Chapter 169

"Deity, Yan was wrong."

He pressed his head to the ground and said slowly: "Three years ago, Yan was arrogant and ignorant, thinking he knew everything."

"If not for the deity's guidance and knocking, Yan probably wouldn't know the truth of heaven and earth even now."

His voice was sincere and gradually became steady.

In his eyes, the wise light of thirst for knowledge flickered.

"The first of the questions asked by the deity three years ago, Yan has already answered: the earth beneath our feet is a sphere!"

"As for the second question, what shape is the sky..."

Saying this.

He smiled bitterly: "Yan is ignorant and cannot know the answer."

The sky has always been a forbidden zone for humans.

Humans without wings cannot possibly explore the sky.

The only one who can know this answer is probably the deity.

"Creak—"

Suddenly.

After he finished speaking.

The door of the Divine Temple opened with a bang.

He was stunned at first.

Then he reacted and walked into the Divine Temple happily.

Just seeing above the shrine.

A line of text appeared: "My life has a limit, but knowledge has no limit."

The moment he saw this line of text.

Yan's body trembled.

These ten short characters seemed to speak to his heart.

Indeed.

Life has a limit, but knowledge has no limit!

And he before...

Was arrogant and thought he had exhausted the affairs of the human world.

Immediately after.

The text above the shrine changed again.

"Do you want to know the answer to the second question?"

Yan took a deep breath.

His expression suddenly became incredibly solemn.

He answered very seriously: "Yan, I want to know very much!"

Above the statue.

Qin Mu lowered his head, looking at Yan who was full of thirst for knowledge.

Smiled slightly.

Pondered slightly.

With a wave of his hand, a line of text appeared on the shrine again.

"Solve these three questions, and perhaps you will know the truth of the sky."

"Why does an apple fall to the ground instead of floating in the sky?"

"On a rainy day, why do you see lightning first and hear thunder later?"

"Drinking river water directly is easy to cause illness, but drinking boiled water does not?"

These three questions.

Are actually the most basic physics and biology questions.

But...

What Yan and the Great Yan Kingdom lack now is scientific knowledge in this area.

Under the statue.

Yan saw these three questions appearing on the shrine.

And fell into confusion again.

The deity's three questions, each one looked incredibly simple.

But the principles behind them...

He couldn't explain.

An apple falling is the most natural phenomenon.

But why does it fall?

On a rainy day, lightning first and thunder later is the most common sense.

But why isn't it thunder first and lightning later?

Raw water cannot be drunk easily, and drinking it will cause illness; the common people all know this.

But why is there no problem drinking boiled water?

"These three questions, each one is ordinary, contained in natural things, but they are incredibly profound..."

After leaving the Divine Temple.

Yan thought about these three questions all the way.

The more he thought, the more he felt they looked simple, but contained unimaginable philosophy.

"The deity said, if you understand these questions, perhaps you can know the truth of the sky..."

Yan muttered, his eyes becoming brighter.

After returning to the imperial palace.

He sat withered in front of the spherical map and pondered.

However...

He thought for a whole night but had no clue.

The more ordinary the question, the harder it is to find the clues.

Otherwise...

With the two hundred million population of the Great Yan Kingdom, they would have discovered the truth long ago.

"Right, one person's strength is short, many people's strength is long; I can mobilize people from the Ministry of Works to study together..."

Yan's eyes suddenly brightened.

Thought of a way.

The next day.

During the morning court.

Yan announced a new decree directly in front of all the civil and military officials.

"From today on, mobilize the skilled craftsmen of the Ministry of Works to establish the Great Yan Research Institute, specializing in natural research."

"The primary topic, why does an apple..."

Soon.

Under his powerful personal prestige, the decree was executed quickly.

The Great Yan Research Institute was established.

Not just the Ministry of Works, anyone in the country who is good at research and academics can enter.

And the current main topic of the Great Yan Research Institute...

Is the deity's three questions!

ps: Three big chapters today.

From now on, at least three big chapters every day; if the author writes fast, I will explode more.
