  Chapter 1673 The secret words of the goddess (eighteen)

  The Saint-Sulpice Church is not in the vicinity of any Paris attractions. Although the Saint-Sulpice Church is about the same size as Notre-Dame Cathedral in terms of size, this church generally does not appear in undetailed travel magazines.

It used to be the richest church in Paris. Without the financial resources, it would not have been able to expand from a small church to the majestic it is now. It is almost the commanding height of the Latin Quarter, and all the surrounding buildings are lower than it. Because of this, the north tower of the church was used as a telegraph tower in the era of cable telegraph.

  Not only cities, but similar situations can be seen in the French countryside. Sometimes tourists will see a very small village, but there will be a very tall church. Generally speaking, a church is both a landmark and a holy place. It is safe to hide things in the church. However, during the French Revolution, the Saint-Sulpice church was looted. In addition to the sculptures, sundial, and pipe organs that could not be removed, they were all taken away, including the main altar, bells, paintings, and various prayer rooms. , All valuable things were looted.

Even the tombs in the basement were not let go. They were dug up, and countless bones were scattered on the ground. Later, some kind people sent these bones to the catacombs and stored them with the bones from other cemeteries, whether they were poor or poor. Rich people, officials, scholars, nobles, beggars, here they can no longer tell who is who.

  The seminary is not only a school, but also the alma mater of many celebrities. If anyone dares to disrupt the voices of these celebrities, it will get the attention of public opinion. It is much safer than the ever-changing city government and precarious churches.

Now Saint-Suppiers Theological Seminary has become the tax authority in the 7th arrondissement of Paris. Saint-Suppiers Theological Seminary belongs to the 6th arrondissement of Paris. There are many famous sights in the 7th arrondissement, such as the Eiffel Tower and Invalides, compared to the ancient Latin Quarter. There are not so many attractions, besides, who is going to the seminary after studying? What do you do after graduating from seminary?

  The school where no one comes to study is empty or empty, so it might as well be used as an office building for the government.

  After the Navy Palace, Alessandro knew that government departments were not so easy to get in, even if the local tax bureau was not in a heavily guarded place like the Navy Headquarters.

  Fortunately, Mrs. Lorris did not take them to the seminary, but stopped in front of a manhole cover. The streets of the Latin Quarter remained as narrow as they were in the Middle Ages, and there were no people around the church after nightfall.

In fact, the geometric figures made by Gianluca on the map of Paris are not very accurate. Compared with the Abbey of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, the Church of Saint-Supiles is on a more accurate rose line, and the church of Saint-Germain-des-Prés is far from the rose. The line is still a few hundred meters away, and it is just across from the Saint-Suppiers Theological Seminary.

  According to the ancient church etiquette regulations, the church must be aligned with the east and west.

  The winter solstice sun will shine in from the window opposite the sundial, and it will happen to fall on the copper wire. That day is the shortest day of the year. As time goes by, the track of the sun will get closer and closer to the altar. The priests who manage the church can follow the sun's traces. When the sun just falls on the oval bronze medallion of the altar, the vernal equinox has arrived. The Sunday after a full moon night is Easter, and then they should prepare for Easter Mass.

  In order to calculate this astronomical period, and because the deflection angle of the sun and the earth is not controlled by man-made rules, the newly built majestic church also deflected the angle as a whole. In the past, the small church was facing the east and the west, which can be used as a reference.

The Church of Saint-Germain-des-Prés also faces the West and the East. Due to the overall deviation of the Church of Saint-Suppiers, the Theological Seminary of Saint-Suppiers also shifted, and the fountain of Saint-Suppiers was also shifted. shift.

But generally speaking, the fountain of Saint-Suppiers and the fountain in the central square of the seminary are in a straight line. Clean water is sprayed from the inside, which proves that there is clean underground water. Saint-Supiers is not far from Luxembourg, which can be found in Luxembourg. Many fountains, they are likely to share an underground channel.

There is a city in the underground of Paris that is completely different from that on the ground. Even in a clean water channel, the air is not smooth. The three of Alessandro were choked by the stale air after they got into the sewer when no one was paying attention. There were two beeps.

  These underground pipes all bear the same names as the streets on the ground, but there are no street lights inside, and the whole is pitch black. Only the light of the flashlight and Mrs. Lorris’s green eyes in the dark illuminate their way forward.

  Occasionally they will pass by one or two old waterways. They are not paved with cement, but made of stone, so they can be seen at a glance, but the street names corresponding to these waterways are no longer on the latest Paris map.

   "Do you know? There are water dragons underground in Paris." Felix said at this time.

   "Dragon? The big lizard with bat wings?" Alessandro asked back.

  "You are talking about fire dragons." Felix said unhappily, "I was talking about water dragons."

   "What's the difference?" Alessandro asked breathlessly.

  Felix simply ignored him.

   "I believe in you, son." Haji, a father, said.

   "There are really dragons in this world." Felix turned his head and said to Haji.

   "Yes, I have seen it." Haji smiled and said, "There are still exhibitions in the museum."

   "That's a dinosaur, not a dragon!" Felix corrected.

Haji didn't care very much. He raised his flashlight and aimed the white light at Mrs. Lorris who was walking ahead, as if he was afraid that it would be lost.

"This is the Navier-Stokes equation." In the cafe of the Louvre, a young man in a short-sleeved t-shirt read the novel written by the smiling man in Severus's hand. After the equation, "it is a set of equations discovered by Claude-Louis Navier and George Stokes to describe fluid substances such as liquid and air."

   "You mean, aerodynamics?" Gonsai asked.

"It is related, but not limited to aerodynamics. Weather, ocean currents, and power station design can all be applied. In 2000, the Cray Number Institute set up a $1 million award to reward anyone who can help understand the El Niño phenomenon. Including computer talents, to solve the Navier-Stokes equations must use computers. This field is called computational fluid dynamics."

   "To put it simply, unless you are like a rain man, you should leave it to the computer." A middle-aged man next to the young man said, "What problem have you encountered, Leroy?"

  Gon Saiyi smiled and did not answer.

  At night, the number of tourists in the Louvre is much less, but there are still many people working in the underground research room. There is a particle accelerator 15 meters underground in the courtyard of the pyramid. This thing is not a missile. It can be launched by pressing a button.

As an antique appraiser, Gonsey has many friends. The middle-aged man is a professor of history at Sorbonne University, Jean Nicolas Limbaud, who he found in the laboratory. Coming friends.

  Even if they are all professors, those who teach liberal arts will not understand the equations of science and engineering, and the “tool man” who is good at non-destructive flaw detection will not understand the intricate history of the Middle Ages.

The young people nowadays are not what they used to be. They dress very casually. The "tool man" has a strange pattern on the chest, which looks like the logo of a certain rock band. The people who work in the laboratory are not like the ones in the movies. Must wear a white lab coat.

   "What does that sign stand for?" Severus asked.

   "Faith, can I go now, professor?" the young man asked Limbaud.

   "Go ahead." Lin Baude said with a smile, and then the "tool man" put his hand in the pocket of his jeans and left the coffee shop arrogantly.

   "Claude-Louis Neville is also one of the 72 people carved on the Eiffel Tower." Gonsey said to Severus, "Are we going to the Eiffel Tower next?"

   "Does this person have anything to do with the ‘green box’?" Severus asked.

   "What box?" Gong Saiyi asked.

  "Maybe it's not a green box, as long as it's a box."

  Gonsei looked even more confused.

  "What else do you know about Claude-Louis Naville?" Severus asked, "How is he related to Michel Eugène Chevrell except that they are both figures on the Eiffel Tower?"

   "It looks like you guys are discussing an interesting topic, can I participate?" Lin Baude asked.

   "It depends on what he says." Gonsey looked at Severus. "Boss, what do you think?"

    such as Schrodinger’s box

     That poor cat, it tortured Xie’s ears and Pei Xiaohua, I laughed all afternoon
