Ye Ying was frightened by this sudden appearance of a figure. He was a dignified third-grade first-level warrior. Due to his practice of martial arts, his perception was very sharp, but this mysterious man actually appeared without anyone noticing. Behind him, he actually didn't feel anything at all.
The man in front of him had long hair, a frighteningly thin figure, and his black clothes were in tatters. His hair was also very messy, almost completely covering his face. After looking at it for a long time, Ye Ying didn't even know whether the other person was a boy or a girl.
"Who are you?" Ye Ying asked softly. This person did not choose to attack him immediately. It seemed that he had no ill intentions.
But the strange man opposite didn't say a word. He just stared at Ye Ying intently, which made Ye Ying's heart feel numb.
"Your Excellency won't speak again, but don't blame me for being rude." Ye Ying stared at this mysterious man seriously and said slowly.
But the other party still acted as if he hadn't heard Ye Ying's words. He didn't make any move and continued to look at him as if he were looking at a strange thing.
Not wanting to spend any more time like this, Ye Ying finally made up his mind. He moved quickly with his feet and pounced on the man in black like lightning. He made a fist with his right hand and quickly hit the opponent's temple.
Knowing that the opponent's behavior must be extraordinary, Ye Ying used a very powerful move in the Ye family boxing method as soon as he came up, hoping to repel this mysterious man with this move and then leave quickly.
Seeing that his fist was about to hit the opponent, the mysterious man didn't seem to see it. This made Ye Ying regretful. If he hurt this stranger, he would be extremely guilty.
But the next moment, Ye Ying's fist did not hit the opponent. The mysterious man stretched out his skinny left hand and actually pinched Ye Ying's fist. Ye Ying's punch used 80% of his internal strength, but he didn't expect that the opponent would catch him so lightly.
Next, the mysterious man's hands tapped Ye Ying's body a few times as fast as lightning. Ye Ying felt that all the strength in his body was suddenly drained, and he no longer had the strength to move.
This frightened Ye Ying quite a bit. He was now certain that this mysterious man's kung fu was even higher than that of his second master. He had no ability to resist at all in front of this man.
Fortunately, this mysterious man didn't seem to have any intention of harming Ye Ying. He suddenly pulled open the clothes on the back of Ye Ying's neck, and his fingers like dry branches scratched Ye Ying's skin, which made him feel a little creepy, but There is no ability to fight back.
This mysterious man seemed a little excited. He used his fingers to pull at a birthmark on the lower part of Ye Ying's neck. His dry hands were actually trembling a little.
"Haha, it's you, it's you...I hugged you back then..." The mysterious man said in a voice that seemed sharp and unclear, making Ye Ying a little confused about who he was.
But at this time, Ye Ying could already see the appearance of this person clearly. From his high Adam's apple, he could tell that he was a man, but the strange thing was that his chin was bare and there was no sign of a beard.
"Do you know me?" Ye Ying suddenly had a suspicion in his heart, and he couldn't help but make a sound. Only then did he realize that his body had regained strength.
"More than just acquaintance, without my help twenty years ago, how could Ye Fei have taken you away?" The mysterious man still said in his unclear voice.
"Since you are here, I will help you!" From the mysterious man's words, Ye Ying quickly guessed that this man must be someone who was close to his grandfather and father. He immediately became excited and wanted to ask Some things happened back then, but suddenly I found that I had lost the ability to move and speak again.
Ye Ying could only feel the mysterious man placing his palm on his back. Immediately afterwards, a warm current poured in from Ye Ying's back and quickly spread through the meridians in his body.
Ye Ying, who has been practicing martial arts for many years, can certainly tell that this power is the internal force of the mysterious man. This internal force is moving around in Ye Ying's body, causing several of Ye Ying's meridians to almost break, and it hurts so much that he can't help but... He screamed, but because he was restrained by the mysterious black man, he couldn't even make a sound.
But then, Ye Ying began to be pleasantly surprised. Several veins in his body that had been unable to be opened were quickly opened with the entry of the mysterious man's internal power. This time, it actually helped Ye Ying break through the realm, allowing him to reach the realm of martial arts. Directly break through to the middle level of the third level.
Is this still possible? Ye Ying never thought that the realm of martial arts could be broken through like this. This sudden change surprised Ye Ying. He suddenly found that the power he had lost had returned.
"I am the secret guard beside your father." Before Ye Ying could ask, the mysterious man took the initiative to reveal his identity.
"Then can you...can you tell me something about that year?" After hearing what the mysterious man said, Ye Ying couldn't help but say excitedly.
"Let the past be bygones, why are you talking about that? I'm old, and I can't remember what happened back then." The mysterious man said slowly, obviously he didn't want to mention the past things again.
"Please leave with me." Seeing that the mysterious man didn't want to talk about what happened back then, Ye Ying made another request. He knew that with the mysterious man's skills, the people here would not be able to keep him.
"Let's go. I won't leave. My mission is to stay here. Someone is coming. Go quickly. Don't tell anyone that you have seen me here." The mysterious man suddenly exerted force in his hand, and Ye Ying's body It has drifted far away and arrived at a relatively hidden corner.
It was only then that Ye Ying discovered that there was a sound of footsteps in the distance. It turned out to be the patrolling Baiman soldiers coming over. When he looked in the direction of the mysterious man, he found that the man had disappeared.
Ye Ying returned to his room. Not long after he lay down, it was dawn. What happened last night seemed to be a dream, which made him a little bit unconvinced whether it was true or not, but the third-level middle-level martial arts realm told Ye Ying that this incident really happened.
Early in the morning, Ye Ying went to see his patient, a child named Liu Liang. After some insinuations, Ye Ying quickly figured out the child's identity. This Liu Liang is Ye Ying's cousin in terms of seniority, because he is the child of the former Emperor Liu Huan's biological brother Rui Wang Liu Guang after he came to the Northern Barbarians.
Because he knew Liu Liang's "condition" well, Ye Ying just pretended to understand some of the situation, and then prescribed some medicine for him to take and then observe.
Thanks to Ye Ying's hard "treatment", Liu Liang had improved in the afternoon, but it was obvious that there was still a long way to go before he recovered, so Ye Ying had to continue to stay in this Tuwa Fort.
During this day, Ye Ying gained a better understanding of the situation in Tuwa Fort. In addition to the twenty or thirty direct relatives of the royal family, the people living here were also the children of some important ministers in the former Daning Dynasty. , as well as eunuchs and maids, etc. Ye Ying met many people this day, but he did not see the mysterious person last night.
Night came again. After finally waiting until 3:00, Ye Ying slipped out of the room again and once again came to the Tushan area he had visited last night. This time, his main purpose was not to pay homage, but to find the person he had visited last night. Mystery man.
The area of Tushan is not large, but Ye Ying searched the place all over, but found no trace of the mysterious man. After waiting for more than an hour, the mysterious man still did not appear. Ye Ying knew that he would not come.
After searching quietly in several hidden places in the fort, he still found no clues. It seemed that this mysterious man would never see him again. Ye Ying had no choice but to return to his room disappointed.
Seeing Liu Liang again, under Ye Ying's deliberate control, the little cousin's "illness" had improved a lot. Ye Ying also learned about some of the conditions in the fort from Liu Liang on the grounds of understanding the cause of the disease.
While chatting, a tall, stooped man with long hair walked past the house and immediately caught Ye Ying's attention.
"That's a mute. He used to be a eunuch in Daning Palace. Now he is responsible for pouring night fragrance in the castle." Liu Liang noticed Ye Ying's gaze and said to Ye Ying.
After listening to Liu Liang's words, Ye Ying didn't say anything more. He just had a brief conversation with Liu Liang and then quickly left his room.
Ye Ying walked out of the room and quickly spotted the thin figure. He was slowly going in and out of rooms, pouring the contents of the chamber pot into a large covered bucket.
Ye Ying walked forward, and finally walked in front of the figure, and then "encountered" him. When he saw the person's face, Ye Ying couldn't help but feel excited, because this frail man who poured Ye Xiang was the same person he met the night before. The mysterious person arrived.
It's just that the temperament of this mysterious man has changed dramatically. His eyes are dull, and he looks like he hasn't woken up when he walks. He is like a robot, doing what he should do step by step.
When he saw Ye Ying, he didn't even look at him. If he didn't look exactly the same, Ye Ying would really suspect that he had recognized the wrong person.
"Let's go, this is not the place for you to stay." The moment the two of them passed each other, Ye Ying heard this sentence. Before he could react, he was already pushing the cart containing midnight snacks forward.
After hearing this sentence, Ye Ying was completely sure that this listless-looking man who smelled night fragrance was the mysterious person he was looking for. But who would have thought that such a thin man who could be knocked down by the wind would actually be an expert.
It seemed that this mysterious man also knew that he was looking for him. In order to avoid revealing his purpose by walking around in the castle, he deliberately appeared in front of Ye Ying, completely cutting off his thoughts.
In the afternoon, all the patients in Tuwapu miraculously recovered. Many doctors themselves didn't understand how their patients were cured.
However, all the doctors breathed a sigh of relief, because they could finally leave, but what they didn't know was that they and others had already circled around the entrance of the Palace of Hell.
All the patients were able to recover, which was of course due to Ye Ying. He knew that there was no point in staying in this Tuwa Fort, so he sprinkled the antidote in the hospital.
Sure enough, in the evening, the doctors were notified, asking them to pack their things and leave before dark.
Qi Jiao and Shan Fu were extremely happy when they saw Ye Ying appearing at the door of the inn. In the past two days, they had looked at the door of the inn dozens of times. Others didn't know where Ye Ying went, but they both knew that the boss had arrived in a very dangerous place.
"Tell the brothers to rest early today and leave this place early tomorrow morning." Seeing the two brothers, Ye Ying did not explain to them what he had experienced in the past two days, but just said this to them.
Although he successfully left Tuwa Fort, Ye Ying felt uneasy at all. He always felt that a danger was approaching him, so he decided to leave quickly. Anyway, what he had to do here had been completed.
