43: Golden belt for killing and arson
Han Yi first picked up the long sword used by Wu Awei.
This silver sword was narrow at the bottom and wide at the top, with a blue jade stone inlaid in the hilt, emitting light even in the dark night.
Furthermore, when this sword was forged, it seemed to be mixed with some kind of silver Ore, appearing silvery-white throughout, looking incredibly sharp.
He pulled off a strand of hair, placed it on the blade, gave it a gentle blow, and silently, the hair was split into two by the blade!
"Good sword, good sword!"
"It truly is a good sword that can cut hair with a blow and slice metal like mud!"
"Even if this sword is not a so-called Yellow Rank Treasure Item, it should be a rare Hundred-Refined Weapon among Mortal Rank items!"
The more Han Yi looked at it, the more he liked it. After picking up the sword, he couldn't put it down and played with it.
Han Yi also felt a lingering fear. Fortunately, he had just gripped the sword body with his iron gauntlets, otherwise, if Wu Awei's sword thrust had landed on someone, even an immortal would have a hard time saving them!
He glanced at his stats. When holding the lanyu sword, his stats changed from '42~47' when empty-handed to '48~60'.
Although the chain iron gauntlets were damaged as a result, it was still quite worth it to exchange them for this lanyu sword!
Han Yi squatted beside the corpse, used the lanyu sword to cut open Wu Awei's clothes, and pulled out a money bag, a bamboo tube, several somewhat empty-looking pouches, and also searched out a porcelain bottle from his cuff.
"Is this all there is?" Han Yi frowned tightly.
What about the promised Profound Rank martial art, the As Shadow Legs?
Without a Profound Rank martial art, having a sword technique book would also be good, although it's said that 'swords and knives have been inseparable since ancient times'.
Han Yi could barely use this lanyu sword flexibly with his Basic Knife Technique, but wouldn't it be icing on the cake if he had a sword technique book!
He, not believing in evil, slashed Wu Awei's clothes into pieces.
Clang~
The lanyu sword seemed to have hit something hard.
"Hmm?"
Just as Han Yi was about to reach out and grab it, he paused, and instead used the lanyu sword to pry out the hard object.
"This is?"
He saw a palm-sized object wrapped in a layer of black cloth.
After Han Yi unwrapped the layers of black cloth.
A jade statue of Maitreya Buddha, wearing a kasaya, bare-chested, smiling warmly, and sitting cross-legged with a cloth bag in hand, came into his sight.
"A small jade Buddha?"
Han Yi was a bit confused. How could a flower thief have something like this on him?
These days, even flower thieves believe in Buddhism?
Han Yi casually picked up the small jade Buddha. He only felt an extremely warm and moist touch, and even a hint of coolness seeping into his body, making his spirit instantly refreshed.
The fatigue Han Yi felt from the intense fight late at night instantly vanished!
A thought arose in his mind: "This small jade Buddha looks crystal clear, and holding it has extraordinary effects. Although it doesn't increase overall strength, it's definitely not an ordinary item!"
Han Yi quickly put the small jade Buddha into his embrace.
As for Wu Awei's corpse, after Han Yi confirmed multiple times that there was nothing else on it, he stood up.
"Awei, I'm sorry, but if you have to blame someone, blame yourself for being lustful and insisting on being a flower thief!"
Han Yi drew the sword from its sheath, gave the long sword a twist, and the lanyu sword, which could slice metal like mud, cut through like tofu.
*Splurt*!
Wu Awei's head was instantly separated. Han Yi quickly took out a black cloth bag and put Wu Awei's head inside.
There was no other way. The Martial Alliance didn't have a method for verifying mission completion that was as timely, advanced, and sophisticated as the Bureau of Unusual Matters. They could only rely on the head to prove the bounty was completed and then collect the reward silver.
This black cloth bag was also given to Han Yi by the official when he asked for the wanted poster. The official said it was made with special Materials and could effectively prevent blood from seeping out.
Han Yi was originally lamenting how thoughtful the Martial Alliance's service was, even considering the aftermath.
But then he thought, if everyone took bloody heads to the Martial Alliance to turn in missions, not to mention how many children would be scared along the way from the city gate to Rui De Ward, just imagining the simple act of blood getting on the ground would be very difficult to deal with...
After Han Yi picked up the black cloth bag and looked at Wu Awei's headless corpse, he thought for a moment, drew the lanyu sword, and dug a deep pit more than one person wide beside it.
It's better to bury Wu Awei. After all, the dead deserve respect!
And speaking of which, the lanyu sword's narrow-bottom, wide-top shape made digging soil exceptionally effortless and convenient.
"Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. Awei, today I've laid you to rest. Try to be a good person in your next life!"
While Han Yi was muttering, he pushed Wu Awei's body into the pit and filled it with soil, burying him.
*Ding dong*!
Underworld Merit +1
Han Yi didn't know if it was his imagination, but he seemed to hear a *ding dong* sound. Regardless, after handling Wu Awei's burial, Han Yi felt refreshed and invigorated!
From now on, I still need to do more good deeds... Han Yi thought to himself.
——————————
*Splash, splash*
Han Yi found a babbling stream flowing through the mountains and forest. He used his night clothes to wrap up the bottles and jars he had searched from Wu Awei, and carried them to the stream bank, holding them through the clothing.
Han Yi had seen clearly when Wu Awei blew the anesthetic smoke from the ridge of the roof into the house just now.
As for the pouches, bottles, and jars searched from Wu Awei's body, Han Yi naturally didn't dare to open them easily. He planned to process them before seeing what was inside.
He directly threw the night clothes package into the stream and shook it vigorously for a while before taking it out again.
This way, even if there were any aphrodisiacs, poisons, or similar things on Wu Awei, they would be diluted and washed away by the stream.
As for this piece of night clothing, it had already become ragged in the previous fight, so it was just right for recycling.
Fortunately, beneath Han Yi's night clothes, there was still a layer of lizard skin armor, otherwise, he might have had to run around naked.
*Plop*
There wasn't much in the money bag. Han Yi counted, and there were probably a dozen or so taels of broken silver.
But it could be considered unexpected wealth. He put the silver into his own purse.
"However, these few pouches probably don't need to be looked at..."
Han Yi looked at the small pouches that were steaming after getting wet.
"These pouches should contain lime..."
Lime releases heat when it encounters water, basic junior high chemistry knowledge. It's true that if you study physics, chemistry, and math well, you won't be afraid to travel anywhere.
He didn't expect that after coming to another world, he could still use his chemistry knowledge from his previous life... Han Yi was quite speechless.
Let's still look at what's inside this porcelain bottle.
After Han Yi pulled out the stopper, an intoxicating smell similar to heather rushed straight to his head.
"Cough, cough..."
"What kind of strange thing is this..."
Inside the porcelain bottle were several pink block-like substances. It was vaguely discernible that it should have contained pink powder before.
"Could this be the legendary drug that makes women aroused..." Han Yi's expression was strange, and he casually threw the porcelain bottle into the stream.
"Wu Awei, playing such dirty tricks, your death is truly not unwarranted!"
Han Yi picked out another pouch from the pile and casually untied it.
"This is..."
His eyes grew brighter and brighter, as if he had seen something good!
