At the start of the game, you have one equipment slot; the effects of unequipping the equipment rema

After comforting Mu Yang, Dai Wang hurriedly left to deal with matters in Su Family Village.

Mu Yang drew several buckets of well water, but didn't boil it; he took a cold shower directly.

Of course, for Mu Yang, who was already a fourth-level martial artist, this water temperature was not considered cold.

Just as Mu Yang finished taking a shower and changed into a clean Demon Slayer uniform, he suddenly heard a knock on the door outside the courtyard.

This is Dai Wang's courtyard; usually, no one comes here.

It's almost evening now, who could it be?

Mu Yang used his inner energy to dry the water droplets from his hair and then pushed open the door to go out.

The person who took the lead surprised Mu Yang.

It was none other than Dai Wang, who had only been gone for less than half an hour.

There were two other people behind him.

A middle-aged man with a short beard, dressed in a brocade robe, with a prosperous face and a professional smile on his lips.

The other was an older man with gray hair and a thin build. He was wearing a plain long robe and holding a sandalwood box in his hands.

"Brother Mu, these two are the vice presidents of the Eight Directions Chamber of Commerce, President Zhu Yong and President Zhou Wu," Dai Wang introduced, stepping aside.

"I have long admired the name of Colonel Mu, and it is my great honor to meet you today." Zhu Yong bowed with his hands clasped, his face full of smiles.

Zhou Wu bowed slightly and handed over the sandalwood box in his hand: "I am visiting abruptly and have brought a small gift. I hope it is appreciated and that Commandant Mu will accept it."

Mu Yang didn't answer; he just looked at the two of them without saying a word.

Dai Wang didn't urge him, but just stood aside and watched.

In fact, after entering the house, he only introduced himself briefly, and then gave Mu Yang a look that said, "Brother Mu, do as you please."

Dai Wang understood why the Bafang Chamber of Commerce had taken the initiative to visit him with gifts and apologize, but whether Mu Yang would forgive them was up to Mu Yang himself.

Seeing that Mu Yang did not react, Zhu Yong's smile froze for a moment, then returned to normal.

He lowered his body further and said sincerely, "Captain Mu, Su Hai colluded with outsiders to harm you. We had no prior knowledge of this matter."

"If I had known, I would have done everything in my power to stop him and would never have allowed this villain to ruin Captain Mu's peace."

"We have come here today to atone for our sins and beg for the forgiveness of Commandant Mu!"

Zhou Wu, who was standing to the side, echoed his agreement.

God knows their expressions when Lei Jiaojiao and Mei Cao came to their door that afternoon.

They thought they had a chance to climb the social ladder by marrying into the Lei and Mei families, but little did they know it would turn into a disaster that nearly cost them their lives.

Leaving aside the influence of the Lei and Mei families in Qinghe County, the fact that Mu Yang was wearing the clothes of the Demon Slayer Division and that he was able to kill Bao Ping was enough to make them live in constant fear.

Su Hai, that bastard, was already fighting for power and taking wives and concubines while he was alive, and he still wouldn't rest in peace even after he died! He's a jinx!

Mu Yang glanced at the two men who were bowing their heads, and then at Dai Wang.

Dai Wang gestured for him to do as he pleased and not to worry about him.

"Put your things down and leave."

After a moment, Mu Yang spoke.

Judging from Dai Wang's previous explanation, the Eight Directions Chamber of Commerce is not a monolithic entity. Since there was no involvement and the other party even took the initiative to apologize, Mu Yang is not the kind of person who would go to extremes.

Most importantly, the other party was backed by the police, and he didn't want to make things difficult for Dai Wang.

After all, Dai Wang was really good to him.

Zhu Yong and Zhou Wu exchanged a glance, both seeing a look of relief in each other's eyes.

"Thank you, Captain Mu! We won't disturb you any longer!"

The two thanked him repeatedly, placed the sandalwood box on the stone table, bowed deeply to Mu Yang, and then turned to leave.

"After being warned by the Lei family, these two were so scared that they were like mice whose tails had been stepped on. They immediately found me through Jiang Zhao."

"I figured we shouldn't refuse something that's given away for free, so I brought it," Dai Wang explained.

Mu Yang nodded and opened the sandalwood box.

It is a small sleeve pouch.

The space is not very large, only three feet square, or one cubic meter.

Inside was a stack of gleaming gold bars, a wooden box wrapped in red brocade, and two porcelain bottles containing fourth-tier pills.

"Now that the goods have been delivered, I'll be going now." Dai Wang said goodbye and left.

The resettlement of the villagers of Sujiazhuang will keep the county government and the Demon Slaying Division busy for quite some time.

After Dai Wang left, Mu Yang took the wooden box and sleeve bag and went back to his room.

And they began to tally up their day's harvest.

The majority of items were still miscellaneous and low-grade items such as gold, silver, and clothing.

Mu Yang put all the low-level items into the largest sleeve pocket, and then categorized the remaining items into different sleeve pockets according to their rank.

Finally, he took out all the sleeve pouches from his equipment inventory.

First, let's talk about martial arts.

The Dantian Construction Method has three parts in total.

These are Bao Ping's "Strong Wind Dantian Construction Method", Ke You's "Wood Source Dantian Construction Method", and Su Chuan's "Pure Yuan Dantian Construction Method".

The first two methods both have attributes, with Bao Ping's "Powerful Wind Dantian Construction Method" having a rare attribute outside of the Five Elements.

Mu Yang glanced at the introduction, which said that the true qi condensed by this method would be lighter and more agile, and after being added to the body, it would bring a certain degree of lightness and acceleration.

In addition to the three Dantian construction methods, there are also eight fourth-tier martial arts techniques.

Half of them came from Bao Ping, and they had two sword techniques, one body technique, and a horizontal martial art called "Wind Power Body".

Unlike typical body-defense training, this martial art focuses on strengthening the bones and joints of the legs to increase leg strength, thereby greatly increasing speed.

Strictly speaking, it can be considered half a body movement martial art.

In addition, there are three martial arts techniques possessed by Ke You: a movement technique, a body-strengthening technique, and his signature move, "The Poisonous Hand of the Withered Tree".

The last skill was taken from Su Chuan; it was a martial arts technique related to guns.

Clearly, Su Chuan, the manor lord, is very ambitious and genuinely wants to break through to the fourth rank, always carrying fourth-rank martial arts with him.

On the contrary, Su Hai didn't have any martial arts skills, but he did bring a lot of money and pills.

Among them, there are as many as twelve fourth-order pills.

There are those that heal, detoxify, replenish blood, brighten the mind, and even strengthen the body and kidneys.

It was clear that Su Hai's body seemed very weak.

Besides martial arts and pills, there were also some weapons of the third and fourth tiers, as well as some poisons and venoms found on Ke You.

Examples include "Dead Wood Venom," "Bone-Dissolving Powder," and "Seven-Step Intestine-Severing Pill."

There are also several books that record knowledge, such as "The Classic of Poisons" and "Identification of Herbs".

What surprised Mu Yang the most was the fourth-tier treasure armor, a demon-finding compass, and a fourth-grade treasure medicine that Bao Ping had in his sleeve.

Mu Yang didn't understand. If he had the armor, why didn't he wear it during battle?

Bao Ping: Did you give me a chance?

The Demon-Seeking Compass is produced by the Demon-Slaying Division's Heavenly Craft Hall. It is also sold to the public, but it is not cheap.

It requires five fourth-tier monster corpses or two fourth-grade precious medicines to purchase.

It's almost twice as expensive as the internal exchange rate.

As for that fourth-grade precious medicine, it is called Crimson Blood Lingzhi.

At first, Mu Yang didn't take it too seriously.

After all, if a precious medicine isn't refined into pills, its effects are pretty much the same.

But after looking at the panel of the Crimson Blood Ganoderma, he suddenly realized that there really are differences between different precious medicines!
