Chapter Eighty-Six: The Dead Old Man
"Xiao Mo, I call you Xiao Mo, wow?"
"Good, good. Mo Fan nodded again and again.
Grandma Zhou's smile suddenly became a little infiltrating: "I heard Lao Zhao say something about you abroad, seeing that you are not very old, have you worked hard abroad alone all these years?"
"It's okay, it's not hard. Mo Fan's cheeks twitched slightly.
"Oh~, how old are you this year?"
"Two out of thirty. ”
Grandma frowned: "Look at your appearance, twenty-five or six at most." ”
Mo Fanbi drew a scissor hand: "I look good." ”
"Hahaha......" Grandma was amused by Mo Fan again: "32 years old, should you start a family?"
"Not really. I've been busy with my career all these years, does my grandmother want to introduce me to a girl?" Mo Fan said with a grin.
"Go. Grandma pretended to be angry and gently patted Mo Fan on the back......
"Hiss!" Mo Fan gasped, and Grandma Zhou didn't know that Mo Fan had a back injury, so she slapped it directly on his injured area. The wound on Mo Fan's back has healed, it is the bone of the spine, and there is still a faint pain, and he can't stand the strength.
"Did I hurt you?"
"I accidentally injured my back earlier, and it hurt a little. ”
"Grandma didn't mean it. Does it hurt?"
"No, it doesn't hurt if you don't touch it. ”
"I do have a granddaughter, but she hasn't graduated from college yet...... Grandma Zhou really thought about it seriously: "Well, you wait for grandma to help you with your staff officer, and think about introducing you to a beautiful and good girl." ”
"Grandma, I'm kidding. Mo Fan said embarrassedly: "Don't tell you, my family is also very anxious about my marriage, as long as I go home, I will force me to go on a blind date, and I will suffer from blind date phobia." ”
"Hahaha...... Grandma thinks your parents are doing the right thing. Getting married and starting a career are the two major themes of life, and "The Book of Rites and Universities" has a record: Those who are clearly virtuous in the world need to cultivate themselves and govern the country and level the world. In short, it's about starting a family. Starting a family and starting a career, this order is not a casual blurt out, which has its own exquisiteness. Starting a business is a lifelong goal, and in comparison, starting a family is relatively a golden age. Parents want their children to have a happy family, but career is the next ......"
Mo Fan smiled and nodded.
I went to the market to buy vegetables, and when I went back to the courtyard, Professor Zhao was sitting in the courtyard drinking tea.
"Professor Zhao. Mo Fan shouted.
"Hmm. Professor Zhao replied lukewarmly.
Grandma Zhou was suddenly unhappy, and said, "Dead old man, Xiao Mo came in the morning, what's the matter with you, the phone won't be turned on." ”
"The phone is out of battery. Professor Zhao instantly confessed and looked at Mo Fan with a smile: "Xiao Mo, come and sit down and drink tea." ”
"Hey. Mo Fan sat down and took the flower tea handed by the professor: "Professor, I'll come over this time ......"
"Did you bring the oracle? show me and help you identify it. Professor Zhao knew Mo Fan's intention, and when he was in Yukon Tombstone Mountain, Mo Fan was particularly interested and interested in the oracle bone inscriptions unearthed from the Mobia site.
Mo Fan went to the living room to take out the box, opened it, and took out two pieces of tortoise shell wrapped in a plastic bag.
"Quite well-preserved tortoiseshell oracle bone inscriptions. Professor Zhao looked at the tortoiseshell and became interested.
Oracle bones have animal bones, tortoise shells, and even human bones.
There are more than a dozen human bone inscriptions unearthed in China, and the text is engraved on the skull, which is guessed to be the leader of a rival tribe who captured it, and the inscriptions are all sacrificed to ancestors.
Tortoise shells are usually used for divination, and the ancients were superstitious, and wizards had to count a hexagram for anything bigger.
Fortune tellers also use animal bones, which are made called 'dragon bones'. In addition to divination, animal bones are more widely used for memorization.
The ruins of Mobia are inextricably linked to Chinese civilization. Only about 10 percent of the oracle bones unearthed there are divination oracle bones, and the remaining 90 percent are oracle bones that record legends.
In the divination oracle bones, there are very few tortoise shells used, tortoise shells are relatively rare things, and they are usually used by wizards who have the power of divination. The tortoiseshell inscriptions that have been discovered are mostly used to question wars and disasters.
……
The tortoiseshell inscriptions unearthed from the Mobia site, and the tortoiseshell divination are all major events related to the survival of the tribe.
In the Mobian civilization, the Mobian tortoiseshell script is different from other animal bone scripts. It is speculated that the text of the Mobian tortoiseshell script belongs exclusively to the highest level of soothsayers...... But the text is very similar to the oldest oracle bone inscription in China. Therefore, translating the Mobia tortoiseshell script is the easiest for Chinese oracle bone researchers.
The moment Professor Zhao saw these two pieces of tortoiseshell inscriptions, he had already determined that they came from the Mobian ruins.
"Yan San has no meals, QD southwest and southwest. "Professor Zhao showed excitement and excitement: "Great, great." This is the mystery of the disappearance of the Morbian civilization......"
At the beginning of the year, Professor Zhao was puzzled at first, but then he slapped the table excitedly, and his face turned red.
Mo Fan basically understood Professor Zhao's words, and hurriedly put the oracle bone back. The word 'Yan' appears countless times in the oracle bone inscriptions unearthed at the Mobia site, and after repeated scrutiny, the word 'Yan' represented that tribe at that time. The word 'three' is an imaginary number, three bars, and five bars often appear in oracle bone inscriptions, all of which represent the meaning of many. The tortoiseshell inscription roughly means 'the tribe has no food, which direction should the east, west, north and south go?' ’
Bu is in doubt, and where is he going.
This piece of tortoiseshell is actually only 13 characters.
'Yan San no meal, QD southwest and north', these nine characters are neatly carved and are in the center of the tortoiseshell.
'Bu is in doubt, what is going to be', these eight words are not at all. The other 4 characters are east, west, north and south......
The word 'Bu' is not on the tortoiseshell inscription from beginning to end.
Mo Fan is also a person who has studied bone armor divination, as long as the translation of the first nine words is good, Professor Zhao's translation of this tortoise shell is not bad.
'Bu' is a crack shape that appears after the tortoiseshell is burned. The oldest divination technique is to burn tortoise shells with fire, and predict good luck and bad luck based on cracks. After the "burning divination", there is "asking the turtle to say divination", and the way of throwing is used to seek truth and ask for good luck.
Mo Fan quickly put away the tortoise carapace, and the two pieces were put away together. As Professor Zhao translated, the value of this tortoiseshell inscription is greater.
There are cracks in the tortoiseshell, which is an important basis for studying the whereabouts of the Mobian civilization. Also, Mo Fan had two tortoiseshell inscriptions in his hands, one was found in the iron box, and the other was on the top of the sacrificial pit. The Mobian tribe, or the 'Yan' tribe, is supposed to be the tombstone mountain that left after the divination question......
Professor Zhao was excited and excited by the major discovery of the tortoiseshell inscription, Mo Fan 'swished' to take away the oracle bone inscription, and saw that he put the tortoiseshell inscription into the box, and he was so angry that he almost didn't have direct cerebral congestion: "You ......"
Mo Fan turned his head and looked innocent: "This piece of oracle bone inscription is too bad, it must be fake, fake." You don't think you have seen it...... The ......" Mo Fan held the box in his arms, looked at the kitchen and shouted: "Grandma Zhou, I still remember some things, so I will leave first." ”
"Hey, Xiao Mo, Xiao Mo...... Eat before leaving. ”
Mo Fan hurriedly retired: "No, no, no...... I really remember something. ”
Professor Zhao was angry, and Grandma Zhou hurriedly caught up with Mo Fan, grabbed him, turned her head to look at the professor and shouted, "Dead old man, what's the matter with you?"
