Those who are interested in the Jade Slip Cave are by no means only the righteous cultivators from the Middle Earth and the demonic cultivators from the Western Regions.
As natives of southern Xinjiang, foreigners are also very interested in the jade slip caves that have existed in southern Xinjiang since ancient times.
A long time ago, the ancient maps of the Jade Slip Cave were kept by the ancient shaman tribe living in the Shiwan Mountains. Most of the foreigners only heard their names and rarely saw their true appearance. Now it is a good idea to find out.
Opportunity. When Ye Xiaochuan and other Zhengmo disciples started to set off, there were dozens more aliens in the team. Perhaps considering the ability of human cultivators to come and go, most of these aliens were from the wings of the elders. Except for
Apart from a dozen black elves carrying bows and arrows longer than their own bodies, the others
In the eyes of Ye Xiaochuan and others, they almost all look the same, and they can't tell the difference between the Eagle people and the Bird people.
Ye Xiaochuan is the only one in the team who knows something about the dial. In fact, he doesn’t know much about it. He only knows that the dial is divided into a dial needle and a dial surface. By pointing the dial needle to the dial surface, not only can the stars in the Milky Way in the sky be measured,
Tracking can also be carried out to accurately locate the position on the ground.
After discovering that the ancient map and the Big Dipper were a set of dial artifacts, Ye Xiaochuan gradually understood many things.
For example, the ancient maps inherited from the land of Southern Xinjiang are probably because of their age. Even the Miao people in Southern Xinjiang who have been collecting dials do not know that if they want to find the Jade Slip Hidden Cave, the dials alone are not enough. They also need the Big Dipper.
This sundial needle will do the trick.
The reason why Senior Evil God separated the sundial instruments and sundial needles and handed them over to different people for safekeeping was probably to prevent anyone from trying to open the jade slip hiding cave without permission. The catastrophe six thousand years ago was the last time the jade slips were opened in the world.
Hidden Cave, it is a pity that during that catastrophe, the human world was completely defeated. The last black witch clan among the four major witch clans in southern Xinjiang also disappeared after the catastrophe. The Dial and Needle Big Dipper was lost. Eight hundred years ago,
Beidou
The star instrument was obtained by the Demon King Zongduo again.
Perhaps it is for this reason that the use of the dial instrument gradually disappeared in southern Xinjiang.
Yang Shijiu poured some spirits on the oval-shaped dial surface. The smooth and transparent jade pieces soon turned pitch black after pouring the spirits on them. Inside the black jade, those shiny
The blue light spot appeared again.
Ye Xiaochuan used the power of the stars to activate the dial needle and the Big Dipper. The silver light gradually condensed into a silver line of light, lighting up the jade piece on the dial surface.
The shining light spots representing stars on the jade piece on the dial began to flicker and move along some mysterious trajectory, just like the stars moving in the sky.
No one can understand what the blue and silver dots running on the dial and needles mean. To them, it is like reading a wordless book, with no clue.
This does not include Ye Xiaochuan.
Ye Xiaochuan didn't bother to explain to them that this involved a very profound and obscure star spell recorded in the Star Chapter of the Eighth Book of Heaven, which he couldn't explain clearly in a sentence or two. Ye Xiaochuan flew in the air in front, and Yang Jiu mentioned
He followed him with a big wine jar. The jade piece on the sundial surface was very strange and absorbed spirits very quickly. Almost every half a stick of incense, Yang Jiu had to pour strong wine on the jade piece on the dial surface again.
, in order to keep the dial surface as dark as
The state of the starry sky.
Hanging in mid-air thousands of feet above the ground, Ye Xiaochuan relied on the jade piece on the dial and began to look up at the Milky Way stars in the nine heavens. Everyone also looked up to watch.
After watching this for nearly half an hour, everyone's necks felt uncomfortable. Many people wanted to ask Ye Xiaochuan if he was okay? However, Ye Xiaochuan booed everyone and stopped them from talking.
Stargazing is the most difficult part in the Star Chapter of Volume 8 of the Heavenly Book. There are too many stars in the nine heavens, and they are not in the same position. Without the assistance of detailed star maps, it is difficult to study the way out in a short time.
Whether it is a jade dial or a dial star, there are only a few hundred silver and blue light spots representing stars. It is very difficult to find hundreds of corresponding ones among the stars in the sky.
That's why Ye Xiaochuan chose to act around midnight in the middle of the night. This is the end of the day and the beginning of the day. It is the time period when yin and yang alternate. It is the time when the stars in the sky are the brightest and you can see them most clearly.
Everyone is impatient to wait, but they can only wait silently in the sky. Who knows that no one here except Ye Xiaochuan can understand this sundial artifact.
Nearly half an hour passed, and suddenly Ye Xiaochuan discovered that no matter how hard he moved, the silver light condensed by the dial star would accurately point to the blank space in the middle of the jade piece on the dial. The piece on the jade piece on the dial
The blank area is not large, but it is exactly in the center of the oval jade piece. Those slow-moving blue light spots, no matter how they move, will never come close to that area, just like the sun in the starry sky, and all the planets are
It is centered on the sun and is based on its own
It's own orbit is running.
Ye Xiaochuan had some realization and turned back to look in the direction he came from.
"It turns out that this blank area represents the highest peak in the world."
Seeing the smile on Ye Xiaochuan's lips, Yang Jiujiu, who had always been quite anxious, couldn't bear it anymore.
He said: "Little brother, what's going on? It's almost dawn, have you discovered anything?"
Ye Xiaochuan saw others looking at him expectantly. He chuckled and said, "Follow me, I have found the approximate location of the jade slip cave!"
After saying that, he suddenly rushed towards the thick fog at his feet.
When the others saw this, they immediately followed in the air. The thick fog with a radius of 500 miles in Wushan was really helpless. This search for the Wushan Jade Slip Cave was different from the last search for the map. There were many people here this time.
Just the demon sect and the righteous disciples, a total of three to four hundred people followed them, plus dozens of alien birdmen, clatter.
A large piece of.
Arriving in the thick fog, it took less than a moment to fly. Only the Zhengmo disciples around Ye Xiaochuan were still there, but most of them were gone. Occasionally, I could hear shouts coming from the thick fog around me. The sounds were not far away.
But I couldn't see it.
Ye Xiaochuan is not worried that these people will get lost. They are all cultivators and alien bird people with wings. There is no danger of getting separated. As long as they fly up in the sky and fly through the thick fog thousands of feet into the sky, they can return on their own.
To Wushan.
At this moment, the dial composed of the dial face and the dial needle is like a common compass in the world. The jade piece on the face of the dial is the yin and yang disk engraved with the eight trigram directions. The silver line of the dial needle star is on the north needle.
The pointer indicating the direction. However, as if there is a magnetic field around it, as soon as it falls on the thick foggy ground, the silver light pointer formed by the gnomon star instrument starts to circle back and forth, making it difficult to indicate the accurate direction.
