Lan WangJi: "Brother, why did you decide to bring them?"
Lan WangJi: "Exterminating water ghouls is not a matter suited for joking around."
Lan XiChen: "Wei Ying and Jiang Cheng are Sect Leader Jiang's beloved head disciples." [Wei Ying = Wei WuXian's informal birth name]
Lan XiChen: "They are quite well-known in Yunmeng, even called the 'Twin Talents'. It is likely that they know more than joking around."
Lan WangJi: "Hmph. Is that so."
Lan XiChen: "In addition, didn't you want him to go?
Lan WangJi: "Ah?"
Lan XiChen: "I saw you looked somewhat as if you wanted the one called Wei WuXian to come."
Lan XiChen: "That's why I agreed."
Lan WangJi: "I.... There was no such thing."
Wei WuXian: "We've come!"
Wei WuXian: "Brother Nie was afraid his big brother would ask of his studies, so he went back to review his books."
Wei WuXian: "No need to wait for him, let's depart!"
Jiang Cheng: "ZeWu-Jun, may I ask where the water ghouls are causing trouble?" [ZeWu-Jun = formal title for Lan XiChen]
Lan XiChen: "Caiyi Town."

Female passerby: (sigh)
Townsperson: "What are you doing? Flipping over my wine, don't you have eyes you can use?"
Female passerby: "Come on, why are you so mean? I'll pay you for it, okay?"
Wei WuXian: "Wow, even when Gusu people are swearing at each other, they still talk in such a sugary way."
Wei WuXian: "Jiang Cheng, here's some rice wine for you. Catch!"
(Wei WuXian throws Jiang Cheng some rice wine, which he savors)
Lan WangJi: "Hmph."
Wei WuXian: "Lan Zhan, what are you looking at me for?" [Lan Zhan = Lan WangJi's informal birth name]
Wei WuXian: "It's not that I'm too stingy to buy you any..."
Wei WuXian: "A-aren't people from your sect prohibited from drinking alcohol?" "
Lan WangJi: "Why did you come with us to Caiyi Town?"
Wei WuXian: "I...I came to properly apologize."
Wei WuXian: "Yesterday was my fault. I was wrong. Today, I really am here to help."
Jiang Cheng: "If you want to help, stop chattering and come over here!"
Wei WuXian: "Oh."
Su She: "This side!"
Other disciple: "Oi, bring the boats over!"
Su She: "Young master, the boats are here."
Lan XiChen: "Mm. Everyone, get on the boats."
Other disciples: "Hey, slow down." "Be careful."
Other disciples: "Only go on one at a time." "Slower, slower."
Lan sect disciple: "Hey, Su She, don't you think this Caiyi Town matter is kind of strange?"
Su She: "It is strange. Over all these years, this town has never had any water ghoul problems."
Su She: "Then recently, there have been frequent incidents."
Su She: "If it's not local residents falling into the water for no reason, it's cargo boats inexplicably sinking."
Other disciples: "That's right." "It really is strange." "How could this happen?
Lan XiChen: "Indeed. Yesterday I cast nets over the area. With that one round, I caught over a dozen water ghouls."
Lan XiChen: "I cleaned the corpses and carried them to a nearby part of the town, only to find that quite a few corpses were not recognized by the locals and remained unclaimed."
Wei WuXian: "It's possible the corpses drowned somewhere else and floated here either... but that seems unlikely."
Wei WuXian: "Water ghouls usually only stick to one area, the place where they drowned. They very rarely leave."
Lan XiChen: "That is correct. This was why I asked WangJi and you two to come along, in preparation for any eventuality."
Wei WuXian: "ZeWu-Jun, water ghouls are really clever."
Wei WuXian: "With us taking our time using these boats, isn't it possible that they'll hide underwater and not come out?"
Wei WuXian: "Won't we have to keep on searching forever? What if we can't find them?"
Lan WangJi: "We will search until we find them. That is our duty."
Wei WuXian: "J-just by using nets?"
Lan XiChen: "That's right. Does the Yunmeng Jiang sect have other methods?"
Wei WuXian: "It'd be great if there was something like a fishing bait that could attract the water ghouls to come themselves."
Wei WuXian: "Or something that could point out their directions, like a compass."
Jiang Cheng: "Look down at the water and concentrate on finding them. You're letting your imagination run wild again."
Wei WuXian: (sigh) "Cultivation and riding on swords also used to be just imagination!"
Wei WuXian: Hmm? There's something not right about Lan Zhan's boat...
Wei WuXian: "Lan Zhan! Look at me! Hey!"
(Wei WuXian splashes water at Lan WangJi's boat. Lan WangJi jumps to another boat to dodge.)
Lan WangJi: "Pathetic."
(Wei WuXian kicks Lan WangJi's boat and turns it over)
(Water ghouls appear, having previously been clinging to the boat bottom)
Other disciples: "How are there water ghouls hiding under the boats?" "Cast the nets, cast the nets!"
Other disciples: "ZeWu-Jun, they've been caught! It worked, it worked."
Other disciples: "The others fled." "Use more force!"
Lan XiChen: "Young Master Wei, how did you know WangJi's boat had water ghouls below it?"
Wei WuXian: "Haha, it's simple. The water displacement was wrong."
Wei WuXian: "He was the only person standing on that boat, yet the displacement was greater than those of boats carrying two people. There must have been something clinging to the bottom."
Lan XiChen: "You are indeed experienced."
Lan WangJi: "Hmph."
Wei WuXian: "Hey, Lan Zhan, I didn't purposefully splash water on you."
Wei WuXian: "Water ghouls are really clever. If I said it out loud, they would've heard it and fled."
Wei WuXian: "Wha-hey! Don't ignore more, Second young master Lan!"
Lan WangJi: (whispering) "Pathetic."
Su She: "Hey, there's movement on this side!"
Other disciples: "This side too!" "Over here!" "More water ghouls!"
Wei WuXian: "I'm coming, I'm coming!" (unsheathes his sword) Other disciples: "This side too!" "Over here!" "More water ghouls!"
Lan XiChen: "Nets!"
Su She: "On it, ZeWu-Jun!"
Wei WuXian: (sheathes his sword) "Wow, there really are a lot of them."
Lan WangJi: "What is the name of this sword?"
Wei WuXian: "Whatever."
Lan WangJi: "Mm?"
Wei WuXian: "What-ever." [Yes, his sword is called Suibian, which literally translates to "Whatever", "It doesn't matter", "As you please"]
Lan WangJi: "This sword has a spirit. Calling it as one pleases is disrespectful."
Wei WuXian: "Come on, think outside the box, won't you?"
Wei WuXian: "I wasn't saying you can call it whatever you want, but my sword's name really is 'Whatever'."
Wei WuXian: "Here, look. The name is carved into it."
Lan WangJi: "You--"
Wei WuXian: "You don't need to say anything. I know, you definitely want to ask me why it's called this name."
Wei WuXian: "Actually, there's no special reason behind it."
Wei WuXian: "It was just that, when Uncle Jiang gave me the sword and asked me what I wanted to call it, I came up with over twenty names but wasn't satisfied with any of them."
Wei WuXian: "I thought I might as well just let Uncle Jiang name it, so I answered 'Whatever'!"
Wei WuXian: "Uncle Jiang said, 'If that's how it is, then this sword will be named 'Whatever'." (imitating Jiang FengMian's voice)
Wei WuXian: "After the sword was forged and taken out, these two characters were on it."
Wei WuXian: "Mm, to be honest, this name isn't bad, right?"
Lan WangJi: "...Ridiculous."
Wei WuXian: "Hey, you're a way too boring person."
Wei WuXian: "Don't you see how fun this name is? It's great at tricking serious ones like you, and it works every single time. Haha!"
Jiang Cheng: "More water ghouls are coming! Careful!"
Other disciples: "They're over here!" "Catch them!"
Other disciples: "The net isn't holding them!"
Su She: "These water ghouls are swimming very fast... we can only see a mass of shadows!"
Su She: "The black shadow is headed towards the lake center! Hurry!"
Wei WuXian: "That's strange... this black shadow doesn't look like a human silhouette, and it suddenly changes in size frequently..."
Wei WuXian: "Ah, Lan Zhan, besides your boat!"
(Lan WangJi's sword Bichen unsheathes and stabs into the water) [Bichen = "avoid dust/worldy matters"]
(Bichen flies back out, having not pierced anything) Lan WangJi: ?
Su She: "Second young master Lan, I'll help you."
(Su She also sends his sword into the water)
(Su She calls his sword back but it doesn't come out from the water)
Su She: "Ah, my sword!"
Lan sect disciple: "Su She, why did you act on your own to send your sword into the water, and even lose your sword underwater?"
Su She: "Huh?"
Su She: "I saw that the Second young master also sent his sword into the water..."
Lan sect disciple: "Can you compare to the Second young master Lan?"
Su She: !
Su She: "...Sorry."
(Lan WangJi sends Bichen into the water again)
(Bichen manages to fish something out from the water this time)
Lan WangJi: !
Wei WuXian: "Huh? ...Ahahahahahahahahaha!"
Wei WuXian: "Lan Zhan, you're very impressive! This is my first time seeing someone remove a water ghoul's clothing when they're catching water ghouls."
Jiang Cheng: "You should shut up. The thing that swam underwater really wasn't a water ghoul. There was only a piece of clothing."
Wei WuXian: "So just now, the thing sneaking around was this piece of clothing?"
Wei WuXian: "No wonder why the nets couldn't catch it, swords couldn't pierce it, and its shape kept changing."
Wei WuXian: "However, a piece of clothing couldn't have swallowed up a cultivator's sword."
Wei WuXian: "There must be something else in the water."
Lan WangJi: ! "Brother."
Lan WangJi: "Have everyone go back immediately."
Lan XiChen: "Why?"
Lan WangJi: "The underwater creatures led the boats to the lake center on purpose."
Other disciples: "What's going on?!" "Someone come help!"
(A huge whirlpool manifests, sucking in all the boats)
Lan XiChen: "Hurry! Control your swords!" [PSA: cultivators can fly by standing on their swords]
(Everyone unsheathes their swords and hurriedly jumps off the sinking boats)
Other disciple: "Su She, hurry and get onto land! This place is dangerous!"
Su She: "Ah? But my sword..."
Wei WuXian: ! (swoops down to help the Su She struggling in the water)
Wei WuXian: "Give me your hand!" Su She: "Huh?"
Wei WuXian: "Hurry!" Su She: "Okay!"
(Wei WuXian hauls Su She up, but doesn't get far)
Su She: "It's not working! I'm going to be sucked in!"
Jiang Cheng: "Wei WuXian! What are you doing now?!"
Wei WuXian: "His sword fell into the water! Hurry and lend me a hand! My sword can't carry two people!"
(Lan WangJi swoops in, hauls them both up)
Wei WuXian: "Lan Zhan, your sword's strength is quite high! Thank you, thank you."
Wei WuXian: "Although... could you not hold me by the collar? It's really uncomfortable!"
Wei WuXian: "I'll stretch out my hand to you, you can grab that instead."
Lan WangJi: "I do not have physical contact with other people."
Wei WuXian: "We're already this familiar with each other, how am I still 'other people'?"
Lan WangJi: "Not familiar."
Wei WuXian: "Aw, you can't do this."
Jiang Cheng: "/You/ can't do this!!! Can't you speak a little less when you're being held mid-air by your collar?!"
(Everyone lands on shore, Lan WangJi releases Wei WuXian and Su She)
Su She: "Thank you two very much for saving my life."
Wei WuXian: "You're welcome, you're welcome."
Other disciple: "The thing in the lake... could it be..."
Lan WangJi: "It is a waterborne abyss."
Lan XiChen: (sigh) "This is going to be troublesome."
Other disciple: "What's a waterborne abyss?"
Other disciple: "Some lakes, upon frequently encountering sinking ships or drowning people, will start to develop a personality over time."
Other disciple: "Kind of like a spoiled young mistress who can't tolerate a shortage in her luxurious lifestyle."
Other disciple: "It will demand cargo boats or living humans to sink into the water as sacrifices."
Other disciple: "If there are no sacrifices over a period of time, it will stir up trouble and obtain them on its own. That is what's called a waterborne abyss!"
Other disciple: "But normally, the people of Caiyi Town are all familiar with water. How could a waterborne abyss grow here?"
Wei WuXian: "That means... someone chased it here from another location."
Lan WangJi: "Brother... has there been any area that recently suffered from a waterborne abyss?"
Lan XiChen: "...The QiShan Wen sect."
Other disciples: "So it was the Wen sect?" "How could this situation happen?"
We WuXian: "If you want to get rid of a waterborne abyss, you have to drain the water and clean up the lakebed, which is a very high-cost process."
Wei WuXian: "Driving it to another location and letting it wreck other people... that does sound like the Wen sect's style of doing things."
Other disciple: "The Wen Clan even has the nerve to use the sun as their clan motif, saying something about 'competing with the sun for radiance, matching the sun in longevity'."
Other disciple: "Yet they use these shady means!"
Jiang Cheng: "Keep it down. If Wen sect people hear, that will provoke trouble."
Other disciple: "Mm, I heard that Wen sect has ministers everywhere under the sky, we should still keep quiet." [??? can't hear clearly]
Other disciples: "Really too strange!" "Don't tell me we can only bear it?" "What else can we do?" "The Wen sect doing this is still too much!" "Talk quieter."
Lan XiChen: (sigh) "Let it go, let it go. Change boats, first return to the Cloud Recesses."
Woman: "Fresh loquats, how about a bite?"
Wei WuXian: "Sister, how much for half a kilogram of loquats?"
Woman: "Young beau, you needn't pay. How 'bout I can give you one for free?"
Wei WuXian: "If Sister is giving it to me, naturally I want it!"
(Wei WuXian catches the loquat)
Wei WuXian: "Thank you Sister for your gifted loquat!"
Woman: "Aw, you needn't be so polite. It's for how handsome you look!"
Wei WuXian: "Sister looks even prettier!"
Lan WangJi: "Tch."
Wei WuXian: "What's wrong, Lan Zhan? Jealous, are you?"
Wei WuXian: "Sister, do you think he looks handsome?"
Woman: "Hahahaha, even more handsome!" Lan WangJi: "Hmph."
Wei WuXian: "Then why not give him one too? If you only give me and not him, he's going to be unhappy!"
Woman: "Okay, okay, I'll give a second. Heads up, young beau, catch!"
Wei WuXian: "Sister, you're both pretty and nice. The next time I come here, I'm gonna buy a whole basket!"
Woman: (pointing at Lan WangJi) "Get him to come too. You can buy some together!"
Wei WuXian: "Alright~"
Wei WuXian: "Here, Lan Zhan, eat a loquat!"
Lan WangJi: "Take it away."
Wei WuXian: "I knew you definitely wouldn't accept it, so I never intended to give it to you. Jiang Cheng, catch!"
Jiang Cheng: "Heh, being all flirty again?"
Wei WuXian: "Get lost~"
Wei WuXian: "Hey Lan Zhan, you're from Gusu, so you know how to speak in the Gusu dialect, right?"
Wei WuXian: "Teach me some. How do you swear in the Gusu dialect?"
Lan WangJi: "Pathetic."
(Lan WangJi jumps to another boat)
Lan WangJi: "Brother."
Lan XiChen: "You look like you want to eat loquats. Should we buy a basket and bring it back to the Cloud Recesses?
Lan WangJi: "I do not."
(Lan XiChen laughs)
Wei WuXian: (whispering) "Oi, Jiang Cheng, how about a trip down the mountain?"
Wei WuXian: "There are no classes for these few days, I'll go buy a few jars of Emperor's Smile and bring them back."
Wei WuXian: "Tonight, we won't go home sober, mm?"
(Wei WuXian hops onto the wall)
Lan WangJi: "Those who return after curfew will not be allowed back in before seven in the morning. Out." Wei WuXian: "Ah! Eh?"
Wei WuXian: "These words sound exceedingly familiar... Hey, Lan Zhan! What a coincidence, it's you again!"
Lan WangJi: "Take back your leg."
Wei WuXian: "Aww, why are you like this?"
Lan WangJi: "If a guest breaks curfew too many times, they will need to receive punishment at the Lan sect ancestral hall."
Wei WuXian: "There's only the two of us here. If you don't talk and I don't talk, then nobody would know whether or not I broke curfew, right?"
Wei WuXian: "I promise there won't be a next time. We're already this familiar with each other, so can't you just do this favor?"
Lan WangJi: "Hmph. Not familiar."
Wei WuXian: (sigh) "Fine then."
(The two start fighting once again)
Wei WuXian: "You're fighting so seriously?"
Lan WangJi: "Receive your punishment."
Wei WuXian: "Fine."
(Wei WuXian grabs Lan WangJi tightly so both of them to fall outside the wall of the Cloud Recesses)
Lan WangJi: "Let go of me!" Wei WuXian: "Ahahahahaha, this time we fell off the wall together!"
Wei WuXian: "Ahahahahaha, this time we fell off the wall together!"
Wei WuXian: "Now you're outside of the Cloud Recesses too."
Wei WuXian: "We both broke the curfew, and you can't be harsh toward others and loose toward yourself."
Wei WuXian: "If you punish me, you'll have to punish yourself as well. Equal treatment. How does that sound, Lan Zhan?"
(Lan WangJi struggles free, gets up)
Wei WuXian: "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone else. The only ones who'll know are the sky, the Earth, and us two.
Wei WuXian: "Hey, hey, don't leave! Let's drink together! Hey!"
Wei WuXian: "This little stick-in-the-mud."
Wei WuXian: "~Drink~"
Wei WuXian: "~Whoever loses the dice roll has~ to~ drink~"
(the door opens) Wei WuXian: "~Who is it?~"
Wei WuXian: "~Who else is coming?~"
Wei WuXian: "~Jiang Cheng, is that you?~"
Wei WuXian: "~Come at me, like I'd be scared of you~" Jiang Cheng: "Shut up~"
Lan WangJi: "Hmph."
(Lan WangJi starts dragging Wei WuXian towards the door)
Nie HuaiSang: !! "Brother Lan?!"
Jiang Cheng: "Ah? What's happening? What are you doing?"
Nie HuaiSang: (pushing Wei WuXian to try and wake him up) "Brother Wei! Brother Wei!"
Wei WuXian: "Lan Zhan? What are you doing?"
Lan WangJi: "Receive your punishment."
Lan sect elder: "Bring him over!"
(Wei WuXian is obviously still out of it)
Lan sect elder: "Kneel!"
Wei WuXian: "Ouch! Owwww..."
Wei WuXian: "This is to punish me?"
Lan WangJi: "You have repeatedly broken the house rules, you must receive your punishment."
Wei WuXian: "I won't accept this."
Wei WuXian: "Yesterday night, you--" Lan WangJi: "I will also receive my punishment."
Lan sect elder: "Ready the discipline rulers." Other Lan sect cultivators: "Yes sir."
Jiang Cheng: "Wait a moment! This... this discipline ruler is really too..."
Jiang Cheng: "This punishment is excessive, change to a different method!"
Lan WangJi: "Strike."
Wei WuXian: "Ah, wait wait wait! I accept this, I accept this, Lan Zhan. I was wrong… Gah!"
(Wei WuXian continues crying out in pain with every strike, while Lan WangJi receives every blow without much reaction)
Wei WuXian: "No more strikes, I was wrong, it really hurts!!" (Wei WuXian continues crying out in pain with every strike, while Lan WangJi receives every blow without much reaction)
Wei WuXian: "Jiang Cheng, walk slower. You're almost shaking me off."
Jiang Cheng: "I'm carrying you and you're still this picky?!"
Wei WuXian: "I never asked you to carry me."
Jiang Cheng: "Hmph, if I don't carry you, you'd probably stay in their ancestral hall and roll on the ground all day long. I don't have that thick of a face to lose!"
Jiang Cheng: "Lan WangJi even had fifty more strikes than you, and he walked away by himself."
Jiang Cheng: "And you have the nerve to pretend you're crippled!"
Jiang Cheng: "Hmph, I don't want to carry you anymore. Get off, now!"
Wei WuXian: "I'm not getting off. I'm wounded."
Lan XiChen: "What is going on here?"
Jiang Cheng: "Uh, nothing."
Wei WuXian: "ZeWu-Jun, your younger brother is so cruel. He took me to receive punishment. See?"
Wei WuXian: (raises his swollen red palms) "My hands were beaten into this!"
Lan XiChen: "Haha, yes, this punishment is quite severe indeed."
Lan XiChen: "It is likely the swelling will not subside until after three or four days."
Jiang Cheng: "What? It won't subside even after three or four days?"
Jiang Cheng: "His legs and his back were also hit by the discipline rulers. How could Lan WangJi do this?!"
Lan XiChen: "Nevertheless, it is not severe enough to require medication."
Lan XiChen: "Young Master Wei, let me tell you a method that can heal your injuries in just a few hours."
Wei WuXian: "What method?"
Lan XiChen: "Our Cloud Recesses has a cold spring."
Lan XiChen: "Aside from calming the mind and spirit for cultivation purposes, it can also dispel bruises and heal wounds."
Wei WuXian: "Lan Zhan."
Lan WangJi: "How did you come in?"
Wei WuXian: "ZeWu-Jun let me come in."
Lan WangJi: "What are you doing?"
Wei WuXian: "I already took off my clothes, what do you think I'm here for?"
Wei WuXian: "Such a good place for healing wounds and you didn't tell me, that's really not nice of you!"
(Wei WuXian shivers as he gets into the freezing cold water) Wei WuXian: "Brr... It really is very cold. Brr..."
Lan WangJi: "I came here for cultivation purposes, not to heal."
Lan WangJi: "...Do not leap around!"
Wei WuXian: "But it's so cold, so cold..."
Lan WangJi: "Do not move!"
Wei WuXian: "I just wanted to shift closer to you. Your side is warmer."
Lan WangJi: "It is not."
Wei WuXian: "Alright, Lan Zhan, I honestly admire you.
Wei WuXian: "You really did punish yourself as well, without letting up on yourself at all. I don't have anything else to say."
Wei WuXian: "I've truly never seen someone as prim and proper as you."
Wei WuXian: "I definitely couldn't do the same thing as you. You're very cool."
Wei WuXian: "Lan Zhan, didn't you notice what I was doing just now?"
Lan WangJi: "I do not know."
Wei WuXian: "You don't even know this? I was complimenting you, trying to become more casual with you."
Lan WangJi: "What do you want to do?"
Wei WuXian: "Lan Zhan, why don't we become friends? We're already so familiar."
Lan WangJi: "Not familiar."
Wei WuXian: "Now you're being boring again. Really. There are lots of benefits if you become friends with me."
Lan WangJi: "For example?"
Wei WuXian: "I'm always very loyal towards my friends. For example, if I get hold of new porn, I'd definitely let you be the first person to look at it..."
Wei WuXian: "Hey, hey, come back!"
Wei WuXian: "Ah... It's fine if you don't want to look at them. Have you been to Yunmeng?"
Wei WuXian: "Yunmeng is really fun, and the food is also delicious. It's a lot yummier than the food in your sect anyway."
Wei WuXian: "If you come to Lotus Pier, I can take you to pick lotus seed pods and water chestnuts. Lan Zhan, do you wanna come?"
Lan WangJi: "Not going."
Wei WuXian: "You shouldn't always answer everything with 'not'. You sound so uncaring, girls won't like it."
Wei WuXian: "The girls in Yunmeng look very pretty, different from the sort of pretty in Gusu."
Wei WuXian: "You... sure you don't want to come?"
Lan WangJi: "No."
Wei WuXian: "Fine... then... Tomorrow old man Lan will be coming back."
Wei WuXian: "Why not help me out by saying some good things about me in front of him?"
Wei WuXian: "Come on, don't always fixate on opposing me."
Lan WangJi: "No."
Wei WuXian: "Rejecting me without giving me any respect—aren't you scared that I'll conveniently take your clothes when I leave?"
Lan WangJi: "Hmph." (leaves the cold spring on his own)
Wei WuXian: "Hey! Ah! Why are you leaving? I was joking!"
Jiang Cheng: "Aren't you embarrassed? Getting scolded again by old man Lan during class."
Jiang Cheng: "How many times is that now? Can't you be a bit more law-abiding?"
Wei WuXian: "If he wants to scold me, so be it. I'm not afraid of him."
Wei WuXian: "You heard him quoting scripture and verse, all just to tell me to get lost, to not go near the other pupils, and to especially refrain from tainting his favorite pupil Lan WangJi."
Wei WuXian: "Heh, only telling me to get lost now, isn't it a bit too late?"
Wei WuXian: "I already finished tainting his person before he told me to get lost. It's-too-late~"
Jiang Cheng: ! "Look over there!"
Wei WuXian: "What is it?"
Jiang Cheng: "On the window."
Wei WuXian: "Lan WangJi?"
Jiang Cheng: "He was looking at us."
Wei WuXian: "We weren't making a racket, why was he still looking at us like that?"
Wei WuXian: "Was he thinking of how to find faults with us?"
Jiang Cheng: "Not 'us', but 'you'. I saw he was staring at only you alone."
Wei WuXian: "Heh. Just wait."
Jiang Cheng: "Didn't you dislike how he's boring and not fun? Then you should stop teasing him."
Jiang Cheng: "You just have to pull whiskers from the tiger's mouth, you're courting death."
Wei WuXian: "Wrong. It's precisely because of how much a living person can be boring to that extent. That's what truly makes it so~ fun~"
Jiang Cheng: "What are you doing? Looking for your own death again?"
Wei WuXian: "Don't mind me~"
Lan WangJi: "Who is it?"
Wei WuXian: "Hey, Lan Zhan, I'm back!"
Wei WuXian: "How's it been? Without me copying books here for the past few days, did you miss me?"
Wei WuXian: "Even if you don't say it, I know you definitely missed me."
Wei WuXian: "Otherwise why else would you be looking at me through the window earlier today?"
Lan WangJi: ! "...Pathetic."
Wei WuXian: "Just look at you, rising to the bait after only two sentences. You're too easy to catch, you really can't maintain your composure that well huh?"
Lan WangJi: "Leave."
Wei WuXian: "Not leaving~ Will you throw me off the windowsill?"
Lan WangJi: ! Wei WuXian: "Ah don't don't don't! I'm here to send an apology gift."
Lan WangJi: "Do not want it."
Wei WuXian: "Are you sure you don't want it?"
(Wei WuXian fishes two rabbits out from behind his back)
Wei WuXian: "Your guys' area is actually quite strange. There aren't any pheasants, but there are lots of wild rabbits."
Wei WuXian: "They aren't even scared of people. What do you think? These two rabbits aren't too bad, right? Do you want them?"
Wei WuXian: "Fine. If you don't want them, then I'll give them to other people. We don't have much flavor in our food these days anyway."
Lan WangJi: ! "Stop."
Wei WuXian: "I didn't go anywhere."
Lan WangJi: "Who are you giving them to?"
Wei WuXian: "I'm gonna give them to whoever's good at roasting rabbit meat."
Lan WangJi: "Killing livestock is forbidden within the Cloud Recesses. That is the third rule on the Wall of Rules."
Wei WuXian: "Fine then. I'll go down the mountain, kill it outside, and then bring it back to roast it. You don't want them anyway, so why do you care so much?"
Lan WangJi: "The rabbits. Give them to me."
Wei WuXian: "Now you want it? Look at you—you're always like this. Here."
Wei WuXian: "Ah! The rabbits escaped!"
Wei WuXian: "Eh? Lan Zhan."
Wei WuXian: "Look at them, one on top of the other, and even shaking back and forth. Do you think they're, you know..."
Lan WangJi: "Both of these are male!"
Wei WuXian: "Male? Fine, if they're male they're male."
Wei WuXian: "I wasn't even finished talking just now, why were you so stern? What were you thinking of?"
Wei WuXian: "Now that I think about it, I was the one who caught these rabbits, and I didn't even notice whether they're male or female."
Wei WuXian: " But you even looked at their--"
Lan WangJi: "You should go down!" (throws Wei WuXian off the windowsill)
Students: "Finally, class is over!" "Do you want to go swimming in a bit?" "What do you want to do?" "I'm really tired, I don't want to go..." "Hurry."
Other student: "Hey, old man Lan's lecture today about the Lan sect's past was really quite interesting. That was rare."
Wei WuXian: "So the founder of the Lan clan was a monk--no wonder!"
Wei WuXian: "He ventured into the mortal world to meet one person. When she went, he went as well, leaving nothing behind on this Earth. "
Wei WuXian: "But how could a person like this founder produce such unromantic descendants?"
Other student: "That's right. No one would have expected the Lan clan, famous for being orthodox, to have this kind of founder."
Other student: "Ah, imagine becoming cultivation partners with your fated person... that must be the happiest life on this earth."
Other student: "Heh, just listening to your tone of voice, you're not thinking about finding a cultivation partner, are you?
Other student: "Hey, on the topic of finding cultivation partners, have you guys heard of the beauty from the Dongting Lin sect? She is truly someone without equal!" [??? can't hear clearly]
Other student: (sigh) "I don't know who would be blessed enough to become cultivation partners with her."
Other student: "For someone without equal, I say you'd still have to count the beauty from the Guijia Yang clan."
Other student: "Oh, and the beauty from the Nanhu Liu clan!"
Other student: "Hey, Brother ZiXuan, what about you? Which girl do you think is the most beautiful?"
Other student: (pats him as a warning) "Don't ask Brother ZiXuan about this. He's already got a fiancee, so he'll definitely answer with his fiancee."
Other disciple: "Eh, for real? What beauty from what sect? She must be brilliantly exquisite to match with Brother ZiXuan!"
Jin ZiXuan: "Forget it."
(Wei WuXian slams the table) Wei WuXian: "Jin ZiXuan, what do you mean, 'forget it'?"
Jin ZiXuan: "Forget. It. Is this phrase hard for you to understand?"
Wei WuXian: "Heh, the phrase isn't hard to understand. Instead, it's very hard to understand how on Earth you are unsatisfied with my sworn sister."
Other student: (whispering) "Oi, what's going on? Brother Wei is normally really easy to talk to."
Other student: (whispering back) "Brother ZiXuan's fiancee is called Jiang YanLi. She's Wei WuXian's sworn sister, and Jiang Cheng's birth sister."
Jin ZiXuan: "Wei WuXian, why don't you ask how on Earth I can be satisfied with her?" Other student: (whispering back) "Brother ZiXuan's fiancee is called Jiang YanLi. She's Wei WuXian's sworn sister, and Jiang Cheng's birth sister."
Jin ZiXuan: "In talent or appearance, she has nothing that stands out. I am the Jin clan's only son, she--" (Other student: "Oh...No wonder.")
(Wei WuXian punches Jin ZiXuan) Wei WuXian: "You sure think you're pretty satisfying, don't you? Where did you get the guts to be all choosy?"
Jin ZiXuan: "If she's unsatisfied, then tell her to dissolve this engagement! In conclusion, I don't cherish your sworn sister."
Jin ZiXuan: "If you cherish her, ask her father for her hand! Doesn't he treat you better than his own son?"
Jiang Cheng: "JIN ZIXUAN!!" (Jiang Cheng moves to hit Jin ZiXuan too, but Wei WuXian pushes Jiang Cheng out of the way and punches Jin ZiXuan again)
(Wei WuXian and Jin ZiXuan start fighting for real. Other students: "Ah, what are you guys doing?" "Stop fighting!" "Brother Wei!" "Brother ZiXuan!")
