My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 93: Creating a lie

When Jiang Xinghuo saw the text message pop up in the game, he finally realized that this tree was the real big one.

I think all the elderly people in this lonely asylum are food fed by this tree. No wonder they are like walking corpses, and all their energy and spirit have become nutrients for the tree.

"This man-eating tree senses the blood in your body, and dozens of tentacle-like vines are attacking you."

"If you are hit by these vines, all your flesh and blood will be devoured. What are you going to do next?"

"1. Leave the Lonely Garden as quickly as possible and get out of the attack range of the man-eating tree."

"2. Face the man-eating tree head-on, but be prepared to be hunted down. Once your aura is exposed, the evil spirits in Guandong City will hunt you down madly."

"3. Find a new way. Some things don't need to be done by yourself. You can kill someone with a borrowed knife."

Jiang Xinghuo looked at the options given and quickly made the corresponding choice. He wanted to see what the so-called finding a different way meant.

"Faced with the crazy attack of the man-eating tree, you chose to temporarily leave the Lonely Garden and come to the street outside."

"Then you took out the Star Bite and activated the talent effect of vector manipulation."

"The earth began to tremble. Under the influence of the moon's gravity, Lonely Garden collapsed instantly and turned into ruins."

"The hidden true face of the man-eating tree has also appeared in the eyes of many people in Guandong City."

"After receiving the news, the armored soldiers of the City Lord's Mansion rushed here as quickly as possible and launched an attack on the man-eating tree."

"Under the siege of the armored soldiers, the man-eating tree was reduced to ashes. You took advantage of the chaos to sneak into the Lonely Garden. According to the records on the map, you found a redwood box buried deep under the remaining roots of the man-eating tree."

"But just as you were about to leave, you were discovered by armored soldiers who came in. They mistook you for a refugee who was taking advantage of the situation and hacked you to pieces."

"You are dead."

The glaring red font came into view, and Jiang Xinghuo sighed helplessly. Now he no longer had the props to revive, and could only wait four hours before he could continue the game.

This is a good time to take stock of today’s gains.

First, I got a few things from the ghost story library.

"Bloodstained Yin Money (Ordinary Item), white paper money stained with the blood of the dead. After burning, it can attract the soul of the dead and force it to work for you. Time limit: 24 hours."

"Skull (Ordinary Item), a magical tool made from the bones of a dead person. Legend has it that if a fox wants to cultivate into a human form, it must carry a skull and worship the moon and breathe. If it does this for a hundred years, it will have a chance to transform into a human, which can slightly increase its cultivation speed."

"Moonlight Cup (Excellent Item), a treasure obtained by Zhong Laohu in a tomb deep in the mountains. It can turn moonlight into fine wine, and drinking it can increase your magic power. However, only the moonlight on a full moon night can have this miraculous effect."

These three things were obtained from the Bell-Ringing Fox. At that time, the old fox took out all the bits and pieces on his body in order to survive.

Jiang Xinghuo originally thought that they were all junk, but unexpectedly there was actually a good thing inside, which was the Moonlight Cup.

It doesn't look special, just like an ordinary ceramic wine glass, but if you look closely, you can see dots of fluorescent light flashing on the surface of the cup.

Unfortunately, it is still early for the full moon night, so I can’t witness the magical effect of this cup for the time being.

After putting these things away, Jiang Xinghuo looked at the remaining things. They were all the props dropped by those ghosts after he killed them in order to seize the fragments of Zi Buyu.

Most of them are of little value, only the paper and pen dropped by the Pen Fairy have some auxiliary use.

"A broken fountain pen (common item) can be used to summon the Pen Fairy to tell fortunes, but the results are vague and cannot be deduced in detail." "Bloodstained white paper (common item) is a piece of paper that carries the resentment of the Pen Fairy, and can be used to summon the Pen Fairy to tell fortunes."

Jiang Xinghuo simply threw all these things into the magic bag. It didn't take up much space anyway, so just leave it there to collect dust.

Finally, Jiang Xinghuo opened the wooden box.

This is his biggest gain today.

"Zi Buyu (legendary prop), can turn people and ghosts upside down with a flip of the hand, and can also turn over millions of ghost soldiers. It is a relic left by the ancient powerful Fengdu. It can create all kinds of ghost stories with its own magic power. The stronger the magic power, the stronger the ghost stories created."

Seeing the text description, Jiang Xinghuo was shocked.

He can turn humans and ghosts upside down with a flip of his hand, and he can command millions of ghost soldiers with another hand.

If such an arrogant and domineering description could really be realized, wouldn't he be able to form an army by himself?
Jiang Xinghuo immediately clicked on the game text, and a thread-bound ancient book appeared in his hand, with three large characters written in seal script:
——The Master remained silent.

As soon as Jiang Xinghuo thought about it, the ancient book began to flip through the pages automatically. Ink dripped slowly from the pages like running water, forming a hideous zombie with flowered feathers, an official robe, a sharp mouth and fangs.

"hiss……"

Jiang Xinghuo couldn't help but gasp, this zombie was condensed by him using Zi Buyu, it didn't consume much mana, with his current cultivation level, if he put all his effort, he could condense about thirteen such zombies.

Moreover, the strange stories condensed by "Zi Buyu" have no time limit and can exist forever as long as they are not forcibly killed.

However, there are some disadvantages, that is, the created ghost stories must be manipulated by the caster.

This places high demands on the caster's mental strength. The stronger the mental strength, the more ghost stories and weird stories he can manipulate.

In the following time, Jiang Xinghuo put all his energy on Zi Buyu.

More than a dozen ghost stories were condensed in succession. In addition to traditional ghost stories, there are also various supernatural stories that appear in games and film and television dramas.

For example, Kayako, Triangle Head, Sadako, and Jason the Thug...

When your mana is exhausted, meditate to recover, and then continue to condense new strange stories.

Until about six in the evening.

A resurrection notification sound was heard in the game.

Jiang Xinghuo then put away his words and took the phone that was charging next to him.

During this afternoon, he had come up with more than thirty ghost stories and weird stories, all of which he collected in Zi Buyu.

When you need to use it, just turn on Zi Buyu and you can control those strange stories to attack the enemy.

More than thirty supernatural stories happening at the same time, not to mention how much harm it can cause, even the psychological impact is something that most people cannot bear.

Those supernatural ghosts that only exist in movies and TV shows suddenly appear in front of you, and anyone who sees them will take a while to react.

Gee!

Jiang Xinghuo can't wait to find someone to try it out, and he's sure the other person's expression will be very interesting.
