Chapter 158: Palo City Ruins
In the forest, the branches are bare, a bleak scene.
A path made of square stone bricks leads to all directions of the forest. Here, there are many clean lakes, and there are several wooden houses built next to almost every lake, which are the houses of the residents of Babu Town.
These wooden houses built near the lake will be rented out at high prices during the peak tourist season, and the supply is not the norm.
This is the off-season, but a few sets have been left unused.
Before going to the ruins of the ancient city, Luo rented a nearby wooden house by the lake as a temporary residence.
"What do you want to do?" Hearing Luo asking several questions about the ruins of the ancient city, Sambika couldn't help asking.
Before coming, Luo asked her to look up relevant information, but he didn't remember it. Now it's better to use her as a questioning microphone.
On the gravel path in the forest, mottled fallen leaves are scattered on it, the surrounding environment is quiet and secluded, and the sunlight falls on the forest, forming soft beams of light falling obliquely.
"Tear down the walls."
Luo's body merged into the beam of light, seemingly extremely holy.
However, what he said made Sambika feel cold.
"What did you say?" She stared at her beautiful eyes and lost her voice.
To demolish the walls of the ancient city ruins? This is a well-preserved cultural relic today. According to the laws of the Eurubian Continent, even if a corner is deliberately broken, it will inevitably end up in prison for several years, let alone tearing down the wall.
Luo touched his head and said seriously: "Don't get excited, I just want to find something from a certain wall in the ruins, because I don't know the exact location, so many places may have to be demolished."
"You're crazy." Sambika opened her small mouth slightly, but Luo couldn't see it because it was covered by the mask.
"It's just to tear down the wall to see if there is anything inside, and I can use my thoughts to restore it afterwards. It's not a big deal, right?" Luo asked suspiciously.
"..."
It was only at this time that Sambika realized that, yes, what Yiluo thought, even if it was dismantled for fun, it could be restored to its original state afterwards, which she didn't expect for a while.
"Anyway, go and have a look first. If the protection of the ruins is too strict, even if I can restore it afterwards, it will be useless if I can't touch it. If it doesn't work during the day, this trip will be regarded as a stepping stone, and I will demolish it in the middle of the night."
Luo walked forward facing the beam of light, talking seriously.
"You are quite familiar." Sambika walked beside him, and said something coldly.
Luo smiled awkwardly and explained, "Isn't this to avoid unnecessary trouble?"
Sambika snorted softly, feeling like he was boarding a thief ship. First, he went to Meteor Street to grab the knife. It’s fine for a reason. This time, Luo got the news from nowhere, and wanted to find something in the ruins of an ancient city.
If there is a good thing, it would have been discovered by archaeologists long ago, right? After all, the Palo ruins are hundreds of years old.
In the six continents of the world, many ancient relics have been unearthed in various places. Among the known world relics, more than 90% are under the strict protection of the countries on each continent.
Even if the country is unwilling to spend resources and manpower to develop or renovate the ruins, it will not allow outsiders to easily access them.
For outsiders who want to gain access to the ruins, the basic requirement is to apply for qualifications, followed by sufficient funds. The key point is that they spend money and efforts, and in the end it is just a prestige.
The city of Palo is just a human relic left over from the erosion of time. It is fundamentally different from those relics protected by the state. It is a relic that anyone can visit, and its archaeological value is not as good as those world-class relics. .
However, although the archaeological value of the Palo city site is not high, the monetary value should not be underestimated.
There is an endless stream of tourists who come here every year, and the annual income from tickets is far higher than the cost of maintenance.
It is one of the important places for local officials to collect money. Therefore, the official protection of the site is very strict.
When the trail came to the end, the density of trees was significantly thinner, and there were more people. It seemed that they were all heading for the ruins of Palo City.
"It seems that they are all couples."
Luo observed the people around him, and found that they were mostly couples in winter clothes, cuddling together, many of them were young, but there were also middle-aged people.
Palo City had an alias in ancient times, called the City of Sexual Love, and many legends related to love deeds have been handed down, and the more famous legends have been changed into stage plays.
Although there is no way to study these deeds, they are very real.
There is a well-preserved statue in the city, which is the symbol and belief of Palo City, and now it has become a place of worship for many lovers.
Most of the tourists basically come for the love legend in Palo City.
In addition, there is a more famous legend that the tomb of the city lord of Palo City is located. This has always been the truth that many archaeologists and treasure hunters want to find. According to ancient records, among the burial objects of the city lord are the most beautiful gemstones of that era .
People who know Palo City should also know the incidental information, but Luo Lai asked her to check the information before, but after learning the location of the Palo City ruins, she was not interested in other information.
Just want to know the location, and then have a clear purpose, which is very strange.
Sambika was puzzled by this, and said in a low voice: "Your knowledge of the ruins of Palo City is very shallow, what do you want to find there?"
This is a slightly contradictory sense of déjà vu, obviously knowing very little, how can you be sure that there is something in a certain wall of the Palo city ruins?
Luo didn't know what Sambika was thinking. He stared ahead without hiding anything, and said softly, "A sheet music."
"Score?" Sambika asked in surprise.
"Dark Sonata, have you heard of it?" Luo saw the silhouettes of scattered crowds and ruins in the distance, but he was almost at his destination.
"I've heard of it." Sambika said with seriousness in his eyes, "Master once told me that there are many strange objects in the world. As long as the conditions are activated, the objects will produce unknown abilities. Much like, the score for the Dark Sonata is one of a kind."
"Moreover, according to the rumors, the Dark Sonata is a piece created by the Demon King, and it is also a very dangerous score. When it is played, it will bring disaster. What do you want to find the score for?"
As for the rumors about the Dark Sonata, many people with the ability to read know that it belongs to the legendary level.
Among the many occupation systems, music hunter is also an unpopular occupation, and every music hunter is interested in this rumored devil's song.
This interest and curiosity are the same as other professions. For example, relic hunters will pursue relics that have never been seen before, and gourmet hunters will be interested in ingredients they have never seen before.
Sambika is not a music hunter, but she has a general understanding of this aspect, which surprised Luo Ting.
"You know quite a lot," Luo said.
Sambika frowned slightly and said, "You haven't answered my question yet."
"I know that song is dangerous, but I wanted to find it to get rid of the Nian on it." Luo explained that the essence was to get rid of the Nian on the song, and he wasn't lying.
In Luo's view, the Dark Sonata is very special, and it is by no means comparable to the ancient relics that he absorbed before. It may be another great opportunity for him.
"Do you still know how to get rid of thoughts?" Sambika didn't know what to say. A remover is a very rare profession, but Luo can actually get rid of thoughts? How much talent is there that she doesn't know?
"Yes, if you need this in the future, I can give you a 10% discount." Luo joked.
"..."
While the two were talking, they came to the entrance of the ruins of Palo City. There were many people standing outside, all queuing up.
