Chapter 17: The funniest joke I've heard this year

Butcher Zhang's eyes lit up when he saw the wolf on the ground.

This is a snow wolf in excellent condition!

Even an old hunter who squats in the deep mountains and old forests all year round may not be able to hunt one a year.

After looking at the snow wolf, he raised his eyes and looked at the first year of junior high who seemed to be squatting on the ground and seemed to be worried.

I knew in my heart that looking at the dress of their group, they must not be from a professional hunter's background.

It must have been lucky to pick up a snow wolf that was injured and about to die.

"Little girl, I don't think you should waste this good fur, so let's buy it for five taels of silver, how about you let me peel the skin?"

Seeing that she had no idea what to do, he dared to conclude that if this wolf skin was taken from her hand, it would not be sold for five taels of silver at all.

"Not for sale."

Chu replied without raising his head.

"You must have come from other places, we often hunt here hunters, and no one doesn't know about Zhang Butcher."

"This butcher is our most famous butcher, and all the big beasts we hunt are skinned by him."

Several people on the side looked at each other silently, no matter what they said, no one responded.

"Well, ten taels of silver! I bought it, how? ”

Seeing that Chu Yi was unmoved, Zhang Butcher gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, and gave a high price of ten taels of silver.

There was a sudden exclamation of surprise all around.

"Wow! Ten taels of silver! It seems that Zhang Butcher is determined to get this wolf skin! ”

"Don't you don't know what to do, the skin picked off by the butcher Zhang will definitely be sold for a good price, and then let him share some more of your money."

Several hunters gathered here began to persuade one after another.

They hunt all year round and do not want to see the precious snow wolf fur destroyed in the hands of a layman.

"Do you want me to sell it to you for ten taels of silver?"

Chu Yi finally raised his head and looked at Zhang Butcher incredulously.

Seeing that this little girl was finally moved, Zhang Butcher stroked his beard with a smile, full of pride.

"Yes, ten taels of silver, enough for your whole family to have a good year!"

"If I sell it to you for ten taels of silver, I will lose at least forty taels, so I won't sell it."

Everyone was shocked by Chu Yi's words, and they couldn't react for a long time.

"What did she just say? She loses money? Still losing forty taels? ”

"So, she meant, can the wolf skin she picked up be sold for fifty taels?"

"Hahaha, this is the funniest joke I've ever heard this year, hahahaha......"

The surroundings suddenly laughed and made a big fuss in front of the butcher, which was tantamount to humiliating himself.

"I invited the shopkeeper out and let them all go."

While speaking, the innkeeper had already come to the center of the crowd.

There are people in the shopkeeper's family who have become officials in the court, and there are some connections in the family, and the inn is opened here to facilitate some fur business.

He collected the skins of the hunters and sold them exclusively to the dignitaries, or directly to some high-end fur shops, so he only received the furs of good quality.

And around here, the best peeling kung fu is Zhang Butcher.

Every time he picks up the skin, no matter how big or small, he takes it all.

"Shopkeeper, this little girl said just now, the wolf skin she picked down can be sold for fifty taels!"

Some people around have already repeated what happened to the shopkeeper, and everyone is waiting to see a good show.

"Fifty taels?"

The shopkeeper shook his head with a smile.

"That's the price of tiger skins!"

"This snow wolf skin, if it is picked off by the Zhang butcher, I can take it for thirty taels, but if it is someone else, ......"

The shopkeeper looked at the first year of junior high sitting on the ground and shook his head again.

"Little girl, do you hear me? As long as it is picked up by the butcher, the shopkeeper is willing to pay thirty taels to accept your wolf skin, and if you see it, you can accept it! ”

When the people around saw that the shopkeeper had spoken, they began to persuade bitterly again.

Zhang Butcher stared at this snow wolf for a long time.

"I don't think it's as good as this, let me pick off this skin, the two of us are fifty-five, now you are satisfied, right?"

"Five-five? Oh, my God! This is a price that Zhang Butcher has never given! ”

"Yes! It's usually three seven, two or eight points, and five or five points is really the first time! ”

In fact, they are also distressed by twenty-eight points, but there is no way, the skin they pick up by themselves can't be sold for a good price at all.

Letting Zhang butcher peel the skin, although he made most of the money, but in the end the money he got was more than the money they picked and sold themselves.

Zhang Butcher waved his hand helplessly.

"I'm really sorry for you, I can't help it at this price, I can't bear to watch a good skin being ruined in vain."

"Zhang Butcher has compromised to this one, little girl, you should hurry up!"

"That's it, don't waste time!"

Behind him, Ye Wanwan and a few people nodded in agreement.

Indeed, don't waste time.

Chu Yi smiled at Zhang Butcher, turned the knife in his hand, and stabbed it directly into the wolf's body.

Hiss~

Everyone gasped.

Zhang Butcher couldn't bear to look overdone, looking distressed.

"Alas, on weekdays, some people may not be able to invite Zhang Butcher, this little girl really doesn't know what to do."

"Blind with such a good skin!"

"It's all gone, it's all gone."

"Hey, wait! Look at her knife skills! ”

The crowd was about to disperse when someone suddenly exclaimed.

Everyone looked at the line of sight and couldn't help but widen their eyes.

Even Zhang Butcher had his grief turned into shock, standing in place and standing up little by little.

"This ...... This is, Xingyun Knife! ”

"Is it the knife that cuts everything as smoothly as a mirror, but the knife technique that has been lost for a long time?"

"How is this possible! How could she ......"

Everyone was shocked that the first year of junior high had already peeled half of the skin.

Behind her, Chu Jiu and Ye Wuyun stepped forward in tacit agreement and helped her turn over the wolf body.

It was only then that everyone came to their senses, no wonder she gave her fifteen taels of silver, and she didn't let Zhang Butcher pick up the skin.

Xingyun Knife Method is a divine knife technique from ancient times, and it is said that it was used by medical saints to treat people in the past.

Later, it was learned by the butcher that it was used to peel the skin, but it has been lost in the past hundred years.

And the reason why Zhang Butcher's skin is good is also a little bit of knife handling skills handed down from his ancestors.

The first day of the first year calmly peeled off the entire wolf skin.

This line of cloud knife technique was seen in an ancient medical book before, and the original intention was to cut the skin, cut off the ulcerated or necrotic flesh inside, and then sew the cut flesh together.

However, this knife technique is dangerous, and the slightest mistake will cause the wound to bleed endlessly, and finally die of blood.

Therefore, it is extremely difficult to master the proficiency of the Xingyun knife technique.

At that time, in order to practice her knife skills, she pestered Ye Wuyun and Ye Wanwan every time to go to the mountains and forests to hunt wild animals for her.

In a few moments, the whole skin was completely peeled off.

The fur is really smooth as a mirror, there is not a trace of superfluous flesh and blood, and there is no trace of a knife.

Looking down at the wolf's body again, after the whole skin was peeled off, there was almost no bleeding!
