Chapter 34: Precursors of an Earthquake

Through the past few days of practicing, An He feels that his sleep has improved significantly, and many of his previous hunger diseases have been cured. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It turned out that I was sleepy at noon, the upper eyelids and the lower eyelids were fighting, and I couldn't stop the desire to sleep with a toothpick, and I felt more energetic in the past two days, and I didn't have the slightest sleepiness at noon, but I had inexhaustible strength, lifting two buckets of water, and walking like flying.

The last time he went hunting in the barren mountains with Lin Yishan, when chasing an injured hare, he ran strangely and left Abudu behind.

One day, he pulled out the Tongxuan Sword from under the bed, and although the sword was still heavy, it could be waved with one hand. His myopia of more than 200 degrees is also completely cured, An He lay on the bed and watched a spider build a web on the roof beam, although it was more than two feet away, An He could see which filaments were spit out of the spider's mouth, and even a few legs of the spider were clearly visible. It seems that this move still needs to be practiced further.

In the past few days, when An He was practicing, he found that Abu had called several times in one night, and An He thought that there were thieves outside, and took advantage of the bright moonlight outside to go around the courtyard outside twice, but he didn't find anyone.

Instead, I found that the chickens that roosted on the branches of the peach trees every day did not fly to the branches, but cowered in a corner of the yard. A hen cooed incessantly, and even took a rooster in her mouth, and the hair on the head of a rooster was bald.

During the day, Abu became more manic, and while playing with Da Mao, he actually bit Da Mao.

Could it be that Abu is crazy? Seeing Abu like this, An He was very anxious, but there was no way to do it.

There were suddenly more rats in the house, and when they were sleeping at night, several rats actually scurried over from the bed of An He and Lin Yishan, which scared An He and Wow Wow.

At dawn, An He found several rats, ran out of the house one by one, and scurried into the yard without a trace.

In the sky, flocks of pigeons and crows flew overhead, and swarms of bees flew out of the hives and never returned, causing the bee people to panic.

Da Mao said that his sheep just don't go to the pen at night, so it is easy to rush into the pen, and a few of the larger sheep actually jumped out of the sheepfold and ran out of the yard.

The pigs in the pigsty have not eaten well for several days, and seeing the fat falling straight down, Da Mao's mother's heart is broken into dumpling filling.

When Anhe passed the Tuohe River, he actually picked up two carps with more than one pound of life on the bank.

They were still alive in their hands, apparently jumping out of the water on their own.

Anhe is very strange, it is understandable if one or two animals have abnormal conditions, but it is too abnormal for those who fly in the sky, run underground, and swim in the water.

What the hell is going on? An He couldn't figure it out.

Suddenly, a terrible thought appeared in Anhe's mind, and he remembered the earthquake common sense popularized by the teacher when he was in junior high school:

There are precursors in animals before the earthquake, and abnormalities should be reported if they are found.

Cattle, horses, mules and sheep do not enter the pen, pigs do not eat, and dogs bite indiscriminately.

The ducks don't go into the water to make trouble on the shore, and the chickens fly up the trees and cry loudly.

The icy and snowy snakes are dispatched, and the rats are moved and fled by dementia.

The rabbit jumped and bumped into the water, and the fish jumped in panic.

The bee colony is booming, and the pigeons are frightened and do not return to their nests. Oh no, this anomaly of animals is a precursor to an earthquake!

Thinking of this, An He was taken aback.

Earthquakes are rare in this plain! An He spent time on this plain before going to university, and there has not been an earthquake for more than ten years, could it be that an earthquake occurred in the Tang Dynasty?

An He thought that when he read "Zizhi Tongjian", it was recorded that in the first year of Yonghui of Tang Gaozong, there was an earthquake in a state, killing and injuring many people, and he forgot which state he forgot.

I suddenly remembered that the e-book I downloaded on my mobile phone contained "Zizhi Tongjian".

Hurry back home and take out the phone from the bag, the phone has been sitting for a long time and has long since died of power. Fortunately, the last time I was exploring in the cave, I asked Da Liu to buy a solar charger.

Anhe put the solar charger and mobile phone outside for more than an hour, and the mobile phone finally turned on.

Thankfully, the wormhole didn't damage the phone, and the dozens of e-books downloaded are still there.

Quickly searched in the mobile phone, and finally found a passage:

In August of the first year of Yonghui, the night and the earthquake were especially severe in Jinju, killing more than 5,000 people.

The Zizhi Tongjian records that the place where the earthquake occurred was Jinju, which is now Linfen, Shanxi.

At that time, when there were very few buildings and the population was extremely scattered, more than 5,000 people died at one time, and the magnitude of the earthquake at that time could be described as appalling.

But there is no record of earthquakes in Maozhou and Yongcheng County in the "Zizhi Tongjian"?

Ahn Hoa carefully scrutinized the above words: |Night, earthquake, especially in Jinju.

The word "yu" indicates that there were earthquakes in other places at that time, but not as strong as Jinju.

Why is there no record of earthquakes in other places?

An He speculated that Jinzhou was the land of the dragon of the Tang Dynasty, and it was also the fiefdom of the Son of Heaven Li Zhi when he was the king of Jin.

This phenomenon will certainly attract the attention of historians, and the Jinju earthquake will be recorded as a historical fact.

These documents were transmitted to the Song Dynasty, and Sima Guangcai, according to the records of his predecessors, recorded the earthquake in Jinzhou in the "Zizhi Tongjian", and ignored the earthquake in other places.

However, this is just Anhe's speculation, and there is no basis for it.

An He went to the well to fetch water, and saw that the water level in the well was obviously higher than before, and the water was constantly bubbling out.

After mixing the water, Anhe took a sip, which water had a slightly bitter taste, completely losing its original sweet and clear texture, which further confirmed the correctness of Anhe's prediction that an earthquake was about to occur.

An He asked Lin Yishan about today's date.

Lin Yishan said that it would be August in two more days, and the "Zizhi Tongjian" recorded that there was an earthquake on the night of August in August, that is, on the first day of August, and there were only two days left.

Time is running out, An He is still a young man with a conscience. I thought: Since I have come to Datang and know that a major earthquake will occur the day after tomorrow, I must not sit idly by.

He immediately went to the Yongcheng County Ya to find the county commander Liu Wenzhi, and lied that he had learned the art of stargazing from his master, and last night, he saw a comet falling in the direction of Jinju and Yongcheng County.

This indicates that there may be a major earthquake around Jinju and Yongseong Prefecture, and the intensity of the earthquake is unknown, so Liu Wenzhi hurried to report to the court.

Liu Wenzhi was shocked when he heard it.

Although he admired An He a lot, and knew that this young man was extremely talented, and his knowledge and intelligence were beyond the reach of ordinary teenagers, he still thought it was a bit sensational to hear An He say that there would be an earthquake around Jinju and Yongseong County.

There was no official letter from the Imperial Court Division Heavenly Supervisor saying that an earthquake was detected in the two places, how did you know that a teenager knew about it, and it was determined that there would be an earthquake in Jinju the day after tomorrow?

If this news is reported to the court just on the basis of An He's words, it will definitely arouse the great attention of Gaozhi and Li Zhi.

After all, Jinzhou is the land of Longxing of Gaozu Li Yuan, needless to say, it is also the place where his Li family and mountains arose, and it is also the fief of Li Zhi when he was the king of Jin.

If this news is true, it will be fine. If nothing happens anywhere the day after tomorrow, won't you commit the great crime of deceiving the king?

How can he destroy the nine clans, Liu Wenzhi will not report it no matter what.

An He was anxious:

"I know that my lord has some scruples, and I am willing to bear the responsibility alone, and when you write your book, you can explain that it is I who tell you that there will be an earthquake in Jinju and Yongseong, and if these two places are safe and sound the day after tomorrow, I am willing to accept the guilt alone."

Liu Wenzhi thought to himself: If I report to the court, and there is no earthquake in both places the day after tomorrow, how can I, as the county magistrate, only punish your crime and not implicate me?

However, he looked at An He's words and seemed to be very sure. I think that such a shrewd person would know the stakes of reporting this matter, who would make such a joke with his own life.

In addition, Liu Wenzhi is not an official who does not care about the life and death of the people, and only cares about his own life and wealth.

So he came up with a compromise method and wrote a letter to his cousin Yoo Seok about the upcoming earthquake in Jinju and Yongseong County.

Thinking that Liu Zheng has been in the officialdom for a long time, he will definitely not personally report this matter to Gaozong Li Zhi, and will definitely tell Li Zhi through Queen Wang, the two are husband and wife, even if there is no earthquake the day after tomorrow, it should be the private words of the husband and wife, and Gaozong Li Zhi will not be punished by Queen Wang because of this matter.

Yongcheng County was not too far from Chang'an, and the messenger rode a fast horse to deliver the letter to Liu Zheng, the secretary of the Zhongshu Ling, before dark.

An He didn't expect that it was this letter that hooked An He with Gaozong Li Zhi, laying the groundwork for him to start his journey to Chang'an later and make contributions.
