Start with the Soul Forge

Chapter 18 18. High-quality wild beast meat is naturally expensive
Now that I'm here, I must give it a try.

After possessing the Soul Furnace, Mo Hao became quite interested in all acts of killing. He always wanted to know how much Qi and blood strength the life in front of him could provide.

When Mo Hao approached the employee named Datou, he was not surprised by his approach. He pointed at the corpse of the tooth pig with a knife in his only hand and began to explain:
"Pay attention to this part, the midline connecting the pig's head and back. When the pig is charging, this place is the most vulnerable. If the knife is sharp enough and the arm is steady enough, it can be inserted into the pig, allowing it to kill itself."

"Also, when slaughtering, you need to make sure you use the knife at the time when the pig is at its fastest speed. If you use the knife too fast or too slow, the pig can change its direction if it is not at its fastest speed. But it cannot change its direction when it is at its fastest speed."

"The most important thing is to avoid being stabbed by the tusks of the tusk."

As he spoke, Datou chopped off the tusks of the tusk with a butcher knife and handed them to Mo Hao on the knife.

Mo Hao saw clearly that the top of the fang was prismatic and had a blood groove, just like the three-edged military thorn that naturally grew on the tusk.

If you get stabbed by this thing, the injury will definitely not be light.

"Don't get stabbed. It will take at least half an hour to get to the nearest hospital."

Mo Hao nodded and took the knife for slaughtering pigs. The blade was two palms long and one palm wide. It was just an ordinary pig-killing knife.

It feels quite heavy in the hand, and its weight is not light. It is obviously made of different material from ordinary butcher knives.

Seeing that Mo Hao was ready, Datou didn't say anything else. He walked aside and didn't know how to operate. The door slowly opened and released another pig.

The first thing the tooth pig saw when it came out of the cage was Mo Hao. Out of the wild beast's instinct, it directly attacked Mo Hao.

On a flat open space, nothing can withstand the charge of the tooth pig. Anything that dares to stand in its way, even a car moving at full speed with the accelerator pressed to the bottom, will be pierced through by the beast's brutal explosive power.

Except for Mo Hao himself who was regarded as the target.

A knife was accurately inserted from top to bottom into the center line connecting the pig's head and back. With the help of the kinetic energy generated by the pig's charge, its back was easily completely cut open.

Kill with one strike.

The smell of blood was even more pungent than before, but Mo Hao did not feel any nausea.

At this moment, he only felt a strong surge of energy and blood rushing into his body, simply, roughly and directly increasing the quality and quantity of his energy and blood.

The energy and blood provided by a tooth pig is even stronger than that of the thugs from the Tielian Gang who were killed yesterday.

Datou walked to the dead pig, checked the wound on its body with one arm, and then reported to Fang Chou who was walking over, "Killed with one blow, A-grade meat."

Perhaps it was because Mo Hao did it so neatly, the usually taciturn Big Head even expressed his opinion, "He has sharp five senses, steady hands, and is not resistant to blood. He is a good seedling. He can help a lot if he stays."

"The Mo family's kid won't be that bad." Fang Chou replied to Datou, then looked at Mo Hao, "You've passed the test. Find time to come three times a week and slaughter ten pigs."

The fact that Mo Hao was able to kill the pig without any injury on his first try has already proved his ability.

"Every time you kill a pig, you will be paid according to the quality of the meat. C-grade meat is 200, B-grade meat is 300, and A-grade meat is 500."

"Is there a problem? If yes, you can come to work tomorrow."

Fang Chou's efficiency was just like his appearance, he was swift and decisive, and his words were decisive, leaving almost no time for Mo Hao to bargain.

But he didn't need to bargain. Although the price Fang Chou offered was not the highest, it was not too low either.

Mo Hao naturally had no objection to this decision, and at the same time, he did not ask about his intention to become a formal employee here. When Fang Chou met his elders, he knew that if he dared to show that the college entrance examination was not important and wanted to work here, there was a 90% chance that he would be kicked out by Fang Chou.

Fang Chou could accept Mo Hao doing odd jobs here, but he would never accept Mo Hao's plan to give up the college entrance examination.

"No problem." Mo Hao nodded and agreed, "Let me try a few more times. I had some feeling just now, but I didn't grasp it well."

Of course it was a lie that he didn't have a good grasp of the situation. He just wanted to kill a few more pigs to strengthen himself.

"It's up to you." Fang Chou ignored him and turned around and left the place.

On the other side, the big head smiled and said, "Five more pigs will be killed in the pen today. If you are tired, you can change people."

Killing a tooth pig is a physical job, especially if you want high-quality wild beast meat, you must face the tooth pig's most powerful first charge, which consumes both physical and mental strength very quickly.

For Datou, killing pigs is indeed a hard job. Now that Mo Hao wants to take over this job, it is naturally a relief for him.

There are five tusk pigs. According to Datou's estimation, it would be good enough if Mo Hao could deal with the remaining two.

He could use this time to recover his strength and get off work early today.

Mo Hao didn't say much, but he had already made up his mind that he would not give up any of the remaining five pigs.

As the gate slowly opened, another tusk appeared in the open space, but this time, before it had time to adapt to the sunlight outside, the butcher knife had already accurately pierced into the vital part of its back.

It would be a waste of time to let the Yaboo charge, so Mo Hao chose to kill it before the Yaboo charged.

In half an hour, Mo Hao killed all the remaining five tusk pigs, which made Datou laugh.

All five tusk pigs were killed, and all he needed to do was cut them into large pieces and send them to the warehouse.

This kind of work is naturally not difficult for him, and he does not need Mo Hao's help. He can get off work an hour and a half earlier today.

After asking if there were any more tooth pigs, Mo Hao left the slaughterhouse.

Zhang Xueqing was waiting in the guard room at the door. After all, the smell of blood on the open space was so strong that it made people feel uncomfortable.

After seeing Mo Hao coming out, the two walked outside and planned to hail a taxi to go home.

While waiting for the car, Mo Hao suddenly said thank you, "Thank you."

He knew that he was able to enter the slaughterhouse today entirely thanks to Zhang Xueqing. If she hadn't brought him here, he would most likely get nothing.

After all, he has no memory of his previous life and basically has no [connections] to speak of.

If Mo Hao came by himself, there was a high probability that he wouldn't even be able to get through the door.

"A sister naturally has to help her brother, don't you think?"

I don’t know whether what Zhang Xueqing was asking was referring to the sister helping her brother, or to his position as a younger brother.
