Fox of France

If Louis is beautiful to a certain extreme, it is almost like Prince Paris who gave the golden apple to Aphrodite walked out of myth, or like the archangel who blew the horn of doomsday with If flames and thunderbolts fell from the clouds to the world; then the next friend Amon introduced to Joseph was almost another extreme in terms of appearance.

It was a thin, short man. He has a sallow face, with two eyes that are one big and one small, and a nose that is big but flat, as if someone had slapped it so hard that it was flattened. His forehead was also flat, but his jaw was very thick and protruding. This made his mouth look extraordinarily large, and looked like a toad. Coupled with the skinny palms with protruding knuckles, and the extremely dry, flaky black-yellow skin due to skin diseases, this is like a monster that slipped out of a nightmare.

"Joseph, this is my friend Mr. Marat."

"Nice to meet you." Joseph nodded and held out his hand to him.

Marat also reached out and took Joseph's hand. But he held it very shallowly, almost just pinching Joseph's fingertips lightly with his fingertips. Joseph noticed that Marat's hand was quite cold.

"Mr. Bonaparte, I have read your paper. Do you think light is a kind of wave?" Marat said slowly, his voice also cold.

"This is not my opinion, but the existing evidence makes me more inclined to this judgment. I personally have no prejudice on whether light is a particle or a wave." Joseph replied.

"Why don't you dare to support your point of view clearly, but use such weak words to cover up your position? Is it because you don't have confidence in your own judgment?" Said in a mocking tone.

Joseph couldn't help frowning, and a word popped up in his heart: "Ugly people do more tricks!"

Indeed, "ugly people do more mischief". Generally speaking, people with low looks are prone to various discrimination in society. These discriminations often fill their hearts with anger and make them aggressive. In Joseph's view, Mara is such a typical example.

But Joseph didn't want to offend Mara at this time, because it was too dangerous to offend this guy. Although Joseph is not very clear about the history of the Great Revolution, (after all, before crossing, is this foreign history? To be honest, knowing Mara’s name already shows that he did not fall asleep when he was in history and art classes but he also knew that Marat was probably responsible for many of the appalling atrocities of the Revolution. I am afraid that there will be a lot of public and private revenge here, and Joseph is not willing to mess with such a mad dog.

"Anyway, this guy won't live long, let him go first." Joseph said to himself, suppressing his intention to retort.

"I really have no prejudice on whether light is a wave or a particle. As for my point of view, my point of view is that what it is depends on the experimental phenomenon and mathematical explanation. If the interference phenomenon can be explained mathematically from the perspective of particles , then I will also be very happy. After all, the world is so complicated, and the only thing we can really rely on is mathematics." Joseph explained.

"Ah, Joseph, your point of view is a bit Pythagorean." Danton on the side smiled and said, "Is everything a number?"

Pythagoras was a famous mathematician in ancient Greece. He and his disciples formed an important school - the Pythagorean school. A basic idea of ​​this school is that "everything is number". They believe that mathematics is the only thing that can be used to describe the entire world, and it is the true nature of the world.

"I'm not as fanatical as they are." Joseph smiled slightly. "At least, I won't throw someone into the sea just because he discovered an irrational number. But, my friend, you can also think about it. Our Is vision reliable? Not necessarily, for example, I found that some people see colors differently than others. I think..."

"Wait... What did you just say? You said that some people see colors differently from others? Are you sure there are such people?" Mara interrupted him suddenly.

"Yes, what's the matter?" Joseph asked.

"This may be a new disease that people have not noticed before." Marat said, "Can you tell me how you discovered it?"

"When I was young, a friend came to me suddenly one day and told me that he found that the geraniums in my house had different colors during the day and evening. The geraniums in the daytime were sky blue, but the geraniums in the evening were blue. Bright red. But, in my opinion, those geraniums are pink at any time. When I told him this, he was very surprised and even suspected that there was something wrong with my eyes. So we looked again A few people came to ask, and it turned out that everyone except his brother agreed that the geranium should be pink. Later we found out that his uncle also thought that the geranium was blue in the daytime and bright red in the evening. But At that time I was very envious of them, because they could see two colors of geraniums."

"Could that friend of yours come and show me?" Marla asked again.

"He's from Corsica. He's in Corsica. He can't be found now." Joseph spread his hands.

"Ah..." Marat pouted meanly, "Mr. Bonaparte, do you know that I have a friend with amazing jumping ability, who can jump directly to the moon."

Joseph hurriedly said to himself a few times in his heart, "Don't be as knowledgeable as this guy", only then did he suppress the urge to retort directly. But at this time, Dandong said:

"Could it be that the color of Tianzhu flowers does not change during the day and evening? Is it just that I saw it wrong? Is there something wrong with my vision?"

So everyone turned their attention to Dandong together.

"What are you staring at me for?" Dan Dong asked.

"Dandong, in your opinion, does the color of Geranium flowers change during the day and at dusk?" Mara asked Dandong as if watching a rare animal.

"That's right... Isn't that what you saw?" Dandong asked back.

"Do you see what color it is?" Mara asked suddenly, pointing to Louie's hair.

"Flax, should it be?" Dandong was a little uncertain.

"Well, that's right, there's no problem... Well, what color is Amon's hat?" Mara asked again.

"It's green." Danton replied immediately.

"Would you like to see again?" Marla asked.

Dandong opened his eyes wide, stared at Amon's hat for a while, and then said, "It's green."

"God! Some people's eyes really see different colors from others! Amon's hat is obviously light red!" Marat clapped his hands, and then he turned his head to Joseph and said, "Bonaparte Monsieur, look how dull you are, don't you know that this is one of the great medical discoveries?"

"I'm not a doctor after all." Joseph smiled. "In medicine, I'm almost completely illiterate."

"Aren't you going to study the matter seriously?" Marat asked.

"No, this is not an area I am familiar with or interested in. There are still many mathematical problems to be studied." Joseph replied, "Let's go back to the original topic. I think our vision is not reliable. , our sense of hearing is the same. Some people claim they can hear things that others cannot..."

"That's just a trick of the magicians," put in Marat.

"Ordinary people also have this kind of time." Joseph said, "For example, when dreaming, we can hear many sounds that do not exist at all, and see many things that do not exist at all. Our vision can deceive us, and our hearing can deceive us. Lies to us, even our imaginations can fool us, like 0.9999...is equal to one. But, math doesn't. Well, I remember a priest who said: 'When the world is turned upside down, the cross stands.' The 'cross' can I can't stand up and I won't comment, but I'm sure that even if the entire solar system is finished, I'm sure that two points can still determine a straight line. So, when other things are unreliable, I can rely on, There is only mathematics. Since mathematical calculations show that light is probably a wave, then I admit this possibility."

"What if your mathematical calculations show that light is also like a particle most of the time?" Marat asked again.

"Then it might as well be a particle," Joseph replied.

"Impossible Pythagoreans." Marat shook his head. "Mr. Bonaparte, the truth is not only presented through mathematics, it also has other, higher presentation methods."

"In what way?" Joseph asked.

"Intuition from the soul." Marat replied, "Have you read "On the Soul of Man" and "Philosophical Treatise on Man"? I think some of the views here are very reasonable. For example, different people's The colors seen by the eyes are different, it must be related to their souls..."

"On the Soul of Man" and "Philosophical Treatise on Man", Lavoisier was chatting, but he mentioned these two things when he mentioned Marat:

"That Marat, in his nonsensical treatise, also quoted the same two nonsensical articles, the nonsense nonsense in 'On the Soul of Man' and 'Philosophical Treatise on Man'. With that chaotic way of thinking, I'm pretty sure that those two anonymous articles were also written by him."

Now it seems that Lavoisier's guess should be very reliable.

"I didn't expect that in this era, I could also meet Minke." Joseph couldn't help but sighed in his heart.

However, the experience of later generations made him understand that don't try to persuade a minke, don't try to argue with a minke, because he will forcibly pull you into the field of low IQ, and then use his rich SB experience to defeat you. When you face a minke, the only sensible thing to do is to agree with him, encourage him, and train him into a big SB.
