My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 650 No. 81 Chaonei Street

Night watchman?
A follower of Shanhejishi Zhenjun?
Jiang Xinghuo was slightly startled. How was this related to Shanhe Jishi Zhenjun?
Could it be that Chaoyangmen Street disappeared from the secular world because of the manipulation of Shanhejishi Zhenjun?
Otherwise, how could the other party's believers appear here.

While Jiang Xinghuo was thinking about it, the night watchmen in the game had already attacked him.

"You were attacked by the night watchmen."

"Be careful, these night watchmen have been enlightened by the True Lord of Mountains and Rivers, and have a certain immunity to magical attacks."

Spell immunity?

Then we can only use physical attacks.

"You activated the passive effect of the Power Totem."

"You twisted off a night watchman's head with your bare hands, and smashed another night watchman's chest with your bare hands."

"You have killed the night watchman +2."

"You have obtained, Incense +500."

"The night watchman activated the Yin God Totem tattoo on his body, and his physical fitness and various ability attributes were greatly improved."

"You were besieged by the night watchmen."

"You unfolded the Great Void Dharma Realm given by Taoist Yuzui, and transformed the space in the opium den into a Dharma Realm Cave Heaven. After a somewhat strenuous battle, you killed most of the night watchmen, leaving only two alive whose limbs you broke."

"You have killed the night watchman, incense +300."

"You have killed the night watchman, incense +300."

"Incense +300, incense +300, incense +300..."

"You were also badly beaten by the Night Watchman..."

“Life force is draining away fast.”

Jiang Xinghuo took a look and found that after killing these night watchmen, he had obtained nearly 5000 incense sticks in total.

Although their attributes and powers are improved after activating the Yin Shen Tattoo, the benefits of killing them are also improved.

Moreover, the strength of these night watchmen after the upgrade is also good. Although it is a bit strenuous, they can still cope with it. One life in exchange for so much incense is a sure-win deal.

"Your life force is drained away."

"You are dead."

"Do you want to use a scapegoat to come back to life here?"

"You used a scapegoat."

Jiang Xinghuo used a scapegoat to come back to life, and all the night watchmen became his income, leaving only two alive to gather information.

"You learned from the two night watchmen that they were all residents of Chaoyang Street. After the Lord of the Secular World fell, the True Lord of Mountains and Rivers separated this street from reality and turned all the citizens on this street into night watchmen."

"They come out every night to patrol this street. If there are outsiders who accidentally enter this place, they will kill them and take them to the Shanhe Temple at the end of the street to worship their master, Shanhe Jishi Zhenjun."

"You have obtained the clue of Shanhe Temple."

"The Mountain and River Temple is a place of worship built by the followers of the Mountain and River Sacrifice True Lord for him. The Mountain and River Sacrifice True Lord will occasionally send down his True Lord power, or some treasures and magical instruments to bless his followers."

"You learned the exact location of the Shanhe Temple from these two night watchmen."

"You have obtained the map of Shanhe Temple."

"And you also learned the secrets hidden in another street from these two night watchmen."

"According to these two night watchmen, that street was originally controlled by the Mountain and River Sacrifice True Lord, but later he gave it to the Ten Thousand Temples True Lord. In other words, these two streets are controlled by these two strong men respectively."

Jiang Xinghuo finally understood that if he had chosen the brightly lit fork in the road, the people he would have met now would be the followers of Wan Miao Zhenjun.

However, he was not interested in the evil magic and sorcery of the Lord of Ten Thousand Temples, so he did not feel too disappointed. Now he just hoped that there would be tasks or clues in the Mountain and River Temple that would surprise him.

"What are you going to do with these two night watchmen next? Will you choose to let them go, or kill them cleanly?"

"You have killed the night watchman +2."

"You have gained incense, +600."

Jiang Xinghuo did not let the two night watchmen go. He had died at their hands twice, so how could he let them go so easily? It would be simpler to kill them in exchange for incense.

"What are you going to choose now?"

"Would you like to continue exploring deeper into the inner streets? Or would you like to wait until the sun comes out tomorrow morning to explore more?"

"You chose to continue exploring deeper into the inner streets."

Jiang Xinghuo was not in a hurry to go to Shanhe Temple immediately. He just controlled the character to walk forward slowly, and the progress of the game was always in a semi-idle state.

Until the next afternoon.

Half past three.

When Jiang Xinghuo had some free time, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket and logged into his game account.

New text messages popped up on the computer immediately.

"You are now outside the mansion at No. 81 Chaonei Street. Do you want to go inside and take a look?"

"No. 81 Chaonei Street. This house was already a famous haunted house during the reign of the Lord of the Secular World. Countless strange things happened here."

"It is said that this was once the residence of General Qinglong, one of the eight generals under the Lord of the Secular World. In order to consolidate the rule of the Lord of the Secular World, he fought wars in the south and the north and made great contributions. He once led a large army to overseas expeditions to eliminate rebellious princes. Three thousand water dragon soldiers defeated a hundred thousand enemy troops."

"But just as he was returning to the capital, General Qinglong was seduced by the ancient god of the sea and fell into confusion. Although he cleared the ancient god's whispers with his strong willpower, he also left behind a root of disaster that was difficult to control."

"That was when General Qinglong was in his later years. He suddenly heard the ancient god's whispers again in his dream, and fell into confusion. In his confusion, he killed all his family members. After waking up, General Qinglong felt that he had committed a serious sin and did not want to be controlled and bewitched by the ancient god again, so he cut his own throat with a sword to apologize for his sin, and fell into the underworld with his family members who were killed by it."

"Since then, strange things have happened frequently at No. 81 Chaonei Street. People often hear fighting sounds coming from the courtyard at night, as well as shrill screams and the crazy roar of General Qinglong."

"But when someone pushes the door and goes in, the sound disappears without a trace, and those who go in will either get seriously ill or their entire family will die tragically. There are very few exceptions."

"In order to avoid unnecessary casualties, the Lord of the Secular World ordered that No. 81 Chaonei Street be sealed off and no one is allowed to enter without permission."

"Now, this haunted house appears in front of you. Do you want to go in and take a look?" After reading the description and description of the game text, Jiang Xinghuo did not think it was as complicated as he thought, and directly controlled the character to enter the house.

The worst outcome would be death in there, which was no big deal. His number of resurrections today had not been used up yet. Even if he couldn't completely uncover the secrets of this house, he could at least find out most of it and know what was going on inside.

"You entered No. 81 Chaonei Street."

"The cold air immediately crawls towards you along the ground, like invisible tentacles, giving you a sticky illusion. You can even smell the salty smell of seawater in the air."

"Do you want to keep going?"

Jiang Xinghuo still chose yes and did not retreat and leave, but the text that appeared afterwards was somewhat beyond his expectations.

“You chose to move on.”

"Your body suddenly lost support and fell to the ground."

what?
what happened?

Jiang Xinghuo was stunned.

"You found that your lower body had disappeared without a trace, and your internal organs flowed out of the wound and piled on the ground. Lord of the Secular World, this is really terrible. You shouldn't have been so careless and lost your vigilance, which led to you becoming like this."

"It's a good thing you didn't feel too much pain, because you will soon lose the ability to gain this sense."

"You passed out due to excessive blood loss."

"You are dead."

Damn, this death was too sudden!
Jiang Xinghuo was a little confused. What was going on? Let’s not talk about how I died. The key is that you tell me who killed me! ?
How come the lower half of the body is gone!

How could he die so tragically?

Jiang Xinghuo read the text twice again but found no problems. The text did not mention any living creatures appearing.

This is really a crooked way of doing things.

Jiang Xinghuo, unwilling to believe in evil, activated the scapegoat and came back to life in the house at No. 81 Chaonei Street.

But just a few steps out, the same text popped up again.

"The sticky, salty air lingered around you, and you fell to the ground again. Your intestines and stomach were all over the floor. The severe pain made you very sober. Before you lost consciousness, you found some traces of dragging on the ground, but before you could investigate carefully, your consciousness was swallowed by darkness due to excessive blood loss."

"You are dead."

Dead again!
This time, Jiang Xinghuo did not rush to revive and check again, but read the last part of the game text twice.

Sticky, salty air.

Drag trace.

These two key points should be the key. Thinking about what happened to General Qinglong at that time, Jiang Xinghuo gradually had a guess in his mind.

Could it be that there are some invisible strange creatures wandering around in this mansion?
That's the thing that killed me twice in a row?
Jiang Xinghuo felt more and more that this was possible, so after using the scapegoat to resurrect, he immediately opened the skill panel, found the Six-Day Ghost Eye, and clicked to use it.

"You activated the Six Heavens Demon Eye."

"You used your gifted vision of the Six Heavens Demonic Eyes to observe this house, and finally discovered the secrets and mysteries hidden here."

"You see countless sticky tentacles wriggling and winding in the courtyard, covering all the surrounding buildings and objects. The salty and fishy smell you smell comes from these tentacles."

"One of the tentacles is wriggling at your feet. The mouthparts at the end are full of sharp teeth, and you can vaguely see traces of flesh and blood."

"You have discovered it, Hai Taisui."

"Hai Tai Sui is a monster born in the deep sea. It is said to be the product of the combination of the essence of the ancient gods in the sea when they were sleeping and the creatures in the sea. In a sense, Hai Tai Sui can be regarded as the offspring of those ancient gods."

"You have discovered the culprit who killed you twice. It is this sea Tai Sui covered with tentacles. It hides its body in the void. You can only see it from a unique perspective."

"Hai Tai Sui also seemed to sense that you had discovered it, and the sharp mouthparts on its tentacles quickly opened and bit towards your body."

"This time, you were already on guard and prepared, so you easily dodged Hai Tai Sui's attack, and took out the Dragon King's Dao Soldier, wrapped in the power of the Red Lotus Karma Fire, and nailed the Hai Tai Sui tentacle to the ground."

"The Red Lotus Karma Fire spread rapidly, and instantly enveloped the body of the Sea Tai Sui. As the Red Lotus Karma Fire used sin as fuel to burn, the Sea Tai Sui's body only twitched once, and then there was no reaction. The other Sea Tai Sui also retreated to a distance, not daring to get close to you any more."

"You have killed Hai Taisui."

"Because Hai Tai Sui is a species inspired by the blood of the ancient gods, there is no power of incense in its body, but its corpse can be used as the best material for refining elixirs or forging equipment."

"You have obtained the body of Hai Taisui."

"You found something on Hai Taisui's body. After inspection, you found that it was a broken finger bone."

"You have discovered General Qinglong's severed finger."

"General Qinglong is one of the eight generals under the command of the Lord of the Secular World. He has the blood of a dragon. Not only is he extremely powerful and invulnerable to swords and spears, but he is also born with extraordinary water skills. He is the admiral of the naval forces of the Secular World Dynasty, commanding all the maritime organizations and departments of the Secular World, and is deeply trusted by the Lord of the Secular World."

"The broken finger bone in your hand is a remnant of General Qinglong. If you can awaken the remaining spiritual consciousness in it, it may guide you to find the remaining bones of General Qinglong."

"Pay attention. Once you have collected all of General Qinglong's remains, there is a high probability that you will be able to awaken General Qinglong's spirit."

"But it must be nourished with spiritual objects in order to awaken the remaining consciousness and spirituality."

Spiritual nourishment?

Jiang Xinghuo thought about it, took out ambergris from his backpack, and clicked to use it.

"Soak General Qinglong's broken finger bone in ambergris and use the spiritual power of ambergris to nourish the broken finger bone."

"In progress, please wait..."

Jiang Xinghuo waited for about five minutes, and the subsequent text plot popped up.

"Under the nourishment of ambergris, the remaining spirituality in this severed finger has revived and is slowly floating in the air, pointing to a certain location, as if asking you to go there. Do you want to go over there?"

Jiang Xinghuo took a look and realized that they had sensed the location of other corpse remains, so they must not miss it, so they immediately controlled the character to walk in that direction.

"Under the guidance of this broken finger bone, you came to an ancient well in the corner of the front yard. However, the edge of the well was covered with a thick stone slab, and an iron chain locked the stone slab and the well edge exposed on the ground together, as if it was sealing something..."
