Chapter 29 Mingdu
He woke up Zhang Jian from his sleep, heated up the cold dry food and had breakfast before the campfire went out.
The group of four used the water stored in Wang Lin’s storage soul guide to wash up briefly, and then set out on the journey to the Sun and Moon Empire again.
The two of them took one person each, Long Xiaoyao took Wang Lin, and Zhang Peng took Zhang Jian, and they did not let Wang Lin and Zhang Jian protect themselves in the strong wind.
Using their soul power to protect Wang Lin and Zhang Jian respectively, Long Xiaoyao and Zhang Peng were extremely fast.
In less than a day, the tail flames of the two flying soul guides passed through the border between the Tianhun Empire and the Sun-Moon Empire, and headed straight towards the capital of the Sun-Moon Empire - Sun-Moon City.
From afar, a large, continuous group of buildings came into Wang Lin's sight.
At this time, Long Xiaoyao began to slow down and dropped from the sky with Wang Lin. Zhang Peng and Zhang Jian followed closely behind.

The sound of metal folding was heard. In an open space in the dense forest, Long Xiaoyao put away the flying soul guide and took out a black robe and put it on.
Zhang Peng next to him made the same move, he put away his flying soul guide system and also took out his black robe and put it on. Long Xiaoyao and Zhang Peng also returned to the way they were when they first met Wang Lin.
"Let's go."
A deep voice came from under the black robe. Led by Long Xiaoyao and Zhang Peng, the group of four quickly got out of the dense forest.
We arrived at the straight official road leading to Sun Moon City, which is Mingdu.
Stepping on the gray solid ground, Wang Lin suddenly stopped, squatted down, and rubbed the ground with his hand, with a look of surprise and confusion in his eyes.
“Is this concrete?!”
Wang Lin was not shocked by the concrete floor itself, but was shocked that the Sun-Moon Empire already had concrete floors. Then why did Xingluo City and Tiandou City, where he lived, still look like they were from the feudal era?
"You are ignorant, boy. This is a building material unique to the Sun-Moon Empire."
Zhang Peng looked at a bumpkin who was squatting on the ground and rubbing the ground, and couldn't help but speak.
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Peng's promising disciple Zhang Jian actually squatted down like Wang Lin and began to rub the ground.
Zhang Peng was speechless after seeing this, and he reached out and picked up Zhang Jian.
Wang Lin didn't care about Zhang Peng's ridicule. He withdrew his hand, stood up, looked at Zhang Peng beside him, and asked sincerely.
"Uncle Zhang, do you know the formula for this unique building material?"
The ground under my feet is seamless, and must have been cast. Even if it is not cement, it is at least made of a cement-like material.
"They say it's unique. How can I know for sure?"
Zhang Peng shook his head and asked back.
"Too."
Wang Lin nodded, turned around and looked in the direction of Mingdu, interest in his eyes.
Among the endless buildings, most of them are more than five stories high, and there are even many buildings that are more than ten stories high.
Wang Lin felt like he had returned to his previous life, but of course he was not surprised by this.
With pouring materials like cement, building a building is a very simple matter. The tallest building I saw in my previous life was 130 stories high.
The architecture of Mingdu was indeed surprising to the Douluo people, but it was just that to him.
But it is still far better than Tiandou City and Xingluo City. In Tiandou and Xingluo City, buildings with more than three floors are considered high. At this moment, near dusk, there are not many people on this main road. There are all kinds of people, and there are also many pedestrians who are covered in black robes like Long Xiaoyao and Zhang Peng.
Therefore, Long Xiaoyao and Zhang Peng, who were accompanied by two teenagers, did not stand out from the crowd. The group of four walked quickly on the main road.
“Master, let’s hurry up.” Wang Lin urged as they walked. He wanted to see what kind of surprise Mingdu could give him.
But once he stepped into Mingdu, Wang Lin had no time to take a close look at Mingdu’s buildings and cultural landscape.
He was directly pulled into the alley by Long Xiaoyao. There were tall buildings standing there. From the alley, apart from the high walls on both sides, there was no sign of what was special about Mingdu.
Wang Lin had no choice but to follow Long Xiaoyao and Zhang Peng through the alleys, twisting and turning for nearly half an hour before turning into a wide alley.
There were not many households in the alley, only about seven or eight. It was already dark, and all seven or eight households had their doors tightly shut.
They stopped at the door of an inconspicuous courtyard in the middle of the alley.
Standing at the door, waiting for Zhang Peng to open it, Wang Lin looked around the alley. The ground of the alley was also paved with a building material that looked like "cement".
There were rows of "animal footprints" on the ground left over from the pouring. Wang Lin could tell that they were cat footprints.

The sound of a door opening was heard, and suddenly a head poked out from the darkness from a yard nearby. Wang Lin naturally noticed the little bald head that was completely sticking out.
Wang Lin just showed a smile on his face and was about to say hello.
call out!
Suddenly a hand stretched out and grabbed the little bald head back, and then sounds of beating and scolding were heard from the yard.
"You little bastard, you're playing with my carving knife again. I'll beat your ass to pieces today."
clap clap clap!
"Let's go, Brother Lin, what are you looking at?" At this moment, Zhang Jian's voice rang out.
When Wang Lin came to his senses, the gate of the yard had been opened. Long Xiaoyao and Zhang Peng walked in naturally, while Zhang Jian stood by with a little confusion on his face.
“I’m waiting for a complete childhood!”
Wang Lin said with a smile, and just as he finished speaking, crying and shouting came from the yard next to him.
"Wow wow wow wow, Dad, I was wrong, be gentle"
"very nice!"
Hearing the crying and shouting, Wang Lin's smile became even brighter and he walked into the yard.
Zhang Jian followed Wang Lin's steps, looking confused. What complete childhood? Why would it be okay for someone to cry after being beaten?
The yard is not big, only about 150 meters, with four side rooms and a main room. In the center, there is a jujube tree about three meters long and as thick as a bowl.
This is not the season for jujube trees to bear fruit, and the gray-green leaves are turning a little yellow, but there are almost no fallen leaves in the yard.
Obviously there is someone who comes to clean the yard at a fixed time.
"Choose one of the remaining three rooms." Long Xiaoyao said, pointing to the room where he and Zhang Peng lived. Their room was the largest in the main house and the courtyard.
"Okay, Master."
Wang Lin nodded and took Zhang Jianxian to look at the three rooms below. Wang Lin chose the room facing east and west.
Zhang Jian didn't have any special needs, he just wanted to live next door to Wang Lin.
The wing room is not big. Although it has a private bathroom, the things inside are not luxurious. There is only a simple bed, a desk and a chair that matches the desk, as well as a specially equipped soul guide lamp.
