Chapter 3 – At The Scene, I Am The Apple (Please Collect It!!

Chapter 3 is on the scene, I am the apple (please collect it!)

In the 21st century where Xu Yun lives, even elementary school students have heard such a story:

Hundreds of years ago, one day Newton had a whim and ran under an apple tree to fantasize about life.

Then an apple hit him on the head with a slap, and this great physicist seemed to have been smashed through the two veins of Ren and Du, and proposed the law of universal gravitation.

For example, Trinity College, Cambridge University, still retains the dormitory where Newton lived when he was studying, and an apple tree can be seen through the window.

Cambridge claimed that this is the offspring of the famous apple that fell on Newton’s head-the John Bull Historical Society also designated that tree as one of the 100 famous trees.

But in fact, the place and process of this story are actually very controversial.

The current relatively mainstream opinion is that Newton thought of the law of universal gravitation when he was avoiding the plague in his hometown of Woolsthorpe, and he stayed under a chestnut tree with a high probability

Let’s imagine.

If our Grandfather Niubidun was really hit by a spiky chestnut on his **** curly hair

Then the law of universal gravitation was probably proposed in the hospital.

However, there are still some people who hold a clear opposition to this view.

For example, Stickley’s personal visit to Newton, the Gallic philosopher Voltaire, Newton’s assistant at the Royal Mint and his niece’s husband John Conduit, Newton’s niece Patton, Christopher Dawson, etc. Both claim that Newton himself mentioned the apple tree.

So many people confirmed this matter with each other, making the truth of the whole apple tree confusing.

So at present, a more objective judgment should be that Newton saw an apple fall when he was avoiding the plague in his hometown, but most of them were not hit on the head.

However, no matter how different local opinions are, Xu Yun really wants to say something forcefully at this time:

In the scene, the thing about Newton being hit by an apple is true, because I am the apple

Another question for help by the way:

The apple is too big, what should I do if it seems to knock Newton out? !

The young Isaac Newton felt his head was a little confused, the ground was hard, and there was a faint pain from behind.

About a year ago, a large-scale plague suddenly broke out in London.

The plague spread from London, the royal family of John Bull fled London, and the rich people in the city also fled with their families in a hurry.

Cambridge residents packed their luggage in carriages and evacuated to the countryside.

In the city of London, more than 10,000 houses were abandoned, some of which had their doors and windows nailed to death with pine boards, and the houses with patients were marked with crosses with red chalk.

Cambridge University not far from London was forced to suspend classes, the campus was closed, and teachers and students were evacuated to the countryside.

At this time, Newton, who had just obtained a bachelor’s degree, was forced to pull a cart of books and instruments back to his hometown farm in Lincolnshire to avoid the plague.

The farm in his hometown of Woolsthorpe is as quiet as a paradise, his mother warmly welcomes him, and the three half-brothers and sisters are more sensible than before. Well, I can’t make it up.

all in all.

Woolsthorpe is indeed quiet as if isolated from the world, but Newton’s family relationship is really not very good.

Before Newton was born, his father Isaac Sr. died of illness, leaving only his mother Hannah.

And when Newton was only 3 years old, Hannah decided to remarry someone else, and it was an old man who was about 30 years older than her – Nabas Smith.

Interestingly, Smith proposed in a very special way:

The two did not meet each other. He asked a servant to send a letter of marriage proposal to Hannah.

After family discussions, Hannah finally decided to leave 3-year-old Newton and move in with Smith.

Really *mother.

8 years later, Smith passed away, and 11-year-old Newton was taken into Hannah’s home. According to Hannah’s idea, Newton’s best growth direction in the future is to be a farmer.

If it wasn’t for the help of his uncle and the principal of the middle school, Newton would eventually become a fee-reduction student.

The current Newton can almost remove the word Dun.

Therefore, Newton, who returned to his hometown due to the epidemic, currently has a bad attitude towards his mother and younger siblings.

Early this morning, Newton quarreled with Hannah again because of plowing. When he was bored, he took a book and prepared to go behind a stone wall he often visited in the manor to do some math problems.

He discovered a simple way to expand the binomial into a series last year, but he got stuck at simplifying the binomial (P+PQ)^m/n.

Although there were vague thoughts in his heart, he couldn’t pierce the membrane no matter what, and the young Niuzi had a headache.

As a result, while walking, Newton suddenly noticed a faint sound from an apple tree not far away.

It was broad daylight, so Newton walked under the tree without any worries, intending to see if there were any small animals on it.

As a result, before I could raise my head, I felt something fall on my back, and then my vision went dark, and I completely lost consciousness.

Um? perception?

After realizing that he could clearly perceive body feedback, and his consciousness could also carry out normal thinking and recall, Newton immediately opened his eyes.

As soon as he raised his eyelids, he saw a man’s face.

This is a face that is somewhat different from the European appearance, with black hair and black pupils, and the facial lines are not as three-dimensional as Westerners, and are relatively graceful.

Here is one thing about popular science.

Due to special family reasons, Newton was often ridiculed by his classmates at school, and was even bullied many times.

There are only two ways for ordinary people to do this:

Either bear it silently, or go to the teacher to make a small report.

But Newton chose the third method—becoming a school bully and hurting each other.

So in terms of fighting, Newton is basically the champion of his peers, almost in Li Jingliang’s rank.

Combined with the rampant epidemic at this time, many people who fled have become unstable factors.

So after Newton came back to his senses, he didn’t pay attention to the full spirit of the man in front of him, nor did he savor the concerned eyes.

Instead, like muscle memory, he picked up a book beside him and threw it at the man in front of him.

This book is called “Holy Bible”. It is about five centimeters thick, with a gold-plated hard metal cover, and weighs .

1.56 kg.

So ever since.

There was only a slap, and Xu Yun fell down in response.
