Ding Yi took out the glass-like bead from the box that Duoduo gave to Ding Yi, and carefully examined it under the glowstone. What is the secret of this orb that Ding Yi took the risk to retrieve?

It's a pity that he doesn't have the Five Elements Divine Power, otherwise he would have condensed a water ball and used it as a magnifying glass, and he would definitely be able to see the needle-sized formations clearly, and maybe he would be able to unlock the secret of this orb.

Time is precious, fleeting, and we must make something before the tiger skin comes, otherwise it will be too much of a loss.

The earliest magnifying glass is said to have been discovered by cultivators, in addition to the condensed water ball, there is also grinding ice into a ball, which is a feasible method, which is introduced in these books, but now it is not winter, and the second is not a monk of the five elements, so he will not have the magical power of condensing the water ball. In fact, cultivators have a lot of spells and supernatural powers that can be observed, such as what kind of eagle eye technique, perspective eye, and so on......

Suddenly, Ding Yi thought of a book that vaguely recorded the record of using an iron ring to soak water into a magnifying glass, and the iron wire was in his own small box, and he didn't know if this method could be done. Hurriedly picked up the teacup and went outside the house to fill a glass of water and returned to the house. Put a wire around one end of an iron ring the size of a small thumb and put it in the water, and the water will soak the iron ring, and the iron ring will form a magnifying glass shape.

Ding Yi carefully carried the wire, because if he shook it slightly, the water would drip from the iron ring, and under this earthy magnifying glass, Ding Yi really saw those subtle formations. When it was time to identify it carefully, it may have been a little excited, the power was not well controlled, and the water droplet slipped from the iron ring and dripped on the bead.

Ding Yi hurriedly came again, but he only remembered the three formations, and the water dripped down again. Ding Yi hurriedly took out the charcoal pencil next to him and quickly recorded it on the paper, a good memory is not as good as a bad pen. Ding Yi was afraid that he would forget.

"You can't do this, you must know that some of the formations are three-dimensional, and you know that the formations are strange and positive, and there are also monarchs and ministers who say, if you don't know the formation diagram, in order to peek at the leopard, you can only see a very small part, and you can generalize to the whole, after all, you still don't know the essentials. "The cat on the roof beam has mysteriously appeared.

How did it get in, Ding Yi had no interest in exploring it, the skills of cultivators were originally so mysterious and unpredictable, high and high. Ding Yi's back was cold again.

Fortunately, this time the tiger skin seemed to be in good spirits, and Ding Yi was not held accountable. On the contrary, he was very pleased that Ding Yi was able to complete the task he gave him.

"Boy, you are really a person with a great opportunity, this time you can get the instant bead in the hands of those mad dogs, it is really good, it seems that you have to give you some appropriate rewards. You must know that I have always been a person with clear rewards and punishments, and you will not suffer in vain. You've done a good job this time, keep up the good work, and the rewards will come in two days. The tiger skin jumped from the roof beam to the table, pacing back and forth, the cat's eyes glowing with cold.

"My lord, I don't want any reward, but I just hope that my lord will see if I can forgive the sins I have committed for the sake of taking all the trouble to retrieve this jewel, and not let me do these frightening deeds again. Ding Yi hurriedly prayed.

"Don't you know the truth that you are a thief for one day and a thief for life? Let me let you go? Boy, do you know how many mad dogs are looking for this instant bead you just got for me? If you don't tell them, you will say that you are wrong, and you shouldn't have taken what should have belonged to them? Do you think the mad dogs outside will forgive you?" Tiger Skin said leisurely.

"As long as you promised me to hand over the silver dollar to Zhou Chong, it will be cleared, and then I ran errands for you again, plus this time, you are simply deceiving me. Ding Yi decided to let it go. Because he felt the rope around his neck tighten and tighten.

"Yes, I'm just deceiving you and taking advantage of you. Imp, you won't really be so naïve as to think you're just going to get rid of it, remember that the only thing you can trust in this world is yourself. Tiger Skin smirked.

"Keep up the good work, ha" Tiger Skin swallowed the instant bead in one gulp, and gently swept Ding Yi's cheek left and right with his tail. Teng jumped up to the beam, "See you later." Tiger Skin's polite greeting, disappeared in an instant.

How to get rid of Lao Zhang's control is a big problem that Ding Yi is facing now, and it is impossible for Ding Yi to surrender to Lancôme, which is undoubtedly self-defeating. It may not be feasible to move the family, after all, the cultivators' tracking methods and revenge methods are also quite terrifying, and if that is the case, it will be clear that they have betrayed Lao Zhang. Lao Zhang's organization sent someone over casually, and the Ding family would definitely be wiped out.

After thinking about it for a long time, there is still no more feasible way. The only way to change all this is to make yourself stronger.

The next day, after everyone at work went out, Ding Li found Ding Yi and said straight to the point: "Xiao Yi, I want to make a deal with you." ”

Ding Yi tilted his head and looked at his eldest brother obliquely. Ding Li also knew that yesterday's incident made Ding Yi a little bitter about him and couldn't let go. He ignored his brother's rudeness.

"As long as you promise to come back every afternoon before Mom and Dad finish work, I won't interfere with your activities, and I'll put water in checking your homework. Ding Li stared at Ding Yi and said.

"What about the conditions?" Of course, Ding Yi knew such a good thing, and it was impossible without the preconditions.

"The condition is that you can't interfere with me, and at the same time you have to help me cover up, and the most important thing is that you can't tell your family about Jiahui. ”

"Deal. "Ding Yi is not interested in Ding Li's affairs at all, and even has a dark thought in his heart, you are now spending all your attention on falling in love, and you have abandoned your studies, and you will not be admitted to college when the time comes, see how you explain to your parents.

The brothers left home almost front and back, Ding Li went to his sister, and Ding Yi went straight to school.

This was actually the idea that Ding Yi came up with this morning.

To go to school, of course, is to find Lao Zhang. Since you can't get rid of it for the time being, and the danger of the task is getting higher and higher, since there are rewards, it is important to choose the reward that suits you.

Ding Yi didn't know what the reward given by Lao Zhang would be. But Ding Yi still wants to fight for it, he doesn't want those cultivation items, whether those things really work or not is not discussed for the time being, but it is absolutely impossible to fight against the cultivators with just one cultivation item, there is really that kind of thing, and Lao Zhang can't give it to himself.

Yunbei School, the tiger skin was lazily dozing under the dragon's blood tree in front of the gatehouse, the campus was quiet, Lao Zhang was washing a stack of tableware by the drinking pool, Ding Yi walked straight to the door of the campus and said hello from afar.

Lao Zhang was not too surprised by Ding Yi's arrival, and it was no different from the Lao Zhang he usually saw when Ding Yi was in school. Tiger Skin found out about Ding Yi's arrival, and walked to his side enthusiastically, and kept rubbing Ding Yi's calf, if it wasn't for several dealings, no one would know that this disguised harmless cat was such a terrifying existence.

Lao Zhang is busy with his own business slowly, and Ding Yi's patience is surprisingly good. After about five or six minutes, Lao Zhang finished his business, pulled out the bolt of the side door, and let Ding Yi in.

"Have you eaten? I still have a few flax cakes here, I'm old, not younger than you, I can eat and sleep, hey, it's good to be young." Lao Zhang walked to the gatehouse, and Ding Yi followed suit.

"I've eaten it. Ding Yi said.

"When I was young, I thought I could do anything, and I fantasized about changing all this, but when I was old, I realized how the world was and how it is now. Not more energetic than you, we are twilight, and this world is still yours after all. Lao Zhang chattered and said some dull words without knowing what to do.

Ding Yi listened to it for a long time and didn't know what to say, but he listened patiently.

"No one has ever come to talk to my old man, I have been alone for a long time, I am inevitably a little lonely, I like to talk to myself, you can come and talk to my old man, it is better. "Lao Zhang was very relieved.

"The seniors are the elders of the same era as my grandfather, regardless of your age and experience, life experience, it is worth learning from us juniors, and it is my creation to be able to listen to your teachings. Ding Yi said incorrectly.

"Boy, you're very interesting, really interesting, in fact, I've seen so many naughty, detached children from this gatehouse, but I didn't remember you very much, until you came to school that night. I asked myself that there are not a few children I have seen, and many of them have grown up as I expected, but you are really beyond my expectations. ”

"Do you know your difference?" asked Lao Zhang.

"I'd love to hear what my seniors have to say about me. Ding Yi looked honored and disgraced.

"How do you know how to manage?" Lao Zhang suddenly asked.

Ding Yi had no doubt that when Lao Zhang possessed the spirit of the tiger skin, he went to the Ding family and heard a lot of stories about the Ding family.

"I saw it in the book, "Shenwu Ji" The battle of the West recorded above, when the Western Qin was only a withered land, the whole country was only four million people, the territory was only 800 li, and the thousands of miles of Hanhai occupied most of the land of the country, the soldiers were only 20,000, the Wei Wu Empire was thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, the population was 10,000, and there were hundreds of thousands of warriors in armor, and the Western Qin and Wei Wu fought in the valley of confusion, and won the battle, that is, at that time, the father of the country formed the magic array with the method of cultivating the truth, and the magic of the gods was used in logistics, such as the arm and the finger, the life of the three armies, and the efficiency was doubled, which broke 200,000 with 10,000 and laid the initial foundation of the Shenwu Empire. Ding Yi replied.

This is beautified in the book, but the real situation is not like this, and it is better to have no book than to have a letter. But you are also right, Western Qin used the secret method of cultivating the truth, using people as a tool, and refining the soldier Yu Mengchang, in fact, the Western Qin violated the general rule of the continent that cultivators were not allowed to interfere with mortal battles earlier, but Western Qin and Wei Wu were both in the Western Regions, which was a notoriously poor and remote place on the mainland, and few cultivators noticed there, which gave Western Qin a chance to rise...... But speaking of which, it can be regarded as a method of management. Lao Zhang sneered.

"Do you know which soldiers can fight against a hundred? And they can strictly abide by military discipline and not be afraid of life and death? Those are all the methods of cultivators. Which soldiers are overdrawing their lives, they can only have two or three years of life at most. They have all been sacrificed into humanoid puppets, just some living dead who look like soldiers, and they are all ants under the cultivation, and the means of the cultivators are like this, now you know. ”

"The truth of history is often deliberately covered up, so the so-called history books are only remembered for the victors. Lao Zhang's deep voice was full of vicissitudes.

No wonder this old thing is so cynical and against the authorities. This guy's outlook on life and worldview is distorted. Ding Yi thought to himself.

"You are very smart, and smart people are arrogant, just like your dead ghost grandfather," said the old Zhang Wei with a smile. "But you know how to compromise, you know how to be flexible, and you are better than your dead grandfather. After all, this world is still the law of the jungle, the law of the jungle eats the strong, and the cultivation realm is the same, it will always be the one with the big fist who speaks. ”

"You should be good at protecting yourself when you are weak, and there is no shame in succumbing to the strong. What self-esteem, self-love, the weak don't have these, pity their own lives, and survive in this cannibalistic world, is the most important thing, you say I'm right?" Lao Zhang's white and black eyes stared at Ding Yi coldly.

Ding Yi responded loudly: "You are right, it makes too much sense. The younger generation only hates himself for being young and ignorant, only knows how to play around, and has not been able to listen to the teachings of the seniors, you are really good. Ding Yi only felt that he was in a cold sweat all over his body.

"You don't come to put a high hat on me, in fact, you wish I died early, right? "Old fellows aren't that easy to fool.

"Tell me, what kind of reward do you want, aren't you here for this?"

"I'm hoping to get some inheritance of the formation. "Ding Yi is not hypocritical.

"It seems that you really want to be a puppeteer, but this is not a good path, boy, okay, I know, I can fight for you. You're good to go. Next time, bring some small dried fish, my flower tiger likes it. Lao Zhang sent the guest directly.
