When Wei Wuxian traveled back in time

Lan Jingyi said: "The landlords in this town are really powerful. Not only are they rich, but they also control a large amount of local arable land."

Wei WuXian said, “Situations like this are common in many small places, where wealth is often concentrated in the hands of a few people. The landlord we met this time was relatively good, but there are many such black-hearted people who take human lives lightly in other places.”

Lan Jingyi said indignantly: "If there really are such evil people, then the people who are bullied by them and turn into evil spirits to murder them are indeed what they deserve!"

Wei WuXian smiled slightly, patted Lan JingYi's shoulder gently, and advised: "Just say this to me, don't let your uncle hear it. Your uncle is a conservative person, he can't stand these remarks."

Lan Jingyi said: "I think what I said is correct. Good will be rewarded with good, and evil will be punished with evil. Since you have committed evil, it is only natural that you will be punished by the evil you have committed."

Wei WuXian said: “You are right.”

Lan Jingyi asked: "Why?"

Wei WuXian said: “Because we are cultivators, and our mission is to eliminate demons and defend the Way.”

Lan Jingyi pursed his lips and said, "But I think this is so unfair. It's okay if it's just an ordinary evil spirit. We can just kill it naturally."

"But if it's like the woman we met this time, if her family was really killed by the rich businessman, and she turned the tables to seek revenge, then should we still help the rich businessman deal with her?"

Wei WuXian took out his flute and touched it, saying, “That’s why I told you before, we are immortal cultivators, and exorcising evil spirits is our duty, but there are other things besides exorcising evil spirits.”

"If that's the case, it depends on what you do."

"As a rule, we are monks hired by the wealthy businessman, so of course we have to protect him and get rid of evil spirits."

After hearing this, Lan Jingyi felt that if an ordinary person was oppressed in life and finally turned into a ghost after death but still could not take revenge, it would be too aggrieved! He felt depressed and felt that there was a suffocation in his chest, which was extremely uncomfortable.

Lan Jingyi frowned and said angrily, "What if it was you, Senior Wei? What would you do?"

Wei Wuxian placed the flute in his hand to his lips and played a few notes at random. The flute sound was melodious and long, slowly echoing in the air.

Wei WuXian sighed slightly and said with a rather regretful tone: “As for me… I am too weak now and my strength is not as good as before. If I encounter a powerful evil spirit, I am afraid that not only will I not be able to defeat it, but I will also be injured by it. By then, I won’t even be able to protect myself, let alone others.”

No matter what he does, what can others do to him?

You must have your own judgment in everything you do. Whether it is a ghost or a demon, good or evil, you cannot escape the truth of the facts.

After hearing Wei Wuxian's words, Lan Jingyi smiled, and suddenly something became clear in his mind: "Junior understands."

Wei WuXian smiled knowingly at this and began to play the flute leisurely.

……

Because I was in a hurry when I came here, I didn't even spend half a day flying here on my sword to handle the business.

However, I was not so anxious when I returned.

Twenty miles is not a far distance. The group walked and stopped, looked around and played, and it took nearly a day to reach Gusu.

It was not until the afternoon of the next day that Wei Wuxian and his friends finally arrived at Caiyi Town.

Entering the town, you are greeted by a familiar atmosphere and scene.

Wei WuXian turned around and told Lan JingYi and the others behind him, “Just go back and report, don’t worry about me.”

Before he finished speaking, he had already disappeared like a gust of wind.

At this moment, it is dusk, the sun is gradually setting, casting its last rays of light on the earth.

Withered vines, old trees, crows, small bridges, flowing water, and houses, smoke rising from the chimneys.

Children are playing shuttlecock on the street, with the afterglow shining on them, creating a particularly warm picture.

Seeing that they were having fun, Wei Wuxian went over to join in the fun. After playing a few rounds with them, these children were called back by their families to eat.

"Goodbye brother!"

Wei WuXian smiled and waved to them.

At this time, it has been at least seven days since Lan Wangji followed Lan Xichen to Qinghe to discuss matters. I don’t know if he has returned.

Wei Wuxian wandered around Caiyi Town and after visiting a few stalls, it quickly got dark.

The moon rises.

The evenings in Caiyi Town are mostly lively only during festivals and holidays. On other days, there are rarely any shops busy at night.

When passing by a brightly lit den of brothel, Wei Wuxian just took a look inside.

He was immediately spotted by the people greeting guests at the door. The moment those people were about to rush towards him, Wei Wuxian was like a frightened bird, and he spread his legs and ran away in one breath.

Wei Wuxian ran all the way to the side of the bridge and sat on it for a while. He didn't know whether Lan Wangji had returned from Qinghe.

Looking up in the direction of the cloud recesses, it is so high and so far away.

There is a distance between Caiyi Town and Yunshenbuzhichu from the bottom of the mountain. It is impossible to see what is happening above from below.

But Wei Wuxian thought of something, and he flew over Caiyi Town on his sword. This time he saw a faint light in the darkness.

One of the lamps should be placed in a quiet room.

Lan Zhan is back!

Almost in the next second, Wei Wuxian wanted to fly back to the Cloud Recesses on his sword.

But he held back. Wei Wuxian flew down on his sword and bought some wine and food at a restaurant. He also picked up two jars of Tianzixiao. After buying these things, he hurried towards the direction of Cloud Recesses.

It happened so quickly that by the time Wei Wuxian flew through the barrier and returned to the quiet room on his sword, it was already dark and pitch dark.

There were only a few lights on in the Cloud Recesses, making it seem particularly deserted and quiet.

When I arrived at the door of the quiet room, I saw bright light coming from inside.

Wei WuXian gently opened the door and walked into the room, only to find that no one was inside.

After Wei WuXian had set the table, he went out to look for someone.

He casually asked a Lan family disciple who was in charge of patrolling if he had seen Lan Wangji.

The patrolling disciple thought for a moment and replied, "It seems that I saw Han Guangjun walking towards the mountain gate not long ago."

Wei Wuxian then realized that Lan Wangji had probably learned about Lan Jingyi's return, and after asking, he learned that he was still staying in Caiyi Town, so he probably went down the mountain to look for him.

Wei WuXian wondered whether he should go back to the quiet room and wait, but then he thought that if he just waited here, what if Lan WangJi couldn’t find him and kept looking for him there?

So Wei Wuxian prepared to go down the mountain.

Just when Wei WuXian was about to reach the barrier at the mountain gate, he saw a man coming back from outside the barrier.

This person is Lan Wangji.
