After crossing over, he has no taboos among the zombies.

By the time Qin He finished his stroll and returned to the crematorium, it was almost noon.

Dharma Protector Yama had thick skin and flesh, but his body was also burned to ashes.

Through the shadow play, Qin He saw the life of Protector Yan.

The Dharma Protector Yan was named Yan Yan, and he was from Rizhao in Lu.

Rizhao is close to the sea, and agriculture is in decline. In addition, Dali has a sea ban policy, smuggling is rampant, and salt merchants are both businessmen and bandits. Each village has its own armed militia, and the people are fierce.

Yan Yan was born into an ordinary private salt merchant family.

The business of smuggling salt is fraught with dangers. One has to be wary of both the government and fellow traders.

If one only seeks safety and sells salt to big salt merchants, the profit will be meager and one will not be able to feed oneself.

If they want to have enough food and warm clothes, they have no choice but to take risks and be smuggled to the mainland.

Yan Yan was smart and clever since he was young. He traveled all over the country with his uncles and gained experience at a young age.

Along with his experience, his ambition also grew.

Yan Yan was unwilling to be a private salt dealer all his life, so he worked hard and studied diligently for several years in order to pass the imperial examinations.

However, it is not easy for children from poor families to pass the imperial examinations as they have no foundation.

Without a teacher to guide me, I can't afford to pay any money as a filial gift.

The road to fame and fortune ended before it even began.

Unable to master literature, Yan Yan turned to learning martial arts.

Learning a few tricks can help you deal with three or five ordinary people, but that's where it ends.

The next step is cultivation, but there is no one to guide you.

Having lofty ambitions but lacking the wings to fly, after many years, Yan Yan almost accepted his fate.

But fate always favors those who are prepared, or those who are ambitious.

When Yan Yan was 20 years old, the government surrounded the city and searched for a demon named "Ku Pu" from the Lotus Sect. Not only did they dispatch the Feiyu Guards, but also the city guards and constables. The government was very powerful and offered a reward of 3,000 taels of silver.

Ku Pu was surrounded and seriously injured, dying. With no way to go to heaven or to enter the earth, he fell to the ground unconscious.

Yan Yan, who was passing by, noticed him and recognized him.

What would an average person choose?

Nonsense, he must have handed it over to the government to collect the reward.

Three thousand taels of silver, for a person like Yan Yan, was a step to heaven.

Buying land, building a house and getting married are all no problem.

Even if you are rich and powerful, you still have to be enterprising, but if you are slightly wealthy, you will have more than enough.

As long as you don't squander, you will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life, and you can also leave a good fortune for your children and grandchildren.

But what did Yan Yan do?

He took great risks and not only saved Ku Pu, but also sent him out of the siege.

This may seem like nothing, but in fact it involves great risk and huge risks.

The first is harboring the evil people of the Lotus Sect.

This is a serious crime. In the mildest case, the main offender will be executed immediately and his family will be exiled. In the worst case, the offender will be executed by slow slicing and his entire family will be beheaded.

The intensity of Dali's suppression of the Lotus Sect was unprecedented in all dynasties.

When Dali started its rise, it had briefly cooperated with the Lotus Sect. Knowing well how powerful this group of people was, it immediately turned against them after the founding of the dynasty and began to hunt them down on a large scale.

They didn't know each other, but they not only gambled their own lives, but also the lives of their entire families.

This one point alone is enough to scare away 99.9 percent of people.

Then he escaped from the siege with the unconscious Ku Pu.

This is even more difficult.

The city is heavily surrounded and there are checkpoints everywhere. Let alone bringing an unconscious person, even a kitten or a puppy would be easily discovered.

Yan Yan used the method of smuggling salt, using carriages, coffins, and boats, and took great risks to bring Ku Pu out of the besieged city.

The last step is gambling.

Yan Yan saved Ku Pu in the hope that Ku Pu could be his guide. He desperately wanted to become stronger and become a superior person.

But the two did not know each other, and they did not know whether the unconscious Ku Pu could wake up, nor did they know whether he would be willing to be his guide after waking up.

Everything Yan Yan did was a gamble with his entire family's lives, a gamble on the possibility of climbing up.

There is no doubt that he is a gambler, a gambler who is crazy and reckless.

Gambling involves many risks, but once you win, the rewards will be proportional to the risks.

Yan Yan won the bet, and Ku Pu was taken back to the village by him to live in hiding and recuperate, and three years passed.

Ku Pu liked this young man who saved him very much and was brave and knowledgeable. He immediately accepted him as his disciple and taught him everything he knew, including skills, techniques, experience, and underworld rhetoric without reservation.

Yan Yan understood these things very quickly and had a very high level of comprehension.

Three years later, Ku Pu brought Yan Yan back to the martial arts world.

Yan Yan also officially joined the Wenxiang School of the Lotus Sect.

After that, with the care and support of Ku Pu, Yan Yan rose rapidly as if he had been given a cheat. In just five or six years, he became a famous young master of the Lotus Sect.

However, the tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. Some people were dissatisfied with Yan Yan's excessive popularity and reported Yan Yan's background to the government.

The Feiyu Guards were dispatched and captured more than 20 members of Yan Yan's three clans. After verification, they were all executed.

From then on, Yan Yan and Feiyu Wei became enemies.

He robbed the imperial court of offerings and various spiritual resources, committing no less than thirty crimes.

Moreover, Yan Yan changed his gambling nature and became very cautious. He never showed up easily, retreated after one attack, and moved to another place after each shot. There was no pattern in his actions.

The Flying Fish Guards once set various traps to lure them, but all ended in failure.

However, Yan Yan became stronger and stronger with each tribulation, surpassing his master even more. Twenty years after his debut, he became one of the three giants of the Wenxiang Sect, greatly boosting the status of the Wenxiang Sect in the Lotus Sect.

Later, the leader of the Lotus Sect emerged and planned to start an uprising in Lu.

Yan Yan immediately recruited soldiers and took the lead in responding, and soon expanded his forces to more than 10,000 people.

The leader of the Lotus Cult reciprocated the favor by appointing him as the left protector and accompanied him with more than 30 evil masters to assist him. His fame and power were unmatched at the time, and he overwhelmed the Holy Lord of the Lotus Cult in one fell swoop.

Until he came to the small city of Liu and was defeated.

The shadow lamp captivates the soul, the judgment is weighed, and the black-robed man speaks with golden words: "A wandering dragon is trapped on the beach, and a young man is bound; a great roc spreads its wings and becomes the leader; silt originates from chaos, and the white lotus candle illuminates the prosperous era. Banners flutter in all directions, and the black shovel is waved and turned into nothing."

Reward: A wisp of Chaos Energy.
