The mysterious Longtan at the foot of Fanjing Mountain in Guizhou has been forecasting the weather for thousands of years and has never missed it. Why is it so amazing?

Mount Fanjing

Fan Jing was originally named "Sangu" and was named after "Brahma Pure Land". Fan Jing is located in tongren city, Guizhou Province. Primitive flood is the landscape feature of Fan Jing. Cloud Waterfall, Zen Fog, Phantom and Buddha Light add mysterious colors to Fan Jing. It is a rare Buddhist Dojo and nature reserve in China.

Yunshe village

At the foot of Fan Jingshan, by the faint Taiping River, there is a natural village like a paradise. It is called Yunshe Village, Taiping Town, jiangkou county, and is known as "the first Tujia village in China". Legend has it that "Yunshe" Tujia Caotang was once the place where immortals lived. The immortals were moved by the hardworking and brave spirit of Tujia people, moved to the Xianren Cave in Houshan, and gave the fertile land to Tujia people. Tujia people named the stockade "Cloud House" to commemorate the immortal's achievements. It means "the house in the cloud, where the fairy lives". In fact, the word "cloud house" comes from Tujia language, which means "the place where monkeys drink water".

Shenlongtan

In the east of Yunshe Village, it flows through a mile and flows into Taiping River, which is the shortest river in the world. The reason why Shenlong Hall is mysterious and magical has been recorded in history for thousands of years. "Guizhou Tongzhi": "Yunshe Spring is in the north of the province (Tongren Fucheng). When a year is dry, prayer is rain. " Daoguang's Tongren Prefecture Chronicle said: "Yunshe Spring (provincial logistics department) is ten miles north and withered at the age of five. Blood is painted on it, that is, rain."

There are three strange conclusions in Shenlongtan: one is unfathomable; Second, it can forecast the weather; Third, irregular springs flow backwards. How does Shenlongtan predict the weather? When the water in Shenlongtan rises, it will rain, and when it falls into the water, it will be fine. It's always been like this. It's accurate.

Why can Shenlongtan predict the weather? Deep Longtan water is a special kind of deep groundwater-confined water, which is very sensitive to external pressure. However, the air pressure corresponding to sunny days and rainy days is very different. Confined water sensitively feels the change of external pressure, so there is a difference between the increase or decrease of water inflow.

When the outside air pressure is high and the sunshine is sufficient, the water level of the pool will drop; When the outside air pressure is low and cloudy, the water level in the pool will rise! This is the different performance of underground confined water under the action of atmospheric pressure!
