"Timing?"
After Feng Xi finished speaking, he saw a look of doubt on the faces of the wizards.
Since Feng Xi sketched patterns and began to write "zi", the original tribal language here began to express more complex meanings with the emergence of "zi".
Coupled with the participation of many tribesmen from all over the wilderness, Feng Gun added a lot of news. Compared with dozens of years ago, after the exchanges between various tribes, the language and characters of Fenggun Land have undergone earth-shaking changes, both in terms of quantity and terminology.
As the guardians and leaders of the tribe, they, the witches, have always paid attention to the text that comes from the same source as the witch pattern.
What's more, witches specially created many new words.
Therefore, in the land of Fenggun, the witches are the ones who master the most and most complete languages among all the tribesmen.
It can be said that each of these people in front of them has learned more than 90% of the characters in the entire Fenggon Land.
Therefore, when they heard the word "timing" from Feng Xi's mouth, they immediately understood that this might be his new word.
However, Da Xi said that the timing should be determined, but what exactly this "timing" refers to, the wizards were unable to understand for a while.
"What Da Xi is referring to is time?"
Just when the witches were confused and looked at Feng Xi, waiting for him to explain to them, they heard a hoarse voice next to them suddenly.
"Wuxian." The witches looked for the voice, but when they saw it was Wu Xian who spoke, they all felt their hearts tremble and subconsciously looked away.
Wu Xian didn't know what was going on. The witch power around him seemed to be uncontrollably pouring out. Especially after arriving at the ancestral land, he couldn't even control his breath.
Hearing this, Feng Xi glanced at Wu Xian and waved his hand gently. The invisible power enveloped Wu Xian and smoothed away the witch power that poured out from his body.
But before Wu Xian could get up to say thanks, he saw Feng Xi gently push him back down to sit on the stone.
"What Wu Xian said, sequence is time." Feng Xi looked at everyone, paused slightly, and continued,
"Yes and no!"
"Daxi, what do you mean by this?"
On the other side, He couldn't hold back after hearing the words and asked.
"Witches can see the sun rising, the moon setting, and the stars rotating around. Do they know the times?" Feng Xi did not answer immediately, but asked everyone.
"We have all learned from Feng Gong at all times, taking the rising and setting of the sun as one day, and the rotation of the stars as one sacrifice." A wizard replied respectfully.
"How many days does a sacrifice last?" Feng Xi then asked.
"The stars rotate once in the sky, and there are three hundred and sixty days in total." Another shaman answered.
The Great Wilderness has always had the concept of "日", but before Feng Xi created the word "日", each tribe had its own language to explain its meaning.
Every time the Fenggun tribe goes through the rotation of stars, they will hold a fire sacrifice to explain the rotation of stars, which has never stopped. Over time, people will naturally discover how many days it takes for the stars to rotate once.
Feng Xi nodded when he heard this.
"The cycle of the week is all in order. Each time, there are three hundred and sixty sunrises and moonsets!"
"This is the timing!"
After the words fell, the expressions of the wizards moved slightly, and they all showed expressions of surprise.
When Feng Xi said this, he did not stop, but continued to explain,
"However, the stars rotate around, but there is a reason why everything changes. Grass and trees grow, everything withers, and cold and heat intersect. Do you know the order of this?"
Seeing the puzzled expressions on everyone's faces, and even confusion on many people's faces, Feng Xi couldn't help but shook his head.
The sequence of time is the sequence of time, which rotates endlessly from the beginning of a sacrifice to the end of a sacrifice. It should include all the changes in the world, so how can it be explained simply by using "sun" and "sacrifice".
What's more, in Feng Xi's view, time sequence is not only the order of time, but also the celestial principle of the change of all things. For the human race, it is the prototype of one of the most important things in civilization.
Calendar!
If writing is the root of civilization, then the calendar is the foundation of civilization.
But for the Fenggun tribes, who are still in the primitive era, and the shamans present, it is still too early to establish a perfect calendar.
But letting the tribesmen know the time sequence and establishing the prototype of this calendar is exactly in line with the human race at this time.
"The sequence of time is not about the sun and the sacrifices. It should include the rotation of the stars and the changes in the heaven and earth." Feng Xi spoke leisurely and explained to the witches,
"Everything you normally see, the changes in cold and heat, the withering of vegetation, even wind, rain, thunder and lightning, all have their own order and should be in this sequence."
"Knowing the timing can help us understand the changes in the universe."
"Explain this wild world to the tribe."
…
As Feng Xi spoke eloquently, the shamans were shocked and gradually understood what this "timing sequence" was.
"May I ask Da Xi, how to determine this timing?"
Nüchao, who had been silent until now, suddenly asked. When Feng Xi explained the timing to them, she had a vague feeling that this timing was very important to the tribe's people.
The female nest is the oldest among the witches, and has experienced the most disasters.
She was already the leader of the tribe before she arrived at the Land of Fenggun, and she knew very well what establishing the order of heaven and earth meant to a tribe.
For every sacrifice in the past, during the alternation of cold and heat, many people in her tribe prepared in advance and died in this changing time sequence.
She couldn't wait to know how to establish this timing.
"The sun rises and the moon sets, the stars rotate, and all the changes in the heaven and earth are nothing but the rotation of Yin and Yang and the five elements." After Feng Xi pondered for a moment, he answered,
"If you want to determine the time sequence, you must use Yin and Yang as the balance and the Five Elements Principle!"
yin and yang? Five elements?
A look of confusion flashed in the eyes of the wizards.
"Yin and Yang, the sun and the moon!" Feng Xi smiled slightly,
"The sun is yang and the moon is yin. The rise and fall of a day is the change of yin and yang."
"The stars, headed by the sun and the moon, rotate around the sky, which is the basis of the yin and yang rotating around the sky!"
The witches were thoughtful after hearing the words.
"As for the five elements, they are wood, fire, earth, metal, and water."
"Wood is responsible for the growth of heaven and earth."
"The Lord of Fire is long, and nature is prosperous."
"With the transformation of the soil master, all things can be accomplished."
"The gold master accepts it, and all the ministers are gone."
"Water hides the souls of all living beings."
"It begins with wood and ends with water."
"It can explain the changes of all things in one sacrifice."
"..."
"The five elements determine the changes of a sacrifice: birth, growth, transformation, collection, and storage. I call them seasons!"
"The five elements are also the five seasons!"
"Therefore, the number of three hundred and sixty in the week should be divided into five seasons, and each quarter counts seventy-two numbers."
"The seasons have yin and yang, and we can set up ten phases in them. Each phase counts thirty-six numbers!"
