My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 307 White Wolf
"You greeted the other person, but he ignored you, as if he didn't hear you and continued reading his book."

"You continue to greet the other party, but the other party remains indifferent. Do you want to go over and remind it?"

When Jiang Xinghuo saw the text description, he thought it was quite pretentious, so he chose to go over and remind the other party directly to see how the old man would react.

"You walked over and tapped the other person's shoulder. This time the storyteller finally responded."

"It turns out that because of its age, its hearing has been severely degraded and it can hardly hear any sound."

"But it can read lips, and if you talk to it head-on, it can recognize what you're saying."

"But if you say hello to it from behind, it's basically like a deaf person and can't hear anything."

Jiang Xinghuo suddenly realized that it was a problem with his ears. He thought the old man was showing off and trying to extort money from him.

"What do you want to do now?"

"Are you going to directly state your purpose and inquire about the meaning of those totem characters?"

"You should give the Eight-Direction Ear you just obtained to this old storyteller. He is an elder among storytellers. When the Lord of the Secular World was still alive, it had already become famous."

"It is said that it once told stories for the Lord of the Secular World, and won his praise, and he bestowed many good things upon it."

"If you give those eight-sided ears to someone, maybe you will get some unexpected benefits."

"Of course, it is also possible that you get nothing, or just a thank you from the other party."

"What would you choose?"

Two options, give, or refuse.

Jiang Xinghuo thought about it.

The innate effect of the pair of Octagonal Ears bestowed by the Lord of the Mob is not much different from that of the Bagua Ears.

Maybe there are still many shortcomings, and keeping it would just be icing on the cake. It would be better to provide timely assistance, and perhaps you can even gain the other party's gratitude.

"You choose to give the Eight-Ears to the other person."

"You took the rock ears from your trick bag and gave them to the old storyteller."

"When the old storyteller saw this, his cloudy eyes suddenly brightened up, and he recognized the origin of the ears at a glance."

"It tried to find these ears more than once, but the followers of the Lord of Rabble were so numerous and powerful that it had no chance to do anything."

"Now, you have given it this pair of magical ears, allowing it to regain the sharp hearing it had when it was young."

"Your reputation among storytellers has improved."

"Your access privileges to the Golden Chamber collection have been upgraded."

"You have opened the storyteller's niche."

"The Storyteller's Niche is a shop where storytellers conduct internal transactions. There are many rare items in the secular world, which were not originally open to the public. However, in view of your contribution to the storyteller lineage, this shop is specially opened for you."

This was truly a pleasant surprise. Jiang Xinghuo was delighted and took a look around the niche shop. Sure enough, there were many rare items that were hard to find in teahouse niche shops.

What surprised Jiang Xinghuo even more was that he saw the materials needed to cast the Dharma images on the shelves of the storyteller's shop.

"Item: Hundred-year-old Guanyin soil."

"Price: 1000 incense sticks."

"Effects: It can be used to refine some special elixirs, or to make some special foods."

"Features: Difficult to digest." "Introduction: Guanyin soil is difficult to digest, and hundred-year-old Guanyin soil is the best among them. It is said to be the core material for cultivating divine soil."

"Do you want to buy the hundred-year-old Guanyin soil?"

Jiang Xinghuo didn't think twice and immediately paid 1000 incense sticks to buy the century-old Guanyin soil.

"You have obtained the Hundred-Year-Old Guanyin Soil."

Jiang Xinghuo felt very pleased in his heart, good people will be rewarded. Casting the Dharma Image requires a total of six materials, and he has already obtained two of them, plus the rootless water that can be found in the world.

As long as you can find the remaining three things, you can start casting the Dharma image.

Judging from the description in the game text, the Dharma Image is an outward manifestation of the authority of the law. As long as one can successfully forge the Dharma Image, one's own strength will surely be qualitatively improved.

Jiang Xinghuo was daydreaming when a new text popped up on his phone.

"The old storyteller is very grateful for what you have done. He has no way to repay you, so he can only do his best to bless you and pray for you, and at the same time, try his best to help you answer the questions in your heart."

"Do you want to hand it that note?"

"You handed the note to the old storyteller. After seeing the handwriting on it, the old storyteller couldn't help but fall into deep thought, as if he was recalling something."

"Please wait……"

"Still waiting..."

Jiang Xinghuo handed the copied totem text to the storyteller, and then waited quietly for news from the other party.

Ten minutes later, he received a reminder message.

"The old storyteller raised his head, rubbed his eyes, and lamented the passing of time."

"The last time it saw these characters was when it was still young, following its master to the Outer Mongolian grasslands. It saw this kind of totemic characters in an ancient grassland tribe."

"It was a very mysterious nomadic tribe. The deity they worshipped was not Changshengtian, but the 'white wolf' as a totem. They believed they were descendants of the white wolf god."

"And every adult White Wolf has a Snow Wolf that they raised since childhood. They have incredible powers and can control most of the spirits in nature."

“These ancient totemic characters are hard to decipher, even among the White Wolf Clan.”

When Jiang Xinghuo saw this, his heart sank. Few people in his tribe knew him, let alone the old storyteller.

Fortunately, the game text has not ended and is still moving forward.

"At this time, the old storyteller turned around and walked into the house. When he came out, he had a box in his hand."

"The old storyteller handed the box to you, saying it was a gift given to it by the Lord of the Secular World."

"You have obtained the Wensheng Inkstone."

"The Sage's Inkstone (rare item), with a talent as rich as five carts and profound knowledge as vast as the ocean, this inkstone once used by the ancient Sage of Literature has the magical ability to decipher the writings of all races in the world."

"You have triggered the innate effect of the Wensheng Inkstone."

"You look at the piece of paper with the totem text on it again. The ink on it begins to recompile continuously, and soon evolves into text that you can recognize and understand."

It really works!
Jiang Xinghuo raised his eyebrows. When he was exploring the Imperial Examination Hall earlier, he found an inkstone.

The talent effect is the same as this Wensheng Inkstone, both have the ability to decipher various languages.

However, when it came to the words on the walls of the underground palace, it had no effect at all. Perhaps it was because the grade was too low and the effect could not be compared with that of rare quality.
