It has been raining heavily since he took a wounded Wei Ying from Jin Lanling. His friend had already lost a lot of blood and every passing second made him paler and tho Lan Zhan appeared his usual calm self on the out side same could not be said about how he was feeling on the inside.

Lan Zhan thought of going to Gusu but he changed his mind almost immediately since he did not know if his brother would allow Wei Ying there. Did his brother suspect Wei Ying too? He was not sure. Also his involvement with Meng Yao only meant that he would have to choose between his sworn brother and Lan Wangji. Lan Zhan did not want to put his brother in an uncomfortable situation.

With these things in mind Lan Zhan decided to go to Yunmeng . He hated Jiang Cheng's guts but there was no other place but Yunmeng that would avoid suspission. After arriving  at the outskirts of Yunmeng the first thing Lan Zhan did was to put Wei Ying down gently under a tree to shelter him from the rain. The he proceeded to remove his head band which could give away his identity.  He folded it neatly and put it on a patch of grass. Luckily the rain was letting up and he could see the sun peeking through the gaps in clouds. He looked at Wei Ying, his expression darkened. 'How the hell do I always fail to protect him? He is just one Man, how useless must I be to not even be able to protect just one man'.....'my man', his heart supplied unnecessarily. 

He pushed the wayward thought out of his mind. It was then that he realised that he was so cought up in getting them to safety that the had totally not given a thought to the stab the other had received. He looked around and saw a small dwelling some distance away. He decided that for now he has to somehow convince the owners to take them in. But knowing that Wei Ying had grown up there as was quite the talk of the town there was a chance that his friend would be recognised. 

'I have no other option' he thought and started to remove his outer cloths. "Lan Zhan...where are we? and what are you doing?" came Wei Ying's voice and Lan Zhan stopped and looked at him.

"Ah, you are awake. We are in the out skirts of  Yunmeng . I can see that there is a dwelling right head, we will try to find shelter there, but before we approach them.." he was cut off.

"You are afraid that they will recognise me and refuse us or worse inform my brother". Lan Zhan nodded.

Wei Ying smirked , "Ok then, I give to permission to do what you want with my body" he opened his arms ,"Take me Lan Zhan, I am yours". Lan Zhan just stood there for a few seconds staring at the other man expressionlessly and then said "Shameless"...'he wants to kill me...that must me why he keeps spewing nonsense like this without meaning it'. 

"Lan Zhan... you are no fun", he says puts his arms at his sides once again. Lan Zhan removes his outer clothing and assists his friend into them.

"Can you stand or should I carry you?" he asks his friend. "I am a man Lan Zhan. I don't need to be carri.... Fuck .Did you carry me from Lanling to here? How? Fuck . Did anyone see? I hope no one saw. What how did you carry me? No don't answer that....Whats done is done. Just support me ok. Thanks." Wei Ying says. 'Well fuck , this hurts worse than being stabbed'

As Lan Zhan helps Wei Ying to stand up a sharp pain shoots through his body and his legs give way and he falls into his best friends chest. Lan Zhan's face darkens and tips of his ears turn red. 'Fuck.Fuck.Fuck. He hates physical contact...he is going to just throw me here under this tree and leave' Wei Ying thinks. "Sorry Lan Zhan. I didn't mean to"

By now Lan Zhan has had enough to Wei Ying's stupidity. "Shut up" , he says as he picks up his friend in his arms and starts walking towards the dwelling.
