Chapter 228: Physics Lesson in Another World
Just as Zhao Duan began to popularize physics.
In the deepest part of Tianshi Mansion, in a quiet and secluded courtyard.
Under the big banyan tree, the Queen of Dayu, dressed as Kundao today, also met the legendary figures of Dayu, the four Taoist masters with the most experience and the most mysterious realms.
Zhang Yanyi.
"You're here."
Zhang Yan, who was tall, with narrow eyebrows and a warm smile, had been waiting for a long time in the morning. He sat under the big banyan tree and motioned for the empress to take a seat.
Next to her, Jin Jian was also present. Today, her identity was the boy beside the master.
This time, he changed his usual carefree temper, brought the coffee table and poured tea for the two of them.
"It's been a long time since we last met. The Heavenly Master is even more elegant than before."
Xu Zhenguan dragged her long skirt as she walked to the empty bamboo chair, sat down leisurely with a calm smile on her face.
Zhang Yanyi looked at her quietly and sighed:
"It's been a long time since we last met. Your Majesty's imperial aura is growing stronger day by day, while your cultivation aura is decreasing day by day."
Xu Zhenguan smiled bitterly:
"The Heavenly Master's speech is still so ruthless. It's just that the government affairs are so numerous, and I thought it would be easier to share the burden with someone, but the rebels are restless..."
Zhang Yan waved his hand, interrupting her, and closed his eyes and said:
"I don't understand the important affairs of state, but I still miss the days when Your Majesty came over and we could talk and discuss things."
Xu Zhenguan was silent, and he understood why the old Taoist priest had such an attitude.
She clearly remembered that when she was the daughter of the Third Emperor, she stayed at the Tianshi Mansion and Zhang Yanyi praised her talent for cultivation.
It was once said that if Xu Zhenguan devoted himself to cultivation, he would have the potential to catch up with Emperor Taizu of Dayu.
Because of this admiration, he spent a lot of energy to guide and teach, but in the end Xu Zhenguan ascended the throne and became emperor.
His cultivation was delayed due to the important affairs of state.
In the eyes of a hermit like the old Taoist priest, the secular world is not worth mentioning compared to the Tao.
Therefore, people felt very sorry that Xu Zhenguan gave up his practice.
I feel a little annoyed because it’s a pity, but it’s ultimately a personal choice.
Although Zhang Yanyi felt regretful, he was not really angry, he just complained.
At this moment, seeing that the empress did not answer, he took the initiative to speak, found a few topics and chatted.
After all, I still care about her practice.
However, the higher the different traditions go, the more different the difficulties they face become.
The so-called conversation was only superficial.
However, for Jin Jian, who was sitting on a small bench, the sentences spoken casually by the two great monks in the Heavenly Realm were already obscure and difficult to understand.
So the girl had no choice but to hug her knees, stretch her neck, open her mouth slightly, and act focused, but in fact her eyes were distracted and her mind was empty.
If he makes a few "Aba Aba" sounds, he will be no different from a idiot.
When Jin Jian came to his senses, he found that the two had finally stopped talking about cultivation.
"When I came in, I saw a new couplet on the archway at the second gate. I wonder who wrote it?"
Xu Zhenguan took a sip of tea and asked casually.
Jin Jian came back to his senses, his eyes focused, and he looked at her warily, then at his master.
"Haha, it was accidentally found by a priest below. I thought it was good, so I replaced it." Zhang Yan said shamelessly.
Jin Jian was very impressed and thought that what the master said was appropriate.
I didn't lie, I just concealed key information.
Xu Zhenguan's beautiful eyes flickered.
Although I was curious, I didn't ask any more questions. I just said "Oh" and said:
"The Tianshi Mansion is indeed full of talented people."
This sentence was just a polite remark, but it sounded a bit off to the master and disciple.
Thinking back to the Empress suddenly mentioning the couplet and asking about its origins... Jin Jian looked at his master and thought:
Could it be that His Majesty knew something and came to hint at our coming?
Zhang Yanyi was also a little unsure.
After all, with his status, it would be shameful for him to try to steal the empress's woman.
"Ahem,"
The old Taoist priest adjusted his sitting posture, with the demeanor of a master, and said casually:
"Your Majesty, there are also talented people emerging under your command. Although this old man sits in the courtyard, he has heard of some of them... For example, Jin Jian'er mentioned someone named..."
"Zhao Duan."
Jin Jian murmured in support and curled his lips.
I thought that Master was so shameless, pretending not to know me and having no shame.
"Yes, Zhao Duan,"
Zhang Yan laughed and said, "You've even brought your business to the Tianshi Mansion."
He tried to test the waters, wanting to make sure whether the empress knew that he had poached her.
Zhang Tianshi actually knew him... Was it mentioned in the golden tablet... Xu Zhenguan was slightly surprised and said with a smile:
"This person is indeed quite intelligent. He has come with me this time and is waiting outside. If the Heavenly Master is interested, how about calling him in?"
Her words didn't really have much meaning.
However, when the master and disciple heard it, they felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Oh no... Your Majesty, do you know?
Still doubtful?
So he was brought here on purpose, to test him and make the master look bad in front of him... Jin Jian had a stern face and looked extremely serious.
I couldn't help but look at Zhang Yanyi anxiously, wanting to see how the master would respond to His Majesty's attack?
Zhang Yanyi just gave the empress a meaningful look:
"Jin Jian'er, since His Majesty has spoken, go outside and ask. If the person is there, bring him in."
"……oh."
Jin Jian had no idea what his master was up to, so he went out obediently.
After a while, he came back.
The girl's expression was strange:
"Master, he...something happened outside."
The Empress and the Old Heavenly Master looked at her puzzledly at the same time:
"What happened?"
Jin Jian thought about what he had just heard and still found it hard to believe:
"They said Zhao Duan was invited by Fifth Senior Brother, and then... somehow, he started giving him a lecture... Now, many priests have heard the news and rushed over to watch the fun, blocking the area completely."
Xu Zhenguan was stunned, with an expression of disbelief on his face.
Zhao Duan?
Give lectures to Gongshu Tianyuan?
She couldn't help but look at the old Taoist priest inquiringly, but saw that Zhang Yanyi was also confused.
The next second, the old Taoist priest suddenly picked up the cup on the tea table and poured the tea into the air.
Wow!
In an instant, the tea splashed in the air and formed a dynamic "screen" of water curtain.
In the water curtain, there was a blocked courtyard with water impossible to get through. The picture zoomed in and clearly showed a messy room.
The figure of Zhao Duan standing in front of a whiteboard and giving a lecture.
Gongshu Tianyuan and several other sorcerers who practiced the artisan god brought a round stool and sat in front of him, listening attentively.
At this moment, Zhao Duan's voice was heard from the water curtain:
“…So, to understand why lenses distort images, we must first understand the refraction of light.”
"What is refraction?"
"That is, when light passes obliquely from one medium to another, its propagation direction changes, causing the light to be deflected at the boundary between the two media."
…
…
"medium?"
Inside the room, Gongshu Tianyuan, who was sitting upright like an elementary school student, ignored the sorcerers gathered in the courtyard and asked in confusion:
"May I ask, sir, what is a medium?"
Zhao Duan didn't answer immediately, but just glanced helplessly at the densely packed faces in the courtyard that were almost stuck to the window.
Gongshu Tianyuan said nervously:
"Are you worried that they might hear the secrets of knowledge? Don't worry, I'll drive them away right away..."
"...No need." Zhao Duan sighed.
He just didn't understand why so many people came for no apparent reason.
What should I do if His Majesty comes looking for me... Well, let's finish quickly and don't delay things.
Thinking of this, he calmed down and said:
"What is a medium? That's a good question. Well, to put it more figuratively, it's the substance through which water waves, sound waves, and light waves travel from one place to another."
…
ps: This chapter is a bit short, but it’s almost midnight, so I can only update it first. I will definitely finish writing this plot in the next chapter.
