Mo Tianya also has an older sister at home - Mo Shaoling, Mo Shaoling only did business in the family group after graduating from university, although she is also the heir of the Mo family's broken dragon's palm, but she is very concerned about business matters.

Evening, Shenzhen, Mojia. Mo Shaoling is at her desk to handle today's bills.

"Miss, the young master called, gave an address, and said that please send someone to bring money over at noon tomorrow." Steward Liu walked in and said.

Mo Shaoling raised her head and looked at the things handed over by Steward Liu: "Didn't he follow Mr. Liu's grandson to carry out the mission?" How could you suddenly ask for so much money? ”

After a farce, everyone got along very well at dinner.

White leaves are the least educated here, but they are the key protection objects! Who can have the young master of the Mo family personally protect him when he comes out to carry out the mission?

Bai Ye looked at the photos that Tashi took out, all of which were things about the heritage of the Northwest people collected in the past two years. Bai Ye looked at a large round stone with an iron rod stuck in the middle, this is what they call a sundial!

"Tashi, Dongge, is this sundial really as precious as you say? Now you can find a craftsman to make one out of stone! "Although I heard everyone talk about the preciousness of this sundial for a long time today, Bai Ye still doesn't understand.

He Tao felt very strange: "Xiao Ye, didn't you say you wanted to keep this thing today?" ”

"I have some special feelings, but I really don't know why this thing is worth so much money."

He Chaoqun became a commentator again: "Okay, since everyone is interested, then I will make an axe and introduce to you the crystallization of the wisdom of our ancients - the sundial!"

Sundial instrument, also known as sundial, is an instrument for observing the time of the sun's shadow, mainly according to the position of the sun's shadow, to specify the hour or tick at that time, and is a more commonly used timekeeping instrument in ancient China.

However, there are few records in the historical books, and the earliest record in the historical materials is the section of "Hanshu, Legal Calendar, and Han Calendar": Taishi Ling Sima Qian suggested that "it is to determine the thing, the main sundial, and the next inscription is missing", and the "Hanshu Art and Literature Chronicle" lists 34 volumes of the sundial book, but only the title of the book remains, and the content cannot be verified.

This sundial, in fact, there are many kinds, and now everyone recognizes these 8 kinds: horizontal sundials, equatorial sundials, polar sundials, south-facing vertical sundials, east or west vertical sundials, inverted vertical sundials, projection sundials, and weekday sundials.

These different sundials have their own applicable regions, such as where we are here, the latitude and longitude of Yumen Pass is: 40°21′12.7" north latitude, 93°51′50.8" east longitude. It belongs to the mid-latitudes, and the sundial you see today is the south-facing vertical sundial. ”

He Chaoqun output a lot of geography knowledge at once, Tashi, Dongge and Song Zisu are no problem, and I don't know if they understand Mo Tianya's wooden face, but Bai Ye and He Tao didn't understand it at all! One of these two people has read little, and the other has not read!

He Tao was about to fall asleep when he heard this, and hurriedly interrupted: "Wait a while, Chaoqun, you have been talking for a long time, where is the value of this sundial?" ”

Tashi, who was on the side, looked at the two of them and almost laughed: "Okay, Brother Chaoqun, don't bombard the two of them with this expertise." Let me tell you. ”

It turns out that this sundial is not the same as an ordinary sundial, which is why those foreigners take a fancy to it and insist on buying it.

When Tashi first arrived, he found out if the group would come to the village to see the sundial, or in the dead of night. Because the rural people go to bed early and don't go out at home when it's dark, they don't notice it when they come several times in a row.

But the careful Tashi found an anomaly, if it was to steal something, a sundial, there was nothing to steal, but for a few days they didn't act, but here they studied this thing over and over again, Tashi found out that something was wrong, so the group of foreigners studied at night, and Tashi studied during the day.

Tashi is a Tibetan, and although it is not a Tibetan settlement, there are many Tibetans. So Tashi knew a little bit about Tibetan Buddhism.

There was a heavy rain in the back, and after the sundial was wet, Tashi saw several strange runes on the back of the sundial, which were very similar to some of the scriptures he saw in the Buddhist temple during his previous trip to Tibet!

Tashi was keenly aware that the sundial might be very unusual, so he explained his discovery to He Lao, hoping that an expert would come to see it, and kept preventing the villagers from selling the sundial.

"I see, this time Daddy asked us to come here, and nine times out of ten, he also wanted us to take a look at this sundial, right?" After He Chaoqun knew what was going on, he also remembered that He Lao was indeed studying some historical materials about sundials a few years ago.

Tashi nodded, obviously He Chaoqun's guess was correct, even if this farce didn't happen today, Tashi would take everyone to see the sundial: "That's right, the teacher did tell me that this time you came, I would take you to see the sundial by the way." ”

Hearing Tashi say the rune, Bai Ye's eyes lit up! He immediately asked, "Brother Tashi, what does that rune you said look like?" ”

Tashi heard that Bai Ye was curious about the runes, so he turned back to the room and found a few photos: "Na, that's it, I don't know what it is, I don't care if I don't understand it." ”

Bai Ye took the photo in Tashi's hand, and his heart trembled at the first sight! This rune is exactly the same as the one on my bell! If what I saw in Qingcheng Mountain before was just similar, then this one is exactly the same!

Mo Tianya saw Bai Ye's expression change, worried that something was wrong: "What's wrong?" Where is it uncomfortable? ”

Bai Ye knew that the fewer people who knew about this matter, the better, and even his grandfather Bai Ye didn't explain it, so he lied by the way and spent Mo Tianya.

"Tianya, will you accompany me to the toilet? There's no light outside, I'm afraid of the dark. "Obviously, Bai Ye won't lie, when he was in Qingcheng Mountain, he had experienced how dark it was, would he be afraid?

"Okay."

After coming out, Bai Ye said to Mo Tianya: "That rune is exactly the same as the bell in my hand!" ”

There is such a coincidence!

Mo Tianyazai carefully looked at the bell in Bai Ye's hand, and after a long time, he said, "According to my experience, your bell is your magic weapon, and the rune on it should be some kind of spell." ”

Incantations? Who would engrave a spell on a sundial? The ancients also relied on mathematical calculations to calculate time, and most of them were ordinary people, even if it was the end of the law era, there were not many people who had the ability to do such things as Baiye Mo Tianya, but in ancient times, not everyone could, and He Chaoqun also said that the calculation time of the sundial depends on sunlight and calculation!

Mo Tianya looked at Bai Ye: "Xiao Ye, I'm afraid this is a game." ”
