My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 315: God Binding Talisman (24)

Jiang Xinghuo looked at the text on the game and knew that there was something fishy going on, but he still had to think carefully about how to proceed.

This is a word game. Information is power. The more information you get, the more options you have, and the easier things will be to handle.

On the contrary, if there is no information, things will be difficult. It is definitely not feasible to go in and rob openly, so we have to take other measures.

"You returned to the City Lord's Mansion."

"You found that the area around the City Lord's Mansion was heavily guarded, and strangers were strictly prevented from approaching."

"As soon as you approached the City Lord's Mansion, you were recognized by the guards standing outside the door, and they immediately called their companions to attack you."

"You were outnumbered and shot to pieces by the guards' muskets. Then they cut off your head and reported back. You are dead."

Depend on!
Died again!!

Jiang Xinghuo's unconvincing resurrection is explored again.

But the result was no different. Even if he used props to disguise himself, he could still be easily recognized by the guards.

Jiang Xinghuo thought it was weird and he didn't know how the guards found him.

Jiang Xinghuo tried again and died more than ten times in a row until all the dog food was used up and no new text appeared.

It’s so numb!

Jiang Xinghuo was so angry that he went to get some dog food. He thought to himself, I'm going to fight you. I don't believe you will never come out.

"You were wandering around outside the City Lord's Mansion. The guard saw that you dared to come in, so he came over with his weapons in hand."

Jiang Xinghuo quickly controlled his character to leave. Although the guards were not very strong, they were outnumbered and had powerful firearms in their hands. He didn't want to get into trouble again.

This happened repeatedly many times. Jiang Xinghuo just wandered around the gate of the City Lord's Mansion. He ran when the guards came over and came back when the guards left.

This made the guards annoyed, and in the end, as long as he didn't take the initiative to approach the City Lord's Mansion, the guards would not attack.

It was not until the second half of the night, when Jiang Xinghuo was half asleep and half awake, that he heard a notification message on his mobile phone.

"You are wandering outside the City Lord's Mansion..."

"You saw the pond collector and the old monk walking out of the mansion drunkenly, carrying the tomb's mourning hall in their hands. Do you plan to follow them and wait for an opportunity to act?"

Jiang Xinghuo was cheered up. They had finally arrived. I couldn't beat you when you were sober, but now that you're drunk, you can still beat them, right?
"You chose to follow..."

"You were discovered by the old monk."

"You are no match for it. You are severely injured by its blow. The old monk bared his sharp teeth, ripped off your arm, and began to feast on it."

"Your internal organs have been hollowed out..."

"You were eaten by the feasting monk."

"You are dead."

"Feasting Monk, a monk from the Ten Directions Zen Forest Heaven Burial Temple, is cruel by nature and eats everything, especially the flesh and blood of living people. He was later expelled from the Ten Directions Zen Forest by Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva and began to wander around in the secular world."

A cannibalistic monk?
Looking at the prompt information in the game text, Jiang Xinghuo looked thoughtful, as if he had thought of something. He opened the magic bag and rummaged through it, found something, and prepared to continue the game the next day.

The next day, early in the morning.

"You awakened at the shrine in Kanto Castle."

"You found the followers of the Lord of the Rabble on the street. The Rabble are the top intelligence dealers in the secular world. As long as you pay a small price, you can get the information you want."

"You found a rabble, gave him 100 incense sticks, and wanted to find out the news about the feasting monk and the pond collector."

"That rabble put away his incense and gave the answer with a smile on his face. You can try your luck at the Dead Market in Guandong City. Some people have seen the monk feasting there."

"You have unlocked a new map, Dead Man's Market." "Dead Man's Market, the largest black market ghost market in Kanto. You can find a lot of rare things there, but you must also be careful of being tricked by others."

"Do you want to go to the Dead Man's Market immediately?"

Jiang Xinghuo didn’t think too much about it and directly chose yes, then controlled the character to go to the Dead Man’s Map.

"You chose to go to the Dead Man's Market."

"On the way..."

"Please wait."

"You have arrived, Dead Man's Set."

"You lit up the shrine of the dead."

"You have come to the dead market in Guandong City. It is bustling with people. You have spotted the monk who is feasting and the pond collector in the crowd. Do you want to follow them?"

"You chose to follow."

"You followed the two men to a secluded place with no one around, and were discovered by them again."

"You were eaten by the feasting monk again."

"You are dead."

"But when you were being eaten, a gourd fell from your body and landed on the ground. The lid opened and exuded a refreshing aroma of wine."

"The monk who was feasting and the man who was collecting the wine could not help but pick up the gourd and drink up all the wine in it."

"You have used the Immortal Drunk."

"Immortal Drunk (Rare), the essence of the old winemaker's blend of hundreds of different kinds of wine, the wine is extremely strong, almost no one in the world can resist it, it can easily intoxicate others to death."

"Current quantity remaining: 2/5."

"The feasting monk and the pond collector drank the Immortal Wine, and the terrifying strong liquor quickly took effect in their bodies."

"They simply cannot withstand the damage caused by alcohol, and their internal organs are quickly digested and devoured by the strong liquor."

"The monk is dead."

"The person who collected the pond is dead."

"You have obtained, Incense +3000."

Jiang Xinghuo looked at the text that popped up in the game, grinned, and immediately activated the scapegoat, resurrected the shrine in the dead group, and then found the bodies of the monk and the pool collector.

"You searched the body and found some good stuff."

"You have obtained a funeral hall, a volume of the Pool Collection Spell, a volume of the Strange Food Sutra, a God Binding Talisman, and a map of the Zhishi Daochang."

"The Curse of Collecting the Pond (common magic), a method for apprentices of collecting ponds to get started. Draw a pond on the ground, sit on the grave and serve the ghosts. It can forcibly restrain the dead souls in the mourning hall of the grave."

"The Abnormal Food Sutra (a rare technique), a forbidden technique of the Ten Directions Zen Forest Sky Burial Temple. It requires the consumption of large amounts of dead bodies and rotten flesh to aid in cultivation. It is said that if one cultivates to the extreme, one can digest everything in the world."

Jiang Xinghuo took a look at it, took out the pond-collecting spell to learn, and hung the Strange Food Sutra on the niche for sale.

He doesn't have such a good appetite to eat dead human flesh to practice magic. Besides, such a disgusting method is not suitable for normal people to practice at all.

After dealing with these two inconspicuous spells, Jiang Xinghuo turned his attention to the remaining things.

"The God Binding Talisman (a rare talisman), a magical talisman of unknown origin, has the power to suppress and seal away evil spirits."

"Please note that the sealing strength of the talisman is closely related to the caster's cultivation and the grade of the talisman paper, so it needs to be used with caution."
