Late at night.
Yibai stood on the damp earth, listening to the old man before him.
The old man sighed repeatedly and began to speak, "I was originally from beyond Taoshui County, the Mountain God of Jiguan Mountain, personally appointed by the Heavenly Emperor. This young man, several months ago, lamented his poverty and suffering within the mountain, claiming that his mother had fallen ill and he had no money to treat her. I took pity on him, revealed myself, and took him as a disciple. Seeing that he possessed a bit of fortune, I bestowed upon him Dharma, allowing him to use his own fortune to activate Taoist spells with which this fellow managed to earn some money and improve his family's circumstances. Yet, dissatisfied, he conspired with many others, intending to stage a rebellion."
