To my frozen hometown

Chapter 91 Sometimes it is easier to believe a lie than to face the reality

Science requires rigor.

This is a sentence that Azttod often said to others in the past.

At that time, he believed that all things would have answers, all problems would have their correct solutions, and any goal, as long as the direction was clear, would always be realized one day.

He used to be a very strict person. This kind of strictness was not only his requirement for himself, but also his requirement for others.

Most people who have worked with him will make the same assessment of him, that is, he is a good researcher, but not a good person.

He has profound knowledge, the courage to explore, and unswerving perseverance, but he lacks some of the most fundamental qualities of being a human being.

He doesn't know how to tolerate, don't know how to tolerate, let alone compromise.He once said that he would never learn these things because he only pursued the truth.

Of course, this was all a long time ago.

As Azttod himself said, he was still very young at that time, so he was young and energetic.

Time will always tell people some truths that cannot be ignored. It will use facts and experiences to change a person from beginning to end.

It is obvious that Aztord is such a changed man.

The too quiet years smoothed his arrogance and edges, the too long loneliness precipitated his anxiety and impetuosity, and the too vast ice field and starry sky made him feel his own insignificance.

Until now, he still hasn't been changed by time, probably only the part in his heart, the attachment to the universe.

He is still looking up at the starry sky, day after day, year after year.

He is still looking for the trajectory that connects the Milky Way, because he believes that it will be the future journey of mankind.

At this point, Azttod had never had any doubts about his own ideas.

What he doubted was that he no longer had enough time left, but that he might have no way to continue completing this destined long work.

So, Aztod decided to make one last change of his.

What is the purpose of science? For this question, the former Azttod may answer this way.

Science exists to make human beings progress. It can make life more convenient, make the environment better, and make the future more choices.So it exists, so it's vital to humanity.

But the current Azttod can only give such an answer.

Science exists to change the status quo.

There may seem to be no difference between these two answers, but if you think about it more carefully, you will find that there is a fundamental difference between them.

That's the qualitative difference.

One of them defines science unilaterally as positive progress, and the other defines science as change.

And change is full of uncertainty.

Science needs to be rigorous, but the results it will bring are not single.

Therefore, Azttod is going to do a ridiculous thing, use the most rigorous attitude, the most meticulous logic, and all his knowledge to weave a lie that is enough to connect the starry sky together.

He will tell people that he has found the way hidden among the stars.

He will tell people that this road is not far away, even within reach.

In the future, this lie may be exposed, and it may even bring great losses to mankind.

He will become a joke, or a criminal in history.

However, it is undeniable that if human beings still have a little will to struggle, if human beings still have a little desire to struggle.Then, this lie can make them raise their heads again, look up at the sky, explore the universe, and look for the future.

They need a direction, even if it's just a false one.

They need to continue to study, because as long as people are still exploring, the real way will be discovered one day.

Azttod wanted to tell a lie, he wanted to tell people that he saw a path through the stars.

He wants to awaken courage in people's hearts, in this era where courage is no longer discussed.

He wants people to prove and think, and in the end, prove him wrong.

The sunlight passing through the wind and snow was tinged with icy white. In the silent laboratory, Azttod picked up his pen.

"So, where should I start?"

As he said this, he was silent for a long time.

Then, finally wrote down the first word in an experiment note.

"Potential."

······

Once upon a time there was a lonely explorer who walked alone on a dark road and got lost in the darkness.

But he knew that the right path lay in this darkness.If you can't escape, everyone will starve to death here.

So he yelled at everyone behind him.

"Hey, I found my way."

Attracted by his voice, the confused people gathered enthusiastically and eagerly.

However, it didn't take long for someone to expose his clumsy lie.

But at this time, people are already in darkness.

As a result, everyone shouted and cursed while looking for the right direction.

Finally, people found a way to survive in the dark.

As for the explorer, he had already died one night.

When he watched the crowd come.

When Aztod left the laboratory, he had written more than ten pages of manuscripts.

Liu Yuan had just prepared dinner and brought the food to the table.

Due to work reasons, the old man had handed over the work of preparing three meals to this homeless person. She also sent breakfast and lunch to the laboratory.

At the dinner table, Al still didn't pay attention to Liu Yuan's intentions. Obviously, she was still angry about what happened last night.

Looking at the rich food on the table, the old man took a sip with a smile, and then praised with satisfaction.

"Yuan, your ability to handle ingredients is definitely the best I've ever met."

"Thank you." Liu Yuan replied immodestly, after all, she did have some confidence in this aspect.

"That's right." At this moment, the old man seemed to have suddenly remembered something, put down the tableware in his hand, and announced while sitting on his seat.

"I want to tell you a piece of good news. My research has just made a major breakthrough and progress."
