Chapter 1241: Eight Mysterious Ancient Characters!
"Forget it. Let's identify it first, this symbol comes from the "Hongyan Heavenly Book", and the specific meaning can only be compared with the explanation of each symbol in the Hongyan Heavenly Book. ”
Xiang Dongliu picked up the pen, lightly wrote a line of small characters on the copy, and quickly swept the other symbols to see if they were all written with the symbols in the Hongyan Heavenly Book.
If so, the next work will be much simpler, as long as you find the explanation of each symbol in the Hongyan Heavenly Book, you can decipher it comparatively. But if not, naturally there is something else to do.
"Brother, how did your search go?"
Xu Yuanyuan was suddenly surprised: "Sister is already messy!" The symbols recorded in this black notebook actually contain a variety of fonts! There are Cangjie books, Xia Yu books, and Hongyan Tianshu, and even others! It's so complicated! It's like writing in English, French, Spanish, and other foreign Chinese languages, and it's really impossible to translate without knowing multiple languages. ”
"And this?"
When I heard it, I immediately encyclopedized the Cangjie book and Xia Yu book, and then found that the Cangjie book only had 28 words, and the legend was written by Cangjie, which is the oldest existing text in China.
However, many scholars suspect that it was written by Liu Xin, a native of the Western Han Dynasty, and others believe that it was a sacrificial text written by the ancients in the ancient Yi script. It remains to be studied who wrote the Cangjie book and what it is about. At present, the oldest text known from the physical object is the oracle bone inscription, which is not detailed before the Xia Dynasty.
And Xia Yu book, it is said that the ancestor of the Xia Dynasty royal family who has made meritorious efforts in water control - Dayu made the book or the handwriting, that is, the Zhong Ding book or the moth plaque seal, a total of only 12 words.
Because the Xia Yu book uses a mixture of ancient Yi script and oracle bone inscription, the Xia Yu book is even more difficult to interpret than the Cangjie book, which shows that the Xia culture has a high degree of complexity, and there are different opinions on the translation, and there is no unified statement at all.
In this regard, Xiang Dongliu couldn't help but grow his head all of a sudden, thinking that this Xu Jinzong's father would be too rebellious? seems to know a lot of mysterious ancient Chinese characters, but with only a few characters, Xiang Dongliu and Xu Yuanyuan have a feeling of knotted brains.
In addition to saying that it is complicated, the eastward flow can only be said to be very complicated! Super complicated!
"Pick a few random symbols and search for them!"
Xu Yuanyuan reminded and said: "Maybe other ancient characters are used, my sister really wants to go away!" If you don't write good vernacular words, you have to use these crazy mysterious ancient words, it's really annoying! ”
"I'll see!"
Xiang Dongliu nodded, quickly drew a symbol casually, wrote it with the handwriting function provided by Baidu search, and then pressed the search button.
"Click!"
After a soft crack, the search results are presented.
After careful screening, Xiang Dongliu really found that the symbol he was searching for now had nothing to do with the Hongyan Heavenly Book, but came from the Bashu symbol!
After a casual encyclopedia, Xiang Dongliu immediately knew that this Bashu symbol is also known as Bashu Tuyu or Bashu graphic text. It is a cultural relic unearthed in SC Province of China from the Warring States period to the early Western Han Dynasty, and 150 different symbols were found, collectively referred to as "Bashu symbols".
Most of them are physical images, there are neither verbs, adjectives, and conjunctions, nor numerals, which cannot constitute sentences, but only look at the symbols of the illustration of the meaning, which are different from the oracle bone inscription and the ancient Yi script, and also different from the later Bashu script.
Some scholars believe that these symbols may have been a pinyin script more than 2,400 years ago. Some people speculate that the "Bashu symbol" may belong to the hieroglyphs left over from the ancient times of SC Province, just like the Jin Wen, but no one has fully interpreted it so far.
"I'll it, Bashu symbol! There's another ancient script! ”
Xiang Dongliu looked at Xu Yuanyuan's beautiful and flawless face and exclaimed, and then unbelievably extracted a character to search, and finally found that this character was not from Hongyan Tianshu, nor from Cangjie Book and Xia Yu Book, let alone from Bashu symbols, but from a kind of text called Dongba Wen!
"What is this? Dongbawen? ”
Xiang Dongliu frowned, and immediately encyclopedied and knew that Dongba script is a kind of pictorial hieroglyphs with both ideographic and phonetic components, and its text form is very primitive, even more primitive than the form of oracle bone inscription, which belongs to the early form of the origin of writing, but it can be fully recorded and collected.
Dongba language, with more than 1,400 words, rich in words, able to express delicate emotions, can record complex events, and can also write poems and compositions, is known as the only surviving hieroglyphs in the world, known as the "living fossil" of words.
"Sister has found a new type of ancient characters here, such as the Monument, the Book of Yelang Heaven, and even the Tadpole Script!"
Xu Yuanyuan smiled very helplessly: "This is over, not to mention that we are novices who have no research on ancient Chinese characters, even scholars who are proficient in ancient characters may not know so many obscure ancient characters, there are eight kinds of ancient characters that we know at present, all of them are mysterious and extraordinary, and have a long history!" ”
"I'm not looking for it!"
Xiang Dongliu suddenly shook the copy of the black notebook, violently turned off the power of the Apple notebook on the spot, closed the monitor and said: "If we really decipher all the ancient characters, I think the hair of the two of us should also be gray!" So leave this kind of troublesome thing to someone else, maybe Xu Jinzong will have a way. ”
"After all, the person who wrote this black notebook is his father, and if he can't get it in his house, his father will have his father's personal research and translation of these ancient characters, so you can easily compare them to know the meaning."
"Of course, even if Xu Jinzong can't figure it out, we can classify all the symbols recorded in the notebook according to the type of text used, and each category will be handed over to different paleographers to help interpret it, which can not only ensure that secrets are not revealed, but also decipher the contents of the black notebook!"
"That's good!" Xu Yuanyuan nodded very approvingly, "Let Brother Fang and Brother Ang keep an eye on Xu Jinzong tomorrow." ”
"No, what are you waiting for tomorrow? You can call them now. ”
Xiang Dongliu smiled and said: "I think Xu Jinzong is so anxious that he can't even take care of his father's corpse, most likely he will decipher the black notebook as soon as he goes back!" So, the sooner we focus on him, the better it will be for us. ”
"Well, that's it."
Xu Yuanyuan quickly took out the phone and dialed Fang Lingfeng and Wu Ruiwei, but when she dialed, she said to Xiang Dongliu: "It's not too early, why don't you go to sleep?" ”
"Well, I'll see you tomorrow."
Xiang Dongliu nodded, and quickly went over to hug Mu Lingqian's sexy waist, and then said goodnight to Xia Yuling, Xia Yuwei, and Yao Xinlei and went upstairs with Mu Lingqian first.
