My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 604 Good luck takes the lead
Ok?
The blessing from the God of Mountains and Rivers?
Jiang Xinghuo was stunned for a moment.
I don't understand why a text message related to the other party popped up.

I just killed a few monsters, how come such an ancient giant crocodile came out? ?
Could it be that Shanhejishi Zhenjun has also come to Guandong?

Or……

It sensed the fragments of the law of ascension in its body? ?
Jiang Xinghuo remembered that when he was exploring the Cemetery Hell, he obtained a piece of flesh and blood of an unknown creature from the Lord of the Cemetery.

According to the clues given in the game text, the flesh and blood was suspected to have fallen from the body of Shanhe Jishi Zhenjun, and contained a trace of a fragment of the law of ascension. Therefore, he did not dare to fuse the fragment, but instead hid it with the law of burial.

Later, after obtaining the Ascension Law of the 'Little Sword Immortal' in the Northwest Mining City, he integrated all the fragments into his body, and the completeness of the law reached nearly 10%.

How come... now the other party has sensed it? ?
Jiang Xinghuo was puzzled. After killing those monsters, he waited there for a while.

As a result, there was nothing unusual afterwards, no new game text, and no one came to bother him.

It was as if the Mountain and River Sacrifice True Lord had never appeared.

Weird!

Jiang Xinghuo muttered to himself for a while, and seeing that no subsequent plot was triggered, he controlled the character to leave Jiuding Mountain and walked towards Guandong City.

On the way, he did not forget to take out the medicine gourd and drink a sip of it, replenishing all the blood he had lost in the fight with those monsters.

"Continue on the road..."

"You saw many exiles heading here along the way. Among them were some powerful masters, and some were even stronger than you."

"You have received an invitation from the exile Patrolman, who invites you to explore the Dragon Court Ruins. Do you accept?"

"You rejected the invitation of the 'Mountain Ranger', and he showed his disgust towards you and gave you two middle fingers."

Oh, damn!

Jiang Xinghuo was speechless. What kind of quality is this? I sincerely hope you will die once you go in! !
"You have received an invitation from the exile 'Big Pole', who invites you to explore the Dragon Court ruins. Do you accept?"

"You rejected the invitation from 'Big Pole'. He said it was a pity and hoped to have a chance to cooperate next time. He also gave you a fox tail. You gave him a bottle of diluted ambergris in return."

"You've earned it, Black Foxtail."

"Black Fox Tail (Ordinary Material), the tail of a black fox deep in the Greater Khingan Range in Kanto. Carrying it on your body can slightly increase your charm to the opposite sex and make it easier for you to gain their favor."

Tsk, look at this guy, this is the difference, this is called quality!!
"You have received an invitation from the exile 'Incense Burner', who invites you to explore the Dragon Court Ruins. Do you accept it?"

"You rejected the invitation of the Exile's 'Incense Burner', and he spat at you expressionlessly, then took out three incense sticks and bowed to you."

"Your luck is affected by the 'Fortune-Breaking Incense'. You will be extremely unlucky in the next twenty hours."

"You triggered the Golden Rule."

"The golden law in your body sensed the influence of the luck-breaking incense on you and spontaneously eliminated all negative attributes from you."

"The person who burned the incense also suffered a backlash and became unlucky. He accidentally stepped on empty air and fell down the hillside, right into the mouth of a yawning tiger. The tiger excitedly ate a meal of meat and vomited out a few things that it couldn't digest. Do you want to take them and have a look?"

Jiang Xinghuo was delighted when he saw this, thinking, "You deserve this bad luck, kid." He then picked up what the tiger vomited out.

"You used the Five Ghosts Technique to move the things on the ground. After a quick inventory, you found a few small items that suited your taste."

"You have obtained: a box of bad luck incense (excellent), a box of life-damaging incense (excellent), a bag of god and Buddha incense ash (excellent), a stick of good luck incense (rare), and a stick of good fortune incense (excellent)."

These things live up to the name "incense burners". They are basically incense with various functions, and you can tell their general function from the name alone.

"Fortune-breaking Incense (Excellent consumable item). Once lit, it can greatly reduce the opponent's luck for two days. It will automatically become ineffective after two days."

"Life-reducing incense (excellent consumable item). Once lit, it can shorten a person's lifespan. One stick of incense equals one day's lifespan. However, this incense is against the harmony of nature. After using it, if you shorten the lifespan of the other person by a few days, you will suffer a few days of bad luck. At the very least, you will be cursed with bad luck, and at the worst, you will die."

"The ashes of incense and candles offered before the gods and Buddhas (excellent props) have many uses. They can be used to exorcise evil spirits, make elixirs, and act as Feng Shui charms, or to consecrate new statues of gods."

Wow, it really is a panacea. It can be mixed with a little bit of everything. I guess it will be useful if I keep it.

"Lucky incense (rare consumable item), a yellow incense stick that can increase your luck. Once lit, within the next 24 hours, it can greatly increase: your mission trigger rate, the branch options that may be triggered, the probability of exploring the map to obtain items, the probability of various unexpected events, and the probability of discovering hidden events."

Seeing the power of this lucky incense, Jiang Xinghuo's eyes suddenly lit up and he thought to himself that this was a good thing.

If it can be mass-produced, it will be tantamount to a BUG artifact in the exploration process of the game.

In particular, the abilities of Hongyunxiang cover almost all the passive attributes that can be triggered by the player.

This is difficult to obtain in the secular world.

"You have triggered the Tathagata's innate ability."

"You want to analyze the recipe of Hongyun Incense through the innate vision of Tathagata."

"Analysis in progress, please wait..."

Jiang Xinghuo waited for about five minutes before a new game text prompt message came from the game.

"You have successfully cracked the recipe for making the Fortune Incense."

"Materials required for the recipe: ..."

Jiang Xinghuo looked at the materials needed to make Hongyun Incense, and most of them could be bought at the niche shop.

There is only one material that is hard to find. Since he entered the game, he has never found this kind of raw material in the niche shop.

“Qilin blood (rare material). Qilin is born as an auspicious beast in the secular world. The blood flowing in its body naturally contains auspicious energy, which can greatly improve your destiny and luck.”

This Qilin blood is the key ingredient of "Hongyunxiang".

The game text also explains this very clearly. There may be substitutes for other ingredients, but Qilin blood is the only indispensable thing.

Jiang Xinghuo was a little confused for a moment, but then he thought, he had mastered the Qilin Incarnation Technique among the Eight Hundred Qilin Techniques, which could perfectly replicate the physical qualities of a Qilin. He wondered if his own blood would work? ?

Thinking of this, Jiang Xinghuo first went to the niche shop to buy some materials, and then performed the Qilin Incarnation Technique.

Immediately, a surge of power quickly spread throughout his body. Jiang Xinghuo only felt that his magic power had increased by more than one level. Black scales appeared on the surface of his skin, and two unicorn horns grew on both sides of his forehead. His strength also increased several times on the original basis.

"Is this the Qilin technique?"

Jiang Xinghuo felt the change in power in his body and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Then he cut his arm and left some blood in the bottle.

He also took a special look. The color of the blood did not seem unusual at first glance, but if he looked closely, he would find that there was a faint golden light mixed in the blood.

The Tathagata's divine light flashed in the small pupil of the right eye, and relevant information soon appeared on the retina.

“Qilin blood·fake (excellent material), it is the blood of other creatures with Qilin bloodline. After the transformation of Qilin technique, it contains a trace of Qilin’s true meaning and has some of the effects of Qilin blood. Although it cannot bring people back to life, it can delay pain.” Seeing the specific information emerging on the Tathagata storehouse, Jiang Xinghuo was not sure whether his blood was real Qilin blood or not, and he didn’t know whether it could be used to make Hongyun Incense. He could only try it first.

Five minutes later.

The effect of the Qilin technique has passed.

Jiang Xinghuo's body returned to its normal form, but he felt a sense of emptiness in his body, as if all his strength had been drained away.

Finally, he took out the medicine gourd and took a sip, only then did he recover the energy he had consumed.

After doing all this, Jiang Xinghuo chose to submit all his blood and the materials he bought at the niche shop.

"Testing, please wait..."

"Testing completed."

"Do you want to prepare the Fortune Incense according to the recipe immediately?"

Done! !
Jiang Xinghuo clenched his fist excitedly. His blood could really replace Qilin blood, so there was nothing to hesitate about.

"You chose to make good fortune incense."

"In progress..."

“It is estimated that the production can be completed in about five hours.”

After all, it is an item of rare quality, and it cannot be made easily. Now that the problem of Qilin blood has been solved, all we have to do next is wait.

Jiang Xinghuo looked at the last prop again.

"The incense stick that can predict bad luck (excellent consumable item) is an incense stick that can predict bad luck. After it is lit, the shape of the smoke emitted can be used to determine the luck of the person who lit it today.

Jiang Xinghuo had no interest in this incense. It was similar to his divination method, but it was better than nothing. He would use it when he had the chance in the future.

At this point, all the things obtained from the player named "Burning Incense Man" have been counted.

This is just a small episode that happened in the middle and has no impact on the subsequent development of the plot.

Continue on your way.

Ten minutes later.

New game text pops up.

"You have arrived, Kanto Castle."

"Where are you planning to go next?"

The following is a list of sub-maps within Kanto Castle, all of which can be visited and explored now.

But Jiang Xinghuo did not plan to go to these places. Instead, he opened the magic bag and found the map of Lei Ze.

"Do you want to use this map?"

When this Lei Ze map was first obtained, it was in a gray and unselectable form, but this morning, Jiang Xinghuo suddenly found that this map could be used. He guessed that maybe because Jingzhe was approaching, this map was also awakened by some force.

"You have used the Razer Map."

"Unfold this map, and it will quickly show your current location, and will also indicate the shortest path to Lei Ze."

"However, since there is still some time before Jingzhe, the path shown on this map is incomplete, and only the first half of the route is shown."

"The second half of the route will gradually appear on the map as time goes by, until the day of Jingzhe arrives, when all the maps will appear completely."

"Do you want to follow the route marked on the map immediately?"

Jiang Xinghuo chose yes without even thinking about it, but before actually leaving Guandong City, he went to the shrine shop in Bafang Linglou and bought a Lost Shrine.

As long as he integrates the Lost Shrine into Lei Ze, he can leave Lei Ze and go to the City of Origin. After coming out of the City of Origin, he can be teleported to Lei Ze through the shrine to explore.

In this way, even if the maps on both sides are developed, there is no need to waste time waiting for another year.

Jiang Xinghuo left the game on while traveling, following the instructions on the map, walking and stopping from time to time. Occasionally, some unexpected plots would be triggered, and Jiang Xinghuo would complete the tasks by the way.

Two days passed in a blink of an eye.

late at night.

Jiang Xinghuo sat on the sofa quietly waiting for the time to come. There were five minutes left until the next day, which was also the early morning of the Waking of Insects.

The last section of the map is hidden in the fog and can only be opened on the day of Jingzhe.

During these two days, Jiang Xinghuo triggered many tasks while traveling, but basically gained nothing. The rewards for the tasks were mostly ordinary materials and props.

The only valuable thing was a piece of Longtan inkstone obtained from a sour Confucian scholar.

"Longtan Inkstone (excellent item). After using it, one can learn the languages, cultures and communication methods of all races in the secular world without any instruction, and can also write excellent cursive script."

Jiang Xinghuo actually tried it, and he found that after getting used to this prop, he could really write good cursive script.

You have to know that he had never been exposed to the relevant knowledge before. Let alone cursive writing, even his handwriting with a fountain pen is not very good.

In addition, he suddenly became able to understand the languages ​​of other ethnic groups on Earth. No matter how fast the other person spoke, he could understand the meaning of the words, as if he had a multi-functional translator.

This item doesn't do much to improve your strength, but it can be very useful in some critical situations.

There are many kinds of monsters and demons in the secular world, and their languages ​​are different. If you encounter monsters and demons of a different race, you can communicate with them through this Longtan Moyan.

Otherwise, if you don’t understand anything, it’s easy to miss some tasks.

While Jiang Xinghuo was thinking about it, the clock hands on the wall passed 12 o'clock and it was the early morning of the next day.

At the same time, new text message prompts came from the game.

"All Lei Ze maps have been unlocked."

"Do you want to continue along the route marked on the map?"

Today is the last day. The exam will be over tomorrow. I can be lazy now.
