After asking Sheeran this question, Fan Ning talked about some general information he knew:
"I only know from popular popular history books that the early part of the Third History belongs to the short-lived Noahic dynasty, and then the Tulungalia period that lasted for more than 1,400 years. This was a feudal dynasty that was at its peak.
At that time, it once ruled almost all the territories in the world except for the Southern Continent. It was later overthrown by its subordinate state in the Northern Continent, the Hoffmann Empire, and the third history also ended with its end."
Sheeran held her fist and put it against her chin to look at Fan Ning for a while, her eyes seemed to be filled with doubts: "Aren't I talking to you about the lack of adjectives and the beauty brought by metaphors?"
But she still said: "Actually, you have already covered the basic information. A more professional history book only has more information on the politics, economy, humanities of the Tulungalia dynasty, as well as some clearly recorded historical events.
It’s just a detailed and more rigorous research…”
"I guess what you care about may be something biased toward secret history?"
"Of course." Fan Ning nodded, "Now we need to find the instigator behind the death of Teacher Anton. We need to decipher the document related to the 'Illusion Man Secret Technique' as soon as possible. Naturally, we need to focus on the more mysterious things.
."
"Speaking of which, I haven't paid much attention to this before." Sheeran pursed her lips and thought, "But Joan did exchange a lot of information fragments with me about the secret history of the Tulungalia Dynasty. Later, my father and I were researching
In the ancient language, many unusual things were discovered based on this."
Fan Ning's eyes lit up: "Tell me about it?"
"First of all, the name Tulungaria. Its pronunciation can be traced back to its origin. In fact, it is very similar to the pronunciation of an advanced vocabulary in the Noa language..."
"Um?"
This is normal. Tulungarian and Old Hofmann are originally two branches of the Noa language. The former more completely retains the inflection of the Noa language, while the latter is gradually subject to polymodal synthesis.
The influence of language.
"The word means: love."
"Love?" This statement made Fan Ning feel confused for a moment.
Maybe this can still be called the "Land of Love" or the "Dynasty of Love"? Isn't the style of this painting too inconsistent?
"By the way, why do you say it is an advanced vocabulary in Noah's language?" Fan Ning grasped another question detail, "The word love should be the simplest and most basic in all languages, and it is the most important word for young children to learn the language.
One of the first batch of words to master..."
He thought for a while and then added: "Well, also, the pronunciation of 'love' is usually simple, but the pronunciation of the word 'Tulungalia' is relatively long and complicated. Is it possible that the pronunciation of the two is similar?"
Just a coincidence?"
"Your question is the same as our question at that time."
Sheeran explained: "However, we did a trial study"
"We tried our best to sort out all the words in Noah's language that have similar meanings to 'love' to the best of our ability, and later found more than seventy words! I even suspected that in fact, the word 'love' in Noah's language was
The number of words has exceeded 100.”
"Their subdivisions focus on meanings including like, good impression, fascination, admiration, reverence, belief, attachment, attachment, belonging, and longing. Many complex inflection words are expressions of a certain type of context, such as great artistic personalities.
Admiration for the opposite sex, long-term affection for the opposite sex, love for nature, attachment that has not been seen for many years, strong erotic attraction, a sense of belonging to the living world, longing for what is behind the hazy veil, a deep feeling that spans life and death.
faith, etc.”
"And the word 'Tulungaria' is the most serious, the most transcendent, the highest level, and cannot be abused among all the words for 'love' in the Noahic language. What it describes is divine love.
, ecstatic love, supreme love, revealed love, angelic love, it is forbidden to be used as a verb in the phrase 'I love you'."
When Sheeran said this, his expression was a little strange: "If it is explained in this way, it is easy to understand that the Tulungalia dynasty was named like this."
Fan Ning also nodded when he heard this.
It is equivalent to the named people claiming to be the "Holy Dynasty", and then their language becomes the "Holy Language".
"However, when we did more in-depth research later, it was a bit confusing..." Sheeran changed the topic at this time, "The word Tulungalia, in the Noahic language, has multiple meanings. Except for 'love',
It also has two other meanings."
"Oh? What else do you mean?"
Fan Ning was not surprised by this. In this kind of language that uses words as units, the phenomenon of polysemy is too common. He was just a little curious.
"Terror." "And giants." Sheeran said.
Fan Ning frowned deeply: "To be honest, I was discussing rhetoric and 'love' all the way, and when you mentioned these two words to me, I suddenly felt a little scared."
"Same feeling." The little girl nodded with great approval, "However, the latter two semantics are extremely rare, and they rarely appear in the documents of Noah's period."
"I can roughly understand 'horror'." Fan Ning said, "If it is an emotion that reflects a transcendent category, the difference between 'love' and 'horror' is not so clear-cut. Similar words can often be seen in the lyrics of many church music.
Parallel usage."
The same goes for the hidden knowledge I received when I was promoted: "... He has separated your name from His servants, and the spirit that praises one of you is a burning candle... All are terrible.
The one who is beloved, the one who is favored, the one who meditates, the one chosen by the Supreme Being, the one who receives secret transmissions..."
"But the other one..." Fan Ning's eyes flashed, "The giant giant, this seems to be an ancient creature that exists in legends. By the way, I thought of it -"
"Teacher (Dad)'s last symphony!" He and Xilan suddenly said in unison.
Teacher Anton's work was conceived as his next symphony. In fact, only one movement was basically completed before his death, and according to the plan, it was planned to be placed in the final movement.
As for the previous movement, it is just at the stage of discussing musical ideas with Fan Ning and Sheeran.
Sheeran opened the drawer, took out Professor Anton's notebook when he was alive, stood up, and came to the sofa to sit side by side with Fan Ning.
After taking it, Fan Ning turned to the manuscript score and spoke as if recalling or explaining: "In the only final movement that has been written, Teacher Anton conceived three main musical motives——"
"Human Motive, in the key of F minor, the first half of the melody is a horn-like third + fifth interval, and the second half detours and then jumps to a higher octave, showing a resistance effect, symbolizing heroes or humanity."
"The devil's motive, the tonality is vague, and the weird chromatic fragment appears in a triplet rhythm pattern, descending three times in a row, symbolizing fate or evil thoughts."
"The chant motive is in the key of D major, with a fourth interval as the core, a continuous downward progression, a square rhythm, and brilliant colors, symbolizing purification or divinity."
After Fan Ning explained the three musical images constructed by Teacher Anton in turn, he slowly said: "The first 'human motivation' here, according to the teacher's idea at the time, is a metaphor for the legendary ancient creature: the giant!"
