Super Military Scientist

The first thousand six hundred and seventy chapters came to Crete

This kind of thinking is like what we all believe some experts say now. We ordinary people feel that the experts are superior. What the experts say must be the truth.

This is why we modern people trust some experts too much. In fact, experts are ordinary people. Although they know more than ordinary people. It does not mean that what they say is the truth.

We can believe what the experts say. Don't believe some. We should hold ourselves in pursuit of truth in everything we do. We can believe what the experts say, but we cannot believe it completely.

Of course we must respect such sages as Plato. But it does not mean that what he has said is the truth. He said that the Atlantis civilization was near the Strait of Zhibrato, so this prehistoric civilization must be near the Strait of Zhibrato.

Zhao Zhongyao has always been a scientist who loves to pursue the truth. He never fully believed what the ancients said. Nor do I believe what any modern expert said. He has always liked to find the truth on his own.

In fact, for people in scientific research, what interests them most is the mysteries of nature. It is because they are attracted by the mysteries of nature that they will constantly search for truth.

What is truth, to put it plainly, is the truth of things. What scientists do is to find the truth about things. What philosophers do is also looking for the truth of things. But scientists and philosophers are also different when looking for the truth of things.

Scientists are looking for the concrete truth of things, that is to say, the research direction of scientists is very single. Especially some scientists who are also called experts. The topics they study may be very single topics.

For such experts, what they have said. Only in a certain field of their research can it be more reliable. They may also be ignorant of things that are not in their research field, or they may have little knowledge.

As for what the ancient sages said, we certainly can't believe them all. Especially these ancient philosophers and thinkers. They are not scientists. What they have said is often viewed from the perspective of philosophy.

The difference between philosophy and science is that they stand from different perspectives. Philosophy stands at a very high place, and what you see may be the whole nature. And science does not stand very high, it only sees the situation in a certain place in nature.

For ancient sages like Plato, we must believe that they are ancient thinkers, but we cannot compare them with modern scientists.

The ancient sages, at that time, were able to possess advanced ideas. It is because philosophy is something that can cross time and space and place. Whether it is ancient or modern, as long as you can want to understand the knowledge about nature, then you must understand some ideas about philosophy.

Philosophy is also a knowledge created by ancient sages to explain nature. Because at that time, people's technological level was very backward. There is no scientific explanation for many phenomena in nature.

And if you explain these natural phenomena from a theological point of view, it is obviously not very realistic, and it makes many knowledgeable people unbelievable. But for ordinary ordinary people in ancient times, due to lack of education, they did not learn cultural knowledge. Their understanding of nature can only be based on believing what some theologians say. What these theologians say is of course a myth.

Of course Zhao Zhongyao would not fully believe what the ancient sages said. Just like Plato said in the "Dialogue" that Atlantis may be in the Strait of Zhibrotuo. We just believe that it is possible, but we cannot fully believe the description in the "Dialogue".

Now Zhao Zhongyao and the others have been to the Zhibrotuo Strait and the southern waters of Cyprus, and they have not found any valuable clues.

Since no valuable clues were found in these two places, the place they are going to is of course the island of Crete.

Qu Yuqian has long heard that this island of Crete is a beautiful tourist destination. She heard Zhao Zhongyao say that their next stop was going to Crete, she told her daughter and said, ‘everyday, we’re going to Crete next stop. I heard that it is a very beautiful tourist destination. ’

Hearing what my mother said every day, she also smiled and asked, ‘mother, can we go to this island of Crete to play first? ’

After listening to her daughter, Qu Yuqian glanced at Zhao Zhongyao and said, ‘then you have to ask your father if he wants to take us to this tourist destination for sightseeing. ’

Hearing what my mom said every day, I looked at Zhao Zhongyao and said, ‘Dad, can we go to Crete first to play? ’

Zhao Zhongyao laughed after hearing what his daughter said, ‘of course we can go play. ’

Listening to it every day, I am very happy. But she still looked at Zhao Zhongyao puzzledly and asked, ‘Dad, aren’t we here to travel and explore! Why don't you look for Atlantis? I'm going to travel to Crete. ’

After hearing what his daughter said, Zhao Zhongyao said, ‘Of course we are going to find Atlantis. Just before we look for Atlantis, should we first understand some legends about this Atlantis civilization?

I believe that in Crete, we can see or hear something about Atlantis civilization. In this way, after we understand some legends in this area, it will be easier to find the remains of the Atlantis civilization. ’

‘Ok, let’s go to this island of Crete quickly! Hearing what my father said every day, he said happily.

Feifei had not spoken a while ago. After listening to the conversation between his father and sister, he looked at Zhao Zhongyao happily and said, ‘Dad, do you know this island of Crete very well! Can you tell us something about this island of Crete first. ’

After hearing what his son said, Zhao Zhongyao said, ‘Okay, let me tell you something about this island of Crete first. ’

After speaking, Zhao Zhongyao looked at Feifei again and said, ‘Crete is located in the middle of the eastern Mediterranean, the largest island in Greece, with a total area of ​​about 8,336 square kilometers and a population: about 601,000. Administratively, it belongs to the region of Crete. Crete is the southernmost crown of the Aegean Sea and is a beautiful holiday destination.

Located at the southern tip of the Mediterranean Sea, Crete is the largest island in the Aegean Sea. The African continent is only 300 km away. The island is about 260 kilometers long from east to west, 60 kilometers wide from north to south, and only 12 kilometers wide at the narrowest. It covers an area of ​​8,236 square kilometers. Crete is an island dominated by rugged mountains.

The Cretan Mountains, which form the east-west axis of the island, are divided into 4 mountain groups; the main peak Yiji Peak is 2,456 meters above sea level, which is the highest point on the island. There are several natural harbors and coastal plains on the gradually sloping northern coast. Major cities and ports such as Chania, Heraklion and Rethymnon are located in this area.

The Messara Plain stretches for about 29 kilometers along the central part of the southern part of the island and is the widest flat land on the island. The climate of the island: The flat land is also very warm in winter. There are 4 mountain ranges connected on the island. The top of the mountain above 2000 meters will be covered with snow in October.

Crete is the ancient cultural center of Greece and a famous tourist destination in the Mediterranean. The island has mountains and deep valleys, beautiful and rich scenery, as well as coasts composed of cliffs, rocky headlands and sandy beaches. The Mediterranean climate here is sunny and sunny, the plants are evergreen, olives, grapes, oranges, etc. are planted on the island, and flowers bloom everywhere.

The island is surrounded by vast expanse of blue waves, so it is known as the "sea garden". Crete is the fifth largest island in the entire Mediterranean, with a length of 260 kilometers from east to west and 50 kilometers from north to south. The island has three mountains over 2000 meters. In addition to the Minoan king building a labyrinth on the island to imprison bull monsters, the Minoan civilization on Crete opened up the chaos of Western civilization, even if it later faced the Greek civilization, Byzantium, Rome and Ottoman. The baptism of Turkish civilization, the Minoan civilization on Crete is still its most unforgettable page, and even the later powerful civilizations are based on it and integrate its spirit.

Heraklion is the capital and main port of Crete. It is the city with the fastest pace of life on Crete. It is also a hub of transportation and information development. Due to its location in the center of the island and its rich museum collections, Heraklion has become the best base for exploring Crete.

Crete is located in the Mediterranean Sea 130 kilometers south of mainland Greece. It is the largest island and ancient cultural center in Greece. Surrounded by blue waves, the island is mountainous, plants are evergreen, melons and fruits are everywhere, and flowers are in full bloom. The scenic island of Crete is known as the "Garden on the Sea". It is a famous tourist attraction in the Mediterranean region and the birthplace of ancient Aegean culture.

At the beginning of the 20th century, a palace of that time was excavated in Heraklion on the northern coastal plain of the island. In the center is a rectangular courtyard. The palaces of the kings and queens' palaces are distributed around the courtyard. The buildings are connected by corridors, entrance halls, complex roads, and stairs, with thousands of doors, like a labyrinth in ancient Greek mythology.

Crete is one of the birthplaces of Mediterranean civilization. Remains of Neolithic culture from 10000 BC to 3300 BC have been excavated here. According to legend, from about 2600 BC to 1125 BC, the famous Minoan culture emerged on the island, the art, architecture, and engineering technology were unprecedentedly prosperous, and a unified Minoan dynasty was established.

At the beginning of the 20th century, the site of the "Knossos Palace" was also unearthed in the northern part of the island. The site was large in scale, indistinctly consistent with the legendary labyrinth, and concentrated on the achievements of Cretan culture. It is built on the hill, with a rectangular courtyard in the center, surrounded by the king’s palace, queen’s quarters, religious double axe palace, storage rooms, warehouses, etc. There are corridors, entrance halls, double paths, and stairs between the buildings. Connected to each other, thousands of households, tortuous and accessible. Known as the "maze".

Various palaces and corridors are painted with magnificent and colorful murals, especially "The King with Lilies" is the most famous. There is a theater in the northwest corner of the palace, and the ruins of the royal villa and mausoleum are nearby. There are many other monuments on Crete, which add infinite charm to the island. ’

After Zhao Zhongyao talked about these things about the civilization of Crete, he looked at Feifei and said, ‘what kind of place do you think Crete is? Is it a place of very specific tourist value? ’

Feifei didn't say anything yet, so he rushed to say every day, ‘Dad, of course such a place is of great tourist value. Let’s go to Crete now! ’

It's just that Feifei doesn't seem to have much interest in traveling. After listening to his father, he said, ‘Dad, I feel that the most valuable thing on Crete is not a tourist resource. It should be a prehistoric relic on this island. We should look for evidence of the existence of Atlantis civilization from these prehistoric sites. ’

Feifei is a boy after all, and he doesn't have much interest in traveling itself. He is still more interested in the Atlantis civilization. Want to understand the truth of this Atlantis civilization.

Hearing Feifei’s words every day, I looked at Zhao Zhongyao and said, ‘Dad, if we travel to Crete, we can find clues about the existence of Atlantis civilization. Maybe, we traveled around and solved the truth about the existence of this Atlantis civilization! ’

After hearing what her sister said, Feifei smiled and said, ‘Sister, if you want to travel, just say go travel. Don’t say anything about the fact that the Atlantis civilization exists or not after a trip. That's so easy. If it were that easy, those who live on Crete, and those who have been to Crete, would have learned the truth about Atlantis civilization before long. ’

After hearing Feifei’s words, Zhao Zhongyao looked at Tiantian and said, “Your brother is right, things are so easy. If it is so easy, we don’t need to drive a flying saucer spacecraft here to find the truth. . ’

‘Dad, no matter what, since we have come to this island of Crete, should we travel and relax first? He looked at his father and said every day.

Qu Yuqian didn't say anything just now, and now looking at Zhao Zhongyao and saying, ‘Zhongyao, let’s go to the island to play first! Now that you are here, of course you should relax. ’

After hearing what his wife and daughter said, Zhao Zhongyao smiled and said, ‘Of course we are going to travel first. How to find Atlantis without traveling. Only when we travel first can we find some clues about the prehistoric civilization of Atlantis. ’
