X gave Loki popular science about the purpose of the eternal lamp in the underworld. The ghosts who have just arrived in the underworld can fish an everlasting lamp from the spring of Hevagmir, light it and call the names of other ghosts. The other party can sense it and follow the direction of the light. meet with it.

"But now there are two problems. First, the eternal lamp is for ghosts. If you go to light the lamp, even if you are wearing a gray robe, you may be spotted by the guards of the underworld."

"I can last until the person I'm looking for appears, and a few guards are not difficult to deal with." Loki said confidently.

"This is the second question. The eternal lamp can only call your loved ones, and others are useless." X stroked his mustache and said, "Who are you and the ghost you are looking for?" what relationship?"

"Uh... let's be friends." Loki spread his hands, "Anyway, if there is a way, we must try."

Loki didn't stay long, packed his luggage and said goodbye to X, "Thank you for saving your life X, if you encounter any troubles in the future, come to Asgard and find me, I will help you."

"Let's talk about it if you can leave the underworld alive." X laughed.

"The little underworld can't trap me." Loki waved at him, put on his gray robe again and walked into the darkness.

After this distress, Loki is more cautious.There are wandering ghosts everywhere in the underworld, some screaming and laughing, some crying in depression, and some guards are beating the disobedient ghosts who escaped, and the heart-piercing wailing fills the ears, it really is hell.

In this place where there is no difference between day and night, Loki doesn't know how long he has been here.Returning to Hwagmeer Spring, the ghosts around were less and less. Looking around, I didn’t see any guards. I leaned over to fish out a lamp from the spring water.

There are many long-burning lamps in the black spring water, and they light up immediately after leaving the spring water. The dim yellow light seems to still have warmth. Loki sighed, and softly called Gaia's name.

Little Gaia, where are you?I'm here to take you away.

Little Gaia, please be sure to hear my call and come to me along this beam of light.

Gaia, little goldfish, remember our days in the atrium?

Gaia, I miss you.

.........

His Royal Highness Loki was almost moved to tears by his call, and what he summoned was not Gaia, but the guards of the underworld.

"There are intruders!" The guard shouted, and dozens of people rushed up ahead of Loki.

"Shit!" Loki wrestled with several people with an ever-burning lamp in one hand and a dagger in the other. "Gaia without conscience, you don't show up for such an affectionate confession from me!"

There were more and more guards, and Loki began to feel strenuous. The spear stabbed at the ever-burning lamp in Loki's hand, and when the lamp went out, the glass shattered all over the floor. "fuck!" Loki cursed, creating an illusion of himself and escaping in his robes amidst the chaos.

Loki started a chase with the Guardians of the Underworld. He crossed an unknown river and hid in a bush.Seeing the guards walking past him, he almost screamed in fright when he turned around.

There was a little boy squatting beside him, staring at him in fear, as if he was about to scream in the next second.

"Shh! Be quiet!" Loki warned, glaring at him.

The guards had already left, and the little boy hurriedly stood up, "Who are you!"

"None of your business." Loki didn't want to talk to the brat.

"The undead army wants to arrest you, you must be a bad person." The little boy said with round eyes.

Loki chuckled and asked him back: "Since you know I'm a bad guy, why don't you tell those undead army?"

"Because I also have a reason not to be discovered by them." The little boy pouted.

"Okay, I don't want to know your reason, we have to get out of here first." Loki looked around, damn, what the hell is this place.

"Come with me, I know the way here!" The little boy climbed up a dirt slope and waved to Loki, "I know a safe place that the undead army dare not find."

Loki half-believes the little boy's words, but now he has no clue, so he can only save himself and think of countermeasures.

The two climbed up the mountain, and the little boy looked at Loki while walking, and asked again: "You are not from here, why did you come to the underworld?"

"Nothing to do with you."

"Cut, forget it if you don't want to." The little boy curled his lips and said proudly: "My grandfather is the most powerful wizard in the entire underworld, maybe he can help you?"

"Why are you helping me?" Loki asked.

"My sister told me that the enemy's enemy is my friend, and the undead army is our common enemy, so we are friends!" The little boy said bouncing around.

"Grandpa and sister, your family is really talented." Loki couldn't help laughing.

In the dark cave, above the cave, the rain dripped and bloomed on the stone.In the depths of the cave, the blond girl walked towards a deeper cave with a candle, turned around and walked towards the steps, as if she had come to another world.

The water wheel next to the steps rotates, and the water flows into the water tank automatically.Walking inside is a workbench, on which three red candles are lit, next to it are tables, chairs, cabinets and single beds.

"Fendis? Are you there?" The blond girl put down the candlestick and called.

"I'm here." An old voice came from the large bookshelf behind the girl. There were many books and bottles and cans. The girl looked up the ladder, and the old man with the white beard was walking down tremblingly.

"Be careful, I'll take care of this kind of thing." The girl supported him, frowning and complaining.

"It's okay, I won't fall to my death." The old man laughed, his gray beard was close to his ankles, he put a book on the table, looked outside and asked, "Where did Bobby go?"

"I ran out early in the morning, and now I'm gone." The girl sighed, "This child is becoming more and more disobedient. When he comes back, I will teach him a lesson."

"The underworld doesn't seem to be peaceful recently, so don't let him run around." The old man sat at the table and took out an old pipe, and lit the candle in front of the table. ?”

"Just finished confinement, but I think she will find other ways to escape."

As soon as the girl finished speaking, Edie rushed in, glared at the girl and said angrily, "Stop gloating here, I almost escaped this time!"

"Edie, you know that dead souls can't escape the underworld." The girl said impatiently, she really didn't like this crazy woman.

"Of course you can't get out like you are timid." Edie said bluntly.

"It's up to you. If you can escape, I will lose." The girl rolled her eyes and turned to leave.

"Gaia!" Fendis called to her, "It's getting dark, don't forget to light the lamp."

"I know." Gaia replied without looking back.

The path in the mountain became narrower and narrower. Loki followed the little boy for a long distance. His footsteps seemed to be flying fast. Loki, who had been running all the time, finally couldn't keep up. "I said, what are you in a hurry for?"

"It's getting dark, if I don't go back before dark, my sister will beat me." The little boy said anxiously.

Looking up at the pitch-black sky, Loki frowned, "How can you tell the difference between day and night, I look equally black.

"You are not a ghost, you are different from what we saw." The little boy pointed to the cave in front and said happily, "Here we are, this is my home!"

As the little boy walked into the cave, it wasn't pitch black, but a lamp lit up every few steps. After passing through one cave after another, Loki felt his surroundings suddenly opened up. This was a large open space, with sprawling vines and flexible water wheels. Turning around, walking up the steps, it seemed that he had reached a room.

"Grandpa, I'm back!" The little boy ran over, Fendis and Edie turned their heads, and were obviously taken aback when they saw Loki, the uninvited guest.

"Excuse me, I'm Loki." Loki bowed politely, he could see that the old man in front of him was unusual.

"I saw an army of undead chasing him, so I brought him back to hide." The little boy stared at Fendis with round eyes.

"Hey, it's you!" Edie saw Loki approaching excitedly, staring at him intently, "We are so destined to meet again."

"Yes! It's really rare." Loki laughed a few times, it was just unfortunate.

"Are you an Asgardian?" Fendis stared at Loki and spoke slowly.

"That's right, I came to the underworld this time to find someone, and I accidentally exposed my whereabouts, so I was hunted down by the undead army." Loki explained that the old man in front of him always gave him a sense of oppression, making him unable to lie.

Fendis glanced at his cloak and boots, stroked his beard and said, "It's really well prepared, no wonder I came here alone."

"Grandpa, or you can help him, it's easy to find a ghost." The little boy tugged at the corner of Rafendis's clothes.

"Bobby, what do you know, a kid!" Edie patted his head, and then said to Loki, "You're tired all the way, take a rest first, we'll talk about tomorrow if you have anything to do."

"Yes, there will be no undead army here, you can rest in peace." Fendis squeezed his pipe, and he seemed to have to observe this unexpected guest more, "Edie, help Loki prepare some food, he can't be like us Neither eat nor drink."

"OK! I'll go right away!" Edie answered simply, and ran out happily.

Loki frowned at her, then whispered to Bobby, "Is this your sister?"

"Of course not!" Bobby turned to Fendis and said, "Where's my sister?"

"She went to light the lamp."

The night in the underworld is very windy. Gaia walked around the cave with a lamp. There are many dangerous beasts in the underworld at night. Only by lighting the four corners of the cave with lights, those beasts dare not approach when they see the light.

After lighting the last lamp, Gaia raised her eyes to look at the sky, the only thing that can distinguish night from day here is the never-ending full moon in the sky.

Walking to the rock on the edge of the cliff and sitting on the ground, the night wind blew up the hood of the cloak, blinding her eyes.

Occasionally, she still thinks of the old days, the days when she acted like a baby by her parents, the days when she learned magic with Darcy and the others, and the group of friends she gained in the atrium.

She buried her head in her knees and fell into deep thought. She didn't know how they were doing now, whether they had defeated Thanos, and she could vaguely see Loki when she was unconscious. Was he... came to save her?

Gaia even regretted not seeing Loki for the last time.Strange to say, the last thing she thought of before she died was not her parents, not even Steve, but Loki who had been bullying her and quarreling with her.

She remembered what Fendis said to her when she first came to the underworld, "Everyone who dies has unfulfilled wishes and regrets, and all we can do is remember."

Yes, there is no chance again. Gaia wiped the crystals from the corners of her eyes, stood up and walked back.How strange, how can the dead cry?

Passing through the cave with the lamp in hand, Bobby's voice was heard from a distance. This kid came back so late, so I must teach him a good lesson. Thinking of this, Gaia stopped in her tracks, and when Bobby approached, she yelled sharply: "Did I tell you not to run out often, you brat..."

Before she finished speaking, she froze on the spot, looked at Loki behind Bobby in disbelief, and slipped the oil lamp and dropped it to the ground.

There is nothing more absurd and surprising in the world than the person who was still regretting that he would never have the chance to see him again the next moment.
