My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 541: Sword Immortal's Tomb
After weighing the pros and cons, Jiang Xinghuo finally gave up the idea of ​​fusing the eyeball. Since he could carry it with him, there was no need to take the risk of fusing the organ.

In this way, even if the Taoist of Natural Disaster locked his position through his eyeball, he could discard the eyeball at any time and get rid of the Taoist of Natural Disaster's power.

If I choose to merge with my own organs, I can't dig out my eyes, right? ?

"You suppressed your greed and gave up on fusing this Eye of Calamity. I have to say that you made a very clear choice."

"Taoist Tianzai tried to find his lost eye more than once, but failed in the end. He could only feel that the eye was still inside the mining city, but could not lock on its specific location."

"Be careful. When you carry this eyeball with you, as long as you are not in the range of the Taoist priest's sight, he will not be able to lock onto your exact location."

In this way, Jiang Xinghuo sorted out all the harvests. The gunpowder workshop was no longer of much value to him. Except for the secret recipe for preparing gunpowder, basically everything else he could find was already in his hands.

As for the secret recipe of gunpowder that allowed the gunpowder workshop to survive in the mining town, I think only the master chefs knew it and it would not be put on paper. If they didn't want to tell it, it would not be easy to obtain the secret recipe.

Of course, Jiang Xinghuo did not force it. His main idea was to have a Buddhist mentality. If he could get it, it would be better. But if he couldn't get it, it didn't matter.

"You cleaned up all the traces and returned to the workshop in the front yard to continue working. At night, the chef who had gone to the City Lord's Mansion for a banquet returned to the workshop. Although he had drunk a lot of wine that night, he still found traces of violence in the yard, so he called you over to ask if anyone had come during the day?"

"As for these master chefs' questions, you had already prepared for them. You left the traces in the yard intentionally. You brought them to the dry well in the yard, pointed at the mutilated body of the Lancet Master, and told him what happened during the day."

"You said you followed the master chef's instructions and didn't open the door for anyone who knocked. But the Lancet Blade Man climbed over the wall and broke in, trying to steal the gunpowder in the mixing room. You took advantage of his inattention and assassinated him from behind, throwing him into the dry well, and didn't let him get what he wanted."

"The master chef walked into the gunpowder mixing room and found that nothing was missing. Even the gunpowder mixing secret recipe on the cabinet had not been moved. It was obvious that you did not lie to them."

"Several master chefs also praised you repeatedly. They thought you were a trustworthy person and could be entrusted with more important tasks. Your behavior during the day was also worthy of reward. They would give you some rewards."

"You have obtained the primary gunpowder purification secret recipe (excellent)."

"Primary gunpowder purification secret recipe (excellent). It records the method of purifying gunpowder. Although it is only an entry-level method, it can also increase the power of gunpowder and remove the impurities contained in it."

Last time I got the secret recipe for mixing basic gunpowder, and now I got the secret recipe for purifying gunpowder. It seems that there is a lot to say here, and not all problems can be solved by just one secret recipe.

"The master chef of the gunpowder workshop gave you the reward and told you that tomorrow is a day off, so you can take two days off to wander around freely. You can come back to work in two days."

Jiang Xinghuo knew that tomorrow was the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

The ancient tomb will appear in the ancient mountain mine, and these masters should go there with the City Lord's Mansion to explore.

Jiang Xinghuo was also very happy. Even if the gunpowder shop was open tomorrow, he couldn't stay here any longer.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, in addition to the ancient tomb, he had several other mission clues on hand, including the corner room of the Bafang Linglou, the beggar Tongtian in the Fuchun Teahouse in Beiping, and the secrets hidden in the Jici Mine...

All these tasks are concentrated on the night of the Lantern Festival, and he has to think carefully about where to go first, then where to go, and finally where to go.

.........

The next night.

The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the Shangyuan Festival.

This is the first festival after the New Year. Not only is the real world decorated with lights and colors, but the game world is also bustling as well, with the triggering rates of various time events being increased.

"You heard a faint cry for help coming from the Moon. It seemed that someone was trapped on that man-made celestial body. The faint voice seemed to ring in your ears, calling for help over and over again..."

Jiang Xinghuo ignored the cry for help. The key point was that there was no way. He couldn't go to the moon to save the other person right now. Besides, he didn't have the ability to rescue the other person.

"Where are you planning to go next?"

Jiang Xinghuo chose to go to the Bafang Linglou, intending to see if the door of the unknown room in the corner showed any signs of being opened.

"You have arrived at the Bafang Linglou."

"You came to the outside of the room and saw that many people had gathered around. They were all ghost hunters who wanted to try to enter. But the door was still tightly closed and there was no sign of it opening. Perhaps, the door had already been opened, but no one else could see it except the chosen person."

"Do you want to wait here quietly for the opportunity?"

Jiang Xinghuo thought about it and finally chose no. It was still unknown whether this door could be opened. If he wasted time here, the progress of other maps would have to be put on hold. Comparing the two, it would be too uneconomical to wait here.

"You have left Bafang Linglou. Where are you going now?"

"Will you choose to return to the mining city to explore, or go to Beiping to keep the appointment at Fuchun Teahouse?"

It's about seven o'clock now and it's getting dark.

It is unknown when the ancient tomb in the mining town will appear.

Therefore, Jiang Xinghuo planned to go to Fuchun Teahouse in Peking first to meet the beggar Tongtian and see what the other party was trying to do.

"You have activated the teleportation function of the shrine and have come to the Fuchun Teahouse in Peking. Do you want to enter it immediately?"

"You walked into the Fuchun Teahouse and told the waiter who came up to you that you were looking for a man called Beggar Tongtian."

"The waiter at the teahouse immediately took you to a private room on the second floor and said that the person you were looking for was in that room."

"You pushed the door open and found that the person in the room was the beggar you met last time. He was dressed in silk and satin, with a large golden bowl on the table. No matter how you looked at him, he didn't look like a beggar."

"According to some people in the secular world who know the story, many years ago, the legend of Beggar Tongtian was circulated in the secular world. Although he was dressed in gorgeous clothes and held a golden bowl, his favorite thing was to beg from people. Some people said that he was expelled from the eight major sects by the new leader during the power struggle among the eight major sects in the martial arts world. Some people said that this was his quirk and he liked to beg from people. Some people said that he practiced a kind of evil kung fu. The so-called begging was to borrow luck. Everyone who gave him money would have a part of his luck borrowed from him."

"There are many different opinions, but no one has ever determined it. The only thing that is certain is that if someone gives it money when it begs, it will definitely get a generous reward from the other party. The value of what it gets will far exceed what it gives, so many people hope to meet this strange person." "As for why it does this, no one knows the specific reason. We only know that it seems to be looking for something."

"But over time, some hooligans saw the opportunity and began to imitate the legend of the beggar, cheating people on the street. Many people were deceived. Therefore, when they met such people later, they didn't dare to believe them. On the night of New Year's Eve, it wandered the street for most of the day, but in the end, only a few people gave it money. Including you, there were only three people."

"Among these three people, you are the only one who sincerely gave it money. The other two people just wanted to give it a try first and see what happens next."

"Beggar Tongtian also gave them some insignificant but still generous rewards, just as the legend says, and then quietly waited for your arrival here."

"Beggar Tongtian sat there with a big smile on his face, saying that he would give you a great opportunity that would make a drastic change in your strength. If you are lucky, you might even be able to get a glimpse of the legendary law of ascension that has been missing for a long time."

See here.

Jiang Xinghuo narrowed his eyes slightly.

The law of ascension?

Why do I feel like I have heard the name of this law somewhere?
Jiang Xinghuo frowned and thought for a while, and finally remembered that he had found a fragment of the law of ascension in the corpse forest hell under the Ghost Lake.

The Law of Ascension to Immortality was one of the legal authorities held by the Taoist Ancestor in the past. It could allow one to ascend to heaven and transcend all things without being affected by any external forces.

After the Taoist passed away, this law was suspected to have fallen into the hands of 'Shanhejishi Zhenjun'. Later, when he was fighting with the Lord of the Cemetery Forest, a piece of his flesh and blood was torn off, which contained a faint fragment of the law of ascension.

However, this law has a special feature, which is that the holders are able to sense each other.

Therefore, Jiang Xinghuo did not dare to integrate the fragment of the law at the beginning, for fear that Shanhe Jishi Zhenjun would cause trouble for him.

But now according to what Beggar Tongtian said, the law of ascension does not seem to be on Shanhejishi Zhenjun, but hidden in another place. Is it possible? ?

Jiang Xinghuo was skeptical about Beggar Tongtian's words and continued to read the subsequent text content.

"Gai Tongtian seemed to see the doubt in your heart, so he explained to you that although the Ascension Law was owned by Daozu, he stripped the Ascension Law from his body before he passed away and gave it to his most beloved disciple, Jianjun."

"Later, the Sword Master founded a sect in the secular world of Sichuan and Shu, and passed down the Taoist sword immortal cultivation method. He was known as the best in killing and was unparalleled, standing on par with the Taoist thunder method."

"But the good times didn't last long. After the Sword Master founded his sect and passed down his teachings, he received a letter from Dou Mu, so he took his sword and left the mountain. When he came back, he only had half of his body and a broken sword, which contained the incomplete fragments of the law of ascension."

"In order to fight for the ownership of the Ascension Law and the Sword Immortal Sect, the two disciples of the Sword Lord turned against each other. The eldest disciple, the Little Sword Immortal, left the Sword Immortal Sect in anger, took some fragments of the Ascension Law, and left the secular land of Sichuan and Shu, and disappeared."

"Speaking of this, Gai Tongtian took out a map from his arms and said that the place marked on it was the tomb of the little sword fairy."

"You have obtained the map of the Sword Immortal's Tomb."

"You learned from this yellowed map that the tomb of the Little Sword Immortal is actually inside the Extreme Magnetic Mine in the Mining City. This may be related to the Yuanci Sword Sutra that he practiced."

Seeing this, Jiang Xinghuo suddenly remembered the Yuanci sword found on the miner, which was what the other party found in the Jici Mine. Could it be that this sword was a magical weapon that came out of the Sword Immortal's Tomb? ?

"Gai Tongtian gave you the map of the Sword Immortal's Tomb. He doesn't ask for anything else. He only hopes that you can find the token left by Master Dou Mu in the Sword Immortal's Tomb. Then he will definitely give you a generous reward."

Dou Muye’s token?

Jiang Xinghuo looked at the game text. This should be Beggar Tongtian’s purpose.

Although I don't know what it wants to do, the initiative is in my hands. Even if I really find Dou Muye's token in the tomb, it is up to me to give it or not.

"You left Fuchun Teahouse with a map. Where do you plan to go next?"

"Should we stay in Beiping and attend the Lantern Festival? Or should we return to the mining city immediately to participate in the excavation of the ancient tomb?"

Jiang Xinghuo chose the latter without any hesitation. Staying in Peking might trigger more interactive tasks, but the ancient tomb in the mining city only appears once a year. If he missed it, he would have to wait until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month next year. It would be better to explore the ancient tomb first, otherwise it would always be a concern in his mind.

"You activated the shrine's teleportation function. The force of space surged out like a tide, enveloping your body. In a flash, it crossed thousands of mountains and rivers and brought you to the shrine in the mining city."

"A dozen patrol officers were patrolling the city gate. When they saw you suddenly appear, they immediately surrounded you and asked you to show your ID."

"But you don't have anything to prove your identity. What are you going to do next? Are you going to follow these patrol officers obediently? Or are you going to knock out these patrol officers who are in the way?"

Jiang Xinghuo chose the latter very decisively.

"You knocked out these troublesome policemen. Where are you going now?"

"Will you choose to go to the Skyfire Mine, the Earthfire Mine, the Ancient Mountain Mine, or the Extreme Magnetic Mine?"

Four mine maps, choose one of them.

Jiang Xinghuo chose to go to Gushan Mine first.

The most important thing tonight is to explore the ancient tomb first, and then the sword immortal's tomb in the extremely magnetic mine.

As for other mines, there is no need to rush.

"You chose to go to the Ancient Mountain Mine."

"On the way, please wait..."
