Liu Xiang of the Western Han Dynasty wrote in "New Preface, Miscellaneous Matter Five," "Young Master Ye loves dragons. He wrote dragons on hooks, chisels, and carvings in rooms. Therefore, the dragon came down, peeking at the door, and left its tail in the hall. When Lord Ye saw it, he abandoned it and left. Without its soul, the five colors had no owner. "
It was said that Lord Ye of the Chu Kingdom liked dragons very much. He carried dragons on his wall. When the dragons in the sky saw that there was someone who liked them so much, they came down to the mortal world to take a look. When Lord Ye saw that it was a real dragon, he was so scared that he ran away. Later on, this story was used to mock Lord Ye's empty talk and thoughtlessness.
But in reality, Lord Ye was not as bad as the rumors said. Back then, in order to control the flood, he personally observed the situation of the people and surveyed the terrain at the place where the flood was the greatest. Later on, he invented a plan to control the flood by building a deep ditch similar to a moat around the village to prevent flood and store water.
Later on, a guest saw Lord Ye's water conservancy map, which was like a group of dragons. He told Lord Ye, "Clouds give birth to dragons. The dragons in your drawing do not have clouds, so you don't like dragons."
Lord Ye replied, "I used dragons to guide water, not to ride the clouds. A dragon comes out of a canal, and a dragon comes out of the water. But I am afraid that this dragon will consume manpower and material resources, causing the people to suffer. " “
Later on, this matter spread to Shen Buhai's ears. In order to slander Lord Ye, he wrote the story of Lord Ye's love for dragons in his book, Shen Zi. Thus, Lord Ye suffered thousands of years of injustice.
The Ye family of Nanyang was also the descendant of Lord Ye of the Chu Kingdom. But no one knew that "Lord Ye's love for dragons" had become the name of a Qinggong movement technique in the Ye family!
Lord Ye's love for dragons, Cloud Dragon Comes Out of the Water!
This was a kind of movement technique that burned a large amount of True Qi in a very short period of time to increase one's speed to the extreme. It was not exquisite, but it was very useful when escaping for one's life!
At this time, Ye Fashan's True Qi had been completely exhausted. He came to an alley and was about to stop for a while when he heard footsteps behind him.
Ye Fashan's heart sank!
"Haha! Little Brother, you have guts to spy on the Provincial Governor's Mansion! "
A burst of hearty laughter came from behind him. Ye Fashan's heart skipped a beat, because this voice did not belong to Chi Li.
"Who are you ~?"
Ye Fashan straightened his body and turned around to look at the black-clothed man on the street.
"This is not the place to talk. Just now, I used lime and mustard powder to ambush the person who was chasing you. I can buy you some time, but I can't buy you the whole night! Little brother, if you trust me, then follow me. I'll bring you to a secret place to lie low for a while! "
The man in black said indifferently, then turned around and left!
Ye Fashan's mind raced. A moment later, he made a decision in his heart!
"Big brother, wait for me!"
Ye Fashan understood that with Chi Li's strength, even if his Lightness Skill was superb, he would only be able to take the lead for a while. It was certainly impossible for him to completely shake him off. Now that so much time had passed and Chi Li had not caught up, it proved that the black-robed man's words were not false!
What's more, I've already exhausted all my True Qi. It'll be a problem for me to avoid the patrolling soldiers. I might as well follow this man in black and see where he'll take me!
"Hey! Little brother, you have guts! You and I don't know each other. Aren't you afraid that I'll arrest you and send you to the officials? "
After Ye Fashan caught up with the black-robed man, the black-robed man chuckled as he walked forward.
"I have no Inner Force now. If you wanted to do something to me, you would have done it just now. Why wait until now?"
Ye Fashan lowered his head and said indifferently.
The black-robed man couldn't help but laugh. "Haha! Little brother, you're straightforward! If there's a chance in the future, I'll definitely find you for a few drinks! "
Ye Fashan shook his head and did not deny it.
The main thing was that he didn't know the true identity of this person. As the saying goes, the more one talks, the more mistakes one will make. If he said something that he shouldn't say, then it would be bad!
The two of them turned left and right. On the way, they encountered a few waves of patrolling soldiers. However, the black-robed man's keen senses allowed them to avoid them.
"Okay! We're here! "
At this time, the black-robed man suddenly stopped and said.
"Isn't this the City God Temple in the south of the city? Why did you bring me here? "
Ye Fashan looked at it and said with some dissatisfaction.
In this run-down temple, other than the stone statue, there was nothing else. How could anyone hide here?
(During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the people started to worship the City God. Naturally, there was also a City God Temple in the Tang Dynasty.)
The black-robed man acted as if he didn't hear Ye Fashan's question and said, "Hey! In the past, there were many beggars living in this City God Temple. I heard that at the beginning of this year, the District Magistrate sent people to chase all the beggars out of the city. Therefore, no one comes here on a normal day! "
Ye Fashan frowned and said, "But we can't hide here! What if the patrolling soldiers pass by here … "
"Hey! Who said we're hiding here? Little brother, come in with me! "
The black-robed man smiled and interrupted.
After saying that, he took the lead and walked in.
Ye Fashan could only follow.
In the City God Temple, the black-robed man took out a torch from his waist and blew it gently. The dim flame lit up this small area.
Ye Fashan wanted to stop him, but he saw the black-robed man lying under the incense table. He waved at Ye Fashan and said, "Little brother, come quickly. Follow this tunnel. I'll bring you to a place to hide! Hurry! Time is of the essence. Don't let the soldiers outside discover the fire here! "
As he spoke, the black-robed man used his strength to lift a stone slab under the incense table. He then jumped down first.
Ye Fashan was shocked. He didn't expect there to be a tunnel in the City God Temple. However, he didn't have time to think about it. He walked to the incense table and jumped down. He even covered the stone slab with his hands.
"Now that all the people's houses are closed and there are people guarding them, I can only bring you through the tunnel to find a place to hide!"
In the tunnel, the black-robed man held a torch and led the way in front as he spoke to Ye Fashan.
"Who are you? How do you know there's a tunnel under the City God Temple? "
At this moment, Ye Fashan couldn't help but be suspicious of the black-robed man's identity.
"Hehe! I'm not a bad person! "
The black-robed man chuckled and said, "Moreover, I didn't ask you about your identity, did I? Compared to you who had the courage to sneak into the Provincial Governor's Mansion at night, my little strength is only fit to be a nobody! "
"You went to the Provincial Governor's Mansion tonight too?"
Ye Fashan suddenly remembered the sound of the tiles falling to the ground that almost killed him. Hence, he quickly stopped and stared at the black-robed man's back. He asked in a deep voice.
