Chapter 33 Li Jiting

(Thanks to the two hundred red envelopes of "Su's family", thanks to the reward of "I don't want to see the thief version", this chapter hopes you will look at it with an objective attitude, on the issue of Eastern and Western civilizations, interested people can go to see Fang Zhouzi's popular science article "Mr. Sai from the West", you will know a lot of things that history books will not teach you)

"You just mentioned Li Shanlan (Note 1), I do not deny that Li Shanlan's identity is a remarkable achievement, and it should be said that it is not easy for him to arrive at such an achievement in the traditional way. But I think you should know Li Shanlan's Qing Dynasty people in the 18th century, you are looking at Euler, Lagrange, Legend, Gauss, Cauchy, Jacobi, from the 17th century to the 18th century, how far these people have developed mathematics in Europe? Do you need to say more? This gap is the gap between primary school students and graduate students! I don't know as much about Chinese history as you think, and I also admire those who can do research in ancient China, but to be honest, the oriental civilization was almost abolished by Confucian culture.....

"Cheng Mo, how did I find out that you have no national pride? Since you know the history of China, you should know that before the 17th and 18th centuries, China's technology was at the leading level in the world. What was there in Europe at that time? Bacon said that there were three technologies that brought Europe out of the Dark Ages: gunpowder, the compass, and paper and printing..... All these three items have been passed down from our Chinese civilization, and without our Chinese civilization, would there be the current world civilization?"

"Senior sister, please don't be so excited, I don't deny the contribution of the Eastern civilization to the world, but what we are discussing now is not this issue, what we are discussing is: If there is no Western civilization, what would the Eastern civilization become! There is no doubt about this, without the Western civilization, you may be wrapping your little feet and preparing to get married, and I can be holding a hoe and preparing to join the peasant rebellion..... If capitalism could not have been produced in China, the industrial revolution would not have broken out, and even from the beginning to the end, there was no science in China, only technology, let alone any science and technology trees...... Assuming that there is no Western civilization on the earth, or other more advanced civilizations, and our Eastern civilization is the most advanced, then there is no doubt that this world will stagnate in a dark feudal society for a long time....."

"I THINK YOU HAVE ALSO READ THE "SCIENCE AND CIVILISATION IN CHIAN" EDITED BY STEPHEN NEEDHAM (China NOTE 2), AND INDEED ACCORDING TO THE ASSUMPTION, WE CAN PLAY FEUDALISM IN CHINA FOR A FEW HUNDRED YEARS, BUT THE PROBABILITY OF A EUCLIDEAN AND A GALILEO IN A FEW HUNDRED YEARS IS STILL VERY HIGH, RIGHT?"

Cheng Mo shook his head, "Einstein thought that the emergence of science was an extremely coincidental thing, and this is his original words: 'The origin of science is a very unusual event, so there is no need to be surprised that science did not appear in ancient China, it is surprising that the West will actually develop science.'" After a pause, Cheng Mo continued: "You also know that the development of Western science is based on two great achievements: the Greek philosophers invented the system of formal logic in Euclidean geometry, and the Renaissance discovered that it was possible to find out causal relationships through systematic experiments. No other civilization has seen an Euclidean axiomatic masterpiece in 2,000 years since Euclidean, and in the more than 2,000 years before Galileo, there was no second pioneer of experimental science, including in Europe. It doesn't matter if it's an unborn genius, or if it's the course of history. After all, it takes millennia to meet these two conditions. This is still Europe, the development mode of Europe is spiraling, and the development of our China is a cycle of discontinuity, just a compass has been lost eight times, and then it has been invented eight times......"

Xie Minyun interrupted Cheng Mo's words and said coldly: "Yes, the emergence of science and technology requires those two kindlings, and ancient China really has no science, just random skills, but the Qing Dynasty is already the peak of the feudal system, and the Qing Dynasty has completely broken the backbone of Han culture, so as long as the next dynasty is a Han dynasty, it will definitely be able to reshape the Han civilization." Looking back on history, from the fall of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the rise of metaphysics in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, our Han culture has been reflecting on where the problems of Confucianism are, and then the fall of the Tang Dynasty and the integration of the three religions in the Song Dynasty, which is also the self-correction of Han culture. Song died in the Yuan Dynasty, after a catastrophe, the first thing Zhu Yuanzhang did was to restore the Han family's clothes, Cheng Zhu Lixue became a prominent study, and then the study of the mind appeared, the unity of knowledge and action was proposed, and the rule of the king was also proposed. Throughout history, the content of Confucianism is different in each dynasty, and every time there is a change of dynasty, Confucianism will be reshaped.

Cheng Mo was about to speak, when there was a crisp knock at the door, "Yo! What are you arguing about?

Cheng Mo, who was sitting on the bed, turned his head, and Xie Minyun, who was sitting on the chair, turned around and saw Li Jiting wearing a blue suit and having long hair as an artist.

Xie Minyun and Li Jiting were very surprised when they saw each other, and said in unison: "Uncle Li!"

"Xiaojin!"

Li Jiting looked at Xie Minyun, then at Cheng Mo, and pointed at Cheng Mo with his finger, "I said why did you come to Europe and didn't greet me, and you came to me if something happened..... I see!"

Cheng Mo not only admired Li Jiting's acting skills, but even he couldn't see any flaws, and was surprised that Li Jiting actually knew Xie Minyun, and it seemed that he was still very familiar.

Xie Minyun didn't expect to meet an acquaintance in this situation, or an elder who had a good relationship with his parents, and his face was flushed with a faint flush again, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

Li Jiting walked towards the ward and asked, "You two are classmates?"

Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun said in unison: "Alumni." ”

Li Jiting looked at the two people who had a tacit understanding, and said with a joking face: "I said Xiaojin, it's not your style to participate in the summer camp! You are a drunkard.....

"Uncle Li, how long have we not seen each other?" Xie Minyun knew that Li Jiting had always liked to joke, and he belonged to the kind of person who dared to make any joke, and he didn't care about being polite or impolite, so he immediately interrupted Li Jiting's explosive ridicule, anyway, this Uncle Li has never been right in front of her.

"It wasn't long, right? I remember seeing it in the capital during the Chinese New Year..... Your mother actually allowed you to come out and play alone, it's really rare!" Li Jiting saw that Xie Minyun was thin-skinned, so he stopped at the point.

"It's not a ..... alone," Mr. Xie said.

Li Jiting nodded, he knew that there must be bodyguards near Xie Minyun in an invisible place, so he smiled and said, "Let's go! Uncle Li invites the two of you to have morning tea..."

"You still have to wait for our team leader Zhang to come over and explain to her, right?" Cheng Mo said hesitantly.

"I'll just make a phone call, you tell me the phone number of your travel agency....." Li Jiting waved his hand and said casually.

"Cheng Mo, aren't you going to go back today?" Seeing that the situation is not right, Xie Minyun asked suspiciously.

Cheng Mo let out a soft "um".

Li Jiting looked at Xie Minyun and said with a smile: "What are you going to do when you finally come to Europe?" I'll take you to have a good time, Xiaojin, don't go back." ”

Xie Minyun replied in a low voice: "I..... I still have to go back today....." She didn't make it last night, so she was told by her mother, if she doesn't go back today, she will definitely become less and less free in the future.

"It's okay, where is your mother, I told her, she wants to know that I will take you to play, and I promise that I will only be happy and will not refuse....." Li Jiting winked at Xie Minyun.

"I'm not afraid that my mom won't agree, I just think ..... There's nothing fun in Europe...."Xie Minyun hurriedly denied that he didn't want to stay because of his mother.

"Xiaojin, you still don't believe your Uncle Li, with me, an old driver, to play with you, I guarantee that it will be different!" Li Jiting continued to instigate.

Xie Minyun looked at Cheng Mo, who was speechless, and said after a moment's struggle: "Forget it." ”

Li Jiting knew that Xie Minyun couldn't pull his head, so he waved his hand, "Okay, okay! Don't be verbose, Xiao Jin will go with Uncle Li, and I will call your mother right away.... And Cheng Mo, get dressed, we're gone...."

Cheng Mo let out an "oh", lifted the quilt, and ripped off the electrodes attached to his body, Xie Minyun saw that Cheng Mo was naked, his skin was fair, his bones were skinny, and the ribs on his body were clearly visible, so he immediately turned his head, "I'll go to the bathroom....."

Seeing Xie Minyun walking out of the ward, Li Jiting slapped Cheng Mo's shoulder and said, "Boy, don't talk about it, you pickled girl and dumped your father a few streets! Xie Minyun, this girl is famously proud, and she actually guarded you in the hospital all night..... There is a future, it seems that the mantle of my love saint can be handed over to you with confidence....."

Cheng Mo said helplessly: "You think too much, she just owes me some favors, so I just took the opportunity to replace it! In addition, Uncle Li, didn't you say that we have to do a mission in Europe? It's not convenient to bring your senior sister, right?"

Li Jiting smiled "hehe": "Your task is to soak Xie Minyun ....."

Cheng Mo's face suddenly fell, "Uncle Li, if that's the case, I might as well study it myself, and I don't need you to teach me." ”

"You kid, men and women don't get tired of working together, you still don't understand such a simple truth? Zero Zero-Seven still needs the assistance of the Bang girl when he performs the task! Not to mention that you are still a rookie....." Li Jiting rolled his eyes and said solemnly.

"But.... Senpai can't help much, can she?

"This is also a kind of exercise for you, you said that you can't even hide Xiao Jin, how can you survive in the world full of traps and deceit?

"There's nothing bad about it, but it's just because everything is good, and the good ones are a bit too .....much."

Li Jiting put his arm around the shoulders of Cheng Mo, who was already dressed, "Okay, okay, as your mentor, I will guide you on the path of the Chosen One, as your father's friend, I will teach you how to take the road of life, why don't you fall in love at the age of youth..... Don't worry about heart disease, I'll get you a medicine then... Promise you're okay...."

Hearing Li Jiting's words, Cheng Mo's face darkened, and he shook off Li Jiting's hand, "Uncle Li, I'm going to be angry if you say this kind of thing again!"

"Hey, I'll help you get heart-protecting medicine, so that you can run, play badminton, exercise or something? Do you blame me? It's really kind to treat it as a donkey's liver and lungs..... Don't forget it!" Li Jiting immediately said with an aggrieved expression and an exaggerated expression.

Cheng Mo bit his lip, if there was really this kind of medicine, the temptation for him would be too great, so he could only say helplessly: "Uncle Li, I'll buy it with bitcoin." ”

"Do you think our old man can be bought with just a few bitcoins?"

"Uncle Li, I'm sorry.... I want this medicine. ”

"Say it louder. ”

"Uncle Li, I'm sorry, I want this medicine!" Cheng Mo could only amplify the volume.

"Call Master!!"

"Master, I'm sorry, I want this medicine!" Cheng Mo almost couldn't hold back and was about to roar, if it wasn't in the hospital, it would still be morning.

"Okay! Remember that everything is subject to the arrangement of the teacher....." Li Jiting said with satisfaction with his hands behind his back, looking like a villain.

Cheng was speechless, and he didn't know why Li Jiting looked so literary and artistic, and such a well-cultivated uncle was actually an old naughty boy-like figure, maybe his mentality was too young! In fact, he looked very young on the outside, and he looked like he was in his thirties.

As soon as Li Jiting's words fell, Xie Minyun walked over from the corridor and asked, "Cheng Mo, what did you just say?"

"Quick-acting heart pills...."The corners of Cheng Mo's mouth twitched, and he said expressionlessly.

Xie Minyun was a little strange, she remembered that Cheng Mo's small backpack had a "quick-acting heart-saving pill" in it yesterday, why did she still need it? But she didn't ask too much, and followed Li Jiting towards the nurse's table.
