Chapter 102: The Ruler of the Earth

The shadow of the sun appeared on the pointer, Yu Zai and Dayi watched like this, the first light was projected, and from this moment on, the years of the mountains and seas had life.

Dayi's expression was very solemn and serious, he felt that this was a very remarkable thing, Tugui and Sundial, the two things seem to be similar, but in fact, Tugui is far less accurate than Sundial.

And this facility is inherently sacred.

"Measure the years of heaven and earth, and correct the ceremonies of the world. ”

Dayi suddenly said to Yu Zai that he wanted to write these two sentences under the base of a new, uncarved, real stone sundial.

"This is something that should be passed down through the ages. ”

The dial that takes time is used as a basis for longitude measurement.

"I'm not going to leave here today, I need to record the time table of the first day of the mango seed, and of course, when the shadow of the sun reaches its highest point....."

Yu Zai's words were not finished, and Dayi said: "That time has not yet come." ”

Yu Zai wondered: "Sheng, do you know too?"

Dayi smiled: "Zai, don't underestimate the wisdom of the Central Plains, I know that the time in your mouth must be the intersection of solar terms, and although the Central Plains has no solar terms, it is clearly written on the Yellow Emperor's calendar." ”

"According to the current time, the highest point of the sun shadow you mentioned should be the same time as the Yellow Emperor in ancient times, and you made the twenty-four solar terms according to the old calendar, and that time is called-"

Dayi and Yu Zai spoke almost at the same time, and said in unison: "Summer solstice!"

The wooden staff rested on the ground, held by a tall old man, his hair tied up, his face thin and weather-beaten. There is a snakeskin wrapped around his waist, and several small bags are hung on the side, bulging and not knowing what to put in them, with a long white beard, and a large lotus leaf in his left hand.

He crossed the mountains and mountains, and finally came to the foot of the Tianbi Mountain today.

Tianbi Mountain, the Southern Great Wilderness is not called it, its fixed head branch, near the South China Sea, the people of the Southern Great Wilderness call it Rongtianling.

This mountain is the boundary between the wilderness plains, mountain basins, rivers and lakes south of the Great River, and the real Lingnan Mountains and Ten Thousand Mountains.

Heavy clouds can't pass over this mountain, and vast lightning strikes won't fall into the southern soil, of course, there will be occasional thunderstorms, but I don't know which unlucky guy is lying nonsense again.

"That's it!"

The tall old man smiled and spoke to the other old man beside him.

The second old man was reflected in the gaze of the insects of ten thousand trees, the light of the sun and the moon.

"I'm sorry you've spared such a big circle. ”

The tall old man thanked the second old man, and this old man was wearing clothes similar to those of the Central Plains, dark color, two eyes were bright, vigorous, hard face, and his hair was scattered, not like a tall old man.

On his shoulders stood a bird with three heads, pecking at each other.

"I went to the Beihu clan to ask for the fur, and I went to Dishan to see the tomb of the emperor, and when I came back, I had to pass through here, but it was not a spare road. ”

The second old man responded: "To go to Jingshan, you must cross the Rongtian Ridge, instead of going to the northwest to climb the mountain, it is better to pass through the Chaisang clan, the plains and wilderness are always easier to walk than the mountains and mountains." ”

On his shoulder, the three-headed bird chirped, as if echoing the old man's words.

"Now that we have passed Tianbi Mountain, one of you and I will continue to go to the Central Plains, and the other will go northwest, and we will really part ways.....

The tall old man smiled: "Chigong! ”

The second old man also smiled: "Uncle Xi! ”

Yes, the future is promising, the years are looking forward to, I hope you will be free of illness and disaster, and live a long life.

This should be the best goodbye.

The two old men said goodbye to each other and sincerely hoped to see each other again, but they both knew that it was almost unlikely.

Uncle Xi knew that this time he left to go to the Central Plains, and if he went back again, I was afraid that time was running out.

He is already in his seventies, how many more years can he live?

And the red pine nut can live for a long time, he has lived for eight hundred years, and should not mind living another eight hundred years.

"This goes.... There's no turning back. ”

Uncle Xi was deeply moved in the direction where Chi Songzi left, and Chi Songzi responded in the distance, and he began to sing, singing in a very melodious tone, and a little surging, it was a poem called "Pei".

"The northwest direction is the area of Chaisang Mountain, and I want to pass through Xun Mountain, through Yan Zhize, to reach the river, after crossing the river, it is the Central Plains. ”

β€”β€”β€”β€”

After the two old men parted ways, Uncle Xi continued to go north, and Chi Songzi went to the northwest, his feet were not slow, and the three birds on his shoulders were chattering and arguing, one of the birds said that he wanted to eat some salt soil, and after this sentence came out, the three heads actually agreed at the same time, and did not continue to quarrel.

By the way, this bird is from the mountains and is called "πͺΊπ©Ώ§ (chang, fu)".

"Salt?haha, this is what I want to take to the West Queen Mother's family, and some of it is going to be put back in the stone room of Jingshan, you are so gluttonous, you also want to eat this treasure salt!"

The red pine nut reprimanded the three-headed bird, and the three-headed bird chattered and complained of bitterness.

Follow you guy, go south and north, there is no merit and hard work, we forced Lai Lai all the way is easy for us! I listened to this radio broadcast for more than half a year, and I didn't even give me some precious salt!

The three-headed bird expressed its displeasure, and then flapped its wings and flew away from the shoulder of the red pine nut.

"Well, get some salt yourself!

The red pine nut did not pull out a hair, and encouraged the three-headed bird to fly out to find it by itself, and the angry three bird heads scolded in the sky, and it flew to the northwest, but after about half a day, when the red pine nut was resting by the stream, it flew back, and its expression was half surprised, half frightened.

"Tweet!"

The three-headed bird and the red pine nut explained the situation, there was a mountain in front of them, the road had been closed by boulders, and it seemed that it was man-made or animalistic.

It saw that the Terrans were mining rock salt around, but it was all scattered and defective, and the best goods were in that mountain.

The three-headed bird said that the best salt in it is no less than the Nanhai treasure salt in the pocket of the red pine nut.

"Is it so good?"

The red pine nut was a little surprised, but the three-headed bird said that in the closed mountain, there was a very powerful ground... No, it's definitely a mountain beast!

"What does it look like?"

Red pine nuts asked casually, but the three-headed bird was greedy and wanted the beautiful salt inside.

"Tweet!"

According to the three-headed bird, in the Great Salt Mountain, the mountain beast is a huge red fox with seven tails.

Uncle Xi walked to a ruin, where there were obvious traces of tribal life, but now it is dilapidated, and it seems to have been artificially destroyed.

He picked up a wooden plaque, which was still intact, with a twisted font that should be a child's handwriting.

"Ganpan's ......"

He looked at Tianbi Mountain, the distance of this mountain, which was even more towering and magnificent, but also sunken into a part, there seemed to be some unsightly evil spirit.

Uncle Xi stopped here for a long time, this place was almost completely destroyed, he collected some things, recorded the situation here, and then continued north.

He walked for many days.

Then he saw a new land.
