Chapter 450 Farewell to the underworld, the final journey (plus two in one)

When the day of departure came, the heroes of the great plain saw Bald off.

They either personally participated in the nine trials or heard about them. They shouted for Baird's experience and sang about this great adventure. The experiences of those heroes undoubtedly showed everyone that heroes Even in death, he is still a hero.

Baird knelt down on one knee amid the cheers of the great souls. He offered a grand sacrifice to Nakbet, the god of death, and Esrona, the queen of the underworld, to thank and praise the help of the two gods. After the sacrifice , people sang and danced around Baird, drinking and having fun.

Everyone knows that the hero of heroes,
In order to return to his lover, he has gone through all the disasters in the underworld, and today he is about to return to the human world and return to the sun.

The world after death is certainly beautiful, and the great plain under his feet is full of flowers and plants, but for Baird, he pays more attention to this life, this second, the moment he has lived, that lover is not only entrusted with love, but also his love for him. Souvenirs from the past.

As he approached the river between the great plain and the palace, the heroes who had accompanied him stopped, and Baird stopped and looked back.

I saw Kars stand up and said:

"Bird,

Our journey is over.

But your life is about to start from scratch. "

This short sentence made the hero's eyes wet. Although there were many catastrophes and rough roads in the underworld, none of them could make him cry like now. The nine trials all disappeared in smoke, and only The trial of farewell stings the most.

"And stop telling this sad goodbye that always breaks our hearts."

A hero laughed and said to Kars.

With the hearty laughter, the heroes stopped mourning immediately, and they chanted Baird's name again, making the last practice for him.

This is like a funeral that belongs exclusively to the underworld. The living people bid farewell to the dead through the funeral, and these dead heroes also bid farewell to Baird, watching him go to the world of the living.

So, the heroes sang loudly, wishing Baird the rest of his life.

"In the stormy land of life,
Alternate day and night, fighting again,

We struggle, we glorify, we rise, we enjoy savage life.

Singing the fate and legend in poetry,
Let's bathe in blood, praise God and sacrifice to the gods together! "

The magnificent singing of the heroes resounded through the great plain below, and the river would be frightened by this courageous singing. Only at this moment, the old-fashioned boatman Suomi would recall for a long time that the vast land in front of him carried a group of great souls,

Baird heard the heroes bid farewell to him with singing, he didn't say anything, only moved tears rolled down the river, he boarded the boat of the boatman Suomi, and went to the palace of the underworld again, The figures of the heroes gradually drifted away in a row of haze. He turned his head, and the passionate singing was still echoing in his ears.

On this day,
These heroes bid farewell to the dead Baird,
And the world is about to usher in a man of flesh and blood.

Suomi brought the hero to the palace of the underworld, and Nakbet, the god of death, stood outside the palace to greet him and showed him the body.

"Remember, once you set foot on the road back to your hometown, don't open your eyes unless you return to the human world. If you let the wind of the underworld blow your soul again, then you will stay here forever."

Nakbet asked again.

Baird nodded, he kept these words firmly in his heart, and then the king of the underworld began to cleanse his soul and remove the breath of the underworld from his body.

Not long after, Baird felt a strange but familiar feeling. It turned out that he had entered that body, and the feeling of having a body again made the hero feel emotional.

He closed his eyes tightly, and there was only darkness in his eyes. He felt that someone was leading him on a road back to the world.

Nakbet, the god of death, personally put on the bag for him, which contained water and food, and a sharp sword for him to use when he returned to the world.

"Here, go straight ahead until you go back to the world of the living, where the sun shines, and don't open your eyes."

Nakbet's voice appeared in Baird's ear, and the hero nodded solemnly.

The god in charge of death watched Baird raise his legs and embarked on this road back to the world. He did not deceive Baird. This road is the road connecting the underworld and the human world. At the end, you can return to the world.

He watched Baird's figure fade away until he disappeared from sight, then lowered his head, as if thinking about something.

...................................................

Baird had been walking for a while, and the road was longer than he expected. Because of his closed eyes, he didn't know how far he had walked, so he could only give a rough guess.

The only thing he knows is that he hasn't come to the end yet, to the exit.

Because although the eyes are closed, people can still barely perceive the world outside the eyelids. If there is light all around, then even if the eyes are closed, they can still feel the whiteness, and vice versa.

At this moment, Baird felt the incomparable darkness in front of his eyes, there was no light, and the surroundings were completely silent. The dark wind of the underworld passed by, and there was a whirring sound. The road under his feet was like a narrow and long tunnel, and he could step on the wall from time to time. Falling gravel.

He kept walking without stopping for a moment. When he was thirsty, he opened the water bag in the dark. When he was hungry, he ate bread in the dark. He was no longer a ghost of the underworld, but a living person with a physical body. Nature needs water and food.

Fortunately, Nakbet, the god of death, prepared enough food and water for him, and told Baird that the water and food would definitely be enough for him to reach the end.

Therefore, the consumption of water and food has become the basis for Baird to judge how long it will take to reach the human world.

When Baird was tired, he took a rest on the road. The dark wind of the underworld tossed his spirit in the light sleep, as if trying his best to keep him in the underworld, but he always closed his eyes tightly, never letting go even for a moment. Woke up in sleep without opening eyes.

He lived like a blind man.

Gradually, after an unknown number of days, loneliness began to linger in Baird's heart, which was the hero's greatest enemy.

In order to relieve his loneliness, Baird began to recall the short but memorable nine trials. He entertained himself, and whenever he remembered the sad parting, tears flowed from his closed eyes. Outflow.

.......................................

.......................................

Baird is walking on the road between the underworld and the human world. At this moment, he seems to belong to neither the underworld nor the human world.

Because the eyes are closed and there is no visual aid to judge, Baird usually observes the surrounding environment by hearing and touch.

Walking in this endless tunnel, the hero began to hear some miserable wailing sounds.

Those voices came from above him, where it seemed to be the ground, only in the Wilderness of Punishment would there be such a miserable voice.

Baird probably guessed how far he had traveled, and maybe he was no longer far away from the world.

Thinking of this, Baird's fighting spirit rose, he quickened his pace, and continued to move forward on that road.

The wretched wraiths who suffered in the Wilderness of Wrath never imagined that beneath their ground a man of flesh and blood walked.

Baird didn't delay along the way, and he didn't want to delay. He couldn't wait to return to the human world. As for how to reunite with his lover after returning to the human world, he already had a rough plan, and this was nothing to worry about.

On the contrary, it is the world of the living that should be worried. The living people on the ground should prepare in advance to meet a hero who has been resurrected from the dead.

A few days later, the sound of the punishment wilderness gradually faded away, Baird heard a slight hum from the surface, and realized that he had reached the peaceful plain.

At the same time, when Baird counted the food and water with his hands, he found that his luggage was about half lighter along the way, which also meant that he had walked nearly half of the distance, and he would be able to return to the world in a short time.

And along the way, Baird tightly grasped the sharp sword prepared for him by the god of death, and couldn't help but get excited in his heart, but he never opened his eyes, because the scene under his eyelids was still pitch black.

After realizing how far he had come, Baird's chest was full of passion, and he gradually jumped up, singing poetry aloud from time to time, venting his emotions, and resolving the boredom and loneliness along the way.

As the end approaches, Baird slowly misses his lover more and more. He still remembers her appearance, her glances and smiles, and even the days when he gave everything for love. It was a beautiful day .

Realizing that the world is just ahead, Baird gradually became a little irritable and impatient. No matter how cold the wind in the underworld was, it could not calm his mood.

He counts water and food every day and listens for sounds from the ground.

Finally, after an unknown number of days, Baird noticed that there was not much water and food left, and he began to hear from the ground the voices of the judges ruling the souls.

This means that he is about to reach the edge of the underworld!

Thinking of this, Baird's fire of anticipation was blazing. He couldn't wait to breathe the air of the world and bathe in the sunlight of the earth. His closed eyes slowly loosened, ready to welcome the first ray of light from the dead.

As Baird moved forward, even the voice of the judge gradually faded away, and the water and food in the luggage were about to be exhausted, and the weight of the luggage was concentrated on the sharp sword.

I am not far away from the world.

Baird realized this, and on his journey, even the dark winds of the underworld were much less.

In another day, two days, or three or four days, he will leave the underworld and return to the human world.

Three or four days later, Baird slowly noticed a hazy scene of whiteness from under his closed eyelids.

The hero's hands began to tremble nervously, and the luggage on his shoulders was extremely light, extremely light.

He has come close to the world, has gone through all the catastrophes in the underworld,
A hero of flesh and blood is about to return to the world,
On that land, countless poets circulated countless legends about him, but he only wanted to return to his lover.

The white hazy picture in Baird's eyes became more and more profound. He took many steps forward and could no longer wait.

The warmth of the world seemed to be right in front of him.

Suddenly, Baird couldn't help but opened his eyes uncontrollably.

In front of his eyes was a spacious and bright human wilderness.

And at his feet,
But it is still a gloomy and desolate world of the dead.

Baird was stunned, a gust of cold wind swept over his body, from his eyes only into his soul.

It was the wind of the underworld, which shattered all his previous expectations, the disasters he had experienced, and his last hope!
One step away, he stepped out of the underworld.

Before the hero even had time to touch the sunshine of the world, he saw an invisible wall in front of him, preventing him from leaving the eternal night.

Under the teasing of that fate, he forgot the taboo of the underworld and the warning of death.

No matter how long the hero has walked with his eyes closed, he only needs to open his eyes, just once, and all his previous efforts will be wasted and wiped out.

Baird froze in place, the blood seemed to be frozen and flowed backwards in his body.

He couldn't believe the scene in front of him, and his eyes widened in horror.

In front of my eyes is the beautiful world, but my feet are still in the underworld.

He didn't leave the underworld!

And just one step away, and one more step forward, he will be able to leave the underworld and return to the human world.

Baird's complexion quickly turned pale, his limbs began to feel weak, and he slowly fell to the ground. Under the huge impact, his mind was blank and there was nothing.

He has been sitting there for an unknown amount of time.

"In the end..."

A trembling voice lingered in his throat.

At this moment, a gloomy and treacherous wind blows from behind...

Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared in front of Baird.

The nameless judge.

He looked at Baird with an extremely playful look.

"Baird, it's time for you to turn back, return to the underworld, and be with the dead you are familiar with."

Baird was suddenly awakened from his confusion by the voice. He looked straight at the nameless judge in front of him. The latter was dressed in a black robe and looked exactly like the one he had seen before, but he was no longer as taciturn as before.

The judge slowly lifted his mask, revealing a familiar face.

"S...Slae?!"

Baird said in astonishment.

That is Slaer, the god of lies and trickery.

Baird will not forget this god. In the past, it was He who made the dragon god Ndola gamble with him, and finally fell to that sad ending.

But this time, Slae appeared again.

"As I said before,
No matter what you have to go through, no matter what your final result is, never touch taboos.

Baird, you will never leave the underworld. "

The joking voice fell, like the cruelest and coldest sentence.

A mistake made Baird break the taboo.

And what awaits him is a hopeless fate, or...
