"Along the way, I have seen the exquisite and wonderful tricks in this treasure house that are in harmony with the power of nature, and I have deeply realized the principle of attacking the heart and things, and finally met Master Lu."

Knowing that he had suddenly broken into Yang Gong's treasure house, it was difficult not to arouse the other party's vigilance, and Zhao Qing was not dissatisfied with Lu Miaozi's manipulation of the mechanism to cast an attack, but just glanced faintly at the core of the real library behind the main hub room, and sensed that there was a copper pot hidden in it.

When he found that the ultrasonic waves he had excited were transmitted to the inside of the copper jar, it was revealed that there was a very dense liquid stored in it, and if it was correct, the jar should have contained a large amount of mercury, and the mercury contained the evil emperor relics.

And near the copper jar containing the relics of the Evil Emperor, the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi faintly merged with a small area of human form, undoubtedly hiding a peerless master who was the unity of heaven and man and cultivated the method of invisibility, and it was most likely Xiang Yutian himself.

"The heart has a mind, and things have a thing. The study of tricks and tools needs to summarize the natural principles of heaven and earth, all-encompassing, and all-inclusive, so that we can truly enter the room and get a glimpse of its deeper mysteries. ”

Hearing Zhao Qing's evaluation of the Yang Gong Treasury she had built, Lu Miaozi replied heartily, and at the same time felt a shock in her heart, feeling that although it was only the first time she met the other party, judging from the essence of her words pointing to ingenuity, she could undoubtedly become her confidant in this regard.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but regret it a little, just now without asking the reason, he manipulated the central winch to trigger a number of lethal mechanisms in the fake library, if it weren't for Zhao Qing's amazing strength, he almost hurt the other party, and gave birth to intractable contradictions with each other.

This is undoubtedly a reckless move, reflecting that he has unconsciously lost the mentality of his youth, and in the face of strangers who have cracked his own mechanism, he no longer has the curiosity and the idea of trying to communicate and improve each other, but kills because of the possibility of encountering danger.

Is this change in mind due to the influence of demonic energy?

However, the other party actually happened to be the Zhao Qing I talked to Lao Xiang about not long ago, suspected of the existence of evil spirits, and it just happened to be in line with Xie Wei's characteristics of frequent tomb robberies and good at the study of organs, although she seemed to have a friendly attitude, but it was not ruled out that she would bring great danger.

……

It can be seen that Lu Miaozi has summarized many principles based on the study of mechanical tools, Zhao Qing thought about it in his heart, and felt that the other party was indeed worthy of his name as the world's first craftsman, and he was close to the point of developing science.

For example, the Yang Gong Treasure House connects the tunnels inside and outside the city, and uses a rail train driven by a combination of hydraulic power and gear noose, so as to transport a large number of gold weapons in the treasure house, although the vehicle is quite slow, but the concept is quite advanced.

"Through endless exploration and practice, we will discover the laws contained in the nature of heaven and earth and all things, so as to establish a systematic system of division and classification. In my opinion, it is by no means simply a 'study of tricks', but something much more important, which can be called 'science'. ”

After a brief introduction to the concept of science, her mind moved slightly, and she pointed to the stone wall on the side, and immediately a grain of crystal light flew out and landed on the stone wall, forming a large area of color graphics and text on its surface.

In an instant, the originally rough and gray granite stone wall became smooth and shiny, and the subtle traces carved by countless rays of light can present a three-dimensional form when observed from a specific angle, which is the result of Zhao Qing's further research on optical imaging and spiritual materialization.

"This is part of the basic theory called 'physics' in the branch of science that I know, and you can take a look at it and try to understand the implications."

"Principles of Mechanics?"

Seeing this magical scene, Lu Miaozi, who had heard about the vision outside Liyang City, was not too surprised, but turned his head to look at the content displayed on this wall, and saw Newton's three laws, the law of moment equilibrium, the law of elasticity, etc., including the phenomena involved in them, and the process of deriving them.

"These scientific theories, when applied to natural things, really can't find any counter-examples, considering factors such as air resistance as defined by you. But when it comes to martial arts, it doesn't seem to necessarily match exactly. ”

Although he was still a little vigilant, as soon as Lu Miaozi immersed himself in it, he completely forgot about it, and soon half an hour passed, pondering for a long time, and suddenly asked:

"For example, if I release a true qi that is strong enough to propel a thousand catties of heavy objects forward, according to your theory, it should also give myself a thousand catties of reaction force. But in fact, this force does not exist, and why? ”

In such a short period of time, he basically understood the mechanical theory provided by Zhao Qing, and found the doubts that did not conform to it, which shows that Lu Miaozi's wisdom level is indeed one of the top people in the world, and he can be called an all-round genius.

This phenomenon of emitting true qi but no reaction force actually involves quite complex principles, which is the fundamental reason why Zhao Qing's cultivation has reached such a state, and the force that can be released has reached the level of millions of catties, but it is still difficult to achieve free flight.

It is precisely because there are a lot of things that seem to be contrary to science in the practice that the wisdom of the practitioner is developed, and it is generally higher than that of ordinary people, but it is difficult to summarize the systematic theories smoothly as in the previous life, and the development of civilization will even become slower.

"Mr. Lu, you should know about the phenomenon of firewood burning and exothermy, gunpowder explosion, etc., right? There are also Taoist priests who refine pills and medicines, and the properties of medicinal materials often change completely differently from before. Behind these events, there are naturally their principles. ”

Glancing at the other party with appreciation, Zhao Qing nodded and explained: "Unlike physics, which describes mechanics, this kind of change that does not involve the transmission of force, but generates or absorbs additional energy, is called 'chemistry' in my case......"

"According to my speculation, most of the True Qi is a special gas that travels in the form of longitudinal waves, and can be controlled by spiritual forces, releasing the energy contained in it like a chemical reaction, thus generating additional force......

"If we look into the origin of true qi, we have to mention the concept of 'refining and refining qi'. As we all know, in the acquired realm, the source of the internal force of true qi is generally the pulse qi transformed from the food eaten. And the process of human digestion of food is a chemical reaction......"

"Although it is not yet possible to understand the detailed mechanism of the storage and release of energy of true qi, and it is likely that it involves more subtle microscopic changes than 'chemistry', for the time being, it can be regarded as a large category in the 'chemical' system and explore the principles of its influence on other things."

From a microscopic point of view, the formation and consumption of the internal force of true qi, which is composed of the complex structure of yin and yang qi, can be regarded as the basic unit of various yuan qi, and the formation and fracture of its "yuan qi bonds" are quite similar to chemical changes.

Among them, the "true qi" is a complex meta-gas chemical structure, and its physical properties are equivalent to that of a very light gas; The "internal force" is the "chemical energy of the Yuan Qi" contained in the true qi. The two are two similar, but slightly different, definitions that need to be distinguished when describing them scientifically.

Of course, this does not mean that "Yuan Qi" is regarded as a molecular atom in a previous life, but only temporarily used as a reference when describing the internal force of True Qi, and the real martial arts system is undoubtedly much more complicated;

It is not only necessary to create the corresponding "chemistry", but also involves a large number of theories such as fluid mechanics, quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics, etc., combined with the transformation of yin and yang, and other Taoist ideas, to explore the mysterious consciousness and spirit, which can be fully described.

In fact, in order to integrate martial arts into the scientific system, a new discipline that needs to be established should include "true qi chemistry" similar to the chemical level, "micro yuan qi science" similar to the micro physical level, and "macro yuan qi science" to study macro yuan qi phenomena, and so on.

……

"You mean, the effect of the internal force of True Qi is similar to throwing and detonating a thunderbolt with gunpowder inside, and the power released is derived from the chemical reaction of gunpowder, and there is no direct correlation with the person who threw it?"

Lu Miaozi's eyes flashed, obviously aware of the truth contained in this, and discovered the significance of chemistry, a discipline no less than physics, and was amazed.

"It's like, but it should be a little more complicated."

Knowing that Lu Miaozi is best at tricks and tools, and is more inclined to physics, Zhao Qing did not explain in detail, but opened his mouth to invite: "This stone carving with part of the principles of mechanics is a special gift for Mr. Lu to visit. ”

"If Master Lu is willing to delve into more in-depth content, explore physics, chemistry, biology and other fields, and discover the mysteries contained in martial arts practice, you might as well join the research institute I opened and make progress together with other skilled craftsmen."

Speaking of this, she casually took out two letters, threw them flat in the direction of Lu Miaozi, and then said: "These two letters are written by Lei Jiuzhi, who you taught for half a year many years ago, and your niece Shi Qingxuan, representing the sincere greetings of the two of them. ”

"Thunder Nine Fingers? Qing Xuan? Lu Miaozi's heart was shocked, and the child who had stubbornly studied behind him for twenty years came to mind, and Xiao Qingxuan, who inherited Bixiuxin's character and Xiao Yi, reached out to take the two letters, and couldn't help but smile with joy.

Seeing that Zhao Qing's invitation was indeed quite sincere, Lu Miaozi secretly thought in her heart, although she couldn't tell whether the other party was a so-called evil spirit, but since Xiang Yutian had been hiding on the side for a while, she had not launched an attack, it should have ruled out her suspicion, right?

After pondering for a moment, he nodded and replied: "Miss Zhao's words made me feel like I saw the blue sky through the clouds and mist. I don't seem to have any reason to refuse just to explore and pursue the mysteries of 'science'. ”

"But, girl, you're the leader of the biggest force in the South. I wonder how I will be treated if I join what you call 'scientific research'? What exactly is going to be done, is it related to the development of ordnance for use in war? ”

Hearing a series of questions raised by Lu Miaozi, Zhao Qing smiled slightly and replied: "In my opinion, a real skilled craftsman who has created a technology that benefits the country and the people, or summed up a new scientific theory, is in no way inferior to the famous ministers and ministers who have always been respected. ”

"If you can join our cause, the treatment you can get is closely related to the development of science and technology, and the level of it is measured according to the contribution made, and there are commendations and honors specifically for scientific innovation."

"For example, at present, according to my regulations, every other year, a major award will be awarded, which is in some way linked to the Heshi Bi I have in hand, and its highest honor is called the 'Heshi Bi Award'."

"'He's Bi Award'?" This time, it was no longer Lu Miaozi who was nearby, but Xiang Yutian, who moved from the core area of the real library in the inner part to the main hub room in an instant, slowly revealing his physiognomy.

Obviously having been listening to it for a while, he turned around and looked at the "Principles of Mechanics" engraved on the stone wall for a while, then turned his eyes on Zhao Qing's body, and asked lightly: "I am Xiang Yutian, the thirteenth generation of the evil emperor of the Holy Gate, and I am an old friend of Lu Miaozi for many years. ”

"Miss Zhao Qing, it turns out that after I put He's Bi in Luoyang, it ended up in your hands, not by the people in the Buddhist sect. At present, you can create this system called 'science', and the region under your rule is too safe and healthy, and you are indeed worthy of this eternal treasure. ”

"But what is the meaning of the 'He's Bi Award' you set up, and how is it related to He's Bi?"

Through the magical induction of the demon seed, Xiang Yutian basically confirmed that what Zhao Qing said was the truth, and judged that the other party was very likely to be the person who interfered with him when he visited the tomb, ruling out the suspicion that she was pretending to be an evil spirit.

Listening to it, he was a little dissatisfied with Zhao Qing's "indirect" release of evil spirits, but he was deeply interested in the "scientific" theory she introduced.

"Considering that it has to be related to craftsmen and science, I originally wanted to set up a 'Mozi Award', but as we all know, Mozi is actually the ancestor of your 'Heavenly Evil Dao' in a certain sense, and it is not easy to act as a substitute."

Looking at Xiang Yutian, whose breath was deep and unfathomable, Zhao Qing explained lightly: "The discovery and carving process of He's Bi, it has become a treasure that represents the mandate of heaven and imperial power from the beginning, and we have learned the mystery of the natural principles of heaven and earth step by step, and have studied the various forces that control all things, which can faintly correspond to each other. ”

"Therefore, I am ready to use the resounding name of 'He's Bi' to set up a number of awards, including the science category and the martial arts category. Among them, martial arts is divided into five aspects: theory, internal strength, moves, body methods, and spirit, while science is divided into theory, machinery, agriculture, medicine, and materials. ”

"Outstanding contributions in the corresponding field are the only conditions for the competition for the 'Heshi Bi Award', and the winner will receive sufficient martial arts resources and worldly wealth, equal in status to a high-grade official position, and can receive further support in his field of study."

The reason why it is not classified according to disciplines is because in the current initial stage, Zhao Qing attaches more importance to the practical significance of scientific research, except for two separate theoretical awards, the others are practical fields.

If an individual develops a medical practice with high applicability and a low threshold for practice, then he will be able to compete for both internal and medical awards at the same time, and may win them together.

"So, after Xiao Lu joins your subordinate 'research institute', he will have to wait for a while before he can get the treatment of a high-ranking official?" Xiang Yutian's eyes flashed with purple light, and he suddenly stretched out his arm and patted Lu Miaozi's shoulder, and encouraged him repeatedly:

"Are you confident that you will win this 'Heshi Bi Award'? Whether or not you can become a grandmaster-level figure in scientific research with my full help, and strive to set up a 'Mozi Award' for my 'Heavenly Evil Dao', depends on Xiaolu's ability! ”

"Hehe, you are the heir of the Mo family, and I am the descendant of Lu Ban, why do you want to help you get a 'Mozi Award'?" Lu Miaozi glared at Yutian with disdain, and immediately retorted.

The first evil emperor Xie Wei, who is respected as the ancestor of the Demon Gate, originally belonged to a cynical school in the Mo family, and was good at the art of organs, and engaged in the tomb robbery industry based on the theory of "festival burial", and also dabbled in other schools of thought.

Therefore, his descendants inherit the "Heavenly Evil Dao", and can also be regarded as the successor of the Mo family, with a large number of classics inherited by the Mo family, but generations of evil emperors are basically immersed in the study of the "Dao Heart Demon Cultivation Dafa", few people participate in world affairs, and there is not much research on the mechanism technique.

is very different from the evil emperors of previous dynasties, Xiang Yutian, who was born in the secret clan, is full of very imaginable and strange thoughts, and he is full of interest in hunting and exploring things that ordinary people don't pay attention to, and he will pull from one topic to another topic that has nothing to do with the previous one at any time.

In the process of cultivating the Dao Heart Demon Cultivation Dafa, he made friends with interesting people such as Lu Miaozi, and after hearing that Zhao Qing had unveiled a new realm, his heart couldn't help but be full of thoughts of exploration and research.
