wei wuxian coughed out the water that managed to get into his system as he steadied himself; drenched in cold water from head to toe before his silver eyes caught the glimpse of the youngest jade.
lan wangji stood, looking around their surroundings. the two were inside a strange looking tunnel that lead further into a dimly lit pathway.
‘this place…’ lan wangji's golden eyes carefully scanned his area. wei wuxian looked at lan wangji. his body shivered because of the coldness whereas lan wangji stood completely unaffected.
❛lan zhan, what is this place?❜ although wei wuxian knew what it really was, yet he asked the obvious — trying to relive the same moments from before.
lan wangji did not respond and silently stepped forward, walking further inside the tunnel pathway.
wei wuxian immediately followed right after him.
‘it’s the cold cave. but how did we get here? what pulled us in here?’
wei wuxian wondered the same as lan wangji. even last time, the two were pulled inside the cold cave by an invisible force. and this time, it was the same. though, wei wuxian already had an idea it would happen. yet the two don't know what it really was.
❛this place is so weird. it's even colder inside.❜ wei wuxian visibly shuddered; somehow the coldness around him was affecting him more than necessarily.
lan wangji remained silent the whole time. wei wuxian didn't expect any response from the male either. he also talked less as compared to last time when he kept asking questions but only got silence in response from the male.
soon, the two found themselves entering a certain place. standing knee deep in the cold water, both wei wuxian and lan wangji stared at the blank space at the front; a guqin placed neatly on the snowy bed.
wei wuxian recognized it at once. it was where the two encountered the soul of 𝙡𝙖𝙣 𝙮𝙞.
lan wangji stepped forward, getting closer to the guqin. wei wuxian prepared himself for the attack and as he had expected, the strings vibrated on their own and a sharp, blue flash was directed at him.
it passed through lan wangji without harming it and directly attacked wei wuxian who immediately bent his body backwards, avoiding it.
lan wangji stood startled by the scene before he realized it, ‘the chord assassination. it's attacking wei ying.’
he had noticed the engraved seal of lan clan on the guqin and realized that the guqin recognized him as the blood heir of the lan clan and so, it wasn't harming him and only attacking wei wuxian.
as wei wuxian straightened up, another blue flash was directed at him. but before it could even reach closer to it, lan wangji send his sword—blocking the attack.
wei wuxian breathed in relief before he caught sight of the snow furred rabbits around the snow bed of the cave.
he immediately shouted, ❛lan zhan-! lend me your forehead ribbon or this thing will kill me!❜
wei wuxian watched as lan wangji immediately jumped over to wei wuxian's side. there was a slight hint of hesitation in his actions as wei wuxian had already expected, before lan wangji finally pulled his forehead ribbon away and tied it around his and wei wuxian's hands, securely.
wei wuxian sighed in relief. everything seemed to be going according to the actual plot line. he was too caught up feeling assured to notice the change in lan wangji's demeanor. he did not notice the tips of lan wangji’s ears turning red and the way he kept gulping heavily every passing second.
