It wasn't until the sun set, and the layers of clouds stained the sky red, and the leaves of the black cloak were put on again, that he left the old man's residence.

After the old man's long narration, Ye Zhen almost figured out Nie Li's life deeds before he was forty years old.

When he descended the mountain, although he was not more than twenty years old, his heart surname and realm far surpassed his peers, laying an excellent foundation for his future take-off on the path of assassins.

It wasn't until he broke into the outside world in the true sense of the word alone that Nie Li discovered how sinister the outside world was compared to the simple folk customs of Qishan Town.

It was an era of the jungle, the war on the border was endless, the situation in the country was also extremely grim, the murderous bandits and bandits rose together, the people were not fed and hungry, and hundreds of civilians died of hunger and cold every day, and their bones were all over the field.

Fortunately, Nie Li at that time, although he was not a master, he also had some strength that could protect himself, coupled with his extraordinary wisdom and courage, he could escape without danger every time, baptize and hone in adversity, and improve his strength.

After a lot of hardships and hardships and some sinister adventures, he finally realized his own path from the experience of assassinating the Black Panther with lightning speed.

It was also from that time that defeating the strong with the weak had almost become synonymous with Nie Li, with a ghost-like posture, like a phoenix dancing for nine days, all of which witnessed his transformation from a resolute boy to a peerless assassin.

Since his parents died when he was a child, his family was destitute, and Nie Li, who had a poor background, will inevitably have some cynical bad mentality in his heart.

However, the pure heart in his heart has always been the same, otherwise, he would not have stepped forward and risked his life to assassinate the bandit leader Black Panther, who was an impassable mountain to him at that time, without the slightest loss of his own interests.

Whether it is in Qishan Town or the outside world, Nie Li has never done anything that hurts the heavens and reason, even if he is hungry and cold, and even when he is about to starve to death on the streets, he can still restrain his evil thoughts, and never rely on superior force to rob the food and money of ordinary people.

He has tasted the ups and downs since he was a child, and he has seen through all the states of the world, and he can understand the hardships and bitterness of the lower class civilians better than anyone else.

On the contrary, for those who rely on force and power to do evil, Nie Li will never be the slightest bit merciful, and once he sees it, he will definitely be severely punished.

The initial concept of worshipping heaven and earth, promoting good and punishing evil, was formed at about that time.

Three years later, Nie Li, who had turned into a dragon, returned to Qishan Town as promised, and then he single-handedly defeated Shang Kewei who came to greet him and his hundreds of military masters.

Immediately afterwards, Nie Li and Fu Qiuhong, witnessed by their father-in-law and the townspeople, got married in Qishan Town, and finally achieved a happy fairy couple.

However, after experiencing the hardships of the world, he no longer wanted to hide in the paradise of Qishan Town to enjoy it alone, and three months after marriage, Nie Li, who had already seen the way of the lord at that time, led his wife Fu Hongxue and settled in Ling Tianhuang City.

The so-called small hidden in the wild, big hidden in the city.

With Nie Li's surname, no matter how deliberately he disguised and kept a low profile, it was difficult to hide the light brought by his envy and hatred over the years.

It was also during that period that he adopted more than a dozen orphans who lived on the streets, and taught them the principles and skills of life as a teacher.

In the turbulent years of war, Nie Li was like a beacon in the turbulent times, and won the recognition and support of the majority of civilians with his unique personal charm and superb strength.

Even Ling Tian's Emperor Ling Biao had personally visited his residence, wanting to invite him to serve as the commander of the Imperial Palace Guard, specifically to protect the safety of Ling Tian's imperial family and the palace.

However, how could Nie Li, who has always acted with his surname and acting with his surname, enter the court as an official and be embarrassed by a group of [***] incompetent people?

He categorically rejected the emperor's invitation and devoted himself to cultivation in his residence, which was a full twenty years.

It wasn't until Luo Bu led the army to break through Huyang Pass, marched all the way, captured countless towns, and finally left only one lonely city in the Ling Tian Empire, that Nie Li, who had reached the peak of the lord level at that time, took the initiative to meet Ling Biao and discuss with this emperor, who had already been scared, how to save the people from fire and water.

The final result of the discussion was very simple, the ambitious An would not die, and Ling Tian would not be at peace.

In order to quell the war as quickly as possible, and before the fall of Ling Tiancheng, he even came up with a bitter plan to sacrifice an arm to paralyze the vigilance of Luo Bu and Loulan outside the city.

You must know that Nie Li was already famous all over the world at that time, and if he didn't pay some heavy price, no one would believe that he would take the lead in rebellion. If he hadn't rebelled out with his weak wife and daughter, and staked all the most important things in his life, An Gui, who lived in the Loulan Palace, would not have given him a chance to get close.

As for the follow-up matter, Ye Zhen had already heard about it in Yun Punishment Evil, a man who regarded his wife and daughter as a treasure, and finally poisoned them, and then went to the banquet with a mortal heart, but unexpectedly broke through the shackles that had been stagnant for a long time, broke through the spirit level pass in one fell swoop, and then wiped out all the princes and nobles, including the king Angui, with the momentum of the wind and clouds, and disappeared from everyone's field of vision afterwards.

"--The legendary spirit level, I don't know if this guy is still alive, even if he is still alive, he should be as old as that uncle." Looking at the remaining red clouds in the sky, Ye Zhen frowned slightly, with his current situation of various legendary-level equipment and prop skills, lord-level monsters were all existences that he could only look up to, as for the spirit level, he could hardly imagine how terrifying it was.

Moreover, since the game has been open for more than half a year, I have never heard of a spirit-level monster in any country, and usually a lord-level monster can change the color of the vast majority of players.

After looking at the time, there were still about two hours before the game was about to close, and Ye Zhen was walking on the street to the west of the town, feeling the customs of the town from time to time.

Because it is located on the top of the mountain, the scale of Qishan Town is extremely small, and there are only three or four hundred buildings on the top of the mountain, which is more like a village than the towns of Mingsha Town.

However, in terms of the appearance of the buildings and the beauty of the town planning, not to mention Mingsha Town, even the two main cities that Ye Zhen has visited, Lancheng and Green City, are definitely not comparable to this projectile-like hilltop town.

I saw a number of green tiles and red wall buildings arranged in a straight line, whether it is longitudinal or horizontal, at a glance it is as if it has been measured with a precise tape measure, straight and neat, just like a modern high-end community.

Moreover, the distance between the houses is exactly the same, if you stand in the distance and look at it, you can only see the outermost house, which looks like a town in the game, and it is a modern 'Huaxi Village'.

Walking on the open street where players are scarce, the sound of a clear spring flowing in his ears can be heard from time to time, and seeing that the sky is about to darken, Ye Ji can't help but speed up, like a gust of wind, rushing to the westernmost part of Qishan Town.

When he was talking to the old man, Ye Zhen inquired from him about the location of Nie Li's hometown and the old mayor's mansion, and now the place he was going to was the house where Nie Li had lived alone for more than ten years.

At the westernmost point of the flat hilltop, near the edge of the cliff, there is a cold, dilapidated tiled house.

To Ye Zhen's surprise, even in front of this dilapidated house, there was a ditch that flowed horizontally, straight into the house.

"It seems that these ditches are very old." Squinting his eyes and checking it, Ye Zhen no longer had a mother-in-law and walked towards the dilapidated house.

Coming to the dilapidated tiled house, without hesitation, Ye Scar poured his strength into his legs, jumped out of the fence, and stood in the garden overgrown with weeds.

"This is Nie Li's house-" After looking around for a while, Ye Zhen knew that the house was no longer inhabited, so he swaggered open the door and walked into the hall where the ground was full of gray layers.

Entering the hall, there are large and small cobwebs everywhere you go, the mahogany beams that run across the roof have already shown signs of decay, and the roof tiles have long been displaced by the wind and rain.

With the palm of his hand fanning the pungent musty smell of rotting in front of his nose, Ye Scar began to carefully search the left and right rooms, but even if he didn't even let go of any dead spots, he didn't find any valuable clues.

Ten minutes later, Ye Zhen returned to the empty hall, and unfortunately, Nie Li didn't even leave a blank sheet of paper when he moved, which made Ye Zhen, who was full of hope, pounce on him.

His brows furrowed, Ye Zhen was very unwilling to give up like this, he looked around at the empty hall, his expression was full of determination.

Suddenly, Ye Zhen's eyes lit up, and his eyes were fixed on the two planks that were spread on the ground.

Like the old man's house, Nie Li's house also had two canals, one vertical and one horizontal, that ran through the entire house, intersecting in the very center of the empty hall.

Impatiently, Ye Zhen uncovered the mahogany planks covering the intersection of the vertical and horizontal canals, and suddenly, the sound of the water flowed like a summer cry, and it resounded continuously in the empty hall......
