Transmigrate to be an Ancient Saint - C338 The school war

What was the situation when Confucius killed Shaozhen?

What was the first sentence of Mencius?

Hearing Xiao Wen’s two questions consecutively, the group of adventurers all felt stupefied.

However, the ones being shocked wasn’t only this group of wandering practitioners. Anthony, who was observing from the side and protecting Xiao Wen’s group of disciples who did not have any fighting strength, also had a stupefied expression.

The first sentence of Mencius was enough. After all, this was what was written in the book. Anthony knew that if he wanted to know the answer, he would know after he bought a book. After all, as the centurion of the defeated empire, achieving this position was no longer something as simple as fighting skills.

IQ, EQ, martial arts, command skills, as well as luck, these were all qualities a Centurion could not lack.

However, he still couldn’t help but look at Zhuge Liang, who was at the side. Yang Xiu and Shangguan Waner, ask them what was going on with Confucius killing Shaozhen.

To be honest, when he first came to the East, he had always been in the Han State and didn’t know about the situation in other countries. They only knew that a majority of the people here didn’t have any independent faith, and instead believed in a messy and numerous deity like the Roman Empire s from a long time ago — — According to their Orthodox Church, this should be the era of polytheism.

However, the people of the East were not too keen on faith. Their intellectuals, in particular, did not like to add too many religious elements to their studies. They prefer the study of their ancestors and the more primitive nature of their will to that of religion.

In Korea, they loved to study a philosopher as old as Socrates — Laozi.

That was also why when Anthony was in the Han Dynasty, he only knew about Confucius and knew about the relationship between him and his father. It was probably similar to how Socrates and Plato were together.

Thus, he looked at Xiao Wen’s three students with a questioning gaze.

Realizing that Anthony himself was present, Yang Xiu snorted coldly. Obviously, he was too lazy to answer Anthony’s question. Zhuge Liang helplessly looked at this rebellious junior brother of his. He could only helplessly explain himself.

This was because Confucius had no connection to the common people. Therefore, Zhuge Liang’s tone did not carry much respect, only a little indifference and casualness.

He explained: “In eleven years (499 B.C.), Confucius became the scoundrel of the country of Lu. The first fire of a new official is to kill Shao Zheng and establish his might. ”

“There is a saying that Confucius and Shaozhen had a feud for a long time, and it was an academic dispute. The reason he had killed Shao Zheng was purely to avenge his family. During the period of Yang Hu’s reign, Confucius refused to come out of the mountain, so he had no choice but to accept disciples to teach and earn some dried meat to eat. As the state school officials could not find their own place in the system, they scattered the people and began to conduct private education, forming a state of “courtesy in the face of the law”. Confucius was not the first scholar to engage in private education, but he did it the best. “Since they are already in the ‘wild’, of course, the composition of the students will also be mixed. Regardless of whether they are farming or brawling, as long as they are able to pay the tuition fee of 10 dried meat dishes, they will all be taught.”

“At first, Confucius was not bad, but then he met his opponent, Shaozhen. Confucius was at the peak of his education, and his students were swarming over him. He prepared for class one morning and went to the Apricot Forest in high spirits. As expected, there were crowds of people, and just as he was talking happily, the crowd suddenly dispersed, leaving only a few trusted disciples standing alone in the field like reefs after a ebb tide. Teacher Kong was puzzled. What was going on? Zilu said that people had gone to listen to the lecture. This happened many times, and the seeds of hatred took root in Confucius’ heart, causing qualitative changes. The students of the historical Confucius went there to listen to the class “three hundred and three thousand”. Three is not the actual number, but more. So this brings about a fatal disaster. ”

“Isn’t that the same as the Hebrews of the Pythagorean school?” Anthony had also read books in Eastern Rome. Although Eastern Rome was a religion controlled by the Orthodox Church, many scholars were able to study the academic history of ancient Greece with the support of the Empire.

As such, Anthony knew that there was someone like Pythas.

Pythagoras (around 580 to 500 BC) was a great mathematician in ancient Greece.

He proved a number of important theorems, including the Pythagorean Theorem, which was later named after him. The sum of the area of the square whose sides were the sides of a right triangle was equal to the area of the square whose sides were the sides.

When Pythagoras had mastered the use of mathematical knowledge, he felt that he could not be satisfied only with solving problems, so he tried to expand the field of mathematics into philosophy and explain the world from the point of view of numbers.

After some hard practice, he put forward the idea that “everything is a number”: that the element of numbers is the element of all things, that the world is made up of numbers, that everything in the world can be represented by numbers, and that numbers themselves are the order of the world.

In 500 B.C., the Pythagorean disciple Hipposus discovered the startling fact that the length of a square diagonal and its side is not centigrade (if the square side length is 1, then the length of the diagonal is not a reasonable number).

This irrationality is very different from the philosophy of “everything is a number” (meaning rational number).

This discovery terrified the leaders of the school, who thought that it would shake their dominance in the academic world, and endeavoured to seal off the spread of this truth, which forced Hebron to emigrate.

Unfortunately, they met the Bees disciples on a ship. He was brutally thrown into the water by the Bi Clan disciples.

For the first time, Hebron’s discovery revealed the defects of rational number system, which proved that it could not be equated with the continuous infinite straight line, that rational number was not full of points on the number axis, and that there were “pores” on the number axis which could not be represented by rational numbers.

And this kind of “pore” has been proved simply innumerable “.

Thus, the ancient Greeks’ idea of a continuum of arithmetic, in which rational numbers were thought to be continuous, was completely shattered.

Together with Zeno’s paradox, the discovery of unfairness is considered as the first mathematics crisis in the history of mathematics, which has a profound impact on the development of mathematics for more than 2000 years. The discovery of unfairness, together with the Zeno paradox, has a profound effect on the development of mathematics for more than 2,000 years. It has made people switch from relying on intuition and experience to relying on proof, promoted the development of axiomatic geometry and logic, and fostered the budding of the thought of calculus.

However, the truth could not be drowned after all, and the Bethesda school of thought was the “unreasonable” school of thought to erase the truth. In memory of Hebron, the venerable scholar who had dedicated his life to truth, the irreducible quantity was named “irrational numbers” — that was the origin of irrational numbers.

The mathematical crisis caused by irrational numbers continued into the second half of the nineteenth century.

In 1872, the German mathematician Dedekind, starting from the requirement of continuity, defined irrational numbers by the “segmentation” of rational numbers, and established the theory of real numbers on the basis of strict science, thus ending the era that irrational numbers are regarded as “unreasonable” and ending the first big crisis in the history of mathematics which lasted for more than 2000 years.

Although it was a long history, Anthony still did not know. Anthony who was living in this Mathematics crisis still knew that if a scholar who worked on an academic research were to be ruthless, he would really kill people for the sake of their academic beliefs.

This, like the Catholic Spaniards who burned the Muslims of the Arab Empire on the Iberian Peninsula, was essentially the same.

“It seems that no matter where the humans are from, they all have this mentality!” Anthony sighed in his heart.

At the same time, he looked at Xiao Wen and the group of Rangers with anticipation.

Honestly speaking, as a Janissary Guard, he had fought for his country with the Emperor, politics in Constantinople, the Crusaders, and faith in the Sultanate of the Roma, the Arab Empire, and the Ottoman Turks.

However, this was the first time he had experienced a war between guilds. As a result, despite the small scale of this war, there were only a dozen or so people on each side that seemed to only have the strength of hooligans, and on his side, there were only a few …
