My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 84 Black Dog White Chicken
Jiang Xinghuo took stock of his gains. In addition to those three things, he also developed a small map.

But there is no need to rush into this map. There are so many places in Guandong City, enough for him to explore for a while.

He also made plans to temporarily close the shop for the next two days.

Because the meteor shower will hit the earth tomorrow night, he wants to take advantage of these two days to explore more places and find as many useful things as possible.

"You forgave the juggler's mistake, and with your encouragement, he regained his confidence and returned to the crowd to perform his tricks, causing the people around him to exclaim and applaud."

"You continue to wander around the Great Temple."

"You met an old man with a sad face. He sat alone on the steps, which seemed out of place in the festive scene around him."

"Are you going to just ignore it and leave? Or are you going to be kind enough to go over and ask if there is anything you can do to help?"

Two options, go forward or leave.

This was obviously a triggering mechanism for a task. Jiang Xinghuo knew it, so he chose to step forward directly.

"You came to the old man and listened to him talk about his troubles."

"It turned out that a few days ago, there was a thunderstorm in Guandong City, and the guardian beast on the eaves of his house was frightened and ran away. Without the guardian beast to guard the house, evil spirits knocked on the door every night, making it unable to sleep or eat, and unable to sit or lie still."

"Today is the day when the Grand Temple holds a temple fair. It wanted to come here to look for the whereabouts of the guardian beast, but unfortunately it found nothing."

"That's the house-guarding beast it brought back from Beiping City. If we can't find it, we'll have to move."

"But when it was in Beiping City, it heard from a Feng Shui master that in addition to the house-guarding beasts, there are two more things that can protect the house: a black dog and a white chicken."

"The black dog is a black dog without a single stray hair on its body, and the white chicken is the legendary and rare pearl white phoenix chicken."

"If you can find these two things, you can go to Shaoxiang Hutong in Shili Street to look for it. It lives in the last house in the alley. It will reward you handsomely when you come."

This is the end of the game text.

Jiang Xinghuo thought about it for a while, but didn't know where to find these two things, so he decided to go to the teahouse to find the storyteller. They would definitely know things that others didn't know.

"You came to Fuchun Teahouse."

Jiang Xinghuo controlled the character to enter the teahouse and first gave the storyteller 50 points of incense money.

The game text changed immediately.

"You gave the storyteller 50 incense points. The storyteller thanked his parents for the gift and quickly stepped down from the high platform to pay his respects."

"As the saying goes, no reward without merit, the storyteller asked politely if you need its help with anything."

"Tell the storyteller why you are here."

"The storyteller's 'Golden Box Collection' has been activated."

"Keyword automatic recognition..."

"Please wait……"

"Keywords found..."

"The storyteller has found relevant content about 'Black Dog and White Chicken' among the numerous documents stored in the Golden Casket and is reading it for you..."

"Please wait……"

"The reading of the golden box is complete."

"You have obtained the information of black dog and white chicken."

"You can go to Wuweifang in the east of the city to look for black dogs. Legend has it that Wuweixian once got a black mastiff in the secret area, and it gave birth to more than a dozen mixed-blood pups, including a pure black puppy."

"As for the Pearl White Phoenix Chicken, you can go to the Songzi Temple and have a look. The old temple keeper has raised a few white Phoenix Chickens, but whether you can get one depends on your luck."

"You left Fuchun Teahouse." After finding clues to two things, Jiang Xinghuo controlled the game character to walk out of the teahouse and came to the street outside.

"Where are you going to go first? Are you going to Wuweifang to find the Wuwei Immortal, or to Songzi Temple to find the old temple priest?"

Jiang Xinghuo thought for a while and decided to go to Wuweifang first and then go to Songzi Temple.

"You have come to Gomibo."

"This is a sauce workshop founded by the Five Flavors Immortal. It can produce a variety of flavors, including sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty. It is the favorite of gourmet diners. We can sell five large jars of sauce every day."

"You walked into the Wuweifang shop, found the shopkeeper in front, and explained your purpose."

"When the shopkeeper learned your purpose, he led you to the backyard and asked you to sit for a while while he went to ask the real boss to come out."

"You sit in the chair."

"Suddenly I felt a chill on my back."

"You were dragged into the sauce workshop."

"You are dead."

Jiang Xinghuo had expected this, so he was not surprised. He directly opened the inventory and used a piece of dog food.

"You have awakened in the shrine of the Great Temple."

"You came to the outside of Wuweifang again, but this time you didn't go in. You just kept wandering outside."

"Those guys are staring at you intently. If you make the slightest movement, they will rush over and beat you to death with clubs."

"But you seemed to have other ideas. You opened the Tai Sui magic bag and found two talismans among the items you had."

"You have used the Cloud-Repelling Talisman."

"You have used the rain-praying charm."

These two talismans were obtained by Jiang Xinghuo in Longcheng. He got two each for driving away clouds and praying for rain. They must be used together to be effective.

He used it once in the wedding dress shop in Coffin Town, but he didn't expect that the only two talismans left would be used in Guandong City.

"You used two talismans."

"The sky above Wuweifang was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and torrential rain suddenly fell, like a river in the sky overturning, soaking Wuweifang inside and out."

"The various raw materials for the sauce were soaked in water, and many of the workers in the workshop rushed to rescue them. The whole workshop was in chaos."

"You took advantage of the chaos to sneak into Wuweifang, found the black mastiff cub, and stole some things from Wuweifang."

"You have been given, black mastiff cub."

"A black mastiff cub (ordinary item), a young dog with the blood of a mastiff, without a single stain on its body, and a natural beast that can ward off evil and suppress evil."

"You've got it, pestle."

"Sauce pestle (ordinary item), the pestle used by the Wuweifang staff to pound sauces. It has a strong aroma of sauce and can be used as a material to upgrade stick-type weapons."

"You've earned it, Gomi-chan."

"Wuwei Sauce (Fanpin), Wuweifang's signature sauce, is a clever combination of sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty flavors. It not only satisfies the taste buds, but also quickly restores physical strength and relieves mental fatigue."

"You have obtained Xiaoyao Guipi Decoction."

"Xiaoyao Guipi Decoction (ordinary product) is a magical prescription that can relieve liver depression, nourish yin and replenish qi. Even if you work overtime and stay up late every day, your body will not be damaged at all, but will become more and more nourished."

Looking at the few things he had brought from the workshop, Jiang Xinghuo nodded with satisfaction. Now that he had the black dog, the next step would be the white chicken.
