Chapter 179: The Forest of Ancient Steles
After tidying up his clothes, Wang Yao took a car and went directly to the Beilin Museum in addition to the hotel with his bag on his back, and went directly to the Forest of Steles Museum by taking a taxi with the Xianyang driver in the car, and had to sigh the enthusiasm of the people in the northwest.

Wang Yao doesn't often take taxis, but he has done it a few times, and the drivers in Hangzhou don't like to chat very much, but the drivers in Beijing and Xianyang are very good at chatting, and there will be no topics along the way.
Arrived at the gate of the Forest of Steles, the newly built antique building looked very bold, and there were many tourists coming and going at the door, Wang Yao bought a ticket at the door and went in to wait for Zhao to explain first.
Entering the gate, you can see a two-story pavilion, with a plaque hanging on it, Wang Yao swept his eyes and could identify these two words as Lin Zexu's words, Lin Zexu's words are in shape, it is a combination of standard traditional grass, and Lin's regular script is famous all over the world, and the two of Yan tendon and willow bones are neutralized and integrated.
Moreover, Lin Zexu is a clear person and is highly valued by the emperor, so he is contaminated with a righteous dragon spirit, coupled with his love for the nation and the country, his words will make people feel a strong sense of calm and serenity, heroic righteousness, without a little awkward hypocrisy and deliberate wind and snow.
Lin Zexu's words make people feel refreshed at a glance.
Words are like people, Lin Zexu has indeed integrated himself into the Taoist characters.
The inscription on this plaque is 'Forest of Steles', and the stele of the Forest of Steles is missing a skim above, and Wang Yao heard several tourists in front of him laughing at the person who wrote was illiterate.
Wang Yao slightly, stepped forward and said with a smile, "Excuse me." ”
The tourists in front seemed to be a group of several college students, about the same age as Wang Yao, and when they heard someone talking, they looked back at Wang Yao vigilantly, and then everyone's faces showed a moment of astonishment.
After all, Wang Yao can now eat with his face, coupled with the warm temperament on his body, which adds countless good impressions to people.
"Hello, is there something wrong?" One of the leading girls came back to her senses and looked at Wang Yao with blinking eyes, her eyes flashing with brilliance.
"I just heard you guys discussing these two words incorrectly, so I took the liberty to interrupt you. Wang Yao grinned and showed a kind smile, "The word is not wrong. ”
The girls paused for a moment and pointed to the plaque on it, "But the inscription is missing." ”
These two words were written by Mr. Lin Zexu, who sold cigarettes in Humen. Wang Yao smiled: "He shouldn't make a typo." ”
Everyone was stunned.
"Lend me a little of your water. Wang Yao picked up a branch on the grass next to him and said to the girl in the lead.
The girl handed the water bottle to Wang Yao.
Wang Yao poured water on the ground, then dipped it with a tree branch and began to write on the masonry floor.
People were surprised to see Wang Yao on the ground with the branches in his hand, writing out words one by one, Wang Yao wrote the book, horizontal and vertical, and the rules gave people the feeling of reading a printed book.
"Wow, what a beautiful word. Several of the girls whispered, their eyes becoming clearer and clearer as they looked at Wang Yao.
Wang Yao wrote a total of 'humble' words, which are generally the same, but the first four are all without the above skimming, only the last two words have, after writing Wang Yao straightened his waist, at this time he was surrounded by a lot of tourists, this is the gate, the place with the most traffic, enter the door and see a thin boy writing on the ground, everyone wants to see a lively.
Wang Yao pointed to the ground with a branch and introduced, "These four words are the Song Dynasty before, from the Spring and Autumn Period to the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the word 'humble', when this word was made, it was a hand holding a 'A' to refer to a person with a humble status, and some people said that this 'A' word is a kind of wine vessel in ancient times, so this word did not have the above when making the word." ”
Everyone looked at the humble word in front of them again, and suddenly felt that it was indeed an image.
"Later, after the Song Dynasty, when the Great Liao was prosperous, the Khitan tribe was a branch of the Xianbei tribe, so there was an extra touch on the word Bei, which means no, and it also means that 'do not move' is also a kind of hope and expectation of the Han people for the Xianbei people, so this one was added. Wang Yao explained with a smile.
The crowd let out a burst of exclamations and indignant discussions, and the crowd gathered more and more.
"This is the process of development when making words, and Chinese calligraphy is very particular, such as opening a book, it pays attention to horizontal and vertical, rules and regulations, and symmetry left and right, so when writing the book, I am not willing to use the stele with one more skimming, so Mr. Lin Zexu is not wrong with this word, no matter from the perspective of words, or from the perspective of calligraphy. Wang Yao said with a smile as he looked around at the tourists
"The Chinese character is broad and profound, and very interesting, pay attention to an artistic conception, in different environments, this word is also changeable, but it does not mean wrong, because the current simplified Chinese characters are also translated from the ancient characters of the past, and I can't lose my current simplified Chinese characters is the only standard. ”
After Wang Yao finished speaking, he bowed slightly to the crowd.
I don't know who took the lead in applauding, which made Wang Yao a little embarrassed.
"Young man, you know a lot, you're the docent here, right?" asked an aunt with sunglasses with a smile.
"No, I'm also a tourist, and when I came to visit, I saw that these classmates had a misunderstanding of Chinese characters, so I had a mouthful. Wang Yao smiled and arched his hand, "If you are presumptuous, it is really a love word." ”
The girls had red cheeks, I don't know if they were shy or ashamed, and they also learned Wang Yao's movements and arched their hands, which was a little awkward, "It's because we are ignorant." ”
"There is a specialization in the art industry, after all, everyone is used to reading simplified Chinese characters now, and they don't write calligraphy very much. Wang Yao said with a smile.
"Yes, my son doesn't even know some of the commonly used traditional Chinese characters now, and it seems that he has forgotten something. An older grandfather sighed.
"Young man, let's go together, you give us a good talk, it's very professional and interesting to listen to you. The aunt said with a smile.
Wang Yao's expression froze, looking at the crowd around him and smiling and waving his hand, "I'm sorry, I'm not a professional docent, just a calligraphy enthusiast, and I'm waiting for someone, but if you meet it when you walk around the garden, I can buy some knowledge for everyone." ”
The crowd seemed to be a little dissatisfied, thinking that Wang Yao was putting up a fight, and then a middle-aged man said, "People are also tourists, not staff, they are not obliged to take us on a tour, don't make trouble." Saying that, he took his wife and son to Wang Yao and took the lead in leaving.
The others also had different faces, a little smiled kindly at Wang Yao, and some pouted disdainfully, in short, the crowd dispersed.
Wang Yao scratched his head and sighed helplessly, people's hearts are unpredictable.
"Where are you from, young man?" asked the old lady who was the first to talk to without leaving, smiling.
"I'm from Hangzhou, and I'm going to college over there, what about you, aunt?" Wang Yao asked with a smile, his eyes scanning the door, explaining to Zhao why he hadn't come yet.
"Southern, no wonder they look so delicate, so handsome. The old lady smiled and said, "You specialize in learning calligraphy?"
"Hobbies, I think it's quite interesting. Wang Yao said with a smile, throwing the branch in his hand back into the grass, "Auntie, are you traveling alone?"
"No, I'm a local, and I often come here to see and walk. The old lady said with a smile.
Looking at the old lady's smile, Wang Yao inexplicably had a bad premonition, and at this time, a hurried figure of Zhao Explanation appeared at the door, and Wang Yao waved his hand to greet him.
"Mr. Wang, I'm really sorry, there is something wrong in the museum. Zhao trotted over, wiped the sweat from his forehead and smiled.
"It's okay, I'm up late, I'm sorry for you. Wang Yao smiled and said, "Let's go." ”
"Hmm. Zhao nodded, swept the handwriting on the ground and quipped, "Yo, Mr. Wang's Mobao." ”
"Don't make fun of me, just now a few tourists discussed that the inscription was wrong, and I didn't hold back for a while and said two more words, but I didn't expect to ask for a no. Wang Yao said with a dry smile.
Indeed, Mr. Lin Zexu's two words, as long as they come from tourism, 99% of people feel that they are wrongly written, which makes people cry and laugh, I don't know whether it is better to say that they don't know are fearless, or they are ignorant. Zhao said with a smile.
"It's not their problem, it's mainly that the Chinese teacher in school is irresponsible, simplified Chinese characters are not the only standard for measuring Chinese characters, this concept should be established for students, if people don't use simplified Chinese characters as the standard, then the inheritance of Chinese characters in the future is really a big problem." Wang Yao chuckled.
Zhao explained that he glanced sideways, and Wang Yao smiled and said, "Mr. Wang always hits the nail on the head. ”
"I'm just talking about fallacies. Wang Yao chuckled.
The stele forest, the first Tang Dynasty was established, in order to preserve the "Thirteen Classics" and "Shitai Filial Piety Scripture" in the Guozi Prison, began to collect the world's stone tablets, and later moved the Confucian Temple to the stele forest during the Northern Song Dynasty, so the stele forest and the Confucian Temple, the school gradually merged with the later dynasties to repair and maintain the stele forest, and finally became such an international level stele museum.
The name of the stele forest comes from the stone stele in the park as many as the jungle, yesterday Zhao explained and introduced, there are more than 8,000 of them, if all are sorted out, the number will be more than 10,000, and each one is the treasure of the country.
Among them, the book sage Wang Xizhi's "Tang Ji Wang Xi's Holy Religion Preface Tablet", as well as the "Heyang Order Cao Quan Tablet" that records the important historical records such as Cao Quan's suppression of the Yellow Turban Uprising and the Zhangjiao Uprising in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the beginning of the stele forest, the "Shitai Filial Piety Classic" prefaced by Tang Xuanzong Li Longji, as well as the "Kaicheng Stone Classic" of the most complete preserved cultural original classic in China, "The End of the Ancient Book, the Ancestor of the Present Book", and the Qin Dynasty Li Si Stone Seal "Yi (Yi) Mountain Carved Stone" that Wang Yao was most concerned about, recorded the various deeds of Qin Shi Huang when he sealed the Zen.
These are all national treasure-level stone monuments.
