When Wei Wuxian traveled back in time

Wei WuXian leaned closer again: “Why aren’t you talking?”

Jiang Cheng said calmly, "I don't know. I haven't asked about Lan Wangji."

"..."

Wei Wuxian looked around the yard and thought this should still be the clan leader’s residence.

Wei WuXian retracted his gaze and said, “Jiang Cheng, you are such a fool. You don’t care about anything after you wake up. You won’t tell me when I ask you. I’ll have to ask you myself.”

After saying that, Wei WuXian hurriedly ran out of the yard and went to the backyard.

Jiang Cheng was staring at Wei Wuxian's back in the yard in a daze.

However, just as Wei Wuxian left, the three children who had gone to the village to prepare meals came back.

The food boxes were placed on the stone table in the yard.

Lan Jingyi carried another food box and walked towards the room where Wei Wuxian was sleeping. Regardless of whether the person inside was awake or not, he put the food there first so that he could eat it directly when he woke up.

But as soon as he walked in, he immediately shouted: "Senior Wei is missing!"

The other two people also hurried over to check.

The bed was empty. Jin Ling ran over there and then ran back, standing in front of Jiang Cheng and asked, "Uncle, where is the person?"

Jiang Cheng answered without thinking: "I don't know."

Jin Ling said, "How could you not know? Didn't you say that you would watch over them and make sure nothing went wrong these few days? You even refused to change shifts. How could you not know?"

Jiang Cheng's gaze was like a sharp sword as he looked at Jin Ling. His voice was a little stern: "Is this the way you talk to your uncle?"

For some reason, being looked at and scolded by Jiang Cheng, Jin Ling subconsciously shrank his neck. He always had a sense that his uncle Jiang Cheng might slap him in the face in the next second.

He suddenly closed his mouth.

At the same time, Wen Yuan and Lan Jingyi also walked out of the room.

Wen Yuan bowed and said, "Senior, Master should be awake now."

Jiang Cheng responded.

Lan Jingyi asked: "Where did Senior Wei go?"

Jiang Cheng said: "Wei Wuxian ran away after he woke up. I don't know where he went."

Jiang Cheng was telling the truth. When Wei Wuxian ran away, he indeed did not tell him where he was going.

……

Wei Wuxian ran out and went straight to the palace gate in the backyard.

It would be more practical to ask the young man about Lan Wangji’s situation.

The doors and windows here were closed. Wei Wuxian stepped forward and was about to knock on the door when it opened by itself.

Wei WuXian walked in.

The furnishings in this room are no different from before, but somehow it makes people feel like something is missing.

If you feel it carefully, it is just a little quieter here and less cold.

Wei WuXian called out, “Senior.”

The room was empty and silent, and a faint echo could be heard after a shout.

After waiting for a few seconds, just as Wei Wuxian was about to shout a second time, a person appeared on the tail of the fish-shaped statue.

It's that young man.

The young man looked a little sleepy and not very energetic.

Wei WuXian asked, “Senior, you look very tired? But what happened?”

The young man leaned against the statue and said, "I've removed the soul-sucking formation."

Wei WuXian was surprised and said, “This soul-sucking formation is closely connected to you. I didn’t expect you to act so skillfully.”

Wei WuXian really didn't expect that he would remove the soul-capturing formation so quickly.

He originally came here not only to ask about Lan Wangji's situation, but also to discuss this matter with him.

Now that the two of them have exchanged fates, the young man no longer needs to rely on the villagers to maintain his life.

However, this soul-capturing formation is an important source of maintaining the young man's spiritual power.

I didn't expect that he would withdraw the formation as soon as his fate changed.

It's really unbelievable.

Although the young man had exchanged his fate with him, his future life would not continue to be punished by the previous heavenly calamity.

But once this soul-capturing formation stops working, the spiritual power that is fed back to the young man will no longer be supplied.

No wonder he looks so listless right now.

The young man smiled slightly and said, "Do you think I'm some bloodthirsty monster that wants to take people's lives?"

Wei WuXian said, “No.”

The young man yawned: "I know you came here to talk about Lan Wangji."

Wei WuXian nodded and said, “I checked Lan Zhan’s body and everything is normal, but why hasn’t he woken up yet?”

The young man said, "Everything is just a matter of waiting. You should also know that even if the souls match, it will take time to merge."

"You are too impatient."

Wei Wuxian was indeed anxious. The moment he woke up but didn't see Lan Wangji wake up, he subconsciously tried to find out the reason.

I'm afraid that if I don't check it, I'll miss the opportunity.

The young man stepped down from the statue and came in front of Wei Wuxian.

The young man touched Wei Wuxian's brow with his fingertips, and a light red light appeared at his fingertips and then disappeared into his sleeves.

Keep it.

Wei WuXian asked: “What is this?”

"Soul." The young man sighed and said, "Alas, what a pity, there is only one soul left."

Wei WuXian asked: “Which soul of mine?”

The young man nodded: "This soul and this spirit, I will return the spirit to you, and I will keep the soul."

Wei WuXian was puzzled: “What’s the use of this?”

The young man slowly walked into the inner room, and Wei Wuxian followed him.

There is wine and tea here, and there is a vase on the table with a bouquet of flowers in it, which looks quite elegant.

The young man poured two cups and pushed one of them in front of Wei Wuxian: "I want to understand your human emotions."

Wei WuXian: “?”

The young man continued, "What is love in this world? It is to make people stay together for life and death."

“…” Wei WuXian’s mouth twitched: “…This…Didn’t you comment before that this was ridiculous?”

The young man took a sip of wine and said, "It is precisely because I think you are ridiculous that I want to understand."

Wei WuXian said: “Then if you use my soul, will this…”

Before Wei WuXian could finish his next words, the young man interrupted him: “Don’t overthink it. I look down on mortals like you.”

Wei Wuxian: “…”

In fact, from the very beginning, based on the young man's feelings and understanding, he had always been reluctant to suggest Wei Wuxian to go in and use his soul to replenish Lan Wangji.

The soul that represented memory was specially extracted by him.

The reason why he kept Wei Wuxian's soul and spirit was not entirely to use it as a bargaining chip, so as to prevent Wei Wuxian from breaking the agreement they had made before.

Part of the reason why he kept Wei Wuxian's soul and spirit in the beginning was that he wanted Wei Wuxian to tell him stories.

Wei Wuxian is a quick-witted and eloquent person who is quite interesting. With him telling stories, the future path of cultivation will not be so boring.

Of course, in addition to this reason, there is another reason why he didn't want Wei Wuxian to use his soul to make up for it. In fact, he knew from the beginning what soul Lan Wangji was missing.
