Chapter 16 Enlightenment and ‘Literacy’ Dilemma (Let’s change the language settings here for the middle revision)

At the center of the tribe, the witch doctor's courtyard was once again dug out into several basements thanks to the efforts of the soldiers.

"Hey, hey, hey."

Several teams of troll warriors transported piles of clay tablets underground. The number of 'books' stacked in the open air in the courtyard gradually decreased, and all were moved before nightfall.

Afterwards, the four witch doctors, including Blade Ya, looked at the final results accumulated in several basements and smiled happily.

"Banya, this, the last clay tablet, should be placed by you yourself."

The old witch doctor took a clay tablet with the four characters "Principles of Magic" written on it and handed it to Blade Ya.

'Well, it's finally over. It's been such a long process.'

Blade Ya looked at the clay tablet in his hand and sighed silently.

"In the past, when I was a child, I didn't dare to think about this situation. In just one cycle of growth, there is more than the treasures of several generations of sages! Blade teeth, great achievements!"

The old witch doctor stroked his beard and responded, then looked at the chief who was listening and continued to ask,

“How about ‘literacy’ for soldiers?”

"What do you think about the new system grading and the enlightenment words for young children discussed earlier?"

"Haha, a new era is about to begin, and we will move forward together."

Maybe it’s because the wood in the black forest is generally too moist, or maybe it’s due to other unknown reasons. Among tribes that haven’t yet been able to develop the skill of ‘drilling wood to make fire’, the scene in the conference room is truly incredible.

The old witch doctor finally said this, and the three of them nodded in agreement.

"The young child was taught, and I agree with the old witch doctor's theory. The meditation method of the other blades, or me, Jianya (the Chinese witch doctor who developed the "Wind Wolf Meditation Method"), is too difficult and unprofitable in the early stage."

"It's difficult. So far, new languages ​​​​and new words have been popularized; but there are only a hundred people who can recognize the pinyin, and less than twenty people who are literate."

"The light of night, the wonders, the great deeds of magic?"

“Geometric meditation is the best.”

"If I were asked to directly come up with a feasible solution, I really don't have the ability. So, what I want to express next is the 'idea'."

Returning to the conference room, the old troll asked after using flame magic to ignite the newly built fireplace and the lamps on the wall that were made of animal fat as fuel and lamp cores made of flame-resistant monster hair.

"One's own career begins with the accumulation of past generations. I dare not take credit for it. The credit comes from the teachings of witch doctors."

Roughly speaking, their dialogue is as follows (from here on, the following chapters will not imitate the damn 'original troll language', it really can't be changed. As for new readers, I can only talk about the previous settings

, the protagonist directly popularized Chinese characters and modern Chinese grammar when he was 'creating characters', so these dialogues were feasible according to the logic at that time. But weren't they persuaded by readers to change the setting before?)

The clay tablets that were piled up in several basements and barely filled up were undoubtedly far more than the accumulated knowledge of the previous generations. This work contained the countless efforts of the four witch doctors.

"Furthermore, you, the witch doctor, teach me, but I am the only four warriors left. Since then, I have focused on the research of 'magic' and have never taught anything. The warriors are generally dull. With only the five of us, it is difficult to teach with the spread of the new language."

Words? I don’t care.”

"Then let me talk about the overall situation. The emergence of 'writing' has made the accumulation and inheritance of knowledge more convenient; the innovation of the 'spell' system has also lowered the threshold for transforming knowledge into power; all these changes have

It made me see the importance of 'innovation and development'. And 'innovation and development' not only requires geniuses like Ben Ya to promote it on their own, but also requires ordinary witch doctors like me to serve as the cornerstone."

"Well, countermeasures are born in response to needs. Clear organization is a shortcut to the conclusion, so let's discuss it. Let's talk about the benefits first, from the whole to the individual. Let me go first and give everyone a head start."

"Since it was delivered, it has passed half of its prime years, so why?"

The four witch doctors looked at each other after hearing this, realizing how difficult this problem was.

"It was our negligence and it was a pity that we wasted our time. Do you have any ideas?"

"Second, as the chief said before, 'The hunting burden is heavy,' which means there is no spare time, right? This requires considering why there is not enough time, and in order to increase this time, what do we lack and what can we do?"

"Please."

"In this case, I will try my best to simplify the paper and make it easy to learn; and I will participate in the next seminar with you to formulate the regulations."

In the silence, Blade Ya's voice sounded, and after seeing that everyone's attention was focused, he began to express his thoughts.

Hearing this, all the trolls present were thoughtful, and the old troll even nodded and expressed his stance,

What they were talking about was the "Principles of Magic" that was finally finalized after countless seminars, based on the original idea of ​​Blade Ya, and after adding the "academic achievements" of the three witch doctors.

"What you say is reasonable. I also think so. I would like to learn from you that the threshold can be low or high. It is not too late to discuss the future path from the level of 'Magic Crystal Spellcasting'."

"Old witch doctor, warriors need to hunt, gather, and defend. The burden is heavy and they really have no time to spare. And"

"Moreover, there are many people who say they 'don't learn', and their words are of no use to hunting. They are unwilling to learn and achieve results, and rely on coercion."

After the old witch doctor finished speaking, the conference room fell into silence for a while. After all, "countermeasures" cannot be obtained by just patting on the head.

"I have some opinions."

"First, 'learning' is a job that relies heavily on 'initiative', especially for soldiers who do not have enough time. We must let them understand why they need to be literate? And to do this, we must first

To unify our own cognition, first reach a consensus in a small scale. From the tribe as a whole to individual trolls, what are the benefits of making the warriors literate? After that, we can use unified conclusions to think about the warriors.

Work."

The tribal chief, who was also preparing to participate in the subsequent discussion, had obvious envy in his tone.

The chief dug his fangs, hesitating to speak in embarrassment, and finally said cruelly,

"Well, please go first."

The sharp-toothed witch doctor also expressed his agreement, and then asked again,

"Banya, how about it?"

Because the discussion was too complicated, Blade Ya struggled to speak in troll language for a long time before he fully expressed what he meant and completed the exchange of ideas with other witch doctors.

When Blade Ya heard this, he just smiled shyly, clasped his head to show his humility, and did not interrupt the old witch doctor's speech.

"Geniuses are hard to come by, and only one appears in countless generations; but witch doctors like me are different. As long as there is a 'civilized' soil to nurture them, they will always appear one after another."

"So, 'civilization' is necessary. And if we don't want to continue to be barbaric, then for the tribe, mastering 'knowledge' will no longer be the responsibility of a few witch doctors, but will become the second most important thing for the entire tribe."

survival' important goal."

"Therefore, the literacy of soldiers must be urgent."
