My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 327 Dragon Locking Nail

"You used the Xinghe Water Control Method. With the help of the muddy water stick, the water level that was originally falling was stopped in an instant."

"But you still feel an evil force under the water, which is confronting and fighting against your strength. Fortunately, that evil force is no match for you."

"You raised the muddy stick in your hand with force, and a tornado suddenly rolled up in the well. Countless streams of water rushed up to the sky, carrying a corpse with them, and landed right in the middle of the yard."

Corpse? When Jiang Xinghuo saw this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and there was finally a change.

"Do you want to go forward and examine the body?"

Jiang Xinghuo chose yes without hesitation. After spending so much time and effort, there were finally some changes. If he missed it, all his efforts would have been in vain.

"You walked to the side of the corpse and looked at its appearance carefully. Although it had been dead for a long time, its appearance was still lifelike. The clothes it was wearing were also official uniforms of the previous dynasty, and it seemed that it was an official in the court."

"Are you going to grope the body?"

Jiang Xinghuo chose yes.

"You chose to search the corpse and found something on it. You gained something."

"You have obtained: a waist badge of the Water Department, a secret letter from the Water Master, a river measuring ruler, a water-repellent bead, and a scroll of water control methods."

"The waist badge of the Dushuisi (common item). During the era when the secular master ruled, the Dushuisi was under the Ministry of Works of the imperial court. It was in charge of the government orders regarding the secular waterways. This waist badge was a symbol of their identity."

"The river measuring ruler (excellent tool), the standard weapon of the Metropolitan Waterworks Department, can be used to defend oneself against enemies, and can also be used to measure the depth of water levels."

"Water-avoiding bead (excellent item). In the secular world, there is a strange beast called the Water-avoiding Rhino. It can walk underwater as if it were on flat ground and as fast as flying. If you cut open its belly, you can get this bead. If ordinary people wear it, they will not be in danger of drowning."

"Water Control (Excellent Technique), an advanced technique for water masters. After learning it, you can master the ability to control water flow and sense subtle changes in ocean currents."

"Do you want to learn this technique?"

Jiang Xinghuo didn't think too much and chose to study directly. His body shook and the relevant methods flooded into his mind.

Finally, only the secret letter from the navy was left.

"Do you want to see this confidential letter?"

"You chose to read the confidential letter."

"You learned from the secret letter that the corpse in front of you was originally the supervisor of the Dushui Bureau of the previous dynasty. After the fall of the Lord of the Secular World, the old order of the times was broken. It luckily escaped the disaster and lived in seclusion in the countryside."

"Later, a severe drought hit Shanggu City, and there was no water for seven years. A water master sent it a secret letter, wanting it to come over and see what was going on, what the problem was, and whether it could be solved."

"After receiving the letter, the Water Supervisor also came to the appointment as invited. After a detailed investigation, he found that the problem was in the Kitchen God Temple. Someone killed a dragon here and buried the dragon corpse under the Kitchen God Temple. He also used the Seven-Star Dragon Locking Nail to calm the soul, hoping to use the yang energy of the stove fire to wipe out the remaining dragon soul in the well."

"In order to solve the drought in Shanggu City, we must find the buried dragon corpse and release it. However, the director of the Water Bureau tried his best and only found a piece of the dragon's body in the well. He also lost his life..."

After reading the contents of the notebook, Jiang Xinghuo suddenly realized that his guess was correct. The reason why Shanggu City had no rain for seven years was because the dragon that created clouds and rain had died.

Not only that, the soul was also trapped under the Kitchen God Temple using the Seven-Star Dragon Locking Nail, which led to seven years of no rain.

Now the problem has been found, but how to solve it is also a troublesome matter.

The Director of Water Resources is the person in charge of water conservancy in the imperial court. Even the other party has not found a complete dragon corpse. How can he do anything about it?

"You have triggered the talent of treasure-hunting eyes."

"You looked through the treasure-hunting eye at the base of the Kitchen God Temple, but unfortunately, you didn't find any abnormal clues." "On the contrary, the dry well showed different information in the vision of Tathagata."

"Seven-Star Dragon Locking Nail·Remnant (Rare Item), a magical weapon that has a special effect on dragon-type monsters. No matter how powerful a calamity dragon or evil dragon is, once it is suppressed by the Seven-Star Dragon Locking Nail, it will never be able to cause any big waves again."

"Do you want to extract this dragon-locking nail?"

Jiang Xinghuo thought to himself that there was no reason to refuse a benefit that was delivered to his door. Although it was an incomplete magic weapon, it was still a rare weapon and he could not miss it.

"You wrapped the dragon-locking nail with your magic power and slowly pulled it upwards. When you pulled the dry well completely out of the ground, you vaguely heard a mournful dragon roar."

"You have obtained the Seven-Star Dragon Locking Nail - Remnant."

"You have obtained half of a dragon's body."

"This Kitchen God Temple was built during the reign of the Lord of the Secular World. It was built under the supervision of the imperial court. The geomancy map should still be within the former site of the Ministry of Works."

"You can go to the former site of the Ministry of Works in Peking and try to find the geomancy drawings. Perhaps you can find clues about the remaining six dragon-locking nails."

"Do you want to go to Beiping City immediately?"

Peking City?
The former site of the Ministry of Industry?

Jiang Xinghuo didn't think much about it. Since the hint had already been given, he might as well go and have a look. It was always better than flying around like a headless fly.

"You chose to go to Beiping City."

"You activated the shrine in Shanggu City, and the mysterious spatial power surged out. In a flash, you were already outside Beiping City."

"You walked into Beiping City and came to the old site of the Ministry of Works. Since the fall of the Lord of the Secular World, the officials of the Ministry of Works have died or fled. The huge government office is covered with dust, and there are many evil spirits living in it."

"You have triggered the Tathagata's talent."

"You found the structural diagram of the Ministry of Industry on the wall next to it, which clearly marked the locations of the various departments of the Ministry of Industry."

"The geomancy drawings of the Kitchen God Temple you are looking for are stored in the documents library of the Ministry of Works. It is filled with architectural materials and drawings from various dynasties."

"You have obtained the structural diagram of the Ministry of Industry."

"Do you want to go in and explore?"

Two options, go in, leave.

Jiang Xinghuo naturally would not choose the latter. He directly controlled the character in the game, pushed open the door and walked into the Ministry of Industry.

"You met a farmer head-on. When he saw you coming in, he immediately raised his hoe and hit you on the head."

"You triggered the Golden Bell Cover."

"The golden bell's Qi gathered an inch in front of him, and the hoe hit it right there, knocking him back several steps. The hoe also flew into the air, and when it fell, it happened to hit the back of the farmer's head."

"You have killed, country boy."

"You have obtained, Incense +200."
