Chapter 833: Those who achieve first come first
After hearing Rui's explanation, Sun Star Lord could understand every word, but when they were put together, he had no way of understanding it at all.
After all, this homely immortal who never leaves the sun rarely has the opportunity to leave his post and go to heaven to learn about the latest situation in the fairy world.
If he had studied a little bit about the astronomy section in the new knowledge of Jiejiao, he would not have been so confused when listening to it.
As Wenrui's smuggling business in the Heavenly Court grew bigger and stronger, the Jiejiao knowledge series had already been circulated among the immortals in the Heavenly Court. Even many immortals from the Chenjiao had obtained a copy and hid in their own immortal palaces to secretly study it.
But in an environment like the Sun, tablet computers and paper books cannot survive at all, which indirectly leads to the Sun Star God appearing to be somewhat uncultured.
Seeing that he didn't understand anything at all, Wen Rui's habit of being a teacher was aroused. He stopped watching soap operas to kill time and directly switched the screen to the Yaomeng Education Channel and played the astronomy online course video.
"Come, come, come. It just so happens that I have nothing to do recently, so I will teach you one or two of my Great Jie Sect's secret methods of cutting the sky."
Waving at the confused Sun Star Lord and motioning him to sit on the sofa next to him, Wen Rui pointed to the online course video that had started playing and said enthusiastically: "I will teach you about entry-level astrophysics so that you can know what the light of the sun and moon and the brilliance of the stars are, and how the stars in the universe operate."
"You, you are going to teach me, the Sun Star Lord, about the knowledge of the sun?"
The Sun Star Lord was stunned and said, "Your Highness, even though I am a weak god, I have lived on this sun for tens of thousands of years and have ruled the sun for tens of thousands of years..."
"The Jade Emperor was a single-celled organism for hundreds of millions of years and was reincarnated several times, but he doesn't seem to know much about astronomy, geography, and the ways of the world."
Wen Rui spoke with great rebellion, lacking even the slightest respect for the Jade Emperor: "Even though you've stayed on the sun for a long time, what's the use? The black tortoise that Nuwa killed to mend the sky had lived since the beginning of the world, so didn't he live in vain?"
"Your Sun Planet can't even hold paper. Even if you have an epiphany, you can't write it down or write a paper about it."
"If you just work in isolation and comprehend on your own without a systematic knowledge system to support you, even if you are given tens of thousands of years, you will not be able to comprehend any real knowledge."
After being scolded by Wen Rui, he recalled the evaluation of this newly promoted Heavenly Venerable in a friend's letter: "The contemporary leader of Jiejiao, he has already integrated all the Jiejiao scriptures passed down by Tongtian Patriarch. The Jiejiao knowledge series he compiled can be called a rare book for all ages. Mortals who learn from it can use the way of heaven for their own benefit and create miracles with mortal power."
The Sun Star Lord finally put away his arrogance and pride, and sat on the sofa next to Wen Rui somewhat stiffly, like a primary school student meeting a famous teacher.
The teaching videos on the Yaomeng Education Channel are very well-produced, with a production level that is not inferior to the documentaries on the Discovery Channel. They explain in an easy-to-understand way the movement of the nine planets in the solar system and some basic space knowledge.
When it comes to investing in educational films, Yaomeng is quite willing to spend a lot of money, which can be regarded as a kind of political correctness for Yaomeng, a country based on knowledge.
Among the many forces in the Three Realms, no organization is more respected than the Demon Alliance, and it can even be said that there is no organization that believes in knowledge more.
The Sun Star God, a country bumpkin who has lived on the sun for tens of thousands of years, has never had the chance to study. How could he have seen such fine knowledge? While watching the video and listening to the explanation, he combined his own insights when he looked up at the stars on the sun. After verifying each other, he found that his insights gained over tens of thousands of years had already been clearly summarized by others, and formed a very systematic and complete knowledge system.
The video also mentions many calculation formulas, such as the formula for calculating the orbital position of the planet, the formula for calculating the life span of the sun, the formula for calculating the red shift of the spectrum to determine the distance of distant stars... the solar activity cycle, the fusion principle of the sun's core...
Everything about the sun can be seen in the video.
However, this popular science video does not seem to be aimed at professionals, because the narrator used the term "kids" many times when talking to the audience.
The Sun Star Lord is not a fool. Of course, he would not think that the person giving this explanation is a super experienced Taoist with a lifespan of billions of years. In his eyes, everyone is a child.
Instead, I realized that this video is for children. Although the knowledge covered is wide, it is very superficial and does not involve higher-level advanced theoretical knowledge.
After watching the video, Sun Star Lord recalled what Wen Rui had just said, and he could barely understand what he was trying to do.
"Master Tianzun, what you mean is that most of the sun's light is directed into the void, and only a small part of it shines on the primitive land. The sky curtain you built will leave a gap, so that part of the sunlight can still shine on the primitive land as usual, while the part that shines into the void will be collected by your sky curtain magic weapon and used for other purposes?"
"Hey, this kid is teachable!"
Wen Ruiton felt greatly relieved, stroked his beard and laughed, nodding repeatedly: "As expected of a celestial being born in the universe, your understanding in this regard is superior to that of mortals born on the ground. You really understood it immediately, which saved me a lot of words."
The Sun Star Lord is just a little unsophisticated, but his intelligence is not bad. After watching the popular science video on astronomy for young children, his mind immediately started racing and he was able to draw inferences about other situations.
"But according to the laws of planetary motion, the Great Desolate Continent revolves around the sun. Unless the sky curtain rotates along with the Great Desolate Continent, it can be ensured that the gap is always facing the Great Desolate Continent and will not block the sunlight shining towards the Great Desolate Continent."
"Moreover, the rotation of the sky curtain must also be calculated precisely. Otherwise, if there is a slight deviation, strange celestial phenomena of alternating day and night will appear on the vast land, and the climate will be greatly affected."
Wen Rui's eyes flashed with admiration, and he praised: "Young man, you have a promising future. I like you more and more. Alas, you have been delayed. If you had met me earlier and studied with me for a few years, you would have been a good candidate to enter the Academy of Sciences."
In terms of actual age, the Sun Star Lord is only tens of thousands of years older than Wen Rui. Being called a young man by a super super junior, the Sun Star Lord felt somewhat uncomfortable.
However, when it comes to the path of cultivation, one must be the most accomplished. This unspeakably young new Heavenly Venerable in front of him does have extraordinary qualities. Just a little bit of his knowledge can greatly inspire me, who has been comprehending the sun and stars for thousands of years.
Thinking this way, the psychological imbalance gradually subsided, and I even felt some anticipation and happiness of being recognized.
"You can think of it right away after watching the popular science video. How can I, the one who compiled this astronomical knowledge, not think of it?"
Wen Rui leaned back on the sofa and said confidently, "Wait until my sun-blocking canopy is finished, and then I'll let you see the intelligence level of a cosmic super project. It's just turning according to the laws of planetary motion. Compared with the other important functions of the canopy, it's not worth mentioning at all!"
