Zhengzhou, Guancheng County.

It was getting dark, and the people on the streets hurried back to their homes, because they were going back late, but they were going to be arrested and put in prison!

In the early Tang Dynasty, there was not only a curfew system in Chang'an City, but also more than 300 prefectures and counties in the entire Tang Dynasty! After all, if the first decision is made today, the ruler needs a stable social order! The night is often a time of high incidence of criminal activity, and it is also the period when the ruler is most worried.

Throughout ancient Chinese history, there were many coups and uprisings launched at night, so night became a time period for rulers to be on guard. And the best way is to let the people honestly go back to their homes to eat and sleep as soon as it gets dark.

After another quarter of an hour, it was completely dark, the doors of the various houses were closed, and groups of soldiers began to patrol the streets.

Tonight, there is no moon, a breeze, and the sky is as dark as ink!

No one noticed that in a mansion in the west of Guancheng County, a black shadow came out, the black shadow was quite good, all the way from the roofs of the houses on the side of the road, no sound was made at all, under the protection of the night, not a single soldier patrolling the street was aware of his existence!

After a while, the black shadow came to a homestead in the middle of Guancheng County, reflecting the light of the lantern in front of the gate of Nafu, and the three big characters of "Thorn Shifu" were faintly visible in the center of the gate of Nafu!

"Go to the Assassin's Mansion first, see if Wei Zuocheng is imprisoned in the mansion by Pan Zhenyue, and then go to the state capital prison!"

That black shadow was none other than Ye Fashan.

In the evening, he told Ye Minglei that he was going to come to the Assassin Mansion at night, Ye Minglei naturally disagreed at that time, after all, Ye Fashan was the eldest grandson of the Ye family in Nanyang, if something happened to him, Ye Guozhong and Ye Huiming would not let him go!

But Ye Fashan said: "If you can't find Wei Zuocheng, the person who broke the game, everyone will die", Ye Minglei couldn't stop it anymore!

Nowadays, this kind of crisis of "only by fighting hard can there be a glimmer of life", what family, dignity and inferiority, it doesn't matter at all, only by living, can we be qualified to talk about these!

At this time, Ye Fashan took a serious look at the layout of the Assassin's Mansion on the roof of the house opposite the Thorn Mansion, and then took two deep breaths, and then luckily on the soles of his feet, and the whole person went in the direction of the side courtyard of the Thorn Mansion.

Because there are many guards in the main courtyard, it is easy to spot.

"Whew~! I didn't expect that there were so many guards in this Assassin's Mansion, Pan Zhenyue This is a typical bad thing, and he has done too much! ”

Dodging all the way, bypassing more than a dozen patrolling soldiers, Ye Fashan hid in the corner of the eaves of an attic, taking the opportunity to take a breath, while thinking angrily in the bottom of his heart.

"Smack~!"

At this moment, about five zhang away from Ye Fashan, suddenly a tile fell to the ground, making a crisp sound!

"Who~?"

It just so happened that a small group of soldiers passed by, and one of the sergeants at the head immediately stopped and walked this way!

Ye Fashan's heart is in his throat at this moment!

If it is about martial arts, he is completely sure that he can outperform this group of soldiers, but he is not sure that he will subdue this group of soldiers without making a little noise~!

The Thorn Mansion is heavily guarded, as long as the sound of fighting on his side spreads, then he will soon fall into siege, and at that time, the gods will not be able to save him!

Ye Fashan couldn't help but clench the hilt of the sword at his waist, even if he might fall into the encirclement, then he would not sit still! Although he is a Taoist priest, he is not one of those stubborn Taoist priests, he told Li Yu that killing to stop killing is also immeasurable!

"Meow~~!"

Just when the group of soldiers was only three feet away from this row of houses, a cat cry suddenly came from the position opposite Ye Fashan where the sound was made before, and then a small black shadow jumped off the eaves and rushed into the distance!

"It turned out to be a wild cat~!"

Seeing this, the soldier at the head stopped and said with a sigh of relief.

The Tang Dynasty also had cats.

The world's earliest records and documents of cats are the Book of Songs, Daya, Han Yi in the Western Zhou Dynasty of China, which reads: "There are bears and wolves, cats and tigers. But the juxtaposition of cats with bears, tigers, etc., in the verses, does not seem to refer to domestic cats. It was not until the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty that it was really clearly pointed out in the "Book of Rites: Suburban Special Sacrifice": "The ancient gentleman must repay him, welcome the cat, and eat voles for it." "Cats have been affirmed as domestic animals and domesticated.

"Let's go! Keep patrolling! Tonight, Lord Thorn Shi is entertaining distinguished guests, if there is a slight mistake, we all have to lose our heads, and give Lao Tzu some spirit, do you know~! ”

The sergeant at the head looked cautiously around again, then turned to the soldiers behind him and commanded.

"Oh~!"

The soldiers agreed, and after a while, they continued to patrol elsewhere~!

"Whew~!"

almost died tragically at the "feet" of a wild cat, Ye Fashan's mood at the moment is not to mention how depressed he is, but he is not without anything.

"Entertaining distinguished guests? Could it be..."

Ye Fashan muttered in his heart, and then looked at the main hall of the Thorn History Mansion that was still brightly lit in the distance, and his mind couldn't help but come alive.

"Check it out! Maybe there will be clues about Wei Zuocheng~! ”

After a while, Ye Fashan made up his mind, and the whole person cheered up with twelve points, and then cautiously leaned over there!

There is no greed for merit, and there is no daring artist, Ye Fashan is like a patient hunter at the moment, quietly waiting for the best "kick" opportunity, every time he takes a step forward, he has to look at the six roads, listen to the eight directions, he would rather be slower, than reluctant to venture into being discovered, a distance less than a hundred zhang away, he was stunned for nearly two quarters of an hour!

However, he finally came to the main hall of the Thorn Mansion, and it was the roof of the main hall!

Ye Fashan calmed his heartbeat, then held his breath, carefully leaned down, and put his ear on the tile, wanting to hear the sound of the conversation in the room.

Unlike those masters in some costume TV series, Ye Fashan didn't dare to open the tiles directly, peeking and eavesdropping at the same time, after all, he had just evolved the Qi Realm, and his martial arts cultivation was not profound, who could guarantee that there would not be one or two masters stronger than him in this great Thorn Mansion~?

First, there was a sound of silk and bamboo, presumably there was a dancing girl playing music and dancing in the hall, and then, Ye Fashan vaguely heard an old voice, and said: "Zhenyue, can Wei Xuancheng find it~?" ”

A neutral voice said: "Back to the old lady, the student has sent people to search the whole city in the past few days, but he still doesn't know Wei Zheng's whereabouts, this person seems to have evaporated from the world, and he disappeared out of thin air!" ”
