Speaking of this, Bailing probably remembered this painful history and was silent for a while before continuing, "When the Phantom Gu appeared at the beginning, it was only a small piece and would avoid humans. They all appeared in the woods, and the targets were all animals. At that time, someone occasionally encountered the Phantom Gu, but no one believed it when he said it. Until the Phantom Gu regained his vitality with the essence and blood of the animals, he finally began to attack people in the blood domain."

"Many villages have been attacked by the Illusion Mist Gu. If the people attacked by the Illusion Mist Gu cannot escape from the Illusion in time, they will be trapped in the Illusion until they die. Every time the Illusion Mist Gu evacuated, all they left were mummies with no qi and blood."

Pei Zimo frowned and asked, "After we entered the blood domain, we saw many plants with red patterns. Are those bloodline Gu?"

Bailing nodded, "There are various insects in the Phantom Fog Gu, and Blood Nematode is one of them. Other insects will gradually die if there is no host after the Phantom Fog Gu retreats. However, the blood nematode is different. It can use anything as its host, flowers, plants, trees, rivers and land. Therefore, in the areas attacked by the Phantom Fog Gu, basically only the blood nematode survives. Thousands of years have passed, and the entire blood domain may have no place where the Phantom Fog Gu has not been to."

"But it's very strange." Pei Zimo said again, "We have been in the blood domain for a long time. At the beginning, even in the sunny day, we didn't encounter the illusion fog Gu. It was only after entering that village that we encountered the illusion fog Gu for the first time."

Bailing thought for a while before saying, "Have you ever stayed in the day?"

Pei Zimo shook his head, "We are rushing through the day because we have something to do."

"That's it." Bailing nodded, "There is another characteristic of this illusion fog Gu, which is that it will not attack people who are moving."

"This is really strange." Pei Zimo didn't say anything after he finished speaking.

Bailing looked at Chu Xingxuan, "So has the master and the old master told you about this illusion fog Gu?"

Of course I haven't said it, but Chu Xingxuan's face didn't change much, just said, "We came from the north, there is a mountain in the north. I saw that the plants and trees on the mountain were normal, and there was no bloodline Gu at all. The Phantom Gu probably hadn't been to that mountain, right?"

"That's the Holy Mountain!" Bailing stared at Chu Xingxuan with his eyes, "People in the Blood Domain are forbidden to go to the Holy Mountain!"

"When it's time to die, why bother with the holy mountain or not? It's pedantic." Chu Xingxuan shook his head speechlessly.

"But going to the Holy Mountain is also deadly." Bailing smiled bitterly, "Some people follow this rule, of course, some people must not follow it for life, but those who go to the Holy Mountain die faster."

He said, shook his head, "Outside the Holy Mountain is the most convenient route between the Blood Domain and the Outside. There are only a few people in the Blood Domain who are qualified to go out from the Holy Mountain and communicate with the outside world. The remaining people will die as long as they reach the Holy Mountain or leave the Blood Domain, and the death is even worse. People in the Blood Domain seem to have been cursed, and no one can leave here. Even those who are qualified to leave for a short time cannot leave the Blood Domain for too long."

"I think it may have nothing to do with curses." Chu Xingxuan shook his head, "There is a high probability that you have raised Gu since you were a child, or there is a Gu insect parasitized on you as soon as you were born, but you don't know. This Gu insect lives on something in the blood domain, and you usually can't feel it, but once you leave the blood domain, this Gu insect will attack."

"That's not impossible." Bailing sighed, "But we have lived in the blood domain since we were young, and we never thought of leaving here. As long as there is no illusion fog Gu, there will be no problem with our life here, so..." He said as he looked at Chu Xingxuan expectantly, hoping that he could bring them any good news.

Chu Xingxuan touched his chin, turned to look at Pei Zimo, and thought for a while before saying, "My master has told me too much, and I can't remember it for a while. But since it's a Gu, there is always a way to solve it. Moreover, I haven't finished reading the book he gave me yet. Maybe there are also records of the Illusion Mist Gu in this book. In this way, you can help us find a place to settle down first, and I'll recall my master's words."

Bailing was silent for a moment and agreed.

He stood up and took them to a room, which faced two wooden beds, each of which could sleep two or three people, and there were only some simple bedding items on the bed. "We are all simple here. The room in each household is not big, and there are no extra rooms. The few of them can only feel wronged here for the time being."

Although Chu Xingxuan was not satisfied, he could only nod, "But didn't you say before that the illusion fog Gu will only appear during the clear daytime? Why don't you go home to sleep at night?"

"We were still struggling back and forth at the beginning, but for so many years, we have become accustomed to hiding underground. Even if we return to the ground, we can't sleep well and we have to prepare to move down at any time. If there is any emergency, it will be troublesome if we don't have time to get off." After Bailing said that, he told the people to have a good rest and then left the room first.

After walking for a while, I met several people who were looking forward to it. "Village Chief, is this really our master?"

Bailing narrowed his eyes slightly, "There is something strange about these people. Ask a few people to guard the door and don't let them walk around. Go and inform the clan leader quickly and ask him to bring several elders here."

After Bailing left, Chu Xingxuan lay on the door and listened for a while before saying, "Bailing's words are not true. The medicine shop above is so clean. Some people must be cleaning it from time to time. Obviously, they cannot live here all the time."

Pei Zimo nodded and agreed, "That day we entered the medicine shop and were attacked by the Illusion Mist Gu, but Han Yu was alone in the car and didn't walk around. Why didn't the Illusion Mist Gu attack him? Moreover, when Han Yu arrived at the door of the medicine shop, the Illusion Mist Gu retreated. Either Han Yu had something to avoid for the Illusion Mist Gu, or... there were other hidden stories in it."

Chu Xingxuan turned around and sat on the bed, "This is not to settle down, it is clearly to imprison us here. But it is not easy for us to escape. Everyone can use Gu. It is too dangerous for us to be hard. Unless..." He took down the flute on his waist, "I can use this flute to control ten thousand Gu, so I will be afraid of nothing."

Not long after, Gui Qing and others came back one after another. The room was not spacious, and it became a little crowded when there were too many people. Chu Xingxuan couldn't stand it. He went out to discuss it for a long time. Even if he moved out the master's descendants, the other party would not buy it at all, so he said that there was only this empty room.

And Bailing didn't know what to do.

Chu Xingxuan sighed, glanced around the door, looked at the people who pretended to be busy with their own affairs, but were actually guarding them, and closed the door, "How is this the treatment of the master and the ancestors? This is clearly the treatment of the prisoner."
