Chapter 1144: The sky is raining, and the ghost is crying at night
For readers in this world, if there are people who are familiar with history, they all know Cangjie as a person, and they know that his surname is Hou Gang, and he is a historian of the Yellow Emperor.
But that's all, the deeds of Cangjie have not been handed down.
Now seeing Li Fan's title of "Cangjie Characters", I can't help but be excited, Cangjie really did such an earth-shattering thing?
And Cangjie is the historian of the Yellow Emperor, and this matter must also have something to do with the Yellow Emperor.
Everyone couldn't wait to look down.
Legend has it that Cangjie was born with two eyes and four eyes, a native of Nanle Wu Village, and a historian of Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor.
At that time, there was no writing in the world, and people were knotting ropes to keep records, big things in a big knot, small things in a small knot, and connected things in a chain of knots.
Later, it developed to use knives and carved symbols on wood and bamboo as notes.
However, with the development of history, the gradual progress of civilization, the complexity of things, and the variety of famous objects, the method of knotting and carving wood is far from being able to meet the needs.
Legend has it that once Cangjie provided the Yellow Emperor with wrong historical facts from the history books recorded by the knot, causing the Yellow Emperor to lose the border negotiations with the Yan Emperor.
This made Cangjie ashamed, and he thought that the knot record was far from meeting the current needs.
So what should I do? Cangjie thinks hard every day and every night.
One day, when Cangjie participated in a group hunt, and when he came to a three-way intersection, several old people argued about which way to go.
An old man insisted on going east, saying that there were antelopes. An old man was going north, saying that he could catch up with the deer not far ahead. An old man wanted to go west, saying that there were two tigers, and if he didn't kill them in time, he would miss the opportunity.
Cangjie asked, it turned out that they were all looking at the ground and the footprints of the beast.
Cangjie suddenly rejoiced in his heart, "Since a footprint represents a beast, why can't I use a symbol to express what I want to express?"
After that, Cangjie thought about it day and night, observed everywhere, and saw the distribution of the stars in the sky, the appearance of the veins of the mountains and rivers on the ground, the traces of birds, beasts, insects and fish, and the shape of plants and trees.
Then, according to the traces observed, they traced and painted, created a variety of symbols, and determined the meaning of each symbol.
According to his own mind, Cangjie used symbols to piece together several paragraphs, and showed them to others, and after his explanation, others could understand it.
Cangjie was so excited that he called the symbol he had created a "character".
Cangjie showed the "word" to the Yellow Emperor, who was very happy and praised it.
The Yellow Emperor asked Cangjie to continue to make more characters, and at the same time to go to various tribes to teach people to learn these characters.
At this point, human society finally has words.
The Cangjie character creation has undoubtedly made immortal achievements for the reproduction and prosperity of the Chinese nation.
According to legend, on the day when Cangjie succeeded in making characters, a strange thing happened, that day it rained like rain during the day, and I heard the ghost crying at night.
As the so-called rain in the sky, the ghost cries at night, shocking the earth!
......
After reading "Cangjie Characters", everyone couldn't suppress their excitement and excitement.
This is a written word, which has been used by the Chinese people for thousands of years, and its importance and significance need not be said.
The Internet has long been lively.
"The significance of Cangjie's success in creating characters is so great that even heaven and earth have had a vision. The sky is raining, the ghosts are crying at night, this is all the earth-shattering, crying ghosts and gods. ”
"Absolutely earth-shattering, weeping ghosts. However, this 'Tianyu millet' is easy to understand, millet is grain, God thinks that Cangjie has succeeded in making words, and should be celebrated, so he will send grain to fund the people. But what is this ghost crying in the night?"
"Hey, hey, that's not easy to understand? You think, you can record things with words, ghosts, you must be doing bad things. Now, all the bad things they did can be recorded, and they naturally cry. ”
"What was said upstairs made sense, and I was speechless. ”
"Why do ghosts cry? This is really worth studying, I think it should be that with words, the wisdom of the people is open, the people's morality is leaving, deception and cunning, fighting for killing is born from this, and there will never be peace in the world, even ghosts will not be at peace, so ghosts are going to cry. ”
"Well, I'd rather believe that buddy's explanation. ”
"Haha! Let's talk about it. Who let Mr. Li Fan only have the words 'rain in the sky, ghosts crying at night, earth-shattering!'. ”
“......”
"The rain in the sky, the ghost crying at night, earth-shattering!" This is the vision of heaven and earth after Cangjie's successful wording.
This shows that the significance of Cangjie's success in making characters is very significant, and many people are very excited about it.
However, "Tianyusu" is easy to understand, and "Ghost Night Crying" makes people talk about it, people Cangjie successfully made words, what are you crying at night as a ghost?
Many people have their own understandings and explanations, and they are all decent, and there are some truths, and everyone is fighting for each other.
Everyone thinks that "the sky is raining, the ghost cries at night" was compiled by Li Fan himself, but a Weibo by the famous historian Cen Geng made everyone suddenly realize.
"In the miscellaneous book "Huainanzi", there is such a record, 'Jiesheng has four eyes, one thing is done, the sky rains, and the ghost cries at night. The meaning of this sentence is not difficult to understand, saying that Cangjie was born with four eyes, because he did a certain thing, and the sky rained, and the ghost cried at night.
Before, everyone didn't understand what kind of earth-shattering event Cangjie had accomplished? Today, I watched Li Fan Xiaoyou's "Cangjie Characters", and finally solved the doubts that have been plaguing the historical circles. It turned out that it was the success of creating the word. ”
The famous historian Shen Cong also wrote on Weibo: "Cangjie Makes Characters", of course, is a myth and legend created by Li Fan Xiaoyou, but it can be seen from the records in "Huainanzi" that this is not exactly a myth and legend.
There may be Cangjie people in history, of course, in real history, the text should not have been created by Cangjie alone.
Cangjie is very likely to be the promoter and arranger of my Chinese writing, and he still has immortal merits for writing.
The true origin of the written word is difficult to verify, and may always remain a mystery. But now, we have the legend of "Cangjie Characters", and that's enough. ”
After reading the Weibo of the two experts, everyone suddenly realized that "the rain in the sky, the ghost cries at night" was not made up by Li Fan at will, but there is a real historical record.
And this undoubtedly makes the legend of "Cangjie Characters" more real and reliable.
Of course, even if there is no record in history, "Tianyu Su, ghosts cry at night", everyone also has that familiar, mysterious and mysterious feeling, this "Cangjie Characters", is a real myth and legend that has been lost in history.
