Chapter 371: Literacy
After breakfast.
In fact, according to Fang Tian's understanding, this should not be called breakfast, which is not early at all, it can only be said that it is the first meal of the day.
Owen Anderson and the others went to the high platform again, and there were still many things waiting for them to do today! Pierre, in particular, was the old butler, who was like taking a doping bath every day, and walked sonorously, exaggeratedly with jumping.
Rejoice!
Since he was appointed by Fang Tian as the "Chief Commander of the Building", this old man was eager to get a sign, write it, and hang it on his body to announce his identity to everyone.
The little ones all like to be lively, and they all follow the adults to the high platform.
A few of them were asked to leave by children in other compounds before they even ate breakfast. No one went to look for them when they were eating, and there had been such a situation before, according to Owen, these mud boys couldn't go hungry!
However, there were still a few people in the compound who remained.
Because Fang Tian stayed here.
There are two big trees in the courtyard of the martial arts training field, one south and one north, both of which are old branches and oblique, lush and green. Fang Tian asked, but it turned out that even Owen and the others didn't know how old this tree was, in short, it must be more than two hundred years.
At this time, under the big tree in the south, a few people are idle here, all of them are small.
There are Fang Tian, Xiao Loli, Little Ivy, Karin, and Nanhai Thirteen.
At first glance, I thought it was Jia Baoyu in the Grand View Garden, but in fact, it was not like that at all.
Little Ivy, Karin, and the thirteen little girls of the South China Sea are tied into a pile. Chatting casually.
Sometimes it is the thirteenth speaker of the South China Sea, talking about some things about the storm sea, what fish is bigger than a house, etc., in fact, she is just hearsay, and she has not seen much in person, so it is inevitable that there are a few more strange things. But the other two listeners listened with great interest.
Sometimes it's Karin who speaks, and the little priest talks about nothing but the things in the temple of the goddess of life. When she spoke, the other two audience members were of course interested, especially little Ivy.
But little Ivy didn't have time to speak.
So she's basically in a listening and inquiring role.
The other side of the tree. More than a dozen steps away from them were Fang Tian and Xiao Loli.
Xiao Loli held one end of the bamboo flute, let the bamboo flute hang down on his side, and according to the method Fang Tian said, through the guò element control, forming a spell, "blowing" this bamboo flute. So from time to time, there was a whining sound from the bamboo flute.
This kind of exercise is actually quite monotonous. If it's an ordinary little guy, in addition to a little novelty at the beginning, it will be annoying for a long time.
However, the feeling of "annoyance" rarely appears in a magician's body.
Even if it's a first-level little magic apprentice.
Because magicians deal with consciousness, when they first learn magic, they are exposed to meditation, and in the process of becoming familiar with meditation, they need to face "annoyance". If you can't even pass this level, it will be difficult to get started and become a first-level magic apprentice.
This is also the main reason why many elementary school apprentices have been with their teachers for many years and have not yet started.
Little Loli is having a lot of fun at this time.
It's a lot more interesting than the moving stones she used to have, before she met her brother. The cultivation of magic is a nightmare!
Nanhai Thirteen looked at this side with envy from time to time, hey, they are both magic apprentices, why is the difference so big?
"Girl, come here. When the conversation over there came to an end, Fang Tian beckoned to little Ivy's side.
"Brother, what's the matter?" little Ivy walked over with a little jump. He sat beside Fang Tian.
"Well, my brother has a lot of stories that he wants to write, but his brother is lazy and doesn't want to write, when my brother tells them in the future. Can you help my brother remember?" Fang Tian said to little Ivy. ...,
"Brother ......" Hearing Fang Tian's words, little Aiwei's feelings suddenly became low, and her little face was even a little pale at this moment, and she paused before she lowered her head and said, "I won't." ”
Fang Tian felt that his shoulders were a little tight, it was Xiao Aiwei's hand holding his shoulder, tightening.
"Brother knows you won't, but you won't, brother can teach you!" A touch of distress flashed in his heart, and Fang Tian said with a smile.
"Brother, what are you talking about?, you teach me?" Hearing Fang Tian's words, little Ivy raised her head suddenly, her big eyes were full of surprise and disbelief, she looked at Fang Tian in a daze for a long time before she said again: "Brother, you teach me to write?"
There was a little tremor in his voice.
"Of course, how about it, do you want to learn or not?" Fang Tian pulled out his hand, patted her little shoulder, and said.
Little Ivy didn't speak, her teeth biting her lower lip, just nodding desperately.
As she lit it, her eyes turned red, and the next moment, she even threw herself into Fang Tian's arms and began to sobb lowly.
Uh, what's that reaction?
Fang Tian was a little stunned.
Fortunately, little Ivy quickly stopped sobbing and sat up again.
Seeing this, Fang Tian said, "Okay, girl, let's start today?"
Little Ivy still didn't speak, just nodded vigorously.
At this time, Xiao Loli's flute stopped playing, sat on the other side of the bench, lay on Fang Tian's shoulder, looked at Fang Tian, and looked at Xiao Ivy.
"Little brother, shall we avoid it?" Karin and Nanhai Thirteen walked towards this side, and Karin spoke.
Karin had always called Fang Tian "His Highness Fang Tian" before, and Fang Tian couldn't figure out who the title "His Highness" could be used for, he had no concept of these at all. But no matter what, at his repeated requests, Karin finally changed her mind and joined the people in the compound, calling him "Little Brother".
"It's okay, if you want to hear it, you can listen to it. Fang Tian waved his hand and said, "But this is not a story, it is very boring, you should not be interested." ”
Regardless of interest, Karin and Nanhai Thirteen sat on either side of the bench. -- This bench is so long that it can fit seven or eight people.
So, Fang Tian's lecture began like this.
The purpose of teaching is different, and of course the things taught will be different. Fang Tian taught little Ivy to read, not just to make her literate.
"Girl, we only learn one word today, 'live', 'live', understand?" Fang Tian said to little Ivy.
Little Ivy nodded.
"Now let's take a look at how this 'living' character is written. Fang Tian said as he used the guò water system spell and condensed a "living" word with a diameter of about one meter in front of the bench.
The birth of words must begin with simulation.
And all simulations must start with pictures.
Then the picture began to diverge from fixation to two paths.
The first is to extract some common elements from the drawings as the matrix of the later qiē, which later developed into the abcdefg on earth.
The other way is the opposite, not to extract the pictures, but to merge the pictures, to put together the individual pictures, and to use different combinations of pictures to represent different references. The Chinese characters used in Chinese civilization are the culmination of this path.
In other words, no matter what kind of writing it is, if you trace their history and trace it infinitely forward, you can find that they all come from the same source.
But this "source", as we walked, branched off and formed different tributaries.
Just like the organisms on the earth themselves, starting from microorganisms, walking and walking, they have divided into two major tributaries of plants and animals, and some organisms stand at the fork in the road, do not move, and have some characteristics of plants and animals at the same time. ...,
The writing of this world is the path taken by the Chinese writing in the previous life.
But of course, although it is the same path, the specific text configuration, the difference is still very large.
It's a simple principle that anyone who has played or seen billiards or snooker will easily understand. -- Even if the same person kicks off, from the same angle, with the same force, and on the same table, it is impossible to open the same situation.
In the process of interaction between people and the ball, even the slightest difference can make a huge difference in the whole situation.
"Girl, what do you look at this side of this word?" Fang Tiantong guò element manipulation, so that the left side of the word "live" presented in mid-air in front of the bench flowed from top to bottom.
What was already easy to guess, now that Fang Tian demonstrated it like this, it was even more obvious.
"Brother, is this Xiaohe?" said little Ivy hesitantly.
This was her first step.
"Well, it's the river!" Fang Tian nodded vigorously, and then said, "Girl, how is it, isn't it very simple? This is the river, use it to represent the water in the river." ”
Little Ivy nodded.
"Then look at it again, what is the picture here?" Fang Tian used a spell to demonstrate, making the right part of the glyph taller and taller little by little, and dividing the branches and lines from the upper part.
After his demonstration, little Ivy understood again.
"Brother, is this a tree?"
"Clever! This is a little sapling. Fang Tian nodded vigorously, "Plant a small sapling by the river and let it be close to the water, this is 'living'." Girl, understand?"
Little Ivy nodded happily, her little face flushed, and she was cute to death.
"Then let's take a look now, why does this little sapling have a beard under it?" Fang Tian used the spell to dynamically display the lower right part of the movable type, saying this, Fang Tian stretched out his hand, and a small thin branch not far from the big tree next to him arrived in Fang Tian's hand, "Girl, you say, this branch in my hand is dead or alive?"
Little Ivy looked at the branch and hesitated again.
Say it's dead, it's not like that. It's so green.
It's said to be alive, but it's not like it. My brother just said that he grew up by a small river, and he had to be close to the water to live. Also, under this little branch, there is no beard.
