lying down

The Hedong Mountain is as strong as the mountain.Lonely peaks protrude, and there are many mountains.It has the feeling of "the chest is full of stratus clouds, and the canthus is like a bird returning home. It will be the top of the mountain, and you can see all the small mountains at a glance".

Ouyang led the team to slide in the mountains for an hour, and found that three or five dangerous places were difficult to walk, and there was even a narrow path in one place, so they had to remove the skis from their feet and move forward.The sound of the horn behind them gradually faded away. With the non-stop practice all the way, everyone could barely slide smoothly, but they still rolled all over the ground like hitting a gourd when they encountered a turning or a small slope.

After turning three or five corners, the special brigade has entered a canyon area, surrounded by towering mountains, unable to distinguish the direction due to the high view.

Ouyang reached out to stop the formation, and carefully observed the surrounding environment.After watching for a moment, he suddenly asked, "Who can tell me the directions of east, west, north, south, and four directions, exactly!"

His question stumped everyone. Although the current weather is several times stronger than Chen Shizhong, it is not as cloudy and cloudy, without the slightest sunshine.But there is only a thin layer of shadow covering the ground, surrounded by mountains, and I have never been here before, how to distinguish the direction?

Everyone asked each other in low voices to find out the way to identify the direction, but they got a consensus: now they can't tell the direction, only by going back or forward for a certain distance, and seeing the terrain, can they judge the general direction.

Ouyang shook his head, stretched out his hand and summoned everyone to surround him: "Everyone is optimistic, this is a basic thing everyone needs to learn. You can use a straight pole to make it perpendicular to the ground. Vertical means to stand upright completely. Put a piece of A stone is placed at the top of the shadow of the straight rod at A; about a moment later, when the top of the shadow of the straight rod moves to B, another stone is placed. Connecting the two points of A and B into a straight line, the direction of this straight line is the east-west direction. The vertical direction connecting the line A and B is the north-south direction, and the end facing the sun is the south." He said while finding two or three short wooden sticks from the nearby grass, and gestured with his hands.

Because it took a while to determine the direction, everyone sat in a circle, rubbing their sore and aching legs and feet, and discussing this new method of judgment.

After listening to what Ouyang said, Qin Feng asked immediately: "If the sky is covered with black clouds and there is no shadow, wouldn't this method fail?"

Ouyang nodded, agreed with Qin Feng's question, and continued: "If you really encounter such a situation, you can also use the characteristics of the ground to determine the orientation, but you should use it flexibly according to different situations, and you should not be rigid. For example, an independent tree usually has lush branches and leaves in the south. The skin is smooth. The annual ring lines on the stump are usually thin in the south and dense in the north. The doors and windows of rural houses and the main gate of temples usually face south. The snow on buildings, mounds, fields, and highlands usually melts faster in the south and melts in the north Slowly. Big rocks, mounds, and big trees are densely covered with vegetation in the south, while moss is easy to grow in the north. This way, it is easier to distinguish between north and south, east and west.”

"It's really you! Eighth brother, you have so much stuff in your stomach!" Goro looked at the excited expressions in the eyes of everyone, secretly happy for his brother, and couldn't help but praise him.

Ouyang was about to say a few words of modesty, but Zhao Ziang asked in a muffled voice, "That's all about daytime, what about nighttime?"

This question was a classic one. Everyone stopped discussing after hearing the words, and all eyes turned to Ouyang to see if he could give a solution.

Ouyang smiled, and replied confidently: "When the weather is clear at night, you can use the North Star to determine the direction. To find the North Star, you must first find the Big Dipper. This constellation is composed of seven stars, and the beginning is like a spoon. When After finding the Big Dipper, follow the line connecting the two stars A and B on the edge of the spoon, and extend toward the mouth of the spoon about 5 times the distance between the two stars A and B. A brighter star is the Polaris. The direction indicated by the Polaris is the north. You can also use Look for Polaris in the Cassiopeia constellation opposite the Big Dipper. The Cassiopeia constellation is composed of 5 stars that are about the same brightness as the Big Dipper. It is shaped like... like a bird flying (w). In front of the middle of the w-shaped gap , which is about twice the width of the entire gap, you can find the North Star. This way you can also distinguish north and south. But if you ask me how to tell the direction in the dark night without the moon and stars, I want to know that it is a fairy, not a human! "

As he explained, he picked up a stick and drew the shape of the Big Dipper on the ground, as well as the letter "w" that could not be communicated.

As soon as he finished speaking, many people in the brigade were amazed and claimed that they had seen this shining "North Star" in the sky, indirectly confirming that what Ouyang said was not false.

Zhao Ziang didn't say a word, he raised his thumb to show that he was strong, then he sat down in the snow, and firmly remembered every word Ouyang said.

In fact, there are not a few people who think like Zhao Ziang. They get along day by day, and gradually find that there seems to be no problem that this young brigade commander can't explain. Of course, there are some questions that he can't answer, unless he is a god.

Ouyang didn't care about the heat or cold on the ground. He put his hands on his neck and lay directly on the snow.He didn't sleep last night, and he experienced the weird toss on the second page of "No Phase", and now he has been skating for more than an hour. Even if he is a man of iron, he can't hold it anymore. He just lies in the snow and just wants a short rest. .

Just when his eyes were about to close, Liu Yuxuan gave him a push: "Marshal, now is not the time to sleep. I don't know the way ahead, and there will be pursuers. Let's find a safe place and take a good rest!"

Ouyang opened his bloodshot eyes, stared in confusion for a moment, then came to his senses, grabbed the snow on the ground, wiped his face and asked, "Has it been a quarter of an hour?"

Liu Yuxuan nodded.Ouyang looked at the shadow of the straight pole on the ground, and there has been a big change. He fixed the top, marked the vertical, and directly set the four directions of east, west, north, south.Looking at the crowd, he asked, "Have you learned it all? This is a must-learn thing for our special brigade. Don't forget it for the rest of your life."

Everyone nodded, but there was still some drumming in their hearts. The direction was determined, but they didn't know if it was right. If they went in the wrong direction and went around and returned to the encirclement, that person would be really disappointed.

Ouyang knew it in his heart, but he didn't say anything to point it out. Later, when he came out of this situation, he would naturally prove to everyone that his knowledge was incomparably correct. Without it, it was something thousands of years later, and it came out after thousands of years of tempering.

"Now our canyon is going in two directions, northwest and southeast. If you continue to walk, you will go northwest, and you will turn a big bend behind you. If you don't fall into the encirclement, get up and follow me with confidence. Let’s wait until we find a suitable hidden place to set as the center, and we’ll discuss it later!”
