Chapter Ninety-Six: The Earth Is Round

"Britney, are you there?"

Soon, the door opened, and Britney's face leaned forward, and she smiled, "I was wondering when you would finish eating." ”

"What, miss me?"

"Don't be narcissistic, I'm thinking of my Prince Charming. She pouted and brought him a piece of fruit.

Today is a sunny day, but not hot, with the windows open, the warm breeze blowing, and the delicious fruit biting, a comfortable life.

Of course, the most important thing is that there are beautiful women to see, which is simply pleasing to the eye.

In addition to looking at Zheng Fei, Britney was always looking out the window, not knowing what she was looking forward to, and her beautiful demeanor was very much like Teresa in Atlanta, and perhaps, Lina in Barcelona was the same.

Perhaps in medieval Europe, many aristocratic girls who were imprisoned in freedom were like this.

"Do you want to go out, Britney?" Zheng Fei didn't expect that after many years, he would have such a warm tone.

"I can only think about it. She smiled bitterly, pinched her face, and said, "Stay in the castle obediently, and then marry a royal child for the rest of your life, this is my life, or rather, fate." ”

Fate, everyone has their own fate, but in Zheng Fei's thoughts, fate can always be broken.

As for those who obey fate, they are cowards!

Well, women don't count, let alone rare beauties.

He smiled and said, "Do you want that kind of life?"

"You don't know what the prince I'm going to marry looks like, a dozen years older than me!"

"And what do you like?"

"I like," she groaned, glanced over at him, cleared her throat and made a serious gesture, and continued to say in that arrogant tone: "I like people with good figures, charming, preferably Oriental." ”

"Oh~" Zheng Fei unconsciously sat down, because the girl's thin skin was not broken, you know, I know, everyone understands, it's okay.

After two minutes of silence, the two of them thought about things, each with its own troubles and joys.

"Do you know what I do?" Zheng Fei said.

"Navigator, you said it at the reception before. ”

"Do you know what it means to sail?"

"Fame, wealth, status. She said lightly, aren't all the people and things in the world for this?

"Yes, but you're missing the most important point, which people call it, freedom!"

Freedom, a word that touches the depths of Britney's heart.

She moved her fingers slightly, as if talking to herself, and repeated, "Freedom?"

Zheng Fei nodded, pulled her long hair from her cheeks to the back of her neck, and said seriously, "Do you know where to go all the way west?"

"The sea, Lisbon is the westernmost point of the landmass, which is recognized by many geographers. ”

"Well, what about further west from the sea?"

She pursed her lips, smiled, and said, "You want to test me, I'm not a vase, I know that in Italy, in Rome, in Florence, there is a doctrine called heliocentrism, what is the name of the man who is called a madman?"

"Copernicus. ”

"Oh yes, Copernicus, he said that the earth is round, and that if you sail all the way west, you can reach the great powers of the Celestial Empire in the east. ”

After saying that, she blinked smugly and said, "How is it, am I right?"

"Yes~" he said with a smile.

It was precisely because of the influence of this doctrine that the navigator Christopher Columbus set sail from Portugal to the west, and as a result, he accidentally discovered the New World of America and left his name in history.

But of course, according to the current situation, there is little hope for the boy of Columbus, the title of great navigator has been taken away, and it is not bad to be installed as a little follower of the global king of navigators, at least when he grows up, he will have money to spend, drink and drink.

Zheng Fei paused for a moment, then continued: "But did you know that before you reach the east, you will arrive at another land. ”

"Islands?"

"It's not an island, it's a land much bigger than the European continent! There are forests, deserts, mountains, glaciers, from the northernmost point of the world to the southernmost part of the world, and this continent is made up of two parts, spanning the whole world. ”

She was dazed and didn't quite understand.

Zheng Fei understood that using such a long list of majestic words did seem very empty, so he wanted to give some interesting small examples.

"There's the prettiest waterfall there, Niagara Falls, and it's like a wonderland, it's indescribably beautiful. ”

"There's also the treacherous Amazon forest, teeming with all sorts of strange creatures. ”

"And the farms, endless farms, with countless cows and sheep. ”

"Oh yes, and there are tons of mountains where you can take a thrilling air trip on a glider. (Drunk, this word is blocked, anyway, some readers see *** want to be crooked, right?)

Hearing this, Britney finally couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised: "What is an air travel?

[I only wrote here before 12 o'clock in the fourth update, and in order to update, I didn't go to the movie when my sister asked me to watch a movie~ Well, I believe it.

Anyway, the boys in the group are so kind, some readers sent me a big red envelope, and they mistakenly received it, and they sent it out again, so that I was just about to cry and faint in the toilet, and I suddenly cried with joy and praised my character. 】
