"Urghhh, What's this heavy thing on top of me?!
Aiyyaa! What kind of pond has this big and heavy fishes?" Wei Wuxian grumbled, dazed, trying to push that heavy fish aside to breathe properly when suddenly that fish groaned.
Wei Wuxian stilled.
Cautiously, she opened her eyes and the moment she saw what or rather who was lying on top of her, she shrieked, "Lan Zhan!"
The fish uh, Lan Zhan jerked awake hearing Wei Wuxian's voice and frowned, "What happened?"
"What are you doing here? And what's this place? And..and you are too heavy!"
Only then Lan Wangji noticed their awkward position, ears burning red with unsaid emotions, he quickly got up and held out his hand for a shivering Wei Wuxian, helping him to stand up, "The sacred cold pond cave."
"Cold pond cave? The one where Elder Lan Yi retreated with a piece of Yin iron?" Wei Wuxian asked, rubbing his hands and body while quickly walking forward in the knee deep ice cold water, alongside Lan Wangji
"Mn"
"Have you been here before?"
"No"
"How did we come here?"
"Whirlpool"
"Do you think there's a reason why we come here?"
"Maybe"
"Where are we going?"
"Exit"
"Can't we explore this cave?"
"No"
Wei Wuxian kept on asking random questions, trying to divert his mind from the bone chilling temperature of the cold pond cave and wet clothes when suddenly a strong wave of spiritual energy accompanied by the sound of zither attacked him.
In a flash, Lan Wangji unsheathed Bichen and blocked the attack, saving Wei Wuxian who stood there in awe, impressed by powerful killing aura of a simple sound wave.
"Chord Assassination Technique!" Wei Wuxian exclaimed
"Am I right Lan Zhan? It's that infamous Chord Assassination Technique invented by Elder Lan Yi, right?" Wei Wuxian asked, his eyes sparkling with wonder, skin blushed pink and his soft pink lips quivering with cold
Lan Zhan paused, finally getting a chance to look at Wei Wuxian's ethereal beauty to his heart's content.
"Mn"
Before they could relax, several sound waves attacked them one after the other, each with a strength stronger than before.
Wei Wuxian noticed that all the waves were targetting only him. He thought of all the possible reasons and the only difference that stood out between them was, "Lan Zhan! Your headband!"
"What?" Lan Zhan asked, successfully fending off the attacks
"None of the attacks are targeting you. I believe it's because I'm an outsider but to an instrument that can neither see nor hear, there's only one thing it can use to identify a Lan member, the forehead ribbon!
Quick! Give me your forehead ribbon. We need to hold it together for the zither to consider me as a part of Lan clan and stop it's attack," Wei Wuxian said, urgently, while dodging another wave
Lan Wangji glared at Wei Wuxian with millions of emotions swirling in his eyes. He untied his forehead ribbon and wrapped it's one end around his own wrist and the other around Wei Wuxian's.
