Chapter 42 Deciphering Ancient Books

The old curator was so excited that his saliva flew out.

Jiang Wan was taken aback by him, and asked in bewilderment, "Don't you understand?"

"The content on this is all a combination of patterns and text, and the text is only a few words, and the meaning of the pattern is even more unclear. It has not been deciphered yet!"

The old curator confirmed to Jiang Wan again: "Do you really recognize it? You didn't just talk nonsense, did you?"

In an era when the Internet is full of all kinds of information, even the very old curator has seen Jiang Wan on short video software, so he knows that Jiang Wan is no ordinary child.

Strong expectations arose in the old curator's heart, and his intuition told him that this child would surprise him!

Jiang Wan was really surprised. She thought that the old curator must understand the contents of the book so he paid so much attention to it. It turned out that they didn't know anything, but they still regarded it as a treasure?

Jiang Wan didn't understand, and in her opinion, this book was not important.

"It's just a divination record," she said.

"Records of divination?" The old curator's face said "Tell me more."

Jiang Wan looked at Liu Guiyan. Liu Guiyan did not stop filming. She could only point to the page in the old curator's hand and started from the first character: "This represents the date, which corresponds to the twelve days of dry weather." , this symbol is Guimao year, and then..."

Jiang Wan drew a small circle on the ground with her finger, "This is the first month, and the first month is also called the first month, so the moon is used to represent the full moon, and the waning moon behind it represents other months in turn."

"Write here! Write here!" The old curator took out a notebook and a ballpoint pen from his breast pocket and asked Jiang Wan to write it again.

While Jiang Wan was writing and drawing, he continued: "The date is the reason, but there is no place. Probably because it happened in this city, so I omitted it. Did you just say that this was discovered together with the regional and county records?"

"That's right, that's right, we've also analyzed and researched it, and guessed what kind of secret letter this book might be, because you said above that there are twelve signs indicating the month, so we had a very close guess before." The old curator could see it with naked eyes. Excited, "Unfortunately, except for the date, most of the content still doesn't make sense."

"It's normal to not understand," Jiang Wan smiled, with a gentle expression, like an elder teaching a novice child—although her roles should be opposite to those of the old curator.

"...Divination is a very laborious and mental task, so after the divination, try to write down the results as simply as possible. The more omitted, the better, as long as you can understand it."

Jiang Wan didn't read the county chronicles they were talking about, but she guessed: "The official divination records should have another document. This note is not official. Look here, here, here, there are obvious typos. Black, there are also half-written dates."

Jiang Wan can completely understand that when she used to do divination, the formal documents were as neat as the scribbling notes.

"The results of divination are often fleeting. It is enough to draw the hexagram results as quickly as possible. There is really no need to write the corresponding explanation twice."

When Jiang Wan was not Da Po, the old Da Po would never allow her to be lazy like this, so she had to write it twice every time. Recalling the memory of her wrist being sore and not wanting to write but having to write, Jiang Wan I had lingering fears at night.

"So that's how it is." The old curator suddenly realized, and then frowned again: "It's a pity that no official record was found, otherwise we would have known what the divination was about at that time."

"From the weather, to banquets, losing things, looking for people, lawsuits..." Jiang Wan glanced at them briefly, "It's all very complicated. This wizard really likes divination."

Xiao Zhuang was fascinated by what he heard, and couldn't help asking: "Didn't the ancient wizards just do divination for everything big and small?"

Jiang Wan shook her head, "That's too tiring, and I think the hexagrams drawn in it are all divination with tortoise shells, so this wizard has at least killed a lot of tortoises."

"Ah..." Xiao Zhuang suddenly couldn't accept it, "Why is this so?"

"Can you tell me more about the other things! How did you figure out the reason and the divination?" The old curator looked at Jiang Wan, as if he was looking at a big baby: "Could it be that you know how to do divination?!"

Jiang Wan didn't answer him directly, but shifted her gaze and said, "For quick record, the reasons are divided into ten major categories, and each major category has five to seven subcategories..."

Jiang Wan suddenly paused, because she found that the wizard's recording method was too similar to the recording method passed down by Da Po from generation to generation!

Is it a coincidence?Or is there any connection between the two worlds?

Could it be... isn't she the first Dapo who came to this world from the [-] mountains in Mang Valley? !

"There are so many!" The old curator's emotion pulled Jiang Wan's remote thoughts back, "This is no less than a new set of written recording tools!"

Jiang Wan suddenly hesitated. This is different from recognizing rare species. How to explain why she understands this set of writing tools is another problem.

But the words she said and the water she poured out, she suddenly said she didn’t know in the middle of the interpretation, seemed more cover-up, right?

With all kinds of thoughts in his mind, but nothing showed on the surface, Jiang Wan quickly wrote the meaning of various characters on the paper.

"The hexagrams are quite complicated and can't be explained in a few words. The rest are pretty much the same. You can try to interpret them." Jiang Wan casually pulled out a page.

The old curator was nervously holding the "password table" for comparison. Before he could read the first line, Fang Yuqian, who had been taciturn and stood beside Jiang Wan like a background board that could not be ignored, suddenly spoke.

"Renyin year, April 23, reason: looking for something."

He spoke so little that everyone was stunned for two seconds before they reacted.

The old curator hurriedly "corrected the answer". He checked for a while, but Jiang Wan knew that he was right as soon as Fang Yuqian finished speaking.

Thinking of his special "illness", Jiang Wan casually pulled out another page and tested him: "What about this one?"

Fang Yuqian: "Renyin year, May [-]th, reason: praying for rain."

The old curator was shocked. Could this child also recognize this set of words?

"Have you memorized it all?" Jiang Wan felt the novelty, and picked up another page with great interest, "This."

Fang Yuqian: "Ugly..."

Just as he said a word, a voice forcibly interrupted him: "March [-]rd in the Year of the Ugly Ox! Reason: travel far!"

After all, Jiang Ao is also a college champion, but he just memorizes the meaning of characters. How can he lose to a child!

"Wanwan, the second brother also memorized it."

Jiang Wan held the court and applauded him: "Second brother is great! So awesome!"

Fang Yuqian's mouth slowly sank: "..."

Jiang Ao pulled back a victory, provocatively with a smile on his face: "Shall we compare?"

Fang Yuqian directly picked up a new piece of paper and started translating. Jiang Ao was not to be outdone. The two of them almost said the correct answer immediately after just one glance.

"Eh? Wait, you guys... are too fast!" The old curator was overwhelmed.

Jiang Wan simply squatted in front of them, holding her chin with her hands to watch their PK, her thoughts drifting away again unconsciously.

Not far away, Li Jiazuo was climbing a tree, Liu Tianxiang was persuading him under the tree, and He Yufu was watching the fun while playing with leaves.
