My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 310 Opening up a new map
"You have obtained the key to the Yellow River Underground Palace."

"The key to the Yellow River Underground Palace (special item). The Yellow River Underground Palace is located at the entrance to the old world ruins. This key is the key to unlocking the entrance seal."

"However, the remains of the old world sank deep underground long ago. It is an extremely dangerous unknown area with countless ominous things and even remnants of the last era. With your current strength, it is not suitable for you to set foot here."

"So it's better for you to wait until you successfully forge the Dharma Image before trying to explore this unknown area."

"The seal of the old world ruins is hidden under the coffin. When your strength increases, you can teleport here at any time to unlock the seal."

Jiang Xinghuo looked at the text prompt in the game and threw the key into the magic bag.

The game text has clearly told me that it is not time to open this map yet. If I forcibly unlock the seal, it will only cause me more troubles and is totally unnecessary.

Anyway, the key to open the seal is in my hand, so even if other players enter this tomb, I think they will not trigger related option interactions.

Jiang Xinghuo was thinking about these things when he saw a new text message pop up in the game.

"You have successfully deciphered the message left by Mr. Huang He and learned some secrets of the ancient world."

"You have opened the bounty niche."

"You can hunt down the remnants of the previous era, come to the niche shop to trade, and exchange for what you want."

Jiang Xinghuo took a look at the niche and found that the currency in circulation in the niche was something called "bounty order", not the most common incense.

The way to obtain the bounty order is, as described in the text, only by hunting down the remnants of the previous era.

As for the so-called previous era in the game, based on the clues currently available, Jiang Xinghuo felt that it should be a destroyed world, which is the old world mentioned repeatedly in the game text.

That world is opposed to the present secular world, which rejects the surviving lives of that world, which are the remnants mentioned in the text.

Of course, there must be some inside stories that Jiang Xinghuo doesn’t know, but based on the existing clues, the most basic underlying logic can still be sorted out.

However, he could only sort it out here, and there was no further clue.

Obviously, this is an advanced level that he cannot access now, so he can only put it aside for the time being and wait for an opportunity in the future.

"Do you want to continue exploring the tomb?"

A new message popped up in the game.

Jiang Xinghuo naturally would not choose to refuse. He remembered that there were many black pottery jars in the tomb, which might contain the materials needed to cast the Dharma image.

"You chose to continue exploring the tomb."

"You have triggered your treasure-hunting eye talent and want to see what is sealed in those black pottery jars."

"But unfortunately, these black pottery jars are made of special materials and have the ability to block all external detection methods."

"You can choose to smash those jars, but according to the rules set by Mr. Huang He, everyone only has three chances to choose."

"Please select the black pottery jar you want"

The phone screen flashed and a pattern appeared, which was similar to the interface of Candy Crush Saga, except that it looked like a black pottery jar.

Jiang Xinghuo didn’t think too much about it. Since the treasure-hunting eye didn’t work, it would all depend on luck.

Unfortunately, the completeness of the law of fortune is too low and cannot be triggered actively. Otherwise, you would be blessed with good fortune and luck, and everything you want would come true.

Jiang Xinghuo casually selected three black pottery jars, and new game text popped up.

"You smashed three black pottery jars, and the contents of the jars fell to the ground. Do you want to pick them up?" "You have obtained, Incense +1000."

"You have obtained, Incense +500."

"You have obtained the Rooster and Tiger Picture (Excellent Item)."

"Rooster and tiger picture (excellent item), the rooster eats the five poisons, the tiger eats evil spirits, the board painting with the blessing of these two spirits, hang it on the door, it can protect the house and make all evil spirits retreat."

Jiang Xinghuo took a quick look and threw the thing into the magic bag. After all, it was a free blind box, so it didn’t matter what came out.

In this way, Jiang Xinghuo had basically explored the underground palace. It took him nearly four days, and he found quite a few good things.

Although there are still some unknown small maps that I haven't visited, I will slowly push them forward in the future. I will talk about the rest of the things tomorrow.

In the next few days, Jiang Xinghuo had some free time. Every day when he had nothing to do, he would take a stroll in the Yellow River Underground Palace.

If you die, you can use a scapegoat to revive. When you have used up the number of resurrections, you can go to the martial arts master's dojo for training.

It wasn't until seven days later that new text content popped up in the game.

"The news of the Yellow River Underground Palace's appearance has spread. Many monsters and demons in the secular world, as well as other exiles, have learned about it and have come to the Yellow River Underground Palace to explore it."

"What are you going to do now?"

"Are you planning to wait outside the underground palace, extort money, and rob those who come here to look for treasure?"

"Or should we leave here, not get involved in their fight, and explore somewhere else?"

There are two options, either stay and take advantage of the situation, or go to another map.

Jiang Xinghuo thought about it and felt that there was no point in staying any longer. Several important props in the underground palace were in his hands, so there was no need to do such an immoral thing as robbery.

If you have this spare time, you can open up a new map and the gains you get may be greater and more valuable.

While exploring the underground palace, Jiang Xinghuo found clues to several new maps, some of which were above the secular world and some in reality.

The maps in the secular world are the Undying Village in the Unknown Land, the Salt God Village in Kanto, and the Datong Pawn Shop in Peking.

The story at Datong Pawn Shop has ended, and now there are only two places left: "Immortal Village" and "Salt God Village".

Jiang Xinghuo thought for a long time and decided to go to Yanshen Village first.

He was somewhat resistant to the "Undead Village" and felt that the map was too weird. He decided to postpone it as much as possible. It would not be too late to explore it again after his strength improved.

"You chose to go to Salt God Village."

"On the way..."

"We are still on the road..."

Jiang Xinghuo chose to start from Longmen and head to Yanshen Village in Kanto. The journey was long and would take at least three or four days.

In fact, he could just use the shrine to teleport himself to Kanto Castle first, and then travel according to the map, which would save him a lot of time.

But if he did that, he would miss some tasks along the way. Jiang Xinghuo thought to himself and decided that he didn't have anything to do anyway, so he could just walk slowly.

Isn't there a saying that the most beautiful scenery is always on the road? He wanted to see what unique and beautiful scenery there was along the way.
