Chapter 340 Wu Jie
Under everyone's gaze, Wu Jie slowly told the story of what happened next.

Wu Jie used to be a disciple of Xuanmiao Temple. Although he had profound Taoist skills, he often clashed with his fellow disciples and elders in the temple because of his stubborn, rigid and almost inhumane code of conduct. Later, he left the temple on his own.

By chance, he was invited to this primary school by a powerful leader with a large sum of money.

The daily job is to protect the teachers and powerful leaders from being harmed by ghosts. The work is easy and simple, and the pay is good.

He carefully made amulets for them, so those little ghosts could not get close to them at all. As long as those little ghosts did not evolve into evil ghosts and harm people, he would choose to turn a blind eye and let them follow him.

He rigidly believed that the living would be punished by human laws. Even if those people committed many evil deeds, they would be punished by the laws of the world of the living, and they would also receive corresponding punishment in the underworld after death.

But if evil ghosts harm people, they should be dealt with. This is the meaning of their existence as cultivators, to maintain peace between the two worlds.

He was responsible for helping those people get rid of the ghosts that were haunting them, but if someone discovered the bad things they had done and wanted to send them to jail, it was none of his business.

He adhered to the rules of the Yin and Yang worlds almost rigidly. He did not use his abilities to harm people, but only to catch ghosts and eliminate monsters. He always believed that his way was correct.

So he had already seen that Zhu Yaqi and An Yuan were investigating those people, but he chose to turn a blind eye and did not inform those people or stop their actions.

But he never expected that his turning a blind eye would lead to such serious consequences. Zhu Yaqi and An Yuan were killed by those people. The ghosts followed those people and wanted to take revenge, but they were carrying amulets and could not take revenge, causing their resentment to grow day by day.

Wu Jie sometimes wondered if he was wrong.

He is a security guard. Teacher An Yuan is not like other arrogant and condescending teachers. He always greets him politely before and after class.

One rainy day, seeing that he was stuck in school and couldn't go home because he didn't bring an umbrella, An Yuan gave him his umbrella and went back in the rain himself, which resulted in him catching a cold and falling ill.

Seeing that he was alone, Zhu Yaqi would sometimes send him delicious food and some daily necessities.

Is it really nothing wrong for such a kind person to end up like this? But everyone's fate is determined by heaven, and both of them are destined to die early. Even if he has the ability, he cannot change people's life and death at will.

Although those bad guys are bad, they are destined to be rich and live long, so he is not wrong.

During that time, seeing their two souls following those bad guys, and seeing Zhu Yaqi wanting to hug her sad child but being unable to do so, Wu Jie struggled with whether he was right or wrong.

Until he saw with his own eyes those beasts hurting an innocent child, and saw that child had a bright future and a long life.

But after this incident her fate will change drastically and her bright future will become bleak.

Only then did he truly realize that he was really wrong, very wrong.

He was self-righteous in maintaining peace between the two worlds and not changing the fate of others, but in fact he was aiding and abetting the evil and helping those beasts to harm people.

Although fate is determined by heaven, it is in the hands of man. It is too easy for the strong to change the fate of the weak.

Those people are more terrifying than evil spirits and demons. They have turned this world into a living hell.

So when he realized his mistake, Wu Jie replaced all their amulets with useless ones under the pretext that the amulets had expired.

He had been working with them for so long that they had never doubted the truth, so they replaced all the amulets.

Starting from the night when the amulet disappeared, those beasts died one after another in the school.

But at this time Wu Jie discovered that something was wrong. On the night when the amulet was missing, Zhu Yaqi, An Yuan and others turned into irrational ghosts for unknown reasons. They not only killed those bad guys but also killed two other innocent teachers.

Zhu Yaqi even couldn't recognize her own daughter and assaulted her own child.

Fortunately, Wu Jie appeared in time and rescued the child, otherwise Wen Xiu would have died earlier.

When Wu Jie said this, Wen Xiuyue looked confused. She didn't remember encountering a ghost when she was a child. "Why don't I remember it?"

Wu Jie: "You were so shocked at the time that you forgot about it."

Others looked at him with complicated expressions. Was there something seriously wrong with this old man's head?

To say he is good is because he is an accomplice of those evil people.

Even though he was evil, he didn't kill Zhu Yaqi and the others, and he even helped them. This kind of person who is capable but can't distinguish between good and evil is really scary.

An Yuan stared at him intently, wishing he could rush up and bite him to death.

Wu Jie lowered his head guiltily, and his skinny body looked even thinner.

"These ghosts are trapped inside by you," Yan Qing said.

Others: Trapped in there by him?
Wu Jie nodded, it was he who was trapped inside.

Zhu Yaqi and the others' cultivation levels increased at an alarming rate, and those who were killed by them became vengeful ghosts.

They killed each other without distinguishing between friend and foe.

There are so many resentful ghosts that Wu Jie cannot eliminate them all by himself. He can only temporarily trap them in the school at the cost of twenty years of his life and his lifelong cultivation.

He then asked for help from his fellow disciples at Xuanmiao Temple, but no one was willing to help him.

He had offended people from other Taoist temples before, and no one came to help him.

There was no other way, Wu Jie could only pin his hopes on Yinchai, hoping that Yinchai would discover the abnormality here as soon as possible.

While waiting for the ghost, the heavy resentment here attracted many evil ghosts from the surrounding area. All the evil ghosts who entered this school turned into resentful ghosts without exception.

Wu Jie waited alone around the school for almost a month before the evil spirit came.

The few ghost messengers who came were also quite reasonable. After learning about the tragedy here, they did not kill all the resentful ghosts directly. Instead, they cleared away the resentment in them and brought them back to the underworld one by one for trial.

But when the process was halfway through, a vengeful ghost of the most powerful level suddenly appeared from nowhere, filled with resentment. It not only turned the ghosts that had cleared the resentment into vengeful ghosts again.

Even the ghost messengers were not spared. At the last moment when they were eroded by resentment, those ghost messengers tried their best to strengthen the seal of the school and pushed Zhu Yaqi, An Yuan and him who had not yet been assimilated out of the school.

From then on, they were all corroded by resentment and turned into resentful ghosts, and were trapped here.

Thinking back on it all now, Wu Jie feels even more guilty.

If he had figured it out earlier and taken away the amulets from those beasts earlier, An Yuan and the others would not have been left with nowhere to go and been infected by resentment, nor would they have turned into irrational resentful ghosts, and the things that happened later would not have happened. All of this was caused by him.

Later, Zhu Yaqi disappeared, and An Yuan trapped himself in Zhu Yaqi's home. Wu Jie stayed in a nearby Taoist temple and came to the school every day to wait, waiting for other ghosts or fellow Taoists to come and deal with the vengeful ghosts in the school.

At the same time, prevent other uninformed people from entering the school.

But he had been waiting for more than twenty years. During these twenty years, no evil spirits had appeared here. Apart from the ghosts that kept being attracted in, no one else came.

Wu Jie looked at Yang Fan, his eyes red and his lips trembling, "...Fortunately, fortunately you came."

If they don't come soon, he won't be able to hold on any longer.

The scene was deathly silent. Fu Cancan and Xiao Lin kept wiping their tears. Zhang Xingchang, Feng Lan, Wen Xiuyue and Wang Lin were crying. Han Musen clenched his fists with bloodshot eyes.

The truth is more cruel than they imagined.

If Zhu Yaqi hadn't insisted on sending cakes to the children, how long would they have to wait before they knew what happened here?

Yan Qing, Tang Yuanyuan, Qiao Ci'an and the others lowered their heads, so their expressions could not be seen clearly.

Xiao Xiao pulled Tang Yuanyuan's clothes, bit her lower lip tightly, tears rolled down her cheeks, and she felt extremely sad. The wind was howling in the school behind her, and she seemed to hear the helpless cries of those children.

An Yuan looked confused as he turned to look at Zhu Yaqi's home. Did he trap himself there and couldn't get out? Was he waiting for something? Was he waiting for the truth to come out? Or was he waiting for someone to find Sister Yaqi's body one day?
The little white tiger lay in Yang Fan's arms, burrowing into his arms in a depressed mood.

The human world is more brutal and terrifying than the animal world.

Yang Fan casually touched its back with his hands, with no expression on his face.
