Li Qidao: "The reason why you don't feel anything is because of gravity."
"Gravity?" Zong Mixing frowned.
Li Qi also shared the basic knowledge of the nine-year compulsory obligation with Zong Mixing.
But who knew that Zong Mixing would have more and more questions. Li Qi could handle them at first, but as he kept asking, he couldn't answer some of the questions.
In the end, Li Qi decided that instead of letting her ask questions like this, it would be better to systematically teach her some basic knowledge of physics.
In this way, she will also think about the problem by herself when the time comes.
But this is not something that can be taught in a short period of time. Besides, I have something to do when I come here.
Forget it, let’s just deal with it first.
"Miss Zong, how about this, how about I teach you how to identify the constellations first?" Li Qi said.
Zong Mixing grinned and said, "Then Mr. Li will be the one to help."
For several days, Li Qi came to Zhulin every night to discuss horoscopes with Zong Mixing.
Before I knew it, more than half a month had passed in the blink of an eye.
During this half month, Li Qi had long forgotten about Xiao Jijia.
Mainly because Zong Mixing's mind is too active and she is also very smart.
When Li Qi discusses something with her, other inspirations will come up.
These inspirations also benefited him a lot.
"Mr. Li, the steam engine you are talking about converts heat into kinetic energy, right?" Zong Mixing drew something on a piece of paper, "But I really can't figure out how to make such a compact instrument."
Li Qi thought to himself that he could only talk about the principles of steam engines on paper, and had never thought about experiments and the like.
This thing sounds simple, but converting the kinetic energy of steam into energy requires a lot of calculations and experiments.
Moreover, the steam is also very dangerous and may explode at any time.
Of course, Li Qi had already discussed these things with Zong Mixing, and he also specially wrote a manuscript with some precautions about steam.
I have to say that Zong Mixing can definitely be called a science girl, and she is very obsessed with mathematics, physics and chemistry.
Of course, this is most likely related to her experience. She has been fond of weird and weird things since she was a child.
For example, stargazing. Ever since she became obsessed with stargazing, the sect leader had tried his best to find many people who knew how to stargaze to teach her.
But every time those people come here, they don’t teach for long, and they have nothing to teach.
And Zong Mixing also gradually gave up the method of seeking knowledge with others and learned to think about problems on his own.
Since her own knowledge reserve was sufficient, this also led her to create many things of her own.
For example, the star map was invented by herself, and the calculation of the time of the meteor shower was also the result of her observations.
This is the power of Zong Mi Xing.
Li Qi naturally discovered this. It's not like Li Qi has never seen smart people.
I remember when I was in school, the top students in my class were all extremely smart.
One classmate who impressed him the most, played games everywhere every day, and basically ranked first in the exam.
And he didn't know how many nights he stayed up in order to get into college.
Ke Zong Mixing is obviously more defiant than those top academics.
Li Qi thought Zong Mixing was smart, and Zong Mixing admired what Li Qi knew.
The two of them were going back and forth like this, and it was really interesting.
"Master Li, do you think that after this steam engine is manufactured, it will bring about earth-shaking changes in the world?" Zong Mixing asked.
Li Qi nodded: "Of course, if this steam engine is really invented, it will be an industrial revolution. Think about it, just like a carriage, if there is neat kinetic energy, there will be no need for a carriage and a steam carriage will replace it. Let's talk about some daily tasks.
Can industries, such as blacksmithing and weaving, provide greater output?"
Zong Mixing nodded, and after thinking about it carefully, he felt that Li Qi was right.
"But the rubber you mentioned in the steam engine doesn't seem to exist in Daxia." Zong Mixing said.
Li Qi nodded: "It is true that if you want to get rubber, you can only get it from the Western Regions."
"Western Region?"
"Well, of course, making a steam engine is not something that can be done in a short period of time. It requires a long-term plan and countless experiments." Li Qi said.
Zong Mixing naturally understands what Li Qi said. It's not like she hasn't thought about some principles of steam engines. Making that thing is not an easy task.
While the discussion between the two was in full swing, the head of the clan held a banquet and invited everyone to eat together.
The banquet was under the guise of giving Xiao Jijia a cleansing, but the actual purpose was to introduce his daughter to Xiao Jijia.
Of course everyone knows this.
During the dinner, everyone was present, but there were only five people sitting at the main table.
Li Qi, Xiao Jijia, Sai Qianqian, Zong Mixing, and the owner of the village.
As the owner, the owner of the village first introduced everyone, and then talked about his own Zong Mixing.
Just when he was about to mention the marriage, a servant suddenly ran in in a hurry: "Master! It's not good!"
"Didn't you see that I was entertaining distinguished guests? How could I be so hurried?" The master of the village looked at the servant with a displeased look.
"Master... someone in the village has been infected with the plague!" As soon as the servant said this, everyone's faces became solemn.
The master of the sect suddenly stood up and asked: "Who is infected? Where is it?"
"Some time ago, when the master asked people to distribute relief food to the victims, someone accidentally became infected, but they were not discovered at the time. After returning to the village, many people developed symptoms of fever and cough..." The servant hesitated as he spoke.
After a while, it was obvious that there was something to hide.
"Just tell me if you have anything!" shouted the sect leader.
The servant hurriedly knelt on the ground and said: "But there are not many people infected, so I didn't dare to tell the master. But today...several people who were infected died today."
"Who are they?" Li Qi couldn't help but ask.
"They are all kitchen cooks."
After hearing this, everyone was startled and couldn't help but look at the dishes on the table.
Li Qi's heart skipped a beat: Grandma, isn't this a fool's errand?
Aren’t the fruits, cakes, and meals I’ve been eating these past few days likely to have viruses?
The sect leader's expression turned extremely ugly, and he was obviously about to have a seizure.
At this time Zong Mixing said: "Where are those patients now?"
The servant said with a crying face: "They are all in the back mountain..."
"How many people are there?"
"More than thirty..."
Zong Mixing hesitated and said, "Take me to see it."
"Ah?" The servant was stunned, "Miss, this..."
"Take me there if you ask me to." Zong Mixing said forcefully.
The servant stood up and had no choice but to nod.
"Dad, let me go over and take a look first." Zong Mixing said to the master of the sect.
The sect leader nodded and seemed to have no intention of objecting.
