Chapter 1194:East-West Daoism (Part 2)

Li Hugh is not willing to Taiwan, Xiao Yu is ready to pick a Li Hugh students to go, anyway, there are several students in the school, the result of which makes Li Zhida excited, originally his character is more introverted, but in Li Hugh's deliberate training, so that his character has also undergone great changes, has known for himself.

Seeing Li Zhi's excitement, Xiao Yu hesitated but turned to Ping Lang, after all, Li Zhi's age is too young, in contrast, Ping Lang is already a teenager's appearance, and the mood is more calm, plus he is Li Xiu's son, from childhood to receive Li Xiu's education, must be the general student strong.

Thinking of these, Xiao Yue now reached out and pointed to Ping Lang: "I see Ping An Lang is good, the second stage horse does not also say that he wants Ping Lang to come to the college to study, I see now let him stand, in advance to represent the students in the college!" 」

“Why not choose me?”Li Zhi saw that Xiao Yu did not choose himself, and was very disappointed at the moment, but Xiao Yao ignored him, others care about the identity of Prince Li Zhi, but Xiao Yao did not care, especially in the college or his turf.

Li Hugh saw Xiao Yao choose Ping Langtai, the moment did not hinder, but Ping Lang comforted Li Zhi a few words, and then followed Xiao Yu's big stage, and then the scholars on both sides have also been seated, thousands of people around the audience also surrounded by these scholars, the whole venue is silent, everyone is waiting for the beginning of this argument.

After seeing Xiao Yingtai, he stood up to the opposite Zamas and Forkas and foreign scholars: "In the next place is Xiao Yu, the mountain chief of the Southern College, and all the people on the opposite side are famous scholars from Rome and Persia, this time we sit down and talk about, no matter what kind of topic can be discussed, the so-called far away is a guest, so the first topic of discussion is from you!"

Not all of these Persian and Roman scholars were as proficient in Chinese as Zamas, so Li Hue also asked them for some translations, mostly Persians and even Romans living in the Tang Dynasty, who were proficient in the two languages, and not at all.

Seeing the topic of the Tang side let himself go out first to discuss the topic, only to see Zamas and other scholars have also discussed it, and then saw Zamas first stood up: "Since the Tang's people gave us the first topic, then we are not polite, in the Persian envoy Zamas, in the history is quite good, so I am very interested in the original history, I don't know which Datang scholar can tell me?" 」

Historiography is also one of the most good subjects of Confucianism, and has always had the habit of studying history, before the emergence of Confucianism, and the history of the dynasty has not been cut off, which is very rare in the whole history of mankind, it can be said that the richness of the original historical materials, far from the other regions of the clear.

There is no need to open Xiao Yu, immediately there is an old man who must be white standing up, now from the three emperors and five emperors began to talk about, the summer merchants on Wednesday, then this is transferred to the Spring and Autumn Warring States, but also deliberately explained the life of Laozi, Confucius, Mencius and others, and finally from Qin to two Jin, the establishment of the former Sui and the Tang Dynasty, etc., although the old man has been as simple as possible, but still talked about nearly half.

Until the end of the Tang side, in response, Zamas also personally explained the history of Persia, and then there are Roman scholars to explain the history of Rome, compared with other historians is a more independent discipline in various countries, and there is no dispute, and the Tang side also told the original history of the records of Persia and Rome, which makes Zamas and others very shocked, their history books do not have such a detailed record, let alone know far away from the Han Dynasty in the Tang Dynasty, the two sides had a relationship.

After the discussion of the historical issues, began to come up with the topic of the Tang side, this time stood out is Li Xiu's old acquaintance, but also the help him to write "Li Gongzi arithmetic" Li Chunfeng, he is responsible for teaching heaven and arithmetic, and his choice of the topic is Tianxian, which is also his best.

Rome and Persia also have a high degree of history, such as the collection of ancient Roman celestial history of Ptolemy, he was born in the 85 AD, is also the original history of the Eastern Han Dynasty, more coincidentally, the most famous man of the Han Dynasty Zhang Heng, only Ptolemy was born seven years early, both of them are the most famous naturalists in human history, but were born in the same period, and in the knowledge of heaven, the two also have many similarities.

Human beings are born good for the sky, so whether it is in the original or Rome and Persia, Tianxue is a hot spot, the current scholars on both sides are also their own opinions, there is no point of contention in the history of the sky, Tianxian science has too much to argue, even if the general direction is the same, but the details also have many different views, so the debate atmosphere in the time is very strong.

Rome and Persia are very close, even if they are different in faith, but they are very frequent in the chemical communication, and most of them are mainly Ptolemy's "Heavenly Ensemble", and in Ptolemy's view, there is a most important thing in the earth, and the earth is fixed and different between the universe, and all other celestial bodies revolve around the earth.

Although the earthly heart is said to be the first of Aristotle, but was carried forward by Ptolemy, Roman and Persian scholars also hold this doctrine, originally had a similar view on this side, but with the popularity of Li Xiu on the day, including Li Chunfeng, scholars, have understood that the earth is not fixed, but around the sun, the sun is also in motion, far from the heart of the universe.

The result is around whether the earth is fixed and different views, the two sides also engaged in a fierce debate, although the view of the Tang side is correct, but in this era after all, there is no strong evidence, so the two sides argued for half a day, the last day is dark, but also failed to argue what results.

However, in the end, Li Chunfeng invited the Celestial Scientists of Rome and Persia to go to the stargazing platform of the Academy at night, where there is a special telescope to observe celestial objects, of course, this day telescope is far less than the telescope of future generations, otherwise it can prove that the earth is also in operation.

It will be late, the first day of the debate is mainly gathered in the school, but unfortunately the two sides did not debate a result, but this does not affect the high mood of both sides, that night, Zamas these people live in the college, the fact that the whole conference is probably to take a few days, or even a dozen days, after all, the two sides have too many similarities and differences, not a short day or two can be discussed.

The next morning, the conference continued yesterday's topic, but the two sides had already expressed their views yesterday, and even if Li Chunfeng asked the scholars of Rome and Persia to look at the stars with a telescope, they still could not let them change their views, especially the Roman scholars, and they were very stubborn.

The fact that the earthly heart said that for Rome, it was not only a heavenly doctrine, but also related to their religion, the Eastern Roman Empire belonged to the scope of the Orthodox Church, although it was somewhat different from the Catholic Church, but the essence was still the same, so they, like the Catholic Church, have always held the heart of the earth, to know that Bruno later because of his opposition to the earth, the result was burned alive by the Church, and now naturally does not easily believe that the earth revolves around the doctrine of the sun.

So the two sides debated again one afternoon, and in the end no one could convince anyone, and this topic was debated for too long, so under the auspices of Xiao Yao's Zamas, the two sides stopped the debate, and also exchanged gifts, Datang gave each other the map of the nine planets of the solar system drawn by Li Sheu, while Rome gave Data to Data was Ptolemy's eleven yesterday map, but also the earth as the heart, but the moon, Mercury, Venus, Venus, Sun, Mars, etc.

The Tianxian debate came to a temporary end, and then the two sides discussed geography, medicine, philosophy and other doctrines, and the whole conference lasted for more than half a month, and during this period, there were constantly attracted scholars to join it, and at the same time attracted countless listeners, and finally even the Nanshan College, which had always been at peace with the Southern College, also sent people to join the discussion of this rare collision of Eastern and Eastern ideas.

Li Huo has not been on the table from the beginning to the end, but he saw the end from the beginning, especially in the discussion of the medical aspect, Ping Lang is also actively speaking, the theory of the doctor, and even the next day Sun Siqing also invited, because Rome and Persia in medicine also have a very unique view, especially Rome is very good at treating eye diseases, which also aroused Sun Siqing's interest, many times humbly to ask each other.

The scholars of Persia and Rome also saw the gods of Datang medicine with their own eyes, because Sun Siqing shot on the spot, treated each of them, and came out with some problems in their bodies, which made these people also respect Sun Siqing as gods.

With the passage of time, although the conference was very wonderful, it finally came to an end, after all, the scholars of Persia and Rome were limited, and they had their own task of sending the Tang Dynasty, and it was impossible to debate them all the time, but through these days of debate, it was enough to make the two sides realize each other's clearness and progress.

However, at the end of the conference, one day later, the Persian envoy Zamas suddenly came to Li Huo's house to ask for another meeting, and Li Huo had already waited for this day, because there were still many things that were not understood in the next meeting, especially about Bahr, so he had already guessed that Zamas would definitely come to see himself again.
