The Liu family, who live at the junction of Guizhou and Sichuan, are actually a Miao nationality with a very obvious Sinicization.Although she still lives in the depths of the mountains near the mountains and rivers, she is no longer wearing exaggerated silver jewelry in Wendy's impression.

"We don't wear bright national costumes unless it is an important festival." Aman, the woman who takes care of her daily life, speaks fluent northern dialect.Transportation is not a problem for the wizard. She went to Tianjin to study when she was young.

Most of the time, Liujiazhai is like an antique Han people's village.After Wendy was able to get up from the bed, she often walked around the edge of the village.The white mist that seems to be absent shrouds the nearby mountains and forests, and it often rains here. The light rain is very similar to the spring in the south of the Yangtze River.Small red and gold flowers pop up from the ground after the rain, standing out against the lush greenery.

Tom has been acquainted with the villagers for a long time, and he has a set of methods to gain favorability with all humans.When Wendy was still in the hospital bed, she ate the pheasant that Tom brought from the mountains.Not to mention now, the warm spring is coming, and the dining table is becoming more and more abundant.

March is the traditional Gu raising festival of the Liu family.

Miao wizards raise Gu, but it is not the kind of Gu that ordinary people say in legends.

"There are tens of thousands of bugs killing each other in the same jar, and only one is left in the end. This kind of story is spread by people in the Central Plains." Aman said to Wendy, "Maybe someone did this thousands of years ago. Okay, but that’s fine, according to what you say, it’s black magic, just like refining a living corpse.”

The Liu family's Gu is a serious school of magic.To put it bluntly, they are all kinds of magical parasites.They are too microscopic to be classified as magical creatures, and it is not appropriate to classify them as herbs, so Wendy still calls these parasites "Gu" just like the locals.

Most creatures in nature reproduce in spring, and Gu is no exception.Therefore, there is a festival of raising Gu in Miaojiang.The worm eggs are neatly arranged in the artificially woven nest, and they are baptized by magic power amidst the prayers of the whole village. After three to fourteen days, they hatch into larvae.If the specific process has to be compared, it is like a large-scale silkworm breeding activity.

The most miraculous of Gu is the Gu insect that can affect the nervous system.

There are indeed Gus that can manipulate living people, such as red thread Gu and katydid Gu.Ordinary people have no resistance to the magic of these Gu.Tom found a Muggle who strayed into the mountains for an experiment, and finally came to the conclusion that it was like an enhanced version of the Imperius Curse, with less after-effects.

The Muggle was frightened a lot, and was sent to the nearest town down the mountain after being inflicted with "Forgetting Everything".The wife of the head of the Liu family, a soft-hearted Muggle old lady, couldn't bear it, and put two silver bars in his pocket.

The Gu raising festival ended, and when the Gu worms were in place, Wendy's treatment began.

They used about a dozen kinds of Gu insects to recuperate Wendy's spirit problem.In practice, 90% of the spiritual problems are related to the nervous system, and the remaining 10% are related to the mysterious "soul".The head of the Liu family didn't want to say more, so Wendy didn't ask any more.

The only thing she knows is that a white translucent unknown Gu worm can mend the soul.After all, as a patient, I still have some feelings.

Tom was with her the whole time.

Every kind of Gu worm that got into Wendy's body, Tom had to test it on himself first.His nervous appearance made Aman and the other women burst into laughter.

"We won't harm your wife." Patriarch Liu said, "We are not those isolated tribes deep in the Miaoling Mountains. The face of the Bai family and the face of the Yixi people must be considered. We I still have to live in the Chinese wizarding world."

Tom was still anxious, and this anxiety continued until they left Miao Village for Changbai Mountain.He didn't even feel relieved until Wendy fully recovered.

"I have an unreal feeling." Mr. Riddle murmured while hugging Mrs. Riddle, "We succeeded. We really found a way to cure you."
