"If you die, you have to love, and if you don't drip, you won't be ......happy," I was excited, what kind of sound did I make? Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info yes, it's the ringtone of my phone, and these memories and strange things make me nervous. I was engrossed in pondering why the words on the Jade Buddha were the same as the words written on the paper that my cousin had given me for more than ten years, when my phone suddenly rang.

Looking at the caller ID, it was Zhang Meng.

"Dongzi, tell you a good news, I have found a source of goods, an antique wholesaler can give us a long-term supply, it is said that this grandson has a good reputation, everything is good, the right way to come, ask us to talk about it one day", Zhang Meng said excitedly on the phone.

"Shelving this first, Zhang Meng, is my uncle here?", I suddenly asked.

"Which uncle?" Zhang Meng was confused.

"Which uncle, of course, is Ling Zun. ”

"Damn, you are talking in a jumping way, like the Korean People's Army reviewing--- jumping forward, who should I say, my father, here. What are you suddenly asking him for?", Zhang Meng asked puzzled.

"Don't ask about this first, I can't tell you on the phone, I'll go over it later, and I'll talk about it in detail when I arrive. ”

After hanging up the phone, I cleaned up, put the little jade Buddha and my cousin's paper with words in my bag, and drove my second-hand Elantra straight to Zhang Meng's house.

When I was a child, I lived in the same compound as Zhang Meng, my father and Zhang Meng's mother were colleagues, and the house in the compound used to be the public housing of a central enterprise, and then the house was sold to employees. When the house price was low in the first two years, my parents and I each bought a commercial house, and then moved out of the compound, and then I saw that the house price had a rising trend, so I took out a loan to buy a two-bedroom apartment in the suburbs, and the house price rose rapidly just after buying, and it doubled several times in a few years, a few days ago I sold the two-bedroom apartment in the suburbs, and earned more than one million, only leaving the one-bedroom house I bought before to live in, my parents and I live in the same community, it is a small three-bedroom. Our original house in the compound has been empty, and we haven't rented it out because of the trouble.

Zhang Meng was in the same class as me in elementary school, and he was very clever, but he was playful, and he was always not good at learning. Zhang Meng's father is an associate professor of the Department of History of Communication University of China, belongs to the pedantic type, well-read, through the ancient and modern, may be the reason why Zhang Meng's mother is usually too busy with work, and has neglected Zhang Meng since he was a child, resulting in Zhang Meng and his father have a world of difference, and then Zhang Meng reluctantly went to a self-examination junior college, after graduation, relying on his flexible brain, can say, do some sales, insurance and other work, recently has been helping me to open an antique shop.

Although Zhang Meng has not studied well since he was a child, he is a very good person, enthusiastic and righteous. Although there is a huge gap between learning and his father, there is one thing that is very similar to his father, that is, there is no economic acumen, I persuaded Zhang Meng and his parents when I bought a house, the house will definitely appreciate in the future, and take advantage of the low housing price to quickly take out a loan to buy a house, but Zhang Meng and his parents did not listen to me at the time, resulting in a two-bedroom apartment in the compound now, in recent years, the country has paid more and more attention to educators, Zhang Meng's father has gradually risen from a lecturer to an associate professor, and the family's economic conditions have improved significantly.

The reason why I was in a hurry to find Zhang Meng's father was that when I was on the phone, it suddenly occurred to me that Zhang Meng's father had a high attainment in history and ancient writing, and he might not know what words were written on the paper of the Jade Buddha and his cousin.

I parked the car downstairs at Zhang Meng's house, went upstairs and knocked on the door, Zhang Meng opened the door, the central heating of the central enterprise house is one good, the heating is very hot in winter, and the wind is blowing so strongly outside, Zhang Meng only wears an autumn coat and pants at home. After beckoning me in, he saw that only Zhang Meng's father was at home, and called uncle, because he was very familiar, he didn't say anything else, and went straight to the point.

I took out the little jade Buddha and the piece of paper that my eldest cousin asked me to keep from my bag, and asked Zhang Meng's father to help see what kind of writing it was and what it was written. The origin of this jade Buddha and paper is not explained.

Zhang Meng's father has a special interest in ancient characters, immediately brought glasses, Zhang Meng brought a magnifying glass, his father picked up the little jade Buddha, looked at it carefully, I pointed to the side and said that the ornamental text is in the placket of this jade Buddha, the words are very small, not easy to see, uncle nodded.

After looking at it for a while, my uncle raised his eyes to look at me, looked at me for a while, frowned, and looked at me again, I was seen by him straight hair, could it be that my uncle suspected that I stole this jade Buddha?

After reading it, I opened the paper that my eldest cousin had given me to show my uncle, who only glanced at it this time and put it on the table next to me.

I couldn't wait to ask, "Uncle, what is this jade Buddha and what is written on the paper?"

Zhang Meng also leaned his neck curiously and listened.

"It's strange, it's strange," said my uncle, as if to himself and as if to answer my words, and then stood up and walked around the house twice with his hands behind his back, before stopping in front of me and staring at my face.

Zhang Meng watched his father's behavior from the side, and turned his face to stare at my face like his father, as if he had never seen me before. I said to myself, 'Do I suddenly have two noses on my face?'

After staring at it for a long time, the uncle spoke: "This jade Buddha is indeed the same text on the paper, and the content is the same." ”

"I know that, too," I said.

The uncle continued: "This is an ancient Western Xia script, and although it is not very common, it is not particularly rare"

Zhang Meng and I listened with pricked up ears, "But there is one thing that is very strange", my uncle frowned again when he said this.

"What's strange?" Zhang Meng and I said almost in unison.

"Let me first tell you about the history of the Tangut script and the composition of the written language", the uncle did not answer our questions, and then said: "In 1038 AD, on the ancient Chinese "Silk Road", Li Yuanhao, a national hero of the Dangxiang, established a feudal kingdom with the Dangxiang clan as the main body, including the Han, Tubo, Uighur and other ethnic groups, calling himself the "Great White High Kingdom", because it is located in the western part of the motherland, it is called "Western Xia" in history, and the capital is Xingqing Mansion, which is today's Yinchuan City. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Li Yuanhao implemented a series of measures to strengthen the national consciousness, and under his initiative, the minister Noli Hitoei presided over the creation of the Tangut script that recorded the language of the party, with a total of more than 6,000 characters. ”

I said in my heart: "You are used to lecturing, you came here to teach us", but I was embarrassed to interrupt, continued to listen, and drank the hot water poured by Zhang Meng.

After the creation of the Tangut script, it was implemented as a "national character", so it was widely used in the Tangut Kingdom. The creation of the Tangut script refers to the "six books" theory of the creation of Chinese characters, and uses the synthesis method to create characters, that is, to create some text elements, that is, the root or mother character that we often say, and then use the synthesis method to reproduce more Tangut characters. In the Tangut script, except for a small part of the characters created directly from the elements of the text, the vast majority of them are synthetic. There are six synthesis methods, including synthesis, phonology, symmetry, interchange, reverse cut, and long tone. ”

Zhang Meng couldn't help it beside him, and interjected: "Dad, you don't need to talk about this, we can't understand it, you just say what is written on it, what's strange?"

Uncle said: "Okay, to put it simply, this Jade Buddha and that piece of paper are written using the interchangeable synthesis method and the reverse cutting synthesis method of the Xixia characters, and there are only three words translated into Chinese---Guo, Xiang, and East"

"Poof", when I heard these three words, a mouthful of water almost squirted out. My big name is "Guo Xiangdong"!

Zhang Meng almost slipped under the chair after hearing this, "What?!", Zhang Meng's eyes widened, "Dad, you're not mistaken, right?"

"That's right, I've been studying these all my life, and it's definitely these three words, and I'm very surprised when I see them," replied my uncle.

Zhang Meng turned his head and looked me up and down for more than five hundred eyes, "Dongzi, I didn't see it, you originally crossed over, and you were so loved by the ancient people, and you engraved your name on the Jade Buddha and passed it on for thousands of years, can you be a thousand-year-old demon?"

"Don't talk nonsense," I said, "there must be some mystery in this." ”

Then he asked the uncle: "Uncle, I heard that you usually like antique calligraphy and painting, and you also have a certain amount of research in this area, help me see if the words on this jade Buddha will be engraved in modern times, and it is not the same age as the jade Buddha." ”

"I was so skeptical at first", the uncle said: "But after carefully looking at the carving and technique of this jade Buddha, and the engraving of the text on it, although I am not a professional researcher of cultural relics, it is obvious that this text and this jade Buddha were carved in the same period, and from the carving techniques and the color of the jade, it is also a cultural relic of the Western Xia period, which is certainly no problem." ”

After listening to me I was dumbfounded, damn, I quit my job and had nothing to do in the alley, just met an old Guo and I talked, to sell me this jade Buddha, I looked at the words on the jade Buddha some familiar and curious to buy it, to the antique shop appraisal said that it was a real thing, the owner of the antique shop to spend 300,000 to buy this jade Buddha, I estimate that this thing is very valuable on the sale of the boss, when going out the boss's expression is very strange, and then wait for Lao Guo for a few days, he did not take the rest of the money and disappeared, recently suddenly remembered that the words on the jade Buddha seem to be very similar to the words written on the paper given to me by the cousin who disappeared more than ten years ago, find the paper to compare, it is actually the same word, take Zhang Meng's father here to see,Actually this jade Buddha is written on my name!And this word was engraved a thousand years ago! It's really evil.,How can I come across so many clever things.,Why didn't I buy a lottery ticket so accurately?

Could it be that someone predicted all this a thousand years ago and joked with me?

I couldn't figure it out. Zhang Meng reminded me: "I think the key to this matter is in that "old Guo", don't you say that he left you an address? ”

That's right, it's still Zhang Meng's brain, why didn't I think that I must find this old Guo and ask about it. Where did I put the address he gave?
