Chapter 146: Gathering Moon and Remnant Stars "Asking for a Monthly Pass"
"I really didn't lie to you. It's not a deliberate procrastination of anything, either. It's the so-called 'when it's time', and I don't know when it will be. Noticing the confused gazes of the three of them looking at him, Professor Hu smiled bitterly and spread his hands: "You should also know that I am an archaeologist. ”
"What archaeologists." Seeing Zhang Yang's gaze at him, Xue Li pursed her lips and snorted disdainfully: "It's not just a tomb robber with an official license. ”
"You are not allowed to insult my professional surname!" , Professor Hu, who was originally dying and old, heard Xue Li's words, and shouted at Xue Li like a fried hedgehog: "The footprints of history are buried under the earth. What I do is to turn out the once forgotten civilization bit by bit. ”
"Aung La, Aung La, archaeologist." , waved his hand, probably not wanting to argue with Professor Hu on this issue, Xue Liden urged: "What does this have to do with whether it is time or not." ”
Sighing coldly, Professor Hu stood up slowly, glanced at the light of the torch that was faintly approaching the four of them in the direction where he came before, and said, "Will you talk about it later?" ”
Subconsciously glanced at Zhang Yang, and saw that although Zhang Yang did not speak, he was obviously standing on the same front as herself, Xue Li couldn't help but move in her heart.
With a stiff expression, Xue Li suddenly pretended to be 'if you don't say it, we won't leave', and snorted coldly: "Just say it here!" ”
"Haven't you always wondered why they're looking for me?" , glanced at Bi Ren, who faintly wanted to leave quickly, but noticed Bi Ren's attitude that he couldn't count on at all, Professor Hu sighed helplessly and said, "Decades ago, this place already existed. I guess the people who are still alive here are the ones who have been here for the longest time. That's why I'm sure to know something you don't know. ”
"Leave? I don't know if I'll ever be able to get out of here. However, if there is a way to leave, that is the only one! Glancing at the eyes of the three of them, at this moment, even Bi Ren, who was trembling before, looked at Professor Hu's gaze, and it was irrepressibly hot.
"Over the years, whether anyone has left here, I don't know. But I know that twenty years ago, someone might have left here. Of course, it's only possible ......", as if remembering some past that he didn't want to recall, Professor Hu sighed violently: "But the more likely thing is that they are all dead." ”
"I don't know what the purpose of getting us here is. But faintly, there are secrets in this place. Maybe this secret is what got us here. Sensing Xue Li's obviously more and more unkind gaze, Professor Hu shook off the irrelevant emotion in his mouth, and said the key point: "About 2,200 years ago, that is, the Qin Dynasty at that time. There was a rare 'Remnant Moon' once! ”
"The Remnant of the Moon?" , frowned, for Professor Hu's words, Xue Li couldn't help but let out a murmur full of surprise and confusion.
"Yes! An incredible astronomical phenomenon! Even now, there are no experts, professors who believe in the existence of such celestial phenomena. If it weren't for ......", gritting his teeth, probably because he decided not to spit out something real, Xue Li would not give up easily, Professor Hu pondered for a while, and continued: "If it weren't for the fact that I had been there and seen the record of the mural with my own eyes, I would not have believed that such an incredible astronomical phenomenon would have appeared. But even so, I was still not very sure that such a celestial phenomenon really existed. ”
"What kind of astronomical phenomenon is the remnant of the moon?" Although it is not clear that what Professor Hu said has a relationship with the 'time', it is probably Professor Hu's words that arouse curiosity, and Zhang Yang can't help but feel a kind of curiosity in his heart at this time.
"Huh! The moon and the remnant star are just the name given by the words on the mural. From my own point of view, it is not much different from the current name of an astronomical phenomenon. A self-deprecating color hung on his cheeks, Professor Hu hesitated for a moment, and said coldly: "Have you seen the annular eclipse?" Even if you haven't seen it, you should have heard of it! ”
"You mean, the remnant star of the moon is called an annular eclipse?" , I don't know if it's the reason why I'm particularly interested in this topic, Bi Ren, who was trembling before, looked at Professor Hu with burning eyes.
didn't care about Bi Ren's burning gaze, Professor Hu sneered: "If it's an annular eclipse, I won't always be uncertain about the context." Because, that's not an annular eclipse at all! It's an annular lunar eclipse! ”
"Impossible!" , Interrupting Professor Hu's words suddenly, Bi Ren said excitedly: "The diameter of the earth is 4 times that of the moon, even in the orbit of the moon, the diameter of the earth's umbra is still 2.5 times that of the moon, much larger than the moon, blocking the sun, the length of the earth's umbra is about 3.5 times the average distance between the moon and the earth, and the diameter of the moon is much smaller than the diameter of the earth, so it is impossible to form an annular lunar eclipse." ”
Noticing Bi Ren's words, Zhang Yang's eyes froze, and he couldn't help but glance at Bi Ren. And at this moment, Zhang Yang's slightly squinted eyes flashed thoughtfully.
"Huh! Oh, yes! It is absolutely impossible to form an annular lunar eclipse. So, that's what I find incredible. It's also the reason I can't be sure. Not caring about Bi Ren's interruption, Professor Hu shook his head and said with a wry smile: "I am an archaeologist, not a heavenly family. I can't explain this unbelievable phenomenon at all. Perhaps there are celestial bodies that defy common sense, transcending the principles of existing scientific understanding, ignoring the gravitational pull of the earth and passing between the two. Maybe it's some other inexplicable reason, in short, although it can't be understood, it's not necessarily impossible to appear! ”
"It's because I don't know if this so-called Convergence Moon Remnant Star will really appear. It is unclear when it will appear. That's why I can't say exactly when the so-called 'then' is. Glancing at the brightness of the closer and closer torches in the direction he came, Professor Hu couldn't help but urge: "Can you leave first?" I'll talk about that later. ”
"The mural you just said? Could it be in the middle of this primeval forest? Ignoring Professor Hu's statement that he was in such a hurry to leave, Zhang Yang looked at Professor Hu with his eyes.
Hearing Zhang Yang's inquiry, although he expected it, Professor Hu couldn't help but smile bitterly. Seeing Zhang Yang's gaze still staring at him, Professor Hu nodded helplessly after a while: "That's right!" It's in the middle of this primeval forest. ”
Silently exchanged glances with Xue Li, Zhang Yang looked at the bright light of the large torches that were indeed getting closer and closer in the direction of the time, and suddenly picked up Professor Hu: "Take us over to see the mural in your mouth." (To be continued.) )
