Chapter 038, Chronicle Inscription

"Third child, everyone Xiaoduan has taken the initiative to ask you out, why don't you open up? You go over to have a party in the evening, and then go to her house to borrow a night, and everything will be done. The sister-in-law joked beside her.

"What? This girl doll is the object of the third child, when will you bring it to me to see?" Grandpa even gossiped.

"Grandpa, don't listen to my sister-in-law's nonsense, that's my high school classmate, and now I have something to ask her for help. But if someone is a person in the unit, how can they look up to me? Don't worry, I will definitely find a good granddaughter-in-law to show you. Ye Ziqi hurriedly said.

"Third child, didn't I say you, what's wrong with Xiao Duan? The last time I came to the house, my mother and I both observed and noticed that people are interesting to you.

As the saying goes, men chase women across mountains, women chase men across the veil, you are a big man, you can't let the girls take the initiative to speak, right? The sister-in-law was in a hurry and exposed some secrets.

"Oh, how did you catch up with your sister-in-law in the first place? Ye Ziqi asked with a smile.

"I met your sister-in-law when I was working outside, and then I asked her to watch a horror movie, and she was so scared that she drilled into my arms, and then it was done. The eldest brother said with a smile.

"Phew. The sister-in-law blushed beside her, glared at the eldest brother, hugged Junjie and walked a few steps quickly.

At noon, it was naturally fried small fish with wine, yellow and spicy dices boiled sauerkraut soup, and my grandfather also drank a few cups happily, and after lunch, Ye Ziqi studied the information sent to him by Duan Yanmei when everyone was resting.

L County was established in the 6th year of the founding of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and was established in 135 B.C., with a history of more than 2,100 years, and is bordered by Chongqing, Guizhou and Yunnan provinces and cities.

L County is a large county of cultural relics in the country, with 10 national treasures such as dragon brain bridge, dragon bridge group, colorful dragon dance, Song tomb, etc., is the hometown of Chinese dragon culture, and the dragon culture is rich in content, mainly including dragon dance, dragon bridge, and dragon carving.

The earliest construction time of the Dragon Bridge has been verified is in the Northern Song Dynasty Zhiping period, and the construction of the Ming and Qing dynasties is the most popular. In the Republic of China period and even in modern times, the custom of building bridges and carving dragons is still continuing.

On the main rivers crossed by the official roads, the government presided over and the private sector participated, and the private funds were mostly raised to build dragon bridges on the streams that must pass through the general village roads.

The dragon bridge is more than 100 meters long and 10 meters wide, while the short ones are only about 1 meter long and 40 centimeters wide. The piers are carved with dragons on the upstream side of the river. The round carved dragon is consistent with the size of the bridge, harmonious and unified.

There are more than 140 such dragon bridges preserved in the territory of L County. Among them, as a typical representative, the dragon brain bridge has been a national key cultural relics protection unit.

The dragon bridges in L county are widely distributed in a relatively concentrated area, with a large number and exquisite carvings, and the bridge buildings and dragon carvings constitute a harmonious artistic beauty. This regional cultural phenomenon has historical evidence that it has lasted for nearly 1,000 years from the Song Dynasty to the present, and it is also rare to see in the country.

The construction of Longqiao in L County is related to the integration of ethnic groups, the collision and unity of beliefs, and the continuation of the integration of customs, which is a precious material material of multi-element regional culture.

The dragon carving skills of Longqiao in L County have developed in the inheritance, skillful, bright and comfortable, rough and delicate, and there are exaggerations between realism, which are important historical relics of the historical inheritance and development of Chinese stone carving art, fine arts and dragon culture.

Through the information provided by Duan Yanmei, Ye Ziqi has a more detailed understanding of the dragon culture and Longqiao culture in L County, and also has a clear impression.

"It turns out that there is such a rich culture in my hometown, and it is also a thousand-year-old G county, in addition to dragon dances and dragon carvings, it seems that there are too many cultures worth excavating and promoting. Ye Ziqi said with a sigh.

Although he studied in the prefecture until he graduated from high school, he was limited by the conditions at that time, and he did not have a sample course, so he did not know much about his hometown.

However, he knew about the Dragon Brain Bridge before, and he had been there with his classmates in high school, but at that time he was only amazed by the magnificence of the Dragon Bridge, and did not learn too much about its culture and history.

The more he knew, the more excited Ye Ziqi became, he immediately went downstairs, found a hand bucket, and a brush rushed to the river, and it was not long before he left the live broadcast.

After arriving at the river, Ye Ziqi turned on the live broadcast, but he didn't say anything, and there were few viewers at this time, so he brought water from the river, washed the soil on the stone tablet, and carefully brushed it with a brush.

"Good afternoon, everyone, you should see what I'm doing, right? That's right, just clean the stone tablet I saw in the morning, clean the dirt on it, and see what is written.

I've been doing it for almost an hour, and I started the live broadcast half an hour earlier than the agreed time, and I don't want everyone to be bored to watch me brush the stone tablet, but fortunately, it's almost cleaned up now, and finally I can see the text on it clearly by flushing two buckets of water.

However, there is good news and not so good news, the good news is that the text on it is basically clear, and the bad news is that there is a large mass of text in the middle that has been completely blurred.

It's the middle position, and it's also the place where everyone usually steps on the most when walking, and it's the most worn here, so the text is basically unreadable. ”

While Ye Ziqi was talking, he called two buckets of water to wash the stone stele, fortunately, it was more than ten meters away from the river, and he quickly completed all the cleaning work, and began to zoom in on the camera and close-up the text on it.

"The first few words are 'Liren Township Shuanglong Bridge Construction Donation Record', oh, I understand, this is a merit tablet, which records the record of donations from the surrounding large families when the Shuanglong Bridge was built.

All the villagers and descendants of later generations, the old bridge of Maxi River in Liren Township was washed away by floods, and now all the squires have reached out to rebuild the Dragon Bridge, and have contributed money and food to help them, so they will remember it and pass it on to future generations, and they will not forget it for a thousand years.

The following row is full of names, let me see if I can see who are the people, Zhang Wanfu, Zhang Wangao, Zhang Wanqing, Zhang Dailiang, Zhang Daifu, Zhang Daichong, Hu Changxu, Hu Changshou, Hu Changlu......

There are a few rows of names below that can't be seen clearly, and some can still see a word, but it has been worn out, and a ranking of words can be seen below, it seems that there were more surnames Zhang and surnames Hu, Zhou, and Zhao around at that time.

After two years, the new bridge was re-established, the dragon carved Zhentao, God blessed Fengshun, Liren a township, full of health, repaired bridges and paved roads, good and great, described in the end, remembered in the heart, our descendants, should be remembered in Zi.

The final payment is the memorial monument of the reconstruction of the new bridge in Renxiang in the eighteenth year of Yongle. That's all there is to it, but there are many things that come out of it that give us some insight into the history and culture of the time. ”

Ye Ziqi explained these text contents to the audience live, and at the same time added the situation of dragon culture and dragon bridge culture in L County, and finally filmed the content on this stone stele.

"Lao Tie, our Chinese nation is the descendant of the dragon, and there are many dragon cultures in the inheritance all over the country, in the next few days, the anchor may take you to visit the field to understand the dragon culture and dragon bridge culture in my hometown.

I heard that there is a teacher Zhang Feiyun in our L county, who has spent more than ten years professionally filming various dragon bridges, and there will be an event tomorrow, and the anchor will broadcast live to share with you.

Tomorrow we are going to see the National Key Cultural Protection Unit Dragon Brain Bridge, which is said to be comparable to the famous historical bridges such as Zhaozhou Bridge, Lugou Bridge, and Anping Bridge. "Ye Ziji ended the live broadcast and decided to go home first in the afternoon and go to the county tomorrow.
