I have a store in the comic world

After the exercise, the Immortal was promoted to the Third Duke by Emperor Liu Hong, but the Immortal declined the offer, and the Immortal asked for something, a "seismometer."

Emperor Liu Hong naturally agreed. Of course, he didn't know what the Immortal thing was. He only knew that it existed. Everyone who heard about it also talked about it, but the Immortal couldn't stop smiling.

The Immortal did not want the three princes to ask for things, so Zhao Yun, Gan Ning, Zhang Liao, Zhang Ren, Zhang Xiu, and Cao Xing all got official positions. Even Jia Xu and Li Ru were given official positions, but they were not in charge. Their duty was to assist Taishi. Make stargazing.

As for the independent army, because of its small number, it was designated as the Forbidden Army and was specifically responsible for protecting Luoyang.

......

Luoyang City, somewhere in the Lingtai.

At this time, Zhou Wenwen was very happy. As the saying goes, there is no place to be found even if you step through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it.

Behind Zhou Wenwen were Jia Xu, Li Ru, Gan Ning, Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao and Lingtai Taishi Ling Wang Li.

Oh yes, this Lingtai Taishi Ling Wang Li predicted the "strong man" who predicted the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty defeated Cao Yang and wanted to float down the river. Wang Lize, the minister and Taishi Ling, said: "Since last spring, Taibai has violated Zhenxing in Niudou and passed Tianjin. Yinghuo has gone back to guard Beihe. You must not violate it."

So Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty did not cross the river north and led his army out from the east of Zhiguan.

Wang Li then said to Zongzheng and Liu Ai: "In the past, Taibai guarded Tianguan and met with Yinghuo; the intersection of gold and fire is the symbol of revolution. The life of longevity in the Han Dynasty has come to an end, and there will definitely be prosperity in the land of Jin and Wei."

During the time when the clothes were worn, Wang Li said to Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty: "The destiny of the Han Dynasty is over, and the five elements are not always prosperous. Earth replaces fire. The one who inherits the Han Dynasty is Wei. The one who can stabilize the world is the person named Cao. We can only appoint Cao."

Cao Cao heard about it and sent someone to say to Wang Li: "I know you are loyal to the court, but the way of heaven is far-reaching, please don't say more."

The meaning is obvious, the flattery is good, but don’t do it again next time.

At this time, Zhou Wenwen had already walked into the room where the seismometer was placed. He was excited but also felt tragic about the real thing in front of him.

The reason for excitement is that it is real and is an immortal masterpiece of ancient mankind.

The tragedy is that it was not preserved. If history had not changed, the seismograph and the entire spiritual platform would have been destroyed when Dong Zhuo burned Luoyang and retreated to Chang'an.

And coincidentally, the legend of the burning of Luoyang and the retreat from Chang'an is related to Jia Xu and Li Ru. Zhou Wenwen thought in his heart, but no matter what, the world will protect the seismograph from today on.

"Wenyuan, before you came, Dong Zhuo was still in Liangzhou?"

After Wang Li left, Zhou Wenwen looked at Zhang Liao and asked. Zhang Liao recalled it and replied affirmatively, "Answer the Immortal, before Xingba and Wen Yuan left, Dong Zhuo was indeed still in Liangzhou."

"Then I order you to return to Liangzhou with Xiu and Zhang Ren now. After joining Xiu's uncle Zhang Jie, before June next year, you can put down the Liangzhou rebellion and collect Dong Zhuo's troops."

"Yes, the general will prepare now."

After hearing what the immortal said, Zhang Liao still answered although he was a little depressed that he could not stay with the immortal.

After Zhang Liao left, Zhou Wenwen said to Jia Xu, Li Ru, Gan Ning, and Zhao Yunde, "I calculate that there will be a rebellion in the north, and the Wu Heng and Xianbei people will also join in."

"I want you and General Lu to go to Youzhou to solve this problem in advance when you go to Jizhou together."

"As long as you are here, I can rest assured about this, okay?"

"Respect the immortal's decree!"

......

Back to the original topic, why is Zhou Wenwen so happy?

The answer still has to go back to the seismograph, because Zhou Wenwen discovered that the seismograph was the national weapon of the Eastern Han Dynasty, not a snake-killing sword.

The national weapon means a large amount of energy resources. These energy resources can be used to activate the remaining spirits of the ruined buildings in the Yuan Domain. When the time comes, it will be much simpler to invest metal resources in repair.

According to the Records of the Five Elements in the Book of the Later Han Dynasty, twenty-six major earthquakes occurred in the more than thirty years from the fourth year of Yongyuan of Emperor He (AD 92) to the fourth year of Yanguang of Emperor An (AD 125).

Earthquake zones sometimes span dozens of counties, causing landslides, house collapses, and river flooding, causing huge losses.

Zhang Heng had a lot of personal experience with earthquakes. In order to grasp the earthquake trends across the country, after years of research, he finally invented the Houfeng seismometer, the world's first seismograph, in the first year of Yangjia (AD 132).

At that time, this instrument was used to successfully predict an earthquake in the western region, which attracted national attention. This was more than 1,700 years earlier than the use of instruments to record earthquakes in Western countries.

In the eleventh month of the third year of Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty (December 134, 12 AD), a dragon machine of the seismograph suddenly started and spit out a copper ball, which fell into the toad's mouth.

At that time, people in Luoyang did not feel any signs of the earthquake, so some people began to talk about it, wondering why the seismometer was not effective.

Within a few days, someone from Longxi (today's Tianshui area of ​​Gansu Province) came to report and confirmed that an earthquake had indeed occurred there a few days ago, so people began to be extremely convinced of Zhang Heng's superb technology.

Longxi is more than a thousand miles away from Luoyang, and the seismometer's markings are correct, indicating that its seismic sensitivity is relatively high.

......

Zhou Wenwen took a deep breath and summoned the Li Fire. Under the illumination of the Li Fire, Zhou Wenwen slowly read out the passage, and with each word and sentence uttered, the seismograph would glow.

"In the first year of Yangjia, the wind and seismograph was rebuilt."

"It is made of fine copper, eight feet in diameter, with a raised lid, shaped like a wine statue, and decorated with the shapes of turtles, birds and beasts on the mountain in seal script."

"There is a capital pillar in the middle, and there are eight roads running beside it, which are used to control and send out opportunities."

"There are eight dragons outside, with a copper pill in their head and a toad at the bottom. They open their mouths to receive it."

"The teeth are ingeniously made and are hidden in the statue, covering them all the time."

"If there is an earthquake, the dragon will spit out pills and the toad will pick them up."

"The sound of vibrating is exciting, and those who are waiting are aware of it."

"Although one dragon sends out its power, but the seven heads do not move, if you look for its direction, you will know where the earthquake is."

"Test it with things, and the harmony is like a god."

"Since it is recorded in the book, it has not been found."

"When a dragon came out and the ground didn't move, the scholars in the capital were surprised that it didn't move. A few days later, the post arrived and the earthquake occurred in Longxi, so they all admired its wonderfulness.

"From then on, historians were ordered to record the origin of the earthquake."

"Get up!"

As the last word was uttered, the energy in the seismometer could no longer be restrained, and it directly broke through Yunxiao, forming cloud crystals in the clouds and mist, which were caught by Zhou Wenwen.

......

Note: Among the three historical books recording the Houfeng Seismograph, "Hou Han Ji" is about 69 years earlier than "Hou Han Shu", and "Xu Han Shu" is about 139 years earlier than "Hou Han Shu". Judging from the originality of the records, "Xu Han Shu" is about years earlier than "Hou Han Shu". "Book" is better than "Book of the Later Han Dynasty", and "Book of the Later Han Dynasty" is better than "Book of the Later Han Dynasty".
