CHAPTER XXI
Xu Siyuan lived in the human race for another three years, and in these three years, Xu Siyuan asked Ji Wan to help him choose a dozen children, and then teach them some simple alchemy.
Xu Siyuan has also refined a few furnaces of pills in the past three years, after all, some human races are about to migrate, and one more pill is sometimes one more life.
On this day, Ji Wan found Xu Siyuan with some excitement, Xu Siyuan has seen Ji Wan several times in the past three years, but this is the first time he has seen Ji Wan so happy.
"Dao Chief, please come with me, my Terran Clan's thank you gift to Dao Master will be ready. Ji Wan said.
Ji Wan was a little mysterious and refused to say what the thank you gift was, Xu Siyuan didn't care much about the so-called gift, but wondered how Ji Wan made it mysterious.
Ji Wan took Xu Siyuan to a valley near the gathering point of the human race, where dozens of people were busy.
The dozens of men were thin, unkempt, and covered in dirt, but they were in good spirits.
No one greeted Xu Siyuan and the others, and no one cared about the identity of the patriarch Ji Wan, these people were all concentrating on their own things.
They all seem to feel that the work they do is extremely sacred, and there is no room for slackness.
Xu Siyuan walked to him and saw a person sitting on the ground, drawing a bird on the stone slab, this bird had two heads and four claws, and a hideous face.
Ji Wan introduced: "Because it has two heads, this bird can make two sounds, and the sound is very mournful, we call this bird double resentment." ”
That man's painting skills are not particularly good, but his painting is very realistic.
As soon as the man had finished painting the double grievances, one of them took the slate and placed it according to a certain classification.
Countless stone slabs have been placed in the valley.
"They are all the smartest of our Terrans, and there is also one of the wisest elders of our Terrans. ”
Ji Wan took Xu Siyuan to the depths of the valley, and the further he went, the fewer slabs there became, and in the end there were only five piles of slabs.
On the first pile of stone tablets are portraits of people, children, adults, men and women, and on the second pile of stone tablets are all kinds of beasts...
Xu Siyuan took a general look and found that they were humans, beasts, insects, birds, and fish!
There was an old man who was comparing the portrait of the two voices in his hand with the portrait of other birds.
He was watching birds, all kinds of birds.
He was gesturing with a pen as he watched.
That pen was still made of the tail hair of the Golden Wind Sage.
"This is the smartest elder of our human race!" Ji Wan said with admiration.
The old man was extremely thin, and his body wrapped in sackcloth looked empty, as if it was supported by only a few bones.
However, the old man's eyes were extremely bright, and there was a kind of wisdom that penetrated all things in the world.
After watching this valley for so long, Xu Siyuan originally had some guesses in his heart, thinking that this old man was Cangjie, but it was not.
After all, according to the history books, Cangjie has four eyes on his face and is born with wisdom, but the appearance of this old man is too ordinary.
At this moment, the old man finished reading the bird, and the old man seemed to have something to gain, and a smile appeared on his face, and then he picked up the next stone slab.
He began to look at the fish.
And from beginning to end, he didn't look at Xu Siyuan and the others, and he didn't even notice that someone was coming.
However, it could be seen that Ji Wan had a lot of respect for this old man, and Ji Wan motioned for Xu Siyuan to stand far away with him and wait slowly.
Maybe I've seen too much, and the old man is looking at the slate faster and faster!
When it was almost dusk, the old man lowered the slate.
The old man was silent for a moment, and slowly wrote a character on the ground!
Bang!
There was a thunderous explosion in the sky, as if someone had leaked the secret of heaven!
Suddenly it was dark, and heavy rain poured down, and in the darkness there were countless cries of spirits.
It's just a human character, but it causes a change in the heavens!
Because this herringbone represents the birth of words.
From then on, creation cannot hide its secrets, so the sky rains, and the spirits and monsters cannot escape their shapes, so they cry at night.
The rain was heavy, and the characters written by the old man were quickly washed away by the rain.
It's never been so dark and it's never rained so much!
The darker the sky, the more the old man's eyes were so bright, Xu Siyuan knew that it was the light of wisdom flickering!
The old man continued to write, and all the words were already in his mind.
He wrote two words when the heavy rain erased them, and it was very dark, but even if he closed his eyes, he could write what he wanted to write neatly.
Because these words fall on the end of the pen, but they come from the heart.
The old man has words in his heart, and there are only words!
Then the rain stopped, the clouds dispersed, and a golden light fell over the old man.
This is the merit of word-making!
Twenty percent went to the dozens of people in the valley, two percent to the pen, and the rest to the old man.
With writing, there is no longer a need for knotted ropes.
Since then, the four seasons and the four seasons can be recorded.
With writing, the human race can be regarded as truly entering civilization.
Xu Siyuan couldn't help but congratulate: "Patriarch, congratulations." ”
Ji Wan was very happy, and Ji Wan smiled and said, "Dao Chief, wait a minute, the gift for you is coming soon." ”
The old man's front was already full of words.
After writing all the words, the old man stood up and looked at the words he had written, and the old man smiled.
There was indescribable joy in the smile, and even a little kindness.
It's like watching your own children!
"Congratulations to Elder Jiang Ye for creating the text. Ji Wan stepped forward to congratulate.
The old man paused for a while before he realized that Ji Wan was calling himself, and the old man raised his head and looked at Ji Wan blankly: "Who are you?"
"My name is Ji Wan, and I am the patriarch of the human race, and the elder doesn't remember me?"
The old man thought hard and finally shook his head, and the old man said, "Who am I?"
"You're Jiang Ye!"
"I can't remember!" said the old man at last.
For the past three years, I have been thinking about how to create words day and night, and there is nothing else in my mind except to make words.
So much so that he couldn't remember anything but words.
This is the extreme of things in order to be extremely Tao!
"Forget it, I really can't remember, since I made the word, let's give myself a new name. ”
Xu Siyuan's heart moved: "If the elder can't remember, I don't know what he thinks of the name Cangjie?"
"Cangjie, Cangjie,"
The old man said a few times and then smiled: "Good name, then my name will be Cangjie." ”
At this time, Ji Wan ordered people to make a simple bamboo slip, Ji Wan handed the bamboo slip to Cangjie and said solemnly: "Please also ask the elder to write a history for my human race!"
Cangjie carefully took the bamboo slip with both hands, and he spread out the bamboo slip and asked, "How to write?"
Ji Wan spoke:
"In the first year of the human race, Nuwa Niangniang created the human race in Buzhou Mountain,"
"In the second year of the Terrans, Pan Yipan and the second were elected as the patriarchs of the Terrans. ”
"One hundred and thirty-five years of the Terrans, the Terrans settled in the eight hundred miles east of Buzhou, Shandong,"
`····
"In the xx year of the human race, in the midst of danger, the immortals cut the big demon in the dust, and passed on the alchemy of the human race. ”
···
Soon, the history book of the human race was written, and Ji Wan said to Xu Siyuan with a smile: "Dao Chief, this is the gift that my Terran gave to Dao Chief, is Dao Chang still satisfied?"
It's just a few simple words in the history books, but it is the most precious gift from the human race.
As long as the inheritance of the human race is immortal, then he Xu Siyuan will always be remembered.
And Ji Wan's meaning is also obvious: if you save my human race for a while, my human race will always be grateful to you!
It is famous in the book, and countless years later, surely someone will still remember:
There was once an immortal who was dusty, and he eliminated the demon alchemy to solve the crisis!
The historian wrote 10,000 books, and the name was only in the first volume!
