Jiang Qiulin regretted asking this question.
He forgot that this was the guardian of the herb garden, a puppet, without any feelings, just doing everything according to the order left by the master of Fenglan Palace. Moreover, these puppets have a setting, that is, cultivators are not allowed 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. Those guards also stepped forward and protected him behind them. Even if they knew what it meant to fight with the puppet guards, they would still do their best to protect Jiang Qiulin. This is the duty of the guardian of the medical cultivators.
However, the puppet guard did not get angry because of Jiang Qiulin's questioning. He ignored Jiang Qiulin and didn't even look at Jiang Qiulin. Instead, he turned around and urged Gu Qingxi: "Come quickly." This behavior seemed to be in no mood to care about these trivial matters, and there were more important things to do.
Gu Qingxi nodded, followed the puppet guard and entered the herb garden.
Everyone watched Gu Qingxi enter the herb garden, but no one dared to question her, let alone chase her.
Jiang Haoning looked at Gu Qingxi's back with a confused look on his face, 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.
Luo Qingyao shook his head: "How should I know."
In fact, Luo Qingyao had already guessed that his apprentice's entry was related to the artifact, the small lotus platform. But can this be said in public? Of course not.
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 barrier is white, completely covering the inside, so that people outside cannot see what is happening inside.
The monks outside the herb garden saw this scene and started to talk about it.
"That female cultivator's luck is too good, isn't it?"
"What about the monk who went in first?"
"In short, they are both people with great luck this time. Their luck is really good."
"Well, I'm looking forward to them picking the herbs quickly, and the guards will let us in to collect a few herbs."
Every time the Fenglan Palace opens this herb garden, the puppet guards will indeed choose people with predestined relationships to come in and collect herbs, but they are not allowed to collect them at will. Usually, there are regulations on how many herbs to collect and what grade of herbs to collect.
Otherwise, if these monks were allowed to collect, this herb garden would have run out of herbs long ago.
Jiang Qiulin's face was a little dark, and he stared at the pavilion on the other side of the herb garden. He didn't understand why the puppet guards chose Gu Qingxi and the stupid monk with low cultivation.
At this moment, Gu Qingxi in the pavilion was looking at the two puppets with similar appearances in front of her in a daze. They were looking at her with a smile, and their eyes were... kind.
Kind? Yes, kind!
Gu Qingxi was even more confused.
Why did the two puppet guards look at her with the kind eyes that elders look at younger generations?
Looking at the kind eyes of the two puppet guards, Gu Qingxi's previous speculations came to her mind again. The puppet guards here may have their own thoughts and feelings!
"Qingxi, we meet again. We have heard about your affairs from Shanshan. I didn't expect that you would fall and reincarnate." One of the puppet guards said with a smile.
The other puppet guard was stroking Shanshan, the small lotus platform resting on his palm. At this time, he also looked up and said: "Qingxi, Shanshan has really grown up with you. You also kept your promise and brought her back to see us. You are very good."
Gu Qingxi: "...???" She was still confused except for her face. 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 was praised.
He Feiyuan stood aside and listened to these words. His brain had completely stopped working and he lost the ability to think. What did he hear? What did these words mean?
Gu Qingxi pondered for a while and said carefully: "Well, two seniors, I am indeed reincarnated, but some of my memories have not been restored. So I haven't remembered anything about Fenglan Secret Realm."
The two puppet guards looked at each other with clear eyes. It seemed that they finally understood why Gu Qingxi saw them in such a strange attitude.
"It's good like this, you can live a different life. Then we won't tell you about the past, wait until you recover your memory. You can go and pick 100 herbs here." One of the puppet guards said.
Gu Qingxi nodded: "Okay, thank you two seniors." She really couldn't remember anything about this place.
"Ascension soon." A puppet guard said with a smile. There was another sentence he didn't say, that if they ascended soon, they would be able to meet their master. The remnant soul left by the master here has dissipated, but before the remnant soul of the master dissipated, he became a close friend with Gu Qingxi who entered the secret realm, so he entrusted Shanshan to Gu Qingxi. At that time, they also liked Gu Qingxi very much and regarded Gu Qingxi as their own junior.
Gu Qingxi nodded: "I will work hard to become stronger." The end of the cultivators' cultivation is to ascend to heaven, and she is no exception.
At this moment, Gu Qingxi is very sure of one thing, that the two puppets in front of her have already had their own thoughts and feelings, and are no longer simple puppets.
Is this why Luo Qingyao said that the puppets here are far superior to the puppets 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 hair and beard who stood with me at that time."
The two puppets thought for a while and said, "Are you talking about the boy who used a magic weapon to cover up his true appearance and cultivation?"
Gu Qingxi nodded, and was secretly surprised in her heart. She didn't expect that the two puppet seniors could see through Luo Qingyao's true identity at a glance. The magic weapon's concealment was completely useless in front of them.
The two puppets shook their heads: "I don't know him."
Gu Qingxi murmured: "That's strange, then why is he so sure that there is a puppet made by a noble family outside that is far inferior to the one here?"
The two puppets looked at each other, guessed in their hearts, and said: "Maybe, he has met our eldest brother."
"Eldest brother?" Gu Qingxi was puzzled.
One of the puppets said, "We three are the first puppets made by the master, and we are three brothers. The eldest brother has been traveling and looking around these years. We two 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 come back to get the rest after you successfully made a puppet, but you never came back." A puppet handed Gu Qingxi a jade slip.
Gu Qingxi looked at the jade slip and asked, "What is this?"
