"Okay, you know how to think, know how to use tools, use vines to weave fish cages, use rancid viscera as bait, and catch big fish. You are good. This is the power of wisdom."
"People cannot chase fish in the water. If you want to catch fish, you can only succeed by relying on wisdom and making suitable tools. This is to win with wisdom. Those who use strength work hard, and those who use wisdom are at ease. As long as they are good at using wisdom, women will not No worse than men, each has his or her own strengths.”
Zhong Yan smiled and looked at the tribesmen gathered in front of him and said.
I did not forget to take this opportunity to once again deepen the impression on everyone that they need to use their wisdom and learn to use their brains. This point is indeed deeply remembered by many people, because this is a living example that is now in front of them.
You can see it, you can touch it.
"Clan leader, I was just thinking about how the clan leader taught us how to use traps to catch big black bears. The fish in the river were too difficult to catch and we couldn't get into the water. So, I was thinking about whether we could make traps, just like catching bears, to catch them. Fish, we just made a cage. I didn’t expect it to actually succeed. This is because the patriarch taught me well.”
The woman said with a red face.
The adoration in his eyes was completely evident.
"No need to be modest, you can do it, it's your ability."
"The leader of this clan said before that whoever can catch fish will be personally given a surname."
Zhong Yan looked at the woman with a smile, then glanced at the big fish in her hand, and said after thinking: "You can weave fish cages and catch big fish, then I will give you a surname - Fish!! From today on, your name will be His name is Youyu."
"From now on, your children can inherit your surname. There will be no descendants until now."
The woman was very excited, now she finally had her own surname.
"Shi Youyu, from today on, I also have a name. My name is Youyu Shi."
The Youyu family murmured excitedly, and then fell down towards Zhong Yan and said, "Youyu family would like to thank the patriarch for giving his surname. The Youyu family will definitely live up to the patriarch's expectations." There was firmness in his voice.
She decided that she must use her brain more in the future to bring more help to her people.
"There is a fish clan, there is a fish clan!!"
The surrounding tribesmen cheered and shouted. The look of envy in his eyes was completely displayed on his face.
This is the second person to be given a surname by Zhong Yan himself, and the desire in his heart to have his own surname is beyond words. This is a surname that can be passed down, this is the root they can leave to their children and grandchildren. Who doesn’t desire, who doesn’t want.
But envy is envy, no one has envy or hatred.
Whether there is a Xiong family or a Yu family, they all obtained their surnames with their own courage and wisdom. They deserve their surnames. No one can question it. This fishing is a fair competition for everyone, but there are However, Yushi can stand out, which is the greatest fairness.
They obey.
But this does not prevent them from being envious and having a strong desire to obtain the surname given by Zhong Yan.
Zhong Yan likes to see this kind of desire. Only with desire can he be motivated, and only with dreams can he work hard. Only in this way will we do our best to work towards the goal. After all, the examples of Mr. Xiong and Mr. Youyu are right in front of you. These two names already represent the two of them. This kind of specialness is naturally enviable.
After all, most people haven't decided on their own surnames yet, and they even want to be given a surname by Zhong Yan.
That is of extraordinary significance, and the inheritance is even more profound.
If you tell me, it will bring glory to your face.
Of course, many people have already begun to think about what kind of name they should choose. After all, it is impossible for everyone to be given a surname by the clan leader. After all, they are a minority. Most still have to choose a surname by themselves. Now some people have begun to have code names. For example, someone sees a beautiful stone and gives himself the nickname "Stone". Named leaves.
There are many people in this category who didn’t think about it well yesterday, but today many people are starting to do it.
Even if it is not a correct name, it is still a nickname and a symbol of itself.
When people die, they leave their names, and when geese pass by, they leave their voices.
If there is no name, then it is nameless, and it will leave no trace even if it dies.
Later, Mr. Youyu began to teach some women how to weave fish cages out of rattan, and also tried to weave rattan frames to put things in. These weavings turned out to be pretty good, and they all succeeded after a few attempts. It doesn't look very good at first, but once you get used to it, it can become even more beautiful. This is a practical tool.
At the riverside, after everyone weaved fish cages, they took some black bear offal as bait and put it into the river. They harvested one after another. Fish of various sizes were caught. The fish growing in this river were obviously Many of them have never been fished before, and the number is even more amazing. Now it is easier to catch them, and soon you will have a big harvest.
No less than a hundred big fish were caught.
After that, he was stopped by Zhong Yan.
Tell everyone that the catch cannot be endless, it needs to be steady and steady.
Everyone accepted it with an open mind. After catching enough fish, they stopped fishing and began to make various stone tools. Some people began to polish stone pots. This kind of stone pots still need to find suitable stones to polish them. It just so happened that there was a stone pot nearby. There are many such large stones, which are very laborious to polish. Many people take turns to polish them, and by the time they are formed, it is already evening.
Mr. Xiong led people to set up traps, but there was no harvest today. We can only wait until night to see if there is any harvest. I'll pick it up tomorrow morning. After all, most prey only come out at night.
At night, in the cave.
With Zhong Yan as the center, a group of people gathered together. The surroundings were quite bright under those special light stones, especially when they were arranged in a special way to make the light fuller. Inside the cave, there was no less than electric lighting. .
"Today, I will teach you how to read. I will teach you the surnames first. After you learn the surnames, you can choose a surname as your own name if you like. Then, I will teach you how to write."
"Characters are the carrier of our human race's civilization and the foundation that runs through civilization. Every civilization has its own characters. And what I want to teach you are the characters that belong to our race. The characters of our race come from hieroglyphics. . Take shape as the body and image as the meaning. Therefore, what I am teaching you now is the ancient seal script."
Zhong Yan said.
Teaching writing is something that has been decided a long time ago, and it is also something that must be done. Only by learning writing can we inherit civilization, and by learning writing can we acquire knowledge and better understand the natural changes of the entire world.
If you want to understand everything in the world from words, there is no word in the world that can compare with Chinese hieroglyphics. After the evolution of hieroglyphs, they became ancient seal scripts. It is more beautiful and easier to remember. As for simplified Chinese characters, Zhong Yan thought about it for a while and decided not to teach it yet. If he wanted to teach it, he would talk about it later.
Everyone looks forward to things like learning words with eagerness. After all, if you can learn knowledge, you can become smarter, know how to use your brain, and can help the patriarch to do more. matter.
Of course I can't wait for this.
Many people who have no names want to get their own names from it.
"Now, read with me, learn with me, and watch me write. You all use branches to write on the ground, so that the river sand you brought can be contacted repeatedly."
This time, I was very well prepared to teach them how to learn and practice calligraphy.
There is river sand by the river. Collecting this river sand is a good way to practice writing.
In the past, children from poor families in ancient times did not have the money to buy pens, inks, paper and inkstones. Even though it was just a few words, the things used by these literati were so expensive that they could not afford to support them. A book cost dozens of words. Hundreds of articles, or even a few taels of silver, are expensive. Paper, pen and ink are all consumables. They are expensive. Only wealthy people have the capital to use them. Children from poor families cannot afford to use them. It is difficult for poor families to produce rich children. This is the truth. .
In one word, poor! !
Those scholars who came out of poor families are not ordinary people. They are only one in ten thousand, and they have made it through the single-plank bridge. It took a lot of perseverance, hardship and hardship that the children of the aristocratic family could not imagine. There are only a handful of people who become talented.
Those from poor families who want to practice calligraphy can only use a sand table. This is a way to save money.
Whether the calligraphy looks good or not is one thing, but whether you can write is the most important.
Of course, these are all side stories. Now everyone can't find a piece of paper and can only use the sand table. This is already the best result.
"Zhao Qian Sun Li, Zhou Wu King Zheng."
Zhong Yan opened his mouth and read.
"Zhao Qian Sun Li, Zhou Wu King Zheng."
Everyone chanted along in unison.
"Feng Chen, Chu Wei, Jiang Chen, Han Yang."
"Zhu Qin You Xu, He Lu Shi Zhang."
"Kong Cao Yanhua, Jin Wei Tao Jiang."
"Thank you to Zou Yu, and Bai Shui to Dou Zhang."
.....................
The sound of reading continued in the cave. Zhong Yan did not teach everything at once, but only taught part of it. Then he wrote it himself and asked everyone to copy it and start learning word by word. Learning hundreds of surnames means that you can learn hundreds of characters. After that, learning will come naturally.
This study lasted for no less than an hour before Zhong Yan asked everyone to take a rest.
"It is true that they have extremely high talents in learning. It is true that my mind palace power has an impact on them. Their learning has increased, and their understanding is extremely high. In the past modern times, all of them were geniuses, and the first generation race , the advantages are huge, it is indeed a treasure.”
Zhong Yan was secretly happy when he saw everyone lying down.
Smart, learns things quickly, and can draw inferences from one instance to another.
This is definitely the reason for the first generation of human beings. All of them can be called innate Taoist bodies. Nature has unusual talents.
Such tribesmen are all treasures.
"I don't know how many people can be saved during the growth process."
Zhong Yan's eyes sparkled.
