Ding Yi is very clear about how proud Lu Yuan is. This prodigy in the puppet world can be described as a man of no means. As the representative of the new generation in Iron Cast City, he is an extremely cold existence. This guy has a high level of understanding and thinking.

Extremely agile, he can not only keep up with Ding Yi's ideas, but also draw inferences from one instance. Although he is a bit extreme, he is extremely enthusiastic. Especially when he sees the right person, he is a friend who is willing to go to all the troubles for his friends. Lu Yuan can

Ding Yi was so surprised to lower his body and do things here.

It was really weird to meet Lu Yuan here. When he left Xuanzang Academy, Ding Yi was worried that he might miss Lu Yuan if he went to the competition. He never thought that he would meet him here. This guy did not listen to the three great masters.

He was ordered to send the person to Jiyun City and return immediately, but stayed there all the time. Ding Yi was also worried about him. If they met here by chance, how could he let him go so easily.

Yang Qi had met Lu Yuan, and he was deeply impressed by this young man. It was difficult for people to ignore such a talented person. He quickly introduced him to Director An, Shi Yao, and Zeng Mao.

Lu Yuan did not expect to meet Ding Yi here, and he was very happy.

"Everyone, eat first. I'll come over when I'm done." Lu Yuan apologized to everyone and left in a hurry.

Director An asked some more about Lu Yuan and learned that Lu Yuan was the genius of Iron Cast City. He was also shocked by Ding Yi's wide circle of friends. However, Lu Yuan was not from the seven southeastern provinces after all, so he didn't take it to heart.

superior.

He and Shi Yao shared the scene of Chen Shi'an from Zhongshan Academy, leaving the field in despair. He then turned the focus back to Xuanzang Academy and the training of Ding Yi.

"Sister Shi, let me tell you, your Xuanzang Academy still doesn't pay enough attention to Xiao Yi. How can you ignore such a peerless genius? Xuanzang Academy does not have teachers in puppetry. You can apply to the Ministry of Education. Go back.

From now on, you should submit your application as soon as possible, and leave all the subsequent work to me. This child Ding Yi is a piece of jade, and you are wasting the treasure of heaven. All the various cultivation resources this child needs, you

You can apply for special channels. If such talent and beauty are delayed, we will all be sinners in the cultivation world of the seven southeastern provinces! What is the most precious thing in this century? Talent! The Ministry of Education will never allow geniuses like Ding Yi

The young man was delayed!" Director An was eloquent and delivered a long speech.

Shi Yao and the others are really happy for Ding Yi. Having Director An help in the middle will be of great benefit to both Ding Yi's future development and the improvement of Xuanzang Academy.

"Director An, did you really see Chen Shi'an leave in despair?" Shi Yao was very interested in this topic. Director An then vividly observed Chen Shi'an's affairs at close range, and talked to Shi Yao

Narrated it once.

Everyone at Xuanzang College was very happy when they heard this. They had originally listed Zhongshan College as their imaginary enemy, which was the biggest obstacle for them to get out of the seven southeastern provinces. It was really exciting to learn that Chen Shi'an of Zhongshan College was defeated.

However, Ding Yi was not interested in any of this. He was just curious about Lu Yuan appearing here.

Haibaxian is an eight-course exquisite delicacy carefully prepared using shrimp, crab, shark's fin, scallop, soft-shell turtle, sea cucumber, fish maw and abalone through a special process. Fangcun Mountain is adjacent to the sea, and Danzhou is a thoroughfare.

Important roads, sea, land, air, and food from all over the place are all easily available here. No wonder the shabby shop has stayed here for thousands of years.

Everyone who specializes in 'esophagus' is sitting here. This is a rare gourmet journey and a feast for the taste buds. It is rare to eat such good food. Even Ding Yi, who is not very picky about food, can't help but feel his index finger grow bigger.

I couldn't help but eat more.

Luyuan served the dishes quickly, and within a short while, the table was filled with eight delicacies. Ding Yi was from a mountain city and was not very good at seafood. Shi Yao patiently taught Ding Yi how to shell, peel, and dip into the sauce to taste.

.

He thought it was his first taste of something new, but when he ate it, when these ingredients were chewed in his mouth and released on his tongue, Ding Yi actually tasted the taste of his hometown. It was the taste of his mother's cooking, which he had always suppressed.

Emotions, feelings that have been avoided, are evoked at this moment.

At this moment, the images of Ding Zhaoding, Wu Shuhui, Ding Yun, and Ding Li came to life. The memories of the mountain city came in like a tide.

He thinks that he escapes from the mundane world, and thinks that he is like the heroes in the fantasy disk, pursuing the splendor and freedom of life. In fact, the impression of home and family has never faded, but was deliberately ignored by him, just like what Gu Yue said

, what cultivators call being too supreme to forget their feelings is just bullshit. In fact, it is the distortion and suppression of true feelings, and it is simply self-deception.

Ding Yi deliberately alienated his family in order to let the truth focus on him.

On his body, he was extremely afraid of people like Wang Jiansheng and others from the Truth Society. He even thought about keeping a low profile, but fate brought him to where he is today. When this taste of longing and the taste of home bloomed on his taste buds

, Ding Yi’s vision blurred.

Every bite of food seems to be a key to the dusty past. Those bitter, sweet, absurd, or happy moments are evoked inadvertently...

All the diners were silent. At this moment, the meal seemed to be silenced. The diners were all caught up in their own past, and many of them shed tears unconsciously.

This feeling is very complicated. Everyone's dining experience is different, but everyone cherishes this delicious feast. Generally speaking, cultivators eat more food than ordinary people, maybe because they consume more energy every day.

No matter how much they absorb the essence of the sun and moon or take the energy into their bodies, the main way they obtain energy is through eating.

Eight dishes: exquisite white shrimps, braised jumping fish, blue crab and bean noodles, home-cooked fish, razor clams in tomato sauce, imperial oysters, braised abalone, and fried squid. Every plate is so delicious, and every chopstick is full of emotion.

Everyone ate very slowly and carefully, chewing every mouthful of food thoroughly and swallowing it slowly. This went beyond the scope of food. It was not just the color, flavor, and shape, but there was also a profound "Tao" in this food.

While everyone was tasting this delicious food, they were also experiencing Master Lu's 'esophagus'.

Ding Yi and the others didn't mention bringing food to the fans. Even the soup was wiped out by everyone. The eight dishes were all wiped out in one go, and the plates were all clean. No wonder there was a long queue outside this shabby shop.

Team, it is the happiest thing to be able to come in and dine inside.

Brother Hu even fell into a kind of trance during the meal. This is really a good thing!

Everyone was very satisfied with this meal, and everyone gained more or less. Ding Yi also felt that this meal made his heart towards the Tao more determined, and at the same time his soul felt a lot stronger. This trip

It’s really a worthwhile trip.

Maybe he knew what was going on here. Half an hour later, Lu Yuancai came to the dining hall with a middle-aged man. This man was dressed in silk and satin, his figure was a bit thin, and his body was clean. It was impossible to tell that he was

A god of cooking.

Ding Yi originally thought that Master Lu was a fat man with a big belly and greasy body, but he did not expect that he would be such a neat person.

Master Lu was a very nice person. When he saw Hu Guiyan entering meditation, he made a silent gesture, turned around and led everyone inside. Zeng Mao stayed behind to protect Hu Guiyan, while the others curiously followed Master Lu inside.

go.

In a half-collapsed courtyard, Master Lu stopped here with everyone. Master Lu asked everyone to wait for a moment, and then he walked into the collapsed house. After a while, he took out a

A beam that was more than ten meters long and almost half a meter thick came out.

This piece of wood weighs more than a thousand kilograms at least. Master Lu is as easy as holding a chopstick, and Ding Yi is speechless. Needless to say, Master Lu is a high-level physical practitioner.

Master Lu used his spiritual power gently, and the old wood, which had no idea how old it was, shook violently, and all the rotten and damaged parts were shaken off.

The whole piece of wood became much more "pretty". Master Lu then lowered the beam.

"It's a remote place, the conditions are simple, don't mind, please sit down, please sit down." Master Lu politely asked everyone to sit down.

Ding Yi and the others did as the Romans do and sat down one after another.

Master Lu waved his hands and said: "No need to say any more compliments. I am just a craftsman. Cooking is my profession. This is nothing to brag about. But this year, your Xuanzang Academy is really good. I am here

Over the past few decades, I have seen countless battles, large and small, but this is the most enjoyable one to watch."

Shi Yao and the others did not expect Master Lu to be so easy to talk to, and listening to what Master Lu said, Master Lu seemed to have high regard for their participating team. They were all delighted and deeply moved.

Director An said: "Lao Lu, don't say you didn't expect it. Who would know about this big dark horse of Xuanzang Academy before the game? Xiao Yi, this kid, it's not an exaggeration to say that he is a unique genius. Fortunately, it's that Qingyun

The county's education officials are blind, otherwise Zhongshan College would be the only one this year. Don't tell me, every year I see the arrogance of the men and women at Zhongshan College, which makes me angry. This year, Ding Yi finally emerged and changed the Southeast

pattern.”

Master Lu laughed loudly and said: "Actually, I have heard about Xiao Yi a long time ago. When I met Xiaolu in Wadang Mountain, Ding Yi's name was mentioned by him every day. To be honest, I am actually quite curious about Xiao Yi.

Woolen cloth."

Ding Yi hurriedly

He stood up and said: "Master Lu's craftsmanship is superb. That is the true style of everyone. This boy's strength is simply not as good as the master. The master is too praised."

Master Lu nodded with satisfaction.

Lu Yuan stood up and said, "Everyone, Xiao Yi and I would like to excuse you for a moment." After saying that, he tilted his head to Ding Yi, ignored the others, and walked straight to the broken house next to him. Shi Yao motioned for Yun Xiang to follow him.

Yang Qi stopped it.

Lu Yuan took out a piece of fluorite from your body and led the way while telling Ding Yi about his experiences these days.

It turned out that after Lu Yuan finished his work in Jiyun City, he did not go back to Tiangang City directly. Instead, he drove a puppet in a car and walked all the way north. He is a Xuan-level cultivator himself. He is a very brave person and is not afraid of anyone.

He was in the wilderness. Along the way, he was observing and thinking about what he saw and heard in Jiyun City and his observations in other cities. He even had a deep understanding of the lives of the poor villagers.

Along the way, he ate and slept in the open, and at one point he even entered the thatched houses of the villagers to understand and experience the living conditions of the villagers. Along the way, his thoughts underwent tremendous changes. Many of them were specious before and he had not fully thought them through.

Things suddenly became clear.

He originally admired Ding Yi and thought he understood Ding Yi's style of doing things. Now, he has completely accepted Ding Yi's thoughts. This cheered him up, and he greatly appreciated many of Ding Yi's original ideas.

He was amazed. He thought he had found the 'Tao' for his future. His whole person had undergone earth-shaking changes.

In a dilapidated courtyard surrounded by Lu Yuan, Lu Yuan put down the fluorite, and at the same time took out some formation disks and constructed a small formation. Lu Yuan then stopped moving. Ding Yi didn't understand what he meant, but he knew that Lu Yuan

Yuan will not harm him, but quietly watch Lu Yuan do these things.

"Xiao Yi, I rushed here when I heard that you were participating in the Qinglian Competition on behalf of Xuanzang Academy. I met Master Lu on the way and helped him with a small favor. I also fell in love with Master Lu's craftsmanship.

, and finally arrived here.”

Lu Yuan stopped Ding Yi's question and continued: "You must be curious as to why I didn't go back to Tiangang City. In fact, I don't plan to go back."

Ding Yi was shocked. Ding Yi knew very well the importance of Luyuan to Iron Cast City. Is this guy crazy?

"Xiao Yi, I have been to Jiyun City, met your parents, your relatives and friends, and saw the new world you created. To be honest, I was deeply shocked. I was in Jiyun

I lived in the city for more than a month. If it weren’t for the urging of several masters every day, I would not have wanted to leave. It was the happiest and most fulfilling month in my life. Only there did I realize what the founding father said.

What is the situation of "harmony and co-prosperity between cultivators and mortals"? It was there that I saw all kinds of puppetry techniques that shine. The more I know, the more I feel that your idea is correct. This is a path that has never been seen before.

You are the unyielding forerunner of the 'high road' that has been traveled by others, and I have decided to follow your footsteps and consolidate this 'high road' and lay a solid foundation."
