Chapter 490: Encourage those brave people
The moonlight is hazy, and the moonlight allows people to see the outline of the clouds in the night sky. Behind it, the evening breeze blows by the stone path, and the lanterns sway by the small stone path.
A melodious song sounded in the peach trees. The patrolling guards looked at each other and slowly searched for the forest. This must be another young mandarin duck who expressed their feelings to each other. They would enter them every day to drive them home.
Lei Xiong was also bottled wine with others at the banquet, and Si Mao Sui recommended himself to follow the Han King to the back mountain to see the envoy of the Jinwu Tribe.
There are several benches on the green grass on the top of the mountain. Stargazing sits alone on the bench. He hears the sound of the peach forest at the foot of the mountain, and touches the scene and blows the flute at his waist.
Lin Fan stood there, familiar with the sound of the flute song, but he couldn't remember which song it was for a moment. He thought it was the leader of Jinfu. "King of Han, the people in Jinfu City are no worse than us in their research on music." Si sighed.
"People need people. This stargazing is the same as you. You like to observe the starry sky. Maybe you two have a common topic." Lin Fan brought Si, so he naturally had his ideas.
Si was puzzled, and Lin Fan did not explain. The two continued to walk towards the top of the back mountain. Except for a watchtower, there were some pine and cypress on the top of the mountain, the rest of the open space was where the residents of Anhe City were relaxed.
The two easily found the position of the stargazing stargazing. The stargazing stargazing quickly stood up to salute, "Greetings to King Han." The girl looked at Si, not knowing Si's identity. Seeing that he was wearing silk clothes, she knew that his status was not low, and she bowed slightly to salute.
"This is the crafter of our Han Dynasty calendar. He is also responsible for recording the history of the Han Dynasty and knows some basic knowledge." Lin Fan introduced it casually, then sat on the bench and looked up and found Si Zai in a daze, with a silly expression reminding him of his first love when he was in his teenage years old.
"Cough cough!" Lin Fan coughed lightly, and Si bowed and said quickly: "I have met the Golden Crow Envoy under the name Si."
Star Guan smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Si's body has a strong ink fragrance. I think he is a wise man. He can do such complicated things in making calendars. The Han Dynasty is indeed full of talents."
A strange color flashed in Si's eyes. The Jin Crow Envoy's Chinese culture level was probably better than himself. Even the King of Han rarely spoke so politely. "The messenger was too famous, and I just picked up the King of Han."
Lin Fan interrupted, "Okay, you two sit down and talk."
Of course, Star Gazing didn't dare to sit with Lin Fan. She sat cross-legged on the grass, and Si also sat on the ground, "If you have any questions, your master can't help you, and I may not be able to solve your doubts." Lin Fan leaned on the bench, looking at the clouds drawn by the moonlight.
Star Gazing did not speak directly but frowned and thought for a while before asking: "King of Han, I want to know, is the world we live in really a sphere?"
Lin Fan didn't expect that stargazing was so far away. The leader of the Golden Colossus must have dug many pits for stargazing, but he didn't want to explain, so he threw the trouble to himself.
Faced with such a studious child, Lin Fan chose to pretend to be stupid. He deliberately showed a surprised expression: "Is this what your leader said?"
"That's right, we believe in the golden crow, that is, the scorching sun in the sky. The leader said that many lives were born in this world because of the existence of the golden crow. But one day she told me that the golden crow totem is not a living creature, but a fireball, and the earth we live in is also a ball." Stargazing's eyes were full of doubts, and she could not understand that the flat earth was a ball.
This is the result of the incomplete knowledge system and the knowledge reserves surpass thinking. Lin Fan never talks about too complicated knowledge with Si, Zhan Tong, Meteor, and Ze, which is because he is afraid of this situation.
The sect formulated the calendar but had never heard of it. One sentence he followed Lin Fan to remember was: Don’t easily deny other people’s opinions.
Both of them were waiting for Lin Fan to answer the answer. The greatest wise man in their eyes slowly spoke: "Seeing is true, and one day human beings can fly into the sky and know the truth."
"Did the King of Han talk about riding Yapeng?" Si thought of the giant bird they caught, and Lin Fan shook his head: "No, Yapeng cannot fly very high. The real flying needs to rely on human wisdom."
Stargazing eyes lit up: "It's like making a huge kite."
Lin Fan raised his eyebrows and said, "The general direction is right."
"Even the great wise man of Dakawa cannot give a direct explanation..." Stargazing was a little disappointed, and Si couldn't help but say, "Just verify many things yourself."
Star Gazing looked at Si and found that the boy who was younger than him spoke to the point, "Then how should I prove it... it seems difficult to fly."
"Solving this problem is not helpful to your current Jinwu City. I suggest you change your direction," Lin Fan persuaded.
Star Gazing shook his head slightly: "The master has given me the power to pursue my ideals. Even if I can't find the answer, I will gather a group of people to find the real answer."
Lin Fan touched the stubble on his chin. It was because there was a group of such seekers in the world that humans would continue to improve. He no longer undermined her enthusiasm: "This starry sky is indeed worth exploring, such as seeing the brightest star in the north?"
"Which King of Han is talking about the North Star?"
"You have named it, the North Star is very appropriate. Everyone in the Han Dynasty now knows the north of the North Star, and can distinguish the direction. If you discover other laws and benefit mankind, you will also leave a mark in the long river of human history." Lin Fan gave encouragement to stargazing.
Star Gazing stood up and saluted, and continued to ask: "There is another issue about telescopes. The glass manufacturing technology of Han Kingdom is far better than our Jinwu City. In addition, the quartz resources in the oasis we are in are insufficient. I hope the King of Han can create a telescope for us to observe the starry sky."
The production of glass in Han Dynasty was not high. In the past two years, the main manpower has been devoted to the planting and shipbuilding industries. Glass is not a necessary product of this era, so Lin Fan did not continue to increase production and study quality issues.
A telescope that can observe the starry sky involves Kepler-style telescope. Lin Fan has not carefully checked the information, which requires a lot of brains and may not be possible.
Seeing Lin Fan hesitating, Star Gazing added: "Of course, the King of Han will not waste his energy. Jinwu City is willing to give the King of Han a hundred kilograms of aloe vera every year. At the same time, the King of Han accounts for 60% of the territory and benefits in the city of commerce."
Lin Fan thought he had heard it wrong, "You used the distribution of interests in the City of Trade to negotiate with me? Do your master know?"
Star Gazing smiled slightly: "The master is very fond of us, this is the master's idea."
