	Well into the evening did Li Bai party. Late at night while strolling down the empty streets alone, jug of wine in one hand, intoxicated as ever, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a silhouette gliding swiftly above him. Even with his senses dulled, he was able to identify the shadowy figure as none other than the stranger he had met that morning. The young man [[Freerunning\|darted]] across the rooftops with such uncanny speed and agility that he might as well have been soaring with the wind or as Li Bai called it, chasing the light of the moon. Awestruck and thrilled by this peculiar yet marvellous sight, the poet broke into a sprint on the ground chasing after Li E in turn. For the young man to fly like so, Li Bai could only assume, ''"Ha!
