Chapter 32 Beiye City

By then, when his skin and tendons have been trained to perfection, he can be called a second-class martial artist. With such strength, it will be easy for him to make a living. Maybe he can even join a powerful sect as Li Haomiao said.

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, one third of the world's sects were occupied.

Although those who become apprentices with skills are not direct descendants, they are still much better than those disciples who start from the bottom.

Whether becoming a guest official or an outer sect elder, it is a good choice.

By then, I will have truly stood up.

In the woods at the foot of the mountain, Xu Yunfan could already see human traces as he walked forward, and could also vaguely hear the sounds of hunters hunting in the distant mountains.

At this moment, he didn't want to pay any attention to it at all, but just followed the increasingly chaotic footprints and kept moving forward.

The more footprints there are, the closer they are to the town. This is not a difficult task for him who has hunting skills. In fact, his hunting proficiency has increased by a few points just by observing these footprints.

"You carefully observed the footprints and tried hard to distinguish them. As expected, they are about 60% consistent with your guess. Your hunting proficiency has improved."

You carefully searched for the tracks and discovered they were left by a wild boar. You carefully considered the direction and discovered that, as you expected, your hunting proficiency had improved.

'...'

Finally, when he climbed over a small hill, what came into his sight was a village, a quaint village covered with snow.

The houses are all made of wood with green tile roofs, arranged in an orderly manner. Thick snow presses on the tiles, and smoke is rising from the chimneys on some of the roofs, which is quite pleasant.

The road in the village is winding and only vague outlines remain after being buried in the snow. Occasionally, there are a few sets of footprints of varying depths, or hoof prints left by livestock, extending into the distance.

Several villagers, wrapped in thick cotton clothes, hunched their heads to avoid the cold wind, hurried past with hoes on their shoulders.

Xu Yunfan always felt like tears welling up in his eyes when he saw this peaceful scene. Since he came here, all he saw was either the desolate Arakawa glacier or the whips of the supervisors. He was rushing all the way, so how could he have the leisure to appreciate the beautiful scenery?

Li Haomiao, on the other hand, was quite relaxed. He talked about the beautiful scenery here and the wonders there along the way, and even recited a few poems on impulse.

It really annoyed him for a long time.

He touched the silk in his arms, and his heart was immediately at ease. At least this trip was not in vain. He had to find a place to stay first.

Near the village, Xu Yunfan finally asked an old man and found the direction to the city.

Looking at Xu Yunfan's departing back, the father-in-law took a breath and the old pipe in his hand shook on the sole of his shoe.

"Oh my god, this guy is so strong, like a bear walking towards me, he scared me to death."

To be honest, the fur Xu Yunfan was wearing was thick, and with the help of the Red Copper Cloak and the Wind Hammer, his body became extremely strong with the blessing of the attribute panel. He looked very bloated from a distance, and the fur was only preliminarily tanned, which greatly retained its original characteristics. The hat on his head was made of bear head fur.

At first glance, you might have thought it was a bear staggering towards you.

"Beiye City!"

Looking at the plaque hanging above the city, Xu Yunfan's face showed emotion.

Looking up, I saw the heavy city gate made of simple solid wood with mottled copper nails. The soldiers holding spears on both sides looked a little drowsy. The blue bricks on the city wall were covered with snow, and dry vines were winding on them.

Most of the pedestrians around were hurriedly passing by in worn cotton coats, some with their necks hunched, and some covering their ears.

A few men and women in luxurious clothes were in a hurry and did not stay for long.

However, almost without exception, everyone subconsciously avoided Xu Yunfan who was standing in the middle of the official road looking at the city. After his leather training was completed, his height had increased by several inches with the help of the attribute panel. He was almost 1.9 meters tall, and he was wearing fur, and his body had not been washed for many days and emitted an unpleasant smell.

Even on a cold winter day, people still frown and cover their noses to avoid it.

If it weren't for Xu Yunfan's impressive size, someone would have complained. Xu Yunfan naturally noticed this, but without further scrutiny, he quickly entered Beiye City under the vigilant gaze of the two soldiers.

Only after Xu Yunfan left did the two soldiers breathe a sigh of relief.

After a while, a soldier suddenly spoke.

"It seems that they haven't collected the city entrance fee yet?"

The soldier on the opposite side was annoyed: "If you want to take me away, go ahead. This guy has a strong smell of blood on him. He is a ruthless person."

"..."

As soon as he entered the city, Xu Yunfan quickly found a clothing store and sold all the furs on his body, leaving only the Jidao shedding to tie around his body.

Under the obvious threat of Xu Yunfan's martial arts, the owner of the clothing store did not dare to bargain down the price. After receiving twenty-six taels of silver and spending another four taels of silver to buy a set of black clothes, he washed himself with the bucket of bath water generously given by the owner and put on the clothes.

When he walked out of the backyard of the clothing store, the owner's eyes lit up and he said with a bow, "What a mighty warrior!"

Xu Yunfan curled his lips slightly and waved his hand, saying, "Okay, I'll take care of you when I have mountain goods in the future."

The boss's face suddenly showed joy and he bowed repeatedly.

"Thank you, hero!"

If the two bear skins on Xu Yunfan's body were properly tanned and made into coats, he could make at least ten taels of silver in net profit by selling them.

This deal is done!
Xu Yunfan wandered aimlessly in Beiye City. The snow in the city was trampled into mud by passers-by. The cold wind, with its biting chill, penetrated into his clothes.

With his skin training having been perfected, his body was full of blood and vitality, so he was naturally not afraid and even seemed quite relaxed.

What's more, Feimaotui's proficiency has been improving rapidly these days, and he has now reached a small level of success. As long as he practices diligently, it may only take a dozen days for him to reach a full level of success.

As your tendons grow a little longer, your strength increases, and your qi and blood naturally become more vigorous.

Suddenly, he paused, frowned slightly, and subconsciously turned his head to look at a dark corner of the alley.

What came into view were two bodies huddled in the corner.

The older one half-protected the younger one with his body. Both of them were dressed in rags, with patches piled on top of patches, and looked particularly thin in the snow and ice.

The child's little hands tightly grasped the corner of the adult's clothes, and his head was buried in the adult's chest, motionless. The adult looked up at the sky, with the last despair still lingering on his face.

After stopping for a moment, Xu Yunfan left silently.

The world in this world does not seem to be as Li Haomiao said, where the people live and work in peace and contentment, with enough food and clothing.

He found a restaurant and ordered a table full of dishes. Listening to the noisy conversations of the people around him, Xu Yunfan picked up a piece of food and put it into his mouth.

It is sour, spicy and delicious, which whets the appetite.

This is what people eat!

Xu Yunfan devoured the food in no time, wiped his mouth after finishing his meal, and shouted like someone from the next table.

"Waiter, pay the bill."

"Enjoy your meal, sir! Two ounces and three qian of silver."

Xu Yunfan's heart trembled. He silently paid the bill and walked out of the restaurant, looking back.

 I'm a newbie and I'm asking for your read, collection, investment, votes, and all kinds of requests. Thank you everyone!
