Chapter 42 Is there really a world of the dead

Chapter 42 Is there really a world of the dead?

Author: Yu Su

Chapter 42 Is there really a world of the dead?

Zhongli didn't know what he was thinking, or what he was thinking about, otherwise he might have to give his head a try. What was he thinking about?

He paused and continued:

"I don't know if you will stay here forever and whether you will recover your memory, but while you stay here, you might as well go out and see more. This is also a way to increase your knowledge..."

Jiang Bai nodded in agreement.

The world is so big, with so many new and interesting things, he will definitely take a good look at it.

"We are going to Huaguanglin tomorrow. Does Mr. Zhongli want to come with us?"

"No, you can just go by yourself." Zhong Li rejected Jiang Bai's invitation.

Mr. Yun will have a new play tomorrow and he is going to listen to it.

"Okay." Jiang Bai felt a little pity, but he couldn't force Zhong Li to leave, right?

After a good night's rest, early the next morning, the two of them, ready to go, embarked on the road to Huaguanglin in high spirits.

After taking Jiang Bai out of Liyue Port, Hu Tao pointed to the road ahead and planned the course of action for the two of them.

"We are walking from Guiliyuan. There is a road leading directly to Jueyunjian. If we start at this point, we should be able to reach Wangshu Inn at around two o'clock in the afternoon. We will have a meal there, and then fly from the rooftop of Wangshu Inn

After crossing the Bishui River, you will arrive at Cuijuepo..."

"Oh." Jiang Bai didn't know which one was which, anyway, whatever Hu Tao said was what it was.

He followed Hu Tao's footsteps and walked along the road, listening to Hu Tao adding knowledge to him as he walked.

"There is also a statue of the Seven Heavens God in Guiliyuan. Because it is right next to the road, people often go there to worship, and passers-by also stop for a while to pray to the emperor for peace.

There are often a lot of tributes placed on it. If you are hungry, you can sneak some and grab some without being discovered."

"That's not good?"

"What's wrong? Isn't food just for people to eat? The emperor can't eat it, so instead of letting it go bad all the time, it's better to appease his hungry stomach."

At this point, her voice suddenly became softer, "But don't be seen by the worshipers, they will be beaten~"

Jiang Bai didn't feel that he needed to steal tributes. If he was hungry, wouldn't there be so many sweet flowers in the mountains?

On the contrary, Hu Tao seems very experienced at first sight.

"I see there are a lot of guards on the roadside..." These guards are wearing armor and holding standard spears in their hands. They are very intimidating at first sight.

"This road is the main trade route to Mondstadt, so the Qianyan Army is guarding it along the way. If you encounter any difficulties on the road in the future, just go to the Qianyan Army."

Hu Tao shook his head, attracting the attention of Qian Yanjun on the roadside.

"As for what the Qianyan Army is, as the name suggests, it is the army that protects Liyue and is under the jurisdiction of the General Affairs Department."

Jiang Bai had also seen this Thousand Rock Army in Liyue Port, but he didn't need Hutao to educate him.

"Don't we have any means of transportation? We have to walk on two legs?"

"Yes, carriage!" Hutao held her head with both hands, pulled out a grass root and put it in her mouth. As she walked, the grass root trembled.

"But I don't like to sit. After all, with my pace, I can go wherever I want very quickly. If I were to run, the carriage wouldn't be as fast as me!"

As he spoke, Hu Tao moved forward backwards and performed a fancy disappearing technique for Jiang Bai.

"Hall Master, what is the principle of your ability?" Jiang Bai had seen Hu Tao use this ability many times, and finally asked out of curiosity.

This ability seems to penetrate space, and it can even be relied on to avoid attacks.

"I am the seventy-seventh generation leader of the Rebirth Hall. I am responsible for guarding the balance of yin and yang. Of course I have gone to the world of the dead~"

The little ghost in Hu Tao's body came out, drooped his two short hands, opened his mouth and exposed his tongue to Jiang Bai, making a fierce and resentful look.

Jiang Bai suppressed his smile and couldn't pretend to be scared.

This little thing is so cute! Who would be scared by it?

"Is there really a world of the dead?"

It sounds like a fictional world created by the hall master's bragging. If there really is a world of the dead, what does the world of the dead look like?

Are ghosts floating all over the sky? Or is it the same as the 18th floor? Or is it simply nothingness?

"Of course there is, but it's just not something you can access now. Even the Hall of Rebirth, only a few people know about it."

"All right……"

When Hu Tao said this, Jiang Bai stopped exploring. The main reason was that if he continued to explore, Hu Tao would not only not be able to talk about it, but would also find him annoying, and then it would be bad to hit him in the head with a gun.

Walking to a roadside, Jiang Bai found a strange device on a big stone.

This device is suspended on the stone steps. When viewed from the side, it looks a bit like a weaving spindle, except that it is recessed in the middle.

It is dotted with some golden patterns and wrapped with blue crystals on both ends.

This was the first time Jiang Bai saw this thing. He walked over curiously, "What is this?"

"I don't know. This thing has been here since I knew it. Everyone says it is a mysterious object from ancient times, but no one knows what it is used for."

"Ancient objects? Can they last for so long?"

Jiang Bai walked over curiously and reached out to touch it.

Originally, he just touched it out of curiosity, but what was unexpected was that Jiang Bai actually felt something different.

It feels like touching the elemental creation condensed by Mr. Zhongli for the first time.

He closed his eyes, his consciousness sank, as if he vaguely felt some kind of connection.

These veins are like the blood vessels of the human body, forming an airtight network that covers the entire earth and the entire world.

"There are two of these leyline anchor points in Liyue Port. When we first built the house, we wanted to demolish it, but it couldn't be demolished at all. Then we had no choice, so this thing stayed and became a decoration. Not only in Liyue Port, this

There are things everywhere on this earth.”

Hutao didn't know what Jiang Bai was doing, nor what Jiang Bai was feeling. Even if she was the master of the Hall of Rebirth, her understanding of this was limited to this.

Jiang Bai opened his eyes and said, "Master, this thing is so strange."

"What a strange method?"

"When I first touched it, I felt something like a vein, spreading across the earth like a network."

Jiang Bai roughly described his feelings.

"What you feel should be the earth veins, but why can you feel the earth veins?" Hutao approached in confusion and reached out to touch it, but the result was the same as before, he felt nothing.

"Ley lines? What are ley lines? The pulse of the earth?"

Hutao held her chin, recalling her previous exchange with Zhongli.

She was also very curious about this kind of thing when she was little. After her curiosity aroused, she asked everyone around her, and only Mr. Zhongli gave an answer.
