Ouyang Zizhen, who happened to be standing in front of Jin Ling, walked around behind Jin Ling and stood up, blocking Jin Ling behind him, and asked, "Senior, what do I have in common with these three people?" place?"

Lan Wangji glanced at Wei Wuxian, who was a little emotionally unstable, and replied calmly, "The mud on the boots."

Lan Sizhui looked down at Ouyang Zi's real boots, then at the three men in black, and understood, "So, you came to Qinghe from Baling, and it's been rainy between the two places recently. Mr. Jin came here with a sword, so there was no mud on his body, but Zizhen didn't use a sword, so no matter how careful he was, his boots would still be stained with mud, and the same was true for the three men in black... But, Lan Sizhui hesitated for a moment, "Is it too far-fetched to speculate that these three men in black came after Zizhen?"

Wei Wuxian, who had calmed down his emotions, nodded appreciatively, "Sizhui is right, it's really far-fetched to rely on this point alone, but you should observe and observe."

After Lan Jingyi jumped to the bush in three steps and two steps, Wei Wuxian had already ordered the three ghosts in the mountain to control the three men in black. Fortunately, the ghosts Wei Wuxian found were not tragic, so Lan Jingyi pulled out Xinglan and Suihua from the man in black neatly with her usual expression, and cast a cleansing spell to remove the blood on the two swords.

Lan Jingyi, who ran back with two spirit swords, threw Suihua to Jin Ling, walked up to Lan Sizhui and handed Xinglan to Lan Sizhui's hand, looked around Ouyang Zizhen a few times, clapped his hands, Laughing, "I know! It's the grass clippings on the corner of your clothes, Zizhen!"

Ouyang Zi really looked down, then looked at the grass clippings on the trouser legs of the three men in black, and suddenly realized, "These three people really came after me!"

Jin Ling raised his eyebrows, "This kind of grass is only found in Jeju, so you probably took a detour to Jeju?"

Ouyang Zizhen nodded, and put his spirit sword back into the scabbard, "I heard that there was an evil spirit on a mountain in Jeju the day before yesterday, so I went there. These grass clippings should have been stuck on that time, but," he paused. After a pause, I was puzzled, "But I didn't find any evil spirits, I just found traces of monks stationed there."

monk?

Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji looked at each other, Wei Wuxian waved his hand, the three ghosts exerted force, and the three men in black knelt on the ground, Wei Wuxian looked cold, "Say, who sent you to follow him?" of?"

The three of them remained silent, but glared at Wei Wuxian viciously.

The bamboo flute in Wei Wuxian's hand spun quickly, he pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly, and the three ghosts immediately blocked the mouths of the three of them to prevent them from biting their tongues and killing themselves.

Wei Wuxian turned to Ouyang Zizhen, "Zizhen, you found traces of monks stationed in Jeju, right?"

Ouyang Zi really nodded.

"Very good," Wei Wuxian continued to ask, "Then have you found out which monk is stationed?"

Lan Jingyi was puzzled, "How can you tell?"

Wei Wuxian laughed, raised his hand and rubbed Lan Jingyi's head, "Of course I can tell, if you don't believe me, just ask your family, Mr. Hanguang."

The four juniors immediately looked at Lan Wangji with hope in their eyes.

Lan Wangji, who was keeping an eye on the three men in black to prevent them from committing suicide or planning to die, gave the fourth junior a cold look, then nodded, "Yes."

Then there was silence.

Lan Sizhui: "..."

Lan Jingyi: "..."

Jin Ling: "..."

Ouyang Zizhen: "..."

No, then what?How to tell?

Wei Wuxian slapped his thigh straight: "Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha why did you only answer one word, hahahahahahaha!"

Jin Ling looked at Wei Wuxian's slap on his thigh and felt pain for him, "How can I tell?"

Wei Wuxian restrained his smile, and said with a smile: "Ru Lan, it's actually very simple. First, you can observe whether there is any formation left in that area, and then infer the family of the monks stationed there."

Lan Jingyi reacted quickly, "Is it because most of the monks will set up formations as the first line of defense when they are stationed?"

Jin Ling followed closely, "The defensive formations of each family are different. You can deduce the complete formation based on the remaining traces of the formation, so as to know which family's monk it is."

Lan Sizhui added: "The defensive formations of each family are drawn with the clan emblem of that family, even if the complete formation cannot be reversed, the identity of the monk can be known from the clan emblem.

Wei Wuxian was satisfied, and smiled brightly, "Not bad, what you said is right."

Ouyang Zi really recalled seriously, then shook his head, rather frustrated, "I didn't find any remaining formations."

Wei Wuxian patted Ouyang Zizhen on the shoulder, "That's the second method, look at what they ate and how they camped, but this is just a reference, and we can only guess where their family is located. Approximate range."

The four juniors were at a loss.

Wei WuXian was persuasive, "It's very simple, you change directions, for example, if you go to a restaurant for dinner, what kind of food would you order?"

Jin Ling frowned, "Of course I ordered what I like."

"Then Rulan, do you and Si Zhui have the same taste in the vegetables and rice they like?"

Jin Ling was slightly taken aback, "It should be different."

Ouyang Zizhen shook his head, "It's definitely different. Brother Jin is from the Lanling family. Lanling people like salty and spicy noodles, but Gusu Lan's food tastes fresh and peaceful. Baling and Yunmeng's tastes are both spicy. .However, when you are away from home, you must eat local food for convenience.”

"One more thing." Wei Wuxian stretched out his index finger and shook it, "Some people's tastes are different from the local habits. For example, Mr. Hanguang, he can eat spicy food."

Lan Jingyi was suspicious, and retorted, "When will Hanguang-jun eat spicy food..."

Lan Sizhui quickly covered Lan Jingyi's mouth, nodded, "That's right, I prefer sweets, so Jingyi often finds me all kinds of sweet foods." After speaking, he changed the topic, "As for the way of stationing, it will also be related to the customs and habits of the family area to which the monk belongs. That's why the senior said that he can only roughly guess the approximate area where the other family is located."

Lan Jingyi thought for a while, and pulled Lan Sizhui's sleeve. After Lan Sizhui let him go, he stepped forward and used his sword to cut open the skirts of the three men in black, and then opened the skirts, "Huh? Senior !” With the absurd point of the sword, he picked out a money bag from the arms of one of the men in black, “Here is a money bag! Can you see some clues from the embroidery on the money bag?”

Wei Wuxian nodded, "Jingyi reacted very quickly, that's right, in addition to seeing clues from monks' clothing, you can also find clues from their belongings, and the clan uniforms will be changed, so it's easy to frame others, but Personal belongings can easily go unnoticed, so that was one of our sources of clues instead."

Ouyang Zizhen took the purse for a closer look, and said pleasantly, "I know this kind of embroidery technique! This is Jinling embroidery! My mother once went to Jinling to buy brocade, and the embroidery on the brocade is similar to that on this purse. The embroidery method is the same!"

When the three men in black heard the analysis, they immediately struggled and were suppressed by the ghost again.

The four juniors who found some clues were a little happy, but Jin Ling had been taught by his uncle and his uncle since he was a child, and he thought more than Lan Jingyi and the others. He folded his arms, "But the family stationed at Jin Ling is not Few, there are no less than [-] families with a little bit of fame, and the range is a bit big."

Lan Jingyi wanted to refute, but she also knew that Jin Ling was right. After exchanging glances with Ouyang Zizhen, the two lowered their heads in frustration.Before Wei Wuxian could comfort him, Lan Sizhui had already begun to comfort Lan Jingyi and the three of them softly. The boys were still young, and the frustration quickly disappeared. Instead, there was a stubbornness in his heart. A group started to discuss the identities of the three men in black, and forgot to ask Wei Wuxian if there were other ways to find clues.

Wei Wuxian smiled slightly with gentle eyes, then raised his eyebrows proudly at Lan Wangji, "Lan Zhan, look, these kids are pretty good."

Lan Wangji raised his eyes, his eyes softened a bit, and nodded, "They're not bad."

"Lan Zhan," Wei Wuxian signaled to Li Gui to take the three of them to the woods to torture the four children on their backs, and then walked up to Lan Wangji with a smile on his face, "You still say There are so few, how can you teach the juniors like this? Why don’t you talk more.”

Lan Wangji raised his hand, gently took off the tiny petals that fell on Wei Wuxian's hair at some point, and said softly, "I have you."

Wei Wuxian patted his head, blinked, smiled, and asked, "With me? Why with me?"

Lan Wangji looked at Wei Wuxian helplessly, "I can rest assured that you will teach them."

"Ha!" Wei Wuxian frowned, "Lan Zhan, aren't you worried that I, a demon heretic, will spoil these children?"

"You're not," Lan Wangji said seriously, "You've never been a demon or heretic."

Wei Wuxian froze for a moment, obviously he didn't expect Lan Wangji to say these words. Under Lan Wangji's gaze, Wei Wuxian took a while to react, and turned his head rather embarrassingly, saying haha, " Lan Zhan, I haven't seen you for so many years, but you have changed a lot, I can't say enough about you, you are amazing."

Lan Wangji's eyes darkened slightly, "I..."

Suddenly there was a scream of a ghost in the woods, the voice was shrill and horrifying, and it hit the Tianling Cave. Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji frowned slightly. The four juniors had covered their ears and looked at the woods in amazement. The blood of the sky exploded in the woods.

The four juniors put down their hands, the screams had disappeared, and there was a dead silence in the woods.

Lan Sizhui and the others looked at the forest that had suddenly turned red, and belatedly realized that the three men in black seemed to have been led into the forest by a ghost... What happened?

The next moment, Wei Wuxian has already stepped forward quickly and grabbed Jin Ling, led him around and pressed him into his arms, at the same time he sternly shouted, "Close your eyes!"

Lan Jingyi was the first to come to his senses, turned around and covered Lan Sizhui's eyes, Ouyang Zizhen was also pulled by his sleeve by Lan Wangji and turned his back to the forest.

"Close your eyes."

Lan Wangji repeated, the four juniors finally closed their eyes in a daze, neither looking nor thinking about anything, obediently stood still in place, only heard the rustling of cloth brushing against the bushes in the woods The sound, and the sound of water rushing through the trees.

Two or three hours later, the woods returned to silence. Wei WuXian and Lan WangJi, who came out of the woods, exchanged a glance, and then led the four juniors towards Qinghe, with a relaxed tone, "Okay, now you guys You can open your eyes."

Jin Ling hesitated and opened his eyes, "They..." Did the three men in black blew themselves up?

"Their affairs have nothing to do with you," Wei Wuxian put his arms around Jin Ling, his tone serious, "So don't feel guilty, let alone blame yourself, this is the path they chose, if you want to blame it, blame the person behind them, you guys They are innocent victims, no one can blame you four children, you know?"

If it is said that the ability of the fourth generation of Lan Sizhui to eliminate evil spirits is unmatched among peers, but that is only against evil spirits, and now they are facing real people... And these three men in black actually chose to blew themselves up. Cun's method of suicide was beyond Wei Wuxian's expectations, and Wei Wuxian was really worried whether their mood would be affected.

Lan Sizhui looked back at the forest that had recovered to its original state, pursed his lips, and stopped in his tracks, "Hanguang-jun, senior, I, I want to play a song "Rest in Peace" for them." Not just the three black-clothed People, and those three ghosts.

Jin Ling frowned, muttered "bad kindness" and stopped in his tracks. Ouyang Zizhen nodded in agreement when he heard the words, "Death is like a lamp going out. Whether it is for the living or the dead, what happened before life I really should let it go, not to mention there are three ghost sisters... oh."

Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji looked at each other, Wei Wuxian nodded with a smile, and Lan Wangji nodded slightly, agreeing to Lan Sizhui's request.

Lan Sizhui sat cross-legged, took out the guqin Jiusi from his Qiankun bag, put it on his lap, tried two notes, looked sideways at Lan Jingyi who was sitting cross-legged with him and had already taken out a guqin, "Jingyi."

Lan Jingyi tried the timbre of her own guqin. Although she didn't play the guqin often, this guqin was found by Mr. Zewu for her. Even though she hadn't used it for a while, the timbre didn't change.

Lan Jingyi nodded in satisfaction, turned her head to Lan Sizhui and smiled nicely, "I'll help you, don't worry, Lixie and I will work hard!"

Lan Sizhui couldn't help but frowned, then straightened his sitting posture, his fingertips rested on the strings, and the elegant sound of the piano flowed out slowly.

May the dead rest in peace.
