Qixing Choice
Walk around Li Yue
Teleport to the southern part of Li Yue's Harbor. A conversation will begin with the secretary of the Moonsea Pavilion, Hui Xin. The girl will share her feelings about her father's health problems and his departure from the post of the Support of Heaven. She thinks Uncle Tian would be happy to see Traveler and Paimon. Therefore, he invites him to pay a visit to the Yansheng tea house.
Go to the northwest and at the second building, climb the stairs to the second floor. Uncle Tian will tell you that he has several candidates who could take his place, but their health does not allow for an exam. For this reason, he asked Ye Lan to conduct the exam, who later joined the conversation and invited the Traveler to come with her.
Take an exam
Travel to the Moonsea Pavilion. Ye Lan will introduce the assistants to the examination procedure and suggest that they familiarize themselves with the plans of the participants and make a first impression. Examine the materials at the table and return to Ye Lan to begin your hearing.
Report the results to Uncle Tian
After completing the conversation with the participants and summing up the results, Ye Lan offers to tell uncle Tanya about the results of the test. Go to the second floor of the tea house. After the Support of Heaven tells that he personally knows the participants and asks them to make a decision independent of external factors, the heroes will say goodbye.
Know by sight
Explore the north pier
Ye Lan will take the Traveler aside and decide to investigate a bit. Her subordinates will go to learn more about the first two candidates, and the guys will take care of the most outstanding - Zhi Yi themselves. First of all, you need to talk with the owner of the Thousand Little Things shop, Bo Lai. Go to the northern pier.
The merchant will begin to talk about the noble deeds of Zhi Yi and even want to take him to work. At this time, Ye Lan will notice how the object of their study is talking to Lin Lang. The task falls on the traveler: to quietly eavesdrop on their conversation.
Carefully follow the heroes, trying not to get too close, you should not go too far either, as they may get lost, and the test will start again. If Zhi Yi notices the Traveler, it is enough to hide behind any fence before the eye icon above his head is completely circled in red.
Despite not hearing anything illegal, Ye Lan decides to go to where Zhi Yi usually fishes and continue investigating. It seems that Paimon thinks that such a zeal for looking for flaws is caused by Ye Lan's desire to take over as the Support of Heaven herself.
Explore the south pier
Go to the southern pier and talk to Old Sun. As it turns out, the candidate is an unimportant fisherman. Find more footprints by talking to other people at the pier.
The first one is located a little to the north (the location area is circled on the mini-map). Old Gao will say that the young man "does not have a pestilence for his soul." The second one is a little to the west. Little Dugu Shuo will give some more strange snags, which more and more convince Ye Lan that Zhi Yi is helping someone and wants to infiltrate Qixing in this way.
Explore the forge of Montenegro
It's good that the girl already has a plan. Return to the tea house and study the project to find those who will benefit from it. During the reading, Ye Lan's assistants will come to the company with good news about the two members. Then they will finish what they started and find new clues pointing to the forge of Montenegro.
To get to the location, teleport to the Jade Palace and glide south. To the left of the Iron Shoulder worker are work notes. Retrieve them and speak to Iron Shoulder to learn more about the skillful beginners from the notebook.
According to the worker, recruits often go out for drinks with one company and do not take anyone with them. Follow the tracks.
After reaching the ruined hut, get closer and examine the strange footprints. The floral scent of the ink from the burnt letter points to Fatui's involvement.
Tricky solution
Announce the results
To defeat the enemy, you need to properly prepare. In the in-game menu, rewind time to 9 AM and head to the Moonsea Pavilion to listen to Ye Lan's speech about the victory of one of the participants.
After the results are announced, Zhi Yi leaves the pavilion. But Ye Lan assigned a subordinate to track him down. Go to Feiyun Market Square.
Follow Zhi Yi to Feiyun Market Square
Unfortunately, the winner manages to escape. According to Shang Hua, he went to the Xinyue tent, where he changed and left. Go to the tent and talk to the waiter. Based on the suspect's purchases, he headed to an antique shop. Go there.
Zhi Yi purchased alcohol and fine glasses, but he himself cannot stand alcohol because of his drunkard father, and he certainly would not spend his last money on a celebration. So these purchases are for his patron.
Go to Qingxu Lake
Ye Lan sends his subordinates to follow the candidate's master. According to the assumptions of the girl, the employee of Fatui will begin to act at night. Set the time to 8 pm and go to the tea house. According to the latest news, the criminals are going to meet at Qingxu Lake, head there and enter the underground ruins.
