Jiang Qiulin regretted it after asking this question.
He forgot that this was the caretaker of the Herb Garden, a puppet, without any emotions, and just acted according to the orders left by the master of Fenglan Palace. Moreover, these puppets also have a setting that does not allow the monks to question their decisions.
And his question just now was almost questioning these puppet guards.
Jiang Qiulin subconsciously took a step back and approached his guards. The guards also stepped forward to protect him behind them. Even though they know what it means to fight against the puppet guards, they will still protect Jiang Qiulin with all their strength. This is your duty as a guardian of medicine.
However, the puppet guard did not get angry because of Jiang Qiulin's questioning. He ignored Jiang Qiulin and did not even look at Jiang Qiulin. Instead, he turned to urge Gu Qingxi: "Come quickly." This behavior seemed to indicate that he was not in the mood to pay attention to these trivial matters. , there are more important things to do.
Gu Qingxi nodded and followed the puppet guard into the herb garden.
Everyone watched as Gu Qingxi entered the herb garden, but no one dared to question her, let alone catch up.
Jiang Haoning looked at Gu Qingxi's back in confusion, then turned to look at Luo Qingyao, and whispered: "Qingyao, do you know what's going on?"
After all, the first person to enter was Luo Qingyao's apprentice, so Jiang Haoning wanted to ask Luo Qingyao if he knew anything about it.
Luo Qingyao shook his head: "How would I know."
In fact, Luo Qingyao had already guessed that the apprentice's entry was related to the artifact Little Lotus Terrace. But can this be said in public? That's definitely not possible.
After Gu Qingxi entered the herb garden, the fence door of the herb garden closed automatically.
Gu Qingxi followed the puppet guard to the pavilion at the other end of the herb garden.
As soon as Gu Qingxi entered, a puppet guard waved his hand, and a barrier suddenly appeared, covering the pavilion. And this kind of barrier is white, completely covering the inside, so that people outside can't see what's going on inside.
The monks outside the herb garden started talking when they saw this scene.
"Isn't the female cultivator's opportunity great?"
"What happened to the monk who entered first?"
"In short, they both have great opportunities this time. They are really lucky."
"Oh, I'm just hoping that after the two of them quickly select the herbs, the guard can let us in to collect a few herbs."
Every time the Fenglan Palace opens this herb garden, the puppet guards will indeed choose people who are destined to come in to collect herbs, but they are not allowed to collect them. Usually there are regulations on how many plants to collect and what grade of herbs to collect.
Otherwise, if these monks were allowed to collect it, the herb garden would have run out of herbs.
Jiang Qiulin's face was a little dark, and he stared in the direction of the pavilion in the herb garden. He didn't understand why the puppet guard chose Gu Qingxi and that stupid monk with low cultivation level.
At this moment, Gu Qingxi, who was in the pavilion, was looking at the two similar-looking puppets in front of her with some confusion. The two of them were looking at her with smiles and...kindness in their eyes.
kindly? Yes, kind!
Gu Qingxi was even more confused.
Why did the two puppet guards look at her with the kind of kind eyes an elder would look at a junior?
Looking at the kind eyes of the two puppet guards, Gu Qingxi's previous guesses came to mind again. The puppet guards here may already have their own thoughts and feelings!
"Qing Xi, we meet again. We have heard about you from Shanshan. I didn't expect you to die and be reincarnated." One of the puppet guards said with a smile.
Another puppet guard was caressing Shanshan, the little lotus flower standing in his palm. At this time, he also raised his head and said, "Qing Xi, Shanshan has really grown up with you. You also keep your promise and bring her back to see us. Yes, you are very good."
Gu Qingxi: "...???" She looked confused and confused. The two puppets called her name so kindly, especially the last sentence "You are very good", which made Gu Qingxi feel like a child who had been praised.
He Feiyuan stood aside and listened to these words, his mind completely shut down and he lost the ability to think. What did he hear? What do these words mean?
Gu Qingxi considered it for a moment and said cautiously: "Well, two seniors, I have indeed been reincarnated, but some of my memories have not been restored. So I haven't remembered anything about Fenglan Secret Realm yet."
The two puppet guards looked at each other with understanding. It seemed that he finally understood why Gu Qingxi saw them with such a strange attitude.
"That's fine, you can live a different life. Then we won't tell you the past, and wait until you recover your memory. You can pick a hundred herbs here." One of the puppet guards said .
Gu Qingxi nodded: "Okay, thank you two seniors." She really couldn't remember everything about this place.
"Ascend as soon as possible." A puppet guard said with a smile. There was another sentence that he didn't say. As soon as they ascended, they would be able to meet their master. The remnant soul of the master left here has dissipated, but before the remnant soul of the master dissipated, he became an old friend with Gu Qingxi who entered the secret realm, so he entrusted Shanshan to Gu Qingxi. And they also liked Gu Qingxi very much at that time and regarded Gu Qingxi as their junior.
Gu Qingxi nodded: "I will work hard to become stronger." The monks will reach the end of their cultivation, and she is no exception.
At this moment, Gu Qingxi was extremely certain of one thing. The two puppets in front of him had already had their own thoughts and feelings, and were no longer mere puppets.
Is this why Luo Qingyao said that the puppets here are far superior to those made by that puppet family?
Thinking of this, Gu Qingxi asked: "Two seniors, do you know that person? He was the old man with white beard and hair who was standing with me at that time."
The two puppets thought for a moment and said, "Are you talking about the kid who used magic weapons to hide his true appearance and cultivation?"
Gu Qingxi nodded, secretly surprised in her heart. Unexpectedly, these two puppet seniors could see through Luo Qingyao's true identity at a glance. The concealment of the magical weapon was completely useless in front of them.
Both puppets shook their heads: "I don't know them."
Gu Qingxi murmured: "That's strange, then why is he so sure that there is a puppet made by a famous family outside that is far inferior to the one here?"
The two puppets looked at each other and made a guess in their minds, saying, "Maybe, he has met our eldest brother."
"Brother?" Gu Qingxi was confused.
One of the puppets said: "The three of us are the first puppets made by the master, and we are three brothers. The eldest brother will travel and look around over the years. The two of us like to stay in the secret realm. Maybe he has met our eldest brother. .”
Gu Qingxi suddenly realized.
"By the way, this is for you. I only gave you the first one because you said you would wait until you successfully made the puppet to get the next one, but you never came again." A puppet handed a piece to Gu Qingxi Jade slips.
Gu Qingxi looked at the jade slip and asked, "What is this?"
