Chapter XXVII: Deliberations and Writings (2)
Only then did Di Mu react, and he could understand their shock.
"Yes." It seems that the orcs already know the concept of writing, which means that perhaps there is already writing in this world.
Granny Hua's somewhat trembling voice came: "Cub, you are really a treasure given to us by the Beast God. The Sirius tribe actually has a written word, but we call it the symbol of the beast god, because only the beast god holds this magical symbol. The writing of the tribe has been handed down by the ancestors for many years. ”
With that, a piece of animal skin was pulled out of a corner of the council room, wrapped in a palm-sized stone. Because of the age, some of the strokes are not very clear. But generally speaking, it feels quite familiar to her, and it is similar to the oracle bone inscription of the ancient blue star period. Because Di Mu has not specifically studied ancient characters, she can't tell whether it is the same or not.
"Actually, the script used in my hometown is a little different from this, and it can be seen that it has been developed on the basis of these symbols, but it is more simple and easy to understand."
After speaking, he took out the dagger he carried with him and wrote the word 'Yu' on the ground.
"This is the word 'Yu' of 'Wolf Yu', the part on the left is the word 'fire', which resembles a fire, and the word 'Yu' on the right is a 'day', which means sun, and the pictogram, and the entire right half means that the sun rises. The whole word 'Yu' together has the meaning of shining and shining. ”
Everyone listened with relish and was fascinated by the magical Chinese characters. Seeing that everyone was very interested, Di Mu continued: "In addition, there are many morphophonetic characters and pictographs in Chinese characters...... There are also idioms, proverbs, afterwords, and so on. For example, there is a folk saying after the break: 'Ants move the snake aisle, there must be heavy rain coming'"
Snake Hanging smiled and said, "It's interesting, we snake people are indeed more sensitive to changes in the weather. ”
"yes, there's a lot more to it like that."
After listening to Di Mu's words, everyone was eager to try, but there were still some problems, such as the cave could not accommodate so many people, and they all went to learn who was responsible for hunting.
They talked about it like this, and it was only at noon that a relatively complete plan was discussed.
When they came to the central square, the orcs happened to be serving food, and when they saw them, they all backed down and let them go to get food first. Although Di Mu and the others waved their hands again and again, they couldn't resist the enthusiasm of the orcs.
After eating, Granny Hua gathered the orcs, leaving only the patrolling orcs on the periphery of the tribe.
Wolf Yu raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet: "After discussion, we have decided to implement a division of labor system in the tribe. According to the actual situation of each person, we have made a division of labor for everyone, if you have any objections to this, please come to me to explain in time. ”
Then Wolf Jie stood up and explained the formulated division of labor to everyone in detail. It is probably divided into hunting teams, escort teams, and cooking teams...... As for the old orcs of the tribe, they were assigned the task of taking cubs and doing some simple chores. Lan Hemiao is in the picking team, in addition to picking some mushrooms and potatoes, he also picks some wild vegetables. Originally, many orcs in the tribe were carnivores and thought that wild vegetables were only eaten by those unconscious beasts, but after Di Mu came, they also learned the importance of eating more vegetables on a regular basis. In particular, some dishes that look crispy and tender are boiled in bone broth, and wow, they are delicious.
The orcs were still very in favor of this decision, and the arrangement of the wolf was more reasonable.
But then they were stunned by Di Mu's words that he wanted to open the school, and they never thought that they would be able to learn words. Moreover, Di Mu actually understood the symbol of the beast god, and suddenly the respect and worship of the orcs for Di Mu overflowed to the peak.
Di Mu really brought them too many surprises.
