Chapter 50 The Call of the Ancients

Wu Zhongyuan's excitement aroused Wang Jize's curiosity, and hurried over, "What are you writing, show me."

"It's really not a love letter." Wu Zhongyuan handed the two pieces of paper to Wang Jize. Wang Jize's actions showed that he really hadn't peeked at them before, and such an honest person couldn't confuse him.

Wang Jize took the two pieces of paper and read them eagerly, but soon he found that he couldn't understand, "What the hell is this?"

"Some rubbings on ancient stone tablets." Wu Zhongyuan said casually.

"Oh." Wang Jize believed it, put the two pieces of paper back in a dispirited mood, and went back to his bed to fiddle with the tablet.

Wu Zhongyuan was very excited and eager, and even before the lights in the dormitory were turned off, he began to compare and organize. The first thing he did was to verify each other. Some of the texts he gave to Wang Xinran and Zhao Ying were repeated. If they are the same, it means that neither party has cheated or falsified.

Wu Zhongyuan was very satisfied with the results of the comparison, but he was also very worried. The reason for his satisfaction was that the translation results of the two sides were roughly similar for these words.The reason for worry is that there are many small discrepancies in the translation of the same text between the two parties. Such discrepancies are not due to one party’s deliberate intentions, but academic differences.

The ancient characters are different from the current characters. The number of ancient characters is relatively small, and the expression needs to be combined with the environment and social structure at that time, as well as many factors such as the relationship between each other. This situation is like the current "rolling". Said, supplemented by a harsh tone, represents anger.If you speak to the opposite sex, supplemented by a coquettish tone, it represents shyness and joy.

This feature of ancient texts makes it difficult to translate accurately. The direct consequence is that it is impossible to accurately interpret these words written by Wu Zhui, and these words written by Wu Zhui are crucial clues. Differences in understanding and understanding may result in half the effort, or even the opposite.

Fortunately, the words written by Wu Zhui are all in sentences. Some words can be interpreted comprehensively by linking the previous text or the previous sentence. This can reduce the interpretation error to a certain extent, but correspondingly, it will also increase the difficulty of interpretation and interpretation. time.

The translation results given by the two are all single and unordered words. If you want to interpret, you need to arrange and restore them in the order of the original text. The original text has more than 900 words, and each word needs to be selected one by one from more than 200 words. Come out, progress is very slow.

However, any progress at this time is an essential advancement. Half an hour later, the first sentence written by Wu Zhui was interpreted. It can only be roughly interpreted, and it cannot be very precise. It won't be long, and I also know that you can't understand the language of your hometown, so I can only write down the news and leave it for you to interpret it slowly later. '

There are more than 40 modern characters in this passage, but Wu Zhui’s original text has only a dozen characters. This is also the difference between ancient languages ​​and modern languages. At that time, the number of characters was small, and the meaning of each character was relatively general, which can be passed , can also be used generically.

Seeing that substantial progress had been made, Wu Zhongyuan was eager to continue sorting it out, but he held back. Both Wang Xinran and Zhao Ying knew that the words translated for him were what Wu Zhui said to him, and they also knew that there were his words hidden in these words. From the clues of the return, one can even guess that he must be impatiently sorting out and interpreting at this moment. What's more, one can even guess that he may not go to class tomorrow, or even if he does, he will look like he lacks sleep.

You can't let them guess what you want to do, you have to make them puzzled, otherwise they are likely to take further actions.

After taking pictures of Wang Xinran's two pieces of paper, Wu Zhongyuan pulled off the quilt and closed his eyes to sleep, and had to continue class the next day.

He went to the classroom late, deliberately late, because Wang Xinran and Zhao Ying were both there when he got to the classroom.

The two of them were indeed there when he went to the classroom, and they were still sitting there before. Seeing him coming in, Wang Xinran and Zhao Ying tilted their heads to look at him at the same time, to be more precise, to see the expression on his face.

Wu Zhongyuan glanced at Zhao Ying with friendly eyes, but when he looked at Wang Xinran, his eyes were not so friendly.

Both of them noticed the change in his eyes. Zhao Ying frowned and looked at Wang Xinran, while Wang Xinran looked at Wu Zhongyuan suspiciously.

Wu Zhongyuan sat down from his seat, took out the book, and then took out the two pieces of paper that Wang Xinran sent over last night and threw them to Wang Xinran.

Seeing Wu Zhongyuan's attitude was so bad, Wang Xinran was puzzled and dissatisfied, "What do you mean?"

"What do you mean?" Wu Zhongyuan's tone was very cold, "Who are the people above you? Why do you always like to be smart?"

Wang Xinran didn't understand, and his tone was no longer tough, "What's the matter?"

"I can tell if it's true or not." Wu Zhongyuan said with a blank expression.

Wang Xinran was stunned. Wu Zhongyuan's meaning was obvious. There was another problem with the translation result they gave. Since there was a problem before, she couldn't guarantee that the translation result given by her superior this time must be true.

After recovering, Wang Xinran asked in a low voice, "Did you make a mistake? There shouldn't be any problems this time. The words at that time couldn't be translated [-]%. Don't be suspicious."

"I wish I was Sophon Suspicious Neighbor." Wu Zhongyuan said casually.

"Don't worry, wait for me to confirm." Wang Xinran said.

Wu Zhongyuan did not respond.

"It's better to be a villain than a hypocrite." Zhao Ying sneered contemptuously.

How could Wang Xinran fail to hear that Zhao Ying was mocking her, she was much hotter than Zhao Ying, and immediately fought back, "Shut your dog mouth."

"Hmph." Zhao Ying tilted her head to the side and replied, "Bichi."

"You bastard." Wang Xinran stood up.

"Let them show some sincerity," Wu Zhongyuan said.

As soon as Wu Zhongyuan opened his mouth, the two stopped arguing. Wang Xinran sat back in his seat angrily, and Zhao Ying showed a disdainful sneer.

Afterwards, classes were held normally. Wu Zhongyuan did nothing but attend classes. When he encountered a class he was interested in, he would concentrate on listening to the lecture, and when he encountered a class he was not interested in, he would be in a daze.

However, no matter whether he was listening intently or in a daze, he always pretended to be in a daze. The purpose was naturally to confuse Wang Xinran and Zhao Ying, including his actions before class, also to confuse the two of them, making them mistakenly think that his translation Temporarily unavailable.

After class in the evening, he didn't go back to the dormitory immediately, but went out to buy some fruit. In fact, he wanted to go back to the dormitory immediately, but he couldn't let the two of them see his eagerness.

After returning to the dormitory, I continued to tidy up immediately, with no distractions, concentrated attention, and the speed of progress was very fast. The translations appeared one by one, roughly meaning "Your father is our great Wu, and your mother is a nobleman of the Li nationality. Because of you, we met When the great disaster happened, all the Wu members of the clan had died in battle. You are the only one who has the blood of Wu. You are the last hope. We think that you can also enter the palace of the clan, receive the guidance of the ancestors, and obtain the blood of the clan. If you cannot enter our palace, our remaining wizards and warriors will take you to find the lost temple and help you meet the noble dragon, hoping that you can gain the power of the dragon. '

After translating the contents of the first three pages, it was already past two o'clock in the morning. Wu Zhongyuan paused the translation and closed his eyes to sort out the clues in his mind.

Although the translation was not very smooth, the general meaning came out. Some of the content was roughly consistent with what he had guessed before, but there were some things he hadn't thought of before. His father was the king of a tribe, and Wu should mean king. Da Wu is the king.Her mother is a great nobleman of the Li nationality. The Li nationality should be from the Chiyou clan. The great nobleman is a specific title in ancient times. It may be a princess or a saint.

The combination of father and mother should not be recognized by the two tribes. The reason why the father's tribe suffered disasters was also because of him. Besides him, there should be some Xiao Wu, that is, Xiao Wang, in the father's tribe. It was his uncle or maybe his brother, all of them died in the battle.

Now he is the only person who is likely to enter the palace of his family. The reason why he is said to be possible is because he is a descendant of the mixed blood of the two races, not as pure as other Wu bloodlines.

If he can enter the clan's palace, he can get the help and guidance of the dead ancestors of the clan, and obtain the great power exclusive to the clan.If he couldn't enter the clan's palace because his blood was not pure enough, the remaining wizards and warriors in the clan would lead him to find the temple where no one knew where, and help him meet the dragon and gain the power of the dragon.In ancient texts, Yamato God is the same word. As for how to understand it, you need a coherent sentence.

The next day, I went to class as usual, ate as usual, and went to self-study as usual, and went back at night to continue translating.

There are no punctuation marks between ancient characters. Wu Zhui will use a larger gap to separate small paragraphs, and the large paragraphs will be divided into pages. At nine o’clock in the evening, Wu Zhongyuan translated the contents of the fourth and fifth pages. Roughly it means 'We've been looking for you, but we didn't know where you were, didn't expect that I could find you, I'm happy, but unfortunately I'm going to die soon, I can't take you to find and wake up the wizard, I put the wizard in his sleep Write down the place and the method of awakening him, you go find him, and he will help you go back...'
