Lan Wangji, Jiang Cheng, and Wen Ning had gone in pursuit of the figure in black and had not yet returned. The air outside was thick with poisonous mist, and to ensure the safety of the youngsters, Wei Wuxian and Nie Huaisang had no choice but to have everyone stay put here for the time being. The space was not large, and the surroundings were crowded with numerous paper figures, making it look rather eerie. The juniors were all huddled together.
"Tap, tap, tap." A sound came from outside the door, causing everyone to look nervous. Wei Wuxian peered through a hole in the door and saw a blind girl dressed in white robes; the sound they had just heard was made by the bamboo pole she was holding. The juniors were extremely curious and asked Wei Wuxian what he saw. Wei Wuxian stepped aside to let them observe for themselves, telling them to describe what they saw in a moment.

Terrified, he let out a startled cry and stumbled backward repeatedly. Lan Sizhui then stepped up to look, and just like before, the girl appeared right in front of him coughing up blood. Looking equally terrified, Lan Sizhui stumbled backward and was about to speak.
