Chapter 183: Snake Ghost Town, Astrolabe

Said that the third uncle took out two crumpled photos from his broken bag and handed it to me.
I know that these two photos must be taken from the dan furnace. These photos should be given to him by the foreigner. This matter is more complicated. Without these pictures, I am afraid I can't make it clear. Now he has used it on me.
After taking another look, I saw the first photo taken of a huge red hearth displayed in the museum. When the third uncle said it, I did n’t know that it was such a big thing. It is indeed an impossible task to smuggle such things abroad.
The second one is about the bottom of the Dan furnace. I saw a bronze furnace bottom covered with patterns. In the center of the furnace bottom, a fist-sized bronze beast was cast, with his head up to the sky, very powerful. As far as styling is concerned, it belongs to the top class.
"This is the red furnace restored in the museum, and the second one is the inside of the red furnace." The third uncle explained to me, "The furnace bottom mechanism found by Jielianhuan is a very clever water inlet for alchemy. At that time, add water to the Dan furnace, the furnace wall is hollow, there is water inside, as long as the lid of the Dan furnace is turned, and the figure above is turned to a certain position, you can open the machine underneath the Sky Beast, in the furnace wall The water will be sprayed from the mouth of Wangtian Beast. In this way, during alchemy, there is no need to open the furnace cover. "
I nodded my head, but this kind of organ skill is actually not special in China. Why is this organ the key to unlocking the Warring States silk script?
Sanshu said that the problem was not the function of this institution, but the way of operation of the institution. When he said it, he took out a magnifying glass and let me take a closer look at the pattern on the bottom of this furnace.
The picture is very small. When I look closely, I can see that there are many small relief points around the bottom of the furnace, centered on the looking beast. There are many, many dense spots.
"Is this?" I still didn't understand and asked.
"You don't know it's justified, the relief on the bottom of the furnace is an ancient star map."
"Ancient Star Map?" I froze for a moment, "Is the map that shows the position of stars in the sky?"
The uncle nodded, and took a graphic photo translated from the Warring States silk script for comparison: "This is the most ingenious part of this institution. The bottom of the furnace is an ancient star map. When the furnace cover is turned to the correct angle, the furnace cover is put on The curve on this graph will coincide with the six stars in the star chart under the furnace, and the mechanism can be opened. "
When I heard it, I immediately thought of something, and then I suddenly realized: "The two figures can overlap. So, the strange lines on the silk books of the Warring States Period are actually a" star chart "?"
Sanshu nodded: "Yes."
The astrolabe is a tool for stargazing, because there are tens of thousands of stars in the sky, and it moves according to the changes of time and seasons. It is very difficult to find out the specific ones from so many stars every time. Something like the astrolabe. Generally, the lines are connected according to the arrangement of stars and stars. As long as the Big Dipper on the astrolabe is aligned, you can rotate the astrolabe with the compass and the scale of the season. Those specific lines will match the few stars you are looking for. coincide.
I couldn't help filming, I'm sorry, it's not hard to think about, why didn't I think of it just now. This is also very logical. Astrology in the Warring States period was very developed, and people of that era believed that the movement of astronomical phenomena represented the movement of everything in the event, and some insights could be gained from it. These heavenly planes often herald changes in the country, major wars and catastrophes, and generally cannot be leaked at will. It is also reasonable for Tie Miansheng to hide the star charts he observes in the silk script.
This star chart also appeared on the Dan furnace at the same time. Perhaps this astronomical sign represents a special meaning, which made many people notice it at the time, which is also very possible.
The third uncle nodded: "Your boy has grown up, and he is right. After these things were transported to the United States, Jude Kao immediately discovered the secret. Like you, he thought of stargazing."
This is a very exciting discovery. It can be said that this is the first time in the history of archaeology, Jude Kao is famous again. However, at this time, he no longer cares, he has been completely addicted to the process of archaeology: what is the meaning of the astrology circled by the astrolabe? Judging from how closely it is hidden, this astrological sign clearly indicates something extraordinary that cannot be known by others.
After overlapping the star chart and the astrolabe, he found out the specific six stars from the whole star chart, synthesized the star chart, and then checked the ancient book information, wondering what this star chart represents in stargazing What means.
However, ancient Chinese astrology is almost the same genre as Feng Shui. It is extremely complex and even more esoteric than Feng Shui. There is almost no systematic information. The star map hidden in the silk books of the Warring States Period indicates what kind of astronomy is impossible to find.
At that time, the only way to unlock this secret was to go to the so-called masters, but this time I couldn't find it in the United States. So Judeco again asked to unravel the chain and go to China to find people.
However, this time the unlinking failed to complete the task. Those who knew Zhou Yi Feng Shui in that era were sent to the bullpen. Those who missed the net were trembling and no one spoke. The sound of playing was also sneaky, which was very inconvenient.
This search took two years, with no results, and no other research in the United States has made any progress.
In desperation, Judeco had a sudden whimsy again, and his attention was once again focused on the silk books of the Warring States Period. He speculates that since there is this star chart on the silk book, then in other pages, there will be secret records of the star chart.
So, while he began to buy Lu Huangbo in China, he had the idea of ​​selling the grandfather of the Warring States silk. According to his experience, Tufuzi generally do not go thieves. This silk script cannot be a single volume. Grandpa wants to steal it. It must be the whole one. The remaining part may still be in Grandpa's hands.
At that time, the relationship between Jielianhuan and Judekao was already very good. If the wolf had a bad heart, he helped Judeka get the news from Grandpa. It is a pity that my grandfather's tone is very tight, and he can't ask anything, but in desperation, Jielian again asks the third uncle. At that time, Uncle San was interested in the records in Grandpa's notes. When he drank the wine and talked a lot, he told the story of Grandpa's stolen story from the Warring States period.
When I heard this, I could n’t help but say,
Sir, do you dare to love the foreigner who knew about the blood tomb? Did you say it yourself?

The third uncle smiled bitterly and shook his head. "I drank too much at that time. I couldn't remember talking to him once the wine was over. Later, the foreigner talked to me before I remembered it. My intestines are regretful. . "
I also accompany him with a bitter smile, which is really too dramatic, but then, Jude Kao chose to solve the chain at that time, maybe I already knew the relationship between the Wu family and the Jie family, and I already had this level of intention. The mystery of this foreigner's actions is really frightening.
After Judeka got the news at that time, he had plans to re-dig the blood corpse, but unfortunately, he would not be able to fight the chain, and he could not find anyone else. At that time, Sino-US relations began to pick up. He felt that the situation would change, so he waited patiently for a while, and it really made him wait for an opportunity. He then returned to China with a group of archaeologists and began planning this operation. So there was what the uncle had experienced before.
Guess what happened afterwards. After the third uncle escaped from the tomb that night, Jude Kao also entered the tomb in the afternoon of the next day. Needless to say, this incident turned into a disaster in the end. When they opened the dark grid at the bottom of the coffin, the flying kings almost killed all the people in the tomb.
Also suffered from the fact that one of the guys he found at the time was very clever, that is, when he was most dangerous, he exploded the explosive and completely collapsed the inner chamber. At that time, Judeco in the outer chamber was able to save life. It's a pity that he and a man were all buried in the ancient tomb.
At that time, the scene was extremely horrible. Judeka, who had witnessed it, was greatly hit. He was almost insane. His understanding of China for decades has completely collapsed. After returning to Changsha, he immediately returned to the United States. He was seriously ill and almost mad. The research on the silk books of the Warring States Period was immediately terminated.
However, we know that this is only temporary. One year later, the second marine archaeological era is coming, and the wheel of fate begins to move under the sea surface of Xisha, and it turns faster and faster.
