Chapter 305: Zhuge Wolong, Knowing the Autumn Leaf
Soon, under the leadership of the constable, the two came to the cell, "This is the cell, the young master, and this master, please take your own care. If you find the friend you mentioned, just give me a small command."
As he said that, he looked at the shaky silver in Ye Fan's hand reluctantly, and then turned around and left.
Ye Fan laughed secretly, having money can make the devil push the mill, and this really works anywhere.
These constables were originally afraid of themselves and others, but when they saw the money, they immediately changed their appearance. It seemed that it was not difficult for them to bring Ning Caichen out of prison.
But it is no wonder. After all, it is now in a chaotic era, Chaogang has been ruined by the centipede spirit, and the capital is in chaos, let alone small places like Jinhua County.
Therefore, these constables have long forgotten their original duties. For the sake of a little reward, they can randomly arrest people on the street and impersonate them, let alone Ye Fan just took away an irrelevant person in prison.
In prison, Ning Caichen, who had been imprisoned for a year, had already been covered in beard, which was completely different from the original appearance of the handsome young man.
Moreover, because he had not been washed for a long time, his body was already dirty and messy, which was almost the same as those beggars on the street!
After more than a year of prison, Ning Caichen had already accepted this fact. Every day, except for looking up and thinking boredly about the days when he was with Yan Chixia, Ye Fan and others in Lanruo Temple.
It is also because of this that when he saw Ye Fan standing in front of him with a smile, Ning Caichen almost thought he was in a dream and couldn't help but murmur, "Brother Ye... why are you here... Haha, I must be dreaming."
Seeing Ning Caichen's embarrassing look, Ye Fan couldn't help but shake his head and said laughing and crying: "Brother Ning, I haven't seen you for more than a year. Why have you put yourself in jail?"
"I... I was caught in randomly by them. They insisted that I was a wanted criminal Zhou Yabing, but in the end... I got it in."
When Ning Caichen heard this, he spread his hands and said with a grievance: "Brother Ye, are you able to take me out of here?"
"Of course there is a solution. Brother Ning, please be calm first," Ye Fan nodded, but looked at the old man beside Ning Caichen curiously and said, "Brother Ning, who is this?"
From the time the two talked to the present, the old man said nothing, holding a stone on his own, writing and painting on the wall, looking quite contented, and was not affected by the messy environment inside the prison.
Seeing this, Ning Caichen quickly explained: "Oh, this old man is a friend I met in prison, called... called..."
It was not until this time that Ning Caichen remembered that he had been with the old man in prison for more than a year, but he had no idea of the other party's name or where the other party came from.
Thinking of this, Ning Caichen couldn't help but smile bitterly and signaled to the old man: "Old sir, my friend is here to pick me up. If you don't dislike me, you might as well leave with us."
“No need,”
The old man then raised his head, showed an old face full of vicissitudes, looked at Ning Caichen and said, "Young man, you are lucky. Since you have a friend to take you out, then you can leave quickly. As for me, huh, I voluntarily stay here. If I want to leave, I would have left long ago."
"Old sir..."
Ning Caichen also wanted to continue to persuade the old man.
Suddenly, Ye Fan spoke, and as soon as he made a sound, he attracted everyone's attention here.
"Brother Ning, Mr. Zhuge Wolong stays here, so he is of course his intention. Don't persuade him anymore. This mere prison cannot trap him."
"Um?"
Not to mention how Ning Caichen reacted when he heard this, the old man who had ignored everyone came over with a quick glance, looked at Ye Fan in disbelief and said in a trembling voice: "Little brother, you... you actually know my name. It's impossible... how old are you."
"No, Brother Ye's fairy-like figure wouldn't even guess such a small thing," Ning Caichen couldn't help but argue.
As early as after Lanruo Temple and his party, Ning Caichen admired Ye Fan so much that he was overwhelmed with all his heart. He had already regarded him as his most respected person, so how could he allow others to question it?
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Ning Caichen frowned as if he had remembered something, "Old sir, do you say your name is Zhuge Wolong? The legendary Mr. Zhuge, a scholar in Tongtian?"
"Yes, it's me," Zhuge Wolong nodded complacently, then waved his hand and said, "Okay, you guys want to leave quickly, don't get in the way here, I have something to do."
"Mr. Zhuge, but... why do you have to stay here?"
"Or where else can I go?"
Zhuge Wolong laughed at himself, his words full of loneliness: "I think Zhuge Wolong is destined to be in prison for the rest of my life. Even if I want to write two books quietly, it will be a huge amount of hardship."
"Writing travel notes, they said that I leaked the secrets of the court and wrote history, and they were said to use the past to mock the present and annotate military tactics. They even said that I instigated rebellion and wrote stories of gods and monsters, and they also said that I was a superstitious person! In the end, I simply rewrite the biography of this celebrity, but who would have thought that this celebrity lost power and was designated as a rioter, and I was also said to be a member of the party and sentenced to life imprisonment, alas."
Speaking of this, let alone Ning Caichen, even Fahai couldn't help but look at Zhuge Wolong in surprise, full of sympathy.
"Okay, you'd better leave quickly."
After pouring out the resentment in his heart, Zhuge Wolong waved his hand in a daze and said, "Now I am in this prison, I am living a leisurely and comfortable life. The prison guards are all counting on listening to my story. I plan to finish writing it here and go out to print it out. Now they can't catch me, right?"
“…”
Well, after hearing Zhuge Wolong's strong answer, Ye Fan didn't know what to say. Since he was unwilling to leave, why should he be villains in vain?
Seeing this, Ye Fan quickly called the previous constable and told him to release Ning Caichen for him.
"Young Master, it turns out that this person is your friend. Please wait a moment, I will let him go."
The constable heard this and said nothing.
Originally, he arrested people just for money, but Ye Fan actually gave them money, and it would be no big deal if he let Ning Caichen go.
The three of them were out of prison.
Afterwards, Ning Caichen went to the nearby inn, washed up happily, and returned to his gentle and kind-hearted scholar.
"Brother Ye, I don't thank you for your kindness. I don't know who this master is?"
When Fahai learned that Ning Caichen was the key figure in finding the centipede spirit, he was not too reserved. Hearing this, he bowed slightly, "Amitabha Buddha, my monk Fahai."
Ye Fan also added at the right time: "Master Fahai was invited by me to deal with an extremely difficult monster."
"So that's it," Ning Caichen nodded in a vague way, and then asked hurriedly: "By the way, Brother Ye, have you seen a big beard?"
"Brother Yan? To be honest, I haven't contacted Brother Yan for more than a year," Ye Fan said.
While the few people were talking, they had already left Jinhua County and walked towards Zhengqi Villa.
Yes, this is Ye Fan’s plan.
Since he and Fahai were waiting around and could not find the trace of the centipede demon Cihang Pudu, it would be better to try their luck.
You should know that in the original work, Ning Caichen was out of prison and had some contact with Yiye Zhiqiu and others at Zhengqi Villa, and then he met Cihang Pudu.
If nothing unexpected happens, Ye Fan just needs to follow Ning Caichen quietly, and he is afraid that it will not take long before Cihang Pudu will appear.
“Haha.”
Just as the three of them were rushing to find the traces of Zhengqi Villa, a rapid sound of horse hooves came from behind, and at the same time, a scream sounded,
"Does go!"
I saw a fierce horse rushing towards everyone.
A young Taoist sat on the back of the horse. Seeing his panic-looking face, he knew that the horse must have lost control, which would cause this scene.
Seeing this, Ye Fan couldn't help but frown, paused, blocking the road the horse was about to pass.
"bump--!"
There was only a loud bang. Before the horse touched Ye Fan's body, it was blocked by a golden light. The Taoist priest on the horse's back also flew out of the horse's back and hit a big tree not far away under the influence of this force.
"Hey, you guys!"
Perhaps the Taoist priest had a good cultivation level, but he was hit like this, but he was not injured. Instead, he came to Ye Fan angrily and scolded: "You are told to dodge and dodge, why do you keep rushing to my right away!"
"Ha," Ye Fan couldn't help laughing when he saw this, "You little Taoist priest, you are not good at riding a horse. You almost hurt someone. Are you still making such a rude statement?"
"That's right," Ning Caichen also echoed: "Fortunately, Brother Ye can do magic, otherwise, if you pretend to be a little bit like this, wouldn't you be seriously injured?"
"this……"
When the young Taoist priest heard this, his face turned red. He was thrown into a tree by a horse and was angry inside. He ran over and scolded Ye Fan without thinking about anything.
Now that he was scolded like this, the Taoist priest remembered that it was because his horse was out of control.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
"It's okay, no one is injured anyway, so let's give up this matter." Ye Fan waved his hand and said.
Hearing this, the Taoist priest nodded quickly, "This brother is right, but this matter is caused by me. I'm really sorry, by the way, here are the Taoist priests in Kunlun School, Zhiqiu Yiye, are you?"
"Little student Ning Caichen," Ning Caichen hurriedly said, "These two are my friends, Brother Ye, and Master Fahai."
"Master Fahai?"
The Taoist priest who claimed to be Zhiqiu Yiye was stunned and asked tentatively: "But that Master Fahai from Jinshan Temple?"
