Chapter 3 Painting Pies(2/2)
History is truly utilitarian. If your predecessors read history books, they will find that those who can really leave traces in history are 'useful' people who are pushing history forward. But useless people cannot even leave traces.
.
this is the truth!"
Zhao Dahe's expression changed for a long time, and finally he sighed and lowered his head.
"But there is an opportunity now. The Kingdom of Qixia is going to explore the outer sea, and it will inevitably use astrologers. But senior, have you ever thought about it, if the exploration of the outer sea is completed, or one day in the future we can no longer continue to explore, then the future astrology
Will the division decline again?"
"This...this..." Zhao Dahe began to struggle. This master of the Nascent Soul stage was unknowingly guided by Zhang Hao's thoughts.
The whistle sounded outside the car, the people gathered, the locomotive started to ignite, a little clanking sound of steel came, and the vehicle gradually began to accelerate.
Zhang Hao stopped talking, and after five or six minutes, the vehicle began to speed and rushed out of Guangling City. The scenery outside the window flashed quickly. The carriage did not use glass, but a simple barrier but not so transparent.
Zhang Hao suddenly pointed to the carriage queue not far away on the road: "Senior, how long do you think the carriages can be used with the appearance of trains?
Carriages... have served mankind for tens of thousands of years. But... they will eventually be eliminated. Maybe one day in the future, we can only see horse-drawn carriages in separate exhibition halls."
Zhao Dahe looked at the carriage that was quickly thrown away in the distance, his eyes a little straightened. Now the speed of the train has reached 100 kilometers per hour; while the carriage studied at a speed of about 60 kilometers per hour, it still has the glory of the highway. And the carriage
The transportation capacity is obviously inferior to that of trains.
After a series of explanations, Zhang Hao saw that Zhao Dahe was deep in thought, the corners of his mouth slightly raised and he started writing. It was time to serve the feast.
"Senior, in fact, the world is always changing. The only constant is change itself! A thing that doesn't know how to change and has no development direction, even if it can achieve temporary success, it will not last long.
I think that the current situation of astrology and astrologers may be a good thing. In this way, everyone can fully think about new changes and development directions."
“Because star manipulation is a part of astrology, I also have a basic understanding of astrology.
Senior, astrology is not accurate, have you ever thought about why?"
Zhao Dahe shook his head slightly: "I have thought about it a bit, but I am not sure. I can only be sure that the stars in the sky and people are not in a one-to-one correspondence. But there is more... I don't quite understand."
Zhang Hao pointed to the nearby hilltop: "Isn't this hilltop big?"
Zhao Dahe nodded.
Zhang Hao pointed to the mountains in the distance again: "The mountains in the distance look very small, less than the size of a palm from a distance. Senior, which one is bigger, that mountain or the mountain in front of you?"
Zhao Dahe frowned slightly: "Although it looks small, it is obviously big from a distance!"
Zhang Hao smiled: "Senior, at such a distance, the mountains in the distance look very small. Senior, have you ever thought that the sun, moon, and stars in the sky are just stars? How big... are they?"
"Well..." Zhao Dahe's eyes suddenly brightened, and he looked at Zhang Hao with a burning gaze: "What does Master Zhang know?"
"No, I don't know anything! I'm just a guess. When I was on the sea before, when I came back from my first voyage, the first thing I saw was the light of the lighthouse, and then I saw the land.
While observing the sea trial of the Iron Duke, I saw the hull gradually disappearing under the sea, and in the end I could only see the black smoke from the chimney. When the Iron Duke returned, I saw black smoke first, and then the ship.
body.
This has been the case on several voyages. This is obviously not an accidental phenomenon!
So I have a bold, or rather deviant, incredible conjecture: Could it be that the world beneath our feet is also... a star?
The sun in the sky is a star, and the moon is also a star, but compared to other stars, it is very close to us.
And the stars seem to be floating in the endless void!"
"This...this...this is impossible!" Zhao Dahe opened his mouth wide, eyes widened, and seemed to have stopped breathing.
Zhang Hao stopped talking and suddenly pointed at an eagle in the sky, "The eagle looks as big as a mosquito. This is still the distance we can see. Have seniors measured how far away the moon and the sun are from us?
?"
Zhao Dahe stopped talking. He quickly pulled out an old book on astrology and started rummaging through it frantically.
Zhang Hao looked at it and realized that the book was probably made of excellent Gastrodia paper, but it was already yellowing and fluffy, so it was obviously very old.
Zhao Dahe looked through it for a while, then suddenly became excited and said in a very high-pitched tone: "Yes, yes, Patriarch..."
"Stop!" Zhang Hao suddenly yelled, and then slowly said: "Senior, let's discuss it when we go back. Be careful that walls have ears!"
Zhao Dahe nodded excitedly, but held the book in both hands and flipped through it excitedly.
Chapter completed!
