Harry Potter’s Morning Light

  Chapter 1674 The secret words of the goddess (19)

No matter what the evaluation of the Eiffel Tower in the hearts of Parisians is, 72 people’s names are engraved on this tower, just like 72 people are buried in the Pantheon, but there is no writer among the 72 people inscribed by the Eiffel Tower. All are engineers, mathematicians, and chemists.

Literati has been bathed in a wreath of glory when he is alive, such as the road named Victor Hugo and the hot air balloon named after Victor Hugo. In contrast, science and engineering are not. Then it gets the world's attention.

  The rapid rise of Prussia has made the world understand that literature obviously cannot forge cannons, and there is no way to make cannonballs reach farther. After the short golden age of the 19th century, literary creators began to decline again, replaced by more "practical" science and engineering. The Nobel Prize in Literature is just an embellishment. People really pay attention to those in physics, mathematics and other fields. Winners.

  Does it really stand taller and closer to heaven?

  Neither telescopes on the ground nor man-made satellites in space have found a trace of heaven. Babylon built a Tower of Babel to go to heaven, so what's the use of standing taller?

In 1880, the French built the Eiffel Tower not only for the World Expo, but also to prove to the world that France's national strength was restored after the Franco-Prussian War. From this vantage point, you can see a brand new city, and you can’t see the war once here. The scars left behind.

  However, Victor Hugo’s diary recorded the situation during the siege:

  On November 27, 1870, the French Academy had resumed work. I was informed that a special meeting will be held every Tuesday in the future.

  People are making rat meat pie, which is said to be delicious.

  One onion costs one su, one potato costs one su, and a mouse can sell eight su.

  They no longer allow me to authorize the recitation of their own works, because these works are recited everywhere without my permission. They did it right. My work no longer belongs to me but to the public.

  On December 25, 1870, there was a piece of news in Paris today. A basket of oysters had just arrived and sold for 750 francs.

  At the bazaar where Ellis and Mrs. Paul Morris sell goods to help the poor, the small turkey has been selling for two hundred and five francs. The Seine is frozen.

  On December 29, 1870, gunfire continued and intense throughout the night, and the Prussians continued to attack Paris.

  Theophile Gautier has a horse that has been requisitioned and is about to be eaten. He wrote to ask me to save his horse. I asked the minister to approve his request.

  I saved the horse.

  There is unfortunate news that Alexander Alexandre Dumas died. The news has been confirmed by the German newspaper. On December 5, 1870, Alexander Alexandre Dumas passed away at the home of Puyce’s son near Dieppe.

  On December 31, 1870, Edmund de Alton-Hi visited me in the morning, and it seemed that General Dilok wanted to see me.

  The Prussians sent 12,000 artillery shells in three days. Yesterday I ate some mice and hiccups constantly. I wrote the following four-line poem:

  Ah, Mrs and Miss Mouse,

  I rely on you to survive.

  Your smile made me die,

  Your flesh keeps me alive.

I flipped through my diary and found that on December 5th, a luxury hearse was passing in front of me. It happened to be the day when Alexandre Dumas passed away. The hearse was covered with black velvet cloth and embroidered with silver stars. Even the Romans would have done this. Proud of the hearse.

  We can’t even eat horse meat, maybe it’s dog meat, maybe it’s mouse meat, I started to have stomach pain, we don’t know what we are eating!

  On January 2, 1871, Daumier and Louis Blanc had lunch with us.

  Louis Koch gave his aunt a New Year's gift—a few cabbages and a pair of live quails. At lunch, I drank quail red wine soup. The elephant in the Paris Botanical Garden was killed. The elephant shed tears at the time and seemed to know that people would eat it.

  The Prussians continue to fire 6,000 shells at us every day.

   On January 5, 1871, the bombing became more and more intense, and Issy and Vanves were being bombarded.

  Because there is no coal, the clothes cannot be dried, so they cannot be washed. My washerwoman Jean Mariette told me: If Victor Hugo has enough power and influence to ask the government for a little coal, I can wash his shirts.

On January 8, 1871, Camille Pertain brought us good news from the government. The French army regained Rouen and Dijon, Giuseppe Garibaldi won in Nouy, ​​and Louis Fred Hebe won at Babom and everything went well.

  In the past we ate brown bread, but now we eat brown bread. Everyone eats the same, which is good.

  The news yesterday was brought by two pigeons.

  A shell killed five children in a school on Wajiha Street.

  The performances and recitations of "The Punishment Collection" had to be stopped. There was no coal and gas in the theater, so there was no lighting or heating.

  January 30, 1871, Little Jeanne was still in poor health, she could not play, Miss Perry Jiaer brought Jeanne a fresh egg.

  January 31, 1871, Jeanne was still sick. She suffered from mild gastric mucositis. The doctor said the inflammation would last for a few days. , My nephew ate with us, he brought us some pickled oysters.

   On February 1, 1871, Little Jeanne got better, she smiled at me.

On February 2, 1871, I had a stomachache and I couldn’t get used to eating horse meat. Yesterday I said to Mrs. Ernest Lefever who was sitting next to me eating, "Those animal meat makes me uncomfortable. Hate it."

  Since November 1870, in order to solve the problem of famine, the citizens of Paris began to kill the animals in the Paris Botanical Garden.

  Noah’s Ark is a myth. Even if it is not a lion or a tiger, people must eat meat. The animals on the Ark cannot live together peacefully. At least they must be kept in cages to be safe.

  The green-house is like a large glass box with a lot of green plants inside.

In addition to discovering the aerodynamic equation, Claude-Louis Naville also found that ultraviolet light cannot penetrate glass, but it can penetrate quartz. The photosynthesis of plants does not require ultraviolet and infrared rays. The main photosynthetic pigments of plants are It absorbs blue-violet light and red light in visible light, so it appears green.

The three primary colors of color are red, yellow and blue, which are also the basic colors of light. The three tones and theories commonly used in art were proposed by the chemist Michel Eugène Scheffler, who was also in 1863 and 1879. Served as the curator of the French Natural History Museum, which is also in the Paris Botanical Garden.

One of the 72 lists has a deep connection with the Natural History Museum. His name is George Cuvier. He is not only a professor of natural history at the University of Paris, but also a lifelong professor of physics at the French Institute. He has studied the Paris region in particular. Mineral geography and fossil research, is the founder of anatomy and paleontology.

  Balzac once said that among the greatest men, Napoleon ranked first, Cuvier ranked second, third was O'Connell, and I would be fourth.

Cuvier proposed the organ-related laws, that the body of an animal is a system as a whole, and all parts of the body have corresponding connections. Ruminants such as cattle and sheep have teeth that grind grass teeth, and they have corresponding chewing muscles and digestion. Dao, tigers and wolves and other carnivores have movement and digestion functions corresponding to the capture of prey.

Once he was asleep well, a few mischievous students were going to tease Cuvier. They opened the window with a creak while Cuvier was asleep, and Cuvier, who was awakened, saw a face full of bristles. The monster with its mouth wide open and with horns on its head was making a terrifying howl, two hooves reached into the window, and it was about to pounce on Cuvier.

  If the teacher of the seminary saw this animal yelling "the devil", if the old professor happened to have a bad heart, he might have a heart attack, but Cuvier just glanced at it and went on sleeping.

Several students did not succeed in the pranks, so they had to stand up separately. Cuvier asked why they did it. The students asked Cuvier why he was not afraid. Cuvier smiled and said, "Didn't I tell you anything? Animals with horns and hooves are herbivores and don't eat meat, so what should I be afraid of?" The hapless students suddenly realized.

  In 1821, Cuvier proposed the catastrophe wheel. He believed that there have been many huge catastrophes in the history of the earth. The original creatures would be destroyed, and then new creatures were created. According to the catastrophe wheel, most changes on the earth will be sudden, rapid and catastrophic. For example, the ocean dries up and becomes land, the land rises into mountains, and the land may become the ocean.

  He calculated that the earth had experienced four cataclysms, but did not calculate that he would die of cholera in 1832, which is the year when Louis-Philippe erected the July Pillar in the Place de la Bastille.

  "Why do you think of the green box?" Gonsey asked Severus looking at the greenhouse of the botanical garden standing quietly by the Seine not far away.

  "Where are you going? Greenhouse or fossil museum?" Severus asked Gonsey.

  "I think it's a botanical garden." Gon Saiyi said with a curled mouth, "I remember that the pillars of the vent had a pattern of plants and vines."

   "Then I'll go to the Fossil Museum." Severus said, "Contact immediately if you find it."

  After speaking, he walked towards the red house, whose color looked very similar to the outer wall of Victor Hugo’s house on the Place des Vosges.

  　 Jeanna is Hugo’s daughter, she might be one or two years old at the time, and she couldn’t call her mom and dad accurately.
