level been raised, but its perception ability has also been improved."

"Your Tathagata has the innate ability to see through the origin of all things. Now you may try to analyze the recipes for these two talismans. Do you want to analyze them immediately?"

Jiang Xinghuo was stunned when he saw the sudden text message. He thought that finding these two talismans would be the end of the problem, but he never thought that he could also analyze the recipe for making the talismans.

Then what was there to hesitate about? Jiang Xinghuo directly chose yes, and as he made his choice, the subsequent game text also changed.

"You start analyzing the formulas of these two talismans."

"Analysis in progress..."

"Please wait……"

Jiang Xinghuo waited quietly.

If he could successfully analyze the recipes for these two talismans, could he also study the 'Magic Medicine Gourd' and 'Dog Food'?
Both of these items can restore physical strength and shorten penalty time, but players cannot make them themselves and can only passively search for them on the map.

If I could figure out the recipe, it would be a win-win situation whether I used it myself or auctioned it off.

Soon, the result appeared in the game.

"You have successfully analyzed the formula for making the Tricky Immortal's talisman."

"You have obtained the Tricky Immortal Talisman."

Jiang Xinghuo looked at the production recipe and found it to be very economical and not complicated at all. The raw materials could be found in the real world.

He simply found the cinnabar yellow paper and followed suit, sketching out a few 'blind talismans'.

The vermilion shines on the yellow paper. Although the effect cannot be compared with the purple talisman, it is cheap and affordable, and the raw materials needed can be found everywhere.

Jiang Xinghuo went to the shrine and took a look. A piece of purple talisman paper cost 500 incense sticks, while the higher-grade black talisman paper required 2000 incense sticks.

The highest quality legendary golden talisman paper actually costs 10000 incense sticks per piece, and he doesn't have that much incense sticks to waste.

Afterwards, Jiang Xinghuo took out a piece of dog food from the magic bag, wanting to try to figure out the recipe.

"You analyzed the dog food."

"Analysis in progress..."

"Analysis successful."

"You have obtained the recipe for dog food."

"Dry dog ​​food (crafting recipe), a small steamed cake made from dead person's hair mixed with flour, which can quickly restore physical strength after death."

Jiang Xinghuo went to the niche shop again and found that the raw materials needed were not expensive. He could buy a large amount for 100 incense sticks, which was much more affordable than the finished products.

"Completion of the recipe for making dry dog ​​food (24/24)."

“In the process…”

"You have obtained, Dog Food (12/12)."

Seeing the prompt in the game text, Jiang Xinghuo was delighted. With the recipe for the dog food, he no longer had to worry about physical penalties. Even if he was killed, he could quickly revive next to the shrine.

Compared with other game players, naturally, I have more time to explore the map.

This extra time may not matter in the short term, but as the game time increases, this potential will gradually turn into strength.

The game continues.

"What are you going to do now?"

"Are you planning to quit while you're ahead and leave here as soon as possible before Madam Lu comes back?"

"Let's continue to explore and see what secrets are hidden here. What kind of conspiracy does Madam Lu have?"

"You chose to continue exploring."

"After losing the Tricky Immortal's talisman, the hidden secret room also appeared before your eyes."

"A heavy iron door is embedded in the rockery cave. This is a prison secret room specially built by a master craftsman hired by Madam Lu. Without the key, it is impossible to enter."

"If you use violent means to force the door open, the chamber will collapse on its own, eliminating all external hidden dangers."

Jiang Xinghuo took one look and thought that this was not a problem for him, so he opened his magic bag and found the 'Seven Treasure Key'.

Coincidentally, this Seven Treasures Key can unlock all mechanical kinetic energy locks.

"You put the key into the lock, fiddled with it a few times, and the heavy iron door opened."

"You opened the mechanism and entered the secret passage. The dark space was filled with a pungent smell of blood, which made you sick. In addition, there were many forks in the secret passage, and there were mechanisms and locks everywhere."

"Fortunately, you have five soldiers in your hands. You used them to explore the way ahead. Although it took some time, you found a safe path. After some exploration, you came to the prison at the end of the secret passage."

"You entered this secret prison and found it stinking and full of blood, with bones scattered everywhere."

"Among those bones, a pool of blood was rolling continuously, with countless rotting corpses floating in the blood."

"You discovered the blood pool of Lady Lu."

"This is where Madam Lu usually bathes. I don't know where she got this strange recipe from. It says that if you soak your whole body in blood regularly, you will stay young forever."

"Madam Lu firmly believed in this, and those scattered bones were the husbands that Lu had abandoned after it got tired of playing with them."

"You explored the secret room carefully and found a relatively fresh corpse in the corner."

"Judging from the marks on his body, he must have been drained of blood and died from excessive blood loss."

"Do you want to touch it?"

"You searched the body and found a suicide note written in illegible handwriting."

"You read the suicide note and learned the true identity of the body and its past experiences."

"It was originally a detective from the Shu Police Station. In order to investigate a missing person case, it came to the Ghost Market."

"I don't want to be favored by Madam Lu, so I force it to stay here and become her lover."

"Life is good like this. Madam Lu is very obedient to him and has no second thoughts about taking care of him and his children."

"But it accidentally discovered Madam Lu's secret and found that she had been possessed by someone else at some point."

"The inspector knew his life was in danger, so he wrote down the incident and hid it on his body, hoping that someone would find the suicide note, reveal the identity of Madam Luan in public, and avenge the couple."
