After being beaten, Xia Erju finally calmed down. But the look he gave me was quite vicious.
The inscriptions on bronze vessels are easy to decipher but difficult to decipher.
As we all know, there were very few characters in the Xia Dynasty, and some of them were the simplest graphics and symbols, that is, hieroglyphics.
As for why writing suddenly appeared after the Shang Dynasty, there are many theories to this day.
Oracle bone inscriptions engraved on dragon bones and bronze inscriptions engraved on bronze vessels were the mainstream texts at that time.
Entering the Western Zhou Dynasty, the evolution of writing has reached a relatively mature stage.
The best thing to recognize is the fixed inscription.
This kind of fixed inscription is basically similar to the oracle bone inscriptions of the Shang Dynasty. As long as you follow the fixed form of the oracle bone inscriptions to set the bronze inscriptions, you will be inseparable.
The ancestors who love to study have left a large amount of detailed information for our descendants through textual research and collection through the past dynasties.
However, there are still many words that have not been deciphered so far.
For example, many words are transformed from animal images.
The most difficult thing is naturally the made-up characters made by the caster himself.
For example, the name of a family, the name of a close relative...
Especially the names of your children or grandchildren. Such names that are made out of thin air are the most difficult to identify.
Just like in later dynasties, in order to choose the year, font, and posthumous title for a certain emperor's son, in order to avoid colliding with the names that have already appeared, they usually create a new combined font by themselves.
However, many of the inscriptions inside this pan have never appeared in Chinese bronze inscriptions.
This is a technical test!
There are thousands of oracle bone inscriptions unearthed in the Yin Ruins that have not yet been deciphered. Although there are only a few bronze inscriptions from the Western Zhou Dynasty that have not been deciphered, every one of them is a perversion of the oracle bone inscriptions.
Some inscriptions will make an old scholar unable to study them for a lifetime.
Especially when there is no other supporting evidence!
When the chime bell of Zeng Houyi, a national treasure, came out, I didn't know at first that it belonged to Zeng Houyi.
The more than 180 bronze inscriptions on the chime alone made the experts and masters of China rack their brains and argue for thirty-six years before finally coming up with it.
This is while the entire set of funerary objects is still there.
And this pan is just a single pan. I don’t know the origin, I don’t know the source, and I don’t know any other information.
In the blink of an eye, two hours have passed.
The sky in Yandu gradually darkened, and the true face of the inscription could no longer be seen on the bronze plate in front of him.
The cold wind in deep autumn whistled sadly, kissed the big trees wildly, and caused the leaves all over the sky to fly wildly.
I don’t know when, Xiao Yuyi and the little monster stood behind me, silently cheering me on.
Xiao Longzi and his group gathered together and watched silently as the beautiful lady looked up information.
Xie Yuanhong, President Lin and many masters could no longer stand the torment of the bitter wind and hid in the leeward, whispering and exchanging experiences.
From time to time, many masters shook their heads, sighed, felt indignant and helpless!
No need to think about it, they have nothing to do with this pan.
Without the help of any auxiliary information, no one in this world can decipher this inscription of hundreds of words in a short time.
Even a great master who has studied bronze inscriptions for a lifetime or a family whose three generations have been studying bronze inscriptions can’t make a difference!
Forget it!
Even if there is a huge amount of auxiliary information in front of you, you can’t do that!
The identification of gold inscriptions is just like mathematics. If you know it, you know it, and if you don't know it, you really don't know it!
Xiahou Jichi, this heartless second-in-command, really tested me this time.
I don't know how long I stood there.
The ninety-eight inscriptions inside the pan in front of me have turned into blurry black dots, but I have already remembered all the inscriptions one by one in my mind.
Moreover, these inscriptions are similar to others that I have read and studied in my life.
Compare all the inscriptions one by one.
My health is okay now, but my memory is pretty bad.
Only when I see these inscriptions can my mind recall the relevant memories.
Time passed quickly, and the red wall on the side turned into red and inky black, and only the rough outline of the rockery on the opposite side remained.
The entire world, except for the soul-chilling wind, was filled with deathly silence.
"How about it?"
"How much longer are you going to watch?"
Xia Er, who had just calmed down for a while, forgot about the pain after the scar on his arm healed. He covered his buttocks and began to strike like a demon again: "Copper plate. Do you want to build a tent for you in the wild?"
"Should I prepare a sleeping bag for you?"
"Would you like to get you something to eat and drink?"
Xia Erzhi walked up to me with a pan in his arms and asked someone to turn on the lights. Jie Jie sneered: "By the way, we didn't say the time limit just now, right?"
"Don't worry about Copper. I won't make it difficult for you. I will build you a glass house here. I will provide you with good food and drink every day."
"If you can't figure it out in one day, I'll give it to you in one day. If you can't figure it out in ten years, I'll give it to you in ten years."
"I can't do it in a hundred years, I..."
"I will make a rubbing of this plate and burn it for you, so that you can continue to study and work on it below."
"I'll cover all your expenses down there, and I'll give you a poodle to accompany you."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Xia Erzhi raised his arms to the sky and laughed heartily, with a crazy expression, a face full of arrogance and forgetfulness.
Many big bosses and masters around them frowned and sighed deeply.
In the distance, Feng Changqing shouted loudly: "Little boy. If you can't do it, just admit defeat. There is no shame."
President Lin also tried to persuade me: "Today you become famous in one battle. From now on, the whole country will know that you are a person. You will definitely become a great master in the future!"
Behind me, Zhuang Chihua whispered softly: "Little boy, business matters are important. Let's go back to the hospital. Don't let you go cold. Your body is..."
"Show him."
Wang Peng's voice covered up the roaring Feng Mo: "I asked Brother Chao to guard Shi Lao."
"I will stand with him as long as he wants to watch."
As soon as Wang Peng's voice finished speaking, Wang Pan spoke softly: "Mr. Zhang is here. Mr. Zhang is also with us."
I heard all the conversations above clearly, but I didn’t make any response.
My brain speed has been maximized!
