The heavy snow does not freeze, and the Awakening Insects do not bloom.
Dou Zhigui, heavy snow.
The heavy snow season is divided into three periods: the first period is when the ducks don't sing; the second period is when tigers begin to interact with each other; and the third period is when litchi trees emerge.
It means that due to the cold weather, the cold trumpeting birds no longer sing at this time; this is the period when Yin Qi is at its peak, so-called peak and decline, Yang Qi has sprouted, and tigers have begun to engage in courtship behavior; "Li Ting" is blue grass. A kind of feeling that the yang energy sprouts and sprouts.
But in the south, of course it doesn’t snow.
Nowadays, the sky and the earth are gradually getting warmer. Even where you could still see scattered small snowflakes, you can no longer see them now.
It was pouring rain and it was dark with low clouds.
The water level in the swamp is rising, and this heavy rain comes just before the completion of the large weather observatory.
In the hazy sinking world, the already huge meteorological observatory became more and more towering into the clouds. The beasts in the distant mountains and fields saw the huge mountain-like shadow in the distance, and inexplicably felt worship and awe in their hearts.
A huge black snake arrived near the big meteorological observatory. He raised his head and looked at the great building. His snake eyes were dull for a while, and then he quietly approached the meteorological observatory.
In the northern part of the public field, near the flood diversion area, many people wearing raincoats appeared.
Yuzai was also among them, Yinglong was also among them, plus Chongbo, Zhurong, Changqin, Uncle Xi, and the wizard of the Yaoshan clan, etc. The people here were all people involved in the construction plan of the great flood control city.
Uncle Chong is in charge of hydrological surveying, Changqin is in charge of recording, Zhurong is in charge of engineering and stone work, Uncle Xi is in charge of astronomy, Yinglong is in charge of wind and rain, Yaoshan is in charge of all other data calculations, and some other tribe members, such as Ye, etc., will help the Yaoshan clan. .
Red pine nuts, the main finger pointing.
This is a God-sent heavy rain. You can see the direction of the water and it must come.
"Fieldwork data is crucial..."
Yu Zai told everyone about advanced calculation methods and measurement methods. Of course, this so-called advanced method was actually quite primitive in Yu Zai's later generations, but it was definitely much more accurate than the measurement and calculation methods of this era.
A stone tablet was carried over and embedded in the hills of the flood diversion area. This stone tablet was very large, so it was very conspicuous.
This thing is called "water law".
In addition to rain gauges and other facilities and equipment, everyone has long understood that correct measurement of hydrological and astronomical phenomena can bring endless blessings to the tribe. Of course, the basis for correct measurement is advanced facilities and clever calculation and comparison methods. Finally, we must add Cowhide people.
Here, many people saw Yuzai’s new “black technology” for the first time.
Level.
In the process of digging channels and even canals, the water surface is used to measure the height of the terrain. During the Warring States Period, Zhuangzi saw this kind of thing and said, "Still water means the center is even, and a great craftsman can learn how to do it." However, this thing In fact, it appeared much earlier than the Warring States Period. During the Spring and Autumn Period, the so-called "what is this person's level?" actually came from Confucius.
Xunzi records that Confucius believed that the word "level" was very good. It could not only measure the terrain, but also express the level of a person's skills and knowledge, so he used this word when talking to his disciples.
The ancient level, a set of measuring tools, consists of three parts, namely "level", "light plate" and "measurement rod".
Of course, this thing was simple and easy to learn in the Shanhai era, but from such simplicity, it could measure extremely miraculous results. As soon as this thing came out, Chong Bo used it for a while and couldn't put it down immediately.
People's hobbies are always weird, but men's hobbies are the same. Science students like exquisite instruments, and liberal arts students like figurines.
The plan for the large flood control city has quickly begun to be implemented. This heavy rain is the best on-the-spot investigation.
Busy people gathered and dispersed, swaying in coir raincoats and bringing equipment. Soon, they gradually disappeared into the hazy mist and rain.
"Humans regard themselves as a part of the world, but they also try their best to figure out the changes in the world. There is often a huge connection between blessings and disasters, but for human beings... no, for all living beings, they are all Walking on thin ice with fear and fear.”
Ruanzai's voice was very soft, and she and Chi Songzi were talking to each other. The teacher then asked, if the world cares about every living being, then the laws of nature should not exist.
It is precisely because of its vastness that it can accommodate all living beings and all things have many colors.
"Because heaven and earth don't care."
When they left, they saw many cattle and sheep appearing in the far distance, and some people were driving the cattle and sheep from the direction of the river.
On the other hand, Shujun and Xianlong also saw the people who were busy here before. Those people were wearing raincoats and bamboo hats. These things had spread, and the Central Plains originally had similar crude products.
But what really confused Shujun and Xianlong were the tools taken away by the people in the south.
They came to a piece of land in the flood diversion area and saw the huge Shuize Monument, leaning sideways, or embedded in the edge of the mound.
There are many scales recorded on it, and there are huge Cangjie characters on the back.
The top one is a "danger".
Wei is the name of an ancient god. This god was the one who harmed Yaoyao. Later, he committed suicide and turned himself into a stone man. He was suppressed for at least two thousand years.
"Danger is a sign of great danger. Is this something to measure the water level?"
"It's just a water monument! Why are you surprised? Isn't it enough to carve this with someone's hands?"
Xianlong snorted twice, thinking that this thing was not what he wanted to see.
If there is something that can be carved by hand, I can do it.
Shujun was a little interested. When he was young, he once participated in a sacrifice to drive away the drought demons. At that time, he walked westward with willow branches and called the gods to the north as he walked. In some places, similar things would be used to drive away the drought demons. To measure the water level, it is usually a bamboo pole or something...
They had just arrived at Nanfang and unexpectedly bumped into Nanfang who seemed to be doing some surveying. Such professional movements reminded Shujun of the group of people at the Taotang Land Observatory.
That is, although I can’t quite understand it, I know that you are very professional.
The sounds of cattle and sheep came one after another. The cattle were better, but the sheep obviously didn't like the rainy weather. Even though they were covered with large pieces of grass, the sheep and goats were still unhappy.
Xianlong was also very unhappy and began to urge Shujun to move faster, but Shujun suddenly said:
"Xianlong, you go ahead, I'll observe here..."
"Ah? This is just a pile of broken rocks. What's there to observe?"
Shujun pointed to an instrument on it, which was sitting there alone.
That's a rain gauge.
.........
The rain began to subside, and by the time they arrived at the public field, the muddy road was already full of people.
The black clouds dispersed, the light fell in a scattered manner, and people saw the fertile soil bathed in light.
Look towards the direction of the distant dawn.
