My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 76: The Fox Dies on His Own Hill
"You took the path on the left."

"You changed into the Japanese soldier's clothes, carried the seasonings and food, and came to the guesthouse of the poison gas unit."

"You discovered a new scene, the Gas Troops Guest House."

"Because you had a pass, the soldiers guarding the gate didn't discover your identity, and you successfully entered the camp of the guesthouse."

"Where are you going next?"

"You can see the camp's kitchen and the gunpowder storage. If you go further inside, you can see the road leading to the research institute."

Jiang Xinghuo thought about it and realized that if he just rushed in, he would either be shot to death or attract all kinds of evil spirits.

If they simply blew up the gunpowder depot, what would be destroyed would be the guesthouse camp, not the poison gas research institute behind it. This would alert the enemy and increase the difficulty of the mission.

Although this is a game, the world on the other side is real, not a rigid data logic.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Xinghuo made a decision.

"You chose to go to the camp kitchen."

"You walked into the kitchen carrying the ingredients, and found a lone ghost cook in the kitchen."

"The ghost chef was very happy to see you come in. It just so happens that a few Manchurian ladies want to eat stewed meat. The meat of those experimental samples is too lean and tough, and your body is just right for it."

"The ghost chef picked up the bone-cutting knife on the chopping board and walked towards you..."

When Jiang Xinghuo saw that the ghost dared to attack him, he would not tolerate it. He directly controlled the character to unfold the Water God Palace, controlled the water flow to turn into a sawtooth flywheel, and cut the ghost chef into pieces.

"You have killed the ghost cook."

"Your incense +200."

"You got a tattered bone-cutting knife, a cook's uniform made of human skin, a sashimi plating recipe book, and a pass to the poison gas research institute."

Jiang Xinghuo thought that this guy looked inconspicuous, but he had quite a few odds and ends hidden on his body.

Let’s see what the harvest is like first.

"The Broken Bone-Chopping Knife (Ordinary Item). The blade of the Bone-Chopping Knife has been bent because it has been used for too long. It can be used as a weapon, or as a material for upgrading items."

Jiang Xinghuo threw it directly on the niche and hung it there. He felt that this junk took up too much space in his magic bag.

Then he looked at something else.

"Cooking clothes made of human skin (common material), made from the skin of the dead test subjects of the poison gas experiment. They are tough and wear-resistant, and are not afraid of fire. They can be used as materials to upgrade special props."

"Sashimi plating recipe (ordinary item), the technique of sashimi plating is useless, but those Manchurian devils believe that different plating methods can maximize the deliciousness of food."

"A pass to the Poison Gas Laboratory (common item). The ghost chef's cooking skills are pretty good. The Manchurian devils like the dishes he cooks very much. They ask him to deliver them to the Poison Gas Laboratory every day. With this pass, you can enter and leave the Poison Gas Laboratory freely."

Jiang Xinghuo's eyes lit up. Among these pieces of junk, this pass was the most valuable.

"You chose to go to the Poison Gas Research Institute."

Jiang Xinghuo made some dishes according to the guesthouse's recipes, and then went to the poison gas research institute.

"You passed the Japanese inspection at the entrance of the institute."

"You entered the Poison Gas Research Institute."

"You followed the map on the wall and found a poison gas laboratory. When the devils saw the food in your hand, they immediately swarmed over and took the food away." "You explored the laboratory and found a dungeon key. You left the laboratory and came to the dungeon where the test subjects were imprisoned."

"You found a dying corpse-carrier."

"The corpse driver, a corpse driver from Bashu Ghost House, was captured by the Kwantung Army and taken to the research institute when he came to Guandong City to visit a friend."

"It knows it's dying, but its son came with it. The corpse driver hopes you can help rescue its son. If there's no way to save him, then help its son get out. Don't let the child become a test subject for the poison gas."

"Are you willing to accept the commission of the corpse driver?"

"You accepted the commission from the corpse driver."

"You found those Manchurian devils and learned the whereabouts of the corpse driver's son from their mouths."

"But by the time you got there, it was too late. The corpse driver's son had already died in the poison gas, and you brought the body back to the corpse driver."

"The Corpse Driver is very grateful to you for reuniting the father and son. He hopes you can send them on their final journey. In return, he has something to give you."

"You have acquired the skill of driving corpses."

"Corpse Driving Technique (Excellent Technique), a spell that can manipulate corpses. It is quick and easy to use. All you need to do is draw a spell on the corpse with blood and control it with the Three Purities Bell."

"You have obtained the detonating talisman."

"Detonating Talisman (common grade spell), a talisman technique passed down by the corpse-driving lineage. It can plant talismans in the internal organs of a corpse. If you encounter an enemy that you cannot resist, you can activate the detonating talisman to produce considerable power."

Jiang Xinghuo looked at his harvest, sent the corpse-driver and his son away first, then quickly ended the battle and killed the Manchurian devils outside with the Five Thunder Method.

Afterwards, he used the corpse-driving technique to control the corpses of the Manchurian devils and planted detonating talismans in their bodies.

"You left the poison gas laboratory and came to the hillside not far away. Do you want to activate the detonator in the corpse?"

"You activated the detonating talisman in the Manchurian devil's body."

"There was a loud bang in the poison gas laboratory, and the panicked roars of the Manchurian devils were heard."

"Just like when you destroyed the ruins of the Kwantung Army's poison gas unit, a large amount of virus samples were released from the vessels and spread through the air to the guest house outside."

"You stand on a high place and look around. The institute and the camp outside are in a dead silence. Under those horrible bacteria and viruses, all the monsters and demons in the poison gas institute have died inside."

"You were also infected with those horrible viruses. Fortunately, your body has developed resistance. Just cough a few times and those viruses will no longer have any effect on you."

"You have completed the hidden mission - destroy the current site of the Kwantung Army's poison gas unit."

"Your reputation within the Exile race has improved."

"You have earned it. The fox dies on the hill."

"A fox dies on its home hill (a rare consumable item), a bird flies back to its homeland, a fox dies on its home hill. After using this item, you can ignore the space barrier and teleport to other places at will within a thousand miles."

Seeing the text description of "the fox dies on the first hill", Jiang Xinghuo immediately thought of the teleportation scroll.

This item is different from the shrine left behind by Fengdu. The shrine left behind by Fengdu is a fixed-point teleportation item, and players can only teleport between two shrines.

However, the Fox can be teleported to other places at will within a thousand miles.

This is equivalent to having a life-saving artifact.
