Using myths to define science was undoubtedly a very imprecise thing.
This was because the myths and legends of Earth had been recorded in bits and pieces, and there were also a large number of elements added by later generations.
However, we can still discover some of the laws of geological and climate development in Earth's history through many myths.
For example, the story of Noah's Ark in Genesis.
The Lord saw that the sins of man were great on the earth, and he announced that he would use the flood to destroy all living creatures on the earth that had flesh and blood, and that they would die.）
The Great Flood was a common legend among many races on Earth.
Anthropologists had discovered that during the era of nations on Earth, there were legends of floods that destroyed the world at different times in the civilizations of Mesopotamia, Greece, Arabia, Russia, and Maya.
Through the investigation and analysis of the underground rock layers, the geologists of the Federation found that the sea level of the entire world had risen by more than one meter between 70 million and 10,000 years ago!
From this, it could be seen that there was indeed a great flood on Earth during that period.
Another example was the legend of the Heavenly Dog eating the sun, which was a periodic astronomical phenomenon of solar eclipse.
The reason was that when the moon moved between the sun and the earth, the three were in a straight line, and the moon would block the light from the sun to the earth.
From Earth's perspective, the sun would slowly disappear.
Then, was it possible that the story of Houyi shooting down the sun also hinted at a sudden change in the climate at a certain time?
The story of Hou Yi shooting down the sun was roughly-
On a certain day in ancient times, four suns appeared in the sky, and a severe drought occurred on the ground.
The scorching heat scorched the forest, dried the earth, and dried the seedlings and vegetation.
In order to save mankind, a hero named Hou Yi drew his bow and shot down nine suns in the sky.
In the end, there was only one sun left in the sky, which averted the sudden disaster of mankind.
Of course, based on the knowledge of the humans on Earth today, it was impossible for ten suns to appear in the sky at the same time!
If that was really the case! It wasn't just a serious drought on Earth!
If ten suns (stars) appeared in the sky, the result would be that the balance of gravity between the celestial bodies in the solar system would be broken. The atmosphere on Earth would be instantly torn apart by the huge gravity, and the Earth would become a sea of fire!
Considering the lack of scientific knowledge of the ancients, they often exaggerated the factors in historical records.
If ten suns were to be understood as starting from a certain day, the sun would be in the same situation as it was now. For some unknown reason, the radiation from the sun to the earth would suddenly increase.
(The ancients used ten days to describe it)
The consequences were severe droughts for crops on land and the depletion of water resources caused by water evaporating.
In the end, a hero named Hou Yi appeared and resolved the crisis.
.......
Lin Yong was concentrating on driving when Wang Jingyun suddenly jumped up from the back seat and shouted,""Stop the car!"
Lin Yong subconsciously stepped on the emergency brake. Fortunately, there was no car following behind him, so it did not cause a rear-end collision.
Before the car could stop, Wang Jingyun hurriedly got out of the car and looked up at the sun in the sky.
The sunlight was blinding, and soon, his eyes were stimulated to tears.
However, Wang Jingyun seemed to be oblivious to this. He muttered,"
"That shouldn't be possible!"
"The sun is about 150 million kilometers away from Earth!”
"If the legend of Hou Yi shooting down the sun is true, let's not ask why."
" At such a distance, since the predecessors solved this crisis, how did they affect the changes in the sun on Earth?”
Wang Jingyun seemed to have fallen into a trance. In the end, he sat on the side of the road and held his head as he began to think hard.
Lin Yong didn't dare to disturb his train of thought. He pulled out the car key and began to guard around him.
From time to time, some passers-by would point their fingers at Wang Jingyun. Wang Jingyun looked like she had a short-circuit.
About an hour later, Wang Jingyun seemed to have understood something!
"Let's go to Teacher Tang Rui's place. I think we can find some clues there!"”
"Alright!" Lin Yong started the car.
Tang Rui's home was a small apartment on the 17th floor of a large building.
Originally, with his status in the scientific community, he was worthy of the specialist villa provided by the Federation.
Firstly, it was because Tang Rui didn't ask for it himself. Secondly, it was because Tang Rui really didn't know how to behave when he was alive.
Therefore, some of the treatment that should have been given was ignored.
When they got into the elevator, Wang Jingyun suddenly asked Lin Yong,""What kind of person do you think Teacher Tang Rui is?”
"According to the information collected by our Princeps Guards,"
Lin Yong raised his head and looked at Wang Jingyun, carefully choosing his words.
"He is a real scientist! He had a broad mind! He is a researcher worthy of our respect!”
"Then, do you think that if someone like my teacher sensed the possible danger of mankind, why would he not tell us?“
" Or rather, why did Teacher hide the truth from everyone?”
Wang Jingyun asked another question.
"From my previous experience in investigating cases, Tang Rui might be worried that once the truth is announced, it might bring about some consequences that he doesn't want to see! Or maybe he's under some kind of threat."
Lin Yong answered subconsciously.
"Impossible!" " You know," Wang Jingyun shook her head." What threat is more terrifying than death?" My teacher isn't even afraid of death, so what is he afraid of?”
After Wang Jingyun finished speaking, she took a step out of the elevator.
"Yes, I am!" Lin Yong looked at Wang Jingyun's back with a puzzled expression.
"What is Tang Rui afraid of?"
