Chapter 270 Seeing the Strength of Qin through Smallness
Husuo walked to the microscope and pretended to look at it carefully to see if he had been tampered with by the Qin people.
Although the Qin people had just operated this microscopic mirror under their noses, who knows if the Qin people had done anything to manipulate it.
Just after his inspection, he couldn't see anything. Of course, this is probably because the Qin people are clever and he can't see it.
The slide he examined most carefully was the slide. After confirming that nothing could be seen from above, Husuo followed Qin Ren's action just now and moved to the eyepiece to take a look.
Suddenly, Husuo felt that his field of vision seemed to be enlarged a little, and a picture he had never seen before appeared in his eyes. It seemed to be a piece of water, but was water like this?
There were many debris and unknown suspended debris, some of which looked like grass whiskers, and some of which looked like tiny grains of sand. The most terrifying thing was that there were living things inside, right in his field of vision. squirming.
The shape of the living creature was different from the tigers, wolves, chickens and dogs he knew. The shape was less regular and had no fur. It looked like a shrunken river shrimp or a peeled leech. Husuo, a man who was not afraid of the sky, the earth, or the people of Qin, had goosebumps all over his body.
If these living creatures crawled on them and squirmed on them...
But Husuo didn't believe what he saw. This might be the trick of the Qin people to scare them deliberately. , make them afraid, so as to force them to agree to the conditions.
Tu Sui on the side smiled and said: "If leader Husuo doesn't believe it, you can move the glass slide slightly. Everything you see is on the glass slide. If the glass slide moves, the things you see will move. Just don't move past it." Otherwise, once you leave the observation range, you won’t be able to see anything.”
This is a way to prove it. Another Qin man on the side handed over a tweezers and asked him to use this thing to move the glass slide. .
Husuo took the tweezers and operated them according to Tu Sui's instructions. As expected, the picture he saw changed accordingly, which also proved that what he saw was on the glass slide.
During Husuo's observation, Tu Sui acted as the commentator: "The glass slide is also made of Zhulin, and there is nothing on it. Leader Husuo found that what he saw was actually water dripping on the glass slide. Thing. If your Majesty and you still don’t believe it, I think we have done something wrong. There is water taken from other places here, and I can show it to you later.”
It turns out that the people of Qin went out to the city to get water from the surrounding water sources these days. , it’s good to show them today.
The purpose of the Qin people is not difficult to guess. They probably want to give them a show of strength, but this show of force is quite special. At the same time, they may also want to tell them that the Qin Dynasty is far more powerful than they think. It does not need to show war, and it can be shown from the smallest details.
But King Xiou and the leaders still did not believe Tu Sui’s words. King Xiou waved to an attendant and gave a few instructions. Soon, the attendant returned with several people, each holding a clay pot.
The King of Xiou pointed to the pottery pot held by the attendant and said to Tu Sui: "Since the microscopic mirror can see tiny things, can you see if there are any tiny things in it?"
Tu Sui knew very well what King Xiou was thinking. He didn't just think that they might have tampered with the water samples used for observation and asked people to get the water themselves.
Tu Sui didn't care about this kind of distrust and vigilance: "The king wants to see it, it's all right!"
This time the mission came with personnel who specialized in operating microscopes. They took the clay pots, took water samples from them, made observation samples, and adjusted the microscopes...
After some operations, Tu Sui looked at Xiou The king said: "Your Majesty wants to know if there are any tiny things. Now you can With a look."
Starting with Husuo, King Xiou came in person this time. He moved his eyes closer to the eyepiece as Husuo did when observing, and immediately had a similar feeling to Husuo. Just because the water samples are different, the pictures you see are different. But this does not prevent the king of Xiou from knowing one thing. They have always believed that there is something in the clear and clean water.
When I think of the squirming living things that look like insects but not insects, I drank them into my stomach every day, and he has lived for so many years, and I don’t know how much he drank...< br>
King Xiou also had goosebumps on his body.
“Come and have a look too!”
So a very interesting scene appeared in the palace hall of Western Europe. A group of ancient people wearing ancient costumes gathered around a microscope to observe.
After taking a look at the water samples taken by King Xiou, King Xiou and the leaders didn’t look very good. Anyone suddenly knew that he had drunk a lot of bugs into his stomach. Those bugs still don’t know where they are. Whatever's going on in my stomach, I won't be in a happy mood.
One leader asked: "What is this tiny thing? Why is it so tiny and still surviving in the water?"
Tu Sui smiled and said: "Actually, the tiny things you see are not the 'tiny things' that Mr. Li Nian said. These are insects and water plants in the water, and they cannot be called tiny!"
The naked eye can't see them. If you can't see it, you need to use a microscope to see it. If this isn't small, then what is small?
The King of Xiou and the leaders also noticed that Tu Sui once again mentioned the young master Li Nian. They also knew a little about Li Nian, but they all got it from the neighboring Qin area, which may not be accurate.
I heard that Tu Sui mentioned Master Li Nian many times. He should have a very high status and great influence in the Qin Dynasty. Could it be that this bastard asked the Qin people to blackmail them with the method of treating malaria?
Having never met Li Nian, King Xiou and the leaders had a bad impression of Li Nian in their hearts.
"According to Mr. Li Nian, the tiny things in the world can be roughly classified into three categories: viruses, bacteria, and fungi. Human diseases are mostly related to the three, and they are even more tiny than what you have just seen."
I have never heard of this concept at all, but this Qin envoy does not seem to be lying, but the more he is like this, the more unhappy everyone in Xiou will be.
Because this shows that the gap between them and Da Qin is too big. What the other party said has reached a level that they cannot understand, as if an elephant is telling a story to an ant.
I didn’t expect that the Qin people would develop to this extent without knowing it. Then would they still hide here and remain in isolation? If we don't go outside to know what the Qin people have become, when the Qin people become extremely strong and can break through the dangers of the mountains and forests, will they still have a way to survive?
The King of Xiou and the leaders felt that only at this moment did they truly understand the intention of the Qin people to show them the microscope and let them see tiny things.
Directly displaying military strength is a kind of display, but showing the huge gap in the understanding of the world between the two sides is not the same.
The people of Qin let them know that there is a cure for malaria, not only to blackmail them, but also to tell them one thing: your miasma is of no use to us and can no longer be yours What a danger!
They originally wanted to live a closed country and not deal with Qin in the north, but now, this plan seems to be unworkable.
Concentrating his thoughts, King Xiou said: "How do they cause diseases? And how to solve them? Cholera and malaria are also caused by them?"
