Chapter 103 Push the back chart and measure the celestial phenomena
Suddenly, Shirley Yang pointed to the sky.
"Is that the Thirty-six Tiangang you are talking about?"
The two of them looked in the direction she was pointing.
I saw stars dotting the top of the tomb, like a galaxy in motion, moving in a specific direction.
"That's...the Big Dipper constellation!"
Hu Bayi was shocked.
"How on earth was this done? He was able to create a constellation map in this tomb chamber, and it was also able to move and flicker. Isn't Li Chunfeng so awesome?"
Thirty-six Tiangang is the name of the star god, which originated from ancient people's natural worship of the stars.
Taoism believes that there are 36 Tiangang stars in the Big Dipper constellation, and each Tiangang star has a divine general who is responsible for protecting the safety of the heavenly palace and the immortals.
Jiang Hua frowned and thought.
What is the use of this armillary sphere?
What is the connection between the constellation chart on the top of the tomb and the armillary sphere?
Also, are the 36 tombs in the surrounding areas corresponding to the thirty-six Tiangang stars in the constellation chart?
How are they going to crack the mechanism in this tomb?
Doubts arose in everyone's minds.
Shirley Yang speculated: "I think only one of the tombs around here is real, and all the others are traps."
"As long as we open the wrong tomb, we are likely to encounter a crisis."
Jiang Hua nodded, "Well, that makes sense."
"The question is, how do we find the correct tomb?"
Shirley Yang said: "Let's go take a look at the murals around here. Maybe there may be some answers there."
Jiang Hua and Hu Ba nodded.
Come to the murals in the surrounding tombs.
At the door of each tomb chamber, there is a painted mural. The characters depicted on it are lifelike, which can make people clearly understand the meaning of the mural.
"This is the costume of a fifth-grade civil servant in the Tang Dynasty. It seems that the one I should be talking about is Li Chunfeng."
Li Chunfeng was appointed as Taishi Ling.
It is the fifth rank official position.
The fat man also came over and asked curiously: "What is painted on this mural?"
Shirley Yang pondered for a while and said: "Li Chunfeng once served as the Taishi Ling. The Taishi Ling is almost the same as a historian. They both record what happened in ancient times."
"This mural depicts Li Chunfeng compiling a history book for the emperor."
People were constantly moving around the surrounding murals.
While walking, they studied these murals. Everyone slowly walked to a mural...
Seeing the content on this mural, Shirley Yang was shocked.
"Look at this mural."
"What's wrong?" The fat man was startled.
"On this mural, Li Chunfeng is holding a piece of tortoise shell in his hand."
"Jiang Hua, do you think this piece of tortoise shell looks like the Dragon Bone Book?"
"Dragon Bone Book?"
Everyone's eyes lit up.
The reason why they entered this ancient tomb.
The most important reason is to obtain the Dragon Bone Book.
Unexpectedly, there are clues on this mural.
Jiang Hua also looked carefully.
Not to mention, the words on that tortoise shell are very similar to Shirley Yang's.
It seems that this is indeed the Dragon Bone Book.
However, this mural does not indicate where the Dragon Bone Book is.
But at least it can be proven that Li Chunfeng once really had a dragon bone book.
They came to the right place this time!
Everyone came to the next mural.
This is a strange mural.
Weird figures are carved on the stone wall.
It looks out of place with other painted murals.
The fat man was stunned for a moment, "Why does this mural feel different from the others?"
Shirley Yang fell into deep thought.
She frowned, as if the content on the mural seemed vaguely familiar.
Suddenly, her body shook.
A look of astonishment appeared on his face, and he immediately said with great joy.
"This is a push-back picture!"
"Pushing back picture?" The fat man was stunned, "What is pushing back picture?"
Both Hu Bayi and Jiang Hua looked shocked.
Obviously everyone has heard of the name Tuibeitu.
"It is said that "Tui Bei Tu" was created during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty by Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, who ordered Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang to predict the fate of the Tang Dynasty."
"The Tuibei diagram arranges the symbols according to the names of the sixty-four hexagrams of the Book of Changes. They are matched according to the heavenly stems and branches. They cycle through the order of Jiazi and Yichou. There are sixty-four symbols in total, which predict prosperity and chaos in future generations."
< br>
"However, some of the content of the Tuibei Tutu has been lost since it was passed down to the present day, and this is obviously the complete Tuibei Tutu, with a total of sixty-four images!"
After hearing this, Fatty lost any interest.
For him, it is impossible to exchange money.
What's the use of this push-back chart?
Shirley Yang was obviously very excited. She took out a camera and took pictures carefully.
If this picture of push-back were spread, it would definitely arouse the excitement of historians.
Its value cannot simply be measured by money.
Jiang Hua was thoughtful. He carefully looked at the portrait on the Tubei Tutu. He always felt that this Tubei Tutu was a little weird.
But he couldn't say it. There was a vague feeling in his heart that this back-pushing diagram should have other uses, but they didn't know it yet.
Jiang Hua took a deep breath and stared at the push-back diagram carefully, as if he wanted to record all the patterns on it one by one.
But for now, this push-back chart is indeed of little use.
The next picture is the scene where Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang jointly compiled "Tui Bei Tu".
Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang are both very famous in ancient Chinese history.
And the push-back chart they jointly compiled is definitely not that simple.
When we get here, we have finished viewing the murals.
But everyone still hasn't found the mechanism to crack the tomb.
Jiang Hua frowned, what should he do next?
He came to the armillary sphere and observed it carefully.
The armillary sphere is composed of the armillary sphere and the armillary image. The armillary sphere is the guide rails that make up the armillary sphere, including the ecliptic ring, the horizon ring, the meridian ring, the sextile, the ecliptic ring, the inner equatorial ring, the right ascension ring, etc.
The Hunxiang is the name of each constellation.
By rotating the armillary sphere, the corresponding celestial phenomena are measured.
This armillary sphere occupies a very important significance in ancient astronomy.
Jiang Hua was thoughtful. He looked at the armillary sphere in front of him and had some guesses in his mind.
The mechanism of this tomb must be inseparable from the armillary sphere. If you want to crack the mechanism, you must turn the armillary sphere so that it gets stuck in the right position.
But since it is an agency, they must not act randomly. They must find a pattern, otherwise the agency will kill them all.
"What is the pattern...?"
Jiang Hua touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
Suddenly, the entire tomb began to shake.
Everyone was shocked.
Hu Ba suddenly looked in the direction of the fat man.
I saw the fat man standing next to the Dragon Bone Heavenly Book mural, standing there a little at a loss, with a trace of confusion on his face.
"Fat man, what are you doing?"
Hu Bayi took a look and knew that the changes in the tomb must have been caused by the fat man.
"Huh?"
The fat man said in confusion: "I didn't move anything."
"I just touched the Dragon Bone Book mural, and that's it..."
Hu Bayi said angrily: "Fat man, can you change your bad habits? Don't want to touch everything you see."
The next moment, the surroundings of the tomb were still trembling.
The statues of strange beasts on the surrounding stone pillars suddenly spat out silver liquid from their mouths, and a disgusting stench spread over them.
Jiang Hua and Shirley Yang's expressions changed.
"No, this is mercury!"
"Old Hu, fat man, put on your gas mask quickly, this mercury vapor is highly toxic!"
Jiang Hua hurriedly took out the gas mask from the storage space and put it on his head in time.
"What do we do now?"
"Do you want to leave here first?"
Shirley Yang asked anxiously.
But the next moment.
Bang!
There was a loud noise from the door, and the stone door hit the ground and closed immediately.
"Damn it, Li Chunfeng is such a bastard, he is so cruel, he wants us all to die here and be buried with him!" The fat man couldn't help but curse.
Lao Hu said angrily: "Isn't that why you tampered with things?"
The fat man said aggrievedly; "Then I didn't know that I touched the mural and actually touched the mechanism in the tomb?"
Jiang Hua said in a deep voice, "Don't worry about that for now. We must quickly clear the trap, otherwise the mercury will flow more and more, and we will be drowned in the mercury."
"That's right, and if we stay in a mercury environment for a long time, our skin will also absorb mercury vapor, causing poisoning reactions." Shirley Yang also added.
"Then let's quickly find a solution now!"
The fat man shouted hurriedly.
He didn't want to die in here.
And Jiang Hua said to Hu Bayi: "Old Hu, if you want to crack the mechanism of this tomb, the two of us must cooperate."
"Well, Jiang Hua, tell me what to do, and I will cooperate with you." Hu Bayi nodded solemnly.
Jiang Hua pointed to the star chart above and said: "There must be some inexplicable connection between this star chart and Hun Tianyi."
"After Fatty touched the mechanism just now, I noticed that the star chart above seemed to be activated and began to rotate counterclockwise."
"So I speculate that if you want to crack this mechanism, you must make the star map go to a specific orbit, and this armillary sphere should be the controller that controls the star map."
"I will turn the armillary sphere later, and Lao Hu, come and observe the changes in the star chart to see what orbit it will take before this mechanism can stop."
"Well, I will definitely try my best."
Lao Hu nodded seriously to Jiang Hua.
Without saying a word, Jiang Hua came to the armillary sphere, took a deep breath, looked at the star patterns on the orbit, and reached out to turn it.
Kaka——
The armillary sphere kept making noises, and while it was rotating, the star chart above was also changing.
Lao Hu is constantly observing the changes in the stars.
Shirley Yang and Fatty on the side were also looking at the star map nervously.
See changes in your astrological chart.
The fat man said excitedly: "Haha, the star chart has rotated clockwise. Has the mechanism been cracked?"
Shirley Yang was speechless and said: "Fat man, you think too well."
"This star chart cannot be broken by turning it clockwise."
"You have touched the mechanism, and you can't stop now unless we can find the correct tomb door."
"Huh?"
The fat man was a little dumbfounded.
He really thought this astrology chart was simple!
Which of these 36 doors is the real one?
