The World of Deities - Chapter 648
The incarnation of the god of medicine came and shocked the world.
The popularity of Su Ye and Euclid surpassed the day of the war ceremony.
Countless Greeks are feeling that Su Ye and Euclid first saved Greece and then Athens.
As for the matter of the Temple of Vengeance, as for the death of Leona the Grand Adjudicator, it became an insignificant little wave in the Aegean Sea, fluttering a few times and disappearing.
Euclid’s funeral was held in Yagang.
It was dark and bright, and the first group of people left their homes and went to Yagang.
These people are the Athenians and their families who have been tortured by the epidemic. There are thousands of them.
Not long after, another group of people also went there, because they all knew that Su Ye and Euclid were good friends, and Su Ye would definitely attend Euclid’s funeral.
In the end, many Athenians successively went to the port.
A light brown wooden podium was erected on the beach of Yagang, facing the Aegean Sea.
In front of the wooden podium, wooden chairs made temporarily by magic are densely arranged.
The wooden chairs were filled with teachers and students from Plato Academy, magicians from all walks of life, and a handful of nobles.
And most people are standing more than ten meters away, full of beaches and roads.
More than 100,000 people can almost fill the entire dumb harbor.
The provost of the Plato Academy, Larence, personally presided over the funeral.
At the end of the funeral, Larence announced: “At the end of the funeral, please ask Euclid’s friend Aristotle to come forward and recite a sacrificial text.”
Aristotle was covered in a turmoil like a nest He walked on the podium with his hair, his face was gray, the bird’s nest was sunken, and the bloodshot eyes formed two big nets in his eyes.
He stood in front of the podium and stayed for a long time before reaching out his hand blankly to touch his ring of space.
After a while, he raised his head, looked at the teachers and students of Plato College in front of him, and looked at the crowd of tens of thousands of black people, before he suddenly realized.
Wearing a magic beard, Aristotle took out a few sheets of white paper, laid them on the podium, and pressed them with magical power.
The sea breeze in Yagang passed by, making his hair like a chaotic forest in the wind.
He stretched out his hand and gently stroked the white paper, then turned his head and looked at the deep blue Aegean Sea and the dim sky under the sun.
He turned his head and glanced at the sacrifice text in front of him.
When he saw it the first time, he had already remembered with his unforgettable talent.
Watched it over and over again last night.
Aristotle took a deep breath, raised his head, and scanned the front.
He saw that the eyes of the students of Plato College were red, especially some girls, whose eyes were swollen into peaches.
Aristotle opened his mouth, but said nothing. He tried several times before making a sound.
“I don’t want to attend this funeral, because I believe Euclid is still alive.”
He paused, and suddenly there was a cry of cry from the audience.
There are Euclid’s students, his classmates, and his friends.
Aristotle’s eyes flushed instantly.
He waited quietly, waiting for the sea breeze to fade away, before continuing to speak.
“A friend gave me this sacrificial essay before leaving Athens. He said that he wanted me to preside over Euclid’s funeral for him. I don’t want to preside, but I should recite this article for him. Below. “I” refers to my mutual friend with Euclid, a 17-year-old boy who had to leave Athens, Su Ye.”
Countless magicians gritted their teeth and clenched their fists.
“I am a person who loves fantasy, so when I was very young, I thought about a question. What is the most fundamental difference between humans and animals?”
“It’s people who can use all kinds of tools, but animals can’t? In fact, monkeys can not only use tools, but even make simple tools from branches.”
“Because people can talk? Various facts have proved that animals also have their own language. The system is just that we humans don’t understand.”
“Are people able to use words or symbols? Even fish on the bottom of the sea will create some peculiar symbols when courting.”
“Do people understand love? We know that between animals. Love is also warm.”
“It’s curiosity? There is an animal called a silly roe deer, which is more curious than humans.”
“So, what is the most essential difference between humans and animals?”
“I thought for a long time, until one day, I I came up with an answer that may not be correct enough but I like it.”
“When we are thinking about why, we are fundamentally different from animals. When we are asking why and looking for the reason, we become The beginning of the sage.”
“The great father of philosophy and magic, Thales, once questioned the essence of the world, layer by layer. In the end, he believed that the essence of the world is water, which constitutes all things, and water nourishes all things. Water carries everything. Presumably many people now disagree with this essence, including me, but it is not important. What is important is that as great as him, it opens the door at the junction of animals and humans, making us humans real A person, not a better animal.”
“It is precisely because of the layers of questioning that he proposed the concept of’proof’. His previous mathematics and geometry existed widely in Egypt and Lianghe. Because of constant questioning, he became aware At this point, only the existence that has been proven is the real existence. Unproven is not the truth. His “proof” opened the door of mathematics, geometry, philosophy and magic, forming a multi-to-one abstraction, and then from one Expansion to many. Through proof, let us get a better way of thinking, instead of just relying on instinct, feeling, and intuition to determine one thing.”
“In the following days, inspired by Master Thales, Master Pythagoras studied mathematics and geometry, Master Parmenides pursued’existence’. Master Pythagoras’ greatest feat was to prove On the basis of “abstraction”, “number” emerges. He clearly tells us that the “real world” we see before our eyes is changing. For example, one person plus one person equals two people, and these two people will age. Will die and disappear completely in human memory, but, 1+1=2, these numbers and relationships are eternal and exist in the’real world’.”
“It is not only Pythagoras that was influenced by Master Thales After that, Leucib and Democritus also carried out inquiries about the nature of the world. These two masters went a step further on the basis of Master Thales’s “Water is the source of all things”, completely abandoning the “real world”. The existence of’, but to create and abstract an invisible substance called an’atom’, which is believed to be the indissoluble foundation of all things.”
“After Thales, many sages began to pursue the essence of the world, Some are pursuing’number’, some are pursuing’atoms’, and Master Socrates has begun to pursue’self’. Master Plato wants to pursue a’big self’, that is, a city-state, that is, to establish an ideal country.”
“Not long ago, the appearance of Master Eudox found a new door, and Aristotle’s logic opened this new door for mankind, allowing us to see a new world. Euclid followed closely, not only establishing a complete geometry, but also using axiomatization to open the door to a new world again.”
Aristotle paused for a moment, scanned the audience, and said: “This sentence is As a digression, I, Aristotle, want to make it clear that Eudox was indeed the first to discover the rudiments of logic and axiomatization, but the first contributor to logic and axiomatization was Su Ye, followed by me. And Euclid. So, whether it is the first author of “Syllogism” or “Geometry Yuanyuan”, it is Su Ye. Okay, next, I will continue to recite sacrificial texts.”
“I know that many people don’t care about these people .” , What Thales, what Socrates, what Plato, what Aristotle, what Euclidean, so far away from yourself, paying attention to them, can make you have more money, bigger house, higher Right?”
“I want to say, yes. Paying attention to them will not make you any benefit, but if you can learn their methods, the thinking behind the decision method, and apply it in any field, there will be no disadvantage!”
“I I have always been in awe and humility towards these great men.”
“It is the existence of these great men and the existence of followers of these great men that accelerate our human growth.”
“It is also the existence of these people that makes We think that humans are on a big ship, but forget that we are at sea.”
“We can dislike them, we can not care about them, we can be lazy, we can give up, we can constantly struggle between happiness and pain, and even can Forget to pursue longer-term happiness.”
“But please don’t block or laugh at them and their followers, because with them, we can feel at ease and not work hard.”
“Otherwise, we will only become monkeys crawling across the mountains, The pigs in the pigpen.”
“Their existence preserves a glimmer of hope for mankind, and hopes for everyone.”
“They are like a bright beacon towering into the sky, illuminating the world. Anyone who wants to escape from the past, wants To become a better version of yourself, you can open your arms anytime and anywhere, embrace their brilliance, and then become a follower of the light and persevere until you become a new beacon.”
“Anyone.”
“Their greatness is not important, the important thing is , Why are they great, and what can we learn.”
“Euclidean will not die. He will live forever with Axiomatization and “Geometric Elements”.”
“I did not mourn his death, I am here. Celebrate and shine on the new light of the world.”
“Perhaps, something is blocking the brilliance of the sages, but the great light will surely break through the dark clouds and shine again on the world.”
Aristotle put away the manuscript paper and put it in the space ring .
He suddenly smiled naturally.
“I said, Euclid is still alive and I see his new light.”
“Thank you to everyone who came here.”
Aristotle nodded slightly, turned and left.
He held his chest tall, his eyes bursting with light.
The crowd quietly looked at the empty podium, at the end of the sky and the sea.
There, the new light flashed.
