Ding Yi performed a complex operation. He first took She Hualong to the stone warehouse. Ma Yuan controlled a puppet of Chang Huaiyong from a distance to replace his real body. While everyone was leaving,

At the finished product warehouse, he took Xiao Hei and She Hualong back to Hongshan. After leaving Xiao Hei and She Hualong behind, he sneaked back into Qinglan Prison again. Under the cover of Zhang Kui (Meng Chan), he once again put away

Puppet, transform back into Chang Huaiyong.

The combination of illusion and puppetry achieved good results in this actual combat.

The only thing worth debating is that they played the "big transformation into a living person" under Wei Shangguan's nose, but did not attract Wei Shangguan's attention. You must know that Wei Shangguan is a great master of sword spirit, with eyes and ears.

Listening to all directions, the spiritual awareness is astonishing. Cai Meiniang activates the 'Illusion World', and Ding Yi and Meng Chan simultaneously activate the 'Ghost Breaking the Wall'. In fact, there is a considerable probability that Wei Shangguan will detect it.

Maybe, Wei Shangguan had already noticed that everyone was from the southeastern lineage, and Wei Shangguan deliberately let the water go. Maybe, at that time, Wei Shangguan happened to activate the 'Grass Sword' magical power, and his attention was on Zhou Yu... Anyway, in short

Everyone muddled through and achieved their goal.

What Ding Yi and Tiezhongtang are talking about at this moment is about the future of Xuanzang Academy.

This was a risky move. As Ding Yi said, he was only half sure. But Tie Zhongtang readily agreed to it without even thinking about it. It was really beyond Ding Yi's expectation.

However, from this point, it can be seen that as the Grand Master, Tiezhongtang's vision and structure are far superior to those of Zhou Yu, Ma Yuan and other senior brothers.

Seeing that Ding Yi was a little surprised, Tie Zhongtang smiled and said: "The foundation of cultivation in the southeast of the mainland is weak, and Xuanzang College has the worst conditions here. Originally, because of you, you brought the college to an unprecedented height, and we still expected to rely on

I tried to run a good business based on your reputation, but I didn’t expect that something like this would happen later.”

Ding Yi lowered his head in shame.

Tie Zhongtang sighed and said: "You don't need to blame yourself. It's not your fault in this matter. You are a good boy. Your original intention and intention are not wrong, but they are contrary to Daoyuan's thoughts. The only thing wrong is

Because you are so outstanding, you have shown such extraordinary potential, strength and ability at such a young age, which will be destroyed by the wind!"

"Thanks to you, I have also studied puppetry for several years. Based on your actions, I have come to the same view as Daoyuan. The one who will change the future must be you or your disciples. This

The general trend and direction will not change..."

Lu Yuan once carefully analyzed the rise and fall, development, pros and cons of puppetry with Ding Yi. He is the most active advocate of puppetry in Ding Yi's lineage. He and Ding Yi explained many theoretical analyzes very thoroughly.

Ding Yi didn't find it too abrupt when Tiezhongtang said these words.

Tie Zhongtang continued: "You did not create the Puppet Tao, but the prosperity of the Puppet Tao and the great thought of the Puppet Tao were perfected and promoted by you. There is no doubt that I used to teach "General History of Cultivation" in school.

I know a little bit about the history, development, and evolution of each Taoist sect.

During the past few years in prison, I have been thinking, why 490 years ago, Emperor Xiao Feng was able to sweep across Liuhe and all directions and establish an unparalleled empire? In terms of qualifications and abilities, Xiao Feng was not the strongest at that time. In terms of resources and minerals, at that time

Western Qin is the poorest...Xiao Yi, have you ever thought about this problem?"

Ding Yi said: "Senior brother Lu Yuan once analyzed this issue with me. He proposed the concept of a national cultivation system. At first, Western Qin was weak, but with the power of a country, Western Qin was more than enough to fight against any sect. Later on

, the Western Qin was brutal, using the secret method of cultivation to refine thousands of people, forge iron armies, and run rampant in the world. It used mineral resources and spiritual stones to bribe the cultivation sects of various countries and encroached on the world... By the time various cultivation sects wake up, the situation of the Western Qin has become

, but no one can control it."

Tie Zhongtang nodded and sighed: "I have heard about Lu Yuan, but I never thought that such a knowledgeable and talented person would eventually die..."

Ding Yi said solemnly: "At first, senior brother Lu Yuan and I had some differences. He wanted to popularize puppetry among the people, from the bottom up, and change the world. I think that there are three thousand avenues, and the puppetry is just one of them. I don't want to compete with other sects.

I argued that his thoughts were too extreme. I originally wanted to adopt a gentle approach and go step by step... It turns out that Senior Brother Lu was right. Senior Brother Lu could have survived. He did it on purpose, just to use his death.

Tell me, what is the so-called battle between great avenues?"

Tie Zhongtang sighed again: "I never expected that you puppet Taoists would have such a staunch martyr..."

Ding Yi asked curiously: "Tie Shi, you are a great master of telekinesis. Why do you agree with our Puppet Tao philosophy?"

Tie Zhongtang said: "This goes back to my previous question, why was Emperor Xiao Feng able to create the most powerful Shenwu Empire in the world? Lu Yuan analyzed it very thoroughly, but there is one more thing he did not mention, that is

People’s hearts.”

"People's hearts?" Ding Yi was a little confused.

Tie Zhongtang explained: "There are two kinds of people's hearts, selfishness and publicity. We don't need to pay attention to Emperor Xiao Feng's methods and means. However, at that time, he grasped the publicity of cultivators. Selfishness is the source of all evils in human beings.

If you don't do it for yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth! Xiao Yi, you have been overseas and you should know the situation overseas. The world five hundred years ago, whether it is Tianyuan Continent, Giant Rock Continent, Arctic Continent, including our Liuhua Continent, is actually no different from overseas.

The secular country is controlled by various cultivation sects and Taoist sects. The purpose of the country's existence is to provide a steady stream of cultivation resources to the divine envoys, that is, cultivators. That's all. Emperor Xiao Feng changed this model. He did the opposite.

Follow the path and finally become this

The supreme king in the world...the system he constructed is, in the final analysis, to win over the hearts of monks all over the world and become the cornerstone of his kingly hegemony."

Ding Yi was born in the Shenwu Empire, so he naturally understood this truth.

Tie Zhongtang smiled and said: "You are more thorough than Emperor Xiao Feng. Your puppet way is compatible with the world, even including mortals, and you are more 'public-minded' than him. It is said that those who win the hearts of the people win the world, your trick of 'the world is for the public',

His ambitions are much higher than that of Emperor Xiao Feng. No wonder Daoyuan is jumping around and will kill you before you can grow up."

Tie Zhongtang's words are correct. After all, 99.99% of the people in this world are just mortals. As long as Ding Yi is given enough time and space, changing the world is not just a matter of paper, it will definitely become possible.

.

Ding Yi bowed deeply to Tiezhongtang.

"I originally thought of a lot of words to persuade you, but I didn't expect you, Iron Master, to be so understanding of justice."

Tie Zhongtang was not pretentious. He added: "You can't delay too long. I already know your plan from Ma Yuan. Your plan of 'Li Dai Tao Zhan' is fine in the short term, but if you want it to work for a long time,

, but it is not an easy task. Here in Qinglan Prison, Gu Yue and I stay. The two of us have the longest sentences. At the same time, we have both learned puppetry from you. The people who are left here, Xiao Xiao and I

Ancient times are the most suitable.”

As an iconic figure, Tie Zhongtang is still somewhat regretful for not leaving with Ding Yi. But Tie Zhongtang’s words are very reasonable. Besides, every year, the Ministry of Justice will have inspectors come down for inspections. Most people can say that if they find out that Tie Zhongtang

, is a counterfeit, which will definitely bring devastating disaster to the Xuanzang Academy headquarters.

Ding Yi didn't insist anymore, he handed Tiezhongtang a storage ring. Inside the storage ring, there were jade talismans that could communicate with Yangjiaoyi Zhao Yong, as well as some main parts of the puppet, the array plate, and an improved version of

"Gui La", some secret cultivation medicines including spiritual cleansing liquid, and an "Intermediate Puppet Technique" compiled by Ding Yi. In addition, there are more than a dozen puppet insects in it.

There are a lot of people to be replaced, a total of fifty-nine people. Hongshan is stepping up production, and it will take two days to achieve this goal.

Fortunately, people like Tiezhongtang, Zhao Zhenggang, Guyue, Wu Maonan, and Rolex have all learned puppetry from Ding Yi, and their stand-in puppets were already made yesterday. If these new forces join in, the production of puppets can be greatly improved.

A lot faster.

Tie Zhongtang was in Qinglan Prison, coordinating and organizing personnel to replace real people and puppets. He could only be picked up by Ding Yi at night to help them with production.

The two discussed some details carefully, and soon the two reached an agreement.

"Xiao Yi, She Hualong, don't play him to death. Leave this thief to me." Tie Zhongtang said to Ding Yi when he said goodbye.

Ding Yi nodded solemnly.

Ding Yi and Tiezhongtang spent a lot of time discussing together. Teachers and students from Xuanzang College blocked both ends of the corridor and no one was allowed to approach. After the two talked, they went their separate ways. Naturally, Tiezhongtang summoned Xuanzang College.

When the people implemented the plan of "Li Dai Tao Zhan", Ding Yi and Meng Chan took advantage of the situation, replaced the real body with a puppet, left the prison, and returned to Hongshan.

In the prison, only Cai Meiniang, the Thousand-Faced Man, is left to deal with it for the time being.

Although She Hualong's stand-in puppet was made early, Tie Zhongtang and Gu Yue still need some practice to control the puppet well.

Anyway, the communication between the two sides remains open, and there are hundreds of puppet insects monitoring every move in the prison. For the time being, everything is still under control. Every one or two hours, Ding Yi goes into the prison and takes out the teachers and students of Xuanzang College.

.

The teachers and students of Xuanzang Academy who were picked up controlled their own stand-in puppets for an hour or two. The purpose of this was to leave their own mantras and idioms in the memory array of the stand-in puppet.

This kind of stand-in puppet has only more than 300 sentences and can carry out simple spoken conversations. However, everyone speaks at a different speed and style, which requires the cultivator to make fine adjustments on his own.

After completing these tasks, the monks from Xuanzang Academy who came to Hongshan began to make puppets under the guidance of Meng Chan and Dai Xiaoxue.

Han Jiahui and Ding Siqi also participated in the production of the puppets.

Ding Siqi's mission is to catch as many insects as possible. The puppet itself is just a dead object. To make it have both form and spirit, Ding Yi's "ghost-telling technique" must be used. This link is very important.

Fortunately, the weather in September is the active period for insects, so Ding Siqi does not need to travel far and can just move around people.

Han Jiahui was responsible for styling the hair, harvesting the black fungus that Meng Chan had spawned, and pasting it on the puppet with glue, so that the puppet would look the same as a real person.

Gu Yue, Zhao Zhenggang, Wu Maonan, and Rolex are the first people to learn puppetry from Ding Yi. Puppetry is easy to get started, but becomes more difficult as you go up. However, for these senior Xuan-level seniors,

Their puppetry skills are not low. Zhao Zhenggang and Gu Yue's puppetry skills have reached the high level of spiritual level. Rolex and Wu Maonan are also at the middle level of spiritual level.

Among the teachers and students of Xuanzang Academy, there are several fire cultivators and metal cultivators. The speed of puppet production actually exceeded Ding Yi's expectations.

Ding Yi is responsible for organizing and coordinating work in this group. He also took the time to go to the nearest Nanhaocheng and purchase some production supplies. He is the busiest one, but he can bring out teachers and brothers one by one.

Qinglan Prison, he was very happy and did not feel tired.

The more people were taken out, the more detailed the division of labor. The task of monitoring the surrounding environment and Qinglan Prison was given to the Nian Master, while the weapon refining was left to the Fire Cultivator and the Metal Cultivator. Cai Meiniang could not escape for the time being.

There is no way to 'cleanse' everyone's souls. For the time being, everyone can only hide in this base and act in their true colors.

She Hualong was dizzy and woke up. With the secret medicine of cultivation like 'obedient water', there was no need to search for souls. Zhen Zhen dug out his bottom and turned it upside down.

Knowing that this guy was the person named by Tie Zhongtang to be kept alive, Zhen Zhen did not dare to do too many drug experiments on him.

Zhen Zhen is full of clever ideas and clever, and her method of rectifying people is absolutely top-notch. How could She Hualong get anything good if she falls into his hands?

He woke up and passed out again, over and over again, and went through ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties. Even though he was at the mid-level Xuan level, he couldn't withstand Zhen Zhen's tricks. What was frustrating was that during the short period of time when She Hualong was awake,

, he still hasn’t figured out where exactly this place is and who captured him.

Although Ding Yi hates She Hualong deeply, this is the guy named by Tie Zhongtang to live. There are a large group of people in Hongshan who hate She Hualong more than him. In the end, it is him who often persuades everyone to calm down.
