From Beggar to Emperor: My Profession Has Its Own Characteristics

Chapter 80 Abnormal Experiences

"yes!"

Ding Xiaowu immediately responded, putting away his aggrieved expression, and turned to walk towards the corpse of the big black dog.

As Ding Xiaowu bent down to dispose of the black dog's carcass, Zhu Yuan walked to the man whose knife he had just taken and handed the cleaver back to him.

"Then wash the knife thoroughly," Zhu Yuan reminded him.

Even the blood of a worthless demon has a slight corrosive quality.

This is also why there are many intricacies involved in properly disposing of demon corpses.

"Oh, okay, little brother."

Zhu Yuan nodded to him and said nothing more.

He glanced at Ding Xiaowu, who was busy at work, and He Zhengzhou, who was supervising him, and knew that his business here was over. So he didn't linger and turned to walk towards the old carrying pole and basket that he had placed not far away.

Ding Xiaowu disposed of the big black dog's body very quickly.

Because the big black dog was dealt with cleanly and efficiently, with only one wound on its body, the corpse of such a worthless demon was easy to handle, especially since Ding Xiaowu was a professional.

He Zhengzhou walked in front, with Ding Xiaowu carrying the corpse of the big black dog behind him.

"Lord He, that dog demon was killed by that young man in one blow. That young man is ruthless enough."

As Ding Xiaowu walked, he kept clicking his tongue in amazement, his tone filled with admiration.

"His name is Zhu Yuan, and he's certainly ruthless." He Zhengzhou walked ahead, first nodding, then adding, "However, there's an element of luck involved in hitting the vital point so hard."

"Hehe, I think I'm pretty lucky too." Speaking of luck, Ding Xiaowu chuckled, a smug smile on his face, as if he had remembered something he was proud of.

"Alright, I know you too well." He Zhengzhou didn't even turn his head when he heard this, he just chuckled.

Ding Xiaowu laughed along with him and didn't say anything more.

After walking for a while, Ding Xiaowu remembered something and took the initiative to start a conversation: "By the way, Lord He, this Zhu Yuan shouldn't be an ordinary peddler, right? Look at his skills and reactions—"

"Yes," He Zhengzhou responded, giving his answer, "He is now a registered disciple of Dongyun Martial Arts School."

"So you're a disciple of the martial arts school."

Upon hearing this, Ding Xiaowu's smile faded slightly, his brows furrowed, and his gaze became complicated.

In Qingyang County, most martial artists come from the five major martial arts schools, but neither he nor He Zhengzhou did.

"Don't you think this Zhu Yuan looks quite pleasing to the eye?" He Zhengzhou suddenly spoke again, his tone revealing no particular emotion, as if he were just saying it casually.

"ah?"

Ding Xiaowu was completely taken aback by He Zhengzhou's words. He almost stumbled, but quickly regained his balance, his face filled with surprise and confusion.

He knew that his Lord He usually had no goodwill towards the five major martial arts schools in Qingyang County, let alone praised the disciples of those schools.

"Looks good to me? Let me see."

As Ding Xiaowu spoke, he actually turned around and looked in the direction Zhu Yuan had left. Zhu Yuan was surrounded there, but his face was still visible.

He looked at it carefully, then turned back and said thoughtfully, "Uh—it's alright."

After he finished speaking, he secretly glanced at He Zhengzhou and found that He Zhengzhou did not seem to have any special reaction, but Ding Xiaowu, who had been with him for a long time, still noticed a subtle difference.

So, he changed his tone and immediately revised his previous statement: "They are quite pleasing to the eye."

"That's natural." He Zhengzhou seemed quite satisfied with the answer. "Look, he wasn't even a martial artist yet, but he was able to act decisively in that situation. Some people, even if they had become martial artists, would only watch from afar if they knew that a demon had appeared."

"Yes, on this point, this young man named Zhu Yuan is truly impeccable." Ding Xiaowu nodded in genuine agreement this time.

"This is the kind of person who is suitable to be a demon suppressor," He Zhengzhou said, his gaze becoming more profound.

"Lord He is right," Ding Xiaowu quickly echoed.

"Alright, you don't need to keep repeating what you agree with me." He Zhengzhou waved his hand first, then spoke with a hint of teasing, "Remember to be faster next time. I'm faster than you. You really don't let me have a peaceful holiday."

Upon hearing this, Ding Xiaowu opened his mouth, intending to retort.

Why do you always like to wander around by yourself?

But the words stuck in his throat and he didn't say them.

It was precisely because He Zhengzhou liked to wander around like this that he appeared in time when his family was in the most danger, saving their lives.

He himself admired He Zhengzhou, and after possessing martial arts talent and becoming a martial artist, he chose to follow He Zhengzhou and become a demon suppressor in the Demon Suppression Division.

He took a deep breath and finally responded loudly.

"Yes, sir!"

Zhu Yuan picked up his goods and continued being a peddler.

Before he could take two steps, the little girl and her father blocked his way.

The little girl's father gently patted her shoulder.

The little girl stepped forward.

"Thank you, Brother Zhu Yuan, for saving my life."

Zhu Yuan smiled and said, "You're welcome."

He then squatted down, took out some candy, and handed it to the little girl.

"Keep this safe, it's a gift from Brother Zhu Yuan."

"Thank you, Brother Zhu Yuan."

The little girl smiled as she received the candy.

:

When the little girl's father saw this, he was about to say something when the crowd of onlookers had already gathered around.

"Perfect timing, I'd like to buy something."

"I don't have much needle and thread at home right now, Zhu Yuan, could you give me a pack?"

"I'll just buy my son a rattle drum."

"Brother Zhu Yuan, let me think—I'll take a box of rouge; it'll be perfect for my wife."

Zhu Yuan's business was booming this afternoon.

Some of the local people came to patronize his business, while others just glanced at it and then kept their distance.

Some people saw how lively it was and came over to join in the fun, and some even bought some things along the way.

Before the afternoon was even over, Zhu Yuan, the peddler, had run out of goods.

This was the first time he had encountered such a situation.

As a peddler, he needed to ensure he had a sufficient supply of goods, so he would go to restock from time to time.

Selling goods and completing transactions will increase the peddler's experience; purchasing goods and completing transactions will also increase experience.

There's still some time before the afternoon ends.

Back home, Zhu Yuan planned to go to buy more goods the day after tomorrow.

Whether it's tomorrow or the day after, he plans to go to the slaughterhouse to kill pigs.

Occupation: Peddler Level: Lv3 (692/2000)

When Zhu Yuan opened the ancient book in his mind to the fourth page, he immediately noticed something was wrong.

The problem lies in the peddler's experience leveling.

Keep in mind that before this afternoon, his experience as a peddler had not exceeded two hundred.

Even if you sell a lot of goods today, it would be great if you could gain 400 experience points.

Keep in mind that his peddler level is now level three, not level two.

The result was an astonishing increase; my experience points are almost 700.
