Chapter 842: The ancients had their own ancient laws
The fat man's movements were very neat, and after a few clicks, the words on the first incense burner were revealed, and several people hurriedly came over to watch, although they all felt that the words on it should not be too valuable, but everyone was still looking forward to it.
It's just that the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment, after reading it, I can't help but sigh, the text on this incense burner is engraved in modern fonts, and the engraved information is not the information of the ancient house, but some of the three outlines and five constants, what the monarch is the minister, the father is the son, the husband is the wife, and the benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and so on, it seems that this is to alert the villagers to behave in the world.
After hearing this, the blind man nodded and said, the ancestral hall in some places is indeed used as a place for the family to educate the next generation, and it is very common to engrave the three outlines and five constants, and the clan rules and clan rights.
The fat man wiped the incense burner next to him a few times, and saw that it was as the blind man expected, this incense burner was engraved with the village rules of Muren Village, and there were twenty or thirty sums of them, most of them are mainly to teach people to be kind, and the last one is more special, saying that it is not allowed to divulge the secrets of the ancestral hall in the village.
Wu Yi took the 'rag' from the fat man's hand, and wiped several other incense burners clean one by one, everyone looked at them from left to right, and the contents of the other incense burners were also similar, all of them were information that did not have much reference value, what surname origin, clan glory, women's chastity and everything.
On the incense burner engraved with the origin of the surname, several people completely determined the identities of the villagers of Muren Village, and it was indeed the same as they thought at the beginning, the people in this village were the descendants of Lu Ban (descendants do not mean that they were heirs), and their ancestor was a person named 'Lu Che', who was one of Lu Ban's closed disciples.
Originally, the villagers of this village lived in the Kanto area, but because the identity of the Luban descendants was exposed, it attracted the attention of some institutions in the society, and those institutions were both good and bad, and they came to the door to learn the technology in their hands, but the clan rules made it impossible for them to hand over the technology of the ancestors, so it attracted the dissatisfaction of many institutions, and began to secretly use some dishonorable means to force them.
In the end, those villagers couldn't stand it anymore, and they moved collectively in one night, and on the few rows of small characters below the origin of the surname, there was a general description of the relocation, which said, 'Three hundred people, swaying up, the moon is dark and the wind is high, and the sun is far away', and then the bottom is a time of payment, Wu Yi looked at it, the last time they moved has been almost a hundred years since now, it should be that relocation, they came to Canglang City to settle here.
After moving here, in order to prevent the previous kind of thing from happening again, they changed their surnames one after another, and they had surnames and everything, but in private they would still be referred to by their original names.
After hearing this, the fat man shook his head, interrupted Wu Yi's words, and said,
"This ...... No, if they have not been here for a hundred years, it means that this ancestral hall has been built for less than a hundred years, but if you look at this ancestral hall, it looks like it is less than a hundred years!
Just talking about the corridor we just came over, the fat man and I don't have any other skills, but I still have a little bit of ability to look at the age, the big stones on both sides of the corridor, it is obvious that it has a history of three or five hundred years, and it smells the same as the ancient tomb ashlar sealed underground, and it is impossible to even be less than a hundred years! ”
Wu Yi also frowned when he heard this, carefully recalled the layout and details of this ancestral hall, and found that what the fat man said was indeed reasonable, this ancestral hall has a strong sense of age, and the feeling after entering is almost no different from entering an ancient tomb that is hundreds or thousands of years old, and it really doesn't look like it is less than a hundred years old, then this is strange, is the text engraved on this incense burner fake?
Probably not, Wu Yixin said, this is the text engraved in the ancestral hall, it should be very rigorous, even the punctuation is sloppy, how can it be fake, and besides, what is the point of this kind of thing being fake?
Thinking about it, he asked the blind man if he had heard of leaving false words in the ancestral hall, and the blind man did not hesitate at all, and directly shook his head and said that this is impossible, the ancestral hall is the most sacred place for an ethnic group, representing the face of their ethnic group, if there is a false or wrong text message in it, then if this kind of thing spreads, this ethnic group really has no face to stay in society.
Wu Yi rubbed his eyes, and then looked at the payment at that time, yes, it is indeed less than a hundred years from now, so what is going on?
The fat man held his chin and thought for a moment, and suddenly he said that he had thought of it, and then he said what he thought,
"If there is no mistake in the text on this, then there is only one explanation left, that is, when those villagers moved, they uprooted this old ancestral hall and moved it over, and there is absolutely no second way to say it!"
Wu Yi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said Although your statement can be explained, it is too ridiculous, this ancestral hall is so large, and it is made of large cyan stones, the weight alone cannot be estimated, let alone transported from Kanto, which is 108,000 miles away, to Canglang City!
The fat man said seriously,
"I said Xiao Wu, when will you get rid of your stinky habit of sitting in the well and watching the sky? Do you think that what is impossible, others can't do?
Then I ask you, how were the pyramids of Egypt made? Each stone on the pyramid is not small, and there are no mountains around, and the stones are transported from far, far away, and in the end, so many tall and majestic pyramids were built.
The ancients had their own ancient laws, don't let ignorance cover your eyes, for the ancients, there is really nothing they can't do, you have also been under a few famous tombs, and the ancients have fought head-on a few times, why don't you understand such a simple truth until now? ”
Wu Yi grinned, and said in his heart, just your Wang Fat Man is a person who understands it, Lao Tzu doesn't fight with you about this, it doesn't matter if it was shipped over or not, anyway, this has little to do with the purpose of our trip, it's better not to think about it than to figure it out, maybe after waiting for it to enter the house below, you can naturally find the answer.
As soon as he thought of this, Wu Yi also got up from the ground, no longer looked at the seven incense burners, and after passing through the middle, he walked forward again, and after walking a few steps, he reached the end of the main hall, and in front of him was a wall, and there was a painting hanging on the wall, and three strip-shaped tables were placed under the paintings, and the tables were full of spiritual seats.
