The guard replied again: "News came from the Red Fox Tribe that after he encountered a flood, he could not return the same way, so he had to temporarily return to the Red Fox Tribe for refuge."
"After learning the news that Jiang Yue was kidnapped, he suddenly betrayed the family and took away most of the family's property. He left a letter saying that he had gone to Ghost Lake to look for the mermaids. Legend has it that mermaids only recognize money, not people. They can use their singing to bewitch people and are very powerful helpers. The current young clan leader is even a red-level being."
After listening to it, it turned out that he was the only one who was not only poisoned but also defeated the snake beastman who abducted Yue'er, causing Yue'er to be in danger and was in a coma for so long.

Because so many people disappeared or died mysteriously in the beginning, that area was named "Ghost Lake". It is very mysterious and is considered by the orcs to be a forbidden zone for life and a place cursed by the Beast God.
Until a lucky orc was inadvertently lured by the singing and entered the Ghost Lake area, but the salt and pearls he carried with him were loved by the mermaids and he saved his life. Then the truth about the Ghost Lake became known to everyone.
That person was the ancestor of the Red Fox Tribe who made his fortune by selling salt.
Therefore, apart from the Red Fox Tribe, no one knows the specific situation of Ghost Lake, and no one knows the preferences of the mermaids.
