The fog on the surface of the sea gradually dissipated. After the fog cleared, between the sea and the sky, it was as if a huge picture scroll had been torn apart.

It was a picture of mountains and rivers. There are green mountains on the screen, and there is even clear water around.

Between the mountains and rivers, there are still faint figures shaking.

"Immortals, traces of immortals." Under the high platform, in the crowd, someone shouted loudly.

As someone shouted the word immortal, the voices below kept kneeling and chanting immortals.

"Your Majesty, immortals, true immortals. This is absolutely true. At this moment, you should send a fast boat, go to sea, and look for immortals. Luan Da immediately knelt down and said while kowtowing to the immortal.

Liu Che originally wanted to kneel, but with a sweep of his eyes, he saw Yan Ming standing there, proud of the grand scenery in the east, but he didn't mean to kneel at all.

He didn't kneel, but looked at Yan Ming and said, "What does Master Hou think?" ”

In Liu Che's inquiry, he obviously lacked confidence. Obviously, Luan Da and the others' immortal words made him believe it.

Even the emperor, who claims to be the Son of Heaven, is nothing more than an ant-like existence in the face of real immortals.

First of all, in terms of mentality, he has already become a low-profile person.

Yan Ming didn't want to see Liu Che's embarrassment.

He said indifferently: "Your Majesty, this mirage is a rare spectacle, it often appears in coastal cities, and it can be regarded as an occasional occurrence in inland places, but after all, it is a minority. Xu Jia, quickly get the binoculars and let Your Majesty feast your eyes. ”

Xu Jia knelt on the ground, thinking that it was really an immortal descending to earth, and he didn't dare to move.

Liu Che saw Yan Ming saying lightly, and he was a little shaken by the statement that the mirage was an immortal.

looked at Xu Jia and said, "Do as Master Hou says." ”

Xu Jia got up at this time, found the telescope at a trot, and respectfully gave it to Liu Che.

"I'd like to take a good look." Liu Che raised the binoculars and looked in the direction of the mirage.

Luan, who was kneeling on the ground, said loudly: "Your Majesty, this is an immortal. If you don't take this opportunity to go to sea to seek immortals, it will be a tyrannical thing! ”

"Your Majesty, seeking immortals depends on whether you are determined or not. If you are not resolute enough, you will definitely not be able to succeed in seeking immortals. Please also ask Your Majesty to let the grass people set off with Yanhou's fast boat. Luan Da roared like a crow.

Yan Ming glanced at this Luan Da with some irritability, and said: "Luan Da, you are nothing more than a god stick, you want to deceive His Majesty the Emperor in the East China Sea to seek immortals, even if you don't want your own life, don't you want your own nine clans?" ”

Luan's face was red and white.

He was originally a fisherman in this Penglai Harbor, and he had seen a little bit of the scenery of this mirage.

The fishermen are ignorant, and they all think that this mirage is a fairy apparition.

At this point, Luan Da did not deceive Liu Che.

However, the clippers he said were chasing the immortals, which he really imagined.

When Haibin was fishing, he saw a mirage, and he once chased it by boat, but he chased it farther and farther, and never met the gods.

Luan Da thought that his ship was not fast enough, so he thought that the emperor's ship must be fast, and the pursuit of immortals would definitely be successful.

The truth that a person soars and a chicken and a dog ascends to heaven, although Luan Da has never heard of it, he still understands it.

He also has a dream of seeking immortals, but when he failed to seek immortals, he deceived some glory and wealth from the emperor by the way, which is still worth a try.

It's a pity that Luan Da met Yan Ming.

Yan Ming's indifferent eyes made Luan Da, who was already suspicious that this mirage was not an immortal, feel a little confused in his heart.

As soon as he heard that the lives of his nine clans might be put into it, Luan Da couldn't help but collapse on the ground.

Yan Ming didn't pay any attention to Luan Da anymore, but looked at the mirage in the east with Liu Che.

said: "This kind of mirage, the short one lasts less than a moment, and the long one is said to last for a few hours. Your Majesty can just take a look, and there is nothing to see after a long time. ”

Hearing Yan Ming say this, Liu Che knew that the scene in front of him was definitely not a fairy thing.

He put down the binoculars in his hand and said, "Dead monkey, you are so calm, you must know the mystery of this, hurry up and tell me about it." ”

Yan Ming looked at the steel ships docked in the port outside, and couldn't help but sigh when he looked at the crowd kneeling on the ground.

His own steel ship should be the protagonist of today. I didn't expect to be robbed of the limelight by a mirage.

There is no way, no matter how advanced manpower is, if you want to compete with nature, you still can't do it easily.

If there are really gods in this world, I'm afraid it's that nature.

"Your Majesty, the principle of this thing is nothing too wonderful. Xu Neishi, please go get water for one night. Yan Ming explained to Liu Che and said to Xu Jia.

"Master Hou is polite, the little one will go." Xu Jia was very grateful to Yan Ming for covering up before, and immediately went to prepare a bowl of water and brought it over when he heard the words.

Yan Ming inspected and found that on this high platform, there were also chopsticks and desserts for eating.

He walked over, picked up the chopsticks, and said to Liu Che, "Your Majesty, look." ”

Liu Che looked at the chopsticks after putting them into the water. With the water surface as the dividing line, it was bent together.

"It's commonplace, what does it have to do with the scene outside?" Liu Cheqi said.

Yan Ming said: "It has a lot to do with it. These things, to put it bluntly, are all effects of the refraction of light. ”

"Refraction of light?" Liu Che said with some doubts.

Yan Ming nodded and said, "That's right, it's the refraction of light." His Majesty's weakness is to study this, and he needs to go to Hongyantang to systematically learn the knowledge of optics. ”

Yan Ming asked Xu Jia to take the paper and spread it on the ground. And he just fell to the ground like that, and first drew a diagram of the light path of chopsticks refracted in the water.

Pointing to the light path map, he explained: "Your Majesty, this is the light path map of why the chopsticks are bent. You see. ”

Liu Che looked down at the light path diagram of the light refraction and said, "Interesting." ”

Yan Mingqi said: "Your Majesty can understand? ”

Liu Che nodded and said, "This picture is not difficult, these lines with arrows you draw, are they lights?" ”

Yan Ming gave a heartfelt thumbs up and said, "Your Majesty, the minister is not flattering, you are really smart." ”

Liu Che's face turned red rarely, and he reached out and slapped Yan Ming's head and smiled: "I am the Son of Heaven, how can I not be smart." ”

Yan Ming smiled and nodded again and again, but he was a little unkind.

If it weren't for Xu Jia and Luan Dazai, Liu Che would pull his neck and ask.

Yan Ming casually drew a big circle on the paper, even if it represented the earth.

Then, in a very rough way, he drew a small figure on the earth.

said: "This is the location of the minister, let's think it is the Penglai Port of the East China Sea." ”

Na Luan Da didn't know when, but he also came over and said, "According to Master Hou, we are living on the same ball?" ”

originally thought that Yan Ming would deny it, but how did he know that he nodded, and even Liu Che did not express surprise.

Luan Da was a little confused.
