Chapter 5 Young Ah Pan
After all, curiosity could not compare to exhaustion, so I slept in a daze for a few hours. Zhan Yue got up and pushed open the window, the sun was dazzling, but it was extraordinarily kind, the sunlight in this world has a magical magic. The room he was in was on the third floor, and the window was on the green courtyard, with birds singing and flowers fragrant, like an oil painting.
changed the clothes sent by Xiao Er, and put the backpack away. The backpack is full of things brought from the original world, and maybe they will be useful in the future. The inn was luxurious, and the security was very good, so he was relieved to leave his backpack inside.
"That way, you won't be stared at." Zhan Yue looked at the blue regular clothes on his body, it was a very well-fitting suit, which did not affect the movement at all, and the fabric was extremely soft to the touch. "It seems that Xiao Er didn't cheat me."
After breakfast at the inn, Zhanyue plans to get to know the world.
Unlike late at night, the Fulai Inn during the day can be described as full of people and traffic. Some walked, some rode mule-like pack animals, and some sat in mechanical vehicles like rickshaws, which were pulled by coachmen.
As soon as Zhan Yue walked out, a bunch of people quickly surrounded him, startling him.
"This man, get in my car, my car is comfortable."
"Get in my car, I'm most familiar with Sunburst City, and I'll be able to get you there quickly wherever you go."
"Get on me... No, it's a mouthful, get in my car."
"I just bought a new car, it's clean."
A group of coachmen are guarding outside the inn to grab business, the city of the rising sun has a large flow of people, the road is complicated, for people who don't know to take this rickshaw is a good choice, the driver is equivalent to the driver and guide. And these ordinary people also make a living by selling their physical strength, and the people who come out of the inn are the ones who are most in need.
In a pile of tall figures, Zhan Yue saw a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, like a little chicken in a group of big men. The young man also noticed that Zhan Yue was looking at him, and hurriedly squeezed over.
"This lord, take my car, I grew up in Rising Sun City and am very familiar with it." The boy said, his eyes full of pleading.
"You look so thin, can you pull a car?" Zhan Yue asked rhetorically.
The young man patted his chest and promised: "No problem, there are mostly flat roads in Rising Sun City, and my car has been modified by Master Lu, which is very labor-saving, don't look down on me because of my young age, I pull more than ten guests a day without panting." ”
"That's you." Zhan Yue pointed to the young man and said. The other drivers around were disappointed and dispersed, waiting for the next target. Zhan Yue looked at this young man, I am afraid that there is something unspeakable about coming out to do heavy work at such a young age.
"Master, where are you going?" The young man asked politely, and invited Zhanyue into the car, which was not big enough to sit for a person. Zhan Yue also didn't expect so many rickshaws in the Rising Sun City, but he didn't know that this was deliberate by the Rising Sun City Lord, except for the caravan, many large mounts were forbidden to enter the city, which not only maintained the city's security and hygiene, but also left a way for these ordinary people to make a living.
"Take me around the Rising Sun City and show me about the important sights and buildings." Zhan Yue said.
The young man's eyes lit up when he heard this, this is a big job, and serving him alone is worth a day's work. "Don't worry, I grew up in Rising Sun City since I was a child, I know the city well, and I guarantee to complete the task perfectly!"
Zhan Yue smiled, and then asked, "What's your name, since you said that you know everything about this city, then I have to test you." ”
"Just call me Ah Pan." The young man said, still a little panicked in his heart, not knowing what questions Zhan Yue would ask.
Zhan Yue pointed to the towering white pagoda and asked, "Who built this tower, why does it shine at night, and what is the purpose of its luminescence?" ”
"That's it? That's it? The young man put his mind at ease, it turned out that Zhan Yuezhen was just 'testing him', which could be regarded as basic common sense, but he didn't dare to show arbitrary confusion, but replied honestly: "This tower was invented by the goddess of Tongming in ancient times, and was cast by thousands of craftsmen, so it is called Tongming Tower." All the million-level cities on the Continent of Ten Thousand Souls will be guarded by a Tongming Tower, which absorbs sunlight as energy during the day, and shines at night, and the light will envelop the Rising Sun City and the surrounding Acropolis, and the Dire Demons will not dare to approach where the light shines. The Tower is the most important thing in a city, and the fate that awaits it is to be swallowed up by the night. ”
Zhan Yue nodded, knowing that this knowledge was probably the basic common sense of this continent, he was not surprised, but pretended to be a test, and continued to ask: "Well, it seems that you have a good grasp of the basic common sense, then I continue to ask you, what if the day is cloudy and the energy obtained is not enough to meet the needs of the night?" ”
The young man Ah Pan held his mouth disdainfully, how could this person ask some stupid questions.
"The extra energy of the scorching sun will be stored as Tongmingshi, if it is rainy weather, the energy of the day is not enough, and the night will be supported by Tongmingshi, and the hundred cities in the east will be supported by the same qi, if the reserves of Tongmingshi in other cities are not enough, it will be supported by other cities, in short, the operation of all cities has never had problems, which is also the degree of my eastern organization.
Sometimes the serious overflow of the Ming Stone will circulate to the market, and even export to other countries with insufficient sunshine, the use of Ming Stone is too much, it is the most important export product in the East, and our Rising Sun City is the most sunshine in the hundred cities in the East, so the output of Ming Stone is also the highest. The position of the Rising Sun City among the hundred cities in the Eastern Kingdom is second only to the imperial capital and the school capital, ranking third. ”
"I see." Zhan Yue understands that the use of solar energy in this world is even more advanced than that of his world, and the storage of solar energy is also very advanced, and the terrifying Tongming Pagoda is the best proof of this.
"Here, master, this is the place you have to visit when you come to Rising Sun City, the statue of the goddess of Tongming!" Ah Pan pointed to a huge statue 100 meters high in front of him and said.
Zhan Yue looked at the hundred-meter statue not far away and was dumbfounded, this is a statue much larger than the Statue of Liberty, covering a huge area, for the Rising Sun City, where every inch of land is valuable, it is unbelievable to be willing to place such a high colossus in the city, no need to think, the person represented by this statue must have an extremely important position in this world.
The statue is of a woman, with a vague appearance and a tall figure, holding a sharp sword in her right hand and a thick book in her left hand, the sword represents force and the book represents wisdom. The appearance is vague because few people have seen her true appearance, and the craftsmen did not dare to carve it indiscriminately, only heard that the appearance of the Tongming goddess in ancient times was extremely beautiful, and she was also revered as the sun goddess and the goddess of wisdom. It was she who invented the Bright Stone and the Bright Tower, so that mankind no longer fears the night.
"Every country has a 100-meter statue of the goddess of Tongming to commemorate the great contribution of the goddess of Tongming to mankind, in the eastern country, the statue of the goddess of Tongming stands in the city of the rising sun, and there are many statues of goddesses in the imperial capital, but there is no such a big one." Ah Pan introduced.
Looking at the huge statue of the goddess, Zhan Yue felt an inexplicable throbbing in his heart, as if he wanted to touch the statue very much.
"Can you touch this statue closely?" Zhan Yue asked curiously.
Ah Pan hurriedly stopped Zhan Yue's crazy thoughts, "Seeing that there is no line on the ground, we can only look outside the line, no one is allowed to enter the line without the order of the city lord, and touching the statue of the goddess is a great rebellion, and the maximum sentence is death!" ”
Zhan Yue sighed regretfully, but he remembered the idol, the throbbing was very strong, but at the moment he didn't know what it meant.
"Let's go, Apan, take me to the biggest bookstore in Rising Sun City." Zhan Yue felt that he still had to know this strange world from the book as soon as possible. As the distance from the goddess statue became farther and farther away, the throbbing in Zhanyue's heart also subsided.
"By the way, Ah Pan, do you know who in the eastern kingdom has a dragon?" Zhan Yue suddenly remembered this question.
The teenager Ah Pan was particularly speechless, this guest was full of eccentricities, isn't this a problem that three-year-old children know? Four-year-olds who have the ability to ask. But he did not dare to offend his guests.
"There are countless beast contractors in the entire Ten Thousand Souls Continent, but among so many beast covenanters, there is only one dragon contractor, and that is Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of our Eastern Kingdom!" Ah Pan replied.
"The eldest princess of the Eastern Kingdom?" Zhan Yue nodded, no wonder he was so generous, it turned out to be the top white rich beauty, white is really white, rich is really rich, and beauty is really beautiful. "Beast Pact, what is a Beast Pact? Forget it, there should be a book explaining these spiritual issues in detail. ”
