The Omniscient
Extra Story: Roots of Culture, Brilliant Stars
It's not the text, so don't read it, the text is in the next chapter.
There is a bit of nonsense in the front of the episode, about 2,000 words, so don’t read it, just read it later.
...
My right brain may be too active. I often lose my mind when typing. Sometimes I write the end of the chapter first, and then write it backwards... This is why I said that I don’t look at the number of words and divide it into chapters. What I want to write in this chapter It is fixed, so sometimes there will be seven or eight thousand words in a chapter.
At the same time, for this reason, most of the time I update two chapters in a row.
This is the case for several books, that is, only recently has the situation of publishing a chapter first, and then publishing a chapter.
And once this is the case, the content of the previous chapter will be less than the content of the next chapter.
Besides distraction, I remember when I was inhuman, I said that I need to code for ten hours a day.
In fact, my highest record is only 6,000 words coded in 26 hours, plus 40,000 words of waste manuscripts. When it was a brain hole, the book had too many ideas at the time, so that the last dish was scattered, and what I wanted to write was not written successfully.
After learning a lesson, the Lanbai Society wrote the outline and wrote from one angle. Using the themes such as the world is white but I am alone black, and Jedi Tiantong, it is carried through throughout the entire book, whether it is the Mohist School, the Little Brotherhood, the Blue and White Society, or the rebels of ancient times, from small to large, the whole book is one reason.
For this reason, I gave up a lot of ideas that I originally wanted to write, but it finally looks a little better.
The reason why it takes so long for me to type is because when I write the current plot, I always think of places far away.
Half an hour may have passed as soon as I was in a daze, and I even had to go to verify and check the information. In fact, the information found out has no meaning to the plot at that time, but just to assist the ideas in my mind, and those ideas, sometimes I will use them later, and sometimes they may not be used in the entire book.
When I wrote non-human beings, I often thought a lot and couldn't use them, so I used them in the big explosion of brain holes.
When writing Brainstorm, many ideas were useless, and they were used in Lanbai Club.
When I wrote about Lanbai Club, in order to advance the plot, clarify the theme, and constantly reinforce certain concepts to readers, I gave up too many things and did not incorporate them.
There is really too much backlog, and it is really impossible to integrate into the Blue and White Society, and many ideas are finally forgotten.
Some of these divergent thoughts must be sorted out, otherwise they will be scattered and easily forgotten.
But once it was sorted out and written down, the text was delayed again.
When the Lanbai Society wrote the later stage, I almost suffocated.
Human codewords, including logical calculations such as exams, are left-brained, while associative divergences are all right-brained. If the coordination between the two is not good, it is easy to be distracted.
Often the right brain slams and turns, and then the left brain turns him back and forth to code words.
I don't know how to write novels, I only have a junior high school foundation, and I have always studied engineering. Later, I also worked in a substation doing electrical experiments. This kind of thing needs to be meticulous, but I really can't stay idle.
Once I was asked to stare at the data on the device, I stared at it and thought of going to the universe, 歘歘歘! I began to imagine the specific manifestation of mathematical weapons... This was later used in the later plot of the brain hole, and only a little was used.
There was another chemical experiment, I was measuring the surface tension of insulating oil, and I suddenly yelled! Start to imagine that if the tension of the liquid is infinite,
Then it means that the gravitational force between its molecules is infinite, and it will shrink into the minimum surface area state instantly, that is, a ball, or even a black hole... But the external gravitational force of this black hole is not infinite, because it only depends on its mass.
Ever since, it is a 'safe black hole'.
Later, I wanted to use it when I was writing a book, but it was useless, because it would become non-liquid during the process of minimizing the surface area, so the premise of 'liquid surface tension is infinite' would be broken. In the characteristic system, this The black hole evaporates in an instant. That is, a ball of radiation exploded out, and then this thing 'contained' itself.
After all, it has radiated into space, and it is almost impossible to return to liquid.
In short, the first three books are useless, because writing them becomes water, and if you want to explain clearly, you have to write a lot of words.
In fact, it doesn't have to be infinite, it can be super large. So in this book of science fiction world view, maybe it will be used.
In short, when I saw several colleagues around me have accidents at work, I thought I should stop doing it and go back to writing novels.
I am not a person who can do things that are too rigid and follow the rules.
So when the blue and white society was about to end, because the plot was all fixed, this made me basically just work with my left brain, turning ideas into words.
This caused me to have a hard time writing, and the later updates of Lanbai Club are always at two o'clock in the middle of the night, which is also the reason.
It takes several hours every day because of wandering mind and answering questions from Sand Sculpture book friends.
Because a book friend asked a question, I saw it, it was interesting, my mind started to groan, and then I had to talk to him to the edge of the universe.
There is also a book friend who wrote a Cthulhu novel by himself and asked me for advice. After reading a few chapters, I was inspired instantly and said to him: Do you want to write like this? You see that you have laid the groundwork like this before. Now... isn't this implying that the essence of Cthulhu is...'
I told him a lot, but he looked confused and said: No, that sentence is not a foreshadowing, I just wrote it casually, you have such a bad idea.
I asked him, do you use this idea? He said that he had written so much after all, so forget it.
I said that I used it directly in the late Huangji period.
Things like this made me almost depressed when I wrote about the end of the Blue and White Society.
There were too many things for Huang Ji's book, but I couldn't help but fantasize at the time. There are still many ideas, even those that may be used during the Yan Emperor period.
What's more, there may be no book to use...
Later, I found a way to release the pressure, that is to write a side story.
The Classic of Mountains and Seas is a big mountain in my mind. I moved some of it out at the time. After writing it out, my whole person was overwhelmed.
I wrote seven or eight articles in a row, with more than 100,000 words, and this made my Blue and White Club come to an end.
It's a pity that Shanhaijing can no longer be written, because a book friend mentioned it: I will write this in the next book.
Oh, it's over, I look at my head again and again.
As soon as I merged in my heart, I found that there is no problem, it is indeed possible, and it fits very well. So the early Earth chapter of the Omniscientist of Information became like this.
It wasn’t originally. In the early stage of Huang Ji, it was all kinds of urban cool articles that could be seen through. For example, it was discovered that the universe had bugs. It was obviously a scientific world, and there was no martial arts.
So Huang Ji changed the order of the paragraphs and a few words of the Jiuyin Zhenjing made up by others on the Internet, and found that he could practice...
And the reason was later solved. In another universe, the Nine Yin Mantra can really be practiced.
This is one of the versions of the Omniscientist. It belongs to the early version. When I wrote the Shanhaijing Fanwai, I decided to abandon it.
I thought about several versions for Heidi, and Heidi finalized the version you are seeing now.
Gee. It is worthy of being reviewed by the Black Emperor, and there is no harmony at all.
But then again, I'm not happy.
Because I write the Shanhaijing extravaganza again, it will be a spoiler.
I haven't written a story for so long. Every time I have an idea, I can only write a few words and save it in the document, and I'm almost suffocated.
Since last month, my coding efficiency has become slower and slower, but I am almost finished thinking about the outline of the next book.
The next book is in an ancient setting, so much so that I have written a dozen poems...
The red face and blood, the Zhu Longma, the pure heart and the fire phoenix spear. Infatuation deepens the Yan Emperor, and the heroic daughter aspires to become the Ming Emperor. This is the hero and heroine of the next book...and a song that doesn't involve spoilers.
I'm speechless, I'm not just imagining the books I want to write, there are many books I don't plan to write.
Why do I take so many days off and always return to my original form? Because I lie in bed every day and can't sleep, I have to go to several imaginary worlds. I even thought about an e-sports novel... and the zoo world, only animals without humans, how many lions, how many cheetahs, how many flies, how many grass carp... Then how do they hunt, how do they reproduce, how do they migrate , how can some be saved from extinction?
Later, the population multiplied and the living space became smaller. It should be natural to let it go. However, sometimes I am soft-hearted and expand the land above, adding tens of thousands of square kilometers of grassland and forest...
In such a world, there are also magic, fantasy, martial arts, the Republic of China... all dynasties and generations.
Even the ancient times began from the Paleolithic Age, spanning three million years, to the Mesolithic Age, and the Neolithic Age of only 12,000 years. I threw Lin Xiqiu into the early Yangshao Culture, Banpo Culture, probably Shaodian Kingdom. He became an old monster who lived for hundreds of years, and then became the teacher of the Yellow Emperor... To be honest, Lin Xiqiu didn't know that he was taken by me. How many times have you played dead.
There are also various civilizations in the universe, including a race that is completely different from humans, and the planet is also completely different from the earth. How would such a race’s culture and thinking pattern be, I couldn’t help but think…
Thinking about it, coding time is such a waste.
You may say, it is useless, why do you have to think about it? Alas, I can't help it...
Instead of fantasizing, it's better to use it to write a story, but when you write a story, someone will say, 'If you have the time to write the story, why don't you write the text quickly? ’
So I suffer.
In fact, next, I am going to Nanjing Mianji again. Logically speaking, I should save the manuscript.
I have updated the code on the 8th, the overnight code on the 9th, and then take the train to Nanjing at night on the 9th.
Now I am coding all night, but I am sitting in front of the computer and want to code an extra part first, and then I will code the text of No. 9.
Above, I talked so much nonsense, just to explain: Why do I have the time to work outside this code, and I don't rush to write the text.
You can understand that my brain is uncomfortable and I want to write something 'I can write whatever I like'...
At the same time, this thing has to be seen by others, and then I get energy from readers.
If you want a horse to run, you must have a horse to graze.
When I write a sideshow, I am eating grass, and it is free.
...
The preface has been written, and now for the extras, Shanhaijing will not be talked about for the time being, it involves spoilers.
And sci-fi brain holes will also be used in the future. As for the containment, it can be written, but many of them have already been installed by me in the next book.
After much deliberation, only cultural and historical aspects can be written.
Chinese culture, to write from the root, I found that we have to start with Chinese characters.
Some people may be complaining: damn, why don't you start with Pangu Kaitian?
Gee, I think so, but Pangu is too young.
When the story of Pangu appeared, the Chinese civilization had passed for more than 3,000 years...
The most important thing in a civilization is words.
We can forget everything and change everything, but as long as the writing is there, civilization will survive.
Ancient Egypt, Babylonia, Ancient India, Ancient Maya...and China.
This is the reason why it is said that among the major ancient civilizations, only China has survived, and there is no need to add the word ancient in front of it.
We have not forgotten our own writing system, so our culture has been passed on.
Some people say that China has been wiped out by aliens, and civilization has been broken. I wonder if this is a joke?
Before the Yuan Dynasty, we used Chinese characters, and after the Yuan Dynasty, we still used Chinese characters. and no change.
The Song Dynasty perished, but after that scholars still studied Confucianism, even a theory and a political school did not perish, but civilization perished instead?
In fact, it is modern times that are the most nearly dead. A little too much impact from the west...
But even so, Chinese characters are still strong, so now we are slowly going back to make up for it, and carry forward some cultures again.
Let the old civilization glow a second spring.
Why is this possible? It is because Chinese characters are alive.
What are the external reasons and internal reasons, what is the transformation of the academic trend of thought, what are the national traditions, family factors... all need not be discussed.
In a word, if Chinese characters do not perish, China will not perish.
This thing is giving the whole civilization the bottom line! Such as the central Wutu, carrying all things.
She is like a bottom line, below is the abyss, above is all the cultures of a civilization.
The above culture can be lost, disappear, or be polluted, it doesn't matter, civilization is still there. In the future, it can be retrieved, evolved, and evolved.
But once the writing is gone, oh well, just like a plant loses its roots and a building loses its foundation, even if the culture on it is still there, it will be completely changed within five generations, or even disappear.
Maybe not five generations, but three generations is enough.
It can be said that if overnight, we don't use Chinese characters, but instead use pinyin or cuneiform or alien writing...
Then, we can officially declare: the days of the Han family are numbered, and China is over.
Even if all of us were alive...
Some people may say that Chinese characters have changed many times. The characters in the pre-Qin period are completely different from the current ones. Isn't this considered dead?
Of course not, from the engraved symbols of Liangzhu civilization, to oracle bone inscriptions, to bronze inscriptions, seal script, official script... to today's simplified characters.
Chinese characters are evolving, and this system is not dead, but just evolving.
Now find a few college students at random, give them a bunch of oracle bone inscriptions, and let them study them, and they can recognize them all.
Some simple characters don’t require experts to analyze them with you. When you put them out, elementary school students can recognize them: “Oh, this is a fire character, this is a herringbone, this is a field character, this is a moon character…”
On the other hand, Sumerian cuneiform writing, because there is no inheritor, wants to decipher it, and the old nose is useless.
Starting with the later Babylonian civilization in the Mesopotamia, it is said that the Babylonian civilization inherited the Sumerian civilization, and the Sumerian King List also has the same record.
So to decipher the Sumerian King List, first decipher the Babylonian text.
The Babylonian script is a phonetic script, which was recorded by the subsequent Akkadian Empire, and the language of the Akkadian Empire was inherited by the later Semitic civilization.
Then, through logic and comparison, from the existing written language, the Akkadian Empire’s description of Babylon was reversed to translate the Babylonian text, and then reversed and compared with the Sumerian King List to decipher.
Finally, after deciphering the Sumerian King List, I realized: Oh, this word means the sun...
Every ancient civilization has written words, why did they all die? Why is Chinese so strong? It is because most of them are phonetic characters.
How powerful was ancient Egypt? Such a wonder as the pyramid stands there, however, there is no record of it in Egypt. Their history books were written with the help of Arabs.
The Rosetta Stone records so many ancient Egyptian texts that no one in the world knows. The last young man deciphered it overnight with a pat of his head.
I don’t know if what he said is right or not, but the academic world agrees so, so I should too.
In short, he said that the ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic script is a mixture of pictographs and alphabets.
That's no wonder it died, because once the words are pinyin, it is easy to lose their core and finally die.
Ancient Egyptian characters, and even the characters of various ancient civilizations, were actually pictographic at the beginning, but for the sake of promotion, they began to develop into pinyin. Because the pinyin type of writing has the advantage of expressing infinite meanings with extremely limited words and combinations.
But there are also disadvantages, that is, once the language changes, but the text does not change with the rhythm, it is over, and it will not be used after a few generations.
Ancient Egypt was invaded and conquered countless times, experienced language assimilation, cultural shock, plus killing and destruction.
Their writing system is too fragile to experience this kind of turmoil. The rulers have changed, the conquerors are aliens, and their language has changed, and the writing has not had time to change, so they died.
Once the written word died, all kinds of cultures also died. Instead, other civilizations helped to record some myths.
This is also a major reason why ancient Egyptian characters are considered fake, and their characters have not changed! The cultural relics unearthed span two thousand years, and they all have the same characters.
If there is no fraud, then it can only be said that the ancient Egyptian writing is too slow to keep pace with the times, and there is no self-renewal system.
Conversely, Chinese characters are hieroglyphic and syllable characters.
Dual-core processors, and won't be bogged down by language changes.
The pronunciation of Chinese has changed a long time ago. It is difficult to speak with Wenzhou people, not to mention the ancients... But this does not hinder literacy!
To put it bluntly, any software is compatible.
For example, the word '人', if it is not called ren, and I call it Waibibabu, so what? As long as we define Waibibabu as the meaning of human beings, then write human beings and use the connotation of this word to derive other meanings.
Then use it as usual, the system has not changed, and you can still use it to write various applications.
The oldest form of Chinese characters is pictographic. After using it, the ancients discovered that pictograms are not enough, words are not enough, and some conceptual characters cannot be pictographic.
So we added 'knowledge', and invented more words through the combination of knowing.
During the same period, other ancient civilizations also felt that it was not enough, but they did not move towards comprehension, but towards pronunciation.
In the short term, Pinyin characters are extremely suitable for popularization. Set a few characters for pronunciation, and then spell how people speak. After seeing the sentence, spell out all the words and it will become a sentence, and then understand the meaning. This is the case with Korean characters. It is easy to create, and it can be done in one generation.
But as I said before, future generations will be in trouble, what if the language changes? Hurry to recreate? But the conquest of foreign races is in dire straits, what should I do if I don't have the time to spare?
Even if I have this spare time, I don't have this awareness, because most of the language changes are gradual, just like the formation of dialects.
It is the cumulative change of several generations, and the older generation will react only after they die. It’s like changing a few parts of a ship today, changing some boards tomorrow, boiling frogs in warm water, and changing them, driving away the aliens, announcing the retro, and when you want to get back the words, you suddenly look back and find that you don’t know the words.
What to do if you don’t know it, you still have to live. It just so happens that the previous conquerors left their writing, and it’s very good to use, so let’s continue to use it.
At this point, ancient Egypt died.
The roads of various ancient civilizations were basically narrowed in this way.
China's road has obviously been widened. Although it is difficult to popularize it for a while, it will benefit the future.
Pictograms and comprehension are dual-core, why do I still say it cuts the sound, because it can also convey meaning simply by expressing the sound among contemporaries.
For example, if I say Qing Shi He Di, Juedi Tian Tong, you still know what it means.
I often use Chinese characters as a tool to study the connotation of ancient characters, and then interpret some ancient things such as the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
Such as gods, such as dragons and emperors.
I want to know how the ancients conceived of this thing, and see how he created the characters, isn't that the end?
There is no way to do this with pinyin characters. Suppose now, all the descriptions of the western dragon are deleted, and then the dragon is taken out, which is the word drag root, then no one will know what this word means...
The archaeologist was exhausted, and he couldn't decipher what it meant. Finally, he contacted the context and guessed: Oh, it may be a personal name! You see, St. George killed it and was canonized. This should be a heretical name, or it may be the name of the evil god of the pagan belief...
Studying ancient Chinese characters, you can pictographically, understand, and trace the ideas of the ancients.
The study of new vocabulary on the modern Internet can not only cut sounds, but also connotation. For example, you are pregnant, you are pregnant, you are pregnant, you are pregnant...
Cough cough, the basic disk is about the same, then we can say a few words in detail.
Since we are talking about Chinese characters, let’s say the word “Han” first.
This is my nation at the same time, I don't know which one of you happened to be this nation.
Later generations call it Hanzi and Haohan, which is actually the abbreviation of Haoyi Hanjiazi.
Back then, the sons of the Han family from the six counties swept across the desert and became famous. Now the daughters of Jin State in Kyushu are nothing more than two-legged sheep in the cauldron. (also a poem in the next book)
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty selected the sons of good families from the six counties of Guanzhong, formed cavalry, and drove north to the Xiongnu, which gave a nation the confidence to stand up for thousands of years.
But this is also a matter of the future, so what is the meaning of this word before the establishment of Dahan?
Han, there is no doubt that this is a water system. It refers to the Han River and the Han River.
The ancients liked to make up characters for various rivers. What rivers and rivers are mentioned now are all later. At the beginning, a character represented a water system.
For example, he refers specifically to the Yellow River. 'Jiang' refers specifically to the Yangtze River.
There are many similar characters, such as Huai, Ji, Wei, Jing, Luo, Ba, Xiao, Xiang, Wen, Ru, Hui, Si, Bian, Zhang, Gu, Li, Xun, Zi, Lu, Tuo, Fu, Fei...
There are probably dozens more that have not been mentioned, such as Cang, but that is all you are familiar with.
There are three points of water, and the other half, some are place names, some express characteristics, some conform to its image, or endow it with special meaning.
The other half is by no means written blindly. The revolving door created characters for He must have a meaning.
For example, the word Ji, there is a saying that the Yellow Emperor was born in Weishui, so he took this as his surname and changed it to a female character, called Ji.
What do you mean? In fact, the right half is not visible now, but in the oracle bone inscriptions, it is a pictographic and plump figure. On the other side are women who have given birth pictographically... In fact, the meaning is a beautiful young woman with plump breasts.
If it is a river, it means that it is a beautiful, plump, fertile, nourishing and nourishing mother river on both banks.
Well, this is the surname... I can only say that the Yellow Emperor did not forget his roots...
Back to the topic, the traditional Chinese character is Han.
Although there are few famous people with this as their surname, there was a dynasty that used it as its country name, and later it became the name of a nation.
Some people simply said that because Liu Bang was enshrined in Hanshui, he was called the king of Han, so the country was later called Han.
Obviously not that simple, the word must have its own reputation. Otherwise, this character would not be used as the title of the country.
Xiao He said: The language is called Tianhan, and its name is very beautiful.
So what does Han mean? Those who know Baidu must know it, and those who have read my first two books must know it too.
It means the galaxy.
So what is the logic? Why does it mean galaxy? This is academically inconclusive and lacks archaeological evidence, so it can only be guessed.
Guess... In fact, in the pre-Qin period, a large number of Chu people wrote it as 'tan', which is a fake Chinese word.
I suspect that the ancient meaning of Han refers to the clear separation between sand and water, and the appearance of thousands of gravel stars as if they were woven into cloth.
Many people think that the word tan is three points of water plus difficulty. But that would be illogical... Chinese characters are not made that way.
I think it's actually '汉' plus '隹'.
隹 is the collective name for short-tailed birds. We also know the meaning of beach, which means beach on the water's edge.
Therefore, when making Tan characters, a Chinese character and a 隹 together are a place where birds trample on thousands of gravels, like cloth by the water. This place is the beach.
In this way, the logic is right.
Including Han himself is also in this knowing way, three points of water, swallows step on the soil. Combined into Han.
Moreover, if Han refers to thousands of gravels that are clearly visible, it also matches the reality of the Han River.
The reality of the Han River is famous for its many dangerous beaches, and if there is heavy rainfall, a large amount of sediment will be washed into the Han River upstream, and half clear and half turbid yellow sand will form in the Han River. Of course, it is relatively rare, but there will be such a situation. natural phenomenon.
There is the Han River on the ground, and Xiaohan in the sky.
This is the extended meaning of Han. The ancients looked up at the Milky Way and gave it a name. Because it looks like a river, they named it directly after the river on the ground.
In fact, it refers to the Milky Way in the sky, like countless stars and gravels densely arranged, but not muddy together.
It's a bit like a clear river with countless pebbles and gravel. It feels like lying quietly in the water. Through the river water, you can see the gravel clearly, row upon row, one by one, large and small, sparkling.
The names Yinhe and Tianhe appeared very late, and the Milky Way was first known to be called Yunhan and Xiaohan.
The ancients created hundreds of characters for the water system, but chose Han to name the Milky Way, which shows that the meaning of this word is rich and beautiful, and the connotation must perfectly fit the image of the Milky Way.
What Xiao He said is right, its name is very beautiful. So as the country name of the big man.
Zhuobi Yunhan, Zhaohui to the sky. Han is a country as bright as a galaxy, and the Han nationality is the Milky Way family.
Until this nation goes to heaven, explores the vast universe, and doesn't even live on the earth, this name will not be outdated!
We are the people of the galaxy!
but!
Alas, it would have been a good ending, but if you just talk about this, it will be popular science.
I am a person who likes to go back to the ancient times. I have a question. If I don’t think about it, I can’t sleep.
Han is not an ancient character, on the contrary, it was born relatively late in the Chinese character system. It was only found in the Zhou Dynasty, and this word is not found in oracle bone inscriptions.
Moreover, the Hanshui River is not in the Central Plains, but to the west of the Canglang River in the south. So in ancient times, did people in the Central Plains also use Hanshui to call the Milky Way? I'm afraid it's not right?
So, what was the Milky Way called in ancient times? Why didn't the Central Plains people pass it down?
This is really a very strange thing. Is the Milky Way conspicuous, or the Han River? Why did the people of the Zhou Dynasty name the Milky Way Han? Is it named after a river?
Generally speaking, logically, this means that the river came first, and then the Milky Way.
People in the Zhou Dynasty named it, indicating that it has no name. He also gave it the name of the river, which shows that the ancients named the Han River earlier than naming the Milky Way!
Isn't that weird? The ancients specially created characters for countless rivers, but didn't they create a character for the Milky Way? There is such a large Milky Way in the sky, there is no line?
No one has thought about this question for thousands of years, but I don’t like to think about it because I am too full to eat.
In this regard, I have three guesses.
First, the Milky Way had a name, but it was lost, so people in Zhou had to get a new one. They think that it is like the Han River in the sky, so let's call it Tianhan.
But this conjecture is the most outrageous, funny, how could the name of Yinhe be lost?
The ancients paid the most attention to astronomical phenomena! Canglong astrology and other various constellations have existed since ancient times. The Yellow Emperor established the calendar, Zhuanxu established the calendar, Emperor Ku also practiced the calendar, and all subsequent dynasties also practiced the calendar.
A turquoise dragon was unearthed from the Erlitou site, which is exactly the same as the Canglong star. The first phase of the Heluo Ancient Kingdom unearthed not long ago also has an astronomical observatory, corresponding to various stars in the sky.
Polaris, Mars, Saturn and other stars have names since ancient times, but the Milky Way has no name? Or can the name be lost? The odds are too small.
Such a dazzling piece of the sky! To lose nothing is to lose it! This kind of conjecture underestimates the status of the Milky Way.
So, the second type. The name of the Milky Way has not been lost. There was indeed a name in ancient times. I don’t know what it was called, because when it was passed down to the Zhou Dynasty, the Zhou people changed its name.
The previous name was abolished and changed to Han.
Barely makes sense, but! This puts the status of the galaxy too high, too weird.
The Zhou Dynasty didn’t change anything, but with so many names passed down from the Shang Dynasty, just change it to Galaxy? Looking at the Milky Way is not pleasing to the eye? Is the Milky Way the totem of Yin merchants?
No, Yin merchants don't worship the Milky Way at all, or in other words, there is no record of the Milky Way in the oracle bone inscriptions discovered so far!
This kind of record was definitely not erased by the people of the Zhou Dynasty. They did not have the ability. Most of the oracle bone inscriptions were buried long ago and excavated by modern people.
So what about Yin Shang and the Milky Way in the eyes of people before? Where did it go?
The earliest record is the Western Zhou Dynasty, including cultural relics, which makes me have to think of the third possibility.
Third, there is no galaxy.
To be precise, for a long time in ancient times, until the Western Zhou Dynasty, the ancients could not see the Milky Way!
Everyone knows the Milky Way. I could still see part of it when I was a child, but now I can't see it at all. At night, we can only see a few stars such as Sirius and Polaris when we look up.
The full version of the Milky Way can now only be seen in remote, uninhabited areas, or places like the North Pole and South Pole.
The reason is simple, air pollution. The better the environment and the lower the light pollution, the clearer the Milky Way will be.
Depending on the degree of air pollution and even the degree of light pollution, the number of stars we can see is different, and the clarity of the Milky Way we see is naturally different.
By checking the video on the Internet, you can see the vastness of the Milky Way, which is really eye-catching. That's the full version, defined as one hundred percent.
In the western plateau, about 80% of the Milky Way can be seen.
In the countryside or mountains, you should be able to see about 20 to 30 percent.
As for the city, it is completely invisible, the sky is dark, only a few faint stars.
In this way, it is inferred from common sense that the ancients should be able to see the Milky Way with 100% clarity. Why not?
Is there air pollution in ancient times? Still serious?
I'm not arrogant, but I have some evidence.
The Book of Songs of the Western Zhou Dynasty said: Wei Tian has Han, and Jian also has light. If you fall down on the Weaver Girl, you will have seven xiangs all day long.
The meaning is simple: there is a Milky Way in the corner of the sky, shining like a mirror. It takes seven hours from the beginning of the Weaver Girl in the sky until it falls to the horizon. Although it took so long, the Weaver Girl was running in the sky, but did not weave a single piece of cloth.
The cowherd on the other side of the river held the box for her, but it was empty. Because the Weaver Girl did not weave cloth.
It is a very simple poem, and there is a legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl in the Western Zhou Dynasty.
After all, the two stars of Weaver Girl and Altair are so bright that they can be seen clearly since ancient times. Weaver Girl also did Polaris for a while.
We all know that the legend of the Milky Way is the Weaver Girl in the sky, woven out of countless stars.
This legend is quite romantic, but now that I think about it, I am terrified to think about it.
Weaving is a process of weaving, and the scattered silk threads are dense and rich little by little, and finally form a whole piece of practice!
Why did Zhou people imagine the Milky Way as a feeling of slowly weaving? Why create a legend that the Milky Way was created by Vega?
What's even more terrifying is... This poem written by the Western Zhou Shijing said that she did not knit it, but that she hadn't knitted it yet! Or not finished!
Can I think that the Milky Way was still not visible during the Xia and Shang Dynasties. There were stars in the sky, but not many. It was roughly equivalent to the starry sky we saw before the reform and opening up. , Sirius, Canglong Qisu, Orion Samsung and the like, these are still visible.
But that's all, the whole is as vast as a galaxy, but the ancients could not see it. So I named the constellations, not the Milky Way.
But the nature of the earth has the function of self-purification. During the Xia and Shang dynasties, the environment slowly recovered, and during the Western Zhou dynasties, the world returned to its original and undeveloped appearance. The air is fresh and the starry sky is dazzling!
The people of the Zhou Dynasty have seen with their own eyes the process of the sky becoming clearer and clearer!
The Milky Way is from sparse to dense, from dark to bright, from scattered constellations, to the vastness of a long river, traversing the sky!
They have witnessed this process, looking up every year, they can see a clearer and denser Milky Way than last year!
It's like strands of silk threads, stardust, woven little by little among the bright Weaver Girl and the two Altair stars!
Like the industrious Weaver Girl in the sky, she runs for fourteen hours a day, combing the star belt every night.
They saw it with their own eyes! Give it a name: Tianhan!
The Xiaohan in the sky is like the Han water on the ground, as if the turbid river water suddenly became clear, and the 'sand' and 'water' became clear! Thousands of stars and gravels seem to gradually settle down, and people can see them clearly emerge through the river!
This kind of feeling, this kind of testimony like Hanshui's half river, half river and yellow, is vividly interpreted in the eyes of the people of the Zhou Dynasty.
Day after day, year after year, the stars move round and round again and again, from the obscurity of ancient times, to the small light like a mirror, and then to the Heavenly Clouds and Han, Zhao Hui in the sky, a great light as vast as the sun.
Since then, for the ancients who valued celestial phenomena, the Milky Way has become an astronomical phenomenon that can no longer be avoided and must be mentioned.
Zhuo He Yunhan, Zhao Hui in the sky! The language is called Tianhan, and its name is very beautiful!
Really beautiful, this is the most beautiful connotation of the word 'Han'.
And those of us who have studied science know what's going on... The environment of air pollution is gradually being purified by nature.
Ours, named Han, are now experiencing industrial pollution and can no longer see the starry sky, like a cycle of reincarnation.
So the question is, why was there such serious air pollution in ancient times? What is contaminated?
It is even very possible that the pollution continued for a long time. It was not until the Yao and Shun era that the pollution was reduced, the Xia and Shang began to recover, and the nature was not purified until the Western Zhou Dynasty.
What about earlier? During the Yanhuang and Zhuanxu periods, what was continuously polluting the earth's atmosphere?
Sigh, forget it, this is just talking about the series of Chinese characters, not the Classic of Mountains and Seas. Let’s just talk about it, let’s take a look, it’s not connected together, so... I don’t know why.
There may really be aliens who have tossed the earth.
It is also possible that the earth has ancient civilizations, and they also had an industrial age. They polluted the earth as severely as our modern times, and finally went backwards and started all over again.
It may even be the follow-up effect of ancient nuclear wars. After a world war, humans started playing again from the Stone Age until today.
Don't think it's impossible, it's still possible. Because if our modern civilization is destroyed by a nuclear war, it will only take tens of thousands of years, and nothing will be left except plastic and nuclear reactors...
The invention of plastic may be a coincidence. Steel cities, automobiles and ships will all return to ashes and ashes in less than a thousand years.
Modern buildings can survive 100,000 years, only stones...
Well, who knows?
Although the ancients could not see the Milky Way, no one mentioned it, but I just researched it blindly.
But I think it might be true.
So why? Why did the Milky Way slowly emerge in the Western Zhou Dynasty, and why was there air pollution in ancient times?
What happened to our ancestors? Or what did they do? How many unknown things have been annihilated in time.
I really want to know.
I can't wait to go to archaeology, I can't wait to study the ancestors all my life, but I should finally code... woo woo woo.
At the beginning of ancient times, who preached it?
