The next day, Wei Wuxian managed to find a donkey and he also realized that the wounds on his arm were healed except for one deep wound. Most of the revenge was done but one remained. Lan Rin managed to find a horse. The two of them made their way from Mo Village to Dafan Mountain. Wei Wuxian spoke:
"How is your hand?"
Lan Rin:
"It still hurts a bit. How are your wounds?"
Wei Wuxian:
"One remained."
Lan Rin:
"It looks like we have a mystery to solve."
Wei Wuxian and Lan Rin arrived at the Dafan Mountain, they saw a group of cultivators, she said:
"What in the... what is happening here."
Random cultivator:
"Have you heard? There is a soul-eating monster here."
Lan Rin looked at Wei Wuxian, Wei Wuxian tried to speak with the cultivators but, he couldn't as they ignored him. Wei Wuxian and Lan Rin followed the group closely from the rear. They stopped by some trees to rest and suddenly a young woman came, an old woman was running after the young one shouting:
"A-YAN!"
Wei Wuxian looked at the young women. The young woman offered Wei Wuxian an apple saying:
"Apple"
Wei Wuxian was shocked. Suddenly, the donkey sniffed the apple and took a liking to it. Wei Wuxian took the apple, it was indeed for the taste of the donkey. The young woman happily said:
"Little Apple! Little Apple!"
Wei Wuxian spoke with the donkey:
"Did you hear it? I will call you Little Apple! Let's go!"
Wei Wuxian and Lan Rin thanked the young woman and left. They went for a while, and suddenly the young woman appeared again, this time she looked different, she was focused on something, she started dancing. Wei Wuxian felt like he saw such a dance from long ago but he couldn't quite make sense of the situation. An old woman was running and shouting:
"A-YAN!"
Wei Wuxian saw the old woman and he threw a talisman at A-Yan, knocked her out, he then asked:
"Madam, what is wrong with Lady A-Yan?"
The old woman answered:
"A terrible thing happened. A-Yan was happily engaged. Who would have known that her happiness would last so short. Her fiance died shortly after the engagement. A-Yan was sad. She went up the mountain. When she came back, she was different. She didn't eat or drink. She didn't recognize us. A few days later my husband went up the mountain too. A-Yan got better, she was at least eating and drinking but a few days later my husband died. Since then, A-Yan has been coming to the Dafan Mountain and dancing at this spot."
Wei Wuxian thanked the lady, saying:
"Sorry, it must be hard for you."
Wei Wuxian found Lan Rin and said:
"Let's go, I have a lead."
Lan Rin nodded and followed to a river bay, they were both tired. They sat and drank some water, and laid down, looking at the sky, Lan Rin spoke:
"Xian, do you think that we could go back to the old days?"
Wei Wuxian:
"I don't know Rinrin..."
