I rely on tricks to cultivate my longevity

Shi Xueqian replied casually: "I don't know, I never sent anyone to follow your junior sister, how could I know where she went."

"Oh, is that so?" Yan You showed a smile that was not a smile, and wandered around Shi Xueqian's room seemingly aimlessly.

"Why in Brother Shi's room, did I smell some vague fragrance of makeup?" When he said this, Yan You's brows suddenly showed some sternness.

"Brother Shi has not yet established a family background. Naturally, maidservants will not be allowed to come and go in this important military place, but I don't know where this powdery air comes from?"

Yan You brought up a dark but extremely elegant smile, opened his nose and sniffed, then walked straight to the cabinet, and put his hand in front of the cabinet.

"Brother Shi shouldn't be hiding in the golden house in this important military place, right?" Yan You's dark smile gradually turned to joking.

Shi Xueqian's complexion turned maroon, and he seemed extremely angry, and said: "Enough! What do you want to do?"

Yan You shook his head with a smile, pulled open the cabinet abruptly, and spit out the word "present" in a leisurely manner.

However, there was nothing in the cabinet.

Yan You's complexion changed suddenly, he poked his head into the cabinet and sniffed it, showing an expression of disbelief, then stretched out his hand to touch the neatly folded soap robe - it was still warm.

He immediately showed a very confused expression, but in an instant he regained that gentle smile, and said, "It seems that I guessed wrong."

"Since that's the case, then go find my junior sister as soon as possible. She is a girl and walks alone, so she should not encounter any danger."

While speaking, he walked to Shi Xueqian's side again, took out a handkerchief, wiped the cold sweat protruding from his forehead, and said, "Look at you, why are you still sweating?"

He deliberately pressed Shi Xueqian's shoulder again, and said: "Heal your wound well, and I will report your illness for you tomorrow morning."

He flicked down his skirt, tucked the handkerchief into his sleeve, and left quickly.

At this moment, Lin Xixue was sitting in the gazebo before, eating pastries and drinking tea, pretending that nothing happened.

If you want to ask her why she suddenly returned to Lixin Academy, it is naturally because, seeing that her deeds are about to be revealed, she used her magical powers to return directly to Lixin Academy from the station of Yun Chuiwei.

As for why he wanted to return to Lixin Academy, there were actually many considerations.

At the moment, her use of supernatural powers is still very superficial. Before entering and exiting the so-called realm, she needs to refine the scene to a fairly high level in her mind, so that she can succeed.

And in Jingyun City, the place Lin Xixue is most familiar with is none other than Lixin Academy, Lu Er's study.

She came out of the study room, walked around a long way to the main entrance, and pretended that she had just come back, so she was led to the gazebo where she met Yan You before.

Now that this banquet has already been talked about, I might as well respond to all changes without changing, and use my tactics, pretending to be ignorant, and see what kind of strategy this banquet will come up with next.

Right now, his timely appearance in this Lixin Academy can just be his alibi.

However, she also understood in her heart that the prerequisite for her success in pretending to be a fool was that Lu Er had never told this banquet that she possessed supernatural powers.

Only in this way can his alibi be established.

Of course, even if my plan failed, and I couldn't hide it from Yan You, I might not really be afraid of Yan You in the face-to-face confrontation.

After all, I know this mantra, but I don't know all the trump cards in my hand.

The only thing that puzzled her was that Yan You stayed in the gazebo all the time, how did he coordinate with the other ghosts, cooperate with his actions, and inject the blood shadow into Shi Xueqian's body?
She looked at the guqin placed on the stone table in the gazebo, and her mind moved slightly. Could it be that the signal was transmitted through the sound of the piano during this banquet?

She was startled, she never expected that Yanyou would come up with such a method of transmitting secret signals, which was similar to that of pulling a thread.

However, even if she guessed it, Yan You probably passed the message face-to-face by playing the piano, but she didn't have the corresponding code book, so she couldn't understand the meaning of each string.

The transmission range of this zither sound is not large, it is not like pulling a machine wire, it can ignore the space and transmit information over a long distance, which shows that.
Within the range covered by the sound of the piano, there must be someone who will support him and assist him in further conveying the information. As long as he catches this person, he can get this codebook!
Thinking of this, Lin Xixue couldn't help being secretly happy, and quietly waited for the banquet to return.

Of course, during the waiting period, she had already bathed and changed her clothes in advance, and even changed into different sizes of makeup.

After all, Yanyou's nose is very sensitive, if she finds out that his body smells the same as that in Shi Xueqian's room, I'm afraid he will become suspicious again.

Not long after, Yan You returned as scheduled, Lin Xixue quickly stood up and saluted, "Mr. Yan!"

When Yan You saw her, he also pretended to be alright, cupped his hands and said, "Miss went to the station of Yun Chuiwei and hasn't returned for a long time, which really worries me."

"That's why I went to the station to inquire about the girl's whereabouts. I didn't expect that the girl had already returned. It was a mistake, and it caused an oolong."

"It's so! After I left Yunchuiwei's station, I went to Fangshi for a casual stroll. I bought some cosmetics along the way, which made my husband miss me."

"I just said why the scent of the powder on the girl's body has changed. It's fine if there's nothing to do. But when it comes to this powder, I understand it very well. I don't know which brand the girl went to?"

Lin Xixue's heart trembled, knowing that Yanyou had already had doubts about her whereabouts, so she asked which rouge shop it was, so that she could go to that rouge shop for verification later.

So she didn't continue the conversation, but took the initiative to lead the topic: "Oh? I didn't expect that Mr. Yan also has a lot of research on this rouge and gouache?"

Yan You's eyebrows were fixed, but then he returned to normal, and said with a smile: "Miss, do you know the Qiongtai Book House in the north of the city?"

Lin Xixue was puzzled, why the banquet would take the initiative to mention Qiongtai Shuyu, but she still said calmly: "Although I have never been to this romantic place, I have heard of it a lot. Could it be that Mister is also a regular visitor among them?"

"Hehe, I made the girl laugh. I am indeed a frequent visitor of this Shuyu, and many disciples of Confucianism are also frequent visitors here." Yanyou doesn't seem to shy away from this.

"I still think that most of the Confucian disciples are strict in etiquette and law. I didn't expect so many disciples to come and go to this land of love and moon?"

"Young lady doesn't know. Although this book house is a place of romance, it is not like the usual fireworks and willow alley. There are many strange women among them. They are all skilled in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. It is by no means comparable to those vulgar ones. If the girl is interested, May I take you to see it some other day?"

Lin Xixue thought to herself, this book house is inextricably linked with the ghosts in the Confucianism sect, and it may be quite risky to enter rashly at this moment.

After a little weighing, she shied away and said: "As a woman, I'm afraid it's inappropriate to go to such a romantic place."
