Chapter 132: Inner History

"According to the elders of the Chen family, when the great-grandfather was thirty, the grandfather left home. Twenty-eight years later, when he returned, the great-grandfather had already passed away... If calculated this way, the grandfather became a Foundation Establishment in twenty-eight years... Truly excellent talent. Even the uncle in the sect spent thirty years. The grandfather was a loose cultivator, and he could be so fast."

Li Jingtian wrote down the time on the paper, frowned, and felt something was wrong, thinking to herself:

"If so, why did father say that he only started practicing at fourteen? If calculated this way, wouldn't it be a few months to become Xuanjing... It should be that I remembered it wrong."

Facing the cloth in front of her, Li Jingtian felt that the history of decades ago was hiding from her. It hadn't been long, but most of the details had been wiped clean. The grandfather Li Mutian didn't go down the mountain for decades before he died, leaving her with nothing to write.

"How strange..."

Li Jingtian lowered her head slightly, but heard a light knock on the door, and hurriedly turned the cloth in front of her upside down with a wooden box to cover it, and then said lightly:

"Who?!"

"It's me."

Li Tongya shook his sleeves and stepped into the courtyard. The misty night rain couldn't touch him at all. He stood in front of the house with his hands behind his back, looking dry and refreshed, with a bit of sadness between his brows.

"Ah, Second Uncle, please come in!"

Li Jingtian was startled, hurriedly stood up to welcome him. Li Tongya waved his hand, and a gentle force pushed her back. He entered the house, sat by the case, picked up the wooden slip recorded on the side, read it, and nodded:

"Well done."

Li Jingtian listened respectfully with her eyebrows lowered, and saw Li Tongya say in a low voice:

"I came to you this time for an important matter."

"Clan history often involves confidential matters. I want to divide it into two volumes, one called Inner History, hidden in the ancestral hall, so that ordinary disciples cannot see it, and one called Clan History, which can be recorded according to ordinary records."

"I say, you record."

Li Jingtian nodded obediently, picked up the pen, and saw Li Tongya narrating quietly. One recited, one wrote.

As time passed, Li Jingtian's expression changed frequently, and her heart was greatly shocked. Although she didn't understand the vocabulary of receiving Lu and initiation, she was shocked by the conspiracies of several Zifu cultivators revealed vaguely, and finally heard Li Tongya say:

"... Chi studied hard and never stopped, finally achieved Dao foundation, miraculous, condensed sword intent called 'Moon-Que', defeated Chi Jiuyun, shocked the sects, Qingchi Zifu saw it and said: 'It is okay', then sent to the Southern Border big dragon, refined into a pill, and took it with the demon dragon."

Li Tongya restored the process of the matter according to his own inference, which was almost consistent with the truth of the facts, but Li Jingtian's pen tip softened, she raised her head blankly, her expression was shocked and terrified, muttering:

"Refined into a pill?! Uncle... This... This!"

Li Tongya looked at her with his mouth closed. After she wiped her tears and collected her emotions, she said in a low voice after a long while:

"The matter is like this. You see how to write the clan history according to the Inner History. You must cover up the unreasonable parts, not expose the details in the Inner History, such as receiving Lu and initiation, and the speed of cultivation should be adjusted as reasonably as possible."

"Write carefully, check well, don't leave flaws, and Chi'er's matter should also be written as going deep into the Southern Border, don't let people be suspicious."

"Yes!"

Li Jingtian replied astringently, her heart was full of desolation. Li Tongya then stood up and ordered:

"Write a copy and send it to me first. Don't go out and walk around these days. Don't tell others about Chi'er's matter."

So he went out of the courtyard and rose into the air on the wind. Li Jingtian waited respectfully for a while. Only the whistling wind remained in the courtyard. Only then did she look up at the dark clouds in the sky, wiped the corners of her eyes, and returned to the courtyard.

————

Lu Sisi returned to Huaqian Mountain, but saw the foot of the mountain was full of red and festive, the banquet was set at the entrance of the village, and bursts of festive music came to his ears. The children and grandchildren of him and his brothers lined up in long lines, eating and drinking wantonly at the banquet.

Lu Sisi landed in the crowd, and the music on the field suddenly stopped. Everyone looked up at him, and all lowered their heads in disappointment. Lu Yuanlu glanced at him, kicked the servant at his feet, and said loudly:

"Old ancestor, you came back just in time. Why don't you drink a few cups with us?"

Lu Sisi saw his disrespectful appearance but didn't get angry, just didn't say a word, and felt desolate in his heart, secretly mourning:

"This child was born impulsive and arrogant. I don't have many years to live. The family will have to rely on this child in the future. If I brush his face at this time, he will inevitably hold a grudge. After I die, I am afraid I will be liquidated by him, which will be very ugly. At this time, I must follow him."

So he forced a smile, squeezed a smile on his old face, and said in a low voice:

"Drinking is good, drinking is good!"

Lu Yuanlu saw his appearance and laughed heartily. The music at the banquet played happily. Lu Sisi fell into his seat, looked at the crowd laughing and talking, his heart was empty and painful, and he gritted his teeth and thought:

Waving away the people who were squeezing over with wine glasses, Lu Sisi raised his head and stared at the sky for a while, muttering:

"Who is this?"

The music drifted for a while, and three streams of light flew over from the sky and stopped on Huaqian Mountain. Everyone looked up blankly, and heard a vast and cold voice coming down.

"Lu Sisi, roll out and answer!"

Lu Sisi woke up suddenly, rose into the air on the wind, and looked at the three people in the sky. He saw a young man in brocade clothes in the middle, closing his eyes and not speaking, and two figures, one tall and one fat, standing on both sides behind him, both staring at him.

"So it is Young Master Yu's arrival! The old man failed to welcome you! Failed to welcome you!"

"You are that Lu Sisi!"

Lu Sisi was shocked in his heart. He hurriedly put on a flattering smile, bent his body, and invited the three to land on the mountain. The young master Yu in the middle glanced at him with disgust, and said slowly:

"I... I... sigh, Sisi admires the style of the Foundation Establishment family very much. If the Yu family has any instructions, Sisi... I."

Lu Sisi was terrified, hurriedly flattered, but was interrupted by the young master Yu waving his hand. He rolled his eyes at him, shook his head impatiently, and said lightly:

"From now on, the Yu family has the final say on Moon Lake! I have been to all the families around Moon Lake, and they all respect my Yu family as the head. Does the Lu family have any thoughts?"

"I wouldn't dare! I wouldn't dare! The Lu family also respects the Yu family as the head and dare not have two hearts."

Lu Sisi smiled flatteringly for a while and flattered to the sky. The expression on the young master Yu's face finally loosened a bit, revealing a bit of pride. The two people behind him stopped staring at him, but sneered silently.

"Good!"

The young master Yu laughed heartily, changed the topic, and said coldly:

"Since the Lu family is so sensible, this tribute is naturally indispensable. I know that your Lu family still has some face on Moon Lake Peak, so I won't move you. How much tribute your Lu family pays to the Qingchi Sect every five years, just pay a copy to my Yu family according to the same share."

Pausing, the young master Yu lowered his head, squinted at the pale Lu Sisi, and smiled:

"No problem, right!" ===== CHAPTER 133 =====
