Chapter 8: Opportunities to Earn Extra Money
The atmosphere in Da Sheng is open, which is somewhat similar to the Tang Dynasty in the world before Su Yu traveled through time.

Although it was ancient times, women dressed very boldly and it was common to see women wearing clothes that half exposed their breasts.

The makeup of the woman in the white dress is not excessive in this world.

But her beauty and charm are not comparable to those of ordinary women.

But no one knew why she stopped in front of the door and turned back to smile at Su Yu.

Is it really because he is like a firefly in the darkness, so bright and outstanding?

Even though he was wearing an old, patched robe that had been washed so much that it turned white, it still couldn't hide his handsomeness?
Shuiyue Tower was under the jurisdiction of the Jiaofangsi, and was the most luxurious and upscale entertainment venue in the capital of Dasheng. It was said that all the women there were extremely beautiful and proficient in the arts of music, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Among them, the most famous is the courtesan Qin Shuanghua.

It is said that she had only been on the scene for less than half a month, but she had already won the title of the most beautiful courtesan in Kyoto because of her stunning beauty and talent.

Because of Miss Qin Shuang's fame, the traffic in front of Shuiyue Tower was blocked by carriages and horses every day. Countless dignitaries, playboys in the capital, and even wealthy businessmen spent huge sums of money just to have a chance to have fun with her.

But the consumption in Shuiyue Tower has also risen sharply. It is said that the minimum consumption just to enter is ten taels of silver!
This is not the cost of overnight stay, but the cost of having a seat inside and being able to sit in the hall and drink!

But I don’t know what the name of this woman in white is?
Su Yu thought about it, weighed his wallet again, and could only raise his head with some pride.

Women will only affect the speed at which I draw my sword!

He turned around, leaving behind the jealous and envious gazes of the men, and walked quickly towards the Demon Slaying Department.

Several young men who painted corpses had arrived at the gate of the Demon Slaying Division. They were wearing tattered robes just like Su Yu. Some of them were even mutilated and looked even more wretched.

Su Yu stood among them. Although he was also wearing an old robe, he stood out from the crowd.

After a while, a middle-aged man in a black robe with gray hair came out, holding a list of corpse painters in his hand.

This middle-aged man is called Qin Shimiao. He is a fifth-rank demon painter of the Demon Slaying Division and the immediate superior of these young corpse painters.

Although demon slayers and demon painters do not have official positions, they do have ranks, but the highest is only the fourth rank.

Qin Shimiao is already considered the top star in the Demon Slaying Division. He was not the one to call out names in the past, but today, no one knows why.

His eyes swept across the faces of the many young corpse painters in front of him, and finally landed on Su Yu. After a faint glance, he unfolded the roster in his hand and read:
"Zhu Ganglie!"

"To!"

"Sun Dasheng!"

"arrive……"

After calling the roll, Qin Shimiao put away the roster:

"There is nothing to do today. Everyone stay in the office and wait for instructions."

After saying this, he turned around and took two steps, but suddenly turned back to look at Su Yu:
"Su Yu, you have been in the Demon Slayer Division for ten years, right?"

Facing his immediate superior, Su Yu could only answer respectfully:

"Yes!"

"Your former master was Yan Xu?"

"Exactly!"

Qin Shimiao nodded and said thoughtfully:
"It's been a while since Yan Xu died, right?"

Su Yu also nodded.

His former master Yan Xu was also a demon painter, but his rank was much lower than Qin Shimiao's. He died in the line of duty more than half a year ago while accompanying the Demon Slaying Division on a mission.

Qin Shimiao looked at Su Yu carefully, smiled and said:

"I heard that you were almost killed by a demonic spirit when you were drawing corpses yesterday? You're pretty tough!"

But Su Yu didn't laugh.

Theoretically, the former Su Yu was indeed dead. The current Su Yu was another person who had traveled from another world.

After saying this, Qin Shimiao looked at Su Yu again, turned around and walked into the inner courtyard of the Demon Slaying Division.

A dark-skinned boy with a slightly lame leg came up to Su Yu and said with a chuckle:

"Su Yu, it looks like your luck is about to change!"

Su Yu smiled and said nothing.

Qin Shimiao just said a few more words to me, which didn't mean anything, let alone a change of luck.

But obviously many young corpse painters standing by didn't think so.

The look in their eyes when they looked at Su Yu was filled with confusion, envy and even jealousy.

Although the demon painter also originated from a corpse painter, those who were able to grow up from a corpse painter to become a demon painter are extremely rare in the Demon Slaying Bureau, and most of the corpse painters will only become consumables.

Therefore, demon painters and demon slayers usually have a very cold attitude towards the young corpse painter. After all, no one is willing to invest too much emotion in a consumable that will die at any moment.

Qin Shimiao, as a demon painter, seemed to have a different eye on Su Yu today. No wonder these young corpse painters were envious and jealous.

A tall and fat young man who painted corpses came over and said with a fake smile:

"Su Yu, it seems like you're really lucky, why don't you treat us at noon today!"

The boy's name was Sun Dasheng. He didn't have any physical disabilities, but because he was tall and strong, he was very domineering among the corpse painters. When they were apprentices together, he often bullied and blackmailed Su Yu.

But today's Su Yu has become a person in another world, so it is impossible for him to be submissive like his previous incarnation. He turned around and looked at him calmly, saying coldly:
"Mr. Qin just said a few words to me, and I have to treat you? Then when you went out with Mr. Sun a few days ago, shouldn't you have treated us to a brothel to have some fun?"

Although the corpse painters of the Demon Slayer Bureau can only draw the shapes of demons and ghosts, if someone in the folk dies under strange circumstances and they suspect a ghost is haunting them, they will ask the demon slayers and corpse painters to draw the corpse, seal the evil spirit in the drawing paper and then burn it to help it pass away.

After drawing a corpse, you will receive a reward. The boss will not collect this money, so it can be considered a good extra income.

But this kind of thing doesn't happen often, and it rarely happens to ordinary young corpse painters!

It is said that this Sun Dasheng is related to Mr. Sun, the demon painter. Therefore, Mr. Sun took him with him last time when he painted corpses for someone. But after he came back, he took the money and ate and drank lavishly, but did not even think of inviting any of his colleagues.

At this time, Su Yu directly revealed the matter, which made Sun Dasheng speechless and even angry.

He frowned and looked at the boy who was usually so timid in front of him, and one hand had already started to roll up his sleeves:

"I haven't seen you for a day. It seems that you have grown up. Do you want me to teach you what the rules are?"

Su Yu looked at him without fear. Although his hands were still hanging at his sides, he was already gathering strength.

Now that he has quietly entered the Bone Tempering Realm, Sun Dasheng will naturally not be his opponent. If the other party attacks directly, Su Yu will probably have to find a way to hold back his strength so as not to kill him and bring trouble to himself.

After all, Sun Dasheng has some relationship with the Demon Painter, but Su Yu has no relatives here. His only master died more than half a year ago, and he has no one to support him!
Sun Dasheng was surprised and angry when he saw that Su Yu showed no fear. Just as he was about to raise his fist to attack, he suddenly heard Qin Shimiao's voice:

"What are you doing? Are you too free today?"

Sun Dasheng turned around and saw Qin Shimiao and a middle-aged fat man in fine clothes standing not far away, looking at him and Su Yu.

Sun Dasheng quickly stopped talking, forced a smile and said:

"No, Mr. Qin, I'm just studying skills with Su Yu!"

After saying that, he quickly turned around and slipped aside.

Qin Shimiao brought the fat man to Su Yu:

"Su Yu, someone in Mr. Chen's family has passed away, and he wants someone to paint the body of the deceased. You can go there!"

Su Yu was stunned when he heard this.

The opportunity to earn extra money came so soon?
