Chapter 1388: The Laws of Heaven and Earth and Nature

~7 min read 1,376 words

"Geography? Why call it that name? This is something displayed by the sky; shouldn't it be called 'Heavenly Logic'?" Fenghou felt puzzled by this.

This was the difference in the fundamental understanding of the same thing between the two sides. Fenghou was still in a state of nature worship regarding everything. Although Lu also existed within nature worship, Lu had also accepted Science education, which could be considered a perfect fusion of materialism and idealism.

"Heavenly Logic? We hadn't thought of that, but the lunar halo is still related to the Earth. It is just that the water vapor on the ground has drifted up into the sky, which is why such a lunar halo appears. Once a lunar halo appears, it means that in the next few days, it will either be windy or rainy.

As for Heavenly Logic, it probably refers to the sun, the stars, and such. The lunar halo is not yet that high up."

Fine, fine, fine. With such an explanation, it did have some logic, and it was the same as Fenghou's conclusion. Fenghou no longer dwelled on whether it was Heavenly Logic or Geography, but based on this result, he gave Xuanyuan a reminder.

"Tribal Chief, my result is the same as what General Lu said. In these next few days, there will definitely be strong winds and heavy rain. If the sky becomes overcast, it will be very suitable for the enemy to sneak over at night and launch a surprise attack on us. Therefore, we must be on high alert at night these next few days."

Lu had not thought of this point, but after hearing Fenghou say it, Lu also thought it was very possible: "That's right. They don't have much of a chance now. With the moon so bright at night, we can see whatever they do. But if it becomes overcast and the moonlight cannot shine down, then even if we have a Telescope, we won't be able to see clearly. So, we still need to pay more attention at night."

Xuanyuan naturally would not have any objections: "Good, no problem. It's like this tonight; there shouldn't be any major changes yet, right?

Starting from tomorrow, I will increase the number of people on duty at night. You Huaxia should also send out more people to observe together. If you Huaxia have any better methods, let's use them together."

Lu spread his hands: "What better methods could there be? Our best item is this Telescope. When the eyes can see, it just allows us to see a little further. When the eyes cannot see, it cannot see either."

Seeing that no more items were being brought out, Xuanyuan stopped pursuing the matter and instead showed his sincerity: "Our tribe has several Soldiers with better hearing. I will have them stand guard at night. If the eyes cannot hear, then we will use our ears to listen. If they want to attack, they must have enough manpower. Once there are many people, the movement naturally cannot be small."

"No problem. I will also have our Huaxia Soldiers with good hearing stand guard at night. Then let's leave it at that for tonight. I have already patrolled once; there are no problems. Shall we rest?"

Several people nodded. There seemed to be no need to further investigate this matter of the lunar halo, so Lu went directly to his own tent to prepare for rest.

Xuanyuan watched Lu walk away before he continued to look up, watching the lunar halo that had not changed at all, until his head felt dizzy and he lowered his head.

"Fenghou, do you think what Lu said is true? Is this lunar halo really just some water vapor? Why can I not see the water vapor, and how did they know?"

Fenghou shook his head in confusion: "I don't know. The Qi Observation Technique passed down by our ancestors does not say it is observing water vapor, because one can also observe human Qi, Earth Qi, and cloud Qi.

I have seen boiling water; it is indeed vapor, but it cannot give anyone any revelation because that is something burned by humans, not by the Heavenly Gods.

But just now, when Lu said it like that, it did indeed make sense, because the Qi surrounding the moon is exactly what foretells rain, and rain is also water.

Perhaps they have their own Qi Observation Technique and are just unwilling to say it clearly."

"Huaxia is always hiding everything and saying nothing. Can Xuanxiao really learn anything in Huaxia? Or will it just waste his time?" Xuanyuan sighed, then waved his hand to let Fenghou rest early; he was also going to rest now.

The next day, the sky was clear for ten thousand miles, the wind was gentle and the sun was bright. There was no wind and no rain, as if both Lu and Fenghou were wrong. However, both were very certain that they could not be wrong, because it only foretold that there would be wind and rain in the next few days, not that it would definitely happen the next day. If nothing unexpected happened, there would be a lunar halo again that night.

Sure enough, there was a lunar halo on the second night as well, and it was very obvious. This night, even Xuanyuan could not help but lie on the ground and start looking at the moon. He had never cared about the sky or the stars like this before.

Looking at the sky during the day, there was nothing to see; it was either clouds or the sun. The sun was too fierce; one would tear up upon looking at it. Everyone believed that the sun was also a Heavenly God, always shining on people and bringing warmth and vitality, but one could not look directly at it. Looking directly at a god was a sin, and the pain in the eyes was the punishment.

At night, the Heavenly Gods also had to rest, so the sun disappeared, and humans should also rest. Without the care of the Heavenly Gods, humans would be even more dangerous. Xuanyuan also believed in this theory; no matter how smart he was, he could not transcend the shackles of his era.

It was just that because of the discussion between Fenghou and Lu last night, he had more curiosity about the sky. Baifeng had been studying the laws of the moon and the sun in the sky, and he also had people studying them.

Now he felt even more that besides the larger things like the sun, moon, and stars, wind, rain, thunder, and lightning also seemed to have some laws, and it should be possible to find these laws. Moreover, Huaxia seemed to have already mastered these laws.

Fenghou was the same, but Fenghou attributed these laws to the revelations of the Heavenly Gods. Whether these laws were truly the revelations of the Heavenly Gods, or if Fenghou considered these "laws" to be the revelations of the Heavenly Gods, one person must be wrong. It was impossible for such a thing to exist simultaneously.

While observing, Xuanyuan saw many meteors. Every so often, he could see a star fly past, its speed either fast or slow. He did not understand why, since they were all stars, some remained motionless while others would fly in the sky. Could it be that stars also grew wings, and stars were also alive?

If stars were also alive, then they must be Heavenly Gods. The Heavenly Gods were busy traveling or going somewhere; otherwise, why could he not see any laws?

If he could see the laws, he would dare to say that the stars might not be Heavenly Gods. But because he could not see the laws, he could not reach that conclusion. The idea of searching for laws had already taken deep root in Xuanyuan's mind.

Since even the moon and the sun had laws, it was normal for other things to have laws. If he could find the laws and then master them, wouldn't the Xuanyuan Tribe surpassing Huaxia be a simple matter?

What could be more powerful than the laws of Heaven and Earth and Nature?
