Nandu is two hundred kilometers away from S City, Shen Luo and his party left Fangzhuang, stopping and stopping all the way, and wasting a lot of time by the way, eating and drinking, resulting in the passage of the day only two-thirds of the way to pass.

Along the way, Shen Xiao couldn't help but want to ask Ying Mulan about the questions he had hidden in his heart, but Ying Mulan kept hanging her appetite and changed the topic in various ways, but she refused to reveal a little secret she knew.

After the group stayed at the hotel that night, Shen Luo knocked on the door of Ying Mulan's room alone.

Ying Mulan was very helpless when she saw Shen Luo: "You won't pester me to ask questions again, right?"

Shen Luo smiled, saying all kinds of good things on his lips, but he let him say all the good things, and even pretended to turn his face and spill in the end, but Ying Mulan still didn't eat oil and salt, but laughed happily.

Shen said angrily: "Do you think I'm happy to play with me?"

Ying Mulan smiled: "No, no, no, how dare I play with you, you know no, you are my idol, I can't help but feel happy if I can tease you so much that I lose your temper, and I feel a sense of accomplishment!"

Shen Luo rolled his eyes: ", whose fans would make their idols angry? Isn't it a black fan?"

Ying Mulan: "Okay Lao Shen, there are more than thirty people, don't you have any concentration at all?" When you get to the base, you will tell you everything you want to know, this is a decision passed by all O5, I can go to the base tomorrow morning, I can't wait for a few hours? What about you, just give me a peaceful sleep!"

Shen Luo said helplessly: "Okay, I can't give up, then can I ask some other unrelated things?"

Ying Mulan said: "Question baby, what are you going to ask, let's hear it." ”

Shen Luo: "Do you know what a heavenly ghost is?"

Ying Mulan looked at Shen Luo suspiciously and replied, "I know a little bit." ”

Shen Luo was pleasantly surprised: "You actually know!"

Ying Mulan nodded, but asked rhetorically, "Do you know Mo Qu?"

Shen Luo: "You mean the Mo family giants in the Spring and Autumn Period?"

Ying Mulan continued: "That's right, it is this generation of people who are respected as Mozi by later generations. Mozi wrote "Heavenly Chronicles" and "Ming Ghosts", among which in "Ming Ghosts", Mozi divided ancient and modern ghosts and gods into three categories, including the heavenly ghosts you said. ”

Shen slightly frowned and said, "That's it?"

Ying Mulan smiled: "Otherwise, what do you think?"

Shen Luo said seriously: "If you say that heavenly ghosts are ghosts and gods, can you just say no, it's over? You still need to mention Mozi in circles, I think you must have some special opinion." ”

Ying Mulan smiled: "My opinion? My opinion is that the so-called heavenly ghost is a combination of heaven and ghost. Heaven is the heaven in "Heavenly Chronicles", and ghosts are ghosts in "Ming Ghosts", and the integration of concepts in these two books is the real heavenly ghosts. ”

"The so-called will of heaven is the clear law of the world. The world here naturally encompasses all things in the universe, so what will be the clear law that all things must follow? Nature is the law of this world, such as the natural law of the rising and setting of the sun, the rotation of the four seasons, the return of rivers to the sea, and so on. As Mozi said in "Chronicles of Heaven": "I have a will for heaven, such as the rules of the wheel and the rules of the craftsman." The wheelsmith adheres to its rules in order to save the world. ”

"The Chronicles of Heaven embodies Mozi's thought, which itself has a certain materialist and scientific spirit. The Mohists were good at the art of tricks, making four-wheeled vehicles, balances, pistons and vibrators, etc., and left many ancient scientific academic classics such as small hole imaging and early atomic theory for future generations, all kinds of signs show that the Mohists began to explore and apply natural science as far back as the Spring and Autumn Period. ”

But I found in Mozi, who advocated science and followed nature, that he was a contradictory individual, and he wrote "Ming Ghosts" at the same time as his book "Chronicles of Heaven", and quoted many ancient legends of seeing gods and ghosts in "Ming Ghosts" to prove the existence of ghosts and gods. ”

"Many people think that Mozi's theory of ghosts and gods is just a tool for him to use, a means to play with the ignorance of the ancients. By advocating respect for heaven and ghosts, his fundamental purpose is to realize the social and political ideal of "loving each other and benefiting each other" and achieving the rule of the world from troubled times. ”

However, I think that the reason behind Mozi's combination of the natural laws of the universe with the human mind and the exposition of this theory that is both idealistic and materialistic is not simple. ”

Shen Luo was stunned when he heard this, and praised: "Team leader, have you done a special research project?

Ying Mulan smiled mysteriously: "If I say that this is a compulsory course, do you believe it?"

Shen Luo felt strange: "What kind of compulsory course is still this!"

Ying Mulan secretly laughed in her heart, she really wanted to say to Shen Luo, the signature of the deputy editor-in-chief on the second page of the textbook of the compulsory course is your old name.

Ying Mulan replied with a look of displeasure: "What compulsory courses do you care about me! Do you still want to listen to me?"

Shen Luo hurriedly shut up and motioned for Ying Mulan to continue.

Ying Mulan continued: "Coincidentally, it is not uncommon for someone like Mozi to be a persistent scientist but firmly believe in the theory of gods and ghosts. For example, Newton, for example, Einstein, in their later years also began to turn their focus to theological research, and science did not make them immediately understand the origin of all things, but instead attributed them to the Almighty Creator. ”

The great scientist Isaac Newton once hosted a stubborn atheist and invited him to look at his homemade solar system star orbiter, and the guests were amazed at its precision. Newton humorously said: No one makes it, it is all spontaneous and random. ”

The atheist thought it was impossible, and Newton asked rhetorically: Since you think that it is impossible for a small star to arise spontaneously, randomly, and by chance, why do you insist that this vast universe and everything is created by random and accident? Newton further asked: Where there is no matter? Where does the gravitational pull of the sun and the planets come from? Why is everything in the universe orderly? What is the function of the planets? Are the eyes of animals designed according to the principle of optics? Isn't there a Creator in the universe?"

Albert Einstein once said that what is known to mankind is a finite circle, and what is unknown is that the world outside the circle is infinite. Theology, of course, is unscientific. But as a person who studies science, he knows very well that science can only prove the existence of a certain object, not the non-existence of a certain object. ”

Do you feel that these two scientists are as contradictory as Mozi? They also believe in science and identify with ghosts and gods, and combine idealism and materialism. So the question arises again, what could be the reason for this change?"

Shen Luo pondered: "Could it be that they have all encountered many things that science cannot explain, or even violate the laws of nature?" Shen Luo trembled in his heart after speaking, and pressed natural science on the ground to rub things, isn't it talking about containment!

Ying Mulan looked at Shen Luo's surprised expression and knew that he had already thought of the answer in his heart, so he continued: "If Tianzhi is scientific and natural, then Ming Ghost is unscientific and unnatural. As you think, this unscientific, unnatural thing is a lot like the containment we are dealing with now, right?"

Shen Luo retorted: "No, it is also possible that these great scientists have discovered problems that they cannot overcome in scientific research, after all, scientific theories have the characteristics of the times - both the applicability of the times and the scientific bottlenecks of the times." ”

"For example, the theories of classical physics can no longer be fully applied after entering the era of quantum physics. The development of quantum physics has reached a bottleneck so far, and it is impossible to make progress. So isn't it because they can't reach the end of science in their lifetime, and they choose a kind of spiritual sustenance?"

Ying Mulan replied with a smile: "No, this is different, when a person pursues another contrary belief from one faith, it is very likely to give up the original belief, but Mozi is different, for Mozi, Tianzhi is his worldview, and Ming ghosts are also his worldview, he just added Ming ghosts to the natural laws of Tianzhi to make up for his own theory, obviously in Mozi's heart, there are natural laws alone can not constitute the entire universe, and an idealistic variable must be added in order to make Mozi's universe model tend to be round." ”

"Assuming that all of these people have come into contact with the containment object, when they use a scientific attitude to study the containment, they must be confused......"

Shen Luo stopped Ying Mulan from continuing: "Don't say it, it's impossible, isn't the first containment object an appetite birthday cake? If there were containments in the Spring and Autumn Period, then where are those containment......s now?"

Ying Mulan said, "You mean to say: if a world has its first containment, there will be countless containments. Really?"

Shen opened his mouth wide and said in surprise, "How would you know!" I learned about this containment theorem from Containment Object-0, so where did Ying Mulan learn about it!

Ying Mulan said with a solemn expression: "The reason why you asked about the Heavenly Ghost is really because you have already come into contact with the Heavenly Ghost!"

Ying Mulan sighed and said, "Then I'll tell you what a heavenly ghost is." The so-called heavenly ghosts are the root of all evil that governs all natural and unnatural laws!"

Shen Luo: "The root of all evil?!"
