This black shadow is a very well-made wooden puppet.

The puppet appears to be composed of some kind of pale yellow wood, eight feet tall, with all four limbs, the root joints are clearly visible, and some complex spiral patterns are faintly visible at the joint occlusion. The facial contours are clear, like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, and the facial features are extremely delicate, but a pair of eyes are made of unknown materials, and the inner pupils are like candle flames, embedded in the eye sockets, swaying slightly from time to time, looking mysterious and mysterious.

This was the first time Xiao Yin had seen a puppet, and when he was surprised, he couldn't help but look at it carefully for a long time.

This wooden puppet was just hit by Xiao Yin's Little Heavenly Sword Array, but the joints on its body were not damaged in the slightest, obviously its raw materials were by no means ordinary, and Xiao Yin was secretly surprised in his heart.

Xiao Yin observed for a long time, and found that the wooden puppet had not moved, as if it was a dead thing, and after hesitating for a moment, he planned to get closer and take a closer look.

Unexpectedly, just as Xiao Yin was about to get closer, the candle flame eyes of the wooden puppet shook suddenly, and he slowly raised his arm towards Xiao Yin.

Xiao Yin was startled, and he had to be on guard.

Click.

The palm of the wooden puppet slowly opened, and a hole slowly rotated out of the palm of the palm, and a roll of bamboo slips fell straight in front of Xiao Yin from the diameter of the hole.

Xiao Yin was stunned.

The wooden puppet looked up at Xiao Yin, first pointed at Xiao Yin, and then pointed to the bamboo slips on the ground.

Xiao Yin looked at this scene, his eyes flickered twice, and asked, "Are you asking me to pick it up?"

The wooden puppet did not respond.

Xiao Yin groaned for a few breaths, bending down somewhat cautiously, while attaching his perception to the bamboo slip, just in case.

However, nothing unusual happened, and Xiao Yin picked up the bamboo slip smoothly.

This bamboo slip is brown all over, a little cold to the touch, and a few small black ancient seal characters are engraved on it.

"Occult Puppet Control"

The five-character character is strange, and at a glance, it looks like five black villains in strange poses, which makes people secretly palpitate.

Xiao Yin was startled, looked at the wooden puppet and blurted out, "What is this?"

As soon as he spoke, Xiao Yin regretted a little, how could this wooden puppet speak?

Who knew that the next moment, Xiao Yin was a little stunned.

The wooden puppet flickered its candle-flame eyes, raised its right arm, and began to gesture in the air.

Xiao Yin was stunned for a moment, and then was surprised to find that the wooden puppet was actually writing in the air.

Xiao Yin was calm, carefully looked at the other party and wrote in the air:

"If you want to practice puppetry, you must first learn puppet control. ”

Xiao Yin's heart jumped, and he asked, "Dare to ask if you are a puppet under the master of the left hall?"

The wooden puppet does not react.

Xiao Yin asked again, "Where is the Zuo Hall Master?"

The wooden doll still didn't respond.

Xiao Yin pondered for a moment, and said in his heart: "It seems that this puppet will only passively accept instructions, these few words should be entered into it by someone in the method of puppet control, and then turn off the engine at the right time, urging the arm to write words in the air." This puppet can only be regarded as a high-level puppet at best, and it is still far from a real living puppet like Uncle Wanyan. ”

"You guessed it, it's just a low-level puppet. ”

A voice came from the Qi Mansion, it was the Hidden Fence.

Xiao Yin said secretly: "It seems that the secluded fence has been really staring at it very closely. ”

However, it was inevitable that Yu Huang noticed that this thought only flashed in Xiao Yin's mind, so Xiao Yin immediately changed his mind and asked, "It seems that the senior of Yu Huang knows a lot about puppets. ”

Youliang said: "After all, there was some intersection with Mo Zhai back then. For the art of ordinary mechas, the deity still has some eyesight. ”

Xiao Yin said: "Oh, it seems that I will have to consult with the seniors of Youhuan more in the future." ”

Youhuan said: "For you, the deity naturally will not hide his secrets. ”

Xiao Yin's eyebrows moved slightly, his eyes flashed slightly, he thanked him, and then said: "According to the predecessors of Youhuan, this wooden puppet suddenly appeared and gave me the technique of controlling the puppet, what happened?"

Yu Huang asked rhetorically, "What do you think?"

Xiao Yin said: "I'm afraid it has something to do with that mysterious Zuo Hall Master, but I don't understand why he wants to manipulate this puppet to do this? This "Xuanyu Puppet Control Technique" should be the secret book of the Ten Thousand Puppet Hall, in this way, wouldn't it have recognized my identity as a disciple of the Ten Thousand Puppet Hall? So you want to pass on this technique to me." It's just that since you are willing to admit it, why do you want to hide your head and show your tail so much, and be generous enough to see me directly, admit me into the court, and then pass on this technique to me? Why bother so much? ”

Yu Huang said: "That's right, I didn't expect that there is such a place hidden in this declining small sect, it's a bit interesting." What are you going to do next?"

Xiao Yin said: "Accept this secret book of puppet control first, and see how the situation is, this is an opportunity." As for the words of the Zuo Hall Master, since he still refuses to see me, then I don't force it, after all, cultivation is the first place now. Besides, with my current strength in the True Yuan Primal Realm plus you, even if this Zuo Hall Master wants to do something to me, he may not be able to succeed, so although this person must be guarded against, he can put it aside for the time being. ”

"It's possible." ”

Xiao Yin nodded, put the "Xuanyu Puppet Control Technique" into the box, and then spread his eyes, preparing to find the direction of the gate and leave.

However, just when Xiao Yin saw the direction of the gate clearly and walked towards the gate, the wooden puppet actually turned around and followed Xiao Yin.

Xiao Yin was stunned, looked at the puppet that followed him closely, and couldn't help but wonder: "What are you doing with me?"

The puppet naturally didn't answer, but a pair of candle flame eyes flickered slightly, looking at Xiao Yin motionless.

Yu Huang suddenly said, "It wants to follow you." ”

Xiao Yin said: "This ...... How come?"

"Although this puppet is not advanced, it is several levels higher than ordinary stupid puppets. Although he has no self-consciousness, he can strictly follow some complex instructions that have been designed for a long time. According to the deity, it is very likely that the person surnamed Zuo was afraid that you would not have a puppet to practice, so he directly let it follow you and let you practice puppet control. ”

Xiao Yin said: "If this is the case, the left hall master can be said to have a heart. ”

Yu Huang said: "Yes, now even the deity thinks it is a little interesting." ”

Xiao Yin said: "Since this is the case, then it is better to be respectful than to obey fate, just now from the point of view of the fight, the strength of this puppet is not bad, it is not only an arm to be by your side, but it is also excellent to practice puppet control techniques." ”

Saying that, Xiao Yin didn't care that the puppet couldn't understand human language, so he went straight to the wooden puppet and made an ancient Momen salute, and said, "Brother puppet, I will work for you in the future." ”

As soon as the words fell, the candle flame eyes of the wooden puppet shook slightly, and then he also crossed his arms in front of his chest and saluted Xiao Yin back.

Xiao Yin was surprised: "Could it be that you can actually understand some simple human language?"

Unfortunately, this time the wooden puppet did not respond.

"Don't think about it, you just triggered the puppet's command reflex just now." The so-called command reflex refers to the fact that the puppet or puppet can perceive the external world through the five senses imitated in the body, and then make corresponding fixed feedback for some specific events. This is also the core of the puppet or puppet's ability to perform various actions, and it is the key to embodying the ability of a puppeteer or puppeteer. Most of the slightly more advanced puppets or dolls will have a series of reflection instruction sets set up in their bodies. The higher the level of a puppet or puppet, the better it is crafted, and the more complex the number of reflex commands it contains. For example, this puppet should be set in the body, and anyone who meets the ancient ritual of Momen must return the reflex command. ”

Xiao Yin exclaimed, "The Momen Mecha Technique is really magical. ”

Youhuan snorted lightly and said, "It's not promising, what is this, you will see it in the future." It seems that this kind of doll is just an entry-level level. ”

Xiao Yinnuo said yes, and then looked at the wooden puppet slightly, and said: "Meeting is fate, then give you a name, just call you 'simple', how? Simple puppet, simply live, it's good." ”

Yu Huang suddenly sneered: "Childish." ”

Xiao Yin didn't get angry, nor did he pay attention to the disdain and ridicule in Yu Huang's sneer, just patted the "simple" shoulder of the doll and walked towards the door.
