Chapter 462 Clues

After Mo Hua got the information, he returned to the cave of the four masters and apprentices.

Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi also came back and told Mo Hua the clues they had found.

Bai Zisheng went to noisy places such as the market, teahouses, and restaurants, and found out mostly about the evil deeds and scandals of the Lu family.

Bai Zixi visited some female cultivators and their wives in Nanyue City, and asked mostly about gossip and scandals of the Lu family.

Mo Hua began to summarize the information and then list the suspects.

And figured out who in the Lu family was most likely to be the traitor?

But the Lu family had many people and the clan relations were complicated, so it was difficult to investigate for the time being.

There were not only elders of the clan, but also guests from outside.

Some elders of the clan are not considered clan members, and some are from outside, so they may be related to each other...

Mo Hua felt a little dizzy and couldn't help saying:

"It's so confusing..."

Bai Zisheng nodded and said, "Family is like this. The bigger the family, the more complicated the blood, interpersonal relationships, and friendships..."

"The Lu family is still good. If it's our Bai family, it's even more complicated."

"Even during festivals, visits and gifts, there are a lot of rules."

Mo Hua was tired after listening and shook his head helplessly.

Bai Zisheng looked at the pile of Lu family relationships in front of him and asked:

"Do you have the Lu family genealogy? If you have a genealogy, you will understand it better. Otherwise, you can only guess who is related to whom, who is born to whom, and who has the same father..."

"Lu family genealogy... This kind of thing should not be available to outsiders..."

Mo Hua frowned and was stunned.

He remembered that Lu Chengyun, the head of the Lu family, seemed to have given him a special "family tree".

This is what Lu Chengyun secretly gave to Mo Hua in order to get her to marry into his family.

Mo Hua opened her storage bag and rummaged around for a long time before she found this "family tree" from a pile of array books and array diagrams.

Bai Zisheng was surprised and asked, "You really have it?"

"Yes." Mo Hua nodded, "Only part of it, but it can be sorted out."

Mo Hua opened the family tree.

The three of them leaned in and looked at it together.

As they looked, Bai Zixi realized something was wrong. She looked up at Mo Hua and asked with a puzzled look:

"Why are there only girls in this family tree?"

Bai Zisheng also nodded, "They all look pretty good..."

Mo Hua blushed slightly, "Lu Chengyun gave it to me, I don't know."

Bai Zixi's eyes were a little suspicious, "Really don't know?"

"Yeah." Mo Hua nodded frequently.

Bai Zixi's eyes wandered over Mo Hua's face, and seeing that Mo Hua was looking at him with a frank look, he nodded slightly and stopped asking questions.

Mo Hua heaved a sigh of relief for some reason.

Then the three of them began to sort out the relationships among the people in the Lu family.

This genealogy was relatively simple, and only introduced the blood relationship and closeness of the direct line, collateral branch, and other women related to the Lu family.

Of course, there was also a portrait of the woman.

At the same time, it also briefly introduced the spiritual roots and talents.

These should all be considered family secrets.

If it weren't for Mo Hua's outstanding talent in formation, he would have been a first-class formation master at a young age.

Lu Chengyun would not have given him this genealogy.

This genealogy was not complete, and only had part of the Lu family's clan relationship.

But this part was enough for Mo Hua and the other two to unravel the mystery and simply sort out the relationship between the cultivators in the Lu family.

Mo Hua finally selected five names from it:

Lu Huaiyi, Lu Huaisheng, Lu Huaide, Pei Cai, and Jiang Long.

The three surnamed Lu were all married into the family.

And they all knew formations to a certain extent.

They are also highly regarded in the Lu family, with considerable power, and they have all been in charge of mines. Even now, they occasionally go to the mines to take charge.

Pei Cai and Jiang Long are both from other families.

One is a tribute, and the other is a guest official.

They both have ordinary status in the Lu family.

One married a Lu family girl, but it was not considered a marriage.

The other taught formations in the Lu family.

These five people all look like traitors of the Xiaolingyin Sect.

Mo Hua said, "Let's find out about these five people first."

Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi both nodded.

After that, the three of them either followed, tracked, or inquired, but after a month of investigation, there was still no result.

Although Lu Huaiyi, Lu Huaisheng, and Lu Huaide were all married into the family, their family backgrounds before marriage were clear and could be found out.

They did not change much before and after.

They were just submissive before marriage, but arrogant and domineering after marriage.

This change is in line with human nature and is not abnormal.

Pei Cai and Jiang Long.

One lives a peaceful life of cultivation, only caring about himself and not asking about external affairs.

The other teaches formations during the day and goes to Jinhua Street to have fun at night. He is corrupted by the Lu family's decadent life and indulges in it voluntarily.

None of these people seem to be scheming people.

It looked like there was nothing fishy, ​​nor any bloody or strange clues.

Mo Hua was a little confused, "Could it be that I guessed wrong?"

There was no progress in the next few days.

Until this day, Elder Su sent another invitation to Mo Hua for tea.

Mo Hua thought about it, and agreed with a slight move in his heart.

Elder Su was on good terms with the Lu family, and also had a deep friendship with Lu Chengyun.

Before finding out who was the traitor in the Lu family, it would be better to have less contact.

But now there was no progress, Mo Hua thought, why not go and have tea with Elder Su to see if there would be any clues.

Mo Hua had an inexplicable intuition.

He felt that Elder Su was vaguely hiding some key information.

Mo Hua frowned.

Since learning the divine consciousness derivation and using the derivation to deduce the formation, a trace of foreshadowing would occasionally emerge in his heart.

There would also be some indescribable intuition in his heart.

This intuition was very clear.

But when I investigated it carefully, I didn't have any clues...

It was very similar to the feeling when Mo Hua realized the Dao of the formation.

It was the kind of feeling that was vaguely touched, but separated by mountains and rivers, hazy and incomprehensible.

Mo Hua remembered that Mr. Zhuang said that everything in the world is in accordance with the Dao.

Then the formation is in accordance with the Dao, everything is in accordance with the Dao, and the cultivator is in accordance with the Dao. Are the actions and deeds of the cultivator also in accordance with the Dao?

If so, then can the realization of the Heavenly Dao predict the future to a certain extent and avoid disasters?

Mo Hua felt that Mr. Zhuang occasionally had some unfathomable behavior.

It seemed to be a kind of foreknowledge of the secrets of heaven.

But how can such a thing be done?

Keep learning the formation, keep understanding the formation theory, keep using calculations, and see through the Dao?

See through things, predict good and bad, seek benefits and avoid harm...

If I really learn it, will I become a "little charlatan"?

Mo Hua kept thinking in his heart.

Until he arrived at the Su Mansion, sat down in the pavilion, and drank Elder Su's good tea, he was still a little absent-minded, his mind was not focused.

Elder Su asked carefully: "Young Master, are you worried?"

Mo Hua came back to his senses and nodded, "A little bit, I'm thinking about something."

Elder Su nodded and praised:

"Whether walking, sitting or lying down, eating or drinking tea, you never forget to think hard and comprehend the formation... No wonder you have such a deep attainment in formation at such a young age, it's really admirable..."

Mo Hua felt that Elder Su's praise was a bit awkward.

And it was not right.

But he was praising himself after all, and Mo Hua couldn't say it clearly.

And even if the praise was wrong, he was still very happy to be praised.

Mo Hua also praised back:

"Elder Su's formation is also very good! And..."

Mo Hua thought of a word and said: "... He knows life very well."

Mo Hua still remembered that he lingered in brothels and took charge of Baihua Tower...

Elder Su didn't know what Mo Hua was thinking. He stroked his beard and was very happy. He kept saying:

"Drink tea, drink tea! This tea is a treasure I have kept for a long time. I won't take it out for ordinary guests..."

The tea is really good.

The two drank for a while, and when the tea was finished, they still felt unsatisfied.

Elder Su asked his disciple to make another pot.

The disciple who made tea was the apprentice who had always been with Elder Su. He had a handsome face and was quite gentle and handsome, but he still had a little stubbornness of a teenager.

Mo Hua had come here many times and was very familiar with him.

And this time, Mo Hua felt that he was even more familiar.

After the disciple made the tea, Elder Su nodded and ordered:

"Shuisheng, you go down."

Shuisheng?

Mo Hua was stunned.

He stared at the disciple again.

This disciple's talent in formations was average, and he was not too respectful to Elder Su. Sometimes he was also clumsy. Why did Elder Su always keep him by his side?

Mo Hua looked at him again.

Only then did he realize that the disciple and Elder Su looked somewhat similar, and their spiritual energy seemed to have some origins.

Shuisheng...

When Shuisheng walked away, Mo Hua was still staring at his back.

Elder Su saw Mo Hua staring at his disciple, his eyes were getting brighter and brighter, and he felt a little scared.

"Young sir, what are you looking at?"

"I'm looking at your little disciple."

Elder Su smiled awkwardly:

"What's so good about a little disciple..."

Mo Hua glanced at Elder Su silently, and suddenly asked in a low voice:

"This little disciple, can't he be your illegitimate child..."

Elder Su choked on a mouthful of tea, coughed a few times, hurriedly covered it up, and smiled humbly: "Young sir, you're kidding."

Mo Hua whispered:

"Narcissus..."

Elder Su's hands trembled, and he dropped the cup, looking at Mo Hua in disbelief:

"You...how did you know?"

Mo Hua's eyes narrowed slightly like a little fox, and he thought to himself that it was indeed so.
