During the Taiping and Xingguo years of the Northern Song Dynasty, the west wall of Taiyuan City was built and collapsed many times. Yang Ye dreamed of Guan Gong appearing as a saint at night, stepping on the horse's hoof marks and giving guidance. After the city was completed, the three heroes gathered at night in Guandi's temple. Zhang Fei came down to earth to experience due to the order of heaven. Guan Gong smiled and pointed at Yang's house - "I am going to be reincarnated, and I will live up to your experience of going down to earth."
Yang Qilang came into the world with the fierceness of Yi De and the bravery of Marquis Huan. The young man fought hard and killed Pan Bao, forming a bloody feud; Youzhou rescued him and killed all four gates alone, shocking the Liao Dynasty; at the head of Jinshatan Beach, seven men and eight tigers fought in a bloody battle; at the foot of Two Wolf Mountain, he broke through alone and asked for help. Unexpectedly, outside Yanmen Pass, a treacherous official devised a poisonous plan. He tied the tiger with a hundred-foot-high pole and pierced his chest with one hundred and three arrows - seventy-two of which passed through the heart. The spirit of a generation of generals died.
The river flowed against the river for three days and nights and drifted to the ancestral graves of the Yang family. The people felt his loyalty and built a temple to offer sacrifices. The spirit of the hero is immortal, still guarding the border. Eternal tragedy, heaven and earth weep together.

It combines myths, legends and historical romances to interpret Yang Qilang's tragic song of loyalty in his past and present lives.
