The geek of the Tang Dynasty: My science can blow through Chang'an
Su Mo, the king of laboratory papers, was struck by lightning and thrown into the execution ground of the Tang Dynasty while staying up late for liver experiments. His white coat was burnt black and he was holding half a piece of copper wire. He was directly regarded as a demon who was colluding with demons!
Fortunately, he speaks loudly about heaven and earth, and his scientific knowledge covers the past and present——
The county magistrate wants to behead his head? "Let's make a bet first! I'll use a bowl of water, a spoonful of oil, and a handful of salt to make the oil and water separate automatically. Can your fake Taoist priest do it?" Demonstrated the density separation technique on the spot, and stunned all the officials in the room;
Is the old Taoist pretending to be a ghost? "Can you draw talismans to purify sewage? Can you make salt automatically dissolve in water? Don't cheat on food and drink here. Why don't you learn the art of observing things from me!" Thirty big boards taught him how to behave;
Cheng Yaojin is looking for trouble with his axe? "Master, don't rush to do it! I'll add a spring mechanism to your axe, which will double the strength and be lighter. I'll also give you a whole saltwater conductive gadget, which will make the Turks jump!" The demon king was so shocked that he carried him back to Chang'an on the spot;
The pedantic minister scolded him for his strange magic to confuse the public? "I improved farm tools to increase grain production, and built repeating crossbows to reduce the bloodshed of the Tang army. What else can you do besides quoting scriptures? If you don't accept it, come and argue. If you lose, bring me tea!"
Be clear-minded and tell the truth scientifically! With a poisonous mouth and a brain full of modern knowledge, Su Mo went crazy in the Tang Dynasty: improving weapons and shocking Li Shimin's jaw, opening a soda shop to make the princes and princesses cry, fighting with Confucian scholars to overthrow pedantic ethics, and even using scientific principles to predict the weather and control floods...
From then on, Chang'an had a "whispering geek" who scolded the powerful to the point where they couldn't stand down, used science to destroy the old rules, and forcibly transformed the Tang Dynasty into a "scientific and technological power".
