Liu Zhi is the only son in the family, the conditions of the family are not bad, so he has not suffered much since he was a child, his father is an archaeologist, often travels to various places, his mother is a retired engineer of the research institute, and he can't be idle after retirement, so Peking University is rehired to teach, and Liu Zhi himself is taking the postgraduate entrance examination, he likes history more, probably influenced by his father, so he is preparing for the graduate school entrance examination at the same time, but also in the university as a teaching assistant in the history department, which also helps him to consult more resources with the help of university library resources.

Everything is because of this compass, if it weren't for it, Liu Zhi would not have come to this world.

Liu Zhi put the compass in his hand and rubbed it, this compass is made of bronze, when his father handed it over to Liu Zhi, Liu Zhi was still very young, so he didn't remember if his father said anything, but vaguely remembered that his father seemed to say that this compass has a history of at least 2,000 years, because since the Han Dynasty, there are not many bronze utensils like this unearthed, and the text on the compass is the Chu script, which roughly sets the time of this compass to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, because after Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries, The writing of various countries was abolished, and since then, the writing of Chu has gradually disappeared in the wheel of history.

Liu Zhi put the compass on the table, the candlestick closer, in this era, although the candle has been invented by the Egyptians, but in the Han Dynasty China has not yet popularized, the main use of oil lamps and candle lamps, which will produce relatively large smoke after ignition, and because of the different fuels, sometimes when burning will also produce a pungent smell, so ordinary people, even if they can afford to use oil lamps, try not to use them.

Under the illumination of the light, this bronze compass is engraved with dense various symbols, arranged very neatly, but Liu Zhi does not know any of these words and symbols, and the structure of this compass is quite different from the compass created by Yang Gong in the Han Dynasty, so it cannot be analyzed with reference to the compass of the Han Dynasty.

However, Liu Zhi still found a strange phenomenon, that is, the hands of this compass will actually jump slightly, a bit similar to the clocks of later generations, which makes him very strange, he was inadvertently dialing the hands on it, which inadvertently led to the crossing, bringing himself back to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty from the world more than 2,000 years later, therefore, the mystery must be in the compass, but he does not know the mystery of this.

Liu Zhi knows a little about the compass structure of Yang Gong in the Han Dynasty, which is called "A, B, C, D, E, JI, G, XIN, REN, and Gui" called the ten heavenly stems, and "Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu, Hai" are called the twelve earthly branches, and the ten stems and twelve branches are matched in turn to form sixty basic units, and the two cooperate with each other in a fixed order to form the Ganzhi discipline.

Such discipline can be used to indicate directions, to record time, and later to be used in feng shui and other aspects.

He suddenly remembered one thing, that is, the Chinese calendar is calculated according to John Tang's sexagenary chronology, sixty years is a cycle, and the cycle repeats, so does it mean that this compass is also calculated according to the Jiazi year of the Xia calendar, and a Jiazi is sixty years, if this is true, the combination of the sexagenary and earthly branches on this compass represents this time, then doesn't it mean that he has the opportunity to travel to his era?

Liu Zhi began to get excited, if he could understand the words on this compass, did that mean that he could travel to any era at will?

If this is the case, then the Tang Dynasty, the Great Song Dynasty, the Mengyuan Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty, wouldn't he have the opportunity to experience it for himself?

This idea made Liu Zhi feel very excited, but he suddenly rang, the text on this compass is the Chu script, he doesn't know this thing, so he has to find other people to help, if the people of this era don't know the Chu script, then his situation will be miserable.

However, he is about to go to Xiangyang, which used to be the old land of the Chu State, so he may be able to find someone here who knows the Chu language.

Early the next morning, Liu Zhi and his party were dining at the inn, at this time two dusty students walked in from the outside, one was older, looking more than forty-five years old, and the other looked much younger, only about twenty years old, he was thin and handsome, and had a pair of clear and deep eyes, but his face revealed a sickly white, and at a glance he knew that this person was sick.

Liu Zhi just glanced at the two of them at first, and the two also found Liu Zhi and his party, Liu Zhi nodded to them from afar, and the older man saw Liu Zhi and them dressed as officers and soldiers, so he hurriedly got up and saluted back, but the young man didn't look at it, and shouted loudly at the store: "Xiao Er, quickly take out the strongest wine in the store, and then have two side dishes, the dishes can wait slowly, but the wine can't wait!" ”

When the older man saw him enter the inn, he ordered a drink and persuaded: "Fengxiao, you are not in good health, but the doctor said that you can't drink too much of this wine." ”

Liu Zhi was shocked, this person called the other party "Fengxiao", is this Fengxiao the ghost Guo Fengxiao?

He wasn't sure, so he didn't rush forward to bother, and after trying to confirm the identity of the other party, he was making a decision.

This young man is indeed a ghost Guo Jia, but he is still traveling all over the world at this time, and he has not yet wanted to run to the heroes of the world, so he is also taking advantage of the opportunity of his travel to go to the field to inquire about whether the character and ability of these people are worth going to go to himself.

The middle-aged man with him is also a very famous strategist in history, he is Cheng Yu, Cheng Yu is a member of Cao Cao's subordinates, and he is also one of the few strategists of the Three Kingdoms who can get a good death, Cheng Yu lived 79 years old in history, and in the era when the average age was only thirty or forty years old, he could be regarded as living a long time.

Cheng Yu is nearly fifty years old at this time, he worked in Yanzhou East County in his early years, the official position is not big, originally Cheng Yu didn't think much about it, just want to live this life with his duty, who knows that the Yellow Turban Uprising that broke out in the late Eastern Han Dynasty ravaged all over the country, Dong'a Di was sick and weak, although he resisted the attack of the Yellow Turban Army many times under his strategy, but then they were involved in the melee of the warlords, Cheng Yu had no choice but to return to his hometown in Yingchuan, ready to recuperate for a while, but was persuaded by Guo Jia to let him go out with him for the past year, Cheng Yu and Guo Jia have a very good relationship, and he himself is unwilling to do nothing like this, so he came out with Guo Jia, and their first stop was Yuan Shu in Nanyang.
