Collection of Huaxia: the beginning of the inventory of the top ten ancient figures

Lin Yi nodded and handed Zheng He a map.

Zheng He was taken aback, and then opened the map in his hand, which is a modern world map.

The seven continents and eight oceans are clearly drawn on it, and the location of each place is marked.

Zheng He spent his whole life in the Atlantic Ocean, and brought back a lot of information about navigation, as well as some unexplored lands, which contributed to the survey of the whole world map in the Wanli period of later generations. He deeply understood the importance of maps.

But the map that Ji Dong gave him was too detailed, his hand holding the map trembled slightly, as if he was holding a fragile egg.

His eyes couldn't bear to leave the map in his hand for a moment. He looked at the map, then looked up at Ji Dong, his pale lips were trembling.

This map is too precious, too precious!

Precious, Zheng He didn't know what to say.

Lin Yi looked at Zheng He and said, "This is the map of future generations, the global map."

Zheng He looked down at the map in front of him, then reached out and wiped his eyes. Tears overflowed uncontrollably from his eyes.

"Sir, thank you sir, I can see this map before I die, so I can die without regret."

Zheng He said, holding the corner of the map tremblingly, wanting to pinch it, but not daring to pinch it.

Zheng He thought that when Lin Yi said to show him the world, he was showing him this map.But even so, Zheng He felt satisfied.

Can he see the whole picture of the whole world before he dies, what regrets does he have?
Lin Yi looked at Zheng He. Zheng He lowered his head and was reluctant to leave the map for a moment. He seemed to want to write down the entire map with his last life.

Lin Yi pointed to Malindi in East Africa, and said: "This is Malindi, and in later generations it was Malindi, a country called Kenya. This is the farthest place you have ever been, the east coast of Africa, the coast of the Red Sea. "

Lin Yi stretched out his hand, and the map in Zheng He's hand flew in front of the two of them. Zheng He pointed to the farthest place he had reached.

The farthest place he has reached can only be measured with two hands on the map here, and there are still many places he has never been to.

"It turns out that I have come this far."

Zheng He looked at the map with hazy eyes, with a touch of joy in his eyes.

Ji Dong nodded, then reached out and moved up, stopping on Europa.

"Master Zheng, in later generations there is something called a hot air balloon. Let us take you to see the world in a hot air balloon. This is the first stop, Europa."

Zheng He turned his head to look at Ji Dong, and repeated in a low voice: "Europa? Hot air balloon?"

He received too much information for a while, causing him to be a little overwhelmed, but the look in his eyes showed his deepest thoughts.

He wants to go, wants to see the world, wants to go to various places.

"If possible, sir, please take me to see this old bone." Zheng He looked up at Ji Dong, he didn't understand, but it didn't matter, he wanted to see, he knew he wanted to see what was drawn on this map all over the place.

Lin Yi nodded, stretched out his hand to hold Zheng He, and said with a smile: "Master Zheng, please stand still."

Zheng He nodded blankly, then blinked, and saw that the sea breeze around him had all disappeared, and he was standing in the middle of a basket, with the sun shining on him, bringing him long-lost warmth.

Zheng He stared at him with wide eyes, and the trembling instantly spread throughout his body. He turned around and looked at him.

He is standing high in the sky with a fire above his head and a huge balloon.

He looked out, and there was a patch of green in front of him.

Standing on this high altitude, he seems to have returned to the past, the young man who stood at the bow and shouted to set off.

Zheng He was not afraid of heights, he poked his head out and looked at the scenery in front of him with tears in his eyes.

He knew that what he saw was a scene he had never seen before.

The live broadcast room abroad was extraordinarily excited.

"It's Europa! Over there is the country of spaghetti, my hometown!"

"That's Frans! That's Mesopotamia! It's my home!"

"It's so beautiful, so beautiful, and Europa is so beautiful!"

"I finally saw the familiar scenery here, but I was not excited by the scenery. I was very moved by this old explorer."

In the picture, Zheng He seemed to use his eyes to record all the scenery in front of him. He stared at all the things he didn't know.

Lin Yi leaned against the basket and said with a smile: "Master Zheng, this is the Europa continent I told you about. You see, there is Greece, the birthplace of the civilization of the Europa continent. It’s warmer, with a lot of rainfall, and the people living here are very different from those living in Daming.”

"Back then, some people also came to China through the Silk Road."

Zheng He looked at the flat and vast Europa with countless curiosity in his eyes.

"Is that Marco Polo?" Zheng He looked at Lin Yi. He was familiar with classics, and he had seen records about some foreigners who were officials in the Yuan Dynasty at that time.

"He's a merchant from Italy, and that's Italy, you see."

Zheng He looked at a small piece of land far away from the hot air balloon. He was a little puzzled, and said, "Sir, I heard from you, there seem to be many countries on this land?"

Lin Yi nodded, and said objectively: "On Europa, there are a total of 46 countries. Each country is small in size and has some relationship with each other. It may be very similar to the Spring and Autumn and Warring States in China."

Zheng He nodded and looked at those countries.

"Without my Ming Dynasty, relying on the ocean, maybe I can only live by fishing."

Lin Yi chuckled and said: "Europa's commerce is very developed. They rely on the sea and rivers to trade with people from other places. After you, there are many navigators who are all from Europa."

Zheng He looked at Ji Dong, with some disappointment inadvertently showing in his eyes.

"Sir, do you mean that we will be inferior to these Europa people in future generations?"

Lin Yi looked at Zheng He and shook his head.

"Master Zheng, Huaxia has experienced artillery fire, experienced wars, we have been low, we have been invaded by other people's culture, and we have also been looked down upon by others."

As Lin Yi said, Zheng He's eyes gradually lowered.

His seven voyages to the west were not only to explore the unknown, but also to promote the national prestige of Ming Dynasty.

He couldn't accept that such a powerful Ming would be bullied by these small countries with few people in later generations.

"However, it is precisely because of the property left by you, Mr. Zheng, the spirit you have passed down, the ancestors who sacrificed their lives for the country, and the ancestors who forgot the ego and fulfilled the ego, so even if Huaxia sleeps temporarily, it will gradually take off. .”

Ji Dong looked at Zheng He with natural pride in his eyes.

"Master Zheng, you don't need to be sad, because the Huaxia of the future generations has already stood at the top of the nation."

"The Huaxia of future generations is the pride of every Chinese."
