Douluo: Law of Heaven and Earth

Chapter 944: Lu Qibin's Past - Extra : The Sun is the Center

"This is impossible!"

Hearing that the ground was moving, Li Yang's expression suddenly changed. He denied it and asked, "If the ground was moving, how could we fall to the same place after we jumped?
Since the earth is moving, how can we not feel it? !
If the earth is moving, then no mountain can stand on it!"

“These are indeed mysteries.”

Smith is different from Zhou Qing. He is not a person who has lived two lives. He does not understand the various scientific concepts under the modern worldview, but he knows one thing: "near is big and far is small."

"what?"

Li Yang was stunned, not understanding why Smith suddenly mentioned such a well-known concept. Then he suddenly understood something. He looked up suddenly and looked at the stars that were not much bigger than rice grains or sesame seeds. Suddenly, a question popped up in his mind -

If you could observe those stars, which are only the size of rice grains, up close, how big would they be?
[The earth is moving... Assuming that the earth is really moving, then the trajectories of the stars I recorded will show twisted and revolving movement trajectories, which seems to be partially explained, but there are still many doubts that cannot be solved! With the earth as the center...]

Thinking of this, Li Yang was puzzled and asked, "Indeed, if the earth is also moving, and the sun and the moon are revolving around the earth, the orbits of some stars can be explained, but there are still many doubts."

"These doubts are all based on the fact that they revolve around the earth, right?" Smith raised his lips. "Since we have made an assumption, why not be bolder? Why must the earth be the center? The sun and the moon do not necessarily revolve around the earth. It is also possible that the earth revolves on its own. This can also explain the rising and setting of the sun."

In an instant, Li Yang's whole body began to tremble.

It's not the sun and the moon that revolve around the earth, but the earth itself that is rotating?
Li Yang imagined himself as the earth and Smith as the sun/moon. He turned around with his back to him, unable to see his sight, and unable to see the stars in the sky anymore.

If this is likened to night, then facing Smith is day!

Earth
It's actually rotating!
During this process, if there is an ant crawling on her body and rotating with her, can the ant sense that it is rotating with her?

I'm afraid I can only experience the changes of "sunrise and sunset".

Similarly, compared to the entire earth, humans are actually not much bigger than ants. Even if they are Titled Douluo, who can split mountains with their strength, their bodies are still tiny.

"I want to go back."

For a moment, Li Yang felt a headache and needed to calm down. He then rearranged the trajectories of several stars that he had recorded in the past to verify various possibilities.

"Well, I'll wait for you here tomorrow." Smith said to himself.

"I didn't promise you!"

Li Yang cursed angrily, but then he became confused, "The circuit that circulates your soul power has been broken, and you have become a useless person. You can no longer practice. It's useless to continue studying the movement of the stars, right?"

"It's just an interest."

Smith said so.

"Interested..." Li Yang murmured, shook his head, and said, "You must have other reasons!"

"As your cousin, I'll give you a piece of advice: stay curious, but don't let curiosity control you, and—"

Smith said this, then changed the subject and said quietly, "Do you need a reason to do something? If living also requires a reason, then most people in this world don't deserve to live, but they are still alive."

Li Yang was thinking about something, and when he looked up again, he found that Smith had turned around and went down the mountain, leaving only half of his back, slowly descending...

···
On the second night, Li Yang came again and learned stargazing techniques from Smith. The same was true on the third night.

It was not until half a month later that Lu Qibin got up to urinate at night. He inadvertently glanced at the cliff where Li Yang and Smith were stargazing. In the moonlight, he vaguely saw two figures.

Lu Qibin's eyesight is very good, and his dynamic vision is three points better than Li Yang's. After all, his martial soul is Star Chess, and he is also developing in the direction of control under the guidance of his teacher.

Control-type soul masters generally have a pair of good eyes, which they use to understand the overall situation in battle and pass on information to their teammates.

So, driven by curiosity, after Lu Qibin finished peeing, he did not go back to his room to sleep, but quietly left home and ran towards the cliff.

When he ran to the cliff, Li Yang and Smith had already gone back and found nothing.

Lu Qibin was sure that one of them was Li Yang, and he was not mistaken, but who was the person next to her? Why did the two of them come to this place in the middle of the night?
······
"Young people are in love, and they are ignorant and don't want to think too much."

Lu Qibin coughed, picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea and moistened his throat.

Zhou Qing seemed to have guessed something about what would happen next, which was probably just the wild imagination of the young Lu Qibin.

as predicted.

Lu Qibin continued, "After discovering Li Yang and a stranger alone on the cliff at night, the young girl felt uneasy, thinking that she was threatened and had no choice... But the young girl couldn't even raise her head -"

Lu Qibin, who was only twelve years old that year, thought about a lot of things on the cliff, but he forgot Li Yang's hobby - stargazing, and he also forgot to look up at the Milky Way in the night sky that was embellished by countless stars.

So, after discovering Li Yang's secret, Lu Qibin hid in the nearby woods early the next day, waiting for the arrival of Li Yang and Smith.

When the moon rose, Li Yang and Smith arrived on time and discussed the orbits of the "big star", "middle star" and "small star" with each other.

But Lu Qibin, who was hiding far away, couldn't hear clearly. When he saw the two people talking and laughing, and the old man didn't look like Li Yang's elder, he couldn't help but jump out.

"Lu Qibin?"

Li Yang was surprised to see the newcomer and asked, "Why are you here?"

"come and see."

Lu Qibin blushed. He didn't want to see the two of them on this cliff when he went out to pee last night. He was afraid that Li Yang would apologize, so he changed the subject and asked, "Li Yang, what are you doing here in the middle of the night? Who is he? Is he your grandfather?"

"Uncle, I am her cousin."

When Li Yang was still thinking about how Lu Qibin found this place, Smith, after learning that Lu Qibin knew Li Yang and was able to run here, guessed that Lu Qibin lived in a village far away from the cliff. He also had good eyesight, "You are Li Yang's classmate, right? What a good kid!"

"Li Yang's cousin?" Lu Qibin didn't quite believe it. If he was his cousin, why would he come here so late at night?
"Let's go stargazing."

Seeing Lu Qibin's doubts, Li Yang told him the truth, "If you are interested, you can stay and join us."

"Stargazing?"

Lu Qibin remembered Li Yang’s hobby, but he didn’t believe it. After all, judging from the fact that he came here last night and tonight, who would come to stargaze every day?
There must be other secrets!
