The Monk That Wanted To Renounce Asceticism

Chapter 865: The stars have changed

Views:

As soon as the lone wolf came up, he shook his head and jumped around like a dick. He jumped for a long time before shouting: "Be gentle next time, it hurts so much that I almost pulled out..."

Everyone was speechless for a while. This dead dog really disfigured the scenery!

Monkeys are good at climbing trees, so getting on the roof is no problem.

"Why are you all here?" Fang Zheng asked.

"Master can't sleep, and neither can we." Monkey said, and then sat next to Fang Zheng.

Hong Hai'er lay down next to Fang Zheng and said, "We are thoughtful, unlike that heartless guy Xianyu. He must have fallen asleep..."

As Red Boy was talking, he lay down and looked up, only to see a big fish head on top of his head, with a pair of round fish eyes and the fish's whiskers sticking up! Then I heard Xianyu say in an old-fashioned way: "Child, talk bad about others behind their backs."

Bang!

A fish rose into the sky, turned into a shooting star, and fell into the Tianlong Pond with a pop...

Not long after, Xianyu came back again, leaning on a cane and roaring angrily: "Master, do you care about this? This kid is too bearish. He hits people with his hands... No, it's fishing!"

Hong Hai'er glanced at Xianyu and said, "If you have the ability, don't stand so far away. There's still a master standing across from you. Why don't you stand on the moon?"

"My old man is civilized and polite. He doesn't fight or curse." Xianyu shouted confidently.

"You can't beat me, so you don't want to fight, right?" Hong Hai'er chuckled.

Xianyu's face turned red and he said, "If I hadn't seen you so young, I would have beaten you long ago."

Hong Boy raised his eyebrows and was about to stand up.

Xianyu hurriedly shouted: "Master, look, your apprentice is so arrogant, do you care about it?"

Fang Zheng looked helplessly at the two teasers and said with a smile, "Okay, stop making trouble, let's calm down for a while."

Fang Zheng spoke, and Red Boy naturally stopped moving. He lay beside Fang Zheng, looked at the sky, and said, "Master, what are you looking at? What's so interesting about the stars in the sky?"

Seeing that Red Boy stopped taking action, Xianyu also came over, like a dead fish, and walked towards Fangzheng's head, looked at the sky and said: "It's so scary to be uneducated. Haven't you seen that the celestial phenomena have changed? Things are going to change."

"What is a celestial phenomenon? Master, is what Xianyu said true?" Squirrel asked curiously.

Fang Zheng didn't pay attention to any celestial phenomena at all, but he was reminded by Xianyu's words. Looking at the sky carefully, sure enough, the starry sky has changed! This is completely different from the starry sky before! Fang Zheng took out his phone and looked at it, and then suddenly realized: "That's it."

"Master, what are you talking about? Why is that so? Are you talking?" Squirrel was the most curious and asked.

Fang Zheng said: "Today is the 20th solar term among the 24 solar terms, Xiaoxue. On this day, the celestial phenomena have changed. Do you think the north side of the sky is different?"

As Fang Zheng spoke, he pointed at the starry sky in the north and asked.

But after asking, Fangzheng regretted it. Wild squirrels, monkeys, and wolves can't understand the astrology! Sure enough, the three little guys looked at Fang Zheng in bewilderment, especially Lone Wolf, whose eyes were almost dilated, as if asking: "Why didn't I see that, aren't they all stars?"

However, Hong Hai'er made a sound of confusion: "Huh? How come the arrangement of the stars is so similar to the Earthly Immortal World?"

Xianyu hummed and said, "You just discovered it? It's really an afterthought. My old man discovered it on the first day he came here."

Fang Zheng ignored the bickering between the two guys and continued: "On this day of light snow, the direction of the Big Dipper's handle at night will change. It will no longer point to due north, but to the position of north-west. It's almost... Well, it's almost equivalent to It's ten o'clock on the clock. Look at the current Big Dipper. Are the directions they point to different now? If you look in the direction pointed by the current Big Dipper, you can't find them at all. Polaris.

I've heard people say that some stargazers don't look at Polaris to determine coordinates at this time, but use the W-shaped Cassiopeia as coordinates for stargazing navigation.

It's almost eight o'clock in the evening now. Look at the Big Dipper. Are they sinking? And Pegasus over there has also begun to rise into the sky, and Orion on the eastern horizon has also begun to poke its head from the horizon? "

Fang Zheng pointed like this, and then pointed out several constellations one by one. Several little guys, including Xianyu, also followed suit and recognized the constellations one by one. They listened with great interest as Fang Zheng told some short stories about the constellations.

"Master, that's not right. Today is the 24th solar term of light snow, so why doesn't it snow today? Also, why is today called light snow? We've had several heavy snows here, right?" Monkey likes to think. Questions, soon there were questions.

Fang Zheng smiled and said: "Xiaoxue is not just a solar term in the Northeast, but a solar term in all of China. The Xiaoxue here is not talking about the light snow in the Northeast, but the northern region north of the Yellow River. At this time, it also started to snow north of the Yellow River. Yes, so I call her Xiaoxue."

"Well, that's it." Monkey nodded.

The squirrel came up and asked: "Master, besides the stars being different, is there anything else different about this day? Is it because this time the eagle entered the water and turned into a super giant clam?"

Fang Zheng touched the melon seeds on his little head and said with a smile: "You little thing, you can draw inferences from one instance. But at this time, there is no such thing as a clam in the water. In ancient my country, light snow was also divided into three periods: "One period is filled with rainbows" disappear; in the second period, the weather rises and the earth's atmosphere decreases; in the third period, it becomes closed and becomes winter. "Don't ask yet. I know you want to ask what this means. I will explain it to you slowly." Before Squirrel opened his mouth, Fang Zheng knew what he was going to ask.

Fang Zheng continued: "The meaning of this sentence is that the weather turns cold on this day, and the rain condenses into snow. Without the rain, there will naturally be no rainbows in the rain. At the same time, this day, the Yang Qi in the sky rises, and the rain in the ground The decline of Yin Qi causes the heaven and earth to be blocked, and Yin and Yang are not connected, so all things lose their vitality, and the heaven and earth are blocked and enter the severe cold winter. This is also the definition of winter by the ancients, a season in which vitality is almost lost."

After hearing this, everyone nodded and learned something again. Only the squirrel tilted its head and muttered: "Master, that's not what I asked."

"Oh? Then what do you want to ask?" Fang Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly came back to his senses. Could this little thing be another...

Sure enough, the squirrel said, "I just wanted to ask, it's the holidays, isn't there anything good to eat?"

Fang Zheng: “…”

Squirrel asked everyone what they were thinking and stared at Fang Zheng one by one.

Fang Zheng smiled bitterly and said, "There must be food, but in the Northeast, there really isn't much to eat..."
