Where is Zhuge Liang's Eight Arrays now?

After the impoundment of the Three Gorges, Zhuge Liang's Eight Arrays in Bai Di will sink 60 meters underwater.

Zhuge Liang, who is good at predicting the future, may not have expected that a big sandbar (that is, an eight-array map) under Baiti City, where he once trained and deployed, would be submerged 60 meters underwater.

On the 3 rd, the reporter rowed the Yangtze River under Baidi City, and it was a vast expanse of water. The person in charge of Fengjie Marine Department said: "The well-known eight-array map at home and abroad is 40 meters underwater. When the water level reaches 135 meters, the eight-array map is 60 meters underwater. "

On the north bank of the Yangtze River, east of Fengjie Old Town 1000 meters, there is a large moraine dam with a length of 1500 meters and a width of 600 meters, and a stream flows through it. Among them, the stones are seven high and eight low, which is the legendary eight-array map of Zhuge Liang's training. Lu Xun, who recorded Dongwu in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, was frustrated in the Eight Arrays and had to admire Zhuge Liang's magic.

Both Li Bai and Du Fu Lu You have set foot on the Eight Arrays.

Eight treasures map is by no means an ordinary dam, it has profound historical and cultural connotation. Ni, deputy director of the Propaganda Department of Fengjie County Committee, is famous for studying Fengjie culture. Yesterday, he told reporters: According to research, since the Tang Dynasty, people have been used to visiting the eight treasures in groups on the seventh day of the first month of each year, commonly known as "outing". Women choose stones on the mound and drill holes to string them together to show good luck. Among celebrities, Li Bai, Du Fu, Lu You and others have also come here and left poems.

With the eight-array map at the bottom of the river forever, Fengjie people have lost a custom since then: going for an outing on the seventh day of the first month. According to the citizens of Fengjie Old Town, at the beginning of this year, eight formations emerged from the water. People know that this is the last chance to visit the Eight Arrays, and thousands of people visit the river every day.

Eight arrays of overseas China fans.

Hu Liming, deputy director of fengjie county Cultural Tourism Bureau, said that although it is a large-scale rock dam, the Eight Arrays map has an international reputation, especially for tourists interested in China culture. When they came to Fengjie, they were bound to appreciate the elegance of the Eight Arrays.

Hu Liming said that the novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms has a great influence in Southeast Asia, Japan and other places. Visitors there will always ask a question when they come to Fengjie: Where is Zhuge Liang's Eight Arrays? Eight arrays have a mysterious color in their eyes.

Hu Liming thinks that if tourists at home and abroad ask this question again in the future, we can only point to the approximate position on the river and answer: under the boat, it won't appear again!

Eight arrays can also be divided into floods and droughts.

Xifeng said that eight arrays can be divided into water eight arrays and drought eight arrays. This time it was eight bursts of water, which was flooded because of water storage. The eighth drought array is located two kilometers east of Du Fu Caotang in Kuizhou, Bai Di, where ravines are criss-crossed, cliffs are steep and the terrain is complex. Next to it is the tomb of Zhuge Liang's father-in-law, Huang. It is predicted that, with the Eight Waters sinking to the bottom, it will become a must-see for lovers of The Romance of the Three Kingdoms in the future.
