Jiang Liang and Chen Hong just sat down crisscross applesauce on the floor while the adults searched around the library. Jiang Liang started meditating and Chen Hong just sighed in boredom, he then looked at Jiang Liang.
' Meditating out of boredom? I can do that... if my head didn't give me any problems! '
"Chen Hong" Lan Anhe walked back to the boys with a scroll in her hands, "I found the perfect tune for this solution. However, you will experience your past as I will play this"
"I'm ready for that. If this will stop me from having any blockage of my memories, then I'll tough it out" Chen Hong said. Jiang Liang opened his eyes and looked at his mother with a worried look, "A-Niang... will A-Die be okay? I'm worried about him"
"Your father will be okay. I'm sure he wanted you out of Jinlintai since you were sensing the perpetrator. I'm curious as to why they would randomly appear there after Jin Guangyao exposed Wei Ying..." That's when Lan Anhe realized something.
' So there is more than one perpetrator... they worked together to cause problems with Lotus Pier... and they still tend to do that. Not on my watch! '
"Madam Jiang, will this help me find out about my mother's death?" Chen Hong asked, "We will see..." Lan Anhe stared at the scroll.
"Found it" everyone heard Lan Zhan's voice and walked to him. Wei Ying was the first one there and saw Lan Zhan reading "Collection of Turmoil"
Wei Ying started playing his bamboo flute, while reading the notes on the page, "The tune broke off" he noticed that a page was ripped out of the book.
"There was a page that was torn off" Lan Zhan says as he turns the book, "The Collection of Turmoil". What sort of songs are in this book?" Wei Ying asks. "Dark music from Dongying. If you channel spiritual energy into the tune as you play it, it can do harm to others. It can cause one to lose all of their senses and even qi deviation" Xichen explained.
"Clan Leader Lan. If one were to include a part of this tune into "Cleansing" and played it for months, maybe even years, would it act as a slow poison and trigger Chifeng-zun's saber spirit?" Wei Ying asked.
"It is possible. But A-Yao has a very good memory. It is unnecessary for him to take the page with him" Xichen answered. "Tearing the page off is just a way to ensure that no one can find the source of this tune" Lan Anhe stated. "But I have never told him about the secret of the Room of Forbidden Books" Xichen argued.
"Clan Leader Lan, given Lianfang-zun's capabilities, do you really think he wouldn't be able find it on his own?" Wei Ying asks. Xichen just stayed silent.
"Hanguang-Jun, Mr. Lan requests your presence" a Lan disciple told him, "I'll go and see Uncle. You go back to Jing Room with Brother" Lan Zhan said to Wei Ying.
"All right"
"I'll meet you guys there later. I have my own business to take care of" Lan Anhe said. Wei Ying noticed her holding a scroll in her hand, "Lan Zhan, I'll go back to Jing Room after. I want to help Lan Mei out for now" Wei Ying said. Lan Zhan nodded before he left.

The sun was setting over at the Cloud Recesses. Lan Anhe took Wei Ying and the boys to the Gusu Borders. Xichen also tagged along with them.
"Lan Mei, what's the scroll for?" Wei Ying asks, "To help regain Chen Hong's memories. He is the key on figuring out what happened seven years ago with me and A-Liang" Lan Anhe answered.
