Looking at the stern ghost who was bound in the formation, Yang Shao and Xiao Qin both began to doubt life.
Why did things go so well! They were all ready to give their lives here, thinking that they would have to pay bloody sacrifices to restrain the ghosts... In the end, the matter was solved by just being beaten by Gu Wuji? !

They all feel as if they are dreaming now.
Yang Shao thought that Gu Wuji was still in a state of amnesia, how terrible it would be if this person still had memory! Fortunately, he hadn't done anything to stumble upon Gu Wuji before.
Gu Wuji sat next to Li Gui with a fierce look on his face, "Tell me honestly, who made you do such illegal and criminal things! Do you know how sorry you are for Young Master Yang's trust in you? ?"
Yang Shao fell into silence for a while, and he finally realized that Gu Wuji seemed to regard this Specter as his bodyguard, and he seemed to have added him to some bitter plot... This restraint imposed on Gu Wuji also It's so scary! Seeing that Xiao Qin next to him was shocked and was about to regain his memory, but Gu Wuji still believed that there were no ghosts in the world!
Li Gui was also stunned, and even felt wronged. He had never seen this person before, how could he be sorry for his trust
But in the end, this Specter's mentality is that of a child. After being beaten by Gu Wuji before, he is also afraid of Gu Wuji. However, it also realizes that Gu Wuji is actually a good person, so he doesn't feel so bad.
Li Gui honestly explained that he was well-behaved and something, saying that he had been locked in a dark place before, and his whole body was in pain, and then he suddenly got out and was free in the scope of these two houses. action.
Originally, when it saw the living people of Gu Wuji, it felt that it was its own chance. It might be completely free by swallowing the souls of these living people, but God knows these living people... especially the Gu inside. No plan, it is so ferocious, more terrifying than ghosts.
Young Shao felt what was revealed in the other party's words, and immediately asked: "When did you escape?"
Li Gui was a little puzzled, "It was not too long ago."
"Sure enough." Young Shao's face sank, "This village chief must have wanted to use us to do something, so he deliberately let us come to this house."
Gu Wuji seemed to understand the meaning, but he didn't expect that the village chief was still involved in the grudges of the wealthy and powerful family on Yang Shao's side. This village is really dangerous.
"Then how is your companion now?" Gu Wuji asked, he remembered that Young Master Yang had two bodyguards... and secretly didn't know how many people wanted to harm Young Master Yang.
Li Gui thought Gu Wuji asked about the other six ghosts that were sealed, and immediately said: "I can feel their breath, they also woke up, in other parts of this village... and the most frightening one. , it also seems to be…”
The two were obviously talking about chickens and ducks, but the topic was strangely connected.
"That's it." Gu Wuji's face sank as he thought in his heart, "I'll just wake up and borrow some transportation to leave the village and go outside for help. There's probably no safe place in this village."
After that, Gu Wuji continued to leave the bound Specter here, and called the other two to go back to sleep.
Yang Shao and Xiao Qin walked back to the hall in a daze, thinking back to what Li Gui had explained before. In such a terrifying situation, their hearts should be filled with haze, but when they think of the harmonious picture of Gu Wuji and Li Gui's dialogue, they feel that there is nothing...
In short, it was too shocking, the two of them couldn't fall asleep at all, but were thinking randomly in their minds.
As for Gu Wuji, he fell asleep the moment he lay on the ground, and nothing could stop him from falling asleep quickly.
No one noticed that not only did the mist outside the house not dissipate, but it seemed to be thicker, and there were countless ghosts hidden in it, making the scalp tingle.
A figure holding an umbrella slowly walked through the fog, and the other ghosts retreated in horror as if they had encountered some natural enemy. The figure turned his head to see where Gu Wuji was in the house, then turned and left.
Even if these lonely ghosts don't have much sanity, when they look at this back, they unconsciously put on their faces with respect.
------------
The next day, the villagers who delivered the breakfast were surprised to find that everyone in the house was doing well, especially the careless, in good spirits and the fact that they didn't bother at all at night.
Yang Shao and Xiao Qin had dark circles under their eyes, which looked very difficult.
Although Xiao Qin didn't completely recover his memory, he also remembered some things about dealing with ghosts, but the more he did, the more he felt that Gu Wuji was cheating.
In short, both of them have probably accepted the fact that Gu Wuji is a terrible man.
As for the Specter that was originally bound behind the house has disappeared, and only some debris is left in place, and no one knows what happened.
Gu Wuji thought that this matter could not be delayed, and said everything that he had guessed. Of course, taking into account Young Master Yang's mood, he did not say anything about the grudges of the rich and powerful, but said that there seems to be a strange mold in this village that can infect people, and those infected will have hallucinations of seeing ghosts... and the village chief still Very problematic, seems to have blocked the village for something.
Yang Shao and Xiao Qin: "..." Do you really still think it's an illusion
Although the other two thought it was something miraculous, they also realized that this village was unusual, and did not question Gu Wuji's words, but said that they would be careful.
"Today I'm going to go to a villager's house near the house where I lived the day before yesterday to borrow transportation to leave." Gu Wuji said.
Gu Wuji's proposal did not get everyone's approval, and the other two did not experience strange things personally, and always felt that it should be a misunderstanding.
"The two of us are going to see the old man who was introduced by the village chief who can make coffins today." Duan Hongbo said, "It should be fine."
Gu Wuji couldn't stop them, thinking that it should be no problem to bring people back quickly.
Yang Shao and Xiao Qin certainly didn't agree, but they felt an unprecedented sense of security in Gu Wuji, and they still had the courage to leave Gu Wuji's side... What's more, the family the day before yesterday was also one of the seven houses. There might be something to investigate.
So the two of them both agree with Gu Wuji very much on the surface, saying that they are willing to help with anything.
In this way, the people divided into two groups in the village.
The village is quite large, and it doesn't seem so gloomy during the day. There are still a lot of villagers, but they don't have much contact with the outside world, and it seems a little strange in all aspects.
Originally, the villagers were very resistant to these outsiders, but after all, Gu Wushang was quite good, and began to help out in various ways in the village.
To be honest, Young Master Yang and Xiao Qin were both shocked. They didn't expect Gu Wuji to be so kind and help people to farm! And his strength is too amazing.
... At first, others still wanted to reject Gu Wuji, but Gu Wuji did a really good job, and he always greeted people with a smile, making it difficult for people to treat him coldly.
In this way, Gu Wuji also gained the favor of many villagers and got some inside information about the village.
"The family you lived in the day before yesterday was also a sinner. About ten years ago, some rumors suddenly appeared, saying that as long as you make sacrifices to the ghosts in that house, your wishes can be fulfilled... This must be false!" The villagers had a complicated and somewhat fearful look on their faces. If he hadn't thought it was really good to be reckless, he wouldn't want to say such a thing.
"But they really want a son, so they put the eldest daughter... We don't know very well, and we haven't seen the eldest daughter since then. The little girl cried and called that miserable, but she won't be able to see her sister in the future. Nothing more."
Hearing the villager's words, the three people's expressions were different, but they all realized that what the villager said was very important.
"It's so sinful. They said they got lost. Who in this village doesn't know the real inside story! In the end, I didn't give birth to a son, and I lost my life yesterday. This is also the revenge of the ghost." The villagers' tone was very sigh .
Gu Wuji also sighed, he remembered that he saw mold in the house that night. It is estimated that the couple was infected with mold and hallucinated, thinking that the eldest daughter would commit suicide when she came back.
Superstition is so tragic, such a tragedy could have been avoided completely. I don't know what happened to the girl, she looks like a minor, and I don't know if I can help.
"Ten years ago," Yang Shao sharply noticed the problem, "I heard that the first sacrifices in this village were decades ago. Can they do this?"
The look of fear on the faces of the villagers intensified, and when they saw that there was no one around, they whispered: "It is said that as long as a replacement sacrifice can be found, the original sacrifice can be freed, and it can even help others realize it. Wish... But I didn't even think about it, after all, it's all a ghost."
Yang Shao's heart suddenly burst. In this way, there may not only be seven ghosts in this village, but an unknown number of ghosts.
"It turns out that, thank you very much." Gu Wuji thanked him again, and then asked the other party where he could leave the village as quickly as possible.
The villagers shook their heads and sighed again, "You came at such a bad time. Before and after the event, it was impossible for this village to leave... If you want to live, you should keep a low profile these days, probably not. what happened."
"That event, the village chief seems to have also mentioned it." Gu Wuji asked, "But he didn't make it clear, what exactly did he do?"
"Presumably you all know the rumors. It is said that the seal composed of the seven sacrifices will be loosened every once in a while, so the village will hold a ceremony. It used to be a very important ceremony, but now it is just an entertainment activity. People in the village are actors and act out what happened back then."
This is quite normal, except for the scary legends, other activities are no different from other places. Gu Wuji and others can fully understand it.
Only Yang Shao knew that the day this ceremony was held was the last day of the dungeon, and they didn't have much time to investigate in this dungeon.
The villager added: "Although it is already an entertainment activity, there will always be some problems before and after each activity... Especially those of you who are outsiders, it is very dangerous. There was an accident, and he died on the way, and no one wanted to come after the name spread."
"No wonder this village can't develop tourism." Xiao Qin couldn't help but whisper. Originally, there were such rumors, and the village chief had another troubled face, but now there is still no one coming. It was quite abnormal at first.
"And I heard that." The villagers took a deep breath. "This time there are not enough actors. It seems that the village chief intends to let outsiders participate, mainly the actor who plays the non-local man. The requirements for the face are particularly high..."
Both Yang Shao and Xiao Qin's expressions changed. Of course they remembered that in the legend, it was because the woman was going to run away with a man, but they didn't expect the man to be a scumbag.
Under such circumstances, the person who plays this scumbag must surely die!
And the meaning of the villagers seems to be pointing at Gu Wuji. The two were about to find a way to separate the relationship, but they saw Gu Wuji's face full of interest.
