Perhaps Angers' fluent Chinese and easy use of idioms just now confused Gu Bei, making him mistakenly think that this old guy really knows the Chinese culture well. But in fact, this British man who is more than a hundred years old does. Talk about idioms.
Angers might be able to recognize the words in the ancient books if they were taken individually, but if they were put together, Angers would be blinded.
This level of education, in China's compulsory education, is at most junior high school level.
Not the kind that studies well.
I don’t know what this old thief is pretending to be.
In fact, Ange also has some thoughts of his own.
Judging from this incident, it is obvious that this ancient book is not ordinary. It may record something extraordinary, and Richard paid for it with his life.
He didn't want Gu Bei to get involved.
The reason is simple. In addition to being a student in Kassel, Gu Bei is also the former leader of the Celestial Stranger Organization with access to everything. If this thing gets into Gu Bei's pocket, he probably won't be able to get over.
But he didn't think about how to remove this thing.
If he were to put it away forcibly, he would probably have to fight against the founder of the alien system today. As the first mixed-race person in the contemporary era, Angers was still very confident in his own strength, but against Gu Bei, he would Don't dare to be careless.
After all, the existence of aliens is too mysterious, and he has no fighting experience, so he has no other strategy except being cautious.
Of course, there are hands-off ways.
That is, give the things to Gu Bei for storage first, and have the professors of the college translate them quickly after returning to Kassel.
This way, you get the best of both worlds.
The only drawback was that he couldn't believe Gu Bei's character.
According to the rules of caring for Bei's lunatic, once you give this thing to him for safekeeping, when you ask for it again, you will definitely not come back.
Gu Beihui rubbed the back of his head and asked bluntly: "What? Did you give it to me?"
Don't doubt it. With Gu Bei's character, it is indeed possible.
After much thought, Angers decided to trust Gu Bei for once.
It was the interests of both parties that were harmed. The two parties finally reached a cooperative relationship, and Angers still hoped that the students in Kassel could form an alien force.
In his preset, the alien army and this time the Deadpool army will become the two sharp knives inserted into the heart of the Dragon King, wiping out all the dragons in the world.
He didn't know that his dear Mr. Alien Ally was thinking about how to kidnap more good talents from his academy and dig into the secret party's wealth along the way.
Ange's thoughts were clear here, and Gu Bei came over and said "Bring it to me" and pulled the ancient book from Ange's hand.
Angers, who was studying word by word carefully, felt that his eyes were blurred and the book was no longer in his hand.
What are you doing~ Hey young~
Well, a tough guy over one hundred and thirty years old couldn't say that, but he probably had the same thing in mind.
Fortunately, Ange had already figured it out just now.
I can't understand this thing now, so why not just put it in Gu Bei's hands, maybe he can learn something.
Gu Bei couldn't run away anyway, so he had to go to Kassel to take up a post.
Gu Bei didn't care what Ange thought. In fact, the moment he took the ancient book out of Ange's hand, Gu Bei was attracted by a strange feeling.
It was as if something was calling him from somewhere.
This feeling is exactly the same as when I first met Ben Parker.
destiny.
So to say……
Could it be that he was involved in this incident not because of his senior brother, but because his fate resonated with this thing?
Change source app]
Gu Bei lowered his head and glanced at it, and found that there was indeed a looming destiny connecting him to the ancient book.
This made Gu Bei feel suspicious.
How could an ancient book of unknown age be connected to my own destiny?
Could it be that guy Odin did something about it?
After experiencing two consecutive attacks, the subway attack and the memory attack, Gu Bei already had some Odin ptsd.
But it’s no wonder that Gu Bei thought too much. After all, he and Odin had met more frequently during this period. Gu Bei even doubted that if he told Chu Zihang about his encounter with Odin, would the cold-faced man His face was twisted with jealousy.
After all, Chu Zihang had been looking for traces of Odin and had only seen him once before. However, Gu Bei had never seen Odin before, but he met him twice accidentally.
Chu Zihang: I’m afraid you are a humanoid Odin trap.
Having said that, Gu Bei is really annoyed by this big bastard who wears a mask and rides a deformed child with eight legs. He talks like someone owes him money. If Gu Bei encounters him next time, Gu Beifei will rush up and give him money. he……
Give him a kowtow.
It's better to give in at this stage. It's okay to fight as a phantom, but if you fight the real body, if you don't have helpers, you'll probably have to run away.
With his thoughts swirling, Gu Bei kept moving his hands and pinched the ancient book in his hands.
Only then did he feel that the material of this ancient book did not feel like paper...
But this is nonsense.
Regardless of whether this is the original version of the ancient book or a later copy, if it was made of paper, it would have rotted into disgrace.
I pinched it and it felt soft and delicate, like some kind of silk fabric...
Silk book?
As soon as this idea came out, Gu Bei himself was shocked.
Because, if Gu Bei's guess is correct, and if this is really a silk book, then the history of this ancient book may be directly extended to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
Silk script refers to words written on silk.
The original meaning of silk is white silk fabric, which is the most basic silk fabric.
As late as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, silk had generally referred to all silk fabrics.
At that time, silk had a wide range of uses. As a material for writing, bamboo and silk were often used together, and silk was one of the most valuable.
However, since silk is much more expensive than bamboo slips, its use should be limited to high-ranking officials.
If this is really a silk book...
That is a proper national treasure.
Moreover, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period! It can even go as far as Shang and Zhou dynasties!
Could it be that I picked up the original work of a certain "zi" among the hundreds of scholars? ?
Gu Bei took the ancient book in his hand and turned it over and over. This thing, which was said to be nearly three thousand years old, looked far less shabby than imagined. In terms of appearance alone, he didn't look like the Shang and Zhou dynasties. Like last week.
But Gu Bei would not look down on him just because of his appearance. On the contrary, he felt that there was something magical about him.
After all, from Gu Bei's perspective, if this thing was from last week, how could it be involved in his destiny?
It must be Shang and Zhou!
There was no title on either side of the book. Gu Bei slowly turned the page and found...
It seems that I can’t understand it either.
Damn it, what is written here?
Gu Bei looked at the words in the ancient book with a confused look on his face and realized that he seemed to have mistakenly blamed Angre just now.
This really cannot be blamed on Angers' low education, because even if you find someone with high education, you may not be able to understand it.
This is not Chinese at all.
When Gu Bei was scratching his head and was unable to do anything, Nuonuo's voice suddenly sounded in his ears: "Write this book to record what I have gained..."
Gu Bei suddenly turned to look at Nono: "Do you understand?"
Nuonuo compared two fingers: "I know a little bit."
Gu Bei:......
Seeing Gu Bei's silence, Nono thought he didn't believe it, so he explained: "This is Dazhuan. This kind of writing is common in the late Western Zhou Dynasty. Sometimes it is used in translating ancient texts, so I learned a little bit."
It's okay if he doesn't explain it, but when he explains it, Gu Bei is speechless.
I also understand the Chinese seal script and Old Norse. I guess you are using a backgammon reading machine. You can’t click on anything?
However, complaints are complaints. It is indeed an unexpected surprise that Nono can translate the text in Dazhuan. Not only Gu Bei, but also Ange has a smile on his face, because if Nono can translate the contents of ancient books here, , he could have written it down and retell it after returning to Kassel.
Although he is over one hundred and thirty years old, his mind is still as good as before.
Gu Bei did not live up to Ange's expectations and directly thrust the ancient book into Nono's hands: "Read it."
To be honest, Gu Bei was quite curious about the content here. After all, it was something that could be involved in his fate. It was not a simple thing no matter how you thought about it.
As for the question of Angers listening on the side, he has selectively ignored it.
After all, Cassel had a share of this thing. If it hadn't been for Richard, it might have been hidden in a certain family waiting for Gu Bei to raid the house. It wouldn't matter if Angers heard about it.
Nuonuo also took the ancient book and began to read it word for word.
Dazhuan is not actually a separate font.
In a broad sense, the large seal script refers to the writing before the small seal script, including bronze inscriptions and Zhou inscriptions. Contemporary Chinese calligraphers estimate that there should be oracle bone inscriptions in the Qin Dynasty, so they are also included.
In a narrow sense, the seal script refers to the inscriptions on the seals and the remaining stone inscriptions on stone drums.
What is used for writing here is Zhouwen.
"Today, the stars in the sky are absurd and evil beasts are rampant. I write this book to record what I have gained. If future generations gain it, they should inherit my ambition and bring glory to the human race. Li Er, the human race of Chen State, will write this book to future generations."
"No, wait, who!?"
When he heard the author's name, Gu Bei was so excited that he almost jumped up on the spot. Angers was also stunned on the spot. Even though he was an old British man, he was familiar with this famous name. After all, he could rival the Holy Spirit in terms of influence in the West. This is the only ancient person in the Celestial Dynasty.
Nuonuo swallowed hard. She didn't notice it just now when she thought about it. Now when she thought about it, she suddenly felt as if her throat was blocked by something. She couldn't open her mouth or make a sound. It took a long time. He managed to spit out two words and answered Gu Bei's question.
"Li...er..."
Suddenly, the three of them fell into a long silence. Even Gu Bei was no longer eager to listen to the contents of the ancient book. The old man, the cat and the female were all immersed in that deafening name.
Lear.
Many people know who he is even just by his name.
Not to mention, he has another honorific title that resounds throughout the sky.
Lao Tzu.
The thinkers, philosophers, writers and historians of the ancient Chinese dynasty, the founders and main representatives of the Taoist school, and the Zhuangzi of Mengdie are both called "Lao Zhuang".
Later, Zhang Ling of the Five Pecks of Rice Sect referred to the teachings of Lao Zhuang, Huang Lao, absorbed the immortality skills of immortals, and established Taoism. Lao Tzu was revered as the ancestor by Taoism and was called "Tai Shang Lao Jun".
In the Tang Dynasty, Laozi was posthumously regarded as the ancestor of the Li surname.
He was once listed as a world cultural celebrity and one of the world's 100 historical celebrities.
He once served as the guardian of the Zhou Dynasty and was famous for his erudition. Confucius, who had not yet become a saint, once visited the Zhou Dynasty to ask for his courtesy.
At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, the world was in chaos. Laozi wanted to abandon his official position and go into seclusion, so he rode a green ox westward. When he arrived at Lingbao Hangu Pass, he was invited by Yin Xixiang, the governor of Guan, to write "Laozi", which was later known as "Tao Te Ching".
Laozi's thoughts had a profound impact on the development of philosophy in the Celestial Dynasty, and the core of his thoughts was simple dialectics.
He advocates governing by doing nothing and teaching without saying anything.
In terms of power, we pay attention to the principle that things must be reversed when they reach their extreme.
In terms of self-cultivation, it pays attention to the practice of being humble and not competing with others. It is the ancestor of Taoist dual cultivation of life and life.
He died in Qin in the fifth year of King Zhou Yuan (471 BC) at the age of 101.
"Zhuangzi: The Master of Health Preservation" has: "When Lao Dan died, Qin lost his life and came out on the third day."
In the first year of the Qianfeng reign of Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty (AD 666), I was named Emperor Xuanyuan.
In the sixth year of Dazhong Xiangfu (AD 1013), Zhenzong of the Song Dynasty, he was given the title Taishang Laojun, Hunyuan Shangde Emperor.
His handed down work "Tao Te Ching", with a total of about 5,000 words, was originally called "Laozi" without the name "Tao Te Ching", and was later called "Tao Te Ching".
The "Tao Te Ching" is divided into eighty-one chapters, divided into two parts. The first part, the Tao Te Ching, has thirty-seven chapters, and the second part, the Tao Te Ching, has forty-four chapters.
The ideological structure of the whole book is: Tao is the "body" of virtue, and virtue is the "use" of Tao.
The Tao Te Ching, the Book of Changes, and the Analects of Confucius are considered to be the three most profound ideological works that have had the most profound influence on the Chinese people. They are also one of the most widely published works in the world.
In the West, Laozi is as famous as the sage Confucius and is compared to Socrates and Aristotle.
Aristotle was a student of Plato, and Plato absorbed Socrates' ideas and became the three sages of ancient Greek philosophy.
It is generally believed that Socrates in the West is equivalent to Confucius in the Celestial Dynasty, inspiring wisdom.
But in terms of the amount of knowledge, Socrates and Plato are not as good as Aristotle. After all, the latter is an omniscient figure in ancient records, but the core ideas left by Socrates are very influential.
In the same way, Lao Tzu did not write much, but his ideological influence is incomparable.
Laozi and Confucius are both the souls of Chinese culture.
In the 16th century, the Tao Te Ching was translated into the West and into 16 languages.
In Germany, there are 82 German translations of the Tao Te Ching and more than 700 research monographs.
The German philosopher Liebnitz proposed the binary system based on Laozi's Yin and Yang theory, and believed that "Hetu Luoshu" was "the highest secret of the universe". He gave the Yin and Yang Bagua a Western name "Dialectics", so "Dialectics" became The soul of Western philosophy.
German philosophers Kant and Hegel vividly interpreted Laozi's "One life is two, two is three, three is all things".
It has become a trend in Western intellectual circles to learn from Laozi's thoughts.
Of course, this does not say that Laozi is more influential than Confucius. The two people are not in the same field at all.
It is meaningless to discuss who is superior between these two people, because they are both amazing and talented people in ancient China. Their thoughts are different and their paths are different, but they have undoubtedly become a flower that illuminates history. fireworks.
And now, one of the two fireworks is slowly blooming in front of the three people, so close to this era.
