Chapter 23: Roman Holidays (1)

"There are three days left until the end of our European summer camp, everyone has done very well in the previous days, I hope the last three days will continue to be maintained, let's have a perfect holiday together, our first day in the Eternal City of Rome, starting from the Colosseum, visiting the Arch of Constantine, walking to Piazza Venezia, then visiting the Capitoline Museum, and finally going to the Mouth of Truth that swept the world because of "Roman Holiday....."

Han Huan, the tour guide on the bus, still said the precautions and today's itinerary according to the book, after more than ten days of travel, the students' emotions are not so high, let alone the tour guide.

When the mottled ancient building appeared in Cheng Mo's field of vision, he naturally thought of the landing interface of the Chosen One, which was similar to the Colosseum, but a more magnificent building, and in the huge arch, there was also a huge defender wearing a black cloak holding a sword in both hands, and the tip of the sword was on the ground, in Cheng Mo's impression, it seemed that there were statues in the arch of the original ancient Roman Colosseum.

What the relationship between the two was, Cheng Mo had no way of knowing, just as he did not understand why Sumerian mythology was so similar to the Bible.

There are so many mysteries hidden in human history, even with Cheng Mo's reading, there is no way to verify whether those records are true and which are false, and he urgently needs to discuss them with Xie Minyun.....

Cheng Mo followed the team to the towering oldest gymnasium in human history, and listened to the tour guide Han Huan explain how gladiators fight with beasts, in fact, gladiators and beasts fight is just an appetizer, and the real drama is the battle between gladiators and gladiators, which is commonly known as PVP.

Cheng Mo really can't imagine how ordinary people can kill big cats like tigers and lions that can weigh up to three hundred and fifty kilograms, ordinary humans encounter this kind of beast with their bare hands, and they are almost killed in seconds when they meet, even if they are excellent hunters, a person, in the era of cold weapons, without the help of traps, it is difficult to be the opponent of this fierce beast.

Regardless of the warriors in full metal armor, they can easily defeat tigers and lions.

As for Wu Song, which is known to the Chinese people, there is indeed a person, but fighting the tiger is completely fictional.

Today's weather is still very good, after so many days in Europe, they rarely encounter rainy weather, and even if there is, it will be over in the next minute, and they have never encountered the situation of the next whole day.

Cheng Mo glanced back at Xie Minyun at the end of the crane, she usually wears a skirt, but today she rarely wore a white T-shirt and a pair of blue skinny leggings, although she only wore a pair of flat fisherman's shoes, but those legs were still outrageously slender.

In the bustling tourist army, she is undoubtedly the one who attracts attention, and I don't know how many people intentionally or unintentionally include her in their lenses.

Cheng Mo had to sigh that Xie Minyun really wore anything to the realm of beauty, he didn't look at it much, voyeurism was not his hobby, so he took a few steps behind without a trace, wanting to get close to Xie Minyun naturally, but when he slowly dragged to the last moment of the team, Xie Minyun suddenly took several steps forward and walked into the middle of the team.

There is no doubt that Xie Minyun did it on purpose, which made Cheng Mo a little crying and laughing.

Sure enough, dealing with girls is a super troublesome thing.

But Cheng Mo is not the kind of person who will back down after making a decision, yesterday was indeed an inappropriate opportunity, so now it has nothing to do with the opportunity, so he can only come hard, so Cheng Mo walked directly to Xie Minyun with an expressionless face.

The people who were originally standing next to Xie Minyun saw that Cheng Mo was coming over, and they all immediately got out of the way, as if they were all looking forward to the performance of the happy couple to present a performance of Mars hitting the earth.

Xie Minyun had obviously been paying attention to Cheng Mo's movements, and before Cheng Mo approached her and didn't have time to speak, Xie Minyun didn't give Cheng Mo a look, and said directly and coldly: "Don't talk to me, I don't want to talk to you now." ”

Cheng Mo was silent for a while, and then said calmly: "Okay." Then he walked back and became the man at the end of the crane.....

Xie Minyun was still a little imperceptible proud, thinking that he was right to delete Cheng Mo, and sure enough, he took the initiative to talk to him, but the moment Cheng Mo said "good", his really angry eyebrows trembled.

In the next whole day, Cheng Mo didn't talk to Xie Minyun, so Xie Minyun's face didn't look good, the Italian little brothers who came up to find Xie Minyun in Milan yesterday can still get a polite response, and the Italian little brothers who are looking for Xie Minyun to talk to in Rome today have all suffered, and they can only hear a cold "I don't want to talk to you." ”

In the evening, Cheng Mo finally waited for the moment he had been waiting for, after taking a shower, closing his eyes and lying on the bed, Cheng Mo felt a little nervous for the first time, because he was not sure whether the Pantheon mentioned above by Uroboros was referring to the Roman Pantheon, after all, the clue left by his father was "The Ring of the Nibelungen", which is a Norse legend, and the only thing that can be linked to the Pantheon in it is Valhalla, but in reality there is no building called "Valhalla".

After the little fat man Wei Wei finished taking a shower and playing with the mobile phone turned off the lights to sleep, Cheng Mo glanced at the Uloporos on his wrist, opened the map to make sure that there were no red dots representing other gladiators around, and then instantly let Lin Zhinuo appear in the unmonitored safety staircase.

This is the first time he has used a carrier in Europe, and on the night he met Napoleon VII in Paris, Cheng Mo actually wanted to use the carrier to go to the opening ceremony of Mr. Xie Minyun's gallery to find out, but because he didn't know the address, and it was inconvenient to ask Xie Minyun about it, plus the two blonde men that day aroused his alarm, so he didn't use the carrier.

After that, Cheng Mo encountered the red dot popping up on the watch three more times, twice in Germany and once in Austria.

It was also thanks to Cheng Mo's caution that in fact, the people sent by the other party to spy on him followed them all the way to Germany and Austria, because Switzerland was inconvenient to enter, and because they felt that they were indeed very ordinary people, the tracking was interrupted.

After Cheng Mo transformed into Lin Zhinuo, he did not take the elevator, but quickly went downstairs from the safety staircase, anyway, the whole building is only six floors, and walked out of this hotel called Hotel Montecarlo near the train station, the clothes are summer clothes that have been changed a long time ago, black cotton sweatpants, black T-shirt and black baseball cap, Lin Zhinuo's passport and ID card from Bai Xiuxiu are also in the trouser pocket, and there are hundreds of euros prepared in it.

Because the hotel is located near the most convenient Rome train station, Cheng Mo walked to the taxi parking lot, directly found a white Mercedes-Benz taxi, and told the curly-haired fat driver to go to the "Silver Tower Square", after the driver nodded, Cheng Mo got into the back seat, which was only two streets away from the Pantheon.

Mercedes-Benz cars began to run on the stone road with a clear sense of concave and convex, Rome at night was wrapped in light yellow honey, although there were no high-rise buildings, but the buildings along the way were full of a classical charm, beautiful and dazzling, but Cheng Mo had no intention of appreciating all this.

When he arrived at Yinta Square, Cheng Mo paid for the car, put on a mask, and walked briskly in the direction of the Pantheon on the stone road.

The pink, beige cube buildings were covered with dense windows, but no light came through these windows, but the dim street lamps illuminated the whole street as if it were covered with oiled paper, and Rome was unusually quiet at midnight, with only a few people strolling.

Cheng Mo saw the obelisk standing in front of the Pantheon from a distance, he had seen it many times in the photo, behind it was the classic Corinthian stone pillar portico of the Pantheon, shining like an immortal temple under the light, it was so breathtaking, straight to your vision, evoking your infinite reverie of the ancient heroes and splendid era.

Cheng Mo walked to the door, there were guards outside, the huge bronze door more than seven meters high was tightly closed, the relief on it was clearly visible, seeing that it was impossible to enter the front, Cheng Mo did not stop much, and planned to walk around the Pantheon directly, and there was no other way to see.

It's a pity to go around the huge building that towers in a circle, on both sides are the moat-like corridors that sink into the ground, although there are occasional doors on the side, but they are tightly locked, Cheng Mo did not find any possible passage, while thinking about how to enter, Cheng Mo was surprised how the Romans completed such a magnificent volcanic rock building more than 2,000 years ago.

After Cheng Mo turned around three times, except for brute force cracking, there was only one way that might be discovered, and there seemed to be no other way, he returned to the front of the Pantheon, and looked at the two huge bronze doors from a distance for a long time, hoping to see what was different, in the quiet air, the sound of the leather shoes of the guards hovering at the door and the sound of batons hitting pants could be heard clearly.

Cheng Mo thought to himself, could it be that he should go up and ask the tireless security guard: "May I ask how to go on the path of the Chosen One?" He looked at the map again, there were no signs on it, and there were no hints, and he said in his heart: Do you have to come to the body?

But since I'm here, I don't seem to be willing to go in.

Cheng meditated for a while and planned to climb to the huge vaulted dome of the Pantheon, and go in through the round hole to find out, although it was a trouble to come out, but it didn't matter if the carrier came out anyway, it just went back to the body.

Cheng Mo, who had made up his mind, began to circle around the Pantheon again, looking for a safe and hidden path, and when he came to a wall with broken marks, Cheng Mo glanced at the translucent map and made sure that there was no one around, so he jumped lightly and jumped directly onto the wall more than two meters away from him.

It was still at the base of the Pantheon, and then Cheng Mo jumped up another section of higher wall without hesitation, all the way to the cylindrical main building of the Pantheon. If the entire main building were an ordinary person, it would be impossible to climb to the top of the Pantheon, which had no point of borrowing at all, without the help of tools.

But there is no difficulty in the carrier, Cheng Mo jumped hard and grabbed the protruding eaves more than ten meters away from the base, then adjusted his posture, took a breath, kicked down the volcanic rock wall with both feet, supported his hands, and rushed upwards like a cannonball with a frog jumping.

This time the strength was a little bigger, and the speed was really much faster, but the reaction of the carrier was too amazing, and when he passed the second eaves, Cheng Mo still grabbed the raised stones, but he didn't stop, but gently supported it, and then jumped directly onto the dome of the Pantheon unconsciously.

In order to facilitate the maintenance of the dome, there are steps to repair, Cheng Mo looked at the map again to judge that there was no one, and quickly ran to the steps, heading towards the round hole in the center of the dome.

A bend of moonlight hung high above his head, the air was slightly cool, and he was surrounded by European-style buildings taller than the Pantheon.

Cheng Mo galloped lightly on this ancient building like an assassin, and when he reached the round hole in the center of the dome of the Pantheon, he possessed a little probe and saw the true face of this immortal ruin.

The moonlight casts a large circular spot of light on the inside of the temple, like the moon in a well.

However, this spot is not round, but lacks a small point.

Cheng Mo raised his eyes at the map, and once again made sure that there was no one, only the guards at the door were lingering, so he jumped down from the hall of the Pantheon, which was more than thirty meters high from the dome, without hesitation.

So, what started out as a small black dot began to grow larger and larger in the round spot, and then turned into a figure.....
