Davers said lightly: "Marigi, there is an old saying in the East, I wonder if you have heard of it?"
"What old saying?"
"If God wants it to perish, he must first make it crazy."
………………………
Nick Stratus, Stasipus, and Lycasus are standing in front of the gate of Dionian Academy.
This is a gate with a peculiar shape, a large white arch with a large stone ball supported by the vault, and a thick sword-shaped stone stele extends straight from the middle of the arch to bear against the vault, thereby also The arch is divided into two.
There is a sentence engraved on the stone tablet: Everything moves in its own way, and its mystery can only be obtained by tireless explorers.
Nick Stratus scribbled this sentence, and he couldn't help nodding his head again and again, and then down, he saw the signature-Daves.
"Daves? Which Daves is it?" Nick Stratus asked in surprise.
"What else! Of course it is the Archon of Dionia!" Stasipus replied.
"This is a place where scholars gather, a sacred place! What qualifications does he have to be here!" Nick Stratuston changed his color, and he was about to say a few words immediately.
Stacipus was shocked and hurriedly dissuaded him: "Don’t talk nonsense, Daves is not just a consul, but he is respected as a teacher by the doctors of Dionia, even those studies Mathematics scholars also respect him very much. It is said that he has received a lot of enlightenment from him, so people in the whole academy respect him. Moreover, I have listened to Davers's lecture last year, and the medical knowledge he told is indeed Unique and thought-provoking... No wonder many people say,'He is the messenger sent to the world by the gods.' If these people hear you insulting him here, they will definitely come into conflict with you!"
"...I'm not afraid of Dionians..." Nick Stratus grumbled hard, stopped talking, and walked into the gate of the academy with Stasipus.
Lykassus kept staring at the orb in the vault, stepped across the gate tremblingly, and then walked a few steps, then couldn’t help but look back, muttering to himself: "Such a heavy stone ball What's interesting on the top, don’t worry about it falling off."
"Little guy, you don't understand this." A young man in his 20s stood inside the gate and explained loudly: "The dome in the vault symbolizes the land where we live--"
"Wait, you said the ground under our feet is round?!" Lycasus interrupted him in surprise.
"Of course. Otherwise, why do you always see the sails every time you look at a ship sailing in the distance. You know, Thales of Miletus as early as 200 years ago... Forget it, this question? It’s not clear to you for a while, you just have to remember that the land we live in is a big ball!" The young man said impatiently, then he pointed to the vault and said: "Look at this arch again. What does it look like?"
Lykasus was reminded by him and took a closer look: "Oh, it's a pair of arms!"
"Yes, holding the ball with both hands means that human beings can transform the earth!" The young man said excitedly: "But what should we use to overcome terrible disasters and transform the earth?"
"How do I know?" Lycasus glared at the young man who was pulling him hard, and said angrily.
"Have you seen the words engraved on that stone tablet!" The young man pointed at the sword-shaped stone tablet and said vigorously: "We rely on knowledge, we rely on exploration, and we rely on scholars who are constantly studying hard. The gate designed by Master Davos is really meaningful!"
Lykasus sneered, dissatisfied with his boasting.
The young man obviously didn’t pay attention to the other person’s look, and he took Uncle Luca’s hand and said: “Now I tell you why the stone ball doesn’t break the vault and fall down. The characteristic that the weight is dispersed to the two ends..." As he said, he picked up a branch and drew an exploded view of gravity on the ground: "Of course the gravity of the stone ball cannot be completely dispersed, the pressure on the vault still exists, and The support of the stele is the key..."
Poor Lycasus's professional explanation of young people is like listening to the heavenly book, completely at a loss.
Because of curiosity, Nick Stratus, who was listening to the side, was completely impatient at this moment, and shouted: "Lycasus, it's time to go! It's getting dark, don't miss the registration! "
"Yes!" Lycasus drew his hand back in fright, almost causing the young man to fall.
"Sign up? What's your name?" The young man looked at them suspiciously.
"We are here to participate in the medical forum." Stasipus replied.
"You are here to find doctors who deal with corpses and bones!" The young man suddenly realized.
"Go! Go!" He suddenly lost his interest in being a teacher, and slapped Lycasus's hand, as if he was afraid of some bad luck.
"This person is sick, crazy..." Lycasus muttered, following Stasipus.
The trees in the academy are lush and lush, and a gravel-paved path is sheltered among the trees covered with green shade and intertwined branches.
The three of them strolled along, and they didn't go very far when they heard an urgent call: "Be careful, don't step on!"
Stacipus hurriedly stopped, only to find a man crouched on the ground by the side of the road, holding a piece of limestone in his hand, densely drawn with words and symbols on a relatively flat paving stone in front of him.
The man protected the stone with his body, looked up at them, and urged dissatisfiedly: "Go away! Go away!"
"It is estimated that these people are scholars from the Institute of Mathematics in this Dionian Academy. It is said that most of them are from the Pythagorean school of Tarantum." Stasipus was dissatisfied with Nick. Stratus explained.
It turned out to be these lunatics! Nick Stratus suddenly realized that the Pythagorean school regarded "mathematics as the god", and often held some weird rituals, and his whereabouts were secretive. In the early years, he had close ties with the nobles of the city-states of Great Greece and opposed democracy. Therefore, Many people regard it as heresy and avoid it for fear.
Dionia accepted them! There was disgust in Nick Stratus.
Wait until they see again: Some people are leaning on a tree trunk, looking up at the sky, and muttering to themselves; some have no gods, walking like puppets, not knowing what they are thinking; some people were lying on the mud and suddenly jumped When they started, ecstatic...After waiting for so many weird speeches and behaviors, the three of them were no longer strange.
Passing around a few tall trees, a small pavilion appeared in front of it. Many people formed a circle in the pavilion, and something seemed to be placed in the center...
They fiddled with the object while arguing fiercely.
The curious Lycasus approached the pavilion, only to hear what they were saying, "How long should the span of the bridge be?"...
"Where should it be built to ensure the level of the bridge deck?"......
"How many piers are needed to support this bridge?"...
"How far apart should I be?"
……
"Are you here to participate in the medical forum?" A person walked out of the crowd, looked at the medicine box on Lycasus' waist, and asked hurriedly.
Before Lycasus could answer, Stasipus bowed and said respectfully, "Doctor Stacey Cordas, hello!"
"Are you?" Stacey Cordas looked at him suspiciously, trying hard to find his name from memory.
"I am Dr. Stasipus from Crotone. This is Dr. Nick Stratus and Lycasus. Both are from Crotone." Stasipus did immediately. introduce.
"Oh, look at my memory, I'm so sorry! I remember, last year you did a...Um..."Aloe Vera in Sports Bruises" lecture!" Stacey Cordas shot Forehead, said apologetically.
"Yes, that's a little experience I exchanged last year. It's been a long time, you still remember it!" Stasipus was delighted.
"Of course I remember! Inspired by your speech, some doctors in our medical school have conducted more in-depth research on aloe vera this year, and there have been some new developments, which will be mentioned in this forum "Stasikodas said seriously.
"That's great!" Stasipus couldn't help cheering, forgetting the somewhat unnatural Nick Stratus beside him.
But Stacey Cordas did not forget, he took the initiative to salute: "Welcome, Dr. Nick Stratus!"
Nick Stratus's reserved response.
"And you, Nikasus! Welcome to Dionian Academy!" Stacey Cordas said enthusiastically, while leading them to the medical school.
"I'm so sorry! Today is my turn to welcome the doctors who came to the forum at the entrance of the college. I just stood there for a long time, and I was a little tired. Question, I almost missed you." Stacy Kodas said embarrassedly as he walked.
Stacipus was stunned: "You mean building a stone bridge?"
"Yes, the Dionian Road and Bridge Management Department is preparing to build a stone bridge on the Saraceno River to replace the previous wooden bridge. After obtaining the approval of the Senate, the design and data measurement task of the stone bridge will be handed over. It will be completed by the Institute of Mathematics. The deputy dean of the Institute of Mathematics, Matticulis, led a group of people to fight for more than ten days. The plan has been basically completed... If this time the Saraceno River Stone Bridge is successfully built, no more Build a few bridges and accumulate enough experience, and Little Heracred can build a bridge on the Craty River!" Stacey Cordas smiled "hehehe", obviously full of expectations about it, because if A stone bridge directly connecting the main city of Turiyi and the southern city can be built, so pedestrians from north to south will cross this stone bridge without having to cross the wooden bridge through the delta. The environment around the school will be quiet. a lot of.
