Chapter 1041 Oracle Bone Inscriptions

Su You continued: "The word "Lai" is originally an image of a single wheat plant. The ancient pronunciation is taken as the 'Lieshan family'. The word "Mai" is added to the word "Lai". The ancient pronunciation is still taken as the 'Lieshan family', but it only takes the opposite one and takes everything."

"Lieshan clan is the ancestor of the Zhou people."

"Since wheat is called 'lao', why do you need to create another word 'pie'? This may be the evidence of 'Zhoushou Shenhe'."

"The spring wheat planted in the past has always been called "la" and later the Zhou people obtained the stronger and more fuller winter wheat. In order to show the difference between "shenhe" and "la", they created the word "la" again."

"The word "mai" is actually added to the word "la" below. We know that wheat does not seem to grow in winter, and it looks similar to spring wheat on the ground. However, the wheat roots are growing under it. After winter, the length can reach about a meter, and the drought tolerance ability is greatly improved compared to spring wheat."

"So I think that the ancients created the word "Mai" may have the meaning of "coming in this way is actually like its root". It is not just the meaning of Xu Xuan's "Shuowen Jiezi": "It is a foot. Zhou Su Rui Mai comes to the li, just like walking. Therefore, it means "

Han Chunyan suddenly realized, and he was overjoyed: "It is reasonable and reasonable, and it is meticulous and subtle. The essence of the observation of the Neo-Confucianism and the purity of the analysis are, Chunyan has learned about it today."

Su You smiled and said, "Actually, there are two other words, which are related to wheat. The records in "Shan Hai Jing" include the Di Kingdom and the Mutual Kingdom."

"'Di', its pictographic image is the image of a person pushing a mill, or a small mill, which is pushed by a single person. It is also common in the wheat field now."

"And 'mutual', the middle is the image of a disc-shaped stone mill, and the upper and lower horizontally represents a wooden bar, and is connected to the stone mill on one side."

"This is a two-person push-mill image, a wheat processing tool that is more advanced than the 'Di'. It is said that it was invented by Linghen, the grandson of the Yan Emperor."

"So we can think of this way that the Di Kingdom and the Hu Ren Kingdom recorded in "Shan Hai Jing" are actually tribes that mainly plant wheat and use these two tools to process wheat grains. Among them, the processing tools of the Hu Ren Kingdom are more advanced, and may appear later than the Di Kingdom, or the scale of planting wheat is larger, and it is influenced by the Yan Emperor civilization."

"Later, people in that area learned the techniques of growing wheat from these two countries, and then the Zhou people cultivated winter wheat, so Zhou became strong."

"The evolution of the text also reflects the history of changes in wheat selection, planting scale, and processing methods for our ancestors."

These are real academic hard skills, and Han Cuiyan and Han Jiayan looked admiring.

At the same time, I looked at my brother contemptuously. Isn’t this serious literary knowledge? Where did you come from? Why do you dare to shamelessly say that reading miscellaneous books is useless?

Han Chunyan is so embarrassed. Although the Han family is a scholarly family, there is a difference between scholars and scholars.

Two younger brothers, although their brother is about the same age as the one in front of him, one is the founder of the Song Dynasty, Neo-Confucianism; the other is the son of the family, a wealth-keeping slave who was born in Xiangzhou.

So let's not put it together, wouldn't it be better?

Suddenly I remembered that something could change the topic, so I quickly got up and took something from the bookshelf: "Shaobao looked at this. This is a piece of cow bone dug out from the ground by the merchants in the village. The above carvings seemed to be some words, or Taoist runes? Can you identify and identify the gold and stones of Shaobao?"

Su You jumped up in shock: "Oracle bone script! By the way, this is Anyang! Where is Yin Ruins!"

This is nonsense. The Shangwang Temple is opposite the street from the yamen office.

But Su You never thought that oracle bones with words had been published as early as now.

The oracle bone inscriptions in later generations have never been completely solved. Firstly, the attainments of text researchers are not as deep as those of the present, the age is not as recent as those of modern times, and secondly, the loss of too much information may be an important reason.

"Oracle bone inscription?" Han Chunyan was a little confused: "What kind of text is this?"

Su You solemnly took the scapula over: "There are still witchcrafts that burn bones and divine patterns in the Erlin, Xinsongzhou, and Barbarian Tribes."

"They will put the bones on the fire and determine the good and bad according to the knowledge of the burnt."

"I have seen an oracle bone left by a great witch in Erlin. There are three similar words on it. The local wizard told me that the three words are 'Tian Lei Zhen', which is very similar to the words on this bone."

"The Yi people from the Erlin tribe said that they were descendants of Jiuli. They firmly believed that their holy bone was left by ancient Chiyou."

After saying that, he wrote the three words on the oracle bone on the paper: "Brother Shi, look, are they quite similar?"

Han Chunyan compared the words on both sides and felt a little dizzy: "This... is this the ancient collection of the Shang Dynasty?"

Su You held the oracle bone: "Brother Shi, look at this place, is it a 'three'? And here, is it a 'five day'? Is it... 'use'? 'big use'? 'big use'? 'sincere'? 'brother'? It is actually the same as bronze inscriptions, large seal scripts, and small seal scripts?"

"Xu Shen's "Shuowen·Yongbu": 'Use can be used. From divination, the position of the word "Use" is where the word "column" is where the word "column" is. These words are likely to be the oracle of the oracle after divination by merchants!"

Han Chunyan rubbed his hands: "If it is an oracle, it must have a date. The names of the Shang kings recorded in "Records of the Grand Historian" all have heavenly stems, which means the use of the heavenly stems and earthly branches will begin at that time. Look for it?"

After saying that, he shouted to Han Jiayan: "Palm lamp, platinum blowtorch!"

Research can be either big or small. Four people transformed into writing scholars under the bright platinum blowtorch, and began to study the bone on the table with their heads in contact with each other.

Sure enough, Han Jiayan soon found a word on the oracle bone: "Shaobao, this is very similar to the word Xin in seal script!"

Su You nodded: "That's right! This word is the same as the bronze inscription, and its original meaning is the blade during the execution."

Han Jiayan pointed to another character under the character Xin: "Which character is this character in the earthly branches? It doesn't look like it..."

Su You studied it and said, "The character of this character looks like a wooden stick, with a thin waist in the middle, and two thick places on the top and bottom. This is the character "wu."

"The original meaning of Wu is a stick for pounding rice. Isn't this character a stick for pounding rice? Even in the current character, there are still remains. The word "Muzhu" is a change that takes place in the evolution of later generations based on the rules of phonogram composition."

"Xinwu!" Han Jiayan shouted: "This is the oracle of the Xinwu year of the Yin people!"

Han Chunyan was so shocked that he sat on the chair: "It is reasonable to infer that the words "Zhen Bu" are true, then 'South of Huanshui, on Yinxu... Shaobao, Sima Guang's records in "Records of the Grand Historian" were verified! The ancients really didn't bully me!"

Su You grabbed Han Chunyan's arm: "Is this discovered by the Huan River? Let's go and have a look tomorrow!"

Han Chunyan was extremely excited: "Why not go now?"

"No, no..." Su You quickly interrupted: "Find information first."

After saying that, he asked the two boys: "The Water Classic Notes and the Yudi Guangji" are there? Find it, and there is also the Shangshu... Forget it, I don't have to memorize the Shangshu... "Records of the Grand Historian"! "Huanglan"! Find out the records about Yin Ruins in it..."

"By the way, there are also local chronicles. Pay attention to place names such as Shang, Yin, Ying, Palace, King, and tomb, as well as records of discovery in previous dynasties."

After saying that, he was a little discouraged: "After all, I have to read the book... If the two Lius of the Great Su and the Master Ouyang were there, they would never be here."

"I always have not learned enough, but I only regretted the fact that I didn't know enough when I was studying, alas!"

The third son of the Han family: "..."

The next morning, two big, two small and four flower bears got on the bus together and drove towards Hanjiazhuang by the Huanshui River.

I haven't had enough sleep and can't ride a horse.

Su You was still in a state of excitement, thinking about the notes he asked Han Jiayan to sort out last night: "Records of the Grand Historian: The Records of Yin": When Emperor Pan Geng was in Hebei, Yin had already capitalized in Hebei, Pan Geng crossed Henan, and resided in Chengtang's former residence. After five moves, there was no place to settle down."

"The people of Yin and Xu were all resentful and did not want to move. Pan Geng then told the ministers of the princes and ministers: "In the past, Gao Hou Cheng Tang and your ancestors all decided to the world, and the rules could be cultivated. If you give up and don't encourage them, how can you achieve virtue!"

"So he went to Henan, governed Bo, and carried out the government of Tang, and then the people were revived from the Yin Dao. The princes came to the court to follow the virtue of Cheng Tang."

"Records of the Grand Historian. The Family of Wei Kangshu":'...Wu Geng Yin's reign appointed Kangshu as Wei Jun and lived in the old Shangxus between Heqi."

"Li Daoyuan's "Shui Jing Notes": 'The Huan River comes out of Shandong and passes north of Yinxu..."
