Chapter 17 Knife
"That's great, that's great. Thanks to you."

Niu Dewang held Yang Liang's hand and shook it vigorously. He was so excited that his nose burst into tears.

"My master, my master..."

Yang Liang wanted to break away, but suddenly found that Niu Dewang's hand was cold and hot at times. He stretched out his palm and put it on his forehead. His forehead was as hot as a piece of coal.

"Isn't my boss sick from fright?"

After this idea came to his mind, Yang Liang subconsciously felt it was funny, and at the same time, he felt a bit contemptuous.

He was also a landowner, but he was so timid that a wild boar scared him.

It seems that this landowner is not that good either.

"Master, don't be afraid, we will go back right away."

"Go back, go back quickly, go back right away!" Niu Dewang said tremblingly.

Yang Liang brought the little donkey back and put it on the donkey cart again. He found that the axle was somewhat unfastened, so he lifted the carriage and readjusted it.

"A Liang, that wild boar won't come back again."

Niu Dewang climbed into the car, Yang Liang raised his whip gently, and the donkey cart slowly walked home again.

When we were about to arrive at Niujia Village, we saw swaying torches ahead.

"My lord, my lord..."

Zhao Quan led a group of long-term workers and accompanied the old lady of the landowner. When he saw the donkey cart driven by Yang Liang, he rushed over in one breath.

"How's it going? Why are you back now?"

"Did something happen on the road?"

"It's nothing." Yang Liang waved his hand and said, "I encountered a wild boar on the road, and my boss was a little frightened."

"Wild boar!"

The landowner's mother-in-law gasped and almost fainted on the spot.

When people helped her up, she rushed into the car again.

"Master, are you okay? Are you injured?"

Niu Dewang was helped out. Seeing so many familiar faces, he calmed down a little.

"Master is really amazing."

"When encountering a vicious beast, he was able to escape unscathed."

"Just like those legendary heroes who slayed tigers and subdued dragons."

Everyone was flattering each other, Niu Dewang's face brightened slightly, he waved his hands and said, "It's nothing."

Ouch!

His knees buckled and he almost fell to the ground.

Everyone worked hard to help him back to the Niu family compound.

Seeing this scene, Yang Liang subconsciously touched his nose. At the same time, a system prompt sounded in his ears:
[Mission completed, reward: 10 destiny coins]

It was not easy for me to get these 10 destiny coins, and I almost lost my life.

After this incident, Yang Liang had a deeper understanding of the system. There are no free benefits in the world, and risks are always proportional to benefits.

He turned around and led the donkey back to the hay house.

In the dead of night, Yang Liang took out the iron knife hidden in his sleeve.

Over time, the handle of the knife has completely rotted away and the blade is also somewhat rusty.

Yang Liang twisted a piece of hemp rope in the forage house, wrapped it firmly around the handle of the knife, and sharpened it with the whetstone in the forage house.

The red rust was washed away, and the blade gradually became brighter, revealing a faint murderous aura.

Somehow, Yang Liang immediately felt that this was a knife that had killed people.

He held it in his hand and looked at it. This was the treasure the system called. He didn't know what it had to do with the black butterfly Zhao Quan mentioned.

However, did the system send the wrong task? I am a farmer, so the treasures given to me should be hoes, sickles and the like.

blah blah blah.

The sound of footsteps sounded in his ears. Now Yang Liang's perception was very sharp. He reacted immediately and stuffed the knife into the haystack beside him.

Almost as soon as he hid, Zhao Quan opened the door and came in from the outside. "A-Liang, how are you? A-Liang, are you okay?"

Yang Liang half-sit up and looked weak: "I'm fine. Thank you Uncle Quan for your concern."

"Thanks to you this time. The master has already said that if you hadn't lured the wild boar away, you two would have suffered." Zhao Quandao: "The master specially asked me to come over to see you, and also asked me to tell you that in the future you will Be a professional coachman, and also be a bodyguard for the old lady."

Yang Liang's eyes lit up and he said, "Then I won't have to do the work in the fields from now on, right?"

"How's that going to work?"

Zhao Quan patted Yang Liang on the shoulder and said, "If you don't do anything, all your strength will be wasted."

Actually, I don’t care that much about waste.

I thought it was a good thing, but it turned out that in addition to the original job, plus the work of the coachman, the coachman had to work part-time as a bodyguard.

"By the way, these are the herbs my wife asked me to bring you. You should also cook them to relieve your shock."

Zhao Quan handed over a package of medicinal materials.

"I'm sorry that my wife is still thinking about me." Yang Liang said without any yin or yang.

"You must take it as soon as possible." Zhao Quan warned before leaving: "This is the anti-fetal medicine that the young lady took last year. If you don't take it, you will grow hair."

Yang Liang: "..."

……

After Zhao Quan left, Yang Liang took out the knife again, holding it heavy in his hand. Yang Liang waved it twice, feeling that he had taken advantage of it.

I just sharpened it twice, and the knife was already somewhat sharp.

The mind is ruthless and the murderous intention arises.

Yang Liang looked at the package of medicinal materials on the ground, and he felt an urge in his heart to rush into the Niu family compound, stab him one at a time, twice at a time, and shout "Those who stand in my way will die."

Wouldn't it be nice to do this, and don't do long-term work that is hard work anymore?

He rubbed the blade with his fingers, suddenly unwrapped the straw paper wrapping the medicinal ingredients, then bit his finger and squeezed out two drops of blood on the blade.

He clenched the knife tightly and printed the blood on the straw paper. He turned it over and looked at it, revealing a blood butterfly spreading its wings and about to fly. There were three big characters on it: kill, kill, kill!

Could it be that this knife comes from the former thief Black Butterfly.

Yang Liang looked at it for a long time, but couldn't see any clues. He shook his head and threw the papyrus out of the window.

Then, Yang Liang opened the system panel and checked his attribute information.

Name: Yang Liang

Occupation: farmer

Yangshou: 17/71.8
Professional talent: Don’t know whether to live or die

Deputy job: thief

Destiny Coin: 73
He completed two tasks in one day and received 20 destiny coins. Although there were some risks, the result was satisfactory to Yang Liang.

Once you have accumulated enough destiny coins, you can abandon your current career and choose a career that earns more, contributes less, and has a bright future.

After witnessing the gathering of a group of people gathered in the pavilion today, Yang Liangcai realized that there is still a lot of happiness in this world, and the only way out is to plow the fields.

He browsed occupations that were similar to his own on the system panel:

[Hunter]: 88 destiny coins

[Bandit]: 99 Destiny Coins

[Scholar]: 150 destiny coins

[Martial Arts Apprentice]: 180 Destiny Coins

……

According to Yang Liang's understanding of the system, the system issues tasks based on occupations.

My current occupation is a farmer, and the system has been issuing some farming tasks.

If you change jobs and become a hunter, the system will naturally issue hunting tasks.

Yang Liang originally wanted to change his job to become a martial arts apprentice. Since there are immortal cultivators in this world, it may not be impossible to take the path of becoming an immortal through martial arts.

But he had always been poor in literature and rich in martial arts, and now he was so poor that even as a martial artist he couldn't afford meat.
