Remember [lnmao.org] in one second, fast update, no pop-up window, free to read!

The business in the tavern is hot. It seems that the recently discovered "remains" have flooded this place with a large number of strangers. Of course, the most concentrated place for these strangers is the local tavern. I and I finally found two empty seats against the wall, but there was already someone across the table, a middle-aged man, sitting next to a thin figure hidden in a black hooded robe.

"You are also looking for the ruins?" The middle-aged man across the table heard Ailuo excitedly telling stories about the big forest and the expedition, so he looked at me curiously.

I looked up and looked at the other person. This is a strong-looking man in his forties, with a dark complexion, solid muscles, short black hair, a big square face, clear eyebrow lines, and a fairly reliable look. He was wearing a short robe style different from that of the locals. He looked like a short-sleeved training suit. The gray-black dress was a bit old, but it looked very clean. The dress was tightly hooped on the other side. On the muscles, it seems a little bit not fit-but it does show the other person's strong body.

And beside this middle-aged macho is a black giant sword that looks almost one person tall against the wall. Needless to say, it is also his weapon, so to speak ... It ’s a warrior, it should be Elro The "Adventure" mentioned.

"A little interested," I haven't fully understood the situation here. The so-called ruins, local churches, forest Monster (let's just say it) don't know what it means, so I can only answer vaguely, hoping to learn from each other's I got more information during the conversation, "I am a scholar who travels everywhere, and is interested in anomalies everywhere. This time it is not for the remains themselves, but for the stories."

First declare that you do n’t know much about the ruins, and save the other party ’s true interest in discussing it with yourself. As for the identity of this tourist scholar ... Hey, do n’t say it, I find myself getting more and more I am used to this way of lying, and the scholarship is definitely a golden answer. Anyway, no matter where you appear to be maverick, you can use "I am a scholar" to fool the past. After all, the scholarship is a bit uncomfortable. It's okay, right, airhead or something for a long time ...

The Shandora ball floated over and hit me on the back of my head: "This is the same statement, you can't think of something creative next time-it's okay to say that you are a novelist and come out to collect style."

I answered in my heart with the same expression on my face: "The eighth person who wrote the novel starved to death at home, and you see a few who have the money to come out to gather style."

The middle-aged man across the table froze for a moment, then smiled happily: "Aha, scholar, I really can't see it. The scholar I know sits on the bottom sixty, his beard is longer than his hair, I have n’t seen you as young ... but you do n’t look like a person who is fighting an adventure, the book is so full of gas, and you can only learn. Hey, my name is Leon, I am an explorer ... More than an adventurer The senior kind. "

It seems that the other person is a very good person, I smiled and owed to me: "It's easy to say, just call me Chen Jun."

"Chen Jun? Is this a name?" Leon sucked his mouth, and seemed to feel weird about this strange name. "Scholar names have become popular these years. By the way, let me introduce this non-talking guy around me, Aoba, my girlfriend. They are all from abroad. It ’s not easy to leave home. There are many ways for multiple friends. Aoba, greet people. "

The person sitting next to Leon was all covered in a black hooded cloak. Previously, he could only be judged to be a thin woman by his body shape. at this moment only opened the hood. I was surprised to find that the other person was A beautiful Pixie/Elf with long light green hair!

"Hello, I am Aoba, a trainee priest of the Lost Gods, come here with Leon to take risks."

The Pixie/Elf woman greeted a little bit cautiously, and then pulled the hood up again to cover most of her face. Leon gently patted the other person ’s shoulder and smiled at me: "Do n’t mind, she ’s not that good. He likes to talk, and he has been silly to study his head all day long. "

I smiled indifferently, and then talked about two non-nutritious daily routines, while groaning in my heart while collecting the customs of the planet: Lost God? Does the local denomination give itself such a name? This does not sound auspicious ... Is it related to the era of civilization?

However, it is obviously not convenient to ask this kind of thing hurriedly. Let ’s wait for more people to learn more slowly. The little girl Ai Lu has been left aside by the adults just now, and no one is even listening to her story. at this moment is finally a little impatient. The little child has a little patience, and will be restless after a while. ? Would you like to go to the blacksmith shop? It's not too early, as soon as the sun falls between the gaps of the two mountains on the horizon, even one day has passed! If you continue to guide, you need to add 20 copper plates! "

I just remembered that I still "employed" a guide, and Leon across the table showed a curious look. Obviously he had never heard of such a remote town as a "guide". After all, this is just the leader's identity imagined by the little girl from a bunch of knight novels. Seeing Leon ’s expression, I could only smile a little embarrassedly: "I do n’t know whose children ... I just do n’t know this very well, let her lead the way to find a place to stay."

Leon grinned understandingly: "Also, fortunately, our group came early, and I am afraid that there will be a lot of tents outside the town in two days, every time the ruins are discovered or there is a right to explore where the church has opened. , A large group of people gathered together, and there are many scholars like you who are not interested in relics, specializing in history ... Uh, do n’t say it, go slowly, maybe we can still They met on the ancient tower. "

While I was holding on to the little girl who was becoming manic, I greeted the clerk over to settle the bill, and then the two returned to the street outside. Although only staying in the tavern for less than half an hour, this is exactly the day when the sun slowly sets down. It seems that the locals here do not have the habit of hanging out after the sun sets, so the street has become deserted. Little, the remaining pedestrians are either dressed in different styles that are not the same as the local clothes, or at a glance look like a servant, needless to say, how many are still swaying outside are strangers ... adventurers.

So many foreigners are pouring into their towns, and I do n’t know what the locals will feel. Maybe many people feel upset, but some people who open pubs like Pasali will feel that the business has become better and happy. Endless. As for the little girl Ai Lu, of course, she is also very happy: she finally had the opportunity to get in touch with the World she saw in the story book, although I guess she will soon find that the books are all deceptive, this World There is no such thing as princes rubbing shoulders to see the girl taking a bath by the Xitou River in the village ...

Pastari, the proprietress of the tavern, also said that she would find someone to notify Ailu ’s family to pick up the little girl, but I did n’t see the latter ’s parents until Ailu and I left the tavern. The dwarf aunt missed it.

“I ’m telling you, we ’ve seen big people in this town before, do n’t look small, but the big forest next to us is home to one of the Pixie/Elf five cities ... Although it is deepest in the forest and has a barrier Ordinary people never go in, but Pixie/Elf often ran out to choose adventurer partners in the town. Elf Clan has an adult calendar to practice. You know, they will leave the forest after a certain age to contact other race. The most famous Dragon Warrior in our town is to team up with a Pixie/Elf ... "

The story of little girl Ai Lu is not over yet. Now she is talking about the seventh dragon warrior in her town, and I am looking at the quiet town and the sun setting in the sky, thinking How to arrange your own itinerary for the next few days.

The Admiral is still hovering on the track and is invisible and will not be discovered by the locals-in fact, depending on their technical level today, it seems that they ca n’t find anything in space. I originally thought that Shandora This is a very high degree of interstellar civilization, but the space station on the didn't expect track are all ancient equipment that has been asleep for thousands of thousands of years. There is only one feudal farming civilization on the surface, so there is no letting It is necessary for the admiral to appear.

What do you do in the next few days?

This planet seems to be hiding some secrets. Although it has nothing to do with the empire, it is idle anyway. Just look at the situation here. at the same time can allow the Admiral to release some probes and go to the surroundings galaxy to find out if there are more signs of life. When we saw the equipment in space, we judged that the civilization on this planet has developed more. Superb aerospace technology, although they now seem to be out of date, they may still find more of their relics in a galaxy of surroundings, and maybe even a colonial star that has not experienced civilization outages-although this chance is not High but can look forward to it.

The Admiral in remote space quickly received orders, and several factories located at the lower section of its longitudinal arm immediately started to assemble a batch of detectors. These detectors then rushed out of the ejection channel and were in space. A flash in the middle.

What I ’m looking for this time may be the extinction of life, but the remnants of the colonial site (according to experience, the interstellar and above civilizations after the collapse of science and technology will often leave many such relics, just like the Empire Those left without signs of life (large scale fortress), and these relics are generally not easy to be found because they are dead, so I let the detector to scan surroundings galaxy in a low-speed and high-precision way, do n’t let it go in the vast space, of course it will It takes longer, but there is nothing else to do anyway.

at this moment Ailu has already told the story of several demon kings who have destroyed World under the town (the planet is really strong, and the population density of the demon king is almost catching up with Human Race), I think she will say no in a while After finishing, I thought that I was going to find a local residence here to experience the local life, so I had to pat her hair: "Ai Lu, the story is almost the same, I think it's still far from the grocery store ... Take me first Go find a place to live, do n’t you mean to open a hotel at home? "

"Yes, the hotel!" Ellu suddenly got up and pulled me forward, "just ahead, my family used to open the hotel, but then there were too few guests and they didn't continue to open, this time came A lot of adventurers, I just want my mother to continue to open! You are the first guest to reopen ... Ah, the sun goes down! "

Ai Lu looked at the last rays of the sky, turned around and shouted at me, reaching out: "Twenty copper plates for Shenghui, guide fee!"

How can I continue to pay for at this moment (although these copper plates are not earned by myself) as the wrongdoer? So I touched the head of Ai Lu: "Wait until you check in at your hotel."

The little girl thought for a while, but she did n’t think there was any problem. Instead, she happily agreed, and then dragged me for a few more minutes. Finally, a two-story building that seemed quite large appeared to us. before.

This big house looks somewhat similar to the traditional rental apartment like on the Earth. It has a simple appearance. The main body of the strip is divided into two floors. The upper floor has neatly arranged windows. It should be all guest rooms. The lower floor probably serves as the main residence and various functional rooms. A cylindrical auxiliary house can also be seen next to the big house. Now I know that it is basically a warehouse and a place for livestock.

Ailu happily dragged me to the main entrance of Dachang Sikai, and yelled while running: "Mom! Mom! There is a guest! It is a guest who came to stay! In addition, Ailu made money today!"

I walked into the main entrance and found that there was a very spacious front hall facing me. A young woman wearing a coarse clothed dress heard Ailu's yell coming from the lifts the head behind the desk case in the corner of the front hall.

This is a very beautiful woman. Although she is already a mother, she can still see the style of her youth. A black hair stands up high, with flower-shaped hair ornaments slanting behind her head, which looks mature and dignified. Although the skin is slightly dark, it is a healthy and clean color. The disadvantage is that the other party has a feeling of exhaustion on the face that seems to be unable to wake up, and eyes is almost completely closed due to drowsiness, and the bottom of the eyes also wears Dark circles with insufficient rest, this listless look is a bit strange.

A pile of books and papers was spread out on the table in front of the other party. It seemed that she was sorting things such as accounts before. She looked up at the door and quickly found me as a stranger, so she was puzzled. Expression: "Accommodation? We are no longer open here."

...... Sure enough, this is the case. The little girl Ai Lu is really a bear boy with super-moving power and super unreliable, but I was dragged by her and ran for a long time without any turning back. This is really ...

"Uh, I heard Elu say there is a hotel here," I tearfully grinned at the corner of my mouth, and then pointed to Elul, who had ran towards her mother, "What am I from a foreign country ... Scholar, come Studying the ruins here, I thought there was a place to stay. If I knew that your house hadn't opened the door, I would go somewhere else, and it was too late this day. "

Actually, I do n’t care about the accommodation problem. If I ca n’t, I can go outside and find a place where no one can open the dwelling cabin, or send it directly to the Admiral, the proper treatment of the presidential suite. The customs of this planet have generated interest, so I just want to experience what the local houses are like. Of course, this matter can not be forced-bear children killed.

"Aliens?" Ailu's mother looked really tired, even speaking with the feeling of weakly and without strength (dispirited). She looked at the sky outside and people walking on the street, and she remembered something like, "It was again What ancient tower in the forest attracted? Adventurer? "

"Scholar, it's a scholar!" Ai Lu looked anxious than me and jumped to help explain, "It's a very powerful person, even better than an adventurer! I'm making money today!"

"Making money?" The second time Ailu ’s mother heard the word, she focused her attention on it, and then she suddenly remembered something and stood up in a panic, dragging herself towards daughter|girl Here comes, "Did this child trouble you? She is usually a little whimsical and often troubles others. You should not take anything seriously when she says ... Did you give her money?"

Although I want to nod my head at at this moment, I feel that when I see the horrified look of Elune's frightened rabbit ... it should be nodded. Oh! bear children don't give a lesson and are not completely distorted!

So I nodded.

"Hurry up and apologize to this gentleman!" Ai Lu ’s mother immediately showed signs of violent running, and looking at her expression, it was clear that a bear child was not the first time to cause trouble, and the latter ushered in a scene on the spot Crackling preaching, but with my years of experience in dealing with bear children, it is impossible for a bear child like Ailu who has already entered the secondary school to go to the street to foolish people. The little girl was trained, so she hurriedly played around the circle: "cough cough, in fact, it was not much trouble, and she took me around the town for a long time, and the guide was very dedicated. Without the little girl to help me, it was really both eyes. "

Thinking about it, I still did n’t say anything about the map. It ’s not good for the little girl to be beaten.

Ailu ’s mother did n’t mean to look at me, and she looked at the sky outside again. Only then nodded: "It ’s definitely too late for you to go to the hotel with a foreigner at this moment, so stay here, anyway. There are quite a lot of empty rooms upstairs, and I will go up to help you prepare a house later. By the way, this kid really wants ... Oh, it must be twenty copper plates, she knows this one. "

I: "..." knowing daughter Mo Ruo Oh!

"Twenty copper plates are acceptable as accommodation fees?" I chuckled. "Just looking at your prices here, it should be similar."

"Actually, the accommodation fee is nothing. We haven't done business for a long time, but you are willing to pay the bill. I will prepare dinner for you, and I will pay for the meal," Ailu's mother smiled gently. Although there was still a sense of inexplicable fatigue on her face, she still brought out a dignified and solemn temperament, and then she took Ailu to the second floor, "You are here wait a moment, I will prepare Room. Please do n’t move around everywhere. "

After Ai Lu and her mother slowly disappeared on the wooden stairs, I whispered to the Shandora ball in the invisible state: "A person with a good temperament does not feel like a civilian."

"I don't feel much about civilians being civilians," the Shandora ball moved lightly towards the scrolls that Ailu's mother had read before. She should just look at it curiously, but suddenly made a surprised voice, "Huh? A'Jun Come see this! "
