Training Through The Game

Chapter 351: : Ferryman, to the Styx

After climbing over the black wall, Lu Yu entered a completely different world.

On the other side of the black wall is a desolate and foggy land that is silent and uninhabited, on this side of the black wall are brightly lit neighborhoods, and dense buildings crowd the earth.

Looking at the crowded streets in front of him, Lu Yu suspected that he had entered an illusion.

But the facts told him that everything that appeared in front of his eyes was real.

On the streets, all kinds of undead live in harmony, and the prejudice and hatred between races have been cast aside.

They are all people who have already died, what else can't let go?

The more important reason is that people in the Netherworld will not "die", and fighting is meaningless.

Lu Yu disguised his attire, found a small shop that looked like a shop and walked in.

Observing the pedestrians coming and going in the street, Lu Yu has almost mastered the language of the soul.

Compared with normal language, the language of the soul is more like an exchange of ideas, and there is no misinterpretation, because what you hear is the clearest meaning of the other party.

This is also the reason why undeads of different shapes can live together peacefully, because there is no obstacle to the communication between undeads.

Ding dong~ A few rough black coins fell on the table, these coins were made of black soil.

After Lu Yu's observation, he found that the black soil for making this coin is only found in the foggy land on the other side of the black wall. It seems that there is no such thing as black soil here.

As for detaining the black soil on the black wall, those who have the strength disdain to do it, and those who have no strength can't do it at all.

Only an alien stowaways like Lu Yu, with a little special power, can detain the black soil from the black wall.

These black soil coins were all made by him with a black soil coin from Shunlai, and they were exactly the same.

The shop owner, seeing the black soil coins on the table, stretched out his hand to cover some of the black soil coins, took them into his arms, and asked enthusiastically, "What do you want?"

Lu Yu glanced at the things on the tables of other customers in the store, and said to the shopkeeper, "Give me the same one as him."

"Okay, you are really discerning. This is a specialty of our shop. Eating it is of great benefit to repairing the wounds of the soul." The shopkeeper praised a few words and said randomly, "You sit first, and I will serve the food right away. "

"Wait, I have one more thing to ask you." Lu Yu knocked on the table and stopped the shopkeeper who was about to turn around and leave.

When the shopkeeper heard his voice, he immediately stopped, turned to look at Lu Yu with a smile on his face, and said respectfully: "You ask, as long as I know, I will definitely know everything."

"Do you know how to get to the Styx?" Lu Yu asked straight to the point.

When he asked this sentence, Lu Yu was very nervous, sensing every movement around him, for fear that a single sentence would reveal the truth.

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, then said, "Styx? Do you mean Mother River?"

"It's easy to go to the Mother River! As long as you are "killed" by others, you will be resurrected in the Mother River."

Later, the shopkeeper also realized that Lu Yu was not asking this question. He frowned and said after a while, "If you ask, how do you go to Muhe while you're alive, then I really don't know."

The shopkeeper shook his head, indicating that there was nothing he could do.

Hearing this, Lu Yu was stunned for a moment, and silently remembered in his heart that the aborigines in the Netherworld call the Styx the mother river, and after death, they can be resurrected in the mother river.

"Since he was resurrected from Muhe, how could Na not know the way to Muhe? You never died?" Lu Yu asked subconsciously.

The shopkeeper stared at Lu Yu for a while, and said, "I've died many times. I think you haven't died yet! You don't know anything about Muhe."

"After coming out of the Mother River, you can't find the way back to the Mother River. No matter what mark you leave, it's useless. Unless you die again, you won't be able to enter the Mother River."

After speaking, the shopkeeper hesitated for a moment before saying, "I have heard a rumor."

He glanced left and right, approached Lu Yu and said in a low voice, "I don't know if this rumor is true or not. Some people say that in the small courtyard at the end of Xitian Neighborhood, there lives a ferryman from the mother river, who specializes in guiding the dead in the mother river. Many times, souls that have lost their minds enter reincarnation and are reincarnated."

"He is in charge of ferries on the mother river. He should know how to get to the mother river, right? I mean, don't take it seriously. Ferrymen are the most taboo existences for us. We should try not to contact them or try not to contact them." The shopkeeper He warned with lingering fears.

A certain time when he was resurrected from Muhe, he saw the figure of the ferryman, and he almost thought he would not be able to come back.

After he came back, he gave up fighting and killing and opened a small shop with peace of mind. He could live as long as he could, until he was tired of it.

After all, he is not sure whether he will be taken away by the ferryman the next time he dies.

……

According to what the shopkeeper said, Lu Yu found the Xitian neighborhood and went all the way to the end of the neighborhood.

Across the distance, Lu Yu saw the ferryman's courtyard, because it was too conspicuous.

Around the ferryman's small courtyard, it was empty and deserted. No soul was willing to come near there. The crowded people would stop here.

Walking out of the crowd, Lu Yu walked towards the ferryman's courtyard.

When he walked over, many pedestrians turned their heads to look at him, looking at him with the eyes of a dead man.

"It's another one that I can't think of, isn't it bad here? It's not possible to practice hard to achieve longevity. Anyone who wants to live here can live as long as he wants, and he won't die. Why should he be reincarnated?" Someone asked inexplicably.

"Maybe it has something to do with it. Going through the back door, the elders above have already arranged it for him. It's better to live than to be dead."

Compared to living, undead are much less sensitive to various senses, except for pain.

Pain is more sensitive, because they are injured now, and they are all injuries on the soul. Not only are they sensitive, but there is no pain and fainting, only the pain will make the soul fly away.

In that case, there is no chance of resurrection.

Moreover, the Netherworld is also very barren, which refers to the barrenness in terms of material types, which is far less abundant than that of the normal world.

It is also very difficult to obtain various special sensory experiences.

There is no sour, sweet, bitter, salty, and spicy is unbearable, and you can't smell the fragrant smell, so it's hard to enjoy the pleasure of smell... The Netherworld is a "indifferent" world.

Some people can't stand the "indifference" of the Netherworld, so they will take the initiative to seek death, find the ferryman, and ask him to help send them into reincarnation and reincarnation.

There are also people who are used to it. They find fun in other ways. Anyway, they won't die. They can do whatever they want.

In general, the neighborhood of the Netherworld is expanding every moment, because there are always new undead coming to the Netherworld. Most undead choose to enter the reincarnation after living for a period of time. .

This is a world like a peach blossom.

Although there was a lot of discussion, no one stood up to dissuade Lu Yu, because they didn't know if they would get tired of living here in the next moment and choose to reincarnate.

To a large extent, the driving force that supports them to continue living here is that after reincarnation, it is no longer them, and they are truly "dead".

Lu Yu walked to the door of the small courtyard, and before he knocked on the door, the half-person-high wooden fence door opened automatically with a bang.

He paused for a moment at the door and walked into the small courtyard.

The small courtyard was simply surrounded by fences, but when Lu Yu was outside, he couldn't see the inside of the courtyard at all, and only when he walked in did he see clearly.

On the left is a small vegetable garden with black soil. There are many plants that Lu Yu has never seen before. They all look like the characteristics of the underworld, with dark colors and special shapes, none of which are the same.

On the right side are two drying racks with branched tree trunks standing up, on which hangs a slightly worn out coat, which looks like a person hanging on a bamboo pole.

There was no one in the small courtyard. Lu Yu walked towards the house, and a sturdy figure came out of the house.

The moment he saw this figure, the image of the ferryman in Lu Yu's heart collapsed. In his heart, the ferryman should be a very old man.

Later, Lu Yu realized that he had substituted the image of the ferryman that often appeared in film and television works and novels.

The ferryman in front of him asked Lu Yu to use one word to describe it—bald-headed muscle tyrant.

That's right, the ferryman is not only not an old man, but also a burly man with a bald head. The muscles on his body make Lu Yu have no doubt that he can kill a cow with one punch.

The ferryman glanced at Lu Yu, walked towards the vegetable garden, and said casually, "Looking for death? Just wait."

Hearing this, Lu Yu was a little speechless. Do all the people in the Netherworld talk like this?

Because of the language of the soul, Lu Yu did not misunderstand the ferryman's words.

If normal people talk like this, most of them would have already started fighting, but here in the ferryman, courting death? Just a simple greeting.

The ferryman randomly picked a vegetable from the vegetable garden, and after pulling it up, Lu Yu discovered that this vegetable was actually grown with a soul body.

The bottom of the dish was still dragging half of the soul body, and when the ferryman slid it, the black mud on the dish fell, and half of the soul body was rubbed into the dish by him.

Crunchy~ The ferryman ate the soul body and the vegetables grown in the black soil in three or two bites, walked to the drying rack, took off the mink clothes, put it on his body, and walked towards Lu Yu.

Randomly rubbing the soul body and grabbing it towards Lu Yu, the ferryman said casually, "We're on our way."

Facing the palm grabbed by the ferryman, Lu Yu faintly felt that his soul was about to leave the body, as if it was about to fly into his palm.

His body radiated gleaming light, like a piece of jade, firmly fixing his soul in the body.

Lu Yu took a step back and avoided the hand of the ferryman.

The ferryman was stunned, withdrew his hand, looked at Lu Yu carefully, and said in surprise, "You are not dead!"

Hearing this, Lu Yu frowned. He didn't expect his identity to be revealed so easily, and murderous intentions arose in his heart.

The ferryman shook his head and said, "I only care about the dead. If you are not dead, just get out of the way. I still have work to do."

Hearing the ferryman's words, the killing intent in Lu Yu's heart gradually disappeared, and the ferryman didn't seem to want to be his enemy.

After the ferryman put on the mino jacket, he walked towards the gate. Lu Yu hurriedly followed and stopped the ferryman, "Wait a minute, I have something to do with you."

The ferryman stopped, turned around strangely, and asked, "What can you do with me?"

"I'm going to the mother river." Lu Yu looked at the ferryman and said seriously.

The ferryman was stunned for a moment, feeling a little funny, and said, "Aren't you courting death?"

"You are now entering the Netherworld as a stowaways. It's already very dangerous. I don't know how you stay "immortal" in the Netherworld, but if you dare to go to the Styx, you will be dead."

The ferryman raised his hand and waved, turned to leave, and said, "Don't waste my time, if you want to court death, you can find out here yourself."

"How do you want to take me to the Ming River?" Lu Yu asked calmly when he saw that the ferryman was unwilling.

The ferryman stopped again, thinking Lu Yu was very interesting, and turned around to look at Lu Yu curiously, "You just want to die?"

"It's not that I want to die, it's that I have a reason to go to Styx." Lu Yu said.

Seeing the seriousness in Lu Yu's eyes, the ferryman hesitated for a moment and said, "Also, if you can bring me three hundred catties of Netherland, I will take you to the Styx River."

Lu Yu glanced at the vegetable garden in his yard, pointed to the sparse black soil in the vegetable garden and said, "Is this?"

"Well." The ferryman nodded.

Three hundred catties of Netherland can be exchanged for black soil coins, which is almost 15,000. Most of the dead souls only have dozens of black soil coins. Even the shopkeeper who opened the store, the number of black soil coins in his hand is estimated to be no more than 500. pieces.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be so excited when he saw the three black soil coins thrown by Lu Yu.

Lu Yu doesn't know the purpose of the black soil coins for the undead for the time being, but judging from the situation in the ferryman's yard, the underworld soil where the black soil coins are made is likely to be an important resource for planting plants in the underworld.

The black soil is also called the underworld, so it seems more appropriate to call the black soil coins the underworld coins.

Asking Lu Yu to take out 300 catties of Netherland is not because the ferryman is embarrassing Lu Yu, but because if there is less Netherland, it will be useless.

Three hundred catties was already his minimum requirement.

The ferryman estimated that it would take Lu Yu a lot of time to earn the three hundred catties of Netherland from other undeads. He turned around and prepared to leave again, and said as he walked, "When you bring enough Netherland, I will do whatever. time to take you."

Swish ~ A large amount of underworld soil was poured out of Lu Yu's storage ring and piled up on the ground to form a hill.

As soon as the ferryman's voice fell, he heard the movement behind him, his footsteps stopped, and without turning his head, he could feel that the sound behind him was the underworld, more than 300 kilograms of underworld.

Lu Yu looked at the ferryman who turned around and asked, "Is this enough?"

At his feet was a half-human-high mound of underworld soil, all of which were fresh, underworld soil that had just been transported from the other side of the black wall.

Of course, Lu Yu didn't have any spare time to dig soil. All the underworld soil was dug up by digging the seat when he was riding the snail elevator. At that time, there was nowhere to throw it away, so he put it into the storage ring without thinking too much.

I didn't expect it to come in handy now.

The ferryman looked at the piles of underworld soil with excitement in his eyes. With a big wave of his hand, the underworld soil was all scattered into mud and filled into his vegetable garden~www.wuxiamtl.com~ Those vegetables were growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"The fresh soil from outside is more nutritious." The ferryman said with emotion when he saw the thriving vegetables.

"You came from the black wall?" The ferryman looked at Lu Yu and asked.

Lu Yu nodded, "Yes."

"It seems that you are lucky enough to not be eaten by those things in the fog," said the ferryman.

Lu Yu frowned and asked, "What's there?"

The ferryman waved his hand and said, "I don't know either. Anyway, it's very dangerous over there. Otherwise, I wouldn't spend all the underworld here to build a black wall to cut off the underworld."

"Let's go, since you brought me enough Netherland, it's time for me to honor my promise." The ferryman said from the door.

The ferryman stretched out his hand to open the fence gate. Lu Yu heard the sound of water waves coming from outside the fence gate. He looked up, and the world outside the gate turned into an endless black water.

The ferryman stood at the door, looked at Lu Yu with interest, and said, "The Styx is right in front of you, do you still want to go?"

"Looking at the extra 300 catties of Netherland you gave me, let me remind you that if you touch the water of the Styx, you will die, your body will turn into bones, and your soul will be assimilated by the Styx."

"I know." Lu Yu said, without hesitation, he walked into the door opened by the ferryman.

Seeing Lu Yu walk in, the ferryman smiled, walked in, and closed the courtyard door.
