My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 550 Yangwu Bag

Jiang Xinghuo waited for almost five minutes in reality before a prompt message indicating that he had arrived at the destination came from the game.

"You have arrived at the Skyfire Mine."

"The Skyfire Mine. Countless years ago, nine Skyfires descended upon the earth. One of the Skyfire fragments fell into the mine and merged with the earth veins to form this mine."

"In the beginning, the Skyfire fragments could affect only a few mines. However, as time went on, the power of the Skyfire gradually spread, affecting the surrounding mineral veins, resulting in more and more Skyfire mines."

"Moreover, since this ore has been calcined by heavenly fire, the impurities inside have long been completely refined, making it the best material for forging weapons."

"It is said that high-quality Skyfire Ore can be sold at more than twice the normal price on the black market."

"The inspector of the police station quickly rushed over with a large group of people according to the location that the spies had found in advance. But when they got there, they found that the mine was in a mess. The ground was full of broken limbs and blood. From the fragments of clothing and costumes left, it can be seen that they were the new police officers who joined the police station. However, they have all become corpses at this time. The killer monk disappeared without a trace. No one knows where he went."

Jiang Xinghuo looked at the game text and thought that he died too quickly. Was it because the killer monk was too strong, or was it because these people were too weak? ?
How come they were all killed in just a few minutes? Not even a single one was left alive! !

While Jiang Xinghuo was pondering, the subsequent plot of the game also progressed.

"When the inspector of the police station saw the marks on the ground, his face turned very ugly. He took out a compass from his pocket and immediately led his men to the southeast."

"You have triggered the map of the Skyfire Mine."

"You found that the place where the inspector of the patrol station led his men was the direction where the fragments of the skyfire fell. Do you want to follow them to see what they want to do? Or do you want to leave the patrol team and act alone?"

This time, the game gives two options: follow the main force or leave the team and act alone.

Jiang Xinghuo naturally would not choose the latter. With so many people stepping on the trail to take precautions for him, why bother looking for clues by himself?

Although it is a bit unkind to do so, what does it have to do with him? He is not a saint. All he wants is to maximize his gains and rewards with the least loss. Under this premise, he doesn't mind doing some good things to improve his reputation in the secular world.

Of course, the premise is that it does not cause any harm to yourself that is of no benefit.

If there are rewards or clues that can trigger subsequent plot lines, that would be another story.

In short, the right of interpretation belongs to you.

"You quietly pushed yourself behind everyone, pretending to be exhausted. You didn't leave the entire patrol team, but you kept a clear distance from them."

"This way, if something does happen, you can respond immediately, and you can also use the patrol officers in front to block the danger."

Looking at the content of the game text, Jiang Xinghuo couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, thinking, he was really smart.

"Soon, you followed the patrol team to the depths of the Skyfire Mine, and saw caves full of burning flames. Even in the heavy rain, the flames would not go out. If you want to extinguish the flames, you have to find the Skyfire fragments first."

"That is the source of all the fire in the entire mine, and it is also the foundation of the mine. Many people have tried to find the whereabouts of that fragment, but in the end they found nothing. This has led to a very embarrassing situation. Everyone knows that the skyfire fragment is hidden under the mine, but no one can find the meteorite."

"At this moment, you suddenly heard a noise coming from the front, it seems that someone is fighting fiercely, do you want to go over and take a look?"

Jiang Xinghuo chose no. It was better not to watch this excitement. He guessed that someone had encountered the killer monk. There were only three possible results: either both died, or the killer monk won, or that person won.

However, Jiang Xinghuo hoped that the result would be mutual destruction, so that he could reap the benefits without much effort.

While Jiang Xinghuo was thinking about good things, some changes suddenly appeared in the game text.

"Because you are a newcomer who just joined the police station today and are still in the apprenticeship stage, the inspector of the police station gave you a chance to make merit. He ordered you to go to the front to see what happened. If you can come back alive and well, you will be promoted to a regular officer and become a patrolman of the Mining City Police Station."

"The other patrol officers are also staring at you covetously, as if they will rush over and beat you to death if you dare to show your unwillingness."

Ok?
Okay!

Bullying the newcomers, huh?

If you come back alive and safe, you will be rewarded and promoted. But what if you can't come back alive or safe? ?
A bunch of blind bastards, their calculations are clanging loudly! !

"What are you going to choose now?"

"Will you choose to follow the orders of the detective and sneak over to see what's going on, or will you just do it yourself and kill these bullies first?"

When Jiang Xinghuo saw the options given in the text, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he thought to himself, since you are not human, don't blame me for being rude, just destroy yourself together!

"You chose to take direct action."

"You smashed the inspector's head with your dragon-catching hand, and dug out his heart as well, while the inspector's eyes were filled with anger, panic, surprise, and a variety of other emotions."

"You have obtained the Three-Aperture Exquisite Heart."

You have obtained, Incense +500."

"Three-aperture exquisite heart (excellent material), the heart has three apertures, which can be connected to the eyes. The double apertures of the eyes can see through some simple illusions, and can sense the malice of others towards oneself at a close distance."

"When the detective of the Mining City Police Station was young, he had a chance encounter. He once obtained a three-aperture exquisite heart in a mine, and integrated it with his own organs, gaining sensory abilities beyond ordinary people."

"Although it sensed your murderous intent, its strength could not keep up. It could only watch you kill yourself."

"Do you want to touch the body of the inspector of the police station?"

Jiang Xinghuo chose yes, controlled the character to search the other person's body, and actually found something.

"You have obtained a brass key (common), a box gun (common), a brass revolver (common), two thunderbolt powder shells (excellent), and a high-strength neurotoxin (rare)."

"Brass key (common item), the key to the detective's home in the Mining City Police Station. It can open his family's ancestral stone heart lock. It is located in the third from the bottom of Xiliu Lane on East Street."

"Box gun (common item), firearm, can hold seven rounds, effective killing distance is 30 meters, maximum killing distance is 50 meters, has a small chance of jamming, and also has a chance of exploding in extreme environments."

"Brass revolver (common item), firearm, can hold ten rounds, effective killing distance 20 meters, maximum killing distance 50 meters, can fire hundreds of times continuously, has a chance of jamming in extreme conditions."

"Thunderbolt Gunpowder Bullet (Excellent Consumable Item), Jiangnan Thunderbolt Hall's unique firearm, developed by combining the advantages of concealed weapons and firearms, with an effective killing coverage radius of twelve meters, but the explosion range does not distinguish between enemy and friend, so you need to be careful when using it to avoid accidentally injuring yourself."

Looking at the description of the Thunderbolt Gunpowder Bomb, Jiang Xinghuo felt that the power of this thing seemed to be even stronger than modern grenades.

He didn't know much about military weapons, but the effective killing radius of a grenade shouldn't be as wide as a dozen meters, right? ?

As for the box gun and brass revolver, Jiang Xinghuo was not very interested in them. He originally wanted to sell them in the niche shop, but then he thought that they were two ordinary props and would probably not be sold at a good price. So he simply kept them and prepared them as antique ornaments. He would just deal with them simply when the time came. Maybe they would be useful in the future.

Anyway, there are a lot of these models sold on shopping websites, so you don’t have to worry about an uncle coming to your house to check your water meter.

Finally, there is one high-strength neurotoxin left.

"High-strength neurotoxin (rare consumable item), a high-strength neurotoxin that can be dissolved in the air. After inhalation, the nerve center will be paralyzed quickly, and various hallucinations will appear in front of the eyes."

"This high-strength neurotoxin was purchased by the detective of the police station at a high price, specifically to deal with the Taoist monk killer. Unexpectedly, he died before he could accomplish his mission. All these things have been given to you for nothing. It can be said that it is fate and time."

"You killed the chief of police station in front of everyone, and intimidated all the other policemen. Several of the chief's cronies wanted to shoot, but they were killed by the palm thunder before the safety was released."

"The remaining patrol officers were frightened into silence. They thought you were a newcomer who was easy to bully, but they didn't expect that you would lead a hungry tiger. Not only did they not gain any benefit from you, but they also lost their lives."

"What are you going to do now??"

"Would you choose to cut the grass and root out the trouble forever, killing all the patrol officers on the spot, or order them to step on the minefield and find out the situation ahead?"

The answer to this question is obvious. I believe that anyone with a normal brain will know what to choose.

"Order these patrol officers to go to the place where the fight is taking place ahead to check the situation, and promise that if they can come back alive, you will let everyone leave here safely. Otherwise, kill them all."

"Under your coercion and inducement, these policemen had no choice but to bravely move forward. A few of them deliberately slowed down and walked behind, and were directly struck into charcoal by the thunderbolt you brought down. The rest dared not to take it easy and sped up to run forward."

Jiang Xinghuo actually had no intention of doing anything to these patrolmen, but he just didn't want to let them go so easily. It was because these blind guys had treated him as a sucker, so it was already very polite of him not to kill him directly. Anyway, he had no intention of letting these walking incense bags go completely.

"You followed these patrol officers and came to the source of the sound in front. You saw a Taoist priest wearing a blood-stained robe fighting with a patrol officer who looked like a stone man."

"You have discovered the killing monk."

"You have discovered it, Stone Monk."

"You stand on a high place and watch the battle below. You can see that both sides are fighting back and forth. It seems that they are evenly matched. But if you look closely, you will find that the Stone Monk is at a disadvantage. It's just that his body of stone can withstand the attacks of the Killing Monk Taoist. He uses the fighting method of exchanging injuries with the Killing Monk Taoist."

"At this time, the Taoist monk killer also discovered the patrol officers and let out a scream like the howling of ghosts and wolves. The blood in the patrol officers' bodies seemed to be sucked out of their bodies, and they turned into hideous skulls and flew towards the stubborn stone monk not far away."

"And those patrol officers who had most of their blood drained out also curled up on the ground like mummies. Death was only a matter of time."

"What are you going to do next?"

"Do you intend to watch these patrol officers die in agony, or help them out of their agony, a relatively dignified way to die?"

Jiang Xinghuo took a look and sighed. He thought, he is a kind-hearted person who cannot bear to see others suffer. He decided to help them get rid of their suffering as soon as possible.

Mr. Jiang chose to make the move with a smile, and soon a notification of a large sum of incense donations came into the game.

"You have obtained, Incense +3000."

"You helped all the patrolmen escape the pain of dying. Now, will you help these comrades you just met to get revenge?" The plot of the game is still moving forward, and the outcome between the Stubborn Stone Monk and the Killing Monk Taoist is about to be decided.

"You have triggered the Tathagata's talent."

"You discovered that the methods used by the Taoist monk killer are from the same source as your Five Ghost Technique, but the sophistication is much higher. Many of the methods are new to you. In particular, after drawing blood from the patrol officers, the Five Ghost Soul Stealing Technique he used caused serious damage to the stubborn stone monk."

"The stone body of the Stubborn Stone Monk also had a large number of tiny cracks on it. It looked like broken porcelain, as if it could explode at any time."

"Moreover, the Stubborn Stone Monk is now in a dilemma. He wants to escape but cannot escape the restraints of the Five Ghosts Technique. He wants to fight desperately but cannot touch the Killing Monk Taoist."

"Killing the Taoist monk is like flying a kite. He continuously attacks the stubborn stone monk with magic from a distance."

"Do you want to help the Stone Monk out of his predicament immediately?"

Jiang Xinghuo thought about it and chose no. Although this stubborn monk was at a disadvantage, it was obvious that he had not reached the end of his rope yet.

If I help now, the other party will most likely flee, leaving the killer monk to me to deal with. It is better to wait a while. After these two people are both destroyed and injured, it will not be too late for me to take action and reap the benefits.

Jiang Xinghuo had his own little plan. He ignored the options given in the game text and just waited for the two of them to fight to the death.

Half an hour later.

There has been new development in the battle situation in the game.

"The Stone Monk's injuries became more and more serious, and there were more and more cracks on his body. He was about to die under the magic of the killer monk. Suddenly, the Stone Monk's face showed great anger, and a dazzling golden light emanated from his body."

“But it was instantly gathered within his body. He immediately ignored his own injuries and rushed forward to confront the killer monk’s Five Ghost Techniques. Even though his chest was completely shattered, he did not retreat a single step. He approached like a violent storm and held the killer monk’s body tightly in his arms.”

"At the same time, the golden light that was ready to burst out in its body bloomed like the sun, completely submerging its own figure and the killer monk's figure."

"You used the vision of Tathagata to observe the battlefield below. The aura of the Stubborn Stone Monk was like ice and snow under the scorching sun. It disappeared in an instant, leaving only a broken stone body full of cracks lying on the ground."

"The killer monk is also in tatters, and has turned into a piece of charcoal. Although he is still breathing, he is like a candle in the wind, and may be completely extinguished at any time."

"But just as you were about to go down to pick up the peaches, you discovered that another figure appeared in the dark and rushed towards the killer monk lying on the ground."

Ok?
Dare to steal my business?
Jiang Xinghuo raised his eyebrows, thinking, I have been waiting in secret for so long, and you dare to steal my love? !
Therefore, he immediately controlled the game character to rush down and started the dragon vein shrinking earth method in the dragon raising technique.

"You manipulated the power of the dragon vein hidden under the mine and used the method of shrinking the earth in the dragon-raising technique. In an instant, you moved this uninvited guest a hundred meters away and trapped half of his body in the ground. He couldn't break free in a short time."

"What are your options next?"

"Are you going to kill the trapped person first? Or do you choose to deal with the killer monk first?"

Jiang Xinghuo didn't think too much about it and chose the latter without hesitation, controlling the game character to kill the monk.

"You have killed the monks and Taoists."

"You have obtained, Incense +1000."

"You have obtained the body of the monk killer."

"You have obtained the remains of the Stone Monk."

Looking at the prompts in the game text, Jiang Xinghuo finally felt relieved. He finally got it, and it was worth it for him to wait for so long.

"What are you going to do next?"

"Will you choose to follow the map of the Skyfire Mine to find the Skyfire fragment hidden here? Or will you first kill the person trapped by the Dragon Raising Technique?"

Jiang Xinghuo chose the latter. No matter how small a mosquito leg is, it is still meat. It would be good to get some incense from the other party, but he absolutely cannot let it go.

"You came to that person. He claimed to be the guardian of the Natural Disaster Sect and the chief steward of the City Lord's Mansion. He came here on the orders of the City Lord. He wanted to wait until the Stubborn Stone Monk and the Killing Monk Taoist were both injured before taking them both back."

"But I didn't expect you to interfere. If you can hand over the bodies of the monks and Taoist priests who killed them, then we can forgive this matter and just pretend it never happened."

"You can also go to the City Lord's Mansion to receive a large reward, or even be promoted to the chief inspector of the police station, so do you want to hand over the body of the killer Taoist?"

Looking at the two options on the screen, Jiang Xinghuo thought about it and finally decided not to hand over the things.

The reason was very simple. If he handed over the things, the other party would most likely turn against him. With his current strength, he couldn't beat the Lord of the Mining City. Wouldn't he be manipulated by others at will? ?
As for becoming the chief inspector of the police station, that's even more ridiculous. Killing you can solve all the problems, so why should I give you so many good things? !

"You rejected the offer made by this natural disaster guardian, and instead used your dragon-catching hand to absorb all of his energy."

"You have killed the Guardian of Natural Disaster."

"You gained incense +400."

"What are your plans next?"

"Would you like to find a safe place to count your harvest, or leave the Skyfire Mine immediately and come back after the storm has passed?"

"You found an abandoned mine and sealed the entrance tightly so that no light could penetrate. Then you lit a torch inside the mine and began to count your harvest tonight."

"You first checked the broken body of the stubborn stone monk, and used the vision talent of Tathagata to spy on the other party's specific information."

"The Stubborn Stone Monk has practiced Taoism for 360 years. He was originally a piece of stone in a Buddhist temple. As he was immersed in Buddhism for many years, he gained wisdom. Later, he recited Buddhist scriptures and was enlightened by the Arhat monk. He turned into a human form and called himself the Stubborn Stone Monk. He became the guardian of the temple. He is of a very high generation and has attained the status of Arhat. He is also called the Stubborn Stone Arhat."

"Later, the Taoist monk who killed monks was possessed by the thought of killing and started killing people in Fujian and Guangdong. The temple where the stubborn monk was was not spared. All 300 monks in the temple turned into mummies and died."

"The stubborn monk was not in the temple at the time. When he came back and learned about this, he cremated all the monks in the temple and set out alone to find the Taoist who killed the monk."

"After many years, it got the news of the killer monk, and came to the mining city. It disguised itself as a patrol officer and found the killer's whereabouts. In the end, it used the Buddhist method of Nirvana to perish together with the killer."

"After a careful exploration and search, you found a piece of Sumeru Stone inside the remains of the Stubborn Stone Monk. Do you want to peel it off from the body?"

"You have obtained the Sumeru Stone."

"Sumeru Stone (rare item). The stubborn monk used his own body as the material and combined it with the true meaning of the Buddhist Sumeru containing a mustard seed to refine his own body into a stone. It can be used as a storage item or as a magic weapon to smash the enemy."

"Be careful, if you want to use this stone to cause damage to the enemy, you must use a unique method to activate it, and it consumes a lot of mana. With the Arhat cultivation level of the stubborn stone monk, he can only use it three times in a row."

"You tried to open this Xumi Stone, but found that there were restrictions on it. It requires pure Buddhist magic power to open it."

"You tried to use the Five Ghosts Technique to move it through the air, but due to the difference between the two practices, you were still unable to open the restriction on this Sumeru Stone."

Pity……

Jiang Xinghuo felt a little sad in his heart. The treasure was right in front of him, but he couldn't open it. It seemed that if he wanted to open the restriction of this Sumeru Stone, he had to start from the Shifang Zen Forest.

The game text states clearly that it must be opened with the power of the exoteric Buddhism. If the power of the esoteric Buddhism is not enough, then there is no better way.

Afterwards, Jiang Xinghuo looked at the bodies of the monks and Taoist priests who had been killed. This was the main goal of his operation. The other things were just bonuses.

"You examined the bodies of the monks and Taoist priests who killed them, and found some things on the remains of the bodies."

"You have obtained: a tattered blood-stained Taoist robe (junk), a bald lightning-struck jujube wood whisk (junk), and a bag made of unknown material (excellent)."

"A tattered blood-stained robe (a scrap item), a robe made by the monk killer himself. Although the craftsmanship is not very sophisticated, the material is solid, so it can be considered a high-quality item. However, after being burned by the Great Nirvana Method of the stubborn stone monk, the material has lost all its spirituality and is worthless to repair, but it may be possible to decompose it again."

"Bald Lightning-Struck Jujube Wood Whisk (a scrap item). This is a whisk made by the Taoist monk Sha Seng. After being burned by the Great Nirvana Technique, the silver deer-tail thread on it has been burned away, leaving only a bare lightning-struck jujube wood handle. This can be used as a material to strengthen other items."

"A bag of unknown material (excellent item), obtained by the killer monk in a cave in Lushan Mountain. The material is unknown, but it is not afraid of fire, lightning, knife, or axe. It can only be opened with the special hand gestures above."

"You have triggered the Tathagata's talent."

"You have seen the true secret hidden beneath the surface of this bag through the small pupil of your right eye."

"You have discovered it, Yangwu Bag."

"Yangwu Bag (special item), the Taoist master of Lushan absorbed the essence of Taoism and Confucianism, and then cut off the skin of many mountain and river gods in the secular world, smelted them into one, and refined it for 7749 days to make a magic tool. It is not only a simple storage tool, but also can absorb the great energy of heaven and earth when carried with it to warm the magic tools in the storage bag and the magic power of the carrier, so that it can develop a great and righteous energy that will keep away all evil."

"Please note that every time the Yangwu Bag changes its owner, the accumulated Haoran Qi will dissipate, and the new owner needs to start from scratch before it can be used freely."

"Do you want to follow the above hand gestures to open this Yangwu bag?"

Jiang Xinghuo read the text again and thought that this was a top-notch boss, as could be seen from the materials used in this Yangwu bag.

Otherwise, those great gods of mountains and rivers in the secular world couldn't have voluntarily donated their skin, right? ?

Even if it is voluntary,
I guess it was forced voluntary.

After all, giving things to others honestly and having others kill you before giving things to them are two completely different concepts. Although the results are the same, the processes are completely different.

"You followed the hand gestures drawn on the bag and performed them from beginning to end. The dusty Yangwu bag suddenly opened, and the corresponding information also appeared in your mind."

"According to the information in my mind, if you want to become the new owner of the Yangwu Bag, you either have to wait until the old owner dies and open the Yangwu Bag according to the hand gestures, or the old owner will voluntarily give up the Yangwu Bag. No other means can affect the Yangwu Bag."
