Chapter 1374 Everyone Loves the Great Voyage

The plants brought back from South America immediately began to spread, and potatoes, corn, peppers, and so on began to be planted.

Food is always the most important thing, and only after you have eaten enough will you study how to cook it to be delicious. The matter of researching the dishes was naturally left to Ku Ding, and Duran personally brought things to the door.

Seeing that the great master brought ingredients that he had never seen before, Ku Ding was also interested, and Ku Ding, who had an infinite pursuit of eating and cooking, patted his chest and said: I will definitely research delicious new dishes.

"Great Master, when I went to deliver food to the post station recently, I saw a lot of strange people with white cloths draped over their bodies, they are all from the New World?"

"The people you speak of are from Rome, and they are to the west of us, and they are crossing the desert and climbing over the mountains and going west. Durán said, "If you are curious, you can buy a copy of The Great Voyage and you will know where the Romans are." ”

"The Great Voyage? Could it be that the great masters have recorded all the overseas affairs in it?"

"It's not me, it's my apprentice, the head of the fleet, and he writes something that will definitely satisfy your curiosity, but there are many secrets in it. Duran pointed.

Ku Ding remembered it in his heart, and as soon as Duran left, he immediately went to the bookstore and saw that there was a big voyage for sale, and it was divided into ordinary and treasured. Ordinary 500 texts, the consistency of the collector's edition.

Ku Ding bought a set of collector's editions and ten sets of ordinary editions, and sent them to the Mo disciples stationed outside the city overnight.

After getting these books, the Mo family giant immediately read them, the world beyond the sea is still very attractive, and he may be able to find information about the treasure of fate.

At the same time, the Zhu family and Liu Bang in the Drunken Dream Building were also reading this "Great Voyage".

There are many people who are also reading, of course, they think that the great master has found Xianshan, so they want to see what Xianshan looks like.

Cai He's writing is average, this is more of a diary, but what is recorded is very shocking.

"The Great Voyage, Set Sail, Day 1", open the cover and go straight to the topic. As for this 'what' chapter, in addition to the 'Sailing Chapter', there are also 'Pacific Chapter', 'New World Chapter', 'Polar Chapter', 'Atlantic Chapter', 'British Island Chapter', 'Rome Chapter', 'Mediterranean Chapter', 'Africa and India Chapter', and 'South Sea Return Chapter'.

There are ten articles in total, and the amount of information is amazing.

In the first day, Cai He recorded the size of the fleet, as well as its components, the number of crews, the number of soldiers, and the number of miscellaneous personnel.

There is almost no nonsense, and one item of data is thrown in the face, leaving the reader breathless.

Cai He then also wrote about his optimism about the mission, as well as his loyalty to the great master, and of course his observations of the crew.

Restless and nervous, Cai He foresaw from the first day that the crew might mutiny.

In addition to the strange customs in "The Great Voyage", the biggest attraction is the mental journey of Cai He and the crew. Cai He has grown from a small man who only trembles to complete the task to a respected commander who is in charge of the entire fleet, and the crew has experienced wind and rain to become adventurers who are not afraid of heaven and earth, and the twists and turns are always unexpected.

Everyone studied the 'Great Voyage', and Cai He found an island soon after his departure, and thought that this was the fairy island in ancient books. When Cai He felt that there were no bright spots in Xiandao, everyone thought that Cai He was illiterate or bragging.

But later they will find that compared to the New World and Europe, these islands really have no two points, just a supply point to replenish fresh water, in the South Sea return voyage chapter, Cai He will land on the supply island again, and issued: "The world is a ball." "Impressions.

Then there is the tedious daily navigation, although it is very boring, but Cai He still records every day, such as what time he surveys the course, what time does stargazing, of course, it is inevitable to mention the navigation terminology here, ordinary people are confused, but the discerning people find that Cai He can not get lost in the sea through the stars and compass and then with the map.

"These are so boring, I'm going to look at the back. Tianming and Xiang Shaoyu read a book together, but Tianming just wanted to read exciting adventure stories.

Xiang Shaoyu ignored him, but watched it little by little.

Finally seeing the storm and the rebellious part, the men only felt their blood surge. Although Cai He is not overly embellished, the tension of fighting the storm between the lines is still vivid, and there are many nautical terms that are constantly being put forward, which is also unclear, and it always feels that Cai He is making a move against the storm, which is shocking.

The final decision to abandon the shipwreck and the injured ship also dilutes the sadness. Then there is the rebellion, which makes the reader gnash their teeth, and before they know it, they all take the shoes of Cai He, because Cai He has remained loyal and calm throughout the process, and is completely the template of the protagonist.

Seeing Cai He kill the rebels, readers breathed a sigh of relief and applauded. It's just that the next part of the road is a low tide in the whole book, and Cai He, as well as the crew, begin to wonder if they can return to the shore.

Readers can't help but be immersed in it, as if they feel a sense of despair, the vast sea has no end, how can they find their way only by relying on the stars in the sky?

Although I know that Cai He must have succeeded, this part still makes the reader feel heavy and depressed.

Gai Nie and other masters felt that the hearts of the readers around them were actually affected by the Chinese characters of the book, and they couldn't help but scream secretly. At the same time, I thought that it was probably because the Chinese characters in the book were simple and the real people recorded were so exciting and unstoppable.

Then it was the discovery of the New World, Cai He recorded the joy at that time, and also swept away the dark clouds in the reader's heart, the only regret is that Cai He didn't know what the bird that made him discover the land was called, it was supposed to wait for Duran to choose a name, but Duran completely forgot about it.

Then the adventure of the New World, and the first contact with the different indigenous people, made people's eyes widen. It turned out that there were people living in the forest without clothes, and it was always raining in that place.

Everything in South America is amazing, the Collector's Edition has three times as many drawings as the regular version, and it is colored, depicting the Mayan warriors, as well as the Mayan city-states and the Mayan calendar, while the regular version only shows the black-and-white outlines of the Mayan city-states.

It is also indispensable to the type and number of goods exchanged, of course, Cai He did not hide the construction of the 'mobile green building', and it is a series of dazzling data, and readers said that they were very enjoyable.

After leaving the Mayan civilization, they continued south into the world of ice and snow, which was also a painful time, with two ships hitting icebergs and a crew having to amputate their limbs due to frostbite.

But because of the discovery of the New World, Cai He and the crew have begun to believe the words of the great master, so Cai He recorded in the book: Although the weather is cold, there are more and more wounded, but no one complains about returning home. It can be seen that the fleet has completely changed.

Cai He even said: I heard Master say that the land in the far north is also so cold, but if you have a chance, you have to see which side is colder. These optimistic words let the reader know that Cai He's heart has completed its transformation.

Entering the Atlantic Ocean, it was another ocean, Cai He said: "After one ocean, there is another ocean, and the cover continent is surrounded by the ocean. As he spoke, he also accompanied the front and back maps of the earth, with place names on them, as well as Cai He's previous Pacific routes, and his position in the Atlantic.

This was drawn by Cai He himself, and it was the first nautical chart that appeared in the book, and he calculated how many days it would take to reach Europe.

Cai He is living with his fingers crossed, of course, in addition to sailing, he is also charging, and his learning experience and problems that he does not know are occasionally recorded in the logbook.

Among them is ocean currents, which the journal says that the sea will flow even if it is not stagnant water, and this is the ocean current, but he does not know how the ocean currents flow and what it has to do with the survival of marine life.

All the way to Britain, where I met the Celts, and it was a new story. Seeing that all the Celts were hiding, readers couldn't help laughing and crying, and affirmed Cai He's behavior of leaving grain to try well, and said that Cai He embodied the bearing of the Central Plains people.

Of course, readers are also curious, because they find that the civilization of this place is higher than that of the New World, and Cai He also began to repeatedly mention the word 'Rome' at this time, and he admired Rome very much. Readers know that Rome may be a great power like the Qin state.

I really want to see the back, but it's still very interesting to trade with the Celts, especially the captain buying slaves is a trick, which is the first laugh-intensive part of the whole voyage.

With patience, I finally arrived in Rome, and another huge civilization settlement slowly opened the curtain and showed it in front of the Orientals. More than 200 years BC, the two civilizations of the East and the West met in the book.
