Chapter fifty-four willing to admit defeat

"This is impossible!"

Liu Ruyi's beautiful eyes widened, her pretty face no longer had the calmness it had before, she shook her head and said.

The little maid on the side also opened her mouth slightly in surprise. In terms of surprise, she was no less surprised than Liu Ruyi.

When dropped from the same height, heavy objects must hit the ground first before light objects. This is a concept that has been ingrained in their minds for more than ten years--but the two people just saw two pieces of different sizes.

The stones clearly fell to the ground at the same time!

"You must be cheating!"

Liu Ruyi looked up at Li Yi and said firmly.

"I knew you would say that."

Li Yi shrugged and said with an indifferent expression: "If you don't believe me, try it yourself."

If the law of free fall can lead to different results from Liu Ruyi's hands, then it doesn't matter if he loses fifty taels of silver to her?

In another world, Aristotle relied on his mysterious self-confidence to come up with the conclusion that "heavy objects fall faster" and dominated Western academic circles for nearly two thousand years.

One day two thousand years later, Galileo Galilei walked up to the Leaning Tower of Pisa and threw two iron balls of different weights down, using the double-ball experiment to prove the law of free fall.

Similarly, in today's world, no one has discovered this truth that could only be understood by doing a small experiment because of the "natural" concept of the ancients.

Liu Ruyi picked up two stones again and went to experiment. When she saw the two stones falling to the ground at the same time in her hands, she was stunned. Then, she gritted her teeth and said, "Xiaohuan, come and try it."

!”

The reason why a law is a law is that it does not change due to objective conditions. Liu Ruyi is doomed to fail if he attempts to challenge the laws of nature.

"Why...why is this like this?"

Looking at Liu Ruyi from a distance as she muttered these words with a blank look on her face, as if even the long-established worldview was beginning to collapse, Li Yi felt a little bit guilty in his heart.

Is it too despicable to deceive a weak woman in this way?

No, my sister-in-law is not a weak woman. If such a woman could become a weak woman, then the world would have been ruled by women long ago.

"I'm willing to admit defeat, can you teach me martial arts now?" Li Yi walked over, looked at Liu Ruyi, and said with a smile.

"Why?" Liu Ruyi looked up at him and asked through gritted teeth, "Why did the two stones fall to the ground at the same time?"

For her now, winning or losing is not actually important. What is important is that the creed in her heart has undergone earth-shaking changes over the years, and she needs to know the reason for this.

Xiaohuan also looked at Li Yi with wide eyes, his big eyes filled with the light of curiosity.

It is indeed difficult for Li Yi to explain the origin of the law of free fall. Basic physics has not been established in this world, and it will be even more troublesome to explain to them the knowledge of acceleration.

He thought for a while and said: "You can understand that the speed of the falling stone has nothing to do with the weight of the stone. No matter how different the weight of the two stones is, if they fall from the same height, they will always fall to the ground at the same time."

This explanation------is actually the same as no explanation.

"You only know one but not the other, right?" After listening to Li Yi's explanation, Liu Ruyi looked at him with contempt.

How could a good young man with higher education be despised by ignorant women in feudal society? Li Yi looked at her and asked: "Do you know where the river in the back mountain flows?"

"Nonsense, of course it flows down the mountain!" Liu Ruyi said rudely.

"Why?" Li Yi looked at her and asked, "Why does the river always flow from the mountain to the bottom of the mountain instead of up from the bottom of the mountain?"

"Because..." Liu Ruyi subconsciously opened her mouth to explain, but as soon as she said two words, she couldn't say any more.

Water naturally flows from high places to low places. Is there any reason for this?

Li Yi's questions didn't stop there.

"Why do the leaves on the trees always fall to the ground instead of flying into the sky?"

"Why can I see my own shadow in the water?"

"Why are the colors of the rainbow after the rain always red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple from the outside to the inside?"

------

------

Questions came out of Li Yi's mouth like a barrage of questions. Liu Ruyi's mouth opened and closed again, completely stunned.

In autumn, the leaves on the trees fall to the ground, your own shadow can be seen in the water, and the order of colors in the rainbow - aren't these things taken for granted?

Do these need explanation?

But------Why?

Liu Ruyi and Xiao Huan stood in the yard, and questions began to appear in their minds. Li Yi's words seemed to open the door to a new world for them.

It turns out that these subtle things that they don't pay attention to in daily life are not as simple as they seem.

"Even in very small things, there is great knowledge hidden, and in this world, not every problem has an explanation." He gave the two people a free enlightenment on natural science, and Li Yi felt a little better.

Some sense of accomplishment.

"Uncle, why are all these happening?"

The little maid raised her head in confusion, looked at Li Yi and asked.

Li Yi: "..."

------

------

I am willing to admit defeat, Miss Liu Er's character is still very trustworthy.

In the inner courtyard, Li Yi was sitting on a stone bench, looking at Liu Ruyi who was obviously unhappy across from him, and asked excitedly: "Can you know the Eighteen Palms of Subduing the Dragon?"

"What are the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms?" Liu Ruyi frowned and looked at him and asked.

"The most powerful palm technique in the world, there is a sound of dragon roar when the move is made, the palm technique is wonderful, unparalleled in the world..." Li Yi explained with gleaming eyes.

"Never heard of it." Liu Ruyi said lightly.

"What about the Six Meridians Divine Sword? Gather all the true energy at the fingertips and stimulate it out from a distance. You can hit the enemy's acupuncture points at close range and use the energy to hurt people from a distance. This is the best and most exquisite swordsmanship in the world."

"..."

"I haven't heard of Lingbo Weibu. Have you ever heard of Lingbo Weibu? After practicing it, you will be as light as a swallow, can fly over eaves, walk over walls, and walk on water..."

"..."

"I've never heard of this... Then I've probably heard of Tai Chi. The weak overcomes the strong, the soft overcomes the strong, the hard and soft complement each other, and the strength is used to fight, and the four ounces can move a thousand pounds..."

------

------

After Li Yi finished speaking, Liu Ruyi looked at him with a frown and said: "I have never heard of anyone practicing these wonderful skills you mentioned, such as the Eighteen Palms for Subduing the Dragon, the Six Meridian Divine Sword, Tai Chi...

…, According to what you said, even if you learn just one of these superb martial arts, you will be able to dominate the martial arts world, but no one in the world can achieve any of what you said."

"Let's not talk about other things for now. Just talk about releasing the true energy. Even if you are a master, it is absolutely impossible to do this."

"Ah, you don't have any of these?"

Li Yi's face showed a look of disappointment that could not be concealed. After working for a long time, he realized that the so-called martial arts master in this world is more than a little bit different from the grandmaster in the martial arts world of Mr. Jin!

"Where did you hear all these martial arts?" Liu Ruyi raised her head and looked at him, a trace of doubt flashing in her beautiful eyes.

"This matter is a long story..."

"Let's talk about it for now."

"Well, okay..."

Li Yi thought for a while and said: "It is said that in the Southern Song Dynasty-------according to legend, in the late years of the previous dynasty, there were five top masters in the world, fighting for the best martial arts book in the world, the Nine Yin Manual.

, we made an appointment to fight at the top of Mount Huashan. The battle lasted for seven days and seven nights, until the sun and moon lost all light, and the sky and earth eclipsed..."
