Chapter Two Hundred and Seventieth: One Word Daughter

Li Wushan and Liu Weiming were shocked.

The matching result did come out, but…

It was not deciphered at all.

Oracle oracle bone inscriptions, also known as “qiwen” and “oracle bone inscriptions”, its discovery is very accidental.

During the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, there was a Guozijian Jijiu called Wang Yirong. He was given a prescription, and he needed to use medicinal materials called “Dragon Bone” blindly.

Wang Yirong felt that the name was strange, so he sent someone to the drugstore to buy back the unsmashed “keel”, and unexpectedly found that there were many strange patterns on it.

Then he began to compare the literature and research repeatedly, and his lifelong discoveries were included in “Iron Cloud Hidden Turtle”.

This is also Oracle’s first monograph.

History passes by, the vicissitudes of life.

Generations of scholars continue to pass on oracle bone inscriptions, and let this ancient knowledge continue to produce new results.

But even so, the road to Oracle’s deciphering is still extremely long.

It is known that more than 4,300 characters have been collected in the Oracle Bone-Bone Chinese Dictionary, but only more than 1,300 deciphered characters have reached a consensus, not even half of them.

Looking at the results on the computer, Li Wushan and Liu Weiming stared at them.

“what’s the situation?”

“Check if these words are included in the dictionary.”

Li Wushan gave an order.

Liu Weiming proficiently operated in front of the computer.

After a while, his face changed again and again.

“No……”

He said dullly: “This may be the inscriptions on oracle bones that have never been discovered before.”

Hearing this, Li Wushan immediately became calm, and stood up suddenly.

The number of oracle bones discovered so far is estimated to be between 130,000 and 150,000, and there are more than 4,300 oracle bone fonts…

The discovery of new oracle bones was three years ago!

And it’s still in the ruins.

But right now, at a private appraisal exchange meeting in Thousand Baidu, new oracle bones were discovered unexpectedly.

Isn’t this a fantasy?

“Lin Chen, ask this treasured friend where he got the things.”

Lin Chen didn’t ask at all, Tang Ding told him about the situation just now.

“Don’t ask, this treasurer won’t say anything.”

“Don’t say it?”

The two old men looked at each other and instantly understood what they meant.

This treasure friend has a problem. It is estimated that he has come to slap Qian Baidu in the face.

“That, Lin Chen.”

Liu Weiming put his face in front of the camera, “These words are not included in the dictionary at all, but if you know the usefulness of this tortoise shell, you might be able to push it out.”

“You, do you know?”

As soon as the words fell, a full screen of question marks floated in the live broadcast room, and all the treasurers were dumbfounded.

What’s happening here?

Liu Weiming, an expert Liu Da, actually asked Lin Chen for advice?

This is simply incredible.

“Of course I know.”

Lin Chen smiled, “Not only do I know where the tortoiseshell comes from, but I also know what the words above mean.”

“what?”

“real or fake?”

Both Li Wushan and Liu Weiming’s faces changed wildly and stood up excitedly.

You know, the road to Oracle’s deciphering is extremely long and difficult.

One is that the number of characters found is small, and the other is the problem of chronology.

Even in order to encourage Oracle’s deciphering work, relevant associations once issued a reward announcement.

As long as the uninterpreted oracle bone inscriptions are deciphered and approved by the expert committee, they will be awarded 100,000 yuan for one word!

It is not an exaggeration to say that this is a real one-word daughter.

It stands to reason that under the reward, there must be a brave man, but even so…

The deciphering work is still deadlocked, and no progress has been made.

But now Lin Chen actually said that he knew the words above. If this were to be spread out, I am afraid the entire antique world would be shaken!

Lin Chen didn’t sell Guanzi, but looked at Xu Fei with interest.

“This treasured friend, if you want to take this thing and smash my thousands of Baidu places, it’s a wrong idea.”

Xu Fei’s face changed.

“What is it? I don’t understand what you said.”

“I just heard that a store opened a private appraisal exchange meeting, so I came to have a look.”

This matter can’t be admitted, even if he is killed.

“Ha ha.”

Lin Chen didn’t dismantle him either, and picked up this tortoise shell.

“This tortoise shell plastron, you can look at it. There are many cracks on it, dividing the whole tortoise shell into different areas.”

As he said, he pointed his finger.

“There is indeed a crack.”

“This should be broken…”

“I think it’s the same. This thing seems to be a little old.”

Lin Chenwei smiled as he watched the barrage from the treasure friends.

“It was not a fall, it was made like this on purpose.”

“As for the production process, it is very simple, first grinding, then drilling.”

“Drilling is to make the tortoise shell cracks. After the cracks are formed, the hardwood is ignited and the groove on the back of the shell is burned with fire.”

“The tortoise shell at the groove is already very thin, and it will swell and crack when exposed to high temperatures, resulting in a lot of long streaks.”



Hearing this explanation, the treasure friends couldn’t understand.

A good piece of tortoise shell is polished and burnt. With such a great effort, what is it going to do?

Liu Weiming frowned and seemed to think of something, but he was a little uncertain.

Lin Chen smiled and pointed to the pattern on it, “This kind of pattern is called Zhaowen. In short, it is used for divination.”

“Divination? Mom, why is it still related to metaphysics?”

“6666! The more you listen, the more interesting!”

Friends of the treasure are all coming in interest.

Liu Weiming has verified his guess by Lin Chen’s words.

“Dear friends may have misunderstood.”

“This kind of divination does not mean predicting good or bad luck and predicting the future.”

“Actually, he is just a multiple-choice question.”

“You can look at these lines and divide the tortoise shell into different areas, and each area is inscribed with one or two oracle bone inscriptions.”

“Simply speaking, it’s like playing a turntable. The area where the pointer stops represents a choice.”

It’s worthy of being a big expert, and it will definitely pass.

Lin Chen nodded in agreement, “Lao Liu was right.”

“Don’t think too deeply about this thing, it’s actually a gambling game.”

“For example, if you switch to porridge, then drink porridge today, and switch to meat, then eat meat.”

“It’s that simple.”

“Of course, the ancients were not so boring. They generally used this method to choose which sacrificial method should be used to pay homage to the ancestors of the gods.”

Hearing this, the treasurers suddenly realized.

It turns out that this turtle shell is just an auxiliary tool.

“You, how can you be sure that what you just said is true?”

Xu Fei listened quietly, and his face turned pale.

When he came, Lai did not tell him what was going on.

So he didn’t know.

But what Lin Chen said was justified and well-founded.

“How to be sure?”

Lin Chen jokingly smiled, and pointed to the phone screen.

“Liu Weiming is here, isn’t his words the best evidence?”
