Sun Zhongyuan suddenly raised his head and also looked at Kuang Xiyin, and the two shouted out in unison!
"Ganshi Star Sutra!"

Gande, a native of Chu during the Warring States Period (one said Qi State), the year of birth and death is unknown. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Famous astronomer, to date, the world's oldest star catalog, compiled by him. Jupiter's moon, Europa, was also the first to be discovered by him.
You know, this was more than 2,000 years ago, and the conditions were very backward and simple.
Gander's most important masterpiece is the eight volumes of the Astrology. Because he, in addition to being an astronomer, was also an astrologer, he combined astronomy and astrology and had a huge impact on later generations.
Gander, the founder of the Gan school of astrology.
Shi Shen, a native of Wei during the Warring States Period, also known as Shi Shen's father, was also born and died in an unknown year, and was also an astronomer and astrologer.
Shi Shen once systematically observed the operation laws of the five planets of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, and at the same time, he also determined the positions of more than 100 stars and named them. These data were widely used by later astronomers.
In other words, the Chinese names of some of the stars that are still in use today are likely to be named by Shi Shen more than 2,000 years ago.
On the far side of the moon, there is a crater, which is called Shishen.
Shi Shen's representative work is the eight volumes of "Astronomy".
Later generations picked up the missing and filled in the gaps, combining the eight volumes of Gander's "Astrology" with the eight volumes of Shi Shen's "Astronomy", which was known as "Ganshi Xingjing" in history.
"Ganshi Xingjing" is known as the world's earliest astronomical work, but now it is incomplete, and there are only two volumes in total!

"Inside, it's the complete Ganshi Star Sutra!" Sun Zhongyuan finally understood, in another tomb, it was Gander who was buried, and the two bird seals on the door were the word "astronomical"! In this tomb, Shi Shen was buried, and the two tadpole inscriptions on the door were the word "astronomy"!
However, although it is impossible to infer the specific year of birth and death of the two according to historical data, generally speaking, Shi Shen is later than Gander, and at the same time, there are more people who hold the theory that Gander is a native of Qi.
However, through this strange tomb, it shows that the time difference between the two people's deaths is not too far, and it is more likely that Gander was from the Chu State!
At the same time, it is still difficult to conclude whether these two people know each other, but at the very least, there are people who know these two people at the same time, and they have a close relationship, and it is very likely that they have studied with the two of them!
It's the master who set up the tomb!
"The Ganshi Star Sutra has seen the light of day again, but it cannot be widely publicized. Kuang Xiyin sighed deeply, "The importance of this tomb is on the two bronze coffins, once it is destroyed, the consequences are unimaginable!"
Kuang Xiyin's meaning, Sun Zhongyuan understood very well, if the Ganshi Star Sutra was announced, this tomb would not be saved. If it is fully excavated, it is inevitable that the bronze coffin will be destroyed and even removed from the tomb. However, this tomb has five elements on the ground, and it responds to the heavenly phenomena, and if it is disturbed, I really don't know what will happen!
Therefore, the discovery of the complete "Ganshi Star Sutra" cannot be said.
"The other person who came in before us must have understood this, so he didn't move anything, repaired the hole, and quietly retreated. Sun Zhongyuan said, "In this way, there should be nothing else in this tomb except for two bronze coffins, and eight astrological and astronomical chapters carved respectively." ā
Kuang Xiyin nodded, "Yes, take a good photo, let's go up and think about it in the long run." ā
Sun Zhongyuan suddenly seemed to remember something, walked into the passage with an emergency light, and said as he walked, "This person buried the two astronomical masters like this, and also set up a 'five-star alignment' mechanism, will this passage have any deep meaning?"
When Kuang Xiyin heard this, his face also changed, and he hurriedly followed.
Sun Zhong originally shone carefully at one side of the wall, but as a result, there was a new discovery!
On this wall, there is a group of figures engraved!
The largest, dominant figure in the middle, was somewhat similar to the bronze instrument they had gotten from the table!
It's just that this graph is relatively simple. Moreover, the thin piece of the circle on the bronze instrument is four pieces that can be put together into a circle, but the figure carved on this wall is a complete circle.
On the left side of this main figure, there is a complete disc figure that has been "dismantled", and there is also a pattern on it, as if it is a hidden ornamentation, but there is one of them, I don't know if it was not carved when it was engraved, or if the wall was broken and peeled off, and a very small piece was missing, and I don't know if there was any ornamentation in this position; if there is, then it is impossible to know what it is.
On the right side of this main figure, a simple four-elephant pattern is drawn: the green dragon, the white tiger, the vermilion bird, and the Xuanwu, outlined with dots and thin lines.
Sun Zhongyuan and Kuang Xiyin stared at this set of figures, dumbfounded.
It was Sun Zhongyuan who came back to his senses first, and turned to the wall on the other side, and there was something on this wall!
Writing!
However, there are only a few vertical columns, which are the golden inscriptions in the big seal. Although Sun Zhongyuan struggled a little, he basically recognized it.
"The second master of Ganshi, has taught me the way of the stars, my way is pure, mixed with the strange, the earth is observed, and the machine is gradually approaching, which is related to the common people. Life has an end, and I am afraid that I am incomprehensible. Go to Xi, the only instrument of the volt, respectfully say 'Star Hunting', help. ā
Of course, there is no punctuation for lettering.
The meaning of this sentence is not difficult to understand. Obviously, the person who left the message was the one who set up the tomb.
He said: Gan De and Shi Shen have taught me the skills of astrological horoscopes, but the things I want to pursue and learn are very miscellaneous, not only astrological horoscopes.
Although the things I study are complicated, I can make new discoveries because of it. Combined with the earth's qi, I discovered a major mystery, and this major mystery is related to the common people in the world.
People have a lifespan, and I am afraid that when I leave, I may not be able to solve this mystery. Still, I can leave an instrument behind. In order to express my reverence for the astronomy and astrology of the two masters, I named this instrument "Celestial Star Hunting". This instrument will help future generations to unravel this great mystery that I have discovered.
"Star Hunting?" Sun Zhongyuan and Kuang Xiyin looked at each other.
The man did not leave his name or say what the great mystery was. I'm in trouble!" Kuang Xiyin couldn't help but light a cigarette at this time, "However, the bronze instrument we got from the banquet seems to be an upgraded version of this Celestial Star Hunt!"
Sun Zhongyuan also lit a cigarette and took three deep puffs before he spoke, "Uncle Tiger, did you find it, not only this Heavenly Star Hunt." This is a set of three figures on the wall, all like this!"
