I Am a Corrupt Official, But They Say I Am a Loyal Minister!

Lin Beifan thought about thousands of possibilities!

I thought that he would talk about the vastly different customs and customs in various places, I thought that he would talk about the magical animals and plants seen in various places, I thought that he would talk about the inexplicable and miraculous natural phenomena...

But I never expected that he would start talking. The world is round!

Is this what you, a scholar, should say?

That is science, something that scientists are studying, not something you, a scholar, should study and discuss!

Therefore, Lin Beifan broke through his defense instantly!

But in comparison, Lin Beifan is relatively calm. After all, he is still a socialist successor who grew up under the red flag and was influenced by materialism.

Although I accepted time travel and was possessed by the system, I still believe in science!

However, Yao Zheng, who was sitting next to him, was very uneasy:"Teacher, you said the world is round...how is this possible? Sages have always told us that the sky is round and the earth is round! Therefore, the world should be square and flat!"

The old man Luo Guanghai shook his head and said with a faint smile:"Zizheng, your view has always been the view that everyone is accustomed to! Ever since we started reading and writing, my husband has told us that the sky is round and the earth is flat! This conclusion, They all come from sages, from the ancients! But have you ever thought that sages might be wrong?"

Yao Zheng immediately said:"How could sages be wrong ?……"

"Why are sages infallible? The old man stroked his beard and smiled:"They are essentially human beings, they just learn more and understand more than ordinary people, so they can educate all living beings and be respected as sages by us!" However, as long as we are human, we will make mistakes! They keep saying that the sky is round and the earth is round, but is there any evidence?"

"this……"Yao Zheng frowned and seemed unable to think of anything.

"You see, they actually have no evidence to prove their point of view! But everyone regarded them as sages and their words as truth, so it was spread from word to word, and the three of them became tigers, and everyone believed it to be true!"

The old man smiled, his eyes full of wisdom.

"Teacher, you say the world is round, what evidence do you have?"Yao Zhengfu said

"There is a lot of evidence, I will tell you! The old man talked eloquently:"For example, we watched the big ship sailing away from the shore. As the ship sailed away, did you notice that the big ship would gradually disappear and make us invisible?""

"It will indeed disappear!"Yao Zheng nodded.

"Moreover, he disappears very regularly! The first thing we couldn't see was his hull, then the armor, then the masts, and finally the whole ship!"

"Yeah, what's wrong with that?"Yao Zheng was puzzled.

"Big problem! The old man slapped the table and stood up, and said excitedly:"If the world is flat, we should be able to see the ship from beginning to end. Why did he disappear?""

"this……"Yao Zheng is speechless

"This shows that the world is round! Because as the ship goes away, our sight is gradually blocked. First we can't see the hull, then we can't see the ship's armor, and then we can't see the ship's pole. Do you think that's right?"

"Ah this……"Yao Zheng was speechless, with sweat on his face

"To be precise, the world should be a round sphere, just like the sun we see!"The old man smiled.

Yao Zheng was once again dissatisfied:"Teacher, you said the world is a round sphere, so how can we stand on it without falling?"

"This... I have little knowledge and limited knowledge, so I can't explain it yet! However, I have a way to prove that people can stand on a sphere!"

The old man picked up a clean bowl, picked some soup on it, and put it on the ground.

After a while, the ants came over and climbed onto the bowl.

The old man picked up the bowl and said proudly:"Look , this bowl is curved, similar to half a sphere! However, the ant did not fall off even when he was standing on it. Even when the old man stood him upside down, it still remained the same! By the same token, if an ant can stand on a ball without falling off, why can't we humans?"

"this……"Yao Zheng was speechless again.

The old man looked at Lin Beifan:"Prime Minister, do you think what I said is correct?"

Lin Beifan nodded:"It does make some sense! Old sir, if you have any other discoveries, please tell me!"

"OK OK! Since the Prime Minister is so elegant, let me tell you more!

The old man Luo Guanghai's talk was brought up:"In addition to discovering that the world is round, I also discovered that our world actually revolves around the sun, not that the sun revolves around us!"

Lin Beifan:"Pfft!""

Lin Beifan is not calm again!

Good guy, he has even figured out the heliocentric theory!

This old man, he really can't stop talking without surprising you!

"How is that possible? Yao Zheng broke through the defense again and said in shock:"The earth beneath our feet is the beginning of all things and the center of the universe. How can we revolve around the sun?" Moreover, teacher, you see, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west every day, over and over again. It is obviously the sun that revolves around us! The old man smiled lightly:"

Zizheng, you have made a cognitive mistake again!" We have always thought that the land beneath our feet is the center of the universe where all things begin, but who told us this? Yao

Zheng sweated on his face:"He is an ancient man, a sage."……"

"Sages are human beings too, and they make mistakes too! They have always said that our place is the beginning of all things and the center of the universe. But is there any evidence to support their conclusion? Yao Zheng sweated profusely:"

This... seems to have no evidence!""

"That's right, they have no evidence, so their conclusions are unreliable! Yao

Zheng asked:"Teacher, what evidence do you have?" The old man shook his head and smiled:"I have limited abilities and short knowledge. I don't have clear evidence, but I can barely prove it to you!""

As he said this, he took the candle over and said,"Let's assume he is the sun!

Then, he took out another bowl and said,"We assume it is our world, a spherical world!" The old man took the candle and circled it around the bowl, saying:"You see, this is what we originally thought. The sun revolves around our world, from west to east, at sunrise and sunset." interest!"

Lin Beifan and Yao Zheng nodded.

"However, it can actually be rotated like this!"

As he said that, the old man fixed the candle in the center of the table, then took the bowl and turned it around in a circle.

"You see, from west to east, work begins at sunrise and rests at sunset!"

Lin Beifan was not calm again!

Good guy, he even figured out the theory of relativity!

This senior is a bit cool!

Yao Zheng was already sweating profusely:"This, this, this, this, this……"

He was speechless and felt that all the worldview he had learned before had collapsed!

The old man smiled proudly and said:"These are some of the conclusions I came from after traveling around, reading documents and materials from various places, and observing the changes in the sun, moon and stars! Although my views are a bit deviant, I firmly believe that I am right!"

Yao Zheng was already frightened! He slumped down and sat down, his face covered with sweat.

The old man ignored it. Instead, he looked at Lin Beifan, who was relatively calm next to him, and asked with some expectation:"Prime Minister, what do you think of my knowledge?"

He was full of expectations for Lin Beifan!

After all, the other party is also a rather deviant and full of whimsical ideas!

A character who has even created the flying artifact giant balloon, the water weapon hovercraft, and the house-building artifact cement, etc. should be more open-minded and active, and you should be able to understand him!

Lin Beifan gave a thumbs up:"Old senior, your knowledge makes people look at you differently and you have to be convinced! However, you were not the first to propose the idea that the world is round!"

"There are actually people of the same mind? who's that person?"The old man was very excited.

"That person's name is the Moon Worshiping Leader. He is not only a great scholar, but also powerful. He is also the most powerful person in the world today, and he is powerful all over the world!"

"The leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult sounds like an extremely domineering figure! And I also discovered the idea that the earth is round. I am not alone!"The old man sighed

"Old gentleman, but do you know what will happen when he puts forward this point of view?"

"What's up with him?"The old man asked.

Lin Fan chuckled:"After he raised this point of view, he was surrounded and beaten to death by the Son of Destiny and a group of people! He died miserably, with no bones left and even his ashes scattered!"

"Damn it!"The old man felt chilly all over.

"Also, you are not the first person to raise the idea of ​​heliocentrism! As far as I know, that person's name is Copernicus, and he first proposed this point of view! But do you know his fate?"

"How is he? A bad premonition surged in the old man's heart.

Lin Beifan covered his face:"He died worse than the leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult. He was burned alive!""

"Damn it!"The old man felt all over his bodycold

"Why are they all dead?"

"What else could it be because of? Because the views they put forward were unacceptable to the world and aroused everyone's confusion and anger, they were punished! Lin Beifan looked over maliciously:"Old sir, you are the third one!""

"Ouch!"The old man's face turned pale, his feet went weak, and he fell down.

"teacher! Teacher, how are you?"Yao Zheng hurriedly supported him and shouted anxiously.

The old man was sweating profusely:"I'm fine.……"

"Teacher, you said it’s okay, your back is soaked with sweat!

The old man blushed and said,"I'm just weak!""

The two old men sat down again, with sweat all over their faces, as if they had already visited the Lord of Hell.

"You know, disease enters through the mouth and disaster comes out of the mouth! Lin Beifan laughed while drinking:"So there are some things that you just need to know, and don't say them out!" Fortunately, you met me. If it had been anyone else, they might have done something unexpected if they got excited, and it would be too late to regret!"

"Yes, yes, the Prime Minister taught you a lesson!"The two humbly accepted

"Okay, don’t think so much, just have a glass of wine to calm down! After we finish our drinks, let’s talk about something else! Lin Beifan poured wine for the two of them.

After drinking a few glasses of wine, they finally felt less weak.
