Hawkers and Peddlers, Pulling Carts and Selling Drinks

Grade B superior Technique Method.

Only when his abilities became almost unparalleled in Shu County did Zhang Xuezhou realize the status of the Supreme Purity True Technique as a second-grade superior technique.

Just as he had previously felt that Dong Zhongshu's Technique Method were complex but not particularly powerful, Zhang Xuezhou's judgment stemmed from his having witnessed too many top-tier cultivators and too many top-tier techniques.

Compared to his broader perspective, Dong Zhongshu was almost omnipotent, paled in comparison, while Zhang Xuezhou had no concept of his own abilities.

Zhang Xuezhou belatedly realized that he had to admit there were many places in the world far inferior to the Sacred Land, and that he was not exactly a nobody in these places either.

The strongest Technique Method user in Shu County is Wen Weng, while the strongest martial artist is Dong Zhongshu, who is proficient in both literature and martial arts.

Below them were two Body Transformation Realm Technique Method cultivators specializing in magic, as well as several True Spirit Realm martial artists such as Master Zhao and Master Zhang, and also a Consciousness Creation Realm martial artist.

If we move to the next position, it will be Zhang Xuezhou, Zhang Shu, Zhao Liang, and others' turn.

The ranking based on cultivation realm is one thing, but the techniques and Law Treasure controlled by cultivators lead to another, more practical and realistic ranking.

Zhang Xuezhou's performance in this ranking is not bad; in fact, his abilities even surpass those of others who are at a higher level than him.

For example, his techniques, such as his magic flute and other magical Law Treasure.

In Shu County, no one could replace him with similar abilities.

This is also the main reason why Wen Weng looked troubled and wanted to keep Zhang Xuezhou, and why Dong Zhongshu also spoke up in his defense. And Zhang Xuezhou did indeed have the ability to win over Master Zhao.

He figured out his own position and quickly let go of his urgency for money.

As the top student in the psychology theory courses at the Canglan Academy, and having been exposed to some pseudo-psychology, Zhang Xuezhou was able to uncover his corresponding value once he had a clear understanding of his own position.

At least within Shu County, he shouldn't be in a hurry; others should be the ones in a hurry.

For example, Wen Weng, Dong Zhongshu, and even Master Zhao, who suffered a great loss.

I'll set up a stall there tomorrow!

Zhang Xuezhou didn't just go to anyone's house to offer to treat their injuries after hearing the news, which makes it difficult to distinguish whether his actions were purposeful or purely charitable, and may even be mistaken for a benefit provided by the prefectural government.

The more proactive he is, the cheaper the reward will be, and the reward may even remain just talk rather than actually going into his pocket.

These past two days, Zhang Xuezhou has been led by the nose by money, and in his haste, he has set a number of bad examples.

Aside from having no regrets about providing the flute to Wen Weng in time, almost all his other actions were wrong, making him practically a volunteer.

To shift from a passive to an active role, Zhang Xuezhou simply needs to maintain a calm mindset.

Once he sets up his stall and clearly states his intention to charge, he gains sufficient initiative.

Having thought things through, Zhang Xuezhou showed no sign of being in a hurry.

"I always said that a virtuous monk should be studying diligently, not peddling goods like those common laborers!"

Upon seeing Zhang Xuezhou, Dong Zhongshu could no longer mention leaving Shu County for medical treatment or asking for payment. Instead, Zhang Xuezhou chatted and laughed with everyone, which made Dong Zhongshu grumble incessantly.

"Yes, study hard. Heaven and earth possess a vast and righteous spirit, which manifests itself in various forms..."

Zhang Xuezhou slowed down and became unhurried, even engaging in a back-and-forth debate with Dong Zhongshu.

His mental state was already abnormal; he rarely needed sleep and his energy was so abundant that even Dong Zhongshu couldn't keep up.

The group continued to patrol and inspect the area near the city walls of Shu County, while also reassuring the people, until the morning star was high in the sky, at which point things gradually calmed down.

Zhang Xuezhou followed Dong Zhongshu and the others back to the prefectural governor's mansion. Dong Zhongshu, feeling sleepy, lay back down on the bed, while Zhang Xuezhou began to busy himself with setting up his stall.

Specializing in treating superficial skin injuries

After much deliberation, Zhang Xuezhou finally wrote five characters on a wooden board.

The Supreme Purity True Technique is not omnipotent; if given some illnesses or injuries that are not specifically targeted by him, he would truly be powerless to help.

When it was light again, Zhang Xuezhou took a bite of the failed Grain Avoidance pills, drank some water, and then carried the wooden plank outside.

Many were filled with anxiety last night, and some didn't even sleep a wink.

By daybreak, the city of Shu was already bustling with people.

The main tasks are to take stock of household clutter and eliminate any remaining venomous snakes. Next comes the daily eating, buying and selling, and other livelihood activities, with some stalls and shops that need to open early starting their business.

Zhang Xuezhou carried the wooden plank to a spot not far from Wang Er Ermazi's pharmacy, and then erected the plank.

"You also treat illnesses here?"

Wen Weng is right; quite a few people stumbled and got injured in the dark last night.

Zhang Xuezhou had only been sitting for a quarter of an hour when a young man in a blue robe came over with his face covered and asked him something.

"Treats only superficial injuries!"

Zhang Xuezhou pointed to the wooden board.

"So these words only treat superficial injuries," the young man sighed. "I thought it meant 'cure all diseases'."

"Treat only superficial injuries; don't treat anything more!"

Zhang Xuezhou waved his hand.

Looking at the sign he had written, he felt a sudden, inexplicable hatred for the absurdly high illiteracy rate.

Given the literacy rate in Shu County, it would be considered good if one out of ten people seeking medical treatment could recognize the characters on this sign.

"How did you treat this illness? I got slapped twice last night. Do you think this counts as a superficial injury?"

Wang Er's pharmacy hadn't opened yet. The young man examined the wooden board several times, then stopped pondering the words on it and asked about the important business he had come to do.

"Let me see where you got hit!"

Zhang Xuezhou gestured with his hand.

This made the young man release his right hand from his face.

"Yesterday, a thieving woman was using a pitchfork to kill a snake. The pitchfork suddenly swung at my face, but it was too dark for me to see her clearly!"

The iron fork and the clothes fork are quite similar, but the iron fork has two prongs at the front, which corresponds to a three-pronged fork.

There was no blood on the young man's face, but it was swollen; half of his face was swollen.

Normally, swelling is not an injury that can be diagnosed using the Supreme Purity True Technique.

Zhang Xuezhou pondered for a few seconds and decided that unless he deliberately caused the injury, he could not use the Supreme Purity True Technique to heal the other party and relieve the swelling and pain at the same time.

The young man mumbled something, and Zhang Xuezhou reached out and touched his face, causing him to cry out in pain.

"Ten and a half taels of silver, you'll have to help me promote it later."

Zhang Xuezhou glanced at the young man's clothes, pondered for a moment, and then offered him a price.

"Ten and a half taels? That's expensive! I can brew two doses of medicine for less than three and a half taels. Why should I help you shout it out?"

After glancing at the wooden sign Zhang Xuezhou had erected, the young man looked at the pharmacy that hadn't yet opened for business.

He felt that Zhang Xuezhou's fees were a bit high, but he really couldn't bear the pain of his swollen face, so he had no choice but to agree to the request, and then groped around his waist for a while.

After taking out ten and a half taels of silver, he sat down opposite Zhang Xuezhou.

What are you doing with that knife?

Seeing Zhang Xuezhou also reach into his waistband and finally pull out a short knife, the young man vaguely sensed that something was amiss.

But before his ominous premonition had completely subsided, he suddenly felt sticky blood spurting out of his face.

The Deer-Slaying Blade was so sharp that he barely felt any pain, but the long-accumulated blood clots and tissue fluid found a way to drain out.

Zhang Xuezhou sheathed his sword, squeezed the other's swollen face, and then pressed down with the Supreme Purity True Technique.

Ah~

The young man's cries of pain turned into comfortable groans just seconds later.

"You've mostly recovered. Your voice is loud and clear, so you can help me promote it!"

Facial bruising and swelling are not considered a medical condition in the military region, so Zhang Xuezhou had to inflict additional injuries on the other person during treatment.

After a bloodletting treatment, the patient's face basically returned to normal.

Zhang Xuezhou's speed in treating illnesses and injuries was so fast that even young people didn't notice.

He touched his now smooth face, feeling as if the pain he had suffered was just a dream.

"These ten and a half taels of silver are worth it!"

Compared to simply taking a couple of herbal decoctions and waiting for a slow recovery, Zhang Xuezhou's healing was nothing short of miraculous.

The young man, who had never witnessed such healing abilities before, was astonished, yet filled with immense joy.

"A deity has come to save people! A deity who only treats superficial wounds has used magic to heal them!"

Before Zhang Xuezhou could even give him instructions on how to promote the product, he started shouting loudly.
