Absolute Destiny Game

Xiao Jie had already prepared for a tough battle, but when the door opened, there was nothing in the hall in front of him. Only the empty lobby appeared in front of him and me.

Due to the closed windows, insufficient light, and the fact that it may have been sealed for hundreds of years, the interior of the entire Tian family's old house presented a dim, gloomy and decayed atmosphere. Everything was covered with a layer of gray texture, full of ominous atmosphere, making Xiao Jie seem to have returned to the days of staying up late to play Soul 3.

"Rouqiu, go in and take a look!" Xiao Jie ordered.

At this time, the value of pets is reflected. For such a matter of risking one's life to explore the way, of course, the dog should go first.

Rouqiu whined and went in tremblingly.

Broken Teeth followed in, and the two dogs went around the lobby on the left and right, but did not trigger a battle.

Xiao Jie did not let down his guard because it stands to reason that there must be a task BOSS in this hidden map opened through the task line.

He and I, Yu Chengxian, followed the two dogs from a distance and began to search the entire Tian family's old house.

Xiao Jie did not miss any items he saw in the hall, whether they were decorative vases or incense burners on the guest table, and stuffed them all into his backpack.

There was nothing in the hall, only some tables, chairs, benches and bulky furniture that could be destroyed. Going around to the side hall, it was also empty.

Then came the kitchen, where we found a few useful things, kitchen knives, plates, and porcelain bowls. Xiao Jie was not polite and stuffed them all into his backpack. No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat. It can be sold for a few copper coins in a store.

I, Yu Chengxian, followed suit and took everything that could fit into my backpack.

Unfortunately, the rice jars were filled with "rotten grains" and "rotten apples", which obviously could not be sold as garbage.

Next is the bedroom. There are some things here, such as "worn cloth", "worn leather coat", "worn leather boots", and "worn trousers". The main item is a worn-out series.

Xiao Jie still packed everything and took it away. What surprised him was that he found a document in a cabinet at the head of the bed.

[Land deed of the Tian Family's old house (task item)]

So smooth? Xiao Jie happily put this thing in his pocket first. Although this task is to inquire about intelligence, maybe he can also get some task rewards.

The two walked around and searched the entire Tian Family's old house.

Most of the rooms had nothing valuable. The best harvest was just some scattered copper coins opened from a few wooden boxes, some old clothes, jewelry without attributes, etc., which would probably be worth a few dollars if thrown into the store.

In a room deep in the old house, the two finally found the door of the cellar, which showed that it was locked.

Xiao Jie did not open the door rashly, "Continue searching."

After searching two more rooms, when he opened the door of the last room, he found a study room inside.

"Wow, there are so many books."

In the small study room, there were several rows of bookshelves. Xiao Jie clicked on them and searched them one by one, and found a few books to read.

"Travels of a Foreigner"

"Classic of Herbs"

"Records of Nine Provinces"

"Illustrated Explanation of Mountains and Seas"...

Xiao Jie collected them one by one. Many games will create some original texts and books that players can read. Usually, some details are described for the background of the game's story, making the world view of the entire game more realistic, and sometimes some hidden task clues can be found from them.

The plot textual research party likes to study this stuff the most. Of course, Xiao Jie usually searches for strategies directly, but since there is no strategy to read in this game, it does not prevent him from playing the role of a game scientist.

Hey, "Notes on the Origin of the Tian Family" is - Tian Youcai's diary?

Xiao Jie was immediately delighted when he saw the name of this book.

Clicking to read, it records some daily trivialities of the Tian family. Most of the content is meaningless, just raising a cow today and killing a pig tomorrow.

But as he read, he still found some useful details.

"Tian Family Daily Notes"

Chapter 13: June 13.

The Taoist priest came again, and he kept talking about his evil teachings, such as the coming of a great catastrophe and the disasters in the world. He also showed me some Taoist scriptures, which were full of irrelevant nonsense. Humph, he was misleading people with his lies. Do you think I am a country rich man who knows nothing? It is obvious that he wants to deceive me and plot against my family's money.

Chapter 27: August 3.

There was bad news from outside the valley. It was said that the state capital was in chaos, and there were demons everywhere. There were dead people everywhere. The corpses were walking in the wilderness in broad daylight, and the beasts were all crazy. Maybe what the Taoist priest said made some sense.

Chapter 59: May 3.

I actually met that Taoist priest again. He wanted to sell me a [magic talisman], which is said to be able to summon heavenly soldiers and generals. Three hundred taels of silver, which is the savings of my Tian family for decades. However, in order to protect the Tian family's property, I must take a gamble. I hope he didn't cheat me.

Chapter 60: May 5th.

Those scarecrows have come back to life. What heavenly soldiers... are just puppets that can move. They look like tricks of strange mechanisms. However, they are useful. The crazy beasts outside have been driven away. Finally, I didn't lose money.

Chapter 62: May 7th.

A servant died today. It seems that he was killed by the scarecrow. The other servants begged me to destroy the magic talisman. These idiots, how can they know the seriousness? Only with the magic talisman can we keep the family business. What does it matter if one or two people die? As long as we are careful, nothing will happen.

Section 63: May 9th.

Alas, poor Yu Lian has been with me for more than 20 years, and we have been together for a long time, but she died at the hands of the scarecrow. This is not a [magic talisman], it is clearly a [magic talisman]. No, I must destroy this [magic talisman] today.

But I suddenly had an idea. Since this magic talisman can bring the scarecrow back to life, I don’t know if it can also revive my wife. Let’s give it a try. If it doesn’t work, it’s not too late to destroy it.

Section 64: May 10th.

It actually worked. Hahahaha. This [magic talisman] is really a good treasure. With this magic weapon in hand, I will no longer be afraid of death and extinction of the clan.

Section 67: I can’t remember what day it is today.

Yulian has been acting strange lately, always talking to herself, saying she can hear the ‘immortal sound’. She doesn’t eat during the day, and at night, I saw her secretly drinking raw blood. This [magic talisman] is indeed a disaster.

Section 68:

The servants all ran away, this bunch of useless trash, why, did that Taoist deceive me?

Section 69:

I feel something is not right, the power of the talisman is affecting me, I saw a lot of strange things, my body is out of control, Daniu’s eyes are not right when he looks at me, this rebellious son, is he trying to snatch my talisman.

Section 68:

The old man, the bitch, and the rebellious son all want to snatch my talisman. If I don’t give it to you, I will never give it to anyone else. I drove them all out, I hope it’s not too late.

I sealed the door so they can’t get in.

Section 69:

It’s so noisy, there are sounds everywhere in my ears, who is talking?

Section 70:

I must destroy this thing, I can’t let it hurt people again, but why can’t I do it? It seems that there is a voice stopping me.

Chapter 71:

The [Talisman] is mine, no one can take it away. Yes, I must hide it, maybe the cellar is a good place...

The book ends here.

Seeing this, Xiao Jie finally had a clear understanding of the story.

Obviously, when the catastrophe came, Tian Youcai bought a [Talisman] from the Taoist priest, which could revive dead things and turn the scarecrow into the so-called "heavenly soldier" to guard the mansion, but he didn't expect that even the dead could be resurrected, and the talisman seemed to have an effect on the mind, causing him to fall into madness, drive his family out, and finally hide in the cellar with the talisman.

And his family members were also turned into demons and surrounded the Tian family's old house. I don't know if they were attracted by the magic talisman or for some other reason.

So this Tian Youcai is probably a demon now.

And it must be more powerful than the three demons before.

Maybe it's a BOSS.

And the [Talisman/Magic Talisman] must still be on him.
