Chapter 153

This shows that the ancients didn't imagine it out of thin air, but drew it scientifically based on actual measurements.

You have to know that 400 years later in Europe, until the Renaissance in the 14th century, Galileo used a telescope to observe the starry sky to depict the star chart.

It was a full 600 years later than our country's astronomical chart!

And even with the assistance of a telescope, the number of stars Galileo actually observed at that time was only 1022!

It was a full 400 less than the number of stars observed by the Song Dynasty ancients over 1000 years ago!

These aren't marbles, where one or two less doesn't matter.

This one is a star, and the meaning represented by a star is extraordinary.

The gap of these 400 stars is like a chasm.

And they were seen with a telescope. Comparing the gap between the two, it goes without saying.

What made Fang Yang unbelievable was that through modern astronomical methods, it could be verified that the positions of more than 900 of these 1434 stars were consistent!

From this data, it can be seen that the ancients who drew this star chart had an understanding of astronomy far beyond everyone's imagination.

The three circles drawn in the middle of the stele were not drawn randomly either.

The positions of the North Pole circle, the equator circle, and the constant hidden circle were clearly visible, and they even depicted the entire operating law of the solar system.

You have to know that in the Northern Song Dynasty 1000 years ago, the person who drew this chart could not have gone to the equator and the North Pole.

At that time, international exchanges were only through ships, and even going abroad was difficult, let alone going to places like the North Pole and the equator.

Really don't know how the ancients observed it.

Could it be that they calculated with their fingers that there was a circle at the North Pole?

It can be said that the greatest value of this stele is not itself.

But the astronomical chart on it.

If this astronomical chart is once published.

One can imagine that world astronomy will produce a huge shock.

Chen Feng accidentally discovered that Fang Yang had been stunned since just now, and asked suspiciously: "Fang Yang? What's wrong with you?"

Even Dean He looked as usual, and didn't see anything.

Mainly because what everyone saw was the back of the stele. Unless you have X-ray eyes or a system like Fang Yang, no one could see what an important cultural relic this thing was.

After Fang Yang came back to his senses, he clicked his tongue: "I just suddenly felt that this stele looked a bit familiar, like something I had seen before! But I'm not very sure!"

As soon as this was said, everyone looked at him suspiciously.

Chen Feng was dumbfounded: "Don't tell me, this is also a cultural relic?"

Fang Yang smiled and didn't respond to this topic, but walked straight to the stone and tried to flip it up.

It's just that the stone was still too heavy: "Come over and help flip it up, and you'll know!"

Chen Feng and the archaeological team members walked up to help.

With the concerted efforts of everyone, the stele loosened bit by bit.

Until it was completely flipped over.

After flipping it over, the stele was full of dirt. Although it was unclear what it looked like, some parts could be vaguely seen to be black!

This made the surrounding workers scared and backed away.

"Damn! It really looks like a tombstone, look at that color!"

"This Fang Yang is too weird! First he pulled someone's shroud, now he's lifting a tombstone. Aren't you afraid that they will come to talk to you at night!"

"What's there to be afraid of about a tombstone, look at your bear-like appearance."

Fang Yang didn't pay attention to them, but pulled a handful of grass from the side and wiped the dirt on the tombstone.

As the dirt fell off bit by bit.

The star chart carved on it slowly appeared before everyone's eyes.

——【Damn, what is written on this? It looks so strange, but it also has a mysterious feeling. It's really unclear!... This is definitely not a tombstone, the words on a tombstone wouldn't be so small!】

——【I was just wondering, Fang Yang's output, how could it not be a boutique? It turns out it's not that it's bad, it's that everyone didn't see it. Waiting for Fang Yang to popularize what this thing is? Could it be the ancient 'Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms', the kind that can hit a divine dragon when practiced.】

——【You don't understand! This stele is used to suppress the blood coffin just now. Now that the blood coffin is opened, if the stele is dug up again, the deceased in the blood coffin will turn into a soul-taking ghost, and finally kill everyone on the scene, and then kill all the idiots in the live stream!】

——【I just saw that there are many lines drawn on the stele. Is it possible that it's like the stone cow last time, with a treasure map pattern carved inside? As long as you find it, it's equivalent to finding the key to the treasure map, then open the big tomb, and finally found an alien civilization inside, and then a bunch of star-destroying cannons flew out, and then... there's no then, we'll all be dead!】

——【I found that you people have rich imaginations. I feel that it's most likely an ordinary cultural relic, with some patterns carved on it. But leaving it in the wild like this is indeed a bit hard to understand.】

The archaeological team member held a brush in one hand and a spray bottle in the other, spraying water on it.

First, the entire starry sky chart appeared.

But too much dirt was trapped inside, and it was still unclear.

As the archaeological staff constantly cleaned it, those circles, those star descriptions.

One by one, the hours appeared before everyone's eyes.

But even so, everyone still couldn't see what this was. Astronomy is something ordinary people can't imagine at all.

Then the dense small characters on the lower part were cleaned out.

The chart explanation in the lower part.

Xu Fang looked at the words on it and read suspiciously: "Taiji is judged, the light and clear is heaven, the heavy and turbid is earth, the clear and turbid is human... hiss~~ what on earth does this mean?"

Not only did he not know, but everyone else couldn't understand.

Also Fang Yang knew what it meant.

Only seeing Fang Yang pick up the brush and constantly brush at the very top.

The next second, three clear big characters solved the confusion in everyone's hearts.

【Astronomical Chart】

Chen Feng exclaimed: "This is actually an astronomical chart, my god, what era is this from?"

Even Dean He squatted down and touched it gently with his hand, muttering to himself: "Song Dynasty bluestone stele!"

Everyone was shocked!

Song Dynasty?

88, Astronomical chart annotation, astronomical world shock! (Please subscribe!)

When the astronomical chart stele was completely cleaned out, everyone was moved.

In the circles above, it was filled with dense stars, and star system charts connected by lines, with the Milky Way crossing the star chart.

Below, there was a pile of classical Chinese, corresponding to the astronomical chart explanation.

Everyone was shocked.

But no one present could understand it.

They were just archaeological experts, not astronomers. They could see its era, but couldn't see the specific meaning.

Dean He looked at it for a while with a furrowed brow: "This stele should be a chart explanation for recording astronomical stars in the Song Dynasty. It's just that the specific meaning, I guess I have to take it back and study it carefully!"

Everyone nodded.

Only Chen Feng looked at Fang Yang. He found that Fang Yang was calm, as if he knew everything.

An impulse made him ask out loud involuntarily: "Fang Yang, do you know what this astronomical chart means?"

As soon as this was said, everyone looked at Fang Yang.

Fang Yang smiled awkwardly and scratched his head: "I know some, it's just that I'm not sure if it's right!"

Hiss~~~

"Really know?"

Chen Feng didn't know what to say. You understand archaeology, and you even understand astronomy?

Not only was he shocked, even Dean He was a bit unbelievable.

"Fang Yang, if you know, tell everyone. It doesn't matter if you're wrong!"

"Ah... this... then I'll say it!"

Fang Yang organized his thoughts, squatted down, and pointed to the stele.

"I read the records of this stele in ancient books before. This star chart was drawn by Huang Shang of the Southern Song Dynasty. He was once selected as the teacher of the Southern Song Crown Prince Zhao Kuo. In order to teach the Crown Prince astronomy and geography, he drew eight astronomical and geographical charts. This star chart is one of them. Later, it was carved on a stone stele by someone."

"First is this big circle on the outermost, what is carved on it is the twelve hours, corresponding to Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xin, Hai."

"There are also twelve times, used to explain the changes in solar terms and the position of Jupiter, corresponding to Yuanxiao, Xingji, Ximu, Dahu, Shouxing, Chunwei, Chunhuo, Chunshou, Shichen, Daliang, Jianglou, Zouzi."

"The ancients believed that the stars in the sky correspond to the states and countries on the ground, and the celestial phenomena in the sky indicate the good and bad luck of the corresponding places. So they carved twelve states and twelve fields." ===== CHAPTER 154 =====
