Chapter 1.31 Postscript (Extra)

After speaking, Uncle Two took out a handkerchief from his pocket. When he unfolded it, I saw that it held the key found in Biao Gong’s hands.

“Hey, wasn’t that just to trick Cao Er Daozi into thinking we were going to look at the genealogical record? Where did this key come from?”

“This was indeed found on Biao Gong’s body. I just took advantage of the situation,” Uncle Two said. “But this isn’t the key to the box where the genealogical record is kept. I tried it but it didn’t work.”

“How’s that possible?” I asked him. “This is the key I saw.”

Uncle Two shook his head and said, “No, this key may be to another similar box. And—” he lifted the key and I saw the character “Wu” on it, “Biao Gong hid this key before he died. What do you think we should do?”

“Don’t think about it,” I said. “Let’s talk about it next year.”

“That’s right,” Uncle Two put the key back in his pocket, “let’s celebrate the New Year first.” Then he gave me a pat, “Drive slow and be safe.”

Hooray! This special is officially done!! So you guys will prolly hate this but…. I’m taking a week or 2 off to rally/get my mind right lol. In between translating this special, I copied all of Vol 9 from the daomu biji website into a word doc. It’s ~2600 pages and has 4 parts. It’s basically 4 books of about 650ish pages each (that’s more than everything I’ve translated so far in these past 2 months). You guys stay fabulous!

Update: Ok, so if you couldn’t tell, trying to figure out the order of this series has me feeling like a chicken running around with its head cut off lol. So the “Vol 9” we thought was a continuation is actually a fanfic written by Evil Spirit With a Knife of how they wanted the next bit of the series to go or whatever. SO. I am BACK to focusing on the Tibetan Prequel. For ease of record-keeping on Novel Updates, I’ll just be calling it Vol 9 and Sand Sea will be Vol 10 whenever I get to it. I’m updating my reading order chart on the homepage frequently (since I have no idea what I’m doing) so just bear with me on this. If you ever notice anything wrong, or think I’m about to translate something out of order, please let me know. I really do appreciate all the help, as I don’t want others to feel as confused as I am.
