After many years of absence, the unknown place in the deep clouds is still as quiet as mountains and forests, surrounded by streams.When the gate of the Lan's Immortal Mansion came into view again, Jiang Cheng stopped and stared, feeling a lot of emotions.

"this way please."

He withdrew his gaze, said "Thank you", and went up the stairs under the guidance of the fairy attendant. Outside the main hall, there were already two disciples of the Lan family waiting for him.

"I don't know that Sect Master Jiang is coming, so I'm far away to welcome you." The older one bowed and said, "The Patriarch is discussing matters, and someone has already sent a report. Please wait for a moment, Sect Master Jiang."

"Then there's no need, let him take care of his work, I'll go see... Lan Er first."

The two teenagers hesitated and exchanged glances.The younger one was the first to speak: "Sect Master Jiang doesn't know something, Mr. Hanguang——ah."

"What?" Jiang Cheng raised an eyebrow.

"—is retreating." Lan Jingyi finished speaking tearfully, he had just been stepped on by SiZhui.

"Retreat?" Jiang Cheng sneered.Others don't understand Wei Wuxian's virtues, but he knows them very well. He calls it "retreat", and it is very likely that he has made some kind of basket to teach people to lock him up. "It's okay, just lead the way. If he can't come out, I'll go see him."

----------

It has been six full days since the last time I went out, Wei Wuxian thought boredly.It's not complaining, he drank the wine himself, even if it was because Lan Zhan was too poor to drink and taught him to go crazy, he could only blame himself for being careless, and Wei Wuxian admitted it.

In the early morning six days ago, he woke up with dry mouth and tongue, and when he opened his eyes, he saw "Wei Wuxian" sitting on the edge of the bed, holding a cup of tea to his lips.At that time, he was still in the stage of dizziness. Seeing this situation, he spit out all the tea he drank and stammered "you you you" a dozen times without uttering a whole sentence.

Lan Zhan calmly handed him a handkerchief, and then explained the whole process.Only then did the fragments of memory slowly come back to his mind.

Wei Wuxian's heart skipped a beat when he heard that.He had never been really drunk, and naturally he didn't know what state he was in when he was drunk.But such a shocking feat of climbing a tree to play tricks on Lan Qiren... Wei Wuxian thought to himself that he had no guts to do it when he was sober.Therefore, apart from being shocked, he also felt that he was a bit powerful.While thinking wildly, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and it sounded that there were quite a few people.Wei Wuxian hurriedly sat upright, facing the wall, and put on a posture of "quietly thinking about his own past".

"Please." The door opened, and someone walked in, but there was no sound.Wei Wuxian didn't know who was behind it, so he didn't dare to turn around easily.

"Who are you pretending to show?" After a moment of silence, a familiar tone rang out.

This, this, this is? !Wei Wuxian jumped three feet high, turned around, and sure enough——

"Jiang Cheng?! Why are you here?!"

"I made a special trip to see your jokes." Jiang Cheng said leisurely, and sat down on the chair opposite him.

Wei Wuxian: "...you are really free."

"I'm thinking too much, I'm very busy. Passing by Gusu, I heard that you occupy Lan Er's house and are doing well, so I came here specially to have a look."

"He's a good guy." He rolled his eyes and lay down on his back, swinging his legs up, "I can't run or jump, and I can't even drink alcohol. Only the Lan family can survive this hard life..." Speaking of the broken rules of the Lan family, he started chattering on and on, and Jiang Cheng didn't say a word after he talked for a while. "What's the matter, are you dumb?" He sat up again.

"It's nothing..." Jiang Cheng had a strange expression on his face, as if trying to hold back a smile, "It's just...the first time I've seen Lan Er like this."

Wei Wuxian: "..."

"Go away," he jumped up and chased people away, "Lianhuawu didn't deal with a lot of business, but came here to make sarcastic remarks, how did you become the suzerain?"

"This is you chasing me," Jiang Cheng got up and pretended to leave, "You two can't get back without me, so don't regret it when the time comes."

"Wait a minute—" Wei Wuxian jumped out and grabbed his sleeve, "Brother, if you have something to say, talk it out! What can you do?"

Jiang Cheng lowered his head, looking at "Hanguang-Jun"'s earnest expression, another sense of absurdity struck him.He straightened his face and said: "Purple Electric Soul Retrieval, let me whip you all alone, and try the effect first, how about it?"

"You better go away."

"Then I'm really leaving."

"Don't—" Wei Wuxian immediately changed his words, dragging Jiang Cheng stubbornly, no matter how disgusted he was, he was still very grateful for someone who was willing to come all the way to meet him and talk to him for a while.Lan Zhan was away during the day, and he couldn't go out. He sat alone for a whole day, and he was really suffocated.

"Lotus Pier still has a lot of business to do—"

"——No hurry at this hour and a half!" Wei Wuxian didn't feel ashamed at all when he changed course so quickly. "Even if you want to go, do me a favor before you go."

"What's the matter?" Jiang Cheng was a little alert. What Wei Wuxian wanted to do made people instinctively feel that it was not a good thing.

He leaned forward and whispered for a moment.

"No!" Jiang Cheng refused without thinking.

"Saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda! There are so many lives here!"

"Or not!"

"Otherwise you go for me?" Wei Wuxian spread his hands.

Jiang Cheng: "..."

……

In the end, Sect Master Jiang found an excuse to send away all the disciples of the Lan family who were guarding the door of the quiet room, and sneaked into the woods with "Hanguang-jun".

"Jiang Cheng, watch for me." "Hanguang-Jun" said, taking out the eggs one by one from Qiankun's sleeve, and carefully placed them on the ground.

"reject."

"Then you climbed the tree?"

Sect Master Jiang's expression was a bit ghostly.He is the head of the family, how could he do such a shameful thing as climbing a tree again, how can he meet people when it gets out?So, Jiang Cheng reluctantly moved two steps away, as if to set a whistle for Wei WuXian. "It's been taken out for a few days, it must have froze to death." He said angrily.

"No." "Hanguang-Jun" said disapprovingly, "I'm still warm, and I'm afraid I'll hatch in two days."

"Haven't you done enough sneaky things? Why do you even have to put a bird's egg back now, let go of the confession, and become a Buddha immediately?" Jiang Cheng folded his arms and squeezed him, showing no intention of helping him.

"I was ignorant before... Besides, Yun Shen doesn't know where killing is not allowed, there are quite a few in this litter." "Hanguang-jun" sighed, put the front hem into the belt, fastened the sleeves with the wrist strap, and stretched his muscles and bones. "It's better to use Lianhuawu. You don't need to wear these long-winded things, and you don't have to break the rules."

"Then come back with me." The words blurted out without going through the brain.By the time Jiang Cheng realized what he had said, it was already too late.

"Hanguang-jun" looked at him with disbelief.

"It's nothing." He prevaricated bluntly, looked away, and inexplicably felt an urge to slap himself.

As if he had never heard that sentence before, Wei Wuxian lowered his head and continued to toss his robes, and fell into an abnormal silence.Jiang Cheng always thought Wei Ying was too noisy, but when he finally got his ears clean, he secretly hoped that Wei Wuxian could say something, no matter what.It's a pity that no one brought up the topic again.

"It's done." After a while, "Hanguang-jun" finally succeeded in changing the Lan family's school uniform into a strong one, picked up the bird's egg, and geared up. "Jiang Cheng, take care of me, your senior brother, I'm still young."

Seeing that man skillfully climbed up the treetops, Jiang Cheng raised his head and suddenly felt a little melancholy.

----------

After the discussion was over, as soon as Lan Xichen left the house, he heard someone report: Yunmeng's Jiang Wanyin had arrived.

"Why didn't you say it earlier?" Lan Xichen frowned.

"Sect Master Jiang said... that he doesn't need to disturb you, he's going to see Lord Hanguang first."

Subtle emotions flowed across Lan Xichen's face, he paused, and said, "That's fine."

----------

Lan Jingyi has been guarding outside the quiet room, seeing Jun Zewu and "Senior Wei" approaching from a distance, and hastened to meet them.

"Jun Zewu, Senior Wei." He bowed and saluted.

"Jingyi, why are you so anxious?"

What else could it be? "Hanguang-jun" disappeared again.He hurriedly told the whole story.Xu Shi remembered the mess that happened when "Hanguang-jun" disappeared last time, and "Senior Wei" also frowned when he heard it.

"Jiang Wanyin came to see 'Lan Zhan'?"

"Exactly." Jing Yi nodded, and after answering, he realized something strange - if he remembered correctly, Sect Master Jiang and Mr. Han Guang almost got into a fight when they met last time, when did these two have such a close personal relationship?Before he could figure it out, "Senior Wei" had already entered the quiet room to investigate on his own. After a while, he exited the door and exchanged glances with Lan Xichen.The latter's face is clear.

"Let's find it in the woods." Lan Xichen sighed, amused and helpless.

The group of three went to the woods, and after a while, a familiar scene appeared before their eyes again: "Hanguang Jun" went up the tree again, but this time, instead of being drunk, there was Jiang Wanyin standing under the tree to replace him. keep watch.

"Oh, I wanted to put it away, so I hurried back and thought about it. I didn't expect you to come so soon." After being caught sneaking in confinement, "Hanguang-jun" laughed awkwardly, loosened his hands, and jumped from the tree. Sliding down, "Jiang... suzerain was dragged here by me, don't take offense." He patted the dust on his hands, and loosened his narrowed sleeves.

Jiang Cheng's face darkened. Was Wei Ying afraid that Lan Da and Lan Er wouldn't see him as a living person?

"Wei Wuxian" didn't say anything.Lan Xichen didn't say anything.The four of them know everything and have expectations of each other, which is not too surprising.It's just that poor Lan Jingyi was the only one who didn't know, and the worldview he had finally rebuilt was shattered to pieces again.

"Jingyi, you should go back first." Mr. Zewu reminded thoughtfully.

Lan Jingyi replied in a daze, and staggered away.

----------

In fact, Lan Xichen didn't need to explain, Wei Wuxian could have guessed it at random.Jiang's ancestors traveled among the people in the early years, and they did a lot of research on intractable diseases such as haunted by ghosts and ghosts. One magic weapon was specially made for summoning souls and leaving souls.Jiang Cheng came here to deliver something.It's just that this kid, even if he offered to help, he still had to put on an air of indifference and annoyance, taught the usage hastily, and went down the mountain before staying overnight, as if what he left behind was not some ancestral fairy artifact, but Like a mason jar picked up by the side of the road.

Wei Wuxian lay on his side on the couch in the quiet room, while studying this magic weapon, he talked about his restless junior brother: "...In terms of appearance, Jiang Cheng's appearance and cultivation are not bad, but if this bad temper doesn't change , it would be strange for any fairy to take a fancy to him, don't you think so, Lan Zhan?"

Lan Wangji sat a little far away from him, looked down at the volume, and replied in a neutral tone: "Then you go back to Yunmeng first, and solve his lifelong affairs for him?"

What does it mean to go back to Yunmeng first?Wei Wuxian was beating his heart, why does this sound like an order to chase away guests?This is no good, he won't go anywhere if he doesn't give up in exchange. "No, no, with his posture, who dares to help him matchmaker? I can't stand stabbing me again when I'm unhappy someday. It's good to be alive, I'd better stay in Gusu."

Lan Wangji said calmly, "Stay in Gusu to save your life?"

"Not necessarily..." These days, Wei WuXian always felt that there was an idea lingering in his subconscious, but once he thought about it carefully, it disappeared without a trace.He thought about it for a long time but didn't come up with a reason, so he threw the matter away again.He sat up and poured himself a cup of tea, he caught a glimpse of what Lan Wangji was holding, and suddenly became interested, "What are you looking at?" The book looked very large, not like an ordinary classic, but rather——

"Account books."

really.

Wei Wuxian felt strange.When did Lan Zhan start watching this kind of stuff?As if hearing his inner voice, Lan Wangji finally raised his head.When the four eyes met, Wei Wuxian actually saw the shadow of those light-colored glazed pupils from his own face.

Lan Zhan said lightly: "The losses in Yunshen's unknown location have been counted, and the tiles that need to be replaced total 740 pieces."

The tea that Wei Wuxian had just drank spurted out again.It's not good, Lan Zhan started to hold grudges.Back then, the [-] Immortal Binding Nets were destroyed as soon as they were destroyed, but now even a few tiles are starting to argue with him.

"Lan Zhan, you are getting more and more stingy.

"...You can't blame me entirely, it's because you drink too little!

"Lan Zhan... I don't have any money, so I can't afford it."

"It's okay," Lan Wangji quietly flipped through a page of the account book, and still replied in that neutral tone, "There will be a bright future."
