Chapter 632 The arrival of the new century(1/2)
At night.
Even though the snow forest is dense, the cold wind is pervasive.
This kind of night is already very familiar to everyone.
The simple camp wall made of trees and snow outside the camp can completely block the wind and snow outside. It is just that after dawn the next day, people need to open a way out of the camp.
The wind kept whistling against the tent, and pieces of snowflakes fell from the sky and slowly accumulated on the tent, which actually played a role in keeping warm.
Most of the officers and soldiers in the camp have gone to bed.
Even if you don't get used to it at first, when it happens every night, the roar of the wind and snow is nothing, and you can fall asleep after lying down and closing your eyes.
Only a few tents were still lit with candles.
In a corner of the camp sheltered from the wind, Zhu Yunwen and Sun Cheng's tents were always lit with candles.
The two of them didn't communicate, but they didn't turn off the lights and close their eyes to sleep. They just silently huddled under the quilt in cotton-padded clothes.
After a long time.
Zhu Yunwen made a long and long sound from his throat.
Under Sun Cheng's doubtful gaze, he tightened his cotton-padded clothes and wrapped the smelly sheepskin coat around him.
Then Zhu Yunwen walked to the camp door and carefully opened a corner.
Seeing that there wasn't much wind and snow outside, I opened half of it.
Outside.
At the top of the cedars rising from the ground, under the whole night sky.
The snow stopped at some point, and in the clear starry sky, countless bright stars twinkled, projecting light from hundreds of millions of light-years away and millions of years ago onto this starry sky.
And under the starry sky that the Central Plains people call Yinhan.
Countless rays of blue, green, and deep purple light are constantly twisting and swaying, changing countless shapes.
"It looks like a fairy skirt..."
Zhu Yunwen looked at the ever-changing aurora above the cedar trees and under the Yinhan starry sky with some obsession.
Sun Cheng remained silent. He wondered if the man in front of him had the idea of reciting poems in praise of others.
But Zhu Yunwen turned around, looked at Sun Cheng who frowned, and asked softly: "This light has appeared for several nights. Do you think we didn't find the frozen strait, but found the one first?"
The legendary Immortal Heavenly Palace?”
Sun Cheng also observed the light under the starry sky outside for several nights, and found that it did not pose any threat to them.
The former Zhenfu, who was in charge of Jinyiwei North Town Fusi, never paid attention to him again.
Since there is no threat, it is harmless.
Just as Sun Cheng looked at the officials in the imperial court, in his eyes there were only loyal ministers and treacherous sycophants.
Sun Cheng didn't say anything.
Zhu Yunwen looked a little suspicious of Niu Tanqin, and turned around and said: "If according to what Brother Xi said, the land under our feet is a circle. Then if we keep walking north, will we one day enter Champa Road?"
Sun Cheng still didn't speak.
He never makes this assumption.
His Highness Taisun said that the world is a ball, then the world is a ball.
As for how to get to Champa Road?
Sun Cheng felt that as long as he got on the imperial navy's warship, he would be able to reach the Champa Road.
Zhu Yunwen was a little annoyed.
"Counting the days, it will be the twelfth lunar month in just over a month. If we can't find the frozen strait before the New Year, we will wait to be killed by the people below."
Recently the people in the team have begun to undergo some changes.
The time that seems to be as frozen as the surrounding environment has caused more or less psychological changes in everyone.
Sun Cheng finally moved.
He put the embroidered spring knife that was pressed against the pillow upright between the two people's quilts, looked at Zhu Yunwen firmly, and said in a deep voice as if he was making a promise: "Before I die, no one can touch you."
Zhu Yunwen shook his head: "I mean, we must find the frozen strait."
Sun Cheng's momentum weakened and he spoke in a low voice.
"It will be found."
"Yes, we will definitely find it. As long as we find it, our Ming Dynasty will be able to solve many problems."
Zhu Yunwen also muttered in a low voice.
He always thought that Sun Cheng was a fool, and the disputes in the court and the common people in the world were not within the scope of Sun Cheng's consideration.
Naturally, he did not understand what changes it would bring to Ming Dynasty when a new continent appeared in front of it.
What were those shady activities in the past in the Central Plains?
It's just to occupy more land and create huge wealth.
But what happens when a new continent appears?
Zhu Yunwen felt that people's selfishness would not change, but it could change the future direction of the court.
At least, the conflicts and pressures in the country can be transferred to the New World for a longer period of time.
Isn’t that how Jiaozhi Road came about?
The same is true for Cham City Road and Yingzhou Four Roads.
Even this year, the Ming Dynasty mobilized the whole country to conquer the grasslands in the north, then changed the Liaodong Dusi to Liaodong Road, and established the Nuergan Dusi in the Nurgan area, all in order to divert the contradictions in the country and the pressure generated between individual groups.
With complicated things in his mind, Zhu Yunwen changed his hands and silently closed the camp tent.
Stuffing the sheepskin coat in the corner, Zhu Yunwen wrapped himself in the cotton coat and got into the quilt.
"If everything goes well this time, not to mention myself, but just you, you will definitely be the only candidate to be the next commander of the Imperial Guard."
Sun Cheng, who had just laid down and seemed to be asleep, moved slightly with his tightly closed eyes.
"I'd like to lend you your kind words."
Zhu Yunwen, who was lying down, smiled silently: "After you go back, you have to protect Brother Xi with your life, so that you can keep your job as the commander of the Jinyi Guards."
snore.
Sent from the camp.
"Elm head!"
…
Time flies.
Like a white foal passing through the gap.
When the twelfth lunar month of winter is approaching.
Far East Siberia in the dead of winter.
A team of 'savages' rushed out from the dense snow forest.
To say that he rushed out is actually a bit distorted, but at the edge of the snow forest that stretches for thousands of miles, the scene is the same all day long. Suddenly, a team of savages walked out of the forest, and it was a natural visual impact.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The number of people in the team is estimated to be more than 900.
Everyone's body is covered with snow, and everyone's face is unshaven and covered with ice crystals for a long time.
However, even if he becomes a savage.
There is nothing that can be done to stop this group of Ming officers and soldiers who have come all the way from the nine sides of the Ming Dynasty.
Everyone's face was filled with a big smile, as if they had escaped from death.
Everyone's eyes revealed a strong sparkle and expectation.
"Huhuhu..."
"Wahaha..."
"Come out! Come out!"
Everyone began to roar wildly, causing layers of snow to fall in the snow forest behind them.
Zhu Yunwen threw away the wooden stick in his hand.
In his sight, the land under his feet gradually turned into a rocky beach not far ahead.
Outside the beach, the sea should have been turbulent, but now it was quiet, windless and waveless.
The snow on the ice is blown by the north wind and keeps moving towards the south.
