Chapter 354: Shocking the World
In the remaining week, Wu Tianyuan, with the help of polar bears, finally smuggled all the treasures that could be transported to the capital, vacated a small museum of ancient civilizations, and arranged the Acre civilization. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Curator, this is the sixteenth call, and the Louvre in France can't sit still!"
"It's not just France, but the United Kingdom, the United States, Germany, and Japan are going crazy!"
Hu Jianmin said excitedly: "The ancient civilization of Aka that you discovered this time, as soon as the news came out, it shocked the world!" Thanks to the best of the best of you, countless archaeologists are now flying to Ecuador to eat our leftovers! ”
Wu Tianyuan smiled slightly, there is no way, the first strike is stronger, and now he also feels the pleasure of protecting the civilization of all mankind. In the past, the Eight-Nation Coalition used the war to loot cultural relics in China, in the name of protecting cultural heritage?
Lao Tzu is also protecting heritage today, how can I love it!
"No one dares to think about your identity now, but many museums have sent invitations, hoping to exchange some cultural relics, you see?"
"Let them send a list over, ask for the best cultural relics, and we will decide what to exchange!"
Lao Ren left arrogantly, his phone has been blown up in the past few days, and he is begging for himself by relying on relationships, this feeling is so cool!
"This batch is the pre-Qin bamboo slips?"
Unexpectedly, the first batch of exchanges was not the British Museum and the Louvre, but a small museum in Japan.
A roll of bamboo slips is spread out on the table, the bamboo slips are made up of hundreds of pieces of bamboo pieces that are about two feet long and about 2 fingers wide, each piece of bamboo is written in a line, the word is a big seal, the font commonly used in the late Western Zhou Dynasty.
The characters are very beautiful and unique, warm, luxurious, ethereal, clean and neat with a pen, without hooking and drawing, which is reminiscent of Hongyi's transcendent calligraphy.
"Lao Guo, look?"
Guo Jing, an honorary expert in the identification of ancient books in the Palace Museum, has a deep attainment in this area, and has systematically studied the Great Seal, and this time Wu Tianyuan specially invited him to appraise.
He took the bamboo slip on the table in his hand and translated it word by word, "It is said that the heavenly palace clamps the bell and the yin sound, and its phase is from the number of yang, and its yang does not shoot." No shot on the birth of the middle Lu, the middle of the Lu and the underground palace of the same position, do not use the middle Lu on the birth of the yellow bell, the yellow bell under the birth of Lin Zhong, the forest bell of the underground palace. ”
"This is the Book of Music."
Before Guo Jing finished reading the contents of the bamboo slips, Old Man Ouyang had already exclaimed loudly, because he was too excited, his voice trembled a little. Then he turned to Wu Tianyuan and asked eagerly, "Are these bamboo slips real?" Are there any bamboo slips that belong to the same book as this scroll? ”
Wu Tianyuan nodded and said, "There are a total of 330 volumes in the same book as this bamboo slip. ”
After speaking, he pointed to the 330 bamboo slips neatly placed on the table and said, "These bamboo slips are." ”
From the Warring States period to the Wei and Jin dynasties, the writing material of the ancients was bamboo slips, which were woven into a book with long and narrow pieces of bamboo made of cutting. Since there are not many words written on a piece of bamboo slips, a book slip often has to be loaded with several carts. The ancients said that 'learning rich five cars' refers to the simple scrolls that read more than five cars.
The Book of Music is written from 330 volumes of bamboo script, which can almost fit four or five carts.
Old man Ouyang walked quickly to the case regardless of his gaffe, picked up a roll of bamboo slips, spread it out and looked down for a while, then raised his head, his eyes were round, his face showed an incredible expression, and he said in shock, "These are all of them, I didn't expect to see the entire "Book of Music" here. ”
You must know that the pre-Qin academic tradition is long and profound, and the pre-Qin academic is in the Six Classics. "Book of Songs", "Book of Rites", "Book of Rites", "Book of Music", "Zhou Yi", "Spring and Autumn", among which there are important academics such as "Book of Music" and "Spring and Autumn".
Later, the Four Books and Five Classics, the Five Classics refer to the "Book of Songs", "Book of Rites", "Zhou Yi", "Spring and Autumn", why there is no "Book of Music", because the "Book of Music" is dead.
The "Book of Music" was destroyed by Qin Huo, and after Qin Huo, "Music Classic" was no longer circulating, and musicians could only play but could not speak theories.
In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the historian Ban Gu said, "The ancients took "Yi", "Book", "Poem", "Rite", "Music" and "Spring and Autumn" as the "Six Classics", and then to the Qin Burnt Book, the "Book of Music" died, and now the "Yi", "Book", "Poem", "Rite" and "Spring and Autumn" are the Five Classics.
Shen Yue of the Southern Dynasty wrote in the Book of Song. Le Zhi also said: "And Qin burned the classics, the Book of Music died, Han Xing, and Lejia had a system, but it can remember its sonorous encouragement, but it can't say its meaning." ”
Understanding the importance of the Book of Music to the study of pre-Qin academic culture and the inheritance of traditional Chinese culture, it is not difficult to understand the gaffes of the old men.
What does this bamboo slip of the Book of Music represent? It represents the most important link missing in the pre-Qin era, which buried the origin of traditional Chinese culture, 'music'.
It has always been said that China is a country of etiquette, and what is the most important part of etiquette is 'music'. From ancient times to modern times, Chinese cultural scholars and literati all sighed, regretted, and hated Qin Shi Huang's book-burning and Confucianism when they talked about the loss of the "Book of Music".
Now the birth of 330 volumes of bamboo slips in the Book of Music, these bamboo abbreviations are rare and rare, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are treasures.
Ordinary cultural relics, such as porcelain, one is that they are beautiful and have artistic appreciation. Second, they contain Chinese porcelain culture. But there is very little to be carried on each piece of porcelain.
From the 330 volumes of bamboo slips in the Book of Music, it is first of all the carrier of words, and through the study of these words, people can clearly understand the academic, historical and cultural history of the pre-Qin period. Secondly, the pre-Qin scholarship in the Six Classics, the "Book of Music" is an important classic, the "Book of Music" was destroyed in the Qin fire, so that the literati and scholars of all dynasties and dynasties all regretted that the birth of the "Book of Music" buried the most important part of the origin of Chinese traditional culture in the pre-Qin culture, "music".
"This is the true treasure of the country." For a long time, everyone raised their heads from the 330 bamboo slips of the "Book of Music" and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
There are also a number of "Shangshu" found here, some of which have hand-me-downs, but there are many differences in the sentences, and even the titles are not the same, but more are unseen texts that have not been seen before, or although they are found in the hand-me-downs, the latter is a pseudo-ancient text. This will greatly change the face of the study of ancient Chinese history, and its value is difficult to estimate. ”
From the "Book of Music" bamboo slips, to the "Shiben" fifteen bamboo slips, and then to the "Shangshu" many 160 volumes of bamboo slips, then there are amazing discoveries in the bamboo slips, some bamboo slips record the history from the early years of the Western Zhou Dynasty to the middle of the Warring States period, and many of the contents are known for the first time.
Some bamboo slips record the music poems from the early years of the Western Zhou Dynasty to the middle of the Warring States period with major historical events as the content, and after the Qin Dynasty, all of them have perished.
Some bamboo slips record secrets that have been lost in history for a long time.
Some bamboo slips record many articles such as "poems", "books", and Baijiayu, most of which have been lost.
Wu Tianyuan waved his hand and said domineeringly: "We have changed these!" (To be continued.) )
