"Okay, okay, that's enough. No need to brush up. I heard that there is a place here called Devil City. How about we find a tour guide and go take a look tomorrow?"
Hearing what Li Xiao said, the fans in the live broadcast room stopped.
Studio:
"Devil City? Sounds like a place from a novel."
"That place seems very big and it's easy to get lost. Please be careful."
"Remember to find a reliable tour guide. We were tricked by the tour guide before when we traveled."
Seeing this, Li Xiao became wary of finding a tour guide.
Early the next morning, Li Xiao found a tour guide based on the place mentioned in the forum.
This tour guide is not a regular tour guide, but a local. He looks to be in his 30s, very thin, and has a shrewd look on his face.
"Little brother, just look for me. Let me tell you, no one is more familiar with this place than me. I grew up playing here."
After hearing what the tour guide said, Li Xiao felt confident.
"Okay, brother, how do we calculate the money?"
I saw the man's eyes roll.
"To be honest, not everyone can go to this Devil's City. How about I charge you 1,500 for this trip?"
Li Xiao didn't know the price of a tour guide, whether it was expensive or cheap, but when he thought about how much he usually paid for a group tour, it was more than 2,000, and this 1,500 seemed acceptable, mainly because he was reliable.
So Li Xiao paid the bill very readily.
After entering the Devil City, the tour guide took Li Xiao along the route he prescribed.
The Devil's City is so large that you can't see the edge at a glance, but in the daytime, it doesn't seem to be anything special, it's just that it's all yellow sand.
The tour guide first took Li Xiao to a complex of buildings with ethnic characteristics.
"Little brother, look, this is the Devil's City."
Li Xiao was a little curious, "Isn't the Devil City talking about this entire area?"
The tour guide shook his head inexplicably.
"No, the real Devil's City refers to this castle."
Immediately afterwards, the tour guide led Li Xiao around and told him the origin of the Devil City.
The Devil City first came out because of a herdsman. When the herdsman went to graze his cattle, he found an unseen earth mountain in the distance. He walked over curiously. Only when he got closer did he realize that this was not an earth mountain.
, this is clearly a towering castle.
The herdsman was very curious, so he walked in. As a result, after taking a few steps, a group of skeletons rushed toward him, which scared him and ran away.
After he returned home, he told the story to the old people in his clan. When the old people heard about it, they said that he had entered the Devil's City.
Legend has it that hundreds of years ago, there was a very powerful country. As a result, the king of this country offended the gods for some reason. The gods sent a group of devil troops into the city and killed the king and all his people. From then on,
This place has become the devil's paradise. According to legend, once you enter, you will never come out.
After the tour guide finished telling the story, he smiled and said, "Little brother, just listen to it as a story. How can there be so many ghosts and ghosts now?"
Li Xiao smiled and said nothing. If he had put it before, he would definitely not believe it, but now he even has the system and has obtained various skills and money through the system. What else is impossible?
Perhaps because he was afraid that Li Xiao would be frightened, the tour guide added: "There are already documents about the origin of Devil City. It was probably because there was a war at that time, and then one of the king's sons escaped and built a castle here.
, but in the end he was defeated."
Li Xiao nodded, becoming a little interested in this place, and planned to check it out carefully if he had time in the future.
The tour guide took Li Xiao to the foot of the mountain. From the foot of the mountain to the top, there were various buildings, some intact, some damaged, and even half of the walls collapsed.
Li Xiao took a look at the marks on the wall. There were indeed marks on it that looked like they had been struck by a cold weapon such as a sword. Of course, it could not be ruled out that it was caused by other reasons.
The tour guide took Li Xiao to a random room and walked in. Unexpectedly, after entering, the first thing that caught his eye was the white bones on the ground.
Li Xiao was startled and subconsciously looked at the tour guide next to him. Unexpectedly, the tour guide also looked frightened.
Li Xiao frowned and realized that something seemed a little wrong, "Is this your first time here?"
The tour guide laughed awkwardly, "Haha, no way, I've been playing here since I was a child."
Li Xiao raised his eyebrows and didn't believe everything he said.
I originally planned to show it to the fans in the live broadcast room, but I didn't expect that it was full of bones.
"Family, I have arrived inside the Devil City now and am in one of the buildings. Do you want to take a look?"
Naturally, the people in the live broadcast room also thought about it. Who is not curious?
Seeing that they all wanted to see it, Li Xiao pointed the camera at the bones on the ground.
Sure enough, the fans in the live broadcast room were shocked.
Studio:
"The anchor is not a human being!"
"Oh my god, you scared me to death"
"What is this, a model? It can't be real, right?"
Li Xiao gloated and smiled, "This is true, are you shocked? Hahahaha, I was shocked too."
Although he wanted to scare them, Li Xiao still had some conscience and put the phone away anyway.
"Okay, I won't scare you anymore, let's take you to see something else."
So Li Xiao walked out of the room and gave the audience in the live broadcast room a panoramic view.
"To be honest, it looks quite desolate here."
Immediately afterwards, the tour guide took Li Xiao and walked straight forward to the largest castle on the top of the mountain.
After entering here, Li Xiao understood why it was said that this was a castle built for the king.
Although it has been hundreds or even thousands of years, the magnificence inside is still evident.
I saw that the throne in the center was actually made of gold. There were even some gems on it. Some places were dented. It looked like the previous jewelry had been dug away.
Li Xiao didn't expect that there would be such a thing here. Logically speaking, this is an unclaimed land, and it should be pretty much the same unless it's been looted.
So Li Xiao asked the tour guide, "Brother, no one touches anything here?"
The tour guide smiled and said, "Yes, how could it not be? Someone did come here at the beginning. Look at the grooves on it. They are all gems that have been dug away."
Li Xiao didn't quite understand, "Then why didn't anyone come later?"
"It's terrible. Some people did go to get it at first, but those who took the things were either dead or crazy, and the stolen things disappeared in the end, so no one dared to come here anymore."
Li Xiao nodded. Sure enough, things in this kind of place cannot be moved.
The two of them talked while walking.
"Brother, have those archaeologists been here?"
The tour guide nodded, "That must have been here before. A mask was found on a corpse here with Portuguese writing on it. I heard that it was taken back for research."
"Brother, is there any other place here that we can look at?"
The tour guide patted his thigh and said, "Yes, why not?"
After saying that, he took Li Xiao in one direction.
"This place is different from the castle. The stones are all naturally formed."
Li Xiao took a look and realized, isn't it? The stone over there looks like a pagoda.
When I looked to the side again, I didn't know how the stone was made up. It looked very similar to BJ's Temple of Heaven.
The tour guide took Li Xiao forward and introduced to him various strange forests and rocks along the way.
While walking, Li Xiao suddenly felt as if he had stepped on something under his feet. When he raised his feet, he saw that it was a colorful stone.
Li Xiao picked up the stone and looked at it through the sunlight. It was still translucent.
The tour guide next to me saw it and recognized it at a glance, "Hey, little brother, you are lucky, this is agate."
"Agate?" Li Xiao took a look and didn't seem to see anything special, but it was indeed pretty.
The tour guide also laughed and said, "Take it and play with it. To be honest, this thing isn't worth much, but it's pretty good-looking."
Seeing him say this, Li Xiao knew that this thing was indeed worthless, otherwise with his shrewd look, he would have definitely bought it at a low price.
Although they have not been together for a long time, Li Xiao still has a preliminary understanding of this tour guide.
This tour guide seems to be quite shrewd and has a lot of tricks up his sleeve, but he seems to be a timid type. If he were asked to kill people and buy goods, he would definitely not dare to do so. This is why Li Xiao dared to follow him deeper.
The reason for walking around.
As the two of them were walking, Li Xiao inadvertently rolled his eyes and suddenly found a round white egg on the ground.
Hey, is this an extra meal here?
Li Xiao picked it up and saw that it was a bird's egg. He didn't know what kind of bird's egg it was, but if it was like this, he might not be able to boil an egg and eat it.
After taking two more steps, Li Xiao found two more eggs.
The tour guide was amazed when he saw it, "Hey, it's really strange. Why are there eggs on the ground?"
The tour guide didn’t know, and Li Xiao even less knew, but he didn’t care, as long as he had some.
After walking further, they found nothing else, so the two of them planned to return.
Seeing that the sun was already high in the sky and the sunlight was getting hotter, they randomly found a boneless room and sat in it.
Li Xiao brought a few sandwiches he made in the morning and a cup of milk tea in his backpack this time, the same salty milk tea he brought last time.
The tour guide just brought a piece of bread and a bottle of mineral water.
"Brother, just eat this."
The tour guide nodded, "It's harmful. It only takes one bite."
Although he said that, the tour guide couldn't help but glance at the sandwich in Li Xiao's hand from the corner of his eye.
Li Xiao sighed. Fortunately, he had made a few more in the morning, so he took out another one from his backpack and handed it to the tour guide.
"You can't just eat this bread, you can eat this sandwich."
The tour guide pretended to decline, "This is so embarrassing." Then he took it.
Li Xiao doesn't mind either, it's just a sandwich.
However, there were people in the live broadcast room who looked down upon this tour guide.
Studio:
"This man really loves petty gains."
"He must have been miserable."
"Anchor, be careful of him, don't be fooled by him."
But there are also people who habitually exude their Holy Mother's heart.
"Don't say that, it's just a sandwich."
"This anchor is so stingy. He only gives one person so many sandwiches."
As they talked, the two people started to quarrel. Seeing this, Li Xiao felt like one of them was bigger than the other two.
"Okay, everyone, stop arguing, it's not a big problem."
Li Xiao acted as a peacemaker in the middle, and then took out the three eggs from his backpack.
As a food blogger, would you go out without a pot? Let me tell you, you will.
But Li Xiao brought a big bowl, which he could barely use.
The two of them went to collect some firewood. Fortunately, the tour guide smoked. Otherwise, if they wanted to make a fire, they would have to learn how the ancients drilled wood to make fire.
The two of them raised the fire very smoothly, and then made a simple stove. Just as they were about to throw the eggs in, they suddenly remembered that if they wanted to boil the eggs, they didn't have water!
The two men looked at each other in confusion as they watched the fire rise.
"What should I do? How about we put it out again?"
Li Xiao thought for a moment, "No, let's put the egg directly inside and cook it for him."
The tour guide nodded and thought it was feasible.
So Li Xiao used a branch to throw the egg at the bottom of the fire, because if it was baked directly on the fire, the egg would easily explode.
The two of them were eating and waiting for the egg to be ready.
"Brother, are you a local?"
The tour guide smiled "hehe" and said, "Yes, I grew up here."
Li Xiao nodded doubtfully. If you say he is not, he does know a lot about this place. But if you say he is, he will act as if he is here for the first time.
"Brother, have you been playing here all the time in this devil city?"
At this time, the eggs were ready. Li Xiao pulled the eggs out and gave one to the tour guide.
The tour guide took the egg and blew on it while opening the egg.
"This egg is really good. Don't tell me, it's really delicious when you make it like this."
Li Xiao smiled. After all, he was also a food blogger. Apart from anything else, he had a pretty good grasp of the heat.
"Haha, you can try it yourself when you have time. Just be careful, bury it under the fire and don't throw it directly on top."
The tour guide was a little confused and asked, "Why?"
"Hazard, if you put this thing on a fire, it will be easily heated unevenly, so it will explode easily."
The tour guide nodded understandingly.
Li Xiao was about to open an egg when he suddenly realized that the egg didn't feel right.
He didn't pay attention when he first picked it up. He just felt that the egg was rougher and heavier. But when he held it in his hand, he realized that it was not an egg at all. It was more like a stone.
