Chapter 626: Shocking and enlightening
When Chen Long said that Dadi scored a goal, he was immediately shocked. Everyone thought that Chen Long was crazy. Only Zheng Xuan asked: "Huaiyang, you said that Dadi scored a goal and it was still spinning. It's really unbelievable. You Is there any evidence?”
Chen Long immediately thought of the heliocentric and geocentric theories, Nicolaus Copernicus, who was considered a heretic by the Holy See, and Giordano Bruno, who was burned alive in the Campo de' Fiori in Rome. I don’t know if I would be judged as an alien by those in power if I spoke out about the heliocentric theory. Thinking that he was in power and had a powerful army at his command, what was so scary about it? He said calmly: "The horizon we see on weekdays is not straight, but has an arc. Even on the plains, we need to Only by climbing high can we see far, and the higher we climb, the farther we can see; if we try to find the position of the horizon, there will always be a new horizon; the river boats on the big rivers coming from far away will always be seen first The mast was seen, and then the hull was seen. On the other hand, the sailboat was seen sailing away from the shore. The hull disappeared first, and then the mast disappeared."
"If a person is on a boat, he will first see the top of the distant hill, and then he will see the foot of the mountain when he reaches the shore. If we keep heading due east, climb the mountain when we see it, and cross the sea when we see the sea, then we will eventually return to the sea. To the starting point.”
"As for rotation, we see the sun rising from the east and setting from the west every day, not because the sun rotates around the earth, but because the earth itself rotates. At twelve hours every day, the earth rotates exactly once, so The cycle repeats itself. When the earth faces the sun, it is day; when the earth faces away from the sun, it is night." Chen Long weighed for a long time, but still did not reveal the secret of the sun's revolution, otherwise it would be shocking to the world, and he would not know how to explain it.
You could hear a needle drop in the lobby. Zheng Xuan was stunned for a long time and suddenly asked: "Why don't people feel dizzy when standing on a rotating sphere?"
This question was originally difficult to answer, but Chen Long had a plan in mind: "Because I'm used to it! Ever since a person was conceived in his mother's womb, he has been rotating synchronously with the earth, and all the reference objects around him have been rotating synchronously on the surface of the earth. So you won’t feel out of place. At the same time, because the earth itself is so huge, it can attract all objects on the ground, so wherever you are on the earth, it will not affect your understanding of up, down, left, and right.”
The discussion buzzed again and became unstoppable. Zheng Xuan was stunned for a while, and finally stretched out his hand to lower his voice and said: "The earth is like a ball, what can support it?"
"The earth is like a ball, suspended in the universe! Just because the earth is a sphere, it doesn't matter up or down, because there is no so-called bottom at all! How can the vast universe be understood with everything we see in front of us! The earth has an underground, but the universe has no bottom! On the earth, when something falls, it always falls directly to the ground. Is there a place in the universe where the earth can fall? The answer is no!" Chen Long became more and more excited as he talked, and he could no longer justify himself.
As soon as he finished speaking, several tribal leaders, including Song Jian, roared: "Shut up! This is unheard of and alarmist, beat this person out quickly!" Seeing his father Zhang Ji's face darkened, Zhang Ji stood up and ordered Zhang Sheng and Jiang Wei said: "Kick this person out!"
Seeing that the momentum was not going well, Chen Long stood up and prepared to speak eloquently to fight. When he was in confusion, Zheng Xuan finally made a stop gesture, suppressed his excitement and shouted loudly: "Everyone, please be patient!"
Zheng Xuan's voice was quite loud, and it was somewhat broken. Everyone had never seen the elegant Zheng Xuan make such a loud voice. They were startled, and they all became quiet and stopped moving. Zheng Xuan waved his hand and said: "There was the Spring and Autumn Period in the past, and the Warring States Period in the later period. With the emergence of different schools of thought among our scholars and among the various families and schools, there was a situation where a group of talented people competed for the best, and there was a grand occasion of a hundred schools of thought contending. If we also let this young man If a brother is convicted for his words, isn't it just like Qin Shihuang burning books and humiliating scholars?"
"Little brother Huaiyang, what you said is just your family's opinion. Not only is the answer unbelievable, but the evidence is also illusory. Therefore, I cannot agree with your statement." In fact, the evidence Chen Long said is not illusory, but It was just too shocking for these ancients to recognize.
Zheng Xuan no longer hesitated and finally concluded: "The mysteries of heaven and earth cannot be understood by humans like us, so this matter is my fault. I should not ask such a mysterious question without an answer. Please stop worrying about the question of heaven and earth and return to learning. Come up."
Everyone was in an uproar. Seeing that Zheng Xuan did not agree with what Chen Long said, Zhang Ji boldly asked: "Master Zheng is here! Can I ask if the answer just given by the disciple just now can be included in the list?" It turned out that he saw Zheng Xuan was going to continue to lecture. , hurriedly asked himself whether he could obtain the qualification.
Zheng Xuan's voice was a little dull, and he seemed to be immersed in Chen Long's answer. After hearing this, he thought for a while and replied: "The debate just now was very exciting, but General Xiao Zhang's answer is still the most reliable, and it has been recognized and approved by the leader of the horse gang." If you mention something, you will naturally get the qualifications." Zhang Jiwen couldn't help but clench his fists and look up to the sky like a roar. This question was disturbed by Chen Yuan. It was really ups and downs, but in the end, his wish was fulfilled.
Seeing Zhang Ji's name written on the whiteboard, Chen Long couldn't help but glance at Ma Yunluo. Seeing that this beauty seemed a little calm, he didn't know whether he was happy that Zhang Ji was on the list, or regretful that Chen Long couldn't be on the list.
Zheng Xuan's voice suddenly came: "Little brother Huaiyang! Your theory of heaven and earth is deafening. It is the only one I have seen in my life, and it is extremely fresh to hear. The truth lies between the presence and absence. No matter what, I should give it again today. Your chance to be on the list."
Chen Long was overjoyed when he heard this. He glanced at Ma Yunluan and said, "Thank you, Master Zheng! Please feel free to ask questions."
Zheng Xuan had obviously thought about it and said: "After the rituals and music, I am going to start a lecture on the "I Ching". My question is, please tell everyone what you know about the "I Ching". If you can teach it well, there will naturally be opportunities. On the list.”
Chen Long smiled and said: "This is a big question! I believe that the "Book of Changes" covers everything, governs ethics, is vast and subtle, and is all-encompassing. It is the source of the civilization of the Central Plains. Its content involves philosophy, politics, life, literature, It covers many fields such as art and science, and is the first of many classics, a classic shared by Confucianism and Taoism."
Zheng Xuan nodded slightly, and Chen Long continued: "Since the creation of the heaven and the earth, all things have been muddy and ignorant. Based on Yin and Yang, the celestial bodies began in the Arctic wilderness, and the sun and the moon rotated around the five latitudes; the signs of the sky, the rituals of the earth, The stems and branches are used to determine the sun and the month. The ancients observed images and told time to determine the principles of heavenly stems, earthly branches, yin and yang, five elements, and the eight trigrams. The eight trigrams are connected with the time and direction of the stems and branches. They belong to the same system. The concepts of time and space and yin and yang have existed in ancient times. It developed into a systematic world view and cosmology, using the unity of opposites of yin and yang, heaven and earth, hardness and softness to explain all changes in the universe and human society, and summarized it into the "Book of Changes"."
Before he finished speaking, Zheng Xuan clapped his hands and said, "This paragraph is very good! Please continue!"
