Looking at Gu Qingxi's "kind" smile, not to mention Lin Wanli, even they were so frustrated that they wanted to die: What kind of world is this? Why did Gu Qingxi encounter all the good things? She made a lot of money, but they couldn't even think of drinking a sip of soup.
Ignoring their resentful eyes, Gu Qingxi continued to move forward.
If Shen Mengli is really no longer in the world, whoever is lucky enough to take these herbs left behind can take them away. Even if Lin Wanli and others get some benefits, Gu Qingxi doesn't care. After all, the old man has suffered a lot, giving him a little sweetness is just a comfort. But since
Shen Mengli is still alive, how can these herbs be allowed to be touched by outsiders. If
it weren't for the fact that those tenth-grade herbs were too old and their vitality had reached the end, it would be a waste to leave them there without picking them. Gu Qingxi actually didn't want to do it.
After passing through the garden, there was another gate in front.
Lin Wanli subconsciously paused. Once bitten by a snake, he is afraid of the rope for ten years. Now he is scared when he sees the gate.
Gu Qingxi was of course not worried at all. She went straight to the door and looked at the runes on it.
Unlike the first gate, this gate was really equipped with a defensive formation. Although she knew very well that this defensive formation was prepared for Lin Wanli and others, she was still very curious about the interesting way of playing that Qingtong mentioned.
This time Gu Qingxi was stumped.
As expected of the demon spirit who was best at borrowing the power of heaven and earth, she recognized every rune that Qingtong carved on the door, but she couldn't understand how to put them together to form a formation. She
only felt that this formation seemed to have something in common with the formations she knew, but they were also very different.
In short, after looking at it for a long time, Gu Qingxi was still confused and didn't understand what kind of formation it was.
"Fellow Daoist Gu, have you figured out the principles of the formation? If not, why not let me take a look." Seeing that the runes instead of the beasts were engraved on the door, Lin Wanli finally felt relieved and followed.
He was just one step slower, so Gu Qingxi got the tenth-grade herbs first. The more he thought about it, the more unwilling he felt, and the more he regretted it. He didn't want to let Gu Qingxi get ahead again this time.
"Okay, Elder Lin, please take a look too." Gu Qingxi stepped aside.
Lin Wanli quickly moved closer, opened his eyes wide, and looked at the runes on the door intently.
But even Gu Qingxi couldn't understand it, so how could he see anything? His eyes were almost popping out, but his eyes were getting more and more confused.
After half an hour, Lin Wanli rubbed his eyes and finally looked away helplessly.
"Fourth Elder, is this formation difficult to break?" Lin Yuheng asked.
"Well, it's very difficult." Lin Wanli nodded.
It's more than difficult. He didn't understand what this formation was all about, and he had no idea how to break it.
To say it's difficult is just flattering himself.
"Then, do you want to try to force the door open?" Lin Yuheng asked.
"Okay, you try?" Lin Wanli glanced at him unhappily.
Don't you see how badly I'm injured? You still want to force the door open? If you want to die, go and kill yourself, don't drag me down with you.
"Uh..." Lin Yuheng looked at the fourth elder's hand, which had just stopped bleeding and barely recovered from the chicken claw, and decisively gave up the unrealistic idea.
"Fourth elder, what should we do then? We can't just wait for the formation to open by itself, right?" Lin Yuheng asked later.
Imagining the beautiful scene of Gu Qingxi asking him for help and kneeling down to apologize to him, he was expectant, excited, and impatient. He couldn't wait any longer, and of course he didn't want to waste time like this.
"Well, let me think about it again. I can always think of a way." Lin Wanli said vaguely.
After all, he is the fourth elder of the Lin family. He didn't want to admit in front of Lin Yuheng and several accompanying disciples that he had no way to deal with this formation, so he could only swell his face and pretend to be rich.
Hearing Lin Wanli say this, Gu Qingxi couldn't help but look at him with pity.
If Lin Wanli had a little self-knowledge and retreated at this point, he could still escape. But he insisted on staying, wouldn't that just fulfill Qingtong's wish?
If a person wants to die, it's really impossible to stop him.
However, after accompanying Lin Wanli to this day, she still didn't see the mystery of this formation, let alone how Lin Wanli would die.
"Qingtong, what is this formation all about?" Gu Qingxi was not interested in wasting time with Lin Wanli anymore. She focused her consciousness on the gate and asked with her voice transmission.
"It's very simple. This formation can be opened by reciting a spell." A cheerful child's voice sounded in my mind, and I was eager to try it out.
"It can be opened by reciting a spell?" Gu Qingxi was stunned. She had never heard of such a strange formation in the world of cultivation.
Even if the formation set up by the sound cultivators was at most opened with a specific music or melody, the essence of the formation did not change. How could there be a formation that was completely opened by a spell?
"Yes, I heard about this formation from that very interesting world. It is completely different from the formation here. It can only be opened with a special spell." Qingtong explained.
At the end, she added regretfully: "I originally wanted to go and find out what the formation looks like, but there is no time. I can only set up one according to what I heard and imagined. I don't know if the spell will work. Qingxi, try it quickly."
"What spell?" Hearing her say this, Gu Qingxi also became curious.
"Open sesame." Qingtong replied.
"..." Gu Qingxi's forehead suddenly had several black lines, and she finally guessed where the interesting place Qingtong was talking about was.
Only in that place could there be such a strange spell and such a strange formation.
However, aren't those all made up in fairy tales?
Children are children after all, and they like this kind of fairy tale.
Fortunately, she didn't have time to look for it, otherwise she wouldn't be able to find it even if she looked for ten thousand years.
Oh, by the way, Qingtong knew what licking a dog meant, and she must have learned it from that place.
"Read it, Qingxi, read it quickly." Seeing that Gu Qingxi didn't speak, Qingtong urged excitedly.
"Okay, then I'll try." Gu Qingxi felt as if she had returned to the kindergarten and the "good times" of playing games with a group of children.
Resisting the strong sense of shame in her heart, Gu Qingxi opened her lips slightly: "Open sesame."
After the spell was recited, the door did not move at all.
Of course, it
didn't move at all. It was originally a fairy tale for children to have fun. It would be strange if the spell was effective. "Strange, why is it useless?" Qingtong's puzzled voice sounded in his mind.
"Qingtong, the fairy tale you heard is fake." Gu Qingxi explained patiently.
