The drizzle has been falling since the morning, and the mist is shrouded in smoke. The hazy mist makes the entire Seventy-Two Peaks look like a fairyland.
Living in such a place is the most suitable for those who practice spirituality. This place is extremely spiritual and conducive to spiritual cultivation.
At 7:30 in the morning, Mu Qian opened her eyes on time. Listening to the sound of raindrops outside the window, she looked sideways.
The wooden hollow window was half opened, and she could feel the coolness outside.
There was a knock at the door, and Mu Qian sat up straight and looked at the door.
"Miss Mu Qian, are you awake?"
The voice outside is not the voice of a spiritual doctor, but the voice of Heng Li.
"I'll wait for you outside. When you wake up we should set off."
Mu Qian was still in a daze, and after reacting for a while, she finally remembered that Chi Si said he was taking her to Wangyue Peak to recuperate.
But it’s not like it’s so early.
After a simple wash, Mu Qian opened the door to the room. Heng Li stood in the corridor and waited in a very polite manner. When he saw the people coming out, he nodded slightly and said hello.
"Sir is already waiting for you to have breakfast."
Chi Si's life was extremely regular, and his breakfast time was exactly the same.
Mu Qian especially likes to stay with this kind of person who eats on time.
"Let's go." She walked in front of Hengli.
Fu Chenling stood at the door and looked at the girl who walked out of the Spiritual Medicine Center with Heng Li.
During class, I didn't realize how close Chi Si and Yun Muqian were. They were even colder than ordinary teacher-student relationships.
Although he knew about the relationship between Chi Si and the Yun family, he just pretended that they were not familiar with each other.
Moreover, during this period of time when Chi Si was in the academy, many girls showed their attentiveness, but they were all blocked by Heng Li beside him.
He keeps a good distance from the opposite sex and looks completely clean and self-possessed.
But now, Chi Si delayed going down the mountain after Mu Qian was injured, and now he takes him directly to Wangyue Peak to take care of him personally.
In this, he always felt that something was wrong.
After Mu Qian left the spiritual doctor's hall, three people came in one after another holding umbrellas at the door. Fu Chenling narrowed her eyes at two of them.
Mu Qian's shoes were wet when she arrived at Wangyue Peak. The drizzle was the wettest, as thin and continuous as needle thread.
Holding an umbrella and walking along the path, the plants growing on the roadside rubbed against her trouser legs. After walking around in this way, her trouser legs were almost wet.
"You go and change your clothes first." Hengli took the umbrella from her hand.
The heating is turned on indoors, so it's cool in the summer on this mountain, but once autumn comes, the temperature drops as soon as it rains.
Heng Li walked over to Chi Si. The man was sitting at the desk writing something.
The table opposite was not filled with exquisite snacks like before, but only a bowl of noodles.
Seeing this, the corner of Heng Li's mouth twitched. After a while, Miss Mu Qian saw this posture and couldn't help but start an argument.
Sure enough, Mu Qian, who stopped running to the dining table after coming out of the room, saw the noodle bowl on the table and her eyes were full of doubts. She looked around and then looked at Heng Li.
"Where's breakfast?"
The man who was writing with his head down said without raising his head, "On the table."
Mu Qian was surprised, "Are you going to eat noodles this morning?"
She thought she had made a mistake just now. Ever since entering Wangyue Peak, this person had had noodles for breakfast.
And Chi Si doesn't seem to like eating food with soup, so eating noodles for breakfast seems a bit strange to this man.
"Is it just mine?" Mu Qian looked at the only bowl of noodles on the table.
Don't finish eating behind her back.
"Don't you like noodles the most? I'll make them for you from now on." Chi Si looked up at her, half-smiling.
"Who likes to eat noodles!" Mu Qian retorted without thinking.
But she quickly reacted. She looked at the noodles on the table and then at Chi Si.
"Where were you last night?"
The last time she ate noodles was the bowl of longevity noodles given by Qu Zhaoran last night. This person must have seen it and thought she liked noodles.
"Go and spy on me!" Mu Qian angrily stood up.
Heng Li, who had just walked in front of her, was so frightened that he almost dropped the things in his hands. He glanced at Chi Si.
I have to say that Miss Mu Qian's voyeurism is really suitable.
Last night, my husband was worried that Miss Mu Qian would not eat well at the Spiritual Medicine Center, so he brought some snacks there. But when he arrived, he happened to see a scene of young girls sitting together admiring the moon and chatting.
Qu Zhaoran was very kind to Miss Mu Qian and ate all the noodles in his hand.
Sir, is this considered jealous?
"Eat quickly and then go lie down and rest." Chi Si said without raising his head.
His cold and indifferent look actually made Mu Qian feel that she was making trouble unreasonably, which made her even more angry.
"Miss Mu Qian, there is also medicine soup." Heng Li put the medicine bowl in front of her.
"Chi Si, I think something is wrong with you these days." Mu Qian sat back down, intending to calmly communicate with the person in front of her.
This man had been mostly indifferent to her in the past. Although their relationship seemed distant to outsiders, Mu Qian knew that there was a line of non-interference between them.
But I don't know when it started, the line seemed to be broken.
"You can't do this, Mr. Chi. Although we are a cooperative relationship, I also have human rights, and we are in an equal relationship, so you can't spy on me secretly."
Mu Qian said it so seriously that Hengli couldn't help but sigh.
What should he say? Sir is not here to monitor.
Which person watching would bring snacks there.
"After all, you are the dignified fourth master of the Chi family. How can you do such a sneaky thing? Besides, why are you staring at me every day?" Mu Qian said nonstop.
Perhaps the girl opposite was too noisy, so Chi Si put down the materials in his hand, looked up at her, raised the corners of his delicate lips, and smiled.
Mu Qian was so surprised by this smile that cold sweat broke out on her back.
"If you have something to say, please say it, but you don't want to do anything."
Seeing him coming from behind the desk, Mu Qian leaned back and tried to stay as far away from him as possible.
"You're right, it's really not good to be sneaky."
The man said and stretched out his hand. Mu Qian tilted her head and his palm fell on her shoulder.
"So it's better to be aboveboard in the future."
After saying this, he put away his hand and straightened up, "Drink the medicine."
It wasn't until Chi Si left the room that Mu Qian realized what she was doing. She grabbed Heng Li, who had just watched a show.
"Did your husband hit his brain?"
Or is it because the body has been taken over by some evil spirit? Is there such a big contrast in personality?
He had clearly disliked her some time ago, but why did she look so wrong now?
Mu Qian racked her brains and finally came up with a word.
Was Chi Si trying to seduce her?
Yes, it's seduction.
"During this period, my husband has nightmares more frequently, and every time he wakes up, he is covered in cold sweats. Even his midday nap is disturbed by nightmares," Heng Li said.
"Nightmare?"
Hearing this, Mu Qian realized that the girl he didn't know what she looked like in his dream was here again.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sympathize.
"Mr. is in a good mood every time he sees you, so it may be a little relief to him that you can come and stay here."
After hearing Heng Li's words, Mu Qian looked back and realized that Chi Si must be having a hard time being trapped in nightmares for so many years.
When she has doubts in her heart, she will always pursue the answer with this doubt, just like herself.
Chi Si was sitting in the pavilion in the courtyard. The bamboo curtains drawn down on all sides blocked the outside view and blocked the raindrops blown by the wind.
On the chessboard in front of him was a chess game that had already been laid out. During the move, a hand dropped the chess piece below him in front of him.
"It's wrong for you to play like this. You have to be restrained in playing chess. You have to learn slowly with me."
A familiar female voice sounded in his ears.
Chi Si looked up and saw a girl in a white gown sitting opposite him. She was smart and playful, and the bell on her hand jingled with her movements.
"What are you looking at? You're not happy to learn from me. Do you know how many people have asked me to teach them but they still can't get them."
The girl raised her head proudly.
Her face was still misty, surrounded by a cloud of mist.
The chess piece in Chi Si's hand fell, and the people in front of him disappeared into thin air.
"Chi Si, why are you so dazed?"
The female voice coming from behind made his heart suddenly hurt. Looking back, Mu Qian had already walked to sit down opposite Chi Si.
"What's wrong with you?" Mu Qian leaned over.
His face doesn't look good, what's going on?
That familiar feeling hit her again. Chi Si raised his hand and held her wrist, "I'm fine."
The moment his fingers touched her, the pain in his heart stopped.
"Why are you out here if you don't have a good rest?" Chi Si stared at the marks on her shoulders that were wet by the rain.
"Don't pretend to be here now. It's just a minor injury. I'm here to ask you, are you really planning to go down the mountain again during the Mid-Autumn Festival?"
She always kept the matter of Mingyang Mausoleum in mind.
The college issued a notice in the morning that because of the exam, they could set off down the mountain in three days, and they would have three days of leave to go back to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.
To be safe, she must go with Chi Si this time.
Even if it is not for the sake of clearing the mirror, it is also for the sake of the Demon Purification Tower.
"Didn't you say there is someone you care about here? Why are you so anxious to go down the mountain now?" Chi Si said nonchalantly.
Mu Qian didn't pay attention to his strange aura, "I'm going to come back anyway."
The top priority is to find out whether the Pure Demon Pagoda is really in the Mingyang Tomb.
"The Mingyang Tomb is located in the hinterland of the mountain. There are intricate formations in it. The Qiankun Ring is only the key to open it, but it is not an unimpeded pass."
The risks should not be low. To put it bluntly, whether you can reach the mausoleum gate depends on your own ability.
"Fu Yunliu is not a simple person. He will not let us go just like that. Since the world is in his hands, he must know the effect, otherwise he would not have hidden it for so many years." Mu Qian analyzed.
Therefore, it is not ruled out that Fu Yunliu may be following them to cause mischief, but one should be careful to watch out for this person.
"What did you see at Jiazifeng?" Chi Si stared at her.
The bamboo curtain floated in the breeze, and the two faced each other. Mu Qian hid the secret in her heart and was unwilling to tell it. The man opposite had a sharp and sharp look that could detect all things.
"Sir, the people from Shu Ling Department are here." Heng Li's voice sounded in the distance.
Chi Si and Mu Qian looked at the courtyard door at the same time, their movements uniform.
The red-painted wooden door opened from the side, and the two people at the door held simple oil-paper umbrellas in their hands. After stepping into the courtyard, they walked towards them on the stone road.
The paper umbrella was slightly raised, and Mu Qian recognized the heroic yet beautiful face under the umbrella.
It's Qiuyue Velvet.
The two put away their umbrellas. The man next to her was dressed in dark blue, with strong features and short hair, and the medal on his shoulder informed everyone of his identity.
"Hello, Mr. Chi, I am Qiu Yuerong from the Shafeng team, and this is Chu Zhou from the Poling team."
Chi Si sat still, while Mu Qian stood up and saluted the two of them very politely.
"I heard from the people at the Spiritual Medicine Center that Yun Muqian is recuperating at your place, and we have something we want to ask her about, so we're rashly bothering her."
"light."
The man didn't even give them a look, Qiu Yuerong raised an eyebrow.
The fourth master of the Chi family in the imperial capital is really arrogant.
The purpose of the two coming here is very simple. To investigate what happened in the psychedelic forest, they need to question each student one by one.
Mu Qian and Fu Chenling were seriously injured, so Qiu Yuerong specially put them in the back. He went late in the morning, and when he arrived at the spiritual doctor's hall, Mu Qian had already been picked up.
Even if Mo Xiaosang gives repeated orders, this guest at Wangyue Peak has a distinguished status and cannot be easily disturbed.
But if you don't come here, you won't see Yun Muqian.
"Tell me the time you saw the ostrich and your own situation at that time."
As soon as the three of them sat down in the side hall, Qiu Yuerong spoke expressionlessly, with a business-like attitude.
"I can't remember the time clearly. When I saw it, Fu Chenling and the others had already deployed the top three formations." Mu Qian said honestly, "I was injured at the time and my brain was dizzy. I don't remember some details very clearly."
Qiu Yuerong looked at her chest. Because the wound was far away from her heart, the clothes she was wearing blocked the bandage.
According to the spiritual doctor, Yun Muqian's injury was serious.
"Can I check your wound?"
Mu Qian nodded, Qiu Yuerong injected a spiritual energy into her body, and clearly detected the injuries on her body, which were indeed not fake.
It was really badly hurt.
During the questioning process, Chu Zhou did not say a word during the whole process. He just sat in his place with a cold face. It was impossible to analyze what he was thinking under his ice-like face.
The two came out of Wangyue Peak, Qiu Yuerong's tone was cold.
"Her injuries were indeed caused by a wraith spirit. They were close to the heart and were very serious."
Moreover, Ye Xuange's words also proved that they all saw Yun Muqian injured with their own eyes, and there was no falsehood.
He was injured at that point in time. The injury was so severe that he could no longer move, and it was impossible for him to have the strength to stir up trouble.
In this way, one more suspect has been eliminated.
Chu Zhou raised his hand, and a green-lined bird slowly landed on his fingertips, chirping and singing in the wind.
