Chapter 1295: Small ancient machine

While Lin Chi returned to the safe house with him, the master of engineering and a digging squad led by him also arrived at the forest where the remains were discovered under the protection of the soldiers.
"Is it here?"
Gazing at the pattern of the sickle hammer that is faintly visible on the wall, the middle-aged man standing in the face of a good-looking man, reaching out and touching the pattern he had never seen before, whispered his own speculation:

Is this... the agricultural product warehouse?

He had previously carried out excavations of ancient ruins, and found some strange metal and glass objects from it. After some research, he could not figure out what those things were, and he could only temporarily put them aside.
However, from the order sent by the lord, it seems that it is very important to look at this ruin, requiring immediate excavation to create an entrance that can lead to underground ruins.
"Starting work." The master of the project said coldly.
The workers who had just transferred from the canal quickly entered the state and began to dig up the dirt at the entrance to the underground remains.
The shovel in their hands quickly hit a solid metal "wall", and the workers cleaned the gravel from it, and a tight, dark metal door appeared in front of them.

Do agricultural product warehouses need this level of protection?

With the foot stepped on the indestructible metal door, the master looked at the gap in the center of the metal door and ordered the workers to open it.
The workers began to use the shovel to try to open the metal door, and they all used their strength. The woodland echoed the shouting that was easy to think about:
"Uh……"
"what……"
"Well, ah!"
These dark-skinned workers, all of them were flushed and blue, but they tried hard, and the door did not show any signs of opening.
"No, no."
Realizing that these workers couldn't open the ruins, the masters were looking for other possible entrances, but they were attracted by the pile of debris at their feet.
Among the soil dug by the workers, a man who had already turned into a white bone was revealed. The master of the project bent down and pulled the hand out of the soil. He only heard the bang and the fragile bones broke directly.
"What is this... what?"
Looking at the metal band worn on the wrist of the white bone, and a small disc-shaped object, the engineering master frowned, took the thing off the bone, and wiped off the dust carefully.
What appears below the circular glass is a disc with a number of thin lines arranged, three different sizes of pointers, each pointing to a different position.
"Ok……"
Staring at the objects I have never seen before, the master of engineering is immersed in contemplation.
- There are rumors of various advanced technologies hidden in ancient ruins, and he has heard of them. While the old lord was still alive, the master had led the workers to dig up some underground ruins.
However, the ancient props found in the ruins are all beyond his understanding. The things I found this time are no exception.
- Is it used to indicate direction?
Looking at the "disc" worn on the wrist in his hand, the engineering master was puzzled. It can only be temporarily put into the pocket and continue to issue orders to the workers:
"Open the soil before dark, there are ancient relics inside, remember to be light, don't break it directly."
"Yes!" The workers nodded immediately.
When the workers began to rest, the master of engineering also sat on a piece of rock that was still flat, and looked up through the gap between the trees to stare into the sky.
From the perspective of the sun, the time should be approaching noon, and there should be some time away from the dark.
The tool for measuring the time in Yanfeng City is a circular slab with a wooden stick inserted in the center. There are several scales on the slate. As long as the slate is placed in the sun, the position of the shadow of the wooden stick can be used to calculate time.
- However, when it comes to time measurement tools...
The engineering master who had just picked up the "metal disc" suddenly thought of something, slammed out the ancient relic from his pocket, staring at the thin line with the scale on the disc and three pointers.

Is this... used to measure time?

Thinking of this, the master's eyes, which were originally slightly stunned, suddenly slid round, and the right hand holding the disc began to tremble slightly.
This unclear equipment seems to be a bit like the current time measurement tool, and it is not a simplified version, but a thoroughly enhanced version.
Such a small pointer obviously does not show the time by the shadow. It is noticed that the pointer is mounted on the top of the disc, and the small metal shaft is connected below. The master immediately realizes that the pointer should be movable.
"Measure time by moving... I understand..."
Realizing that he seemed to understand the essential use of this thing, the master of engineering had always had a serious expression and finally stretched out, his face showing a smile because of excitement:
He has been unable to analyze the use of ancient relics, but at this time he suddenly opened up and seems to have begun to approach the origin of this equipment!
Although the length of the day is not fixed, there are always rules to follow - the daytime will become very long when the weather is hot, and the night will be longer when it is cold.
The way this device measures time may be to quantify the time of day by rotating the pointer at the same frequency.
If this is the case, the scale on the disc should be an indicator to quantify the time!
"one two Three……"
The engineering master quickly counted the twelve large scales on the disc and the small scales in each large scale. He stared at the dial intently, and the smile on his face became more and more "crazy."
"hahahahahahahahahaha!"
The first time I heard this person’s heart-wrenching laughter, the workers who were licking potatoes in the distance, all cast a strange look.
The master of the project holds the round metal object, and the smile on his face can rival the fierce sun. The whole person seems to be burning, turning to the horse parked outside the jungle.

Where are you going?
a worker asked aloud.
"I went back to the lord." The engineering master laughed and replied: "I want him to increase his investment in us, because this discovery is absolutely unprecedented."
"What the is that?" Another bearded worker next to him, staring in confusion, staring at the metal in his master's hands.
"Hahaha, you said this?"
The master craftsman looked down at the disc he was holding in his hand, and the voice suddenly became smaller. It was a mysterious pause for a while, and finally slowly said:
"You may be scared when you say it, I found the ancient 'time machine'!"
