It is a rare happy event to meet old acquaintances in a foreign country. It's just that Ding Yi's situation is very special, he is the first person on the red notice, and his identity cannot be seen. Although Zhao Yong and the others were extremely happy, they still let him quickly transform back.

"Boss, it's really good to see you again, the reason why Zhen Zhen and I want to go to sea is actually to find you......" Ma Yuan was very excited. Who would have thought that they would meet here.

"Pony keeps saying that you will definitely be able to escape from the Huangquan sinkhole, maybe you are hiding in some overseas place, and you are isolated...... Zhen Zhen cried with joy.

Ding Yi only felt a warmth in his heart, glanced at Ma Yuan and Zhen Zhen, and couldn't help but say, hugging the two of them.

"Ding...... Mai Jia, what are you doing when you come back at this time? Now is not a good time, Daoyuan is looking for you all over the world, it is not safe everywhere, there are more raids than ever, and the censorship is stricter than ever. Especially in the seven southeastern provinces, there are cumbersome procedures for entering various cities...... By the way, how did you get here?" Zhao Yong asked, more sober.

Ding Yi sent Cai Meiniang and Dai Xiaoxue to inquire about intelligence, in fact, it was precisely because of this consideration that when he heard Zhao Yong talk about it, he hurriedly asked Zhao Yong for advice.

It turned out that eight years ago, Ding Yi fled overseas alone. The so-called monk can run, but can't run the temple, Tiangang City, Jiyun City, these two industrial cities, suffered a major disaster. Other industrial cities have also been hit hard.

Haibingwei, Buban, and Tianxingkong, the three great masters of the Iron Casting City, as well as Mo Ming, the formation master of the Ghost Valley, and Li Yu, the master of the mechanism, were reprimanded by being grounded...... Iron Forge City and Ghost Valley, all of them must stop the research of puppetry.

The Ministry of Education even removed the formation course from the textbooks of primary schools, and each cultivation academy ordered that only cultivators above the Xuan level were allowed to contact and learn formation and mechanism techniques. All academies, sects, and people below the Xuan level are not allowed to engage in activities related to refining. As for the private sector, a more stringent law was issued, and all workshops engaged in machinery manufacturing were banned......

The car club is recognized as an illegal organization, and any objects related to puppets will be destroyed, and puppet art is even recognized as evil magic, and the books of puppet Taoism are recognized as evil books, and no one is allowed to collect, study, or study them privately......

This kind of behavior of turning back the clock on history actually appeared in a country that boasted of being the most advanced, the most scientific, and the most free, and Ding Yi was dumbfounded.

"We, Xuanzang Academy, are the eye of this storm, and the special service supervision that has never happened in history, and the political review of teachers and students have all been staged one after another after you are gone. President Lei, Vice President Yang, Zeng Gui, Gu Gui...... They were removed from the Ministry of Education, the school is now headed by Qiu Fengwei, and the Xuanji Society has also been ordered to disband......" Ma Yuan introduced to Ding Yi with deep sorrow.

"What about Aunt Yao, and what about the Iron Master?" Ding Yi asked.

Ma Yuan was silent, just crying, and Zhen Zhen couldn't cry.

Zhao Yong sighed and said in a deep voice: "Aunt Yao, she, she committed suicide, the old principal of Tiezhongtang, Teacher Yi Xiaomei, Teacher Gu Yue, Teacher Xiao Ling...... They were imprisoned in Qinglan Prison. ”

Ding Yi's heart seemed to have been stabbed by a sharp knife, and his face was bloodless.

These elders and teachers are all elders whom he respects and loves very much, especially the old-timers such as Tie Zhongtang and Yi Xiaomei, they are all elders who have lived for several years, and they should have enjoyed their lives, but they didn't expect to be implicated in this way.

Ding Yi's heart was like a knife, and he couldn't extricate himself from the pain.

Although he had been mentally prepared for a long time, he was still extremely sad when he suddenly heard the bad news.

"Brother Tian, you don't matter, right?" Meng Chan saw that Ding Yi's face was pale and his breath was messy, and he hurriedly stepped forward to help.

"Senior Brother Xu, if you want to cry, just cry. Zhu Can also looked anxious.

Ding Yi waved his hand, his complexion was very bad, but he was not so angry that he went mad. He didn't expect that Dao Yuan would sacrifice such a heavy hand, and he didn't expect that so many innocent people would be implicated. Especially Shi Yao and him are like mother and son, and hearing the news of her death made Ding Yi feel painful.

Ding Yi took a deep breath, he wanted to smile to ease the atmosphere, but his smile was more ugly than crying.

"I'm coming back to solve this problem, and I can't let these respected teachers be affected, I ......"

"Playing the piano, Ding Yi, you're coming here!" Zhao Yong scolded angrily.

"We all know that this is a battle between you and the national teacher, and we are not on your side. Look at how many innocent people have been affected because of you. However, what the national teacher did was even more wrong, the Dao Law was three thousand, it was not necessarily necessary to rank a seat, and no matter how wrong the puppet Dao was, he should not be punished like this. What's more, this has also affected the people, causing countless mortals to lose their livelihoods and make their livelihoods difficult. ”

"Principal Lei Yu, and other teachers, are indeed implicated because of you, but everyone has no regrets. We support you, sympathize with you, and are willing to help you, but it does not mean that we agree with you to fight with the national teacher. The culprit of this matter is the national teacher, he is a little paranoid, and he has indeed gone too far against your puppets.

You must have suffered a lot and sins over the years...... I can understand that you are dissatisfied with the Empire, but the object of your resentment should be the Daoyuan National Master, not anyone else. Eight or nine years have passed, so why don't you wait a few more years? The national teacher is already an old man with four Jiazi, and he has a few more years to live? Do you have to disrupt the current situation, like the Truth Society and the Manggu Sect?

Principal Lei Yu's forbearance and sacrifice are not for you to do this. Do you want to be a rebel of the empire? Do you want to turn Qinglan Prison into Yankai Prison? Don't say, you don't have this idea!"

Ding Yi really had this idea, but he also understood Zhao Yong's thoughts very well. The country's system has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Everyone is proud to be a monk of this empire, and the influence of the empire on them has long been deeply rooted in their thoughts. They don't want to change everything in the moment.

Although everyone is very sympathetic to Ding Yi and very dissatisfied with Daoyuan's indiscriminate and brutal suppression, if Ding Yi tries to change and destroy, they will not agree to this system.

Lu Yuan has long discussed this issue with Ding Yi, in this world, the only people who really want to change are the ants in the eyes of those cultivators, those so-called 'humble mortals'. They are the firm cornerstones of the puppet road.

Therefore, when Zhao Yong said this, Ding Yi was not surprised.

Ding Yi didn't want to refute Zhao Yong, he even believed that there should be many people who had the same idea as Zhao Yong.

"Senior Brother Zhao Yong, I don't agree with your opinion!" Meng Chan stepped forward.

Zhao Yong was a little surprised, this woman who has been quiet since coming here. Her true identity was not introduced by Ding Yi. However, it can be seen that her friendship with Ding Yi is not ordinary.

"Over the years, all the division commanders and fellow students should have been affected by their grandfathers. Everyone should have had a very hard time. Meng Chan said slowly.

She turned out to be Ding Yi's double cultivation partner, and the eyes of everyone looking at Meng Chan were a little different. Ding Yi's great reputation is said to be a figure that has not been born for thousands of years, who is this woman who is sacred, who can win Ding Yi's favor and marry Ding Yi?

Zhao Yong and the three of them bowed halfway to Meng Chan.

Meng Chan returned the salute and continued: "Everyone is the same door as the grandson, and the grandson is very clear about the person. The grandson is honest and upright by nature, he is kind to others everywhere, and he is even more helpful, whether he is a monk or a mortal, he is always willing to give, never caring about personal gains and losses. Is such a person an evil man? Was what happened to his grandfather caused by himself? When he fled overseas, he was less than 12 years old. Even if a child of this kind makes a mistake, how much of a mistake can he make?

As for the puppet Dao, as Senior Brother Zhao said, this is only one of the Three Thousand Great Dao. This puppet Dao is not the first creation of the Waizi, this Dao method has always existed throughout the ages. Is it just because my grandson has learned puppet art that he has violated the rules of heaven and has to be dealt with by the national teacher with the strength of the whole country? Children under the age of 12 are ranked first on the red notice, which is simply outrageous. The grandson fled overseas, but the old thief of Daoyuan still refused to let him go, and sent domestic masters to surround and suppress him several times, and finally forced the grandson into the Jedi Huangquan Tiankeng......

What is wrong with an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth? In the cultivation realm, we respect strength, and we admit that now, we are not the opponent of Daoyuan, so we have to endure humiliation and bear the burden, and be bullied and oppressed by him...... However, this does not mean that we must swallow our anger and knock out our teeth and swallow blood. He is a dignified national teacher, he doesn't care about his identity, he bullies us, isn't he allowed to fight back?"

"Brother and sister, you're right!" Ma Yuan responded loudly, but he was glared at by Zhao Yong in an instant, and hurriedly stopped.

Zhao Yong is very fierce to Ma Yuan, but he is still kind to Meng Chan.

"That brother and sister, you feel sorry for your husband, I can understand this, as his senior brother, we are all loving and caring, and we have no other meaning. Aren't we afraid that he will make a wrong choice for a while?" Zhao Yong said cautiously.

"Senior Brother Zhao, in your opinion, these thousands of mistakes are just the fault of Daoyuan National Teacher, one person, so I have to endure it, I'm not wrong, right?" Meng Chan asked politely.

Zhao Yong was stunned, and he nodded.

Meng Chan sneered: "Senior Brother Zhao, you are a gentleman, many things, you don't know, your Shenwu Empire can be said to be from head to toe, everywhere is hiding dirt and dirt, and there are places where you can't see the light, you don't know, maybe, you don't know yet, right? Do you know how many test sites there are in the empire, and how many villagers of the empire are sent to various test sites every year to be used as raw materials for the creation pill and other elixirs? You are a beast tamer, so do you know the 'Swallowing Beast'? In order to enhance its bloodthirsty attack power, the Imperial Breeding Ground is fed with living people......"

Part of what Meng Chan said came from the narrative of Ding Yi and Jin Jiao, and part of it was told to her by Cai Meiniang.

Cai Shi, a thousand-faced person, has been to many places, she has ever-changing magical powers, ghosts and gods are difficult to distinguish, and she goes in and out of various confidential places, such as entering a no-man's land......

These things are completely beyond Zhao Yong's understanding, he is not familiar with Meng Chan, and he is a little suspicious.

Ding Yi sighed. He looked complicated, glanced at Zhao Yong, and said, "What the little cicada said is the truth. I've stolen into a few test sites in the Boulder Continent, and to be honest, these actions of the empire are better than the demons in the phantom disk. It was very bloody and brutal, and it was inhumane. The elixirs issued by the Ministry of Education every year, especially those like Zhuji Dan, Juling Pill and Breaking God Pill, are actually a lot of secret medicines, all of which are refined using such a yin damage method. Senior Sister Zhen Zhen is a pharmacist, so she should know the difference between the essence of plants and trees and the alchemy of flesh and blood. ”

Zhao Yong looked at Zhen Zhen, Zhen Zhen didn't speak, just nodded silently.

Ding Yi continued: "Either we will join the stream, and we will enjoy the elixir refined by other people's flesh and blood, or otherwise, we will become other people's elixir...... Is that really good?

Senior Brother Zhao, I know that you are old and serious, for my good, two brothers in one world, how can I not know your intentions? Do you think that Dao Yuan and I are just a dispute between the Great Dao? There are three thousand Great Dao, and Dao Yuan can accommodate other Dao Sects, why can't you just tolerate the puppet Dao, have you thought about this question?"

Zhao Yong's face was a little discouraged, the amount of information he got today was a little too large, especially when he heard those imperial secrets for the first time, he didn't have time to digest and sort them out for a while.

He didn't trust Meng Chan, but he believed in Ding Yi, and Ding Yi's words were deafening and made him a little uneasy. The foundation of trust in the empire that had been building on it for years suddenly disintegrated, making it difficult for him to adapt for a while, and he fell silent.

Ding Yi turned his head and looked at Ma Yuan and Zhen Zhen.

"Boss, no matter what you do, the old horse will support you. Ma Yuan grinned.

"And me, and me!" Zhen Zhen also said loudly.

Ding Yi looked at Ma Yuan and Zhen Zhen, and a rare smile appeared on his face.

The spirit monkey on Zhao Yong's shoulder suddenly 'squeaked' and danced.

Everyone looked up and saw a low-level animal trainer leading a mother and daughter over. It turned out that Cai Meiniang and Dai Xiaoxue were back.

Zhao Yong and the others couldn't help but be a little curious when they saw the mortal mother and daughter coming.

Ding Yi stood up and introduced to Zhao Yong and the others: "This one is a powerful grandmaster, for some reason that cannot be said, I won't introduce it in detail, you can call her Aunt Fang, Aunt Fang, these are my brothers in life and death in the Xuanzang Academy." ”

"And me, and me, I'm Brother Tian's closed disciple Dai Xiaoxue!" Dai Xiaoxue introduced herself to everyone.

Zhen Zhen likes this little girl who looks smart and quirky very much. She hurriedly beckoned to Dai Xiaoxue and pulled her to her side.

Everyone hurriedly saluted Cai Meiniang, Cai Meiniang waved her hand, and said with a smile: "You don't have to be so restrained, I'm just a follower of the magician, since everyone is your own person, don't be so nervous." ”

Cai Meiniang handed Meng Chan an inquiring look, Meng Chan sighed, and whispered Zhen Zhen to Ding Yi. Cai Meiniang glanced at Ding Yi, obviously complaining that Ding Yi's acting skills had not yet been learned.

Ding Yi touched his nose and laughed dryly.

Zhen Zhen thought at first that Dai Xiaoxue was a mortal who deliberately pretended to be a mortal using a secret method, but she didn't expect that the little girl was a mortal at all, and she couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"Don't underestimate Xiaoxue, ten of you are not her opponent, she is an out-and-out Xuan-level puppet grandmaster. Cai Meiniang introduced to Zhen Zhen.

Zhao Yong and the others were taken aback, the female baby with mortal qualifications turned out to be a Xuan-level puppet grandmaster. This has turned their perception upside down.

Like a split of spiritual light, Zhao Yong understood in an instant......

I see, no wonder, Dao Yuan will specifically target the puppet Dao, specifically target Ding Yi, and he understood it all at once.

Zhao Yong was a little dazed for a while......

"Senior Brother Ma, I asked you about the Xuanji Society earlier, but you haven't told me yet. Ding Yi remembered at this time and continued to ask Ma Yuan.

Ma Yuan patted his head and hurriedly said: "Dao Yuan is nervous and wants you all over the world, and at the same time, he sent your fellow countryman Mu Zhiming, who is the arrogant little white-faced Lao Tzu......"

Ding Yi said: "It's Senior Brother Mu Haoran." ”

Ma Yuan nodded and continued: "Mu Zhiming, this old coffin board, is really not a thing, he didn't do a good thing when he came to our southeast, ban this, ban that, wreak havoc, and make it a miasma everywhere, and he has also sent special agents to the school, to conduct political trials, and to ban the Xuanji Society is the lack of virtue that this old coffin board does." ”

"The Immortal Cave was sealed, and the Xuanji Society was ordered to be disbanded, but Xiao Jiang and the others were unwilling, they secretly built a camp in the Luming Forest, and still secretly learned puppetry, and several old-timers also helped them cover ......"

Ding Yi remembered the secret base he established when he took Han Yuanlong and them to training. Probably that's where it is.

"Originally, it was too peaceful, there is a person named Yinghua in the Xuanji Society, do you remember?" Ma Yuan asked Ding Yidao.

The treasure collector should be transformed, how could Ding Yi not remember.

"Things are bad in the hands of this kid, he resold things from the Xuanji Society and went to Black Sand City, but he was caught, and the bastard of the secret service directly carried out a soul search for the corresponding...... Principal Lao Tie, Granny Yi Xiaomei...... In order to protect Jiang Yuhan and them, they stepped forward and took all the blame and went to prison. Jiang Yuhan and the other students were also ordered to drop out of school. Jiang Yuhan privately gathered the senior brothers of the Xuanji Society, and first secretly studied puppetry in the Jiang family's manor. Later, the matter was revealed, several brothers were arrested, and there was a junior brother named Chilu, who died on the spot, and several people who escaped were headed by Jiang Yuhan and set up a demon gate. They are still learning puppetry...... They are also wanted by the Empire now, and their situation is very bad, and they only rely on some of their fellow disciples and brothers in the Xuanzang Academy to help them survive......"

Ding Yi was in a very sad mood, and he hurriedly asked, "Those senior brothers who were arrested, how are they now?"

Ma Yuan shook his head, he remembered what Meng Chan and Ding Yi had said before, and his voice was extremely heavy: "I heard that they ...... They were sent to the Boulder Continent......"
