In front of the sundial, Yuzai's shoulders were already wet with dew.
"When the day is long, the shadow of the sun is short. When it reaches the end, it is the extreme, so it is called the summer solstice."
The shadow of the pointer will reach the highest point of the year today.
I don’t know when Akamatsuko appeared. Of course, as one of the people most interested in sundials, he would never miss this opportunity to measure.
He stared at Yu Zai and also paid attention to the changes in Sun Ying.
The reason why he stared at Yu Zai was because Chi Songzi felt that the aura on Yu Zai was getting stronger and stronger.
The summer solstice is the peak of the sun, and Chi Songzi is going to talk to Yu Zai about the Qi Refiner.
He prepared for many days, and of course he would not say his real name casually. In fact, the pseudonym Qiao Song will be used in future generations, because there will also be an immortal named "Prince Qiao" and Wang Chi who are also called Chi Songzi. They are collectively called "Qiao Song" in the immortal world.
Of course, I don’t know why Prince Qiao, who was born later, was ranked in front of Chisongzi... I don’t know. There is also a theory that Prince Qiao and Wang Ziye were confused...
Ruzai will stay here all day today and cannot leave. All matters in the tribe will be handed over to the clan leader. Of course, today is the summer solstice, Chifang has no world, and Nanqiu is peaceful.
The tribe is now on the right track of recovery, development and construction, and many things have entered a stage of accumulation and increase. In fact, there are very few things to do at this stage, just continue to wait. If you want to expand production, then you need to get good tools. There must be some, but there are not many copper mines here. They are scattered and have no integrated scale, and most of them are inferior copper. This is fine, but there is a piece of hematite in the east of Chaisang Mountain, but it is too far away from Nanqiu. And cannot send many people to mine...
This is different from the rock salt that can be moved away after a few knocks. The piece of hematite may be high-grade divine iron. The increase in solidity will drive the surrounding rocks to become harder, so the difficulty of mining will rise in a straight line.
If there is iron... Of course, with the iron ox's eating speed, iron smelting will definitely not be able to keep up with production, but fortunately it can eat the iron for better high-precision processing. If the divine iron is eaten Lose.....
"If you can refine steel, you can exchange shotguns for cannons..."
But this was just a thought. According to Tieniu's eating and pulling speed, he didn't say anything.
Ruanzai was staring at the sundial, and at this moment, Chi Songzi suddenly stretched out a hand and placed it next to him.
With the palm of his hand upward, the Qi flowing between heaven and earth began to gather, as if cumulonimbus clouds formed out of thin air in his palm. Yu Zai looked at Chisongzi in surprise: "Qi Refiner?"
"Um."
Chi Songzi clenched her fist, and the cumulonimbus cloud disappeared without a trace.
"Your aura does not have a predetermined trajectory, and you are also a person with the talent of a Qi Refiner."
Chisongzi: "I have been observing you for many days, and finally I have confirmed that today is the summer solstice. Your breath is high. Summer food is positive, and what you eat is "sun-centered energy".
This is what Dayi once mentioned to Yu Zai. The qi that the qi masters refine is selective. In spring, the qi is yellow when the sun rises. In autumn, it is the red and yellow qi when the sun is setting. In winter, the qi is in the north. In the middle of the night, there is Qi in the sun when the summer eclipse is Zhengyang in the south, as well as the profound Qi of the sky and the yellow Qi of the earth.
"Qi originally comes from clouds, and is led into ordinary qi. It can only be seen when clouds rise. It accumulates and moves, which is the breath of heaven and earth."
Chisongzi: "Those who can refine Qi can live forever."
Yu Zai looked at Chi Songzi and suddenly asked: "Qiao Song, how long have you lived?"
Chisongzi subconsciously wanted to hit eight hundred, but he held it back forcibly and said: "Eight...eighty!"
Yu Zai looked at him: "You really don't look like an eighty-year-old person."
Chisongzi murmured in her heart, of course I don't look like that, otherwise that girl wouldn't have chased me back then. I think back then I was also a handsome young man from all over the Central Plains.
"If you want to learn, I can teach you."
Chisongzi avoided the topic of longevity, which was easy to slip up: "I'm not telling you, it's really rare for a wizard to have a Qi Refiner. There is often not even one among thousands of tribes. This talent is... Very rare..."
This is indeed not nonsense. There are only so many ancient immortals who have left their names. Although there is a collective name for the Ten Immortals, there are not really only ten people. For example, Bai Zigao who likes outdoor sports and climbs rocks and trees, and Tian Yuan who likes to play chess. Chijiang Ziyu and Guangchengzi who were refining swords in the Kongtong Mountains were all ancient Qi practitioners. Of course, the last two among the Ten Immortals could not be Laozi and Wenshi in this era.
Yu Zai smiled and said, "I don't even know how to practice. I didn't expect Sheng and Yang Ji's friends to be Qi practitioners... Oh, it's you!"
Ruan Zai was suddenly stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise: "Sheng said that his Qi Refiner friend is you!"
Chi Songzi had a keen sense in her heart that Dayi might not be talking about her, but now she would just be wrong, so she nodded: "Yes, it is Lao Chan."
Anyway, Yi had so many friends, so if you just make one up, there will always be the right one.
"I'm not boasting. When I was in Leize, I met a young man who also had the ability to refine qi. But unfortunately, it seemed that a god took a fancy to him, and my tendency to be a teacher had no place to show off. ....."
Chi Songzi paid attention to his words while speaking, trying not to expose Chonghua's name, but what he said was indeed true. Xu You recommended him to him at that time. After observing for a while, Chi Songzi felt that the young man was very good.
"Today I want to measure the highest point of the sun's shadow...I need to wait for two days."
Ruzai expressed his wish to Chisongzi that he must practice cultivation, but not today.
"Of course you can. It just so happens that I also want to observe today's sun shadow point. When I was organizing the weather meter for a tribe in the past, I thought hard about how to better measure the time. Later, the appearance of Tugui and the sun pole was a solution. It took a lot of trouble, but now this sundial is better and more complete."
"By the way, let me ask out of the blue, you said you want He Sheng to learn archery? I'm not telling him. As long as you learn how to refine your Qi, you won't be afraid of bows and arrows."
————
Dayi scratched his head, feeling a chill on his back and a heavy breath on his chest.
"Does anyone care about me?"
Dayi didn't pay too much attention. He had many friends. It was normal for someone to miss him. He just hoped that the person who missed him would not have any accidents.
He was building a chicken coop. The new chicken greenhouse was built entirely by Dayi himself. In the Akafang family, Dayi felt that what he learned the most was not new technologies and ideas about water control, but carpentry skills.
From beginner to proficient, it only takes one-third of a year.
As for going from proficiency to burial, that was not something that Yi considered.
Dayi was traveling around all year round, and there were masters of carpentry in the Central Plains, but the things they made were different from those here, and their work techniques were also completely different. Although the Akafang family's carpentry team was very young, Dayi was very optimistic about them.
"My little friend should also come and have a look... Hey, it's a pity that he is also being inspected now. The emperor seems not very satisfied with him, but carpentry is of great use. Even I know it, but it's a pity that the emperor is not like that. think....."
The sounds of cooing and cooing became one, and Dayi was also very happy, and the little friend he mentioned in this sentence...
He is a young man who likes to talk back to Di Fangxun, has his own principles, and likes to argue with others about right and wrong.
His name is Zhu, which is similar to the name of a golden crow, but because he was released into Danshui by the emperor a few years ago, the world calls him "Danzhu".
During the summer solstice, everyone in the world is busy.
