Chapter 8: Profound Blessings!
Chapter 8: Profound Blessings!
The Book of Myths contains countless myths and folk tales.
The game developers have scattered these easter eggs throughout the various maps, which players can activate by performing certain actions.
Although Xu Xian knew the location and activation method of all the mythological stories, he could not guarantee success on the first try.
Because he lacks good fortune and luck.
Mythological stories are all about a chance encounter.
Countless people dream every day, but only Zhuangzi dreamed of being a butterfly.
There were countless woodcutters on the mountain, but only Wang Zhi participated in the Rotten Chess Game.
They are people with great opportunities, and can easily do what others cannot.
"Myths of the Gods" presents fortune in a straightforward numerical form.
Simply put, the higher your luck level, the greater the chance of triggering various legends and stories after performing certain actions!
Xu Xian's current three points of good fortune are really not enough.
"If the quality isn't good enough, quantity will make up for it. I really don't believe I can't trigger it even once!"
Xu Xian arrived at a small river.
"Go downstream on any small river, and then..."
Xu Xian rented a small boat and began his experiment.
then……
"Dr. Xu, what are you doing, rowing around here in the middle of the day? Are you fishing?"
"I think so. It seems that Dr. Xu has lost something."
"Oh, how do you know?"
"You don't know, do you? I saw Dr. Xu go back and forth so many times! If something wasn't lost, why would he be doing this?"
"Dr. Xu is indeed looking around, as if searching for something... Dr. Xu, what are you looking for? We'll help you find it!"
"Stop shouting, it's no use! I think Dr. Xu was just too idle today, going back and forth 162 times, how boring... and he's got a lot of energy!"
Xu Xian was furious!
You're watching this because you're bored!
Not only do you look, you count!
Not only do you count, you also say it out loud!
Do you think I, Xu, have no pride?!
Xu Xian glared at the people around him, ignored them, and continued rowing.
Half a day later, the sun set in the west.
Xu Xian is still rowing the boat!
It was March or April, not exactly the busy season for farming.
There are indeed quite a few bored and idle people in Hangzhou who are looking for some fun.
When news of Xu Xian's strange rowing behavior spread, it naturally attracted their attention.
These people invited their friends and companions, bringing melon seeds, peanuts, fine wine, and delicious food.
They simply sat down on the grass by the river, drinking and making merry while Xu Xian rowed the boat, having a wonderful time!
As the sun began to set, Li Gongfu pushed his way through the crowd, brandishing his wine gourd and shouting, "What's going on? Did you have a fight with your wife? I've been through this, I have some experience to share, let me tell you... Ouch, don't pull my ear! I was wrong!"
Xu Jiaorong grabbed Li Linfu's ear to stop him from talking nonsense.
She looked at her younger brother and waved back, saying, "Tell your sister what you want to say."
The people around laughed and exclaimed that Xu Xian's beautiful wife indeed had the demeanor of a woman from Jiangnan.
She appears gentle and tender, but in reality, she is strong-willed beneath her gentle exterior. She managed to subdue Doctor Xu to the point that he spent all his time rowing a boat and dared not go home.
"..."
Xu Xian looked at the commotion around him, feeling like crying but having no tears left.
"My reputation seems to be ruined..."
"I hate the Fortune System!"
"I hate probability!"
Xu Xian stopped the boat and docked with a look of indignation.
He explained to his sister that he was weak and frail, so he was rowing to improve his physical condition.
This drew another round of laughter, and it seemed that Xu Xian was just trying to save face.
Li Linfu gave Xu Xian a knowing look and replied, "Rowing is good! Rowing can improve physical fitness! We must row!"
Even Xu Jiaorong was skeptical and advised, "What goes around comes around; don't do this again."
"..."
Xu Xian knew he had nothing to say to this group of people, so he could only bow and agree.
Amidst the laughter of a group of busybodies, I went home.
His silhouette looked somewhat forlorn.
Back home, Xiaoqing giggled incessantly, while Bai Suzhen looked on with a resentful expression: "Why did my husband go boating?"
Xu Xian displayed the sword in his hand and made up a story: "I learned how to practice swordsmanship from the posture of rowing a boat."
"..."
Bai Suzhen felt like she couldn't keep up with Xu Xian's train of thought.
She helped Xu Xian remove his outer garments and served him the prepared meal, whispering, "I know you have a sincere heart and want to protect me. To be honest, I also have some ways to protect myself, so you don't need to worry so much."
nonsense!
You're a level 40 powerful demon, one of the top players in Hangzhou. I still have to rely on you!
Even in the original storyline, if it weren't for her own terrible teammate and her pregnancy causing yin and yang imbalance, she wouldn't have been defeated by that bald monk Fahai.
Now that Xu Xian has personally intervened, he naturally won't allow such a thing to happen.
Xu Xian sighed inwardly, but said aloud, "It's good that my wife understands my heart."
The two gazed at each other tenderly, which gave Xiaoqing goosebumps all over: "Hmph, I'm not eating!"
After saying that, the guy simply walked away.
After Xu and Bai finished their meal, Bai Suzhen cleaned up like an ordinary woman.
Xu Xian returned to his room and continued to improve his level.
At levels 5 to 10, each 20 Qi increases the level by one.
He killed two rat demons and obtained 24 units of Qi, enough to level up!
"Keep improving your physique!"
Name: Xu Xian
[Level: 6]
[Physical Fitness: 31]
[Mana: 15]
[Divine Sense: 15]
【Perception: 2】
[Luck: 3]
[Technique: Yin-Yang Harmony Technique (Blue)]
[Supernatural Powers: None]
[Treasures: Realgar White Sword (Green), Rat Demon Hide (White) x2]
[Dao Qi: 6]
"Unfortunately, I don't have a pouch with me, and although the rat demon skin belongs to me, it's not on my person."
"As for physical constitution..."
Xu Xian, sensing his physical condition, smiled and said, "I have already surpassed the martial arts grandmasters of this world. Even without the Realgar White Sword, I could have fought those two rat demons! It's a pity I don't have any supernatural powers or techniques, so I'm no match for real demons."
He looked up at the west side of Hangzhou city and narrowed his eyes: "The Rat Demon King, a level 19 monster. Defeating it will grant you a minor supernatural power called [Heart-Piercing Constipation]!"
Xu Xian was sorting out his strategy for passing the level when Bai Suzhen walked in shyly.
Seeing the level 40 demon display such an attitude, Xu Xian naturally forgot all about the so-called strategy.
He picked up Bai Suzhen and blew out the red candles.
Then... the wooden bed began to creak and groan.
The next day, Xu Xian showed Bai Suzhen his hands.
"My lord, what's wrong?"
"Blow on my hand and say, 'My lord is blessed with great fortune!'"
Bai Suzhen simply thought it was Xu Xian's little joke.
"call--"
She puffed out her cheeks, blew hard, and then said, "My lord, you are blessed with good fortune; may all your wishes come true!"
"hey-hey!"
Xu Xian patted Bai Suzhen's head and went straight out to find his own small boat.
Just like yesterday, the small boat drifted downstream.
An old man on the riverbank watched Xu Xian's retreating figure and chuckled, teasing, "Little Doctor Xu is rowing again. How many times are you planning to go back and forth today? Let this old man count for you."
The old man sat on the shore and waited for a long time, but Xu Xian never returned.
He was slightly puzzled: "What's going on?"
As Xu Xian rowed his boat downstream, he suddenly felt that everything around him was hazy, as if he had forgotten his journey.
A moment later, a peach grove suddenly appeared on both sides of the stream.
The grass is lush and beautiful, and the fallen petals are in full bloom.
We've arrived at Peach Blossom Spring!
