My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 434 Five Internal Organs God

"You have entered Wufu Town. The village is full of life and the air is filled with the faint aroma of medicinal food."

"When the villagers saw you coming in, they all smiled and nodded. There was no xenophobia at all. This was completely different from the intrigues and deceptions in the secular world."

"A villager brought me a bowl of black medicinal food. Although it doesn't look good, the smell it exudes is really tempting. Do you want to take this bowl of medicinal food?"

"You have triggered the Tathagata's talent."

"You discovered the medicinal food, the lung nourishing soup."

"Lung Nourishing Soup (Ordinary), a medicinal food specially formulated to warm and nourish the lungs, is very suitable for consumption in autumn and winter. It is warm and moist in the mouth. If consumed year-round, it can greatly improve one's lung function."

There's no problem, then you can rest assured.

"You took the medicinal food handed to you, smiled and said thank you, then drank the food in the bowl."

"You feel that the smell of medicinal food in the town makes you feel relaxed and happy, and even the fatigue and exhaustion in your body disappear without a trace at this moment. Do you want to continue to wander deeper into the town, or leave here now?"

Jiang Xinghuo chose to continue walking around the town. This bowl of medicine gave him an intuition that he might be able to gain more benefits in the town.

Just after taking the bowl of lung-nourishing soup, he felt a change in reality. His lungs were obviously more energetic than before, and he felt extremely comfortable when breathing, as if the organ had restarted.

"You chose to continue to walk around the town. That bowl of medicinal food made you see the value of this town. You were greedy and wanted to gain more benefits."

"But these vulgar people in the world will never learn their lesson. Greed can only bring two things: death and conquest. There is no third option. Either you make a fortune, or you lose everything and die a miserable death."

"What will be your final outcome? Conquest? Or death?"

“Perhaps only you know the answer.”

"Where are you going to go next? The Mingmu Hall in the north of the town, or the crowded Gushen Hall, or the Liufu Building..."

The game gave several options. Jiang Xinghuo took a quick look and found that they corresponded to various organs inside and outside the human body.

However, the text did not give a specific description, so it was naturally difficult to tell the difference, so Jiang Xinghuo decided to do them one by one in order, which would probably take a few days.

"You chose to go to Mingmu Hall first."

"Mingmu Hall is located in the north of Wufu Town. It is best at treating eye diseases and is said to have mastered the biotechnology of living eye replacement."

"You walked into the noisy Mingmu Hall. Although it was just dawn outside, there were already many outsiders waiting here seeking medical advice. The staff in the pharmacy were also busy preparing and boiling herbs."

"But at this moment, there was a sudden noise from the crowd. Looking for the source, I found that someone wanted to cut in line and started arguing with other patients in the queue."

"The doctor in the pharmacy went to offer his condolences, but was grabbed by the collar and thrown onto the street."

"Do you want to stop that evil guest's behavior?"

Jiang Xinghuo thought about it and felt that this should be the prerequisite for triggering the task. If he chose to refuse, he would probably have no chance of completing the subsequent tasks.

"You chose to stop the other person's behavior. You went over and clamped the other person's wrist with your backhand, and actually broke the arm of the evil guest. The other person also fled in panic holding his arm, not daring to stay here any longer."

"The guy who was thrown out earlier also walked into the pharmacy, holding his chest and thanking you repeatedly. If you hadn't helped, that rascal would have continued to cause trouble."

"At this time, the owner of the medicine hall also came over from the back and invited you to come into the inner hall for a chat. Do you want to go over?"

Two options, yes or no.

Jiang Xinghuo thought to himself that it had come, and just as he expected, the choice he made triggered the subsequent plot.

If I had chosen to stand idly by, I might have missed this opportunity.

"You followed the owner of the medicine hall into the inner hall, and a waiter brought up two cups of chrysanthemum eye-brightening tea."

"Tathagatagarbha, open."

"Chrysanthemum Eye-Brightening Tea (Ordinary), a tea made with chrysanthemum and bear bile, has the effect of clearing the heart and eyes, and removing heart fire. Drinking it is beneficial and harmless."

Jiang Xinghuo glanced at the text description before drinking the cup of tea with confidence. In reality, his vision was blurry at first, then clear.

But Jiang Xinghuo did not feel much change, because his eyes had already undergone various adjustments and improvements, and could be said to be the healthiest organs in his body.

"The owner of the pharmacy expressed his gratitude for your kindness just now and conveyed his goodwill to you. At the same time, he also sighed that Wufu Town welcomes patients from all over the world, so the people who come are mixed, and all kinds of people may be encountered."

"Those with high status are easy to deal with. Even if they are considering the King of Medicine, they will not do anything to the people of Wufu Town. The problem lies with those ruffians. They are as difficult to deal with as dog-skin plasters and often deliberately find faults to ask for money."

"Although the villagers in the town are familiar with medical skills, they don't know much about the means to defeat the enemy. In addition, according to the ancestral teachings, they cannot harm people with poison, so they can only tolerate those hooligans again and again."

"But when you dealt with that scoundrel, your moves were clean and neat, without any drag. The owner of the medicine hall had other ideas and wanted to ask if you could leave some of your boxing and kicking skills for the villagers in the town to practice self-defense."

"They had met other masters before, but due to their different schools, all they left behind were fancy moves, which were good for stretching but useless for fighting against the enemy."

"Do you want to agree to the medicine hall master's request?"

Jiang Xinghuo read the text description and thought to himself that this was what they called a difficult little devil.

Those powerful monsters were afraid of the Medicine King and did not dare to do anything to the people of Wufu Town.

But those unknown scoundrels don't have this taboo and can find all kinds of ways to harass others.

Jiang Xinghuo thought about it for a while, and finally agreed to the other party's request.

Anyway, I learned the Five Animal Exercises here. They taught me voluntarily and without asking for any reward.

As the saying goes, if you give me a peach, you will get a jade in return. It is normal to keep some things for yourself.

Maybe you can even gain some favor and trigger some hidden task mechanisms.

Jiang Xinghuo rummaged through his magic bag, then went for a walk around the niche shop. In a short while, he had collected all five martial arts skill books.

Of course, he definitely couldn't hand over the Nine Deaths Cicada. It was a mythical level of martial arts. Even if he sold the Five Fortune Town as a package, it wouldn't be worth the price.

"Tiger Form Fist (common practice), a traditional Chinese martial art, is created by imitating the movements of tigers in the mountains when they pounce on their prey. It emphasizes tearing, grabbing, and using qi to stimulate strength. The force penetrates the fingertips and has the momentum of moving mountains out of forests."

"Iron Shirt (common practice), internal training of the breath, external training of the muscles, bones and skin, the external horizontal training of traditional Chinese martial arts, can slightly improve physical fitness, and train the muscles and skin of the body to be extremely tough, like a cover of iron, hence the name."

"Crane Form Fist (common-grade technique), a traditional Chinese martial art, is inspired by the way a crane hunts. The moves are gentle and agile, with an emphasis on evasive movement and the flow of internal energy, supplemented by the crane's pecking technique to attack the enemy's weak points."

"Monkey-shaped boxing (common-grade martial arts), an external Xingyi boxing of the national martial arts, was created by imitating the leaping and jumping posture of the monkeys in the mountains. Because it is used to pick peaches with a sharp eye, there is no need to practice standing practice or strength training, and it only matters whether the body is agile or not."

"Dachanqi (Excellent Breathing Method) is a breathing method that exercises the internal organs. Through special breathing methods, one can strengthen the internal organs and gain a physique beyond that of an ordinary person. It can also be used to eliminate toxins from the body."

Jiang Xinghuo spent five hundred incense sticks to buy three boxing secret books in the niche shop, namely the tiger form, crane form and monkey form, and added the iron shirt and big toad qi that he already had.

After internal cultivation and external training, he had just enough skills to complete a task, which he handed over to the owner of Mingmu Hall.

"When the master of the medicine hall saw the secret book you left behind, he was very happy and very grateful to you."

"Your reputation in Wufu Town has been improved by +3."

"Your reputation in the Medicine King lineage has been improved, +1."

"Note: Your reputation among different forces or professions may affect the number of events and options that can be triggered when you come into contact with this force or profession in the future. The higher the reputation level, the more events and options can be triggered."

"In order to thank you for your kindness, the owner of Mingmu Hall has also prepared a reward for you."

"It originally inherited the method of curing eye diseases, but your eyes are bright and there is nothing wrong with them. So in order to repay your kindness, the owner of the medicine hall dragged out a dusty black pottery jar from under his bed."

"This jar was given to it as a reward for curing the eye disease of a Taoist's descendant many years ago."

"It is said that if you swallow the contents of the jar, you will gain superhuman vision, but the owner of the medicine hall is not interested in it, so he just put it under the bed as a collection."

"Now, I will give it to you as a small reward for your kindness."

"You have obtained the old black pottery jar."

"Do you want to turn it on?"

"You chose to open this jar and take out the pickled contents, which turned out to be a salted eyeball."

"You have triggered the Tathagata's talent."

"You have seen the secrets hidden beneath the surface of this salt-stained eyeball."

"You have obtained the pickled Taoist Heavenly Eye."

"Pickled Taoist Heavenly Eyes. The Heavenly Eyes are a Taoist secret technique, and their functions and effects are different."

"Some eyes can see the boundary between yin and yang, some can see the rise and fall of destiny, and some can see through illusions..."

"The Taoist Heavenly Eye in your hand was originally left behind by a Taoist priest after his death. Because his entire life's cultivation was focused on this eye, it retains all the abilities that he mastered during his lifetime."

"As long as you swallow this eyeball into your body, you can obtain the secret technique of the Heavenly Eye that the other party mastered during his lifetime without having to practice."

"Note: Taoist secret arts emphasize following the will of heaven. Everything depends on your own heart. If you don't want to hold this thing anymore, you can remove it from your body at any time. It won't cause any impact on you."

"Do you want to eat this eyeball?"

Jiang Xinghuo looked at the description of the game text and thought carefully for a while.

Although the text does not explain what the ability of this eyeball is, it can be removed from the body at any time, so it doesn't matter even if it is swallowed, the worst that can happen is that it can be removed again.

"You chose to devour this pickled eyeball."

Jiang Xinghuo directly chose to use this prop. After the game text appeared for a while, a light blue light flashed in his left eye, and his pupils kept jumping like flames.

"Seeing through walls (rare technique), the secret of the Taoist Heavenly Eye, can see through everything, see all directions, and see everything around you, without being blocked by any visible or invisible objects, and everything is like looking at the lines on your palm."

"The range of vision is closely related to one's own mana. The stronger the cultivation, the wider the range of vision."

"Special talent: sharing the sweetness of life."

"Sharing the sweetness and the taste: A skill in the Taoist Heavenly Eye Method that allows you to simultaneously share your vision with others, with a maximum limit of nine people."

Jiang Xinghuo raised his eyes and looked towards the shop next door. Although there was a wall blocking the way, he could still see the other party's actions clearly, as if he was watching a movie.

This feeling is different from the crown of thorns of the anointed one. The crown of thorns is a net woven by spiritual power that covers the surroundings, which is somewhat similar to the monitoring phenomenon of satellite radar.

The view through the wall is like that of a high-definition camera. There is nothing obstructing the view and everything is clear and distinct.

After Jiang Xinghuo tried several times, he finally closed the wall with a feeling of unsatisfaction.

This ability was really beyond his expectations. It could be of great use both in the game and in reality.

"You left Mingmu Hall and came to the street outside. Where are you going to go next?"

Jiang Xinghuo obtained the divine eye that could see through walls, but there was no further plot afterwards.

The owner of the pharmacy also had no dialogue options, so he had to leave Mingmu Hall and go to other places for a look.

"You choose to go shopping at Baiwei Pavilion."

"Baiwei Pavilion is the same as Mingmu Hall. Both are places for diagnosing diseases based on human organs. However, Mingmu Hall focuses on the eyes, while Baiwei Hall focuses on the nose and tongue."

"One of these two organs corresponds to the sense of smell, and the other corresponds to the sense of taste. If there is a problem, it can also help us find out what is wrong with the body and provide timely treatment so that the disease does not become too serious."

Jiang Xinghuo controlled the game character and walked into Baiweitang, but did not trigger any useful plot.

I just chatted with the owner of Baiweitang for a while and got a box of Wuweisan from him.

"Five Flavors Powder (special item), the five flavors of life, sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty. All the flavors in the world are basically derived from these five flavors."

"Therefore, as long as these five flavors are adjusted in proportion, the effect of influencing a person's mood can be achieved."

Jiang Xinghuo had no interest in this, so he didn't pay much attention to it. He just threw the things into the magic bag and went to explore other places. During the day, Jiang Xinghuo was busy with the business in the store and took the time to wander around in the game.

After a day, he unlocked several maps and obtained some props and materials, but they were not of great value and were between ordinary and excellent.

Moreover, he died twice during this period due to breaking taboos. Fortunately, he had a scapegoat in his hand, and he did not fall behind in the exploration progress.

In the evening, a courier from SF Express came and brought him another box of goods.

When Jiang Xinghuo saw the sender's address on the box, which was from the Guanzhong area of ​​Shaanxi, he knew it must have been sent to him by the old man.

He opened the box and saw that in addition to some local specialties, there were also a dozen strange-looking Nuo opera masks.

"What a simple old man..."

Jiang Xinghuo sighed lightly, put away the things in the box, took out his phone and called back, but it was the local courier who answered the phone.

According to the courier boy, the old man did not leave his phone number when he sent the package. Fortunately, they were not outsiders. The boy was the old man's great-nephew, so he left his phone number.

Jiang Xinghuo had no choice but to ask the courier to express his gratitude. He originally wanted to add WeChat and transfer one thousand yuan to the courier to pass it to the old man.

Later I thought, I don’t know the identity of the person on the other side, so I should wait a few days and go over to thank him in person.

After seeing off the last wave of customers, Jiang Xinghuo looked at the time, locked the shop door, mopped the floor, and finally went to the kitchen to make himself some food.

After dinner, Jiang Xinghuo returned to the living room on the second floor. While watching TV, he took out his mobile phone, opened the game, and logged into his account.

"You awakened at the shrine in Wufu Town."

"It's getting dark now. Do you plan to find a place to rest for the night, or take advantage of the night to wander around the town?"

There are two options: find a place to rest or wander around after dark.

Jiang Xinghuo chose the latter. He had already visited Wufu Town during the day, and now it was time to visit Wufu Town at night.

"You choose to take advantage of the night to stroll around Wufu Town."

"You were walking on the streets of Wufu Town, thinking about where to go to explore, but unexpectedly, you found a figure curled up in a corner at the entrance of the alley ahead."

"Do you want to go over and take a look?"

Jiang Xinghuo's heart moved, and he decided to go over to check, controlling the game character to walk closer to the man.

"You came to the side of the curled up figure, but before you could say anything, you smelled the scent of Fu Shou cigarettes, mixed with the stench of the body and the smell of blood, the pungent smell was unbearable."

"You found a drug addict who was seriously injured."

"He was curled up in the corner of the alley, shaking all over, with no color on his pale face. He seemed to be addicted to cigarettes, and he kept moaning."

"You squatted down and listened carefully, and found that the person was muttering a place name, which seemed to be the three words Yangfeiju."

"Yangfeiju is a place in Wufu Town that specializes in treating lung diseases. The Yangfei soup you drank this morning is the medicinal food prepared by Yangfeiju."

"At this time, you noticed that the drug addict was not wearing ordinary clothes, but the patrol uniform of the Longcheng Police Station."

"This drug addict traveled so far, from the Northern Ocean to Wufu Town, could it be that he was looking for Yangfeiju?"

"There may be some unknown inside story. Do you want to send this drug addict to Yangfeiju to see what he wants to do?"

"What will you choose next?"

"Will you pretend you don't know about this and let this drug addict lie here to fend for himself, or will you be a good person and send him to Yangfeiju, or will you cut his neck with a knife when no one sees him? Even if it's not worth much, a little bit of it adds up."

There are three options: ignore this matter, send the drug addict to Yangfeiju, or kill the drug addict.

Ignoring it definitely won't work. If you choose this option, the subsequent plot will have nothing to do with him, which means that the event has been triggered in vain.

If you want to continue to participate in the subsequent plot, you must choose between the last two answers.

Jiang Xinghuo thought about it and decided to send the drug addict to Yangfeiju.

Although this choice might affect his reputation in Wufu Town, drug addicts are the most notorious people in the world after all.

But he still wanted to give it a try, maybe there would be some different plots.

Longcheng is located in the secular Beiyang area. For a patrolman to come all the way to Wufu Town, there must be something going on, otherwise these despicable drug addicts would have found ways to get incense and buy cigarettes.

"You chose to send this drug addict to Yangfeiju. You endured the stench coming from him and supported him to Yangfeiju in the west of the town."

"You knocked on the door of Yangfeiju. After a while, a light came on in the front room and a waiter opened the door and came out."

"Your behavior in Mingmu Hall today has certainly spread throughout Wufu Town, especially since you left five unique skills in the town, which makes the people in the town grateful for your kindness."

"So, when the guy saw that it was you who knocked on the door, he didn't ask the identity of the drug addict and directly let you into the house."

"At this time, Uncle Fei, the owner of Yangfeiju, also came out from the back, bowed, and asked if there was anything he could help with."

"You placed the junkie's body on the chair and briefly explained what had just happened."

"After hearing what you said, Uncle Fei also felt strange. He didn't understand why an addict would come to him. Did he want to quit smoking?"

"After hearing this, you became very curious and asked Uncle Fei, is it possible to quit smoking after getting addicted to Fu Shou cigarettes?"

"Uncle Fei nodded and said that everything is interdependent. If something exists, there must be something that restrains it. The same is true for Fu Shou tobacco. There is a prescription to quit it."

"However, if you want to quit smoking, you need to endure a lot of pain, not only the physical torture of smoking addiction, but also the temptation of desire deep in your heart."

After reading it, Jiang Xinghuo looked thoughtful. He didn't know whether this prescription had any effect on quitting other addictive substances.

If there is one, you can ask for this recipe. Maybe it can be of great use in the real world.

"While talking to you, Uncle Lung walked over to the drug addict, not caring about the smell coming from him, and wiped the dirt off his face with a wet towel."

"But the next moment, Uncle Fei was stunned. His expression became agitated and he hurriedly ran to the pharmacy next door to get medicine."

"The guy came over and took a look, and he also exclaimed, revealing the identity of this drug addict."

"This drug addict turned out to be Uncle Fei's only son. He left Wufu Town a few years ago to make a living. As a result, there has been no news for several years. No one knows where he went. I didn't expect him to become like this."

"Uncle Lung took the pill in his hand and, with the help of his assistant, gave the pill to Little Uncle Lung."

"Little Uncle Lung's pale and bloodless face also became a little more rosy. He took this breath and saved his life."

"Uncle Fei was very grateful to you for saving his son's life. If you hadn't saved him, he would have died after one night."

Tsk, Jiang Xinghuo thought to himself, don't just thank me verbally, show some appreciation, otherwise it would seem too insincere.

But Uncle Fei seemed to care too much about his son and didn't even mention the reward. Jiang Xinghuo didn't care much either. He just wanted to see what kind of plot would be triggered later.

"After an incense stick of time, Uncle Xiaofei woke up from his coma, and you learned the whole story from his account."

"A few years ago, Uncle Xiaofei was attracted by the colorful world outside and wanted to go out and explore the world."

"After considering it, Uncle Fei didn't want his son to die of old age in this small town, so he agreed to his son's idea of ​​going out to explore the world."

"After leaving Wufu Town, Uncle Xiaofei wandered around all the way and finally came to Longcheng, an important town in Beiyang."

"When in Longcheng, it used its medical skills to cure the chief inspector of the police station's lung disease. The chief inspector then made it the chief inspector of the police station and wanted to promote it to take over his job in the future. However, a villain plotted against it and not only killed the chief inspector, but also lured it to smoke Fushou cigarettes."

"At first, Uncle Xiaofei wanted to quit smoking longevity cigarettes by his own will, but the addiction was too strong and Uncle Xiaofei soon gave in. From then on, he sank into the sea of ​​desire for longevity."

"It was not until he saw the daughter of the deceased chief inspector, who had lost her father's protection and became a prostitute, that Uncle Little Lung suddenly woke up from his nightmare."

"Little Uncle Lung wanted to take the Chief Inspector's daughter away from Dragon City, but he ended up being hunted down by the mastermind behind the scenes."

"The chief inspector's daughter also died in a swarm of swords trying to save him. Little Uncle Fei wanted to avenge his lover, but the smoke of longevity had already hollowed out his body. Even a seven-year-old boy could easily beat him up."

"Little Uncle Fei survived the serious injury by chance. He stumbled along the way and wanted to return to Wufu Town to ask his father to help him quit smoking Fushou cigarettes. He wanted to return to Longcheng to seek revenge."

Jiang Xinghuo finished reading Xiao Fei Bo's story. The story was not complicated. It was a well-received story of a prodigal son turning over a new leaf, turning over a new leaf, and becoming a new man.

There are countless similar stories throughout history, and film and television dramas have long since exhausted this topic.

"After Uncle Little Lung finished telling his story, he fainted again due to his injuries."

"Uncle Fei and his men are busy treating its wounds and have no time to receive you for the time being. What do you want to do next?"

"Do you plan to just wander around Yangfeiju, or leave Yangfeiju and come back tomorrow?"

There are two options: stay in Yangfeiju to explore, or leave Yangfeiju.

Jiang Xinghuo thought about it and decided to stay in Yangfeiju.

"You chose to stay in Yangfeiju to explore. Uncle Fei and his men were busy rescuing people over there, and you walked to the main hall of Yangfeiju on your own."

"You stood in the middle of the hall, looked around, and found an exquisite white jade statue. It looked like a Taoist priest, with eyebrows, eyes, beard and hair carved vividly."

"You opened the Tathagatagarbha in your right eye, and through the innate characteristics of the Tathagatagarbha, you understood the secret of this white jade statue."

"At this time, Uncle Fei also came over. Little Uncle Fei's injuries were no longer serious, but the nicotine had taken root in his body. If he wanted to completely quit, it would take more than a day or two."

"But no matter what, as long as lives are saved, everything can be done slowly. It's just a matter of time."

"At this time, you asked about the statue, and Uncle Fei told you the origin of the statue without reservation."

"This statue is called the Lung Nourishing God, one of the five internal organs gods. It is a secular deity left behind by the Medicine King's disciples. There were originally 24 of them, corresponding to the three parts, eight scenes and 24 gods in the human body."

"It is said that as long as someone can pass the King of Medicine's test, they can fuse it with their own organs and gain corresponding abilities."

"Over the years, many outsiders have passed the test and obtained the protection of those divine objects. Only the statues representing the internal organs are left, and no one has succeeded in challenging them yet."

"If you are interested, you can try to challenge it. As long as you can pass the test of the King of Medicine, you can obtain the protection and blessing of the God of Nourishing Lungs."

"You have discovered the Lung-nourishing Spirit."

"Lung Nourishing Spirit (Excellent), created by the Medicine King with his own magical power, it has the ability to nourish the lungs and regulate lung qi. After integrating with the body's organs, it can obtain organ functions beyond those of ordinary people."

"Do you want to try to challenge the Lung Nourishing God?"

Jiang Xinghuo naturally would not choose to refuse, and chose to challenge without hesitation.

Although he didn't know what the trial was about, success or failure didn't matter to him.

If you succeed, it’s better. If you fail, try again. Slowly but surely, you will succeed sooner or later.

"According to Uncle Fei, as long as you put your hand on the statue, you can trigger the test left by the King of Medicine. Do you want to go over and put your hand on the statue?"

"Walk in front of the Lung Nourishing God and place your hand on the surface of the statue. You will immediately feel a stream of Qi flowing along the acupuncture points on your palm, quickly flowing into your body and circulating rapidly through your meridians."

"What you need to do is to guide this Qi flow into your hand Taiyin lung meridian, penetrate the acupuncture points on the meridian, and finally flow into the lungs along the Yunmen acupoint."

"As long as you can do this perfectly, you can pass the Medicine King's trial mission and merge the Lung Nourishing Spirit with your own lungs."

Jiang Xinghuo looked at the text and his expression gradually became a little strange.

This……

Seems a bit too simple, doesn't it?
His Ren and Du meridians and the twelve meridians of his hands and feet had long been opened up, and the true Qi in his body could circulate freely.

Now, if he wants to tame an external source of true Qi, isn’t that an easy task?
