Chapter 872 'Exploration and Discovery'

Since Cangjie coined characters and recited compositions, people in the world have always wanted to write something with words. Writing is one of the most magical things created by humans in ancient times. It represents great significance and is a part of history.

Time is the accumulation of culture, and it is also evidence of the existence of civilization itself.

Shuhai met Yuzai that year and asked about some geographical knowledge, so

 Look at Manli!

 To put it simply, it was like this, except that when she left, she gave him a globe and a book title, so "Man and Nature" became a geographical survey reality show that no one watched in ancient times.

“In the land of Nanqiu, there are people from Chifang, and there are gods and men living there. It is called Zai”

Wen Ming read what was written on the bamboo slips, and Shuhai directly wrote the name of Yu Zai and some of his original deeds on some bamboo slips, compiled it into a letter, and named it "Preface"

"This is why I started writing these things! As the saying goes, the preface of the Bamboo Slips in Huazhong is mostly used to explain the main purpose of this work or the purpose of writing it. It can also be understood as the essence of what I wrote, representing

My original intention and source of motivation for writing the book are filled with my central ideas."

 Shuhai: "Ababa Aba (omitting ten thousand words)."

Wen Ming and others took those bamboo slips and looked at them for a while. Some of them had recorded some information about the mountain system in the Dongshan area. In the past, some people divided the mountains in the five directions of southeast, northwest, and middle. That was probably recorded by the Fang family of the Human Emperor.

But there were no words in that era, only some extremely primitive abstract simple drawings, so the names of various mountain systems were passed down orally in Dahe Jiubu.

After the death of the Fang clan of the Human Emperor, the Titing clan seized the throne, and the world was in turmoil. War broke out again. The nine parts of Dahe fell apart and began to migrate to various parts of the world!

 So, people cannot eat too much. Some people want to do something if they are too full.

Shu Hai said that times have changed, and the data on Wufang Mountains should undergo a major update. Many things are very different from thousands of years ago. The high banks are mausoleums and the deep banks are valleys, not to mention some man-made damage, such as

It is said that during Liang's heyday, he engaged in immoral behavior such as moving mountains and stealing fishing boats.

"If you want to control floods, you have to travel to countless mountains and fields in the world. You have to sort out the local tribes, customs, water veins, geology, exotic animals, and spiritual herbs. I think that if people travel to so many places,

It should be more than just a taste of which animals are delicious and which are not.”

“So I help you and you join me”

Shuhai has an ambition, and Mr. Hanman is also compiling a geography book. Whoever can collect the most geographical knowledge will be the authority on geological research in this era. This is the most noble pursuit of a geologist.

“Do you want to create a classic that covers all geographical environments for the people of the world?”

 “Of course! Don’t you think this pursuit is great!”

Wen Ming thought about it for a while and discussed it with a few friends around him:

 “I seem to have heard of this behavior somewhere.”

 “It’s Baize, it’s Baize Benze!”

 “Humanoid Shiraize, right?”

 In the past, there was a crazy beast who knew the names of more than 10,000 kinds of creatures in the world. It was called Bai Ze. It first appeared in "Baopuzi" rather than "Shan Hai Jing".

The specific location where Bai Ze lives is actually not known, and it does not seem to have a fixed habitat.

Legend has it that encountering it can turn misfortune into good fortune. It is said to know astronomy and geography from above, and trivial matters from below; through the past, it can tell the future, and it can also speak human language. Once when the Yellow Emperor was traveling in the East China Sea, he met a man who was also out to collect information.

Bai Ze, so Bai Ze procured an illustrated book of ghosts and gods, the "Baize Demon Map", which recorded the names, appearances, and expulsion methods of 11,520 kinds of monsters.

 Later, Huangdi also wrote an "Essay on Warding Off Evil" as a reply. I don't know what the content was, but it was most likely a reminder to update.

Wen Ming muttered: "Do you also want to be reminded by Huang Di?"

 Shuhai: "?"

In short, Shuhai said that getting back to the point, a dragon-horned goat can produce such a complete collection. Everyone is a writer. I can write if I can. If I write now, I will be on the cusp of the storm. I will definitely be the one in the future.

It should be regarded as a masterpiece handed down from generation to generation.

 “Man and Nature, National Geographic won’t work, I don’t think it will work!”

At this time, Yi Jian, who was in charge of recording, spoke up. He was firmly opposed to co-writing a book with others. He seriously pointed out that Shu Hai was nothing more than what they experienced in the process of water control. After all, you don't know how to control water!

“Although I can’t control the water, I can go to the place where the water disappears and record it!”

“Okay, then we will directly redirect the water flow, dig mountains and break embankments, so that when future generations see your book, they will say that everything written in this book is full of errors!”

Shuhai: "???"

 You must be seriously ill!

 But Wen Ming thought about it.

Shuhai's proposal is actually beneficial to people like him. It is necessary to record the mountain conditions, geological environment, and water vein trends. In the process of water control, a more specific "hydrological illustration" can be compiled.

Focusing on rivers rather than mountains distinguishes it from the content of the other two versions of the geography book.

Moreover, I will definitely go to the west to see the Xingxiu Sea in the future. Then Mr. Hanman’s book will come in handy, and in the mountains and fields of the central region, Shuhai’s book will also be needed.

“Okay, let’s set up a geological factory, a geological factory!”

Wen Ming shouted loudly, his eyes shining with light.

At the beginning, he wanted to follow the example of the South and open a factory in his hometown, but he didn't know what kind of factory to open. Moreover, because the superiors issued an order to control the water, and he studied with the old man Tai Ni for a long time, the matter was delayed.

At this moment, Wen Ming suddenly thought that he could gather these enthusiasts who were interested in exploring geology and set up a factory of his own!

This factory specializes in popularizing science about various geography, hydrology, exotic animals and customs in the world!

 This is a professional team!

“Yi Jian, we also need to have our own copy of the book. Since the first two copies were both named by Brother Zai, I will name this one. Let me think about it and call it "

Wen Ming was stuck, and after thinking for a moment, the friends around him started talking:

Nüjiao: "How about naming it after Emperor Shaohao's poem "Nine Abyss"? They are all about water control."

Boyi: "No, this is repeated. I think since the area under management is south of the river, it should be simpler and called "Henan"."

 Yijian: "No, if it's more grand, it should be called "Wuzang Shan Jing"!"

Zang Tongzang is the prototype word for Zang in ancient times. It originally meant a slave who had one eye blinded, and it was extended to mean "goodness" and "stability". Later, it was used by others under the guise of "Zang" to mean storage.

 So "Five Zangs" means that the five mountains and rivers are all managed and stabilized, so that they are like slaves and dare not resist.

None of them could convince each other, so Wen Ming spoke:

“What you said is not grand enough, and the style is too high, so it is not suitable for dissemination. Brother Zai said that this kind of book must be easy to understand. Starting from the name, I think it is called”

"discovery!"
