Looking at the totem symbol symbolizing Pakistan, the middle-aged man asked: "If it also represents a word, what word should it be?"
Huwa replied: "The ancestors of the Ba Kingdom claimed to be descendants of Emperor Taihao. It is said that Emperor Taihao's tribe used snakes as their totem. The symbol of the Ba Kingdom also evolved from a big snake and has a fixed painting method.
If you ask what kind of word this is, then it is the word 'Ba', which not only represents Xiangshi Kingdom, but also represents the Five Kingdoms of Ba Yuan and the Ba Kingdom of that year, and also represents the entire Ba Yuan."
The middle-aged man asked again: "The character 'Ba' you drew, does it have the idea of controlling gods?"
Huwa then replied: "No, but everyone knows it and knows what it means." When he said this, it was as if something had opened up in the chaos. He suddenly understood what the middle-aged man meant, and nodded again,
"I see!"
The middle-aged man smiled with satisfaction and said, "Is it fun?"
Huwa: “It’s fun!”
Middle-aged man: "Then you go on playing, I'll watch while I drink."
Huwa picked up his own branch and ate the meat on the skewer. While eating, he was thinking about what words he wanted to draw. When the meat was finished, he reached out and flicked it in the air to smooth the ground. He first drew a word
Two lines were drawn vertically and diagonally across each other. He had seen this pattern on the village wall in Lu Village. It was an embellishment of the hunting scene and represented the trees growing on the mountain.
Gong Yuan murmured: "What is this?"
Hougang answered: "This is a tree. I have traveled around the world with my husband, and I have seen it in the rock paintings of many ancestors, on the rune carvings of the past dynasties, and on the patterns of many utensils."
Huwa nodded and said: "Yes, what I drew is a tree. In fact, according to what the teacher said, this is not just a painting, but a kind of writing." Then he drew a circle under the tree and ticked under the circle.
After a few strokes, the circle became a small head, with a small body underneath with arms spread out, a bit like a swaddled baby.
Gong Yuan wondered: "What is this, a child in the mountains?"
The middle-aged man was drinking wine, pointing to a tree in bud not far away and saying: "This is the word 'Li'. Plum tree means plum, right?" He may be afraid that these juniors will not understand.
The voice was filled with spiritual thoughts again.
The plum tree that people spoke of at that time not only refers to a kind of tree, but also uses "李" to refer to trees, which means that they bloom in spring and have edible fruits. Such fruit trees are called plums in a broad sense. Later, people's language became richer
Yes, plum sometimes also refers to a kind of fruit tree, which can produce dark red round fruits that are plump, juicy, sweet and sour.
In the languages of various countries in Bayuan, Li, Li, and Li all have the same pronunciation and express different meanings in different language combinations. However, they are often confused. When people mention "Li", they sometimes also mean trees.
The process of blossoming and bearing fruit symbolizes the law of development of things and the final result. Its meaning is similar to "reason", and in short, it needs to be understood well.
Huwa sincerely praised: "Sir's guess is really accurate. What I want to draw is the character 'Li'. Just now, the husband drew 'Li' and 'Li', so I followed his idea and drew this character.
Sir, he recognized him at a glance."
The middle-aged man looked at Huwa with a very serious look. He sat upright unconsciously and asked, "Have you seen this kind of rune before?"
Huwa answered honestly: "I have seen rock paintings that depict trees like that, but this character 'Li' was just painted by me. This is the first time I have seen it myself."
The middle-aged man couldn't help but nod his head again and again: "This word can be used to spread the word of God, and it can be used as a text. I have traveled all over the world to study the rune totems of the past dynasties, and observed the traces of birds and beasts in the world. This is the first time I have seen someone draw it.
I missed the word '李'. Thank you very much, little sir, and I'll give you a toast!"
Gong Yuan, who was in a daze, quickly poured wine for the two of them. The middle-aged man knelt on the ground and held the cup between his eyebrows. He toasted in a formal and solemn manner. Huwa hurriedly returned the courtesy and said: "Sir, you don't have to thank me. This is not what you taught me just now."
Did I play?"
The middle-aged man drank the wine in the cup and said: "Thank you, thank you!... Little sir, what other words can you draw?"
Huwa smiled bitterly and said, "You asked me that. I'm a little confused too. I don't know what else to draw."
The middle-aged man's eyes changed, revealing an eager light. He leaned forward and said in a coaxing tone: "What do you want in practice? What kind of state of mind do you have when you come here and see this scene? Whatever you think of,
What are you drawing?"
Huwa turned his head and looked to the side, and found that Panhu was staring at the runes on the ground with his dog head stretched out and thinking. He erased the runes just now and drew a small head on the ground, symbolizing the head or
After thinking about it, I added a bunch of hair on top to show the bun, indicating that this is a human head and not a dog's head.
Then he drew a few more creases around his head, like an intersection. The middle-aged man nodded and said thoughtfully: "Well, this is a person standing at the intersection thinking - where should we go?"
Huwa then drew another foot under the rune and made a few strokes to complete it. The middle-aged man frowned and asked, "What character did you draw?"
Huwa smiled and replied: "To answer what you just asked, sir, this is the word 'Tao'."
The middle-aged man stopped holding the wine glass in his hand and stared at it for a long time with his mouth open. Then he seemed to suddenly come back to his senses and said: "I'm afraid today is the first time in this world that someone has drawn the word 'Tao'. I just said
What is meant is 'propriety' and 'reason', but you have drawn the 'Tao', etiquette and reason, thinking and seeking, action and demonstration are all included in it. Little sir, you are smart, I will give you another drink!"
He raised the wine glass high above his eyebrows and leaned over to toast a glass of wine. Huwa returned the gesture and drank it together. He looked at the rune drawn on the ground, thought about it and added a few strokes at the top. The drawing looked like a hand.
The middle-aged man smiled and said: "You can just draw a foot on the bottom, and I will understand what it means. Why do you need to add a hand on top?"
Huwa replied: "The painting is of people walking on the road. I added a hand in front to show guidance and guidance, and also to symbolize inheritance... Thank you sir for your teaching today. Come, come, I respect you sir."
One drink!" Huwa got excited and had fun. Before the middle-aged man came to him, he started to take the initiative to find him a drink.
The middle-aged man drank from a cup with his left hand and flicked his fingers towards the ground. He did not erase all the runes on the ground, but only erased the top hand and the head in the middle of the intersection. Then he used his own branch to
I added a few strokes to it.
In Huwa's eyes, he seemed to see a long pole with manes tied on it, which was the knot that the messenger inserted in the car. Before the middle-aged man could ask, he answered quickly: "You mean that someone is on the way, so this word
Well, it can be either 'catch up' or 'chase'."
The middle-aged man laughed loudly and said: "Yes, yes, it is true. The same word we say can be expressed in different languages, and the same language can also mean many things... Come on, come on, let's continue drinking."
Don’t be stunned and continue eating meat!”
Huwa also laughed loudly. Children of his age are still fun after all, let alone encountering something so fun today. Hou Gang watched and ate the meat with a very focused expression; Panhu watched while eating the meat.
The expression was very curious. Only Gong Yuan felt bored. It was already late at night and she couldn't help but yawn.
The middle-aged man turned his head and said: "Gong Yuan, why do you feel impatient about such an interesting thing?"
Gong Yuan quickly cheered up and replied: "No, I just feel a little sleepy." Then she explained, "Mr. Cai was talking about etiquette just now. Why did he draw runes on the ground while talking?"
Middle-aged man: "Your father wants you to be my disciple, and my magical power of runes is unparalleled in the world. You have such a good opportunity, why don't you take it seriously?"
Gong Yuan did not dare to talk back, so she had to explain: "I was really looking at the talisman painted by Mr. Cai just now, but the talisman painted by Mr. Xiao later did not have any magical powers. It was similar to the rock paintings in the mountains.
It just has a different meaning and can refer to the text in the endorsement, so I feel a little sleepy."
Middle-aged man: "Your father asked you to study with me, but you don't know what you should really learn. If you just want to seek magical powers, why come to me!"
Huwa interjected: "Sir's magical power is indeed amazing. He is a good teacher that is hard to find in this world!"
The middle-aged man pointed at Hougang and said, "He is my tribe, my family, and my descendant. You must be wondering why he has no cultivation, and why do I keep him with me?"
Huwa: "I did feel a little strange just now. Please enlighten me sir."
But the middle-aged man asked: "Son, your master has taught you magical powers and secrets, right?"
Huwa shook his head and said: "No, he was just telling me the mysteries of the various levels of cultivation."
This answer stunned the middle-aged man. After being stunned for a long time, he said: "I just wanted to say that your master taught you to practice, and what he taught you cannot be just secret techniques and supernatural powers. Since you answered like that, I will ask you directly.
That’s it. Why can someone who has cultivated in the Sixth Realm be called a real master in this world? If it’s really a fight, can he definitely defeat a Fifth Realm monk?”
Huwa replied: "In most cases, you should be able to fight. After all, your cultivation level is higher. But this is not necessarily the case. It depends on other circumstances."
Middle-aged man: "You're talking nonsense! Just this thin line between them, maybe there's not much difference in magical power. What's the difference?"
Huwa replied: "Inherited! The cultivation of the six realms has the power of spiritual thoughts. It can know all things and all kinds of magical powers and magical methods, all of which are left in the mind of the descendants. What they have seen and learned in a lifetime can be condensed.
Refining the essence can leave a truly complete inheritance. There are many secret techniques in cultivation, and it is difficult to pass them on without spiritual thoughts and heart seals, and future generations will have to explore them from scratch."
The middle-aged man held the cup and said, "I have a great wish, so that all people in the world can possess the merits of the Six Realms."
Huwa was so drunk that he was almost awakened by these words, and said in horror: "How is this possible!"
