Xiao Xue Lian Jing Tan Mo was about to transform into human form when she was plucked by someone, reincarnating as the beloved youngest daughter of the Tan family. Until she discovered that she had...
Moreover, although the students are proud, they are also somewhat stubborn like scholars.
As long as it is beneficial to research, they will not hesitate.
Professor Gu nodded and pointed to the information in Tan Mo's hand. "It's all here. Tan Mo completed it over the weekend. I felt comfortable bringing her here because she passed my assessment. Otherwise, I'm worried you wouldn't be convinced."
"So fast?" a boy asked in surprise, "You finished it all in two days?"
"Actually, the part Professor Gu gave me is not much. Although it is so thick, it is because of the original text plus my translation, which makes it look thick." Tan Mo explained.
She really thought it was okay.
Professor Gu took the information from Tan Mo and handed it to the boy who had spoken earlier. "You are the team leader for the Liye Qin Bamboo Slips section. Come and see if there are any problems."
Professor Gu has checked it out and confirmed that there is no problem.
The boy took it and said, "I'll go check it out right away."
After saying that, he ran away with the information.
"Yuemu, take Tan Mo to meet his seniors." Professor Gu said.
"Tan Mo, come with me." Wang Yuemu led Tan Mo to the senior brother who had just taken the materials. "This senior brother is now in charge of organizing and translating the Liye Qin Bamboo Slips. The Liye Qin Bamboo Slips are not literary works, but archives of Qianling County, Dongting Commandery during the Qin Dynasty. They include bamboo slips for the God of Agriculture, bamboo slips for place names and distances, and household registration slips. You must be familiar with all of these. However, they are not suitable for publishing in a book. We will organize and translate them so that they can be used in textbooks in the future, or simply stored in archives. In any case, they will definitely be useful."
"This senior brother is the team leader, Ying Siyuan." Wang Yuemu introduced.
Ying Siyuan smiled and said, "Tan Mo, welcome to join us."
"Oh, so enthusiastic?" Wang Yuemu said with a smile.
"We haven't started translating Tan Mo's part yet, but I just read the original text and plan to get a feel for the content before officially translating it," Ying Siyuan said with a smile. "So I have a general idea of the translation difficulties. Tan Mo's translation is very good, and she put a lot of effort into it."
Ying Siyuan handed the information to Wang Yuemu. "Add to that her efficiency, and she actually finished it in just two days over the weekend. I couldn't ask for more to have such a great person join us."
"We haven't decided which group Tan Mo will join yet." Wang Yuemu laughed and hit him, "Don't be too happy."
For efficiency, they were divided into several groups to work on the project in parallel. Some groups were responsible for less complex tasks and completed them faster, so they would move on to the next task.
"Come on, I'll take you to meet people." Wang Yuemu took Tan Mo and introduced them to people one by one.
Finally, he walked over to the girl who had spoken first and said, "This is the group I'm in charge of. This is your Senior Sister Chen Shihua, Pastor Brother Ling Zi, Senior Brother Shen Hongshan, and Senior Sister Pu Xinyan."
"These are characters from the Warring States Period." Chen Shihua and others happened to be standing next to the whiteboard, and Tan Mo saw them at a glance.
I was far away and didn't have time to look.
Now it was right in front of him, and Tan Mo recognized it at a glance.
"You understand this?" Chen Shihua asked in surprise.
The fact that Tan Mo was able to translate the original text of the Liyie Qin Bamboo Slips shows that she understands ancient Li script.
They all heard what Ying Siyuan said just now.
But unexpectedly, Tan Mo even understood the characters of the Warring States Period!
"We don't know much about the Warring States characters. They are too scattered and difficult to recognize." Shen Hongshan shook his head.
Ling Zimu looked at the words on the whiteboard, feeling dizzy and having a headache. "From the end of the Spring and Autumn Period to before the unification of Qin, the characters used were all from the Warring States Period. They inherited the bronze inscriptions of the Spring and Autumn Period and preceded the seal and clerical scripts of the Qin and Han Dynasties."
"The writing system during the Warring States Period was not unified. It was not until the First Emperor of Qin that writing became standardized, with the same writing system, the same wheel gauge, and the same weights and measures," Ling Zimu said. "Before that, the writing system during the Warring States Period was divided into the writing system of the Six Kingdoms and the writing system of the Qin Dynasty. The writing system of the Six Kingdoms was further divided into the writing system of Qi, the writing system of Yan, the writing system of Jin, and the writing system of Chu."
Ling Zimu rubbed his brows and said, "Just talking about this gives me a headache. It's really too scattered."
"Yes, when I was sorting it out, I felt more and more that it was really great that Qin Shihuang was able to unify the characters," Pu Xinyan exclaimed.
Wang Yuemu smiled and said, "Your Senior Brother Ling likes popular science. It's an old habit. No matter whether others know it or not, he always has to popularize it."
Ling Zimu was not angry after hearing this.
In addition to his love for science popularization, he has a very good temper. He laughs when being talked about, and looks a little silly.
"Your senior brother Ling has a very good temper. Besides his love for popular science, it's okay to tease him in any way you like, as long as it's not excessive." Pu Xinyan said to Tan Mo with a smile.
"Tan Mo, since you can speak the characters of the Warring States Period, you should have some understanding of this." Wang Yuemu asked her.
However, Wang Yuemu thought that it was already amazing that Tan Mo could master the ancient official script. The characters of the Warring States period were too complicated, and it was remarkable that Tan Mo could know them.
She didn't expect Tan Mo to have such a good grasp of the Warring States characters.
“I haven’t mastered all of them, and there are some that I don’t recognize.” When the little snow lotus spirit awakened its intelligence, the Warring States period had long passed.
So everything she knew was taught by her master.
Master knows everything!
It’s just that the master didn’t teach her everything, and she was too lazy to learn.
So I learned even less.
"But I do recognize these words." Tan Mo pointed to one of the pieces of paper. "This is the word 'zhi', the 'zhi' in 'shenzhi'."
Tan Mo was afraid that they would misunderstand it as the homophone "Qi", so he picked up a whiteboard marker and wrote it next to the paper.
"This one that looks like the sky is the character for li, which belongs to the writing system of Zhongshan Kingdom." Tan Mo also wrote it down next to it.
"The characters of Zhongshan Kingdom belong to the Jin Dynasty." Pu Xinyan said, and picked up the "Warring States Characters" to check.
"This is indeed the word 'li'." Pu Xinyan quickly wrote it down.
At the same time, Shen Hongshan was also checking: "Yes, it's a word!"
"Tan Mo, you actually recognized him directly!" How shocking!
They can't remember these words.
The same word is written differently in each country.
Some are luckier, but the difference is not that big.
But some are very different.
"This character 隶 is so weird. The Chu-style characters don't change much with this character 隶, but the Jin-style characters and this character don't seem to have anything to do with each other at all." Shen Hongshan had a headache. This damn thing looks too much like the sky!
"Tan Mo, how many can you recognize?" Chen Shihua's eyes lit up.
Tan Mo's scalp tingled when he saw her. He pointed at the whiteboard and said, "I can recognize three of them here."
"I can't recognize the remaining two either, so I have to check them," said Tan Mo.
"This is already very good!" said Chen Shihua.
"Senior Sister Wang." Chen Shihua looked at Wang Yuemu with a sharp gaze, "A talent like Tan Mo must join our team!"
