Chapter 480 Map of the Underworld
"Isn't it possible? The difference is whether to go farther or closer."
Lin Han looked around the dilapidated house.
Very broken.
Spider webs were everywhere. There were two rooms, and there wasn't even a bed in any of them. There were also several holes in the roof of the broken house.
He couldn't help but think of the house he and Tan Tai Jing rented when they were in Chiyang City.
"It's not impossible. If you want to go, no one can stop you." Jiang Xi glanced at Lin Han and said meaningfully, "Occasionally there are undead like you who don't know how to live or die, but their final fate is that nine hundred and ninety-nine out of a thousand die."
"What about the rest?" Lin Han asked.
Perhaps it was Jiang Xi's frankness that made Lin Han feel very comfortable and natural when chatting with her.
He had never gotten along so well with anyone before.
Perhaps, Jiang Xi, like him, is a very lonely "person".
"The rest? They all became very powerful undead."
"Well, that's exactly what I wanted."
Lin Han smiled.
The path of spiritual practice is inherently against the will of heaven, and the sword he cultivated was destined to experience countless life-and-death battles.
"Where do you want to go?"
Jiang Xi leaned against a pillar and asked curiously.
She really couldn't understand why people would go out to die when this city was so safe.
"...The River of the Underworld." Lin Han said.
"what!"
When she heard the word "River of the Underworld", Jiang Xi was shocked, and then she looked at Lin Han in shock.
"You actually want to go to that place! Do you know that it's very dangerous? None of us will go there!"
Seeing that Lin Han didn't respond, she asked tentatively, "Besides, the road is too dangerous. Are you sure you want to go?"
Lin Han nodded. "Didn't you say I don't know whether to live or die? But I hope I won't be the one to be devoured."
He had to go to the River of the Underworld.
Because he wants to find the red spider lily to save the sword spirit.
Without the red spider lily, the sword spirit with a damaged soul will never be able to wake up, and it is even possible that the soul will dissipate with the passage of time.
Jiang Xi looked at Lin Han deeply for a long time before asking, "I want to know, what are you going there for? If you go to the River of the Underworld, there is a high possibility that you will not be able to come back."
"Looking for the red spider lily."
Lin Han said truthfully, "I have a companion who needs red spider lily to wake up."
"Higanbana?!"
Jiang Xi's face once again showed a look of deep shock.
It seemed that no one would have thought that Lin Han would disregard his life and death just for the red spider lily.
Jiang Xi's unusual reaction made Lin Han's heart move, "Why, have you heard of it?"
At this moment, Jiang Xi's words were a little stammering, "You, you, are you talking about the red spider lily that can repair the soul?"
"Yes, it seems you know." Lin Han nodded.
Hearing this, Jiang Xi's eyes flashed with eagerness, and she suddenly changed the subject, "I want to go with you too!"
"Aren't you afraid of death?" Lin Han glanced at Jiang Xi, "That's not what you said just now."
"I, too, need red spider lilies! I also want to save a companion!" she said anxiously.
"Well, let's go and take a look together."
As for who Jiang Xi wanted to save, Lin Han did not ask.
Everyone has a story in their heart, but he is not very interested in knowing it.
just.
After the excitement, Jiang Xi fell into memories.
She lowered her head and spoke to herself, "A long time ago, I had a very good companion. We went out to find food together every day and returned to the city together. We lived a very happy life. I thought that kind of life would continue like this forever..."
"But once again, we encountered a powerful soul-leaving creature. It was... truly powerful. To avoid being eaten, my companion lost more than half of his soul. However, I escaped with the remaining soul. To prevent him from becoming a soul-leaving creature, I sealed him in this pendant."
As she spoke, she took out a jade pendant hanging around her neck.
"I hope that one day a miracle will happen and he will wake up. Although the chance is slim, I have never given up..."
"So, I want to follow you to see if the river of the underworld really has the red spider lily you mentioned."
Lin Han frowned slightly, "Even if you are willing to risk being eaten?"
"I know it will be dangerous, but for him, I would rather take the risk!" Jiang Xi said firmly.
"It seems that he holds a very important place in your heart, and you are not even afraid of death."
Lin Han looked at Jiang Xi with some respect.
"I'm scared, but I want him to wake up, just like before. I'm really looking forward to it."
Jiang Xi smiled.
But her smile became even more terrifying as night fell.
After a while, she asked again, "So, when are we leaving?"
"Maybe, in a few days."
Lin Han thought for a moment and said, "I want to see if there is any way to find a map of the underworld in this city."
After all, he didn't believe that there was no map to the underworld.
Although what Jiang Xi said before did not seem to be false, the fact that there was no map was somewhat unreasonable.
Otherwise, he would not be able to know the exact location of the River of the Underworld.
Although the War Spirit pointed out the approximate direction of the River of the Underworld to him before setting off, without a map, it would take a lot of effort to find it.
"Well, this... well..."
Jiang Xi lowered her head awkwardly, and a hint of embarrassment appeared on the normal half of her face.
She put her hands behind her back and fiddled with it.
Then she handed over a scroll made of some unknown leather.
"This, actually, is a map of the underworld. I accidentally found it from a spirit a long time ago. I never thought it would come in handy now..."
Perhaps to hide her embarrassment, she hurriedly opened the map and said, "Look, we're here, and the River of the Underworld is here. It's too far, isn't it? I told you it's very dangerous, but since you're so sincere, I'll share this map with you..."
Obviously, she had studied the map thoroughly, otherwise how could she point out the location of the city and the River of the Underworld so skillfully.
Lin Han frowned and asked coldly, "So, you didn't want to give it to me just now, why?"
Jiang Xi fell silent.
After a while.
She raised her head, looking a little embarrassed.
"I, I just don't want you to leave me, because you are strong. You can protect me and keep me fed so I don't have to suffer from hunger and cold. With your protection, I don't have to worry about being eaten by other undead at any time."
"But if I hand over the map, I will lose you, the big tree I can rely on."
"So, you changed your mind after hearing about the red spider lily in the River of the Underworld. Okay, I forgive you." Lin Han said.
In fact, there was nothing wrong with Jiang Xi doing this.
It is perfectly normal for Jiang Xi to have such a little selfish desire.
Besides, why should she hand over the map?
He and Jiang Kui were just casual acquaintances, but it was obvious from this map that Jiang Kui attached great importance to it.
The reason why Jiang Xi treasured this map was actually to help her companion recover one day.
Lin Han was impressed by his loyalty and righteousness.
"Really? You don't blame me?"
Jiang Xi asked in surprise, as if she didn't believe at all that Lin Han forgave her so easily.
"Forgive you."
Lin Han nodded and said, "It seems that you have already made some plans... and you have known about the existence of the red spider lily for a long time, otherwise you would not be so well prepared. Tell me about your plan."
