[Bottle Evil] The Old Mansion's Strange Story

Xiaohua originally said that the contact person arranged for me would arrive the next day, and the equipment would also be delivered together, but the next day she said that something was delayed there. I just wanted to ask whether the agreement was reliable, but Xiaohua He smiled on the phone and said that he would understand when I saw someone, and I was satisfied with the equipment package.

I said in my heart that since I am asking for help, don't worry about it.And we were not in a hurry. The most important thing is that after I passed the photos I took from the tomb gate of the old house to my friends who are experts in ancient characters in Beijing, there was no response yet.On the other hand, there are other things that make me somewhat concerned.

I lived in the city with Poker-Face for two days, and Poker-Face was in a daze most of the time during these two days. I am not unfamiliar with his state, but I just have some bad premonitions.His appearance is very similar to his state after returning to Beijing with Fatty and me after he lost his memory in Snake Marsh West Queen Mother City.

During that time, Poker Face could not say a word for three days, just sitting and lying down, either in a daze or sleeping, talking to him didn't sound like he was listening, and he didn't say anything when asked.

I started to murmur in my heart, especially worried that this is the rhythm of him losing his memory again.

I later heard Zhang Haike say something about the Zhang family's soul-lost disease. The better the bloodline, the easier it is to get sick.It is also understandable that intermarriages like their family, the purer the kinship between people, the closer the kinship is estimated to be, and the higher the probability of the child being born with this genetic disease.

Pokerfing's father is from the Zhang family, and his mother is a female Tibetan doctor, so it should not be from the Zhang family. This is what I heard from Zhang Haike.If what he said is true, then according to the speculation above, the chances of Pokerfing getting sick should not be high, why would he lose his memory at every turn.

I only have one guess about this issue, that is, the disease of the Zhang family is not only determined by congenital factors, but also related to acquired stimuli.Thinking about Poker Bottle, it must be the most "stimulated" in the Zhang family, including the time in Yuyu. I guess he must have experienced something that stimulated him, which induced the amnesia.

Of course, these are all in my head, and I can't grab Poker and ask "Are you going to lose your memory again?" I'm not afraid that he won't remember me, but I just want to get to know him again. It's frustrating to start over.

The disease is difficult to cure, only to prevent its spread.I was thinking that if Poker Ping wants to marry a wife, he must not let him marry a woman from the Zhang family, for the sake of the next generation.Of course, the best way is not to live.

Thinking of this, I found it funny, maybe I really laughed out loud, Poker-Face looked up at me.At this moment, I felt as if he had something to say to me.

I met his eyes, put down my chopsticks, and listened attentively.But after eye contact with him for a while, he didn't say anything, so I had to start by myself, I said: "What's wrong, brother? I have rice grains stuck on my face?" The local rice in Northeast China is really delicious. I ate two bowls, Only then do I feel satisfied.

Porky Bottle didn't speak, just lowered his eyes and continued to eat.

I saw that he seemed to be eating absent-mindedly, and then thought of the brain supplement just now, so I sighed, and I picked up the chopsticks to pick up a piece of meat for Poker Ping.But just as she was about to take care of her, the phone suddenly rang.

I glanced at it, it was an email, and my text expert friend finally replied to me.I glanced at the content roughly, and then frowned. This matter seemed to be developing in an unexpected direction again.

At that time, in the old house, the light was not good, and the conditions did not allow rubbing. In a hurry, I had to take a few photos with my mobile phone. Fortunately, the pixels of the mobile phone are still good, and the details can be seen clearly when zoomed in.

Over the years, I still mainly do research on rubbings. I can’t say I’m an expert, but I’ve made some small achievements. At least I’m familiar with the characters of various dynasties and generations in ancient times.

But this kind of writing on the tomb door, or just symbols, I really can't recognize it at once.First, the tomb door itself was too damaged, so the samples I got were incomplete. Second, I didn’t have professional books at hand. I checked a lot of information on the Internet with my mobile phone, but there was nothing I could use.

So when I scanned the two keywords in the email - Khitan, I was quite surprised.

I have never come into contact with the original Khitan writing materials before, not to mention me, there are not many in China.The Khitan characters have disappeared for nearly 800 years and are called "dead characters".Unexpectedly, in the mountains of this remote village, there is an ancient tomb of the Liao Dynasty with Khitan characters.

Poker-finger and I were in a corner of the restaurant at this time. There were not many people in the meeting, and the environment was relatively peaceful. I sat next to Poker-flanking and started researching with him.

My friend also attached a lot of pictures in the email, which are the comparison pictures he compared the photos I sent with the Khitan characters that are now preserved. Looking at it this way, it is indeed much clearer.

The Khitan language is a phonetic script, based on Chinese characters, using the phonetic system of Uighur and Turkic languages, and using Chinese characters to spell out new meanings.The meaning of the new word is very different from the original, and the pronunciation and meaning of the words are different from those of the Chinese characters.It is a mysterious text that has been lost for a long time.

But to say that I have never come into contact with it myself, and I can’t say that completely. I have studied the Jurchen script that is closely related to the Khitan script.In the Yunding Tiangong, there are Jurchen characters on many murals and reliefs, including the snake-browed copper fish, and the language used for recording is also Jurchen characters.According to research, the Jin Dynasty did not officially abolish the use of Khitan characters until the middle period, and the creation of Jurchen characters largely refers to the creation of Khitan characters.

But I took a closer look and brought in the style of the Jurchen characters in my mind, but I still couldn't see any obvious connection features. It seems that the Khitan characters are still too unique.

I turned my head to look at Poker Finger, who had no expression on his face, so I tentatively asked him: "Brother, do you recognize this kind of writing?"

Pokerfing also frowned, then stretched out his long finger, pointed to a picture in my phone email, and said, "This is not Khitan script, there are no symbols in Khitan script."

I froze for a moment, not knowing who to trust.My friend is indeed an expert in ancient writing, and it has been notarized by the state. In the circle I know, no one can match his authority.But having said that, who is Boyouping? Patriarch Zhang has been exploring ancient tombs all over the world, and who can be more professional than him in matters related to underground things.

I looked at the Poker bottle again, and the latter glanced at it lightly, as if saying, "Believe it or not, I believe it, I believe it."

I immediately asked for advice humbly, and asked, "How do you say this? I think this symbol is also quite strange."

Poker bottle said: "The characters here are Khitan characters, but the symbols are not."

When he said this, I suddenly understood, my friend was right, and Poker Ping was right. There were two things above the gate of the tomb, one was writing, and it was Khitan writing, and the other was writing. It is a symbol, but not part of the text.I continued to read the email, and sure enough, my friend also raised doubts. These symbols were mixed in the middle of the text, and I don’t know what their purpose is, and he doesn’t know what these symbols mean.

I asked Poker-Face: "Brother, do you recognize these symbols? What are they?"

I thought that Poker-Face would give me some popular science, but Poker-Face said he didn't know either.Neither of the two experts could recognize it, so I had no choice but to give up.

In fact, I can't even distinguish the characters and symbols on the tomb door. The tomb door is severely damaged, let alone deciphering the content of the text. Now we can 80.00% determine the ancient tomb and the Khitan people under the old house Or if it is related to the Liao regime, it is already very good.

The two of us read the email carefully from beginning to end again, and after there was nothing missing, I put away my phone, picked up my chopsticks, and prepared to continue caring for Boyouping to eat.

But before I had time to pick up any more food, a black shadow suddenly covered my eyes.A tall and burly man sat down across from Poker Ping and me.

The restaurant was about to close, and the room was full of empty seats. This person had to come over to squeeze our table, and he must have ulterior motives.

I looked up at him and said, "Brother, we are almost finished eating here, you see you come to share the table, do you want to order two more dishes?"

The man was not polite, and called out to the waiter, "Big sister, serve me two more hot dishes", and then grinned at me and Poker Ping, with a weird smile on his face, and said, "Fucking mother!" I just came to this small place from Beijing, and I’m starving.” As I spoke, I nodded my hand that just picked up the chopsticks, “You two are fine, did you just feed me one bite at a time?”

Damn this fat man, which pot does not open and which pot to carry.
