Chapter 307 The successor of the Mo clan
Fortunately, this set of "Tianyang Chapter" is carved on the keel in the form of oracle bone inscriptions. Even an expert in ancient characters like Bai Mushan cannot translate the entire text in a short period of time. It is estimated that Bai Mushan spent more than 20 years. Time has just deciphered most of "Tianyang Chapter".
But deciphering oracle bone inscriptions is one thing, practicing according to the deciphered characters is another. If one is not a martial artist with profound internal skills, it is difficult to understand the true meaning of these characters. Could it be that Bai Mushan is a qi practitioner? Master?
Xu Chunliang and Bai Mushan have met more than once. Bai Mushan doesn't look like he has martial arts. If Bai Mushan doesn't understand martial arts, then he must find a collaborator to study together. Could it be Luan Yuchuan?
But Xu Chunliang had rescued Luan Yuchuan before, and he had felt his pulse twice, Luan Yuchuan had no internal strength, could there be a third person?
Xu Chunliang looked at Xue Anliang, Xue Anliang was terrified by his gaze, tremblingly said: "Don't look at me like that, I'm driving."
"Am I getting in your way?"
"I feel hairy."
Xu Chunliang was amused by this guy and laughed, Xue Anliang didn't want to laugh at all, but when he thought of his life being held in the hands of this person beside him, he almost wanted to cry.
Xu Chunliang said: "Who else does Bai Mushan associate with more?"
Xue Anliang shook his head and said: "He always thinks highly of himself, he really doesn't have many friends, even Liang Boxian doesn't think much of him."
"Did you count the oracle bone inscriptions that Bai Mushan has deciphered over the years?"
Xue Anliang nodded again and again: "Statistics, it's just that Professor Bai has studied for decades, and it will take time to complete this statistical work. There are still many materials that have not been produced in Longgu Culture. I will go over and sort them out soon."
Xu Chunliang said: "You just need to count the words he has deciphered in the past 25 years."
In Xu Chunliang's view, it is most likely that the text deciphered by Bai Mushan in the past 25 years came from the keel donated by the Xu family. The purpose of collecting this information is to add evidence to the investigation of the truth, and to see how accurate Bai Mushan's deciphering is. However, Xu Chunliang did not believe that Bai Mushan could decipher all the writing on the keel donated by his grandfather.
Xue Anliang said: "That has already been counted." He handed Xu Chunliang a USB flash drive.
Xu Chunliang took it, and said with a smile: "You are a sensible person."
Xue Anliang couldn't laugh or cry, it wasn't that he understood, but he did it out of necessity. He briefly introduced that Bai Mushan is currently the person who has deciphered the most oracle bone inscriptions in China, and he has deciphered a total of 372 oracle bone inscriptions. At first glance, this number is not surprising , but there are more than a thousand oracle bone inscriptions that have been deciphered in China. Take the great scholar Guo Moruo as an example. He has only deciphered more than one hundred oracle bone inscriptions in his life, and the accuracy rate has only reached 30%.
The deciphering of oracle bone inscriptions has become a hot spot in the study of ancient characters. In 2016, the Museum of Chinese Characters issued an announcement on the "Excellent Achievements in Interpretation of Oracle Bone Inscriptions". Promise to decipher an unsolved oracle bone inscription, reward 100,000 yuan; make a new interpretation of a controversial oracle bone inscription, reward 50,000 yuan for a single character.
Bai Mushan has won more than 3 million bonuses based on his academic achievements in the past few years. That is to say, he has deciphered more than 30 oracle bone inscriptions since 2016.
Xu Chunliang asked Xue Anliang to take him to Longgu Culture. He wanted to see Bai Mushan's working environment with his own eyes.
Xue Anliang did not dare to refute and could only follow suit.
The heavy snowfall last night made the Nanwan Lake Cultural and Creative Park a bit more elegant. The stream in the Cultural and Creative Park turned into a bright black blue against the white snow.
Xue Anliang drove into the underground garage. He got out of the car and turned off the monitor of the studio before inviting Xu Chunliang in.
Xue Anliang is cautious in doing things, considers things very thoughtfully, and this guy is very skilled. Xu Chunliang knows that he didn't join Bai Mushan's sect purely for learning, and he should have learned the secret of the dragon bone.
Entering the basement of Longgu Culture, Xue Anliang had already turned on the lights in advance. Unlike the usual storage of wine in the basement, the basement of Keel Culture is like a small museum.
There are mechanical models one by one in the glass display case.
There is Gan chariot, which is a siege chariot, covered with rawhide, which can carry ten people, push it straight to the city wall, and can dig and destroy the wall, it can be called an ancient tank.
There is a ballista with an extremely complicated structure, with dozens of arrows fired at once, and the reaction force is very strong, requiring ten people to operate.
There is also a car, the whole car is made of pure iron, part of it is buried in the ground, it is operated by multiple people, and it can throw charcoal fire, stones, etc. This vehicle is the ancient cannon - trebuchet.
A picture of words hanging on the wall attracted Xu Chunliang's attention—love each other and benefit each other.
Xu Chunliang thought to himself, this is the benevolence of the Mohists, and seeing those exquisite models, could it be that Bai Mushan is a Mohism believer?
Xu Chunliang said: "Bai Mushan still studies Mohism?"
Xue Anliang nodded and said: "Professor Bai admires Mohism very much. He often said that in the pre-Qin period, it was not Confucianism or Mohism. Mohism and Confucianism were named after Mohism. Wu only respects Confucianism, and the influence of Mohism today is by no means inferior to Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism."
Xu Chunliang said: "He made all these models?"
Xue Anliang said: "That's not true, it was given by one of his friends."
Xu Chunliang stopped in front of the model of the ladder, and saw that the ladder was exquisitely made, and it was by no means just a shape, and every detail was restored very realistically. The people who made these models not only had ingenuity, but also had a deep understanding of the mechanical structure. know.
Follow Xue Anliang to Bai Mushan's studio, because Bai Mushan's main office has been moved to the museum, and now it has become very empty, and there are very few materials left on the bookshelves.
On the wall behind the office chair, there is a picture of words - the first book is about the things of the ancient sage kings, and the original observes the truth of the people's eyes and ears.
Xu Chunliang paid attention to the inscription, the author Mo Wuya, the date of completion of this calligraphy is thirty years ago.
Xu Chunliang said: "Who is Mo Wuya?"
Xue Anliang shook his head, expressing that he didn't know it. This calligraphy had been hung here a long time ago. He had never paid attention to the author. He just knew that this calligraphy came from Mozi's Three Tables, and it was also the Mohist's standard for testing whether he knew it or not. In fact, there is another sentence-abolish the criminal administration, and look at the interests of the people of the country and the people. The meaning is based on whether the results of political practice are in the interests of the country and the people. This is also the earliest proposition about the standard of truth put forward in the history of Chinese philosophy, which has had an extremely important influence on later generations.
At this time, Xu Chunliang can basically judge that Bai Mushan believes in Mohism, and this Mo Wuya is likely to be the heir of the Mohist family. Therefore, he thought of Mo Han again. Could it be that Mo Han is really a descendant of the Mohist family, or maybe she has relatives with this Mo Wuya After all, there are not many people with the surname Mo.
This trip was really not in vain.
Xue Anliang said: "Basically all the important things have been moved away." What he meant was that there was nothing worth seeing. He hated and was afraid of Xu Chunliang, and he didn't want to stay with him from the bottom of his heart. In his heart, this fellow He is a plague god, wishing he could be sent away as soon as possible.
Xu Chunliang was not in a hurry, he carefully visited the Longgu Culture inside and out, and stayed for nearly an hour before leaving.
Back to the party school dormitory, turned on the computer and looked at Bai Mushan's achievements over the years. Xue Anliang made a comparison table, comparing the original ancient characters with the characters deciphered by Bai Mushan.
After reading it, Xu Chunliang found that Bai Mushan's correct rate was less than half, or about 30%.
Xu Chunliang sighed inwardly, this is a **** expert, can he become a doctoral supervisor at a university at his level? It is simply a mistake. Xu Chunliang didn't know that in the professional field, those who could reach Bai Mushan's level were already among the best.
What made him strange was, how did Bai Mushan's level of half-bottle of vinegar decipher "Tianyang Chapter"?
Judging from Bai Mushan's achievements, the "Tianyang Chapter" deciphered by Bai Mushan's level must be full of mistakes and omissions, and it is beyond recognition. The disease is really unbelievable.
Xu Chunliang believes that there are two possibilities for this matter. One is that Bai Mushan did it on purpose. He can clearly decipher it correctly, but deliberately lowered the accuracy rate to confuse others in this way. "Other people.
Luan Yuchuan presented the rubbings to Mo Han respectfully.
Mo Han took the rubbing and said after reading it, "Are you sure there are no omissions?"
Luan Yuchuan said: "I saw Bai Mushan's rubbings with my own eyes. There was a hole in the missing part. It was the place where the bookmark was used to tie the rope. It happened to destroy the word."
Mo Han said with a disdainful smile: "What a coincidence, the place where the hole is punched is specially chosen where there is text."
Luan Yuchuan said: "You mean, Xu Chunliang intentionally punched holes in the keel, destroying the integrity of this keel?"
Mo Han said: "With his mind, it might not be impossible." His teeth were itchy. If Xu Chunliang was around, he wished he could take a bite.
"Do you want to think of a way to force him to take it out?"
Mo Han shook his head: "Go down!"
Luan Yuchuan bowed his head in salute, took a step back before turning and leaving.
Mo Han walked to the Bogu stand in front of him, opened the hidden compartment, pressed his finger on the place where the fingerprints were identified, and performed pupil identification again.
The bogu shelf is separated from it, revealing the hidden glass background wall behind, the light is on, and the glass background wall shows pieces of keel projections, and the center of the keel projections arranged in rows is missing a piece, and Mo Han sticks the rubbings on the missing places , a secretive smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and he whispered to himself: "Do you really think I can't deduce this word?"
