When the fighting finger is ugly, the yellow longitude of the sun reaches 300°.
Big cold.
It's another year of severe cold. Turning over, it will be the ninth year of Yuzai's life in this world.
The ninth year is coming, and the tenth year will not be far away.
The sky was filled with wind and clouds, and a group of people came from the north.
With the help of two great qigong masters, I moved forward with the wind and rain, and my speed was much faster.
The waves on the river are roaring. This is the boundary of Hanzhong in later generations. Everyone has crossed the Qinling Mountains and is heading towards Shu.
In the past, Yu Zai once provided a method for water control in Shu, so the Shu people went out to Xiling to look for the Juling clan. Now several years have passed. I wonder if the Dujiangyan Irrigation System in Shu has been successfully built?
The mountains and fields are deep, and there are mountains and cliffs outside the Shu region. The huge basin-like structure of the Shu region makes the entire Shu region a unique semi-enclosed environment. It was established when Leizu left the Western Tomb, or in other words, when Lingxuan, the grandson of Emperor Yan, entered the Shu region. Before the Huren Kingdom, the Shu people really "avoided the chaos of the Five Dragons in their previous lives, and did not know that there was a time of Fuxi and Shennong."
The land of Hanzhong is bordered by the Qinling Mountains to the north, Daba Mountain to the south, Shennongjia and Wushan North to the east, and Motianling Mountains to the west. Of course, these mountains, except Wushan, all had their own names in ancient times.
Daba Mountain is a very famous karst landform. In China’s own words, it is a karst landform. It provides people with popular science knowledge about animals. There are peak clusters, underground rivers, troughs, caves, undercurrents, stone mountains and other natural landforms, as well as ancient Glacial relics, which means ancient ores and fossils can be excavated here....
"Look over there, in the distance...the mountains and landforms were carved and polished by the long years of heaven and earth. They are a kind of geological relic that cannot be restored after being destroyed. It can truly be called a miraculous workmanship."
Ruanzai pointed to a river valley in the distance. There was a stone forest on the undulating cliffs above the river valley. It looked like a pirated version of Stonehenge, but in fact, Stonehenge was actually built to imitate this natural landform. .
So what you think is genuine may not necessarily be genuine...
"Geological relics?"
Hongchao had a lot of questions. He said he had heard of ruins left behind after tribes were wiped out. How come there are ruins on the land?
Yuzai searched around and struck a stone with the small geological hammer in his backpack.
"How long do you think this stone is from?"
Hongchao: "?"
“Hasn’t the stone always been there?”
Yu Zai shook his head: "Stones also have periods of formation, and they also have types. You see, the piece in my hand is a piece of limestone."
"It was formed because this place was a lake or sea in ancient times. After the water receded..."
Yuzai explained, and then talked about the age of this piece of limestone, saying it was probably over 10,000 years old.
Regarding finding the age of a stone, you must first understand whether it is a relative age or an absolute age. Secondly, if there is no way to detect isotopes or use high-tech equipment, there is also the simplest method.
Yuzai pointed to the mountain in the valley. There were some strange ancient bones next to where the limestone was struck.
This paleontological dating method is limited to sedimentary strata and cannot be applied to igneous and metamorphic rock strata.
"What is this? I have never seen such an animal before."
Several people went up to watch, and the enlightened beasts and others were also confused. These animals looked more like alien beasts than themselves, and they looked weird.
However, there were naturally strange beasts in ancient times.
Yu Zai laughed twice:
"Perhaps the alien beasts today are the result of some ancient creatures that did not evolve completely, or were born from another evolutionary path. Of course, it is not important how they came about. What is important is that we are all living beings. In the long river of life, they are all insignificant but shining independent individuals."
"Just like the stars in the sky are not the same, the sand in the quicksand is never the same. The important thing is life itself. The so-called tracing back to the source is just to know where we come from, so we can think about where we are going."
Guangchengzi touched his beard: "I have lived for fifteen hundred years and have never seen this kind of animal. How old is this kind of animal?"
Yu Zai said: "I don't know either, but it would take at least ten thousand years to form this kind of fossil, and it would be possible for it to go up to one hundred thousand or one million years."
"If you need an accurate measurement, there is a method. There is a special kind of 'qi' in the water flow. It will penetrate into these fossil bones over a long period of time, so a substance in the bones will be converted into a The process of planting ore is irreversible, so the more 'gas' contained in the fossil, the longer it will be buried underground..."
What Yuan Zai is talking about is the dating method of fluorine content in fossil bones. However, although the fluorine element is described as a gas, Yuan Zai is not an archeology major after all. Although he only worked with the archaeological team for a period of time, the general direction he is responsible for is still different. Yes, just half-baked.
However, although Yu Zai did not elaborate, the two Qi Refiners looked at the fossilized animal bone thoughtfully.
It turns out that there is still a lot of special energy in the world.
"There are thousands of changes in the six qi?"
"Sure enough, my apprentice had previously cultivated the Innate Qi, so he used his own totem fire and mixed it with the Innate Qi to become the blue Samadhi True Fire..."
The two Qi Masters seemed to have seen a brand new path.
"Sure enough, what we thought in the past was correct. Everything in the world is inseparable from Qi, but the functions of these Qi are different."
"Now, it has been confirmed once again!"
I dug up some fossils on the road. In this era, some of these fossils were exposed on the surface due to changes in the cliffs and soil, so you can dig out a lot of good things along the way.
Shells or something like that, just dig out some and you'll find them.
Kaiming Beast also dug up some fossils. The nine-headed tiger began to put these stones in front of him to select, and touched his chin with his tiger claws.
I'm thinking...
I am looking for the power of thought...
It wondered, in the past, tortoise carapace was used for burning divination, and the results were accurate because the tortoise lived a long life. So, if the oracle bones of these fossils were used to bake it, would it be possible to... directly gain insight into the secrets of heaven?
The nine heads and eighteen eyes of the enlightened beast glowed at the same time.
I'm so smart!
Isn't this the magic weapon of a fortune teller?
This divination probability must be improved according to the year of the oracle bone!
Kaimingmon collected a lot of fossils, while Zanyin on the other side held a huge leg bone and gnawed it for a while, and found that the batch tasted unpleasant.
"Moo!"
Xuan Yin's face was very tangled, and he let out a dissatisfied roar.
It doesn't care whether this thing can be used for divination. The point is, this thing doesn't taste good at all. It originally thought it was similar to a salt-cured ham...
How dare ham bones that are 165 million years old taste like this? It's like eating mud.
Yuzai was also digging for rocks, saying that he might be able to find some fossilized Pokémon from ancient times!
People were digging for bones in the mountains.
In the shadow of the mountain, there is a tall and thin figure wearing yellow clothes, standing motionless like a ghost, quietly not even breathing.
