If Louis is handsome to some extreme, it is almost like Prince Paris who gave the golden apple to Aphrodite who came out of mythology, or like an archangel who sounded the trumpet of Doomsday and descended from the clouds with fire and thunderbolts; The next friend that Armand introduced to Joseph was almost another extreme in appearance.

It's a short, thin man. He had a sallow face, two eyes one large and one small, and a large, flat nose, as if someone had slapped it so hard that it had flattened it. His forehead is also flat, but his jaw is very thick and protruding outward. This made his mouth appear extraordinarily large, and he looked at it like a toad. Add to that the thin, but somewhat protruding finger joints of the palms, and the dark and yellow skin that looks extraordinarily dry due to skin diseases, and the flipped black and yellow skin, it's like a monster that slipped out of a nightmare.

"Joseph, this is my friend Mr. Marat."

"Nice to meet you." Joseph nodded and held out his hand to him.

Marat also reached out and took Joseph's hand. But he had a shallow grip and almost just gently pinched the tip of Joseph's finger with the tip of his finger. Joseph found that Marat's hands were quite cold.

"Monsieur Bonaparte, I have read your paper, and you think that light is a wave?" Marat said slowly, his voice just as cold.

"It's not that I think, it's the available evidence that makes me more inclined to this judgment. I don't have a preconception about whether light is a particle or a wave. Joseph replied.

"Why don't you dare to unequivocally support your point of view, and cover your position with such weak statements? Is this because you don't have confidence in your own judgment? Marat said in a mocking tone.

Joseph couldn't help frowning, and a sentence suddenly popped up in his heart: "There are many ugly people!" ”

Indeed, "ugly people are more to blame". Generally speaking, people who are too low-looking are prone to all kinds of discrimination in society, which often fills their hearts with anger and makes them full of aggression. In Joseph's view, Marat is one such type.

However, Joseph didn't really want to offend Marat at this time, because it was too dangerous to offend this guy. Although Joseph is not very clear about the history of the Revolution, (after all, before the crossing, this is foreign history, isn't it?) To be honest, to know Marat's name already shows that he didn't doze off in history and art classes) but he also knew that Marat was probably responsible for many of the horrific atrocities of the Revolution. I am afraid that there will be no shortage of personal vendettas, and Joseph does not want to provoke such a mad dog.

"Anyway, this guy won't live long, so let him do it first." Joseph suppressed his intention to ridicule each other and said this to himself.

"I really don't have a preconception about whether light is a wave or a particle. As for my point of view, my point of view is that what it really is depends on the experimental phenomenon as well as the mathematical explanation. I would also be happy if I could explain interference mathematically from the perspective of particles. After all, the world is so complicated, and the only thing we can really trust is mathematics. Joseph explained.

"Ah, Joseph, your view is a bit Pythagorean." Dandong on the side smiled, "Is everything counted?" ”

Pythagoras was a famous mathematician in ancient Greece. He and his disciples formed an important school, the Pythagoreans. One of the basic ideas of this school of thought is that "everything counts". They believe that mathematics is the only thing that can be used to describe the whole world, and that it is the true essence of the world.

"I'm not as fanatical as they are." Joseph smiled slightly, "At least, I won't throw someone into the sea just because he discovered an irrational number." But, my friend, think about it too. Is our vision reliable? Not necessarily, for example, I have found that some people see different colors than others. I want to ......"

"Wait...... What did you just say? You say that some people see different colors than others? Are you sure there are such people? Marat interrupted him suddenly.

"yes, what's wrong?" Joseph asked.

"Maybe it's a new, unnoticed disease." Mara said, "Can you tell me how you found out?" ”

"When I was a child, a friend of mine came to me one day and told me that he had noticed that my geranium flowers were different colors during the day and evening. The geranium flowers appear sky blue during the day, but the geranium flowers are bright red in the evening. But, it seems to me that at all times, those geranium flowers are pink. When I told him this, he was so surprised that he even suspected that there was something wrong with my eyes. So we asked a few more people, and it turned out that, with the exception of his brother, everyone agreed that the geranium should be pink. Later, we found out that his uncle also thought that the geranium flowers were blue during the day and bright red in the evening. But at the time I was very envious of them, because they could see two colors of geranium. ”

"Can that friend of yours come and show me?" Marat asked again.

"He's Corsican, and in Corsica, there's no way to find him right now." Joseph spread his hands.

"Ah......" said Marat, pouting harshly, "did you know that I have a friend who has an amazing bounce and can jump straight to the moon. ”

Joseph hurriedly said to himself several times in his heart, "Don't be like this guy", and only then did he suppress the urge to directly ridicule him. But at this time, Dandong spoke:

"Isn't it true that the color of the geranium flowers has not changed during the day and evening? It's just that I'm wrong? Is there a problem with my vision? ”

So everyone set their sights on Dandong together.

"Why are you staring at me like that?" Dandong Road.

"Dandong, in your eyes, will the color of the geranium flowers change during the day and evening?" Mara asked, staring at Dandong with the same eyes as he watched a rare animal.

"Yes...... Isn't that what you see? Danton asked rhetorically.

"What color do you see what color this is?" Marat asked suddenly, pointing to Louie's hair.

"Linen, I guess it's right?" Dandong was a little unsure.

"Well, yes, no problem...... Well, what color is Armand's hat? Marat asked again.

"It's green." Danton replied immediately.

"You take a look at it again?" Maradao.

Danton's eyes widened, staring at Armand's hat for a moment, and then said, "It's green." ”

"Oh my God! There really are people whose eyes see different colors than others! Armand's hat is obviously light red! Marat clapped his hands, and then he turned to Joseph and said, "Monsieur Bonaparte, look how sluggish you are, don't you know that this is a great discovery in medicine?" ”

"I'm not a doctor after all." Joseph smiled, "When it comes to medicine, I'm almost completely illiterate. ”

"Aren't you going to take a hard look at it?" Marat asked.

"No, it's not an area I'm familiar with and interested in, and there are a lot of math problems to be studied." Joseph replied, "Let's go back to the beginning." I think our vision is unreliable, and so is our hearing. Some people claim that they can hear sounds that others can't......"

"That's just a trick by the gods." Mara interjected.

"Ordinary people have times like this." "For example, when we dream, we can hear a lot of sounds that don't exist, and we can see a lot of things that don't exist. Our sight can fool us, our hearing can fool us, and even our imagination can fool us, like 0.9999...... Equal to one. However, math doesn't. Well, I remember which priest said: 'When the world is turned upside down, the cross stands.' I won't comment on whether the cross will stand or not, but I'm sure that even if the entire solar system were finished, I would be sure that the two points would still determine a straight line. Therefore, when everything else is unreliable, the only thing I can trust is mathematics. Since mathematical calculations show that light is most likely a wave, I admit that possibility. ”

"What if your mathematical calculations show that light is like a particle a lot of the time?" Marat asked again.

"Then it could be a particle." Joseph replied.

"Hopelessly Pythagoreans." Marat shook his head and said, "Monsieur Bonaparte, truth is not merely presented through mathematics, it has other, higher ways of presenting. ”

"In what way?" Joseph asked.

"Intuition from the soul." Marat replied, "Have you read 'On the Soul of Man' and 'Philosophical Treatise on Man'? I think some of these are very reasonable. For example, if different people's eyes see different colors, it must have something to do with their souls......"

"On the Soul of Man" and "Philosophical Treatise on Man", Lavoisier was talking about these two things, and when he mentioned Marat, he mentioned these two things:

"That Marat, in his nonsensical essays, also quoted the same two nonsensical essays, what nonsense in 'On the Soul of Man' and 'Philosophical Treatises on Man'. With that chaotic way of thinking, I'm sure that the two anonymous things were also written by him. ”

Now it seems that Lavoisier's speculation should be very reliable.

"I really didn't expect that in this era, I could also meet Minke." Joseph couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

However, the experience of later life has taught him not to try to convince a Minke, not to try to argue with a Minke, because he will forcibly pull you down into the field of low IQ, and then use his rich SB experience to defeat you. When you are faced with a civil science, the only wise thing to do is to agree with him, encourage him, and raise him to be a big SB.
