Section 13 Conversation

"So, Mr. Bartoll, can you tell me where the gods are?" Alhassen's eyes were confused.

"No, I don't know. Maybe God doesn't exist at all," Old Law paused, suddenly remembering his own journey into this world, "maybe it is not an existence that mortals can touch, they are high, they are another kind of higher existence, never blending with our world. ”

"That means it can't be proven?" Al Hassen said.

"Yes, there is a saying about God in my hometown, would you like to hear it?"

"Please, Mr. Bartol."

"People there always say, 'Believe in God, and God is there; If you don't believe it, God won't blame you! Lao Luo couldn't help but think of what he said when he was a child, when he sacrificed to his ancestors.

It took a while for Alhasan to calm down and ask, "Mr. Bartol, where is your hometown?" ”

"Well, my hometown is in the far east." Lao Luo really didn't know what to say, thought about it, and simply said the east of this world, after all, that "will" is Lao Luo's hometown.

"Seljuk? No, no, you don't have the Seljuk smell of the wasteland; Oghuz? No, although the Oghuz people are tall, most of them have brown eyes and hooked noses...... "Alhasen didn't wait for Lao Luo to explain, and speculated to himself, "You must be a Serisian, only Seris people have such wisdom, but Seris seem to rarely have a tall ...... like you"

"Sorry, you're talking about the Seris?" Now it was Lao Luo's turn to be puzzled, he hadn't heard of this clan name.

"Oh, that's what the Romans say, the Arabs had contact with them more than a hundred years ago, when their empire was the Tang Dynasty." Al Hassen explained.

"Well, Datang was established by our ancestors, and I haven't been back to my hometown for a long time." Lao Luo suddenly realized that it was the name of the Romans for their own nation a long time ago.

"However, as far as I know, the names of the Tang Dynasty people are often single discontinuous pronunciations, your name?" After all, he is a university scholar, and he even knows a thing or two about this kind of thing.

"That's right, our whole clan is also divided into many side branches, I have two ethnic bloodlines, all of them have two ethnic names, one is called Batory Borjin, and the other is called Luo Kaixian." Lao Luo affirmed the other party's statement, and then reported his two names.

"That's right, that's it, Luo, open, let's ...... first" corrected his guess, Alhasen looked very happy, "That's the name, but it's awkward to read." ”

"Yes, in order to take care of those of you who don't bend their tongues, I have to suggest that they call me the name Badantel." Speaking of Lao Luo, he also has a lot of bad taste, talking about people around tricks, and he doesn't worry about being exposed for a while.

"The tongue doesn't bend?" Confused, Alhasan asked, "What do you mean?" ”

"Hehe, that's literal!" Lao Luo looked at the wooden-brained Alhasen and laughed, this is obviously a guy with a high IQ and low EQ, which is very interesting.

"Literally...... Literally......" Alhazen repeated in his mouth, and suddenly a sentence came, "Aha, you're joking, right?" No wonder some people say that Tang humor is subtle and intriguing. ”

"Hehe, yes, my friend." Lao Luo said with a smile, it is very easy to deal with such a person, and you don't have to worry so much.

"yes, we'll be friends, friends who can joke!" Alhazen was happy for a moment, and then muttered in a low voice, "It's so good, it's rare to have another friend to joke about." ”

"Alhasen, my friend, do you have something on your mind?" Lao Luo saw that his expression was a little wrong, and asked casually, "Let's talk about it, maybe I can solve your problem." ”

After a moment of silence, Alhasan said: "Bartol, my friend, you have traveled a lot and what do you think of our country? ”

"Well, your question is a bit big, and I don't see it very comprehensively......" Lao Luo looked up at Alhasen's expectant eyes, and said unconsciously, "The Arabs in my eyes are very hardworking and intelligent, and have courage and perseverance in the face of a harsh living environment. ”

Alhasen nodded, knowing that Lao Luo was talking about one aspect, so he didn't interrupt and waited for Lao Luo to continue.

"However, when it comes to faith, they are devout and fanatical, and to be honest, I was very touched when I saw the scene of the pilgrimage. But I'm worried...... "Lao Luo stopped, "Alhasen, do you know what I'm worried about?" ”

"Bartol, please say, there's no need to shy away, we're friends, aren't we?"

"My fear is that if these pious and fanatical people, with a good leader, then they will create a great nation; But what if it's a somewhat paranoid leader? Lao Luo reasoned as he spoke, "I'm afraid it will not only bring turmoil in the country, but also the ...... of war."

"Alas, Bartol, you have a point." "A few days ago, a friend of mine was executed by the Caliph just because he said that the country should reduce some unnecessary wars. ”

"Wouldn't it? Executed by the Caliph for exhortation? Lao Luo knows something about the current Caliph of the Fatimid Kingdom, who was a controversial figure in Fatimid history, and the hot-tempered caliph is said to have demolished many Christian churches and ostracized Christians and Jews.

"Yes, he was executed for a crime of not being a Muslim." Alhasan said with some frustration, but he is not a figure close to the political core, and this sense of powerlessness brings him not only sadness but also self-blame.

"My friend, you are not the decision-maker of this kingdom, and it is not your fault." Lao Luo saw it in his eyes, but he refused to pay any powerful attention, because mixing in the political affairs of this country means that he can't get rid of the involvement, not to mention that this is not a clan place where he has a sense of belonging.

"It's all right, my friend," said Alhasen, calming down, "Bartol, you are a passer-by, and you must not get involved in the affairs of the nobles. ”

"Thank you, friend." Lao Luo could feel the kindness of the other party, and he was also quite moved and said, "I understand, I am just a traveler, the Arab world is just one of the things I pass through, and I will not participate in the affairs of the locals." ”

"Haha, you're a traveler, it's not easy." Alhasan said with a smile, "Anything you can order is so incomprehensible, who would dare to say that you are just a traveler?" ”

"Alhasen, how many people like you are in your country? Who's to say I'm not a traveler? Lao Luo spread his hands and continued, "Look, what is standing in front of you is just a wanderer who wants to go home. ”

"Forget it, when I saw you just now, I thought it was a guard, no worse than the sturdiest warrior I've ever seen." Obviously, Alhasen also relaxed his mood and began to tease Lao Luo.

"There's no way, you don't have a strong body, but you can't go a long way." Lao Luo argued, "You must know that there are a lot of beasts along the way. ”

"I really envy you, you can see a lot of different people and things." People like Al Hasen are typical otaku types in later generations.

"You can too, why don't you come with me to my hometown?" Lao Luo began to fool Alhasen without scruples.

"Yes, forget it, don't talk about this, don't try to trick me." Alhasen decisively changed the subject, "Your theodolite, that's the name, right?" Can you ask me to come and see it when it's time to assemble it? ”

"Yes, of course." There is nothing to keep secret, what the two people said, few people in this era can understand it, even if you put it in front of those dignitaries and nobles, those people may only think that it is a very delicate thing.

Al-Hasan ibn al-Al al-Haitham was a very versatile scientist, and the subjects and disciplines he studied during his lifetime were also a mystery to later generations, because many of his writings were lost or destroyed in subsequent wars. And in this era, any of his studies may be worshipped, but no ruler has ever applied it.

Five hundred years later, during the Italian Renaissance, Leonardo da Vinci and Roger Bacon, and six hundred years later Kepler, were influenced by this Alleghansen's scholarship. Of course, Lao Luo at this time didn't know the specific specialty of the guy in front of him, and all he knew was that Alhasen was an optical expert.

But it was enough to make it worth Lao Luo's effort to turn him back to his hometown, anyway, the rulers of Arabia only knew how to expand their territory, and never reused his learning. The only thing worth considering is not to be in a hurry, and at this point, Lao Luo has plenty of patience.

Having received the expected result of the visit, and making a friend who could joke, and making an appointment with Lao Luo to have the opportunity to visit him, Alhasan went back to his residence in high spirits.

And Lao Luo was also very happy, although his initial purpose was a little not pure, but he did not deceive this simple, kind, and lacked emotional intelligence of the great scientist. Although he did not seek the wishes of the Arab people, and never thought of obtaining any permission from the caliphate, who told everyone here to just think of a great scientist as a mascot?

Lao Luo Xin said that the Arabs are too wasteful and extravagant, and such high-level talents do not know how to arrange them in the right position, but only place them in the palace of education and act as a symbolic symbol. This, this is really speechless.
