"What do you think?" Yi Ti asked with a faint smile, "I was tied up hand and foot and stuffed into a sack with stones, and then I was beaten over the head with an iron rod until I couldn't move anymore.

I sank into the Da Chi River, do you think I am dead or not?"

The county guard is not young anymore, and he is considered a senior figure in the officialdom of Dai Viet Kingdom.

In the past twenty years, the officialdom of Dai Viet Kingdom has gone through many ups and downs, but he has always occupied the position of the governor of Yanling County and remains standing. He can be said to be a tumbler.

But at this moment, this tumbler in Dai Viet's official circles was about to collapse - his face became paler and paler, and his body trembled more and more violently.

Especially when he noticed the faint black energy lingering around Yi Ti's body and noticed that there was no shadow under Yi Ti's feet, he trembled even more.

Obviously, this Yi Ti died twenty-five years ago.

At this moment, he is still haunted...or he has become a ghost, seeking his life!

"I really wasn't very clear about what happened back then!" He trembled for a long time and finally came up with some words to explain, "It was my butler's idea to teach you a lesson.

I just nodded and left the matter to him!"

In fact, Yi Ti had already used the Zhan Shang method to find out the general story of the incident, and he was just here to get some evidence.

After hearing what he said, he took out a piece of white paper.

This piece of paper was originally pure white, but as the Sheriff explained, writing began to appear on the paper - whatever the Sheriff said, words appeared on the paper, as if there was an invisible pen writing what he said.

Every sentence was recorded.

After the county guard, under his pressure, clearly explained a series of crimes such as corruption, bending the law, and murdering Yi Ti, Yi Ti nodded, flicked his fingers, and the white paper flew to the front of the county guard.

"Let's make a pledge."

The county guard looked at the white paper filled with his various crimes and thought about the consequences, and his fear of the evil ghost became a little weaker - if he was killed by the evil ghost one by one, he would die; but if all his crimes were exposed,

Isn't it just death? And even if I tell the truth honestly, will this evil ghost let me go?

Comparing his feelings with his own, he felt that he would definitely not let go of the enemy who killed him!

So he thought over and over again, and the thoughts in his mind gradually changed. Finally, he gritted his teeth, grabbed the white paper, and wanted to tear it into pieces.

But no matter how hard he tried, the thin piece of white paper remained motionless. It was simply stronger than the toughest cooked cowhide!

The county guard tried his best several times, but finally his whole body softened and he could no longer resist at all.

This time he honestly raised his hand, pressed his fingerprints on the white paper, then picked up the pen that appeared at some point and signed.

After doing this, he collapsed completely.

No matter whether the evil ghost will kill him or not, he is finished!

After a while, the summer sun gradually restored the heat inside the government office, and the county guard slowly came back to his senses.

He was surprised to find that he was not lying on the ground at all, but was sitting in the study room of the government office. On the table in front of him were gift lists given to him by several wealthy families in the county.

This is for this year's autumn tax. Yanling County is a large grain producer, and the annual autumn tax is a large amount.

And every year, he played a hand in the autumn tax collection. While helping the big households to evade taxes, he also used a lot of old rice to replace the new rice from the tax grain, and then sold it into money.

In just thirty years as a county guard, he has accumulated a huge amount of wealth that can make him the number one person in the entire Dai Viet Kingdom. Even if he resigns and returns home now, he can ensure that his descendants will have enough food and clothing for generations to come!

"Is that... just a dream?" The county guard stood up doubtfully, walked to the door and looked around.

He saw a policeman not far away leaning against the wall and taking a nap, so he called him over to ask what happened.

"There's no one there.

Aren't you the only one in this study?" The guard said doubtfully, "Don't you like being disturbed by others? That's why I'm always watching here so that no one can disturb you."

The county guard frowned and walked back slowly.

Could it be...is it really just a dream? But why do I dream about Yi Ti, who has been dead for twenty-five years? This dream is really weird!

He secretly made up his mind to go out to the temple in the county government and ask a knowledgeable monk for a fortune to find out what was going on!

As for Yi Ti, at this time he had already arrived at the cemetery outside the county government, and stood silently in front of a relatively neat and wealthy tomb.

Wu Jie walked over and saw an unknown name on the tombstone.

"Who is this?"

"That's the person who sent thugs to chase me." Yi Ti smiled and said, "He was the steward of the county guard at the beginning. When he learned that I was injured and went to Beijing to file a lawsuit, he sent his brother-in-law to take care of me.

A group of thugs caught up with me in the Dachi River.

They beat me until I fainted, and then threw me into the Dachi River to destroy my body."

"As a result, I was saved by Uncle Zhou who was passing by. Not only did I not die, but I became a member of the Immortal Sect.

But he died... Look at the record on his tombstone, he died of fever in the second year after I joined the Immortal Sect, and he was not even forty years old when he died."

Wu Jie was startled, his eyes widened, and looking at Yi Ti's calm look, he was speechless for a moment.

What surprised him was not that Yi Ti didn't die at first, but the calm expression on Yi Ti's face when he said this.

There was no trace of resentment in this expression, only indifference.

It seems that Yi Ti really doesn’t care anymore?!

This is murderous revenge! How could he not care?

After a while, he couldn't help but ask his own question.

"I have been waiting for twenty-five years." Yi Ti said calmly, "Twenty-five years are enough to gradually wash away the resentment in my heart... Senior brother, do you know why I have to wait so long?"

Wu Jie naturally shook his head. He really didn't understand Yi Ti's thoughts.

If it were him, with such deep hatred, he wouldn't be able to wait that long.

As long as you are sure that you have enough power to take revenge, you will immediately set out to take revenge - if you don't kill such an enemy, how can you get through your thoughts!

"At the beginning, I also wanted to achieve success in cultivating immortals and take revenge. I even thought about destroying the whole family of related people! But before I became a disciple, Uncle Zhou arranged many things to temper my temper.

The resentment is much less..."

"Huh? All the things you experienced back then were actually specially arranged by Uncle Zhou to test you?"

“I can’t say it’s a test, it’s just a training.

Chopping firewood for a living is a way for me to exercise, get used to a poor life, and get rid of the aura of luxury. The Fu soldiers and warriors come to beat me from time to time. In fact, it is to clear my blood and polish my arrogant aura... Uncle Zhou said

Yes, my qualifications are very high, but if a person wants to succeed in cultivating immortality, the most important thing is his character rather than his qualifications.

During that time, I was improving my character."

"...I thought those who beat you were people sent by your family to protect you..."

"The people of the Yi family thought I was dead a long time ago, so why would they send someone to protect me? You are overthinking." Yi Ti smiled bitterly, "I wanted to report corrupt officials, but the family did not approve of it.

Because of this, I fell out with my family... Later, when the news of my death spread, they must have been relieved..."

Wu Jie suddenly felt a little embarrassed and hurriedly changed the subject: "Because you lost your temper at the beginning, so you changed your mind?"

"After I became successful in cultivation, I gradually changed my mind..." Yi Ti said calmly, "If I had gone back to take revenge, I would have had no problem taking revenge, but I'm afraid that if I accumulated resentment in my heart, I would kill many, many, many people.

people."

"There is revenge and there is hatred and there is resentment. No matter how many enemies there are or how few enemies there are, we must kill those who deserve to be killed!"

"Elder brother, you are a decisive person, but I am not.

When I think about killing many, many people, my heart softens - and I feel that this is not good for my cultivation." Yi Ti sighed, "So I thought about it and decided to wait until I succeed in practicing Gang.

I’ll take revenge later.”

"It's too late!"

"Yes, I originally estimated that it would take thirty or forty years before I could achieve success in refining the Gang.

By that time, all my enemies will probably be dead, and this grudge will be over.

Time has eliminated them for me, so there is no need to dirty my own hands."

"But I didn't expect that in just over twenty years, I would be successful in practicing Gang." Yi Ti couldn't help but sigh, "As a result, I was hesitant and considered whether I should wait any longer until I could condense the essence."

Let’s talk about the realm.”

"It would take several decades from refining Gang to condensing Yuan.

Unless your enemy lives to be a hundred years old is not enough, and may have to live to be one hundred, thirty or forty years old - otherwise they will never have the chance to see you again." Wu Jie shook his head, "This means not taking revenge, which is boring.

!”

"Yes, I thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to take revenge!" Yi Ti's expression was still very calm, without any hint of ferocious hatred, "Since I succeeded in refining Gang much earlier than I expected,

That's probably God's will.

God must let me take revenge..."

"But you haven't killed anyone along the way."

"Killing is just the lowest form of revenge. Since I want to take revenge, I have to do it cleanly and beautifully. What I couldn't forget at that time was the matter of rectifying the government, and I regarded it as more important than my life.

Now that I have enough skills and a good reason, I simply do the two things together."

"Whether it's revenge or getting rid of harm, just do it together."
