My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 854: Bewitched?

"You sit on the hearse and close your eyes to rest. The monster who made such a bold statement earlier comes to you shamelessly and wants to trade with you. He doesn't ask for much, just a small piece of the flesh and blood of the Sui Dynasty Guest. He is also willing to exchange it for a rare item."

"Do you want to agree to the other party's request?"

"This evil spirit is called Qi Can Dao Ren. He is an evil spirit from the lineage of Tianshi Fadao. The reason why he wants to take a piece of Zhu Sui Ke's flesh and blood is not for his own strength cultivation, but to make medicine for his child."

"Its son, Qi Can Tong Zi, was framed by his enemies and cursed. Although the high-level masters of the Tianshi Dao can remove the curse, they lack the most important ingredient, which is the flesh and blood remains of ghosts and gods from outer space. As long as there is a piece as big as a fingernail, it is enough to make medicine."

"But Taoist Qi Can has traveled all over the secular world and has not met a target that meets his requirements. He can only place his hopes on this hearse."

"It learned from the storyteller in the teahouse that there is a dormant meteorite deep in the ancient town of Taiping, which is likely to house a meteorite god from outer space. That's why it took great effort to get two hearse tickets and planned to try its luck in the ancient town of Taiping."

"But it didn't expect to run into Zhu Sui Ke on the hearse. With its cultivation and the means it has mastered, it shouldn't be too difficult to deal with Zhu Sui Ke. However, it met him on the hearse, and due to the rules and order inside the car, it couldn't attack him at all. It could only wait for Zhu Sui Ke to get off the car before taking action. It didn't expect that you would get there first, plot against Zhu Sui Ke, and force him to die here."

"It was in a desperate situation that it tried to rob just now. As long as you are willing to give up a piece of Zhu Sui Ke's flesh and blood, it is willing to give you its Seven Fragments Order, plus a ticket for a hearse, and will also stop other people who want to take advantage of the situation to rob you."

After reading this game text, Jiang Xinghuo thought for a moment.

It seems that no matter which world they are in, most parents cannot fake their feelings for their children and are willing to give everything for them.

Fortunately, there is enough flesh and blood left, so it doesn't matter if you give it to Taoist Qi Can. You can also get some props by the way, and most importantly, you can get an extra ticket.

Moreover, Taoist Qi Can's words also reminded him that although the evil spirits who coveted his things could not attack him in the car, it did not mean that they could not attack him after getting off the car.

If someone uses the ticket to follow me down the bus when I get off, I might be the one who suffers in the end. With the promise of Taoist Qi Can, at least I can avoid some unnecessary trouble.

Although death is commonplace for him, it is better to avoid death if possible. Who knows if the other party has any means to forcibly snatch something from him.

So after some thought, Jiang Xinghuo decided to trade.

"You agreed to the terms of the deal with the Seven Cripples Taoist."

"You handed a fist-sized piece of Zhu Sui Ke's flesh and blood to Taoist Qi Can, who was immediately overjoyed. Not only did he hand over his own magical instrument, the Qi Can Ling, to you, he also gave you a ticket for the hearse and the secret method of operating the Qi Can Ling."

"You have obtained the Seven Fragments Order."

"You have been granted a hearse ticket."

"You have obtained the manuscript of the Seven Fragments Servitude Method."

"Qican Order (rare item), a unique magic weapon forged by Taoist Qican. It is shaped like a seal and is made of brass. On the left are engraved the three magic spells of "skinning, bone removal, and flesh cutting", and on the right are the three magic spells of "beheading, leg cutting, and hand chopping". On the top is the "Soul Killing Spell". As long as you use the unique secret method to activate it, you can activate the power of the spells on it and launch different attacks on the enemy."

Jiang Xinghuo found that the description in the text was not clear enough, so he took the thing directly into reality.

It was discovered that this Seven Incomplete Order was about two feet long and more than a palm wide, shaped like an ancient seal, and its surface was like a couplet, with characters symbolizing the seven magic spells engraved on it.

I weighed it in my hand and it must be at least four or five pounds. Even if I swing it to hit someone, it is a handy weapon, enough to break bones and tendons.

After putting away the Seven Incomplete Orders, Jiang Xinghuo turned his attention to other things.

Needless to say, the hearse ticket has only two functions, which are to summon the hearse and ride in the hearse.

The remaining manuscripts of the method of using the Seven Remnant Orders are methods specifically used to control the Seven Remnant Orders.

"The Seven Fragments Order Manuscript (Ordinary Item), a handwritten secret book compiled by Taoist Qi Fragments, which records in detail the method of using the Seven Fragments Order. You can control the seven spells on it to attack the enemy."

"Do you want to use this item right away?"

Jiang Xinghuo chose yes without thinking too much.

"You chose to use the manuscript of the Seven Fragments Servitude Method."

"Learning, please wait..."

"Study completed."

"You have successfully mastered the method of using the Seven Fragments."

While the prompt message flashed in the game, Jiang Xinghuo also felt the changes in reality. A lot of information appeared in his mind, all of which were how to control the Seven Remnant Orders in detail.

Afterwards, the game entered the idle stage.

Jiang Xinghuo threw his phone aside to charge, then lay down on the bed and fell asleep in a daze.

I don’t know how long it took.

Jiang Xinghuo woke up in a daze, but the moment he opened his eyes, he was stunned.

Just because he is no longer in the store at the moment.

Instead, he appeared in another place. Although the sun was hanging in the dim sky, Jiang Xinghuo could not feel any warmth at all. Instead, a biting coldness came over him, penetrating deep into his bones.

He was walking on an incredibly wide stone bridge.

The bridge was crowded with people, including men and women, young and old, and many people with strange shapes and disabilities.

The only thing they had in common was that they were all wearing the same white clothes, with numb and dull expressions on their faces, and they were moving forward slowly like puppets. There were also many soldiers with ferocious looks around them, holding steel forks and spears, escorting these people menacingly.

"This is...Naihe Bridge?"

Jiang Xinghuo raised his eyebrows and subconsciously looked under the bridge. The blood-red river was rushing by, with a large number of figures struggling in it. They were also dressed in white and wailing non-stop. Some poisonous creatures such as venomous snakes and scorpions could also be seen.

"The Lethe River?"

Jiang Xinghuo thought it was interesting

Has someone lured his soul to the underworld?
At this moment, Jiang Xinghuo suddenly felt someone pushing him hard. He turned around and saw a ghost soldier with a green face and fangs. He glared at him and shouted:
"Hurry up and leave! You are a wicked person who kills innocent people in the human world. How dare you continue to linger here? When you are in front of the Lord of Hell, if you dare to do such filthy things again, I will make you walk through the eighteenth level!"

Jiang Xinghuo narrowed his eyes slightly.
A barely visible arc of golden lightning flashed in his eyes. "The Nine Heavens Jade Purity Demon-Slaying Divine Thunder is still there..."

Jiang Xinghuo ignored the other party and just felt the changes in his body. Although many of his methods had disappeared, the magical powers he had previously deduced and the Nine Heavens Jade Purity Demon-Slaying Divine Thunder were all there.

The Ten Directions Glazed Glass Calming Spirit Method, the Hand-Eye-Heaven Method, and the Kitchen God Fire can also be activated at any time. Jiang Xinghuo is relieved now. With money in his pocket, he is not panicking. As long as he has these magical powers, he dares to go to the real netherworld, not to mention the false illusion! !

The reason why Jiang Xinghuo did not expose this illusion was, firstly, he wanted to see what this place was, and secondly, he wanted to see who was the mastermind behind the scenes and why he was led into the illusion.

If it were an ordinary person, he might be really frightened by the scene before his eyes.

Even game players who were unaware of the inside story might fall into the trap of the other party. However, the target he chose was Jiang Xinghuo, a living person with the authority of the king of the underworld. There was no way he would be lured into the underworld.

Jiang Xinghuo was also happy to continue playing with the other party, so he simply did not resist and just followed the group forward.

As he walked across the Naihe Bridge, two ghost soldiers came over and grabbed his shoulders and walked onto a small path, talking all the way.

"Jiang Xinghuo, you were supposed to live for ninety-nine years, but unfortunately you killed innocent people and harmed lives in the human world, so you have been shortened by several decades. If you can sincerely repent, the King of Hell may be merciful and let you return to the world. If you resist stubbornly and refuse to repent, I'm afraid you will inevitably roll in the knife mountain and the cauldron of oil!"

"Why bother talking to him! I hope he will never repent and will continue down this path to the end. This way, I can let him experience the punishment of the eighteen levels of hell. By then, even if he regrets, it will be too late. He can only suffer thousands of years of torture in hell and then be reincarnated as a livestock, to be slaughtered and driven by others."

Jiang Xinghuo listened to the two people performing crosstalk with a smile, without refuting or getting angry. He occasionally remarked a few words and cooperated in supporting them, pretending to be scared without revealing the slightest flaw.

The two ghost soldiers became more and more excited as they talked, and they deliberately led him to some places where they could see a large number of dead souls being tortured.

A mountain of knives, a cauldron of oil, a mortar, an iron tree, a raging fire, and a burning...

All kinds of punishments come into view.

Jiang Xinghuo pretended to be terrified and was escorted to a hall by two ghost soldiers.

The vicious King Yama sits in the palace, with the Ox-Head and Horse-Faced Devil standing on both sides.

The dark hall was filled with a solemn and murderous atmosphere.

If a timid person came here, he would probably have collapsed on the spot. However, Jiang Xinghuo didn't care about it at all. It was just a drizzle, far less than those big guys in Fengdu Cave Heaven.

"Your Majesty!"

A ghost soldier kicked him hard from behind, and Jiang Xinghuo sat down on the ground. There was no way he could kneel down. If he hadn't wanted to find out the mastermind behind the scenes, he would have chopped these two grandsons into ashes long ago.

"Be bold!"

Lord Yan, who was sitting in the hall, roared, and the crown on his head moved without wind. He shouted, "Jiang Xinghuo, you are so brave that you dare not kneel before me!"

"Oh? Why should I kneel?"

Jiang Xinghuo asked with a smile: "I don't know what fault I have committed to be personally interrogated by Lord Yan. If Lord Yan can explain it clearly, I will certainly bow my head and plead guilty, and allow Lord Yan to punish me. Not to mention kneeling, I would even kowtow to you a few times."

"Okay, then I'll let you die knowing full well!"

Lord Yan, who was sitting on the dragon throne, opened the account book in front of him. He took the pen in his right hand and made a strong stroke. A faint light flew into the air and evolved into a picture. It was the young man who died under the Five Ghosts' Soul-stealing Technique.

"I'm asking you, did this man die at your hands?"

Seeing this, Jiang Xinghuo immediately reacted and realized that this group of people came for this purpose.

Inside the Zhenwu Cave Heaven in the Golden Palace of Wudang Mountain, this second-generation man who came from the capital wanted to seize the Five Emperors' banner by force, but was taught a lesson by him. If there had not been people around him, he would have killed the other party at that time.

After leaving Zhenwu Cave Heaven, Jiang Xinghuo had no intention of letting him go. For the safety of himself and his family, he used the Five Ghosts Soul-stealing Technique to kill the man without anyone knowing. But to outsiders, it looked like a sudden death from a heart attack, and it would not leave any hidden dangers for himself.

Unexpectedly, the people behind him couldn't find any evidence openly, and didn't dare to come directly to seek revenge on him, so they wanted to use this method to deal with him.

Once I admit this matter with a guilty conscience, what will be waiting for me will be the masters of the Public Opinion Bureau.

I don't think you'll end up paying with your life, but you'll probably have to work on a sewing machine for the rest of your life, and everything you get in the game will end up in the hands of the polling bureau.

"No."

Jiang Xinghuo shook his head and said, "Although I have some grievances with this person, I have never seen him since we parted ways. Besides, I don't even know about his death, so how can I kill him?"

"You are such a bold lunatic! You still dare to lie and deceive me. It seems that you will not give up until you reach the Yellow River. Come on, please bring out the Red Lotus Karma Fire!"

Lord Yan gave a loud shout, and someone immediately responded from below, coming up holding a wooden box.

"The fire in this box is the fire of red lotus karma. It uses the power of sin as fuel to burn. In an instant, you will feel the pain of being burned for thousands of years. At that time, your consciousness will be completely wiped out. Even if you are allowed to return to life, you will become an idiot."

"If you continue to refuse to explain, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Jiang Xinghuo was even more amused and confused after hearing this. The Red Lotus Karma Fire was fine for scaring others, but it was too extreme to use it on himself. However, he really wanted to see what kind of chain reaction would be triggered when others used the Red Lotus Karma Fire to burn themselves, and whether it would be directly absorbed by his own Kitchen God Fire.

"Just come, Lord Yan."

Jiang Xinghuo stood up from the ground, patted the non-existent dust on his body, and grabbed the ghost soldier who had just kicked him, and instantly submerged him in the golden lightning.

"How can it be!"

When Lord Yan saw this scene, he was shocked. He seemed unable to understand why Jiang Xinghuo could still use magic.

But he didn't have time to think about it, so he opened the box directly, releasing a flame as bright as a red lotus.

"Wow, it really is the Red Lotus Karma Fire?"

Jiang Xinghuo waved his right hand, and the red lotus karma fire immediately flew into his palm, as well-behaved as an obedient child, without any of the ferocity of karma fire.
