Soon, the morning passed. Lin Huang brought them to lunch and headed to the hotel.
After checking in, Fatso and Zhang Mengmeng did not stay in the hotel room for long.
Under Lin Huang's arrangement, they began touring the attractions in the foothold.
As the biggest and oldest foothold in Division7, the White Capital had many attractions and historical sites. Due to the vast land area, there were many natural attractions. If he wanted to visit all of them, it would probably take him more than a month.
Lin Huang arranged for Fatso and Zhang Mengmeng to visit the attractions that were closer to the hotel. If Fatso and Zhang Mengmeng had enough time, they would visit the attractions that were further away. By then, they could change hotels according to their needs.
Lin Huang took a stroll with the rest of them next to a huge lake.
"This lake is called Quiet Moon Lake. It's one of the most famous attractions in the White Capital. It's very beautiful at night. The hotel that I've chosen for you guys isn't far from here. You can enjoy the night view of the lake from your floor. There are a few historical sites around the lake. The most famous one is the residence of a demigod, Quiet Moon Temple … "
"This is the lake named after Demigod Shizuki?" It was clear that Fatso had heard of Demigod Shizuki before as he looked at the lake solemnly.
"Yes, the White Capital was much smaller than it is now. The lake was a nameless lake and there weren't many people around. Demigod Shizuki built a house and lived by the lake. That's how the lake got its name. "Lin Huang smiled and nodded.
"I know that!" Lin Xin took over the conversation immediately. "More than 200 years ago, Demigod Shizuki fell in love with a man. She built a house by the lake and announced to the world that she would live by the lake for ten years. She would wait for one person by the lake for ten years, "Lin Xin said immediately. If that person came within ten years, she would stay with that person forever and never interfere with the affairs of the world. If she didn't show up within the next ten years, she would head to the virtual realm and never return … However, once the ten years were up, Demigod Shizuki disappeared. Some said that she went to the Void Zone, while others said that she left with that man. However, from the beginning to the end, no one knew who that man was … "
Fatso listened to the story attentively. Zhang Mengmeng, on the other hand, looked a little distracted. She did not seem to be interested in the story of the demigod.
"Brother, do you think Demigod Shizuki has waited for the right person?" Lin Xin suddenly turned her head and asked Lin Huang.
"I'm afraid only she knows the answer to this question." Lin Huang shook his head and smiled.
"My guess is that they must have found it! Meng Meng, what do you think? " Fatso said and looked at Zhang Mengmeng who was next to him. In fact, his answer contained his own expectations.
"That … I don't know." Zhang Mengmeng quickly waved her hand.
The few of them walked along the lake. After visiting a few scenic spots, it was almost four o 'clock in the afternoon.
"Jingyue Mosque is just ahead. Let's go for dinner after we're done." Lin Huang looked at the time and decided to visit Jingyue Mosque as the last scenic spot for the day.
The scenic spots around Jingyue Lake were free. One only needed to scan their ID to enter. There were no restrictions.
It was the summer break for students, so the scenic spot was crowded. Jingyue Mosque was actually not big. It was just a building with a small courtyard. However, as a scenic spot, the Coalition government had expanded the area around it to more than thirty times its original size. The scenic spot was divided into two parts. One was the ruins of Jingyue Mosque while the other was the expansion area.
After entering the queue, although there were many people, it was not very crowded.
Lin Huang and the rest spent more than an hour visiting the expansion area. Seeing that there were fewer tourists, they then entered the ruins of Jingyue Mosque.
Entering the small courtyard of the ruins, Lin Huang found that the ruins were well-preserved. He also vaguely noticed that the entire ruins seemed to be covered by a special energy. It might have been left behind by Demigod Shizuki or by other powerhouses to prevent the ruins from being destroyed.
The courtyard of the ruins was not big. It was only about 200 square meters. There were flowers of various colors in the courtyard. The soil on the ground was moist and there were obvious traces of pruning on the bushes. There should be people taking care of the place all year round.
The group walked along the cobblestone path to the center of the courtyard where there was a big stone.
Many men and women surrounded the stone and placed their handprints on it in pairs.
"What are they doing?" Fatso was confused. However, he could tell that those who placed their handprints on the stone were couples.
"This is a Love Stone. It is said that if two people who truly love each other place their hands on the stone, their handprints will light up together," Lin Xin explained immediately. Innocent girls were always very sensitive to topics related to love.
"Let's try it!" Fatso quickly pulled Zhang Mengmeng and walked forward.
Zhang Mengmeng hesitated for a moment but still followed them.
The two of them queued for more than ten minutes and finally, it was their turn. Lin Huang and Lin Xin were watching from the side.
Fatso and Zhang Mengmeng placed their palms on the stone together. After a while, the stone did not move at all.
"Eh, why didn't it light up?" Lin Xin felt that it was a little strange because when others pressed their handprints, their handprints would more or less light up. It was rare for there to be no movement at all like the two of them.
Lin Huang glanced at Zhang Mengmeng with a flash of doubt in his eyes. He then looked at Fatso. Fatso's face was full of depression. "How could this be?"
"Don't worry about it. This thing doesn't work sometimes." Lin Huang patted Fatso's back. "It's getting late. Let's walk around the building and then find a place to have dinner."
"Sometimes it doesn't work?" Fatso looked at Lin Huang with a serious face.
"No matter how sophisticated a machine is, there will be times when it breaks down, not to mention this is just a stone." Lin Huang pulled Fatso away.
At the side, Zhang Mengmeng lowered her head and did not say a word. She seemed to be a little depressed.
Seeing that, Lin Xin quickly comforted her, "Sister Mengmeng, don't be sad. This thing might not work."
"Thank you." Zhang Mengmeng forced a smile.
Under Lin Huang's lead, the few of them stepped into the building.
The entire building was built with a special kind of wooden material. There was a faint fragrance of grass and wood in the house. As soon as Lin Huang stepped in, he felt refreshed.
Fatso's mood also improved a little. He could not help but exclaim, "It's so exquisite..."
"Girls are meticulous. A man would definitely not be able to make it so exquisite." Lin Huang nodded with a smile.
Lin Xin did not exclaim. She had been to this scenic spot before and more than once.
It was also Lin Huang's first time here. Hence, Lin Xin took the initiative to take on the role of a tour guide. She led the few of them forward while explaining.
