The two maids waiting outside the hall door couldn't help but secretly look back at the situation inside the hall.
Although they were curious, they did not share their questions.
Being able to look back is the limit of what they can do.
This hall is only used when there are major events. However, no major events have occurred in the Ghost Hall for a long time.
When Yun Wan handled affairs on weekdays, he usually called his soul girls to the library. At most, he would personally go to the duty room where their maids were.
Lu Qing walked around the hall three times.
He carefully examined each piece of art displayed there, blowing away the dust from several, revealing their original appearance. He also knocked on the walls and pillars, confirming their quality, which was excellent, with no holes or bulges. He also surveyed the stone base, noting some scars left by sharp weapons or magic...
Finally, Lu Qing took out a set of tea sets and started to make tea for his own entertainment.
For Lu Qing, watching the tea leaves swell and stretch under the nourishment of water, restoring their original color and stimulating their aroma is a unique pleasure.
Feeling the different effects of different spiritual teas also gives you a sense of anticipation like opening a blind box.
"You two."
Lu Qing suddenly spoke towards the palace gate.
The two maids turned around and asked respectfully, "What are your instructions, Sect Master Lu?"
"Come and have a cup of tea."
Lu Qing placed two specially made teacups.
The two maids initially declined, but eventually, at Lu Qing's invitation, they came to Lu Qing's tea table.
One of them was called Maid Si and the other was called Maid Yi.
These names were all given by Yun Wanqi.
From the moment they were born and gained consciousness, Yun Wan had been the mistress of the Ghost Hall. Even as they grew to this point, witnessing the passing of familiar elders and the birth of several generations of younger ones, Yun Wan remained their mistress.
In their hearts, and even in the hearts of their predecessors, Yun Wan has always been a supreme being full of majesty.
She possesses supreme magical powers, presiding over all matters within the Ghost Palace, manipulating the world's affairs at her fingertips. Under her leadership, the Ghost Palace continues to grow stronger.
Therefore, they also had the same respect, or even... fear, for Lu Qing, who could chat and laugh with Yun Wan and even showed full respect to Yun Wan.
Even Shizukuka's repeated explanations could not change this feeling.
After all, although they are in the Ghost Hall, they can still know the major events happening in the world through the Ghost Hall's intelligence agency.
This stereotype has been reversed today.
It was indeed as Shizuku had said, the leader of the Cangxia Sect was an easygoing person. Being in his presence made people feel very relaxed, just like basking in the winter sun.
At first, the maid Si even thought she was under some kind of hallucination.
Following Lu Qing's initiative to strike up a conversation, the two of them also began to actively answer Lu Qing's questions with their own views and opinions.
Lu Qing's questions and the right measure were also just right.
These questions did not involve the secrets of the Ghost Palace, but were just some daily trivial matters.
For example, the two people’s daily entertainment and the interesting things they encounter.
Or, there are some questions that seem outrageous but make them feel very familiar.
For example, what does different spirits taste like?
Similar questions made the two feel Lu Qing's respect for them.
Ordinary cultivators, or living beings, are mostly hostile and afraid of soul maidens. After all, the soul maidens of the Ghost Hall will feed on their souls. But Lu Qing doesn't care about this at all.
This kind of indifference is completely different from those who previously tried to cooperate with the Ghost Palace and felt that they were courting disaster or aiding and abetting evil.
Sect Master Lu’s realm is much higher!
He placed himself at a level above all living things, quietly observing the course of worldly affairs!
After drinking a few cups of spiritual tea, the two maids also felt very happy.
Gradually, he began to ask Lu Qing questions actively.
Lu Qing also answered them one by one.
"Master Lu, what is your relationship with our mistress?" Maid Yi asked the question that had been on her mind for a long time without hesitation.
Maid Si's expression changed slightly, and she stretched out her foot to kick Maid Yi. She opened her mouth, but for a moment, she didn't know how to save the situation.
Is this kind of question something you can ask casually?!
After blurting out the question, Maid Yi immediately regretted it.
Lu Qing's easygoing nature actually made her a little too proud of herself!
Lu Qing smiled first.
This smile made the two people, who were nervous and thought that trouble came from their words, feel much more at ease instantly.
But then, Lu Qing was stunned again.
Although they have experienced many things together, neither of them seems to have taken the initiative to talk about this aspect.
It should be... that kind of relationship already, right?
Or is it that according to the customs of this world, we have to make it more formal?
Seeing Lu Qing lost in thought, the two maids became nervous again.
"secret."
In the end, Lu Qing gave a sly smile and simply ignored the question.
At night.
The maids also changed shifts.
Soul maidens follow the same routines as ordinary monks, requiring rest. Their duties within the temple are also arranged in shifts. The duties of handmaidens are more complex than those of servants and wandering maidens, and their working hours vary depending on their position.
