Little Farmer Big Star

Remember in one second【】

For readers in this world, if anyone is familiar with history, they all know Cangjie. They know that his surname is Hou Gang, his name is Shihuang, and he is one of the historians of the Yellow Emperor. .

But that's all. Cangjie's deeds have not been handed down.

Now when I see Li Fan's title "Cang Jie Creates Chinese Characters", I can't help but feel excited. Did Cang Jie really do such an earth-shattering thing?

And Cangjie was Huangdi's historian, so this matter must have something to do with Huangdi.

Everyone looked down eagerly.

Legend has it that Cangjie was born with two pupils and four eyes. He was a native of Wucun, Nanle, and was a historian of Emperor Xuanyuan.

At that time, there was no writing in the world, and people tied knots to record events. Big knots were tied in one big knot, small things were tied in small knots, and connected things were tied in a series of knots.

Later, it was developed to use knives to carve symbols on wood and bamboo to record events.

However, with the development of history and the gradual progress of civilization, things became complicated and names were numerous, and the methods of knotting and carving wood were no longer able to meet the needs.

Legend has it that Cangjie once provided the Yellow Emperor with wrong historical facts from the history books recorded in rope knots, causing the Yellow Emperor to fail in the border negotiations with Emperor Yan.

This made Cangjie extremely ashamed, and he even believed that remembering things with knots was far from meeting the current needs.

What should we do? Cangjie thought hard every day and every night.

One day, Cangjie participated in a group hunting. When he came to a three-way intersection, several old people started arguing about which way to go.

An old man insisted on going east, saying there were antelopes. An old man was going north and said that he could catch the deer not far ahead. An old man wanted to go west, saying that there were two tigers. If he didn't kill them in time, he would miss the opportunity.

When Cang Jie asked, it turned out that they only identified the beast's footprints by looking at the ground.

Cang Jie suddenly felt happy, "Since a footprint represents a kind of beast, why can't I use a symbol to express what I want to express?"

After that, Cangjie thought about it day and night, observing everywhere and seeing the distribution of the stars in the sky, the appearance of the mountains and rivers on the ground, the traces of birds, animals, insects and fish, and the shapes of vegetation and utensils.

Then he traces and writes based on the various traces he observes, creating various symbols.

And the meaning of each symbol is determined.

Cangjie put together several paragraphs using symbols according to his own ideas and showed them to others. After he explained them, others could understand them.

Cangjie was so excited that he called the symbol he created "zi".

Cangjie showed the "character" to Huangdi. Huangdi was very happy and praised it greatly.

Huangdi asked Cangjie to continue to create more characters and go to various tribes to teach people to learn these characters.

At this point, human society finally had writing.

Cangjie's creation of characters undoubtedly made an immortal contribution to the reproduction and prosperity of the Chinese nation.

According to legend, on the day when Cangjie succeeded in coining characters, a strange thing happened. On that day, it rained like millet and ghosts cried and howled at night.

As the saying goes, grains rain from the sky, ghosts cry at night, shocking the world!

…

After reading "Cangjie's Creation of Characters", everyone could not restrain their excitement and excitement.

This is writing. The Chinese nation has used writing for thousands of years. Its importance and significance need not be explained.

The Internet is already abuzz with excitement.

"The significance of Cangjie's success in coining characters is so great that even strange phenomena occurred in the heaven and earth. The sky rained millet and the ghosts cried at night. This is all earth-shattering and the ghosts and gods wept."

"Absolutely shocking, making ghosts and gods weep. However, this 'Heaven Rains Millet' is easy to understand. Millet is food. God thought that Cangjie succeeded in creating Chinese characters and should celebrate it, so he sent grain to benefit the people. However, this ghost came at night. Why are you crying?"

"Hey! Isn't this easy to understand? Think about it, with writing, things can be recorded. Ghosts must do bad things. Now, all the bad things they do can be recorded, so naturally they cry. ”

"What you said above makes so much sense, I'm actually speechless."

"Why do ghosts cry? This is indeed worthy of study. I think it should be because of the advent of writing. People's wisdom and virtue are getting worse and worse. Deception, cunning, competition and killing have arisen from this. From now on, the world will never have peace, not even ghosts. There is no peace, so the ghosts are crying."

"Well, I'd rather believe the explanation from that guy before."

"Haha! Let's discuss it. Who told Mr. Li Fan to only have these words: 'Raining in the sky, crying at night, shocking the earth!'"

"..."

"The sky is raining with millet, the ghosts are crying at night, the world is shaking!" This is the vision of heaven and earth after Cangjie successfully created the Chinese characters.

This shows that Cangjie's success in coining characters is of great significance, and many people are extremely excited about it.

However, "Tian Yusu" is easy to understand, but "Ghosts cry at night" makes people talk a lot. Cangjie succeeded in coining the character. You are a ghost, why are you crying at night?

Many people have their own understandings and explanations, and they are all very similar and have some truth. Everyone is arguing about it and enjoying it.

Everyone thought that "The sky rains millet, the ghosts cry at night" was compiled by Li Fan himself, but a Weibo post by the famous historian Cen Geng suddenly made everyone realize it.

"In the miscellaneous book "Huainanzi", there is such a record, 'Jie is born with four eyes, and everything is accomplished. The sky rains millet, and the ghosts cry at night.' The meaning of this sentence is not difficult to understand. It is said that Cangjie was born with four eyes, because When something is accomplished, the sky rains with rain and the ghosts cry at night.

Before, no one understood what kind of earth-shattering event Cangjie had accomplished. talent

^0^ Remember in one second【】

It makes the sky rain with grains and the ghosts cry at night. Today I read Li Fan's "Cangjie's Creation of Characters" and finally solved the doubts that have been plaguing the historians. It turns out that the word was successfully created. "

The famous historian Shen Cong also wrote on Weibo: ""Cangjie's Creation of Characters" is certainly a myth created by Li Fan, but it can be seen from the records in "Huainanzi" that This isn't exactly a myth.

There may be Cangjie in history. Of course, in real history, writing should not be created by Cangjie alone.

Cangjie is most likely the promoter and organizer of Chinese writing, and he still has immortal contributions to writing.

The true origin of writing is difficult to verify, and may always remain an unsolved mystery. But now, we have the legend of "Cangjie's Creation of Characters", which is enough. "

After reading the Weibo posts of the two experts, everyone suddenly realized that "the sky rains millet and the ghosts cry at night" was not a random compilation by Li Fan, but a real historical record.

And this undoubtedly makes the legend of "Cangjie's Creation of Characters" more real and reliable.

Of course, even if there is no record of "Raining from the sky and cries of ghosts at night" in history, everyone still has that familiar and mysterious feeling. This article "Cangjie's Creation of Characters" is a true myth and legend that has been lost in history. .
