Chapter 197 Some people die at the age of 80 and are only buried at the age of [-]

Nick Flamel suddenly stretched out his cane, and a wand flew out of his coffin. He waved the wand casually, and the words on the tombstone "Don't be sad for my departure, I died at the right time" gradually Replaced by another sentence - I really want to live another 500 years.

Lockhart had some expectations for Nick Flamel's current reaction. Scientific research shows that modern people may be exposed to more information in one day than an ancient person in a lifetime.

And most of the time, the development of technology explodes in an exponential form. From 2000 BC, until the first industrial revolution, the human way of life has hardly changed at all.

In modern times, if a person is separated from society for ten years, his basic understanding of the world may be completely divorced from reality.

Lockhart read some news in his previous life. Some prisoners were locked in prison for ten years. After they were released, they would not use smartphones.

Although Nicole Flamel just died not long ago, in terms of the year of birth, the education he received, and the cultural atmosphere in which he grew up, Nicole Flamel is undoubtedly an ancient person. His cognition of the world is in many ways Still stay with ancient times.

Roman Rolland's book "John Christopher" said that some people died at the age of 20 and were not buried until they were 80.

Most people's thoughts and habits in many aspects have been stereotyped when they are around 20 years old, especially for wizards in the magical world who lack change and communication.

Once they pass this age, they only change their own shadows; the rest of their lives are nothing but imitations of themselves, repeating what the truly human age said, did, thought, and liked, day by day. The repetition, and the way of repetition is more and more mechanical, more and more out of the box.

This sentence is also applicable to Nick Flamel, but it needs to be slightly modified.Some people die at 80, only to be buried at [-].

To be honest, Lockhart still has certain doubts about whether Nick Flamel has really mastered the secret of the Philosopher's Stone, and this doubt is not unreasonable.

You must know that Nick Flamel, as a person who lived nearly seven hundred years old, has he achieved anything in his life other than creating the Philosopher's Stone that can turn stones into gold and immortality before he is old?

The Twelve Uses of Dragon's Blood, researched with Dumbledore?
Lockhart suspects that this kind of thesis will not be passed as an undergraduate graduation thesis in a Muggle university. It is a simple summary of experience without any in-depth research. achieved.

Although Lockhart was standing on the shoulders of many scientists in the Muggle world and despised the research results of Nick Flamel and Dumbledore, it did not hinder the cooperation between Nick Flamel and Dumbledore Academic papers are really of average value.

In other words, the academic value of the academic research achievements of most wizards in the entire magic world is low, and wizards in the magic world tend to learn by themselves and work behind closed doors in terms of academic research.

There is nothing systematic about Newt Scamander's magical beasts, Dumbledore and Nicole Flamel's dragon's blood, Bagshot's history of magic, or even the dark arts of many dark wizards.

The establishment of an academic research system is a very effective academic research method that has been used since the ancient Greek mathematician Euclid from the book "Elements of Geometry".

Lockhart watched Nick Flamel change the text on his tombstone, and he didn't rush to ask Nick Flamel about how to make the Philosopher's Stone, but talked about establishing an academic system.

The so-called knife sharpening is not a woodcutter. Nick Flamel has such a great reputation and has lived for nearly 700 years, but he has never taught any student to make them also make the Philosopher's Stone. From this point of view, Nick Flamel Not a good teacher.

Lockhart decided to first let Nick Flame learn about some more effective methods of teaching and doing research in modern education and academia, and let Nick Flame first establish a simple academic system by himself, and then start a systematic Learn from Nick Flamel.

So Lockhart said to Nick Flamel: "Mr. Nick Flamel, I think you have already understood the earth-shaking changes that have taken place in the wizarding world in just three months, and next I want to make it clear to you, reasons for these changes."

"Oh? Wow? Nick Flamel made a surprised expression and said, you are one of the few wizards in the 600 years since I made the Philosopher's Stone who didn't directly ask how the Philosopher's Stone was made after seeing me. "Nick Flamel said with a tone of exclamation.

Lockhart smiled and replied: "I have to say, it's not that I'm not interested in your immortality or your superb skills of turning stones into gold, but that I think some things are more important than them."

Immediately afterwards, Lockhart simply took out a copy of "The Elements of Geometry" and handed it to Nick Flamel, and then began to introduce the contents of the "Elements of Geometry".

Lockhart likes to start with "Elementary Geometry" to help wizards like Nick Flamel, who do not have any modern and efficient academic qualities, understand the importance of establishing a system of academic research.

First of all, although "Elements of Geometry" is a work on mathematics, his mathematics knowledge is relatively simple and common sense, even wizards who have not studied mathematics much will not be unable to understand the content of the book.

Moreover, "Elements of Geometry" includes mathematical knowledge, but it is definitely not limited to mathematical knowledge. It has a very strong sense of form and deduces the craft of deduction to the extreme.

It has a very strong sense of form, and deduces the research method of deduction to the extreme.

The underlying setting of "Elementary Geometry" is five axioms, which we can regard as virtual, but this virtual possibility is proved to be correct just after touching the flat world.

Based on these five axioms, Euclid then deduced and proved 467 mathematical theorems. The proofs of every theorem in "Elements of Geometry" all start from the five most basic axioms and the theorems derived from subsequent reasoning.

It is truly possible to say a single point of a piece of material, and not to say a single point of the material that exceeds the need, which makes the world of "Elements of Geometry" look extremely simple, elegant, and clear!
And the result of this simplicity, elegance, and clarity is efficiency.

It is said that there is a sign outside the gate of Plato's Academy that reads "Do not enter this school if you do not understand geometry". Lockhart also has such plans. A wizard who has not established an academic system and no one recognizes that the academic system is important should not start directly. effective research.
