However, it was said that Yang Yifei returned to the team and told Meng Yi about the meteorite, and Meng Yi immediately decided to divide the troops into two ways.

Yang Yifei led a team of people with a carriage and some silk silk to the place where the meteorite was located and tried to transport it back to Xianyang, while he himself led a large group of men and horses to escort Yushu back to Xianyang.

Yang Yifei took the order, and when he returned to the meteorite with the silk silk, basically everyone went down to the pit to see it, and all of them had joy on their faces, obviously they also saw the words engraved on the meteorite.

The soldiers were very sure that they only heard a few knocking sounds, which were the movements of Yang Yifei smashing down two pieces of meteorite, and did not hear the sound of chiseling.

This proves that the words on the meteorite were definitely not engraved by Yang Yifei, and he didn't have enough time to go down to chisel those words.

They never dreamed that it was because Yang Yifei had an indestructible dark iron dagger, and he easily carved those words on the meteorite, and there was no need to use a chisel at all.

Since it was not engraved by Yang Yifei, it means that those words were originally there, whether it was the will of God or someone else had engraved them in advance, which was a great good thing for Daqin and His Majesty.

Someone asked Yang Yifei if he carved it, and he also insisted that he already had those words when he went down.

In this way, the soldiers are even more worried, saying that they have to get this meteorite back, even if it can make their majesty happy, then they are very willing to do it.

Yang Yifei immediately led the soldiers to work, and he asked everyone to unfold the silk silk one by one, and then connected it into a large piece that was large enough to cover the entire crater, boxy, and thickly stacked several layers.

Then let the soldiers pinch the edge, walk over from both sides of the crater, and cover the crater with silk silks.

When the silk silk completely covered the crater, the soil that was originally floating in the sky fell down cracklingly, smashing the silk silk down the crater, which means that the rays emitted by the meteorite have been completely blocked.

The next thing is to go down to the crater, put the silk cloth in the middle, and finally turn the meteorite so that it is tightly encased, and then pull it out of the crater with a rope.

Because of the carrying of the meteorite, Yang Yifei and his entourage returned to Xianyang three days later than Meng Yi, and the first emperor had already received a report from Meng Yi, knowing that the meteorite that fell from the sky some time ago, and the meteorite that landed as a stone would be transported back by Yang Yifei, so he ordered it to go down early, and as soon as the meteorite arrived, it was immediately sent to the palace.

Yang Yifei transported the meteorite to the Xianyang Palace according to the requirements of the First Emperor, and the First Emperor immediately took a group of ministers out of the main hall and went to the square in front of the palace to see what words were on the meteorite.

Because Yang Yifei wanted to surprise the first emperor, he deliberately only told Meng Yi that there were words on the meteorite, but he didn't say what the words were.

Yang Yifei said to the First Emperor: "Your Majesty, this stone is quite miraculous, if there is nothing to cover it, it will make the power of the earth disappear, making people fly up, and the general still needs to make some preparations." ”

The First Emperor said happily, "General Yang, even though you are ready, be ready to tell me." ”

"Yui."

……

Regarding the fact that the earth has the power to suck, Meng Yi has already told the First Emperor to hear it, and also explained to him the principle of the meteorite falling to the ground, and after the First Emperor heard it, he suddenly became enlightened.

Originally, he had always subconsciously thought that the meteorite falling to the ground was a sign from heaven that he was about to fall, coupled with the previous confusion and guarding, which made him depressed for a while, and it was difficult to sleep and eat.

But after listening to Meng Yi's explanation of Yang Yifei's explanation that the earth has the power to suck, he was suddenly in a good mood, he could eat, and he slept peacefully.

It turns out that this meteorite fell for a reason, and it is possible for this to happen at any time, maybe in a place where they can't see, it happens at any time, and it is not a sign of anything.

He had no reason to doubt this, because no matter what he thought, what Yang Yifei said was reasonable and reasonable, and he couldn't even find any point to refute.

Therefore, after Meng Yi retreated, the First Emperor summoned a group of officials from Taishi Ling and Qin Tianjian and asked everyone: "I ask Zhongqing a question, if anyone can answer it, I will be rewarded." ”

Taishi ordered the chief official Taishi to say: "The ministers respectfully ask Your Majesty to ask questions." ”

The First Emperor said: "Some time ago, there was a meteorite in the East County, and you already know it, who can tell me why this meteorite fell to the earth?" ”

"This ......" The officials looked at each other, they only knew that a meteorite fell from the sky, and there must be a sign from heaven, where did they know why this meteorite fell? If you don't answer this question well, you'll lose your head.

Seeing that the ministers couldn't answer, a trace of triumph flashed on the face of the First Emperor, and a sense of superiority over the courtiers in terms of knowledge arose.

"This question is indeed difficult to answer, so if I ask another question, do you know why everything in the world falls to the earth instead of flying to the sky?"

This question made the ministers confused, isn't it common sense that all things fall to the ground? His Majesty specifically asked, I don't know what the purpose is.

Taishi said cautiously: "Returning to Your Majesty, there is a distinction between the top and the bottom in the world, and everything falls from the top, which has been the same since ancient times, which is the principle of heaven and earth." ”

The First Emperor asked, "Why is there such a reason?" ”

"This ......" is too difficult for history, and the ministers are also silent, with their cognition, where can they answer this question?

"Hahahaha......" The First Emperor laughed out loud, stretched out his finger and pointed at the ministers, and said: "You know what it is, but you don't know why, today I will inform you and others, so that you and others can know why this is reasonable." ”

The ministers hurriedly bowed and said, "Please give your majesty a warning, and the ministers will listen to you." ”

The First Emperor rose up freely, paced slowly in the hall, and relayed what Meng Yi relayed, Yang Yifei's "Earth Suction Theory", and finally said: "This is what a general in my Great Qin Army said, do you think so?" ”

After listening to the words of the First Emperor, Taishi ordered the officials to be shocked by the person who put forward this theory, and this statement is absolutely tenable.

Tai Shi Ling is responsible for drafting documents, recording historical events, compiling historical books, and taking charge of national classics, astronomical calendars, sacrifices, etc.

Qin Tianjian is a department under Taishi Ling, in a sense, it can also be regarded as scientific, they are responsible for observing celestial phenomena, calculating solar terms, formulating calendars and other duties.

Isn't that an expert in astronomy and meteorology? Although their research is still very primitive and not even a beginner, they are always people who are engaged in this kind of learning.

So as soon as they heard this theory, they immediately understood that it was not nonsense, but a fact, because none of them could explain why everything always fell from the top and did not fly to the sky.

The saying that the earth has a kind of pulling power gave them the answer, and even some officials got carried away and jumped thoughtfully on top of the main hall, and finally their faces showed a sudden look.

The First Emperor was not annoyed by the behavior of these officials, because even they agreed with this statement, which proved that what Yang Yifei said was a new heaven and earth principle and was absolutely correct.

Taishi bowed in admiration and said: "This general is really a genius through the ages, this statement has a great revelation to the ministers to study the truth of heaven and earth, enough to go down in history, and please give your majesty the name of this general, and the ministers are willing to worship this general as a teacher." ”

Looking at the gray beard of Taishi, the first emperor smiled dumbly, naturally did not agree to this, his general still has to train the army for him, guard the country, and then expand the territory, and be a teacher for you old guys, isn't it useless?

It can also be seen that the ancient kings did not attach importance to scientific research, and Taishi was still a minister in the middle of the court in the Spring and Autumn Period, and his status gradually declined since the Qin period.

However, after this incident, the First Emperor paid more and more attention to Yang Yifei, and it was a great achievement to solve the problem in his heart alone.
