Chapter 20 - First Blood

B-Dog asked in his heart, "Dog Egg, any skill that you recommend for skinning?"

"Beep, I would recommend Master to buy the "Ox Butcher" knife skill. It was Grade A skill that required 50 mall vouchers. Redeem?"

"That’s so expensive." He had no other better choices though. Since it was a Grade A skill, he redeemed it.

Previously he had exchanged 80 vouchers. After using it, he had 30 vouchers left. Luckily he had gained the popularity which had been exceeding 2 million; thus had earned 9 chances for the Grade D lucky draw. Why not use them to exchange for mall vouchers? By doing so, he would have 120 vouchers, 2 chances of Grade C lucky draw, and 16 skill points.

Due to the tight schedule, he had no time to train the skill. So he spent 5 skill points to level up the "Ox Butcher" knife skill to LV6. Besides, he leveled up his skiing and cooking skills to LV6 respectively.

He had a balance of 7 skill points now!

The skill system was quite complicated. We called LV6 as "the shed". To level up to LV7, you need to use 2 skill points. To level up to LV8, you need to use 4 skill points. To level up to LV9, you need to use 8 skill points. Besides that, the level ups were limited to the Grade D/C/B/A/S skills which were recognized by the system. With Grade D skill, you could upgrade up to the maximum of LV7 only. With Grade C, it was up to LV8 only and the maximum level was increased with such scale.

After learning the "Ox Butcher" knife skill, B-Dog focused on the dead wolf and rabbit again. He felt different, feeling like he had the inborn skill to remove the skin and bone.

He looked at the messages on the pop-up comments which were full of praises. "First blood, congratulations to Lord B-Dog for killing the wolf alone". Besides that, the audience was sending gifts non-stop to him. He was no longer acting cool, smiled, and said, "Erm, this is it. Everyone can see it. Legitimacy belongs to the winner. "Survival of the Fittest" is the surviving rule of nature."

"I have made some mistakes this time. I was in too much of a rush to succeed. I should have scared it away instead of attacking it. It is an individual wolf after all; I could light up a fire or roar to make it flee. I should not have simply thrown the knife. Obviously, my flying blade skill is not up to standards yet and the hunting knife is not suitable for being thrown. I forget to prepare flying blades. Luckily I have two hunting knives."

"At the same time, I have to remind my lovely audiences. If you see wolves in the wild, regardless whether a wolf pack or a lone wolf, do not try to provoke it. You should be hiding. It is impossible to carry something with the smell of blood in the jungle. I do not want to be tracked and followed by all kinds of beasts and animals. Right now, I have to deal with it."

B-Dog turned the wolf body. Now the audiences could see it. The wolf was cut from the throat to the back part of the body. The internal organs were dropping out onto the ground. And it all happened in a flash. How sharp was the knife have to be? How brave and how skillful was he?!

"President Wang treats anchor Chen B-Dog ten Buddha Jumps over the Wall. Everyone, quickly grab the treasure box."

"Freelance Cowboy treats anchor Chen B-Dog ten Buddha Jumps over the Wall. Everyone, quickly grab the treasure box."

"The Zen treats anchor Chen B-Dog twenty Buddha Jumps over the Wall. Everyone, quickly grab the treasure box."

"Zhou B-Ke treats anchor Chen B-Dog twenty Buddha Jumps over the Wall. Everyone, quickly grab the treasure box."

...

"Thank you The Zen for your Buddha Jumps over the Wall."

"Eee, Zhou B-Ke, which Zhou B-Ke? Are you the pretty girl from Singing Diva? Thank you for your Buddha Jumps over the Wall." B-Dog had eagle eyes, he could notice a familiar identity right away.

The audiences were angry, "Principle and Chief Cow are so pitiful. After sending so many Buddha Jumps over the Wall, you cannot even see it. The pretty girl has just sent you one and you are replying her.", "Lord B-Dog, please behave. You should have integrity.", "My mighty B-Ke army.", "B-Ke army is coming to propose."...

Chen B-Dog smiled and denied, "Definitely, I noticed the gift from President and Chief Cow. They do not need my appreciation. I am not lustful. I am just feeling fateful since our names both have "B" in common."

"Great, I accept. I would give 99 marks to this answer, out of one thousand marks.", "You are such a B-role!"…

A pretty girl was holding the mobile phone in a hostel of a university, "Wow, they went off topic. How shameful!" However, she did not leave the broadcast room.

B-Dog had his own abilities. While chatting with the audience, he started to demonstrate how to skin the wolf. "I am going to strip the wolf. Look at me, I am fixing its rear legs and hanging them up. It works better if you have a stand. If you don’t have, then you could use the knife to fix it onto a tree. Then you slice the artery at the throat and let the blood flows. When there is no more blood, you can skin it from the claw to the abdomen. This wolf is pretty bad. I think I should take the internal organs out first before I skin it."

"Do it separately to the two sides of the front legs. Peel off the skin on the front legs. Finally, grab the skin of the neck and tear it down. The entire wolf skin will be peeled off."

He talked as if making a joke but he managed to clean up a wolf neatly and quickly. The audience was stunned.

"My mum asks me why am I kneeling to watch the video. I am already kneeling at the feet of you!"

"You are really stripping the wolf."

"Lord B-Dog, honestly speaking, are you a butcher?"

...

"Isn’t this amazing?"

B-Dog smiled and continued his work, "The meat of wolf is hard. Normally people do not know how to deal with it hence we feel that its taste is bad. You have to boil it with water. When you cut the rear leg, you have to dig the entire anal glands out. Do not cut it by knife. Otherwise, the stinky thing will leak and you will have a big problem."

He performed the Ox Butcher knife skill and there was no unnecessary step. He only put the knife into the meat and cut repeatedly before the fresh meat was taken out in warm slices. The bones were separated aside.

"Besides the meat and skin, I am going to take two bones. One of them is the wolf fangs and another is the clavide. Tibet has a culture that the males will carry the wolf fangs while the females will carry the wolf clavide. It is not only for fashion, it acts as a protection against evil spirits."

"Most of the people should know what the wolf fangs are. The fangs are pretty, sharp and hard, hence people love it. It is said that it could bring the good luck to prosperous, career, love, happiness, studies and anything else. Everyone around the world respects and adores the tooth. Not only the old folks, the young generation, and kids can wear it to ensure peace. It is loved by the young generation."

"Actually the wolf clavide is unique, just like the wolf fangs. The bone is totally different from the dogs. Physically, the clavide is dry, hard and strong. As the wolf travels a lot, the abrasion is quite serious and there are many uneven holes naturally. Besides, the smell of the raw clavide is extremely strong. The older the clavide is, the darker it is and the gore deposits on the bone are more obvious. The younger wolf will have a lighter color. Obviously, this is an old wolf."

He plucked out four sharp wolf teeth while talking.
