Little Farmer Big Star

Shen Cong was slightly startled when he heard this, and then he realized that he had become anxious inadvertently.

However, Shen Cong did not look embarrassed. Instead, he laughed and said, "Xiao Wang, hurry up. It is about the story of 'Heaven and Earth are dark and yellow, and the universe is vast'. Even if you seem a little anxious, it is normal."

Wang Xuemin also smiled and said: "It's in my mailbox. I came here in such a hurry just to show it to you."

After finishing speaking, Wang Xuemin walked to Shen Cong's computer, logged into his mailbox, and clicked on the "Thousand Character Essay" file.

Shen Cong suddenly said: "Xiao Wang, please forward a copy to Lao Cen first, so that Lao Cen can also take a look."

Wang Xuemin said hurriedly: "Okay, Mr. Shen is still thoughtful. I will forward it to Mr. Cen right now."

After finishing speaking, Wang Xuemin forwarded "The Thousand Character Essay" to Cen Geng's mailbox in one operation.

Afterwards, Wang Xuemin said: "Mr. Shen, take a look. I'll give Mr. Cen a call."

Shen Cong waved his hand and signaled Wang Xuemin to make a phone call quickly. Then click on the "Thousand Character Essay" file.

After looking at it, I couldn't stop anymore. The more I looked at it, the more delighted I became, and I kept saying words like "good, good, good, good, good, good, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful."

After Wang Xuemin made the call, he did not disturb Shen Cong, but watched happily.

At Beijing University, Cen Geng, who was in the office, was also pleasantly surprised after receiving a call from Wang Xuemin. As soon as he hung up the phone, he couldn't wait to open the email.

I clicked on "The Thousand Character Essay" and couldn't stop reading it.

This side of Shen Cong's office.

Shen Cong finally finished reading "The Thousand-Character Essay", and after calming down his mood, he said to Wang Xuemin: "Little friend Li Fan is indeed a genius among all the world. He was able to continue writing the sentence 'Heaven and earth are black and yellow, and the universe is primitive' like this." A classic that can be handed down from generation to generation. If my prediction is correct, the reason why this work is called "The Thousand-Character Essay" should be because this work is no more, no less, exactly one thousand words."

Wang Xuemin nodded and said: "The number of words should indeed be around a thousand words. Since it is called "The Essay of Thousand Characters", the number of words should definitely be one thousand words."

"The Thousand Character Essay" originally had exactly one thousand characters, and there were no repeated characters.

These one thousand characters were copied by Yin Tieshi from the handwriting of the great calligrapher Wang Xizhi on the order of Xiao Yan, Emperor Wu of Liang Dynasty. None of the thousand characters are repeated.

However, because Yin Tieshi's thousand characters are too messy to remember. Emperor Wu of Liang asked his literary attendant Waizhou Xingsi to re-compile it.

When Zhou Xingsi was compiling, he repeated the word "jie" (jie and 絜 are synonyms).

Therefore, strictly speaking, "The Thousand Character Essay" actually only uses 999 characters.

Later, in modern times, due to the simplification of characters and the merging of variant characters, the simplified Chinese version of "Thousand Character Classic" only has more than 990 different Chinese characters left (the specific number of Chinese characters depends on the attribution of variant characters) There are different opinions).

Of course, the total word count is still one thousand words, just a few words repeated.

Depending on the attribution of the variant characters, the meaning of the repeated characters is different, but they generally include the characters "Bing, Cheng, Fa, Jie, Kun, and Pan".

Shen Cong sighed: "It's just a thousand words,

It actually covers astronomy, geography, nature, society, history and other aspects of knowledge, which is really amazing. "

Wang Xuemin said: "Not only that, but the content of the narrative seems to have regularity. I feel that the whole work can be divided into several parts. For example, starting from the first sentence 'Heaven and Earth are mysterious and yellow', to the thirty-sixth sentence ' At the end of "Lai Ji Wan Fang", these thirty-six sentences can be divided into the first part. This part starts with the creation of heaven and earth. With heaven and earth, there are sun, moon, stars, clouds, rain, frost and fog, and the four seasons of cold and heat. There are changes in gold and jade, iron tools, swords, treasures, fruits, vegetables, rivers, lakes and seas, birds and fish, etc. There are also changes in people and times between heaven and earth. There’s a pattern to it, it’s simply wonderful.”

Shen Cong nodded and said, "That's true. And," he sat in court and asked, bowing his head and holding a flat seal. He loved the Li chief, and served the Rong and Qiang. He was one with the far and near, and led the guests back to the king. The phoenix sang in the tree, and the white colt was in the food court. The last few sentences of the first part also talk about the early history of mankind, as well as the performance of the prosperous times of King Tang and King Wu of Zhou, which summarizes thousands of years of history in just a dozen or twenty words. , it can be said that every word is worth a fortune!

Wang Xuemin added: "But Mr. Shen, there is a sentence in this sentence that I don't quite understand what it means."

"Oh?" Shen Cong said with a smile, "You said 'Dragon Master Fire Emperor, Bird Official Human Emperor.' This sentence?"

Wang Xuemin said: "Exactly, this sentence should be talking about four characters. This 'Human Emperor' can be understood. It should be the Human Emperor among the three emperors 'Emperor of Heaven, Emperor of Earth, and Emperor of Humanity'. But 'Dragon Master', Who do the 'Fire Emperor' and the 'Bird Official' refer to respectively? There seems to be no such three characters in our mythological history."

Shen Congdao: "It is true, there are indeed no these three characters. There are no relevant records, and these three names do not appear in all the myths and legends published by Little Friend Li Fan before. Who do these three names refer to? ? Even I didn’t understand it when I first started.”

"Didn't you understand it at the beginning?" Wang Xuemin said with a smile, "This means that Mr. Shen now knows who these three names refer to? Please tell me, Mr. Shen."

Shen Cong smiled and said: "I did guess it, and it shouldn't be wrong. First of all, 'Dragon Master' should refer to Fuxi. Because Fuxi once used 'dragon' to name hundreds of officials, such as 'Qinglong Official', ' "Chilongguan", "Huanglongguan", etc. The reason why Fuxi thought of naming Baiguan after "dragon" was because he saw a monster with a horse head and a dragon body in the Yellow River. Fuxi was inspired to draw the Bagua symbols, and invented the fishing net based on the patterns on the dragon and horse, which brought human civilization into the age of fishing and hunting. It was precisely because of the great help that the dragon and horse gave Fuxi. I will name all the officials with 'dragon'."

After hearing this, Wang Xuemin suddenly realized and said happily: "I see. In this way, it is really appropriate for brother Li Fan to call Fuxi 'Dragon Master'. Mr. Shen, I think there is absolutely no mistake, 'Dragon Master'" 'It definitely refers to Fu Xi. So, Mr. Shen, who is the Fire Emperor?"

Shen Congdao: "As for the Fire Emperor, I think it should refer to two people."

"Oh, two people?" Wang Xuemin said.

Shen Congdao: "Indeed, two people. The first is the Suiren clan. The Suiren clan invented drilling wood to make fire and is one of the greatest founders of human civilization. The 'Fire Emperor' Suiren clan deserves the title. The second is the Yan Emperor, also known as the Shennong clan. The Shennong clan Also known as the Sun God and the King of Fire, he selected grains, tasted herbs, and taught people how to farm. According to legend, Shennong once named officials after "fire". Fire Emperor."

"I see." Wang Xuemin nodded and said, "Whether it is the Suiren clan or the Shenlong clan, they can indeed be called the Fire Emperor. So, what about the Bird Officer? Who does the Bird Officer refer to? The same goes for Li Fan. Why do we say 'Bird Officer'? ?I don’t know, I thought it was a curse word.”
