Chapter 303 Restart-28┃ There is a sky outside the sky, and a world outside the world?
"The writing date of "Shan Hai Jing" cannot be tested, but this book has already been mentioned in "Historical Records". There is a saying that it was written by Chu or Bashu people from the middle and late Warring States period to the early and middle Han Dynasty. Earlier, it was made by Yu or Boyi." Shao Ling said, "In the Song Dynasty, the study of gold and stone rose and the retro style prevailed. There were many artifacts made in antiques or copycats. So I mean, we may be able to learn from them. It is possible to delineate the origin of the whole thing, at least from the Warring States Period to the end of the Qing Dynasty, but we may be able to focus on the Warring States, the Han Dynasty, and the Song Dynasty."
"The analysis is reasonable," Ke Xun said, "but I still can't explain why the inexplicable power generated during that period wanted to get the "Shan Hai Jing" on our bones. This is to let us help pass this strange book to the world. Go down?"
Everyone: "..."
"I don't see it like this," Shao Ling said. "In the next few days, let's seize the time to check historical materials related to the "Shan Hai Jing" and the bizarre events that occurred during the Warring States, Han Dynasty and Song Dynasties-although possible There is little hope of finding clues, but I always have to try."
Everyone had no objections. They said goodbye to grandma, and they went to the hotel where they were staying, and rushed to check online at all times.
The entry time of the next painting is just in time for the first day of the new year. There are still a few days before that day. After discussing it, everyone decided not to return to their respective cities, so as not to waste time. On the way, I simply flew directly to Ke Xun's house, lived there two or three days before entering the painting, and then flew to K City, where the next art museum is located, first stepped on the spot, prepared all the information, and then entered the painting on time.
Of course, it would be great if we could crack the behind-the-scenes of the entire painting incident before this, and terminate this terrible incident in time.
The plane to Z city took off in the afternoon. When everyone arrived in Z city, it was 7 or 8 in the evening. Ke Xun took them to the restaurant for dinner, and then sent the girls to the hotel booked by Ke Xun. The next group of men went to the homes of Ke Xun and Mu Yiran mightily.
Shao Ling Zhu Haowen brought their own laptops. Luo Ling’s laptop was bought before boarding the plane. Mu Yiran gave his laptop to Qin Ci, and Ke Xun used his computer. Several people started to use various channels. Collected information about "Shan Hai Jing" and bizarre events in the Warring States, Han Dynasty, and Song Dynasties.
Mu Yiran assisted Wei Dong to draw the bone photo taken on the phone on paper.
Wei Dong continued to paint until midnight, and finally finished the painting. Everyone temporarily stopped their work and came together to watch.
"Now that I see these pictures on the bones directly, I can be more sure that the style of these pictures is absolutely different from the ancient version of the "Shanhai Jingtu" circulating on the market," Shao Ling said, "the ancient pictures we can see now It is a picture book circulated in the Ming and Qing dynasties. Earlier, some painters Zhang Sengyou from the Southern Dynasties and Shu Ya from the Song Dynasty drew the 10-volume "Shanhaijing Tu". Unfortunately, neither of the two painted versions could pass down.
"And if you go back further, it should be the oldest version of the "Shan Hai Jing Tu". Lu Xun once pointed out in the "A Brief History of Chinese Novels" that the "Shan Hai Jing" is the ancient witch book, and the witch book is The book of prayers used by wizards, so its author is witch. This version of "Shanhai Jingtu" written by witch should be the original and earliest version, but it has long been lost.
"Look at the style of these pictures on our bones. Compared with the lines of the Ming and Qing editions, they are simpler and more austere. They also have a very profound sense of mystery because of the extremely'simple'. So I think we The pattern on the bones should be dated earlier, at least it must be the version from the Southern Liang or Song Dynasty, or even...the original version."
"What does it mean to pray?" Ke Xun asked.
"Literally it means praying and resolving disasters. It belongs to a Taoist magic," Shao Ling said. "The content of prayer includes praying for sunshine, praying for rain, locusts, curing diseases, eliminating pests, etc. The content of disasters includes resolving Fires, floods, droughts, wind disasters, earthquakes, fleeting disadvantages, etc."
"Wait..." Wei Dong said, "Aren't the "Shan Hai Jing" all talking about mountains, rivers and rivers, rare and exotic animals, and there are Taoist spells in it?"
"It is more appropriate to say that it is not so much Taoist magic as it is witchcraft." Shao Ling said, "A considerable part of the "Shan Hai Jing" is said to be based on ancient wizards who worship ancestors, call souls, send souls, and reach heaven and earth. Written in witch pictures or witch words used in rituals such as sacrifices.
"The original version of "The Book of Mountains and Seas" was actually just a map, and no words appeared at that time, and the witchcraft was only passed down orally.
"Later text versions were all transformed into text descriptions based on graphs, just like sentences such as'Fake a fish with each hand,' all describing the content of the graph."
"I always thought that "Shan Hai Jing" first had the text, and later generations gave it to the picture." Ke Xun had a new posture expression on his face, "It turned out that there was a picture first, so the original version If it is the real genuine copy, that is to say, "Shan Hai Jing" should actually be...a painting?"
The three words "a painting" are as straight as a divine enlightenment, so that everyone will be excited.
Just now I just analyzed the origin and content of "Shan Hai Jing", and everyone didn't think about it for a while. Now listening to Ke Xun's words, the thinking in front of me seems to have been broadened suddenly.
"So is the "Shan Hai Jing Tu" the source of the entire painting incident?" Zhu Haowen looked at the drawings, "If it is also a painting, then are all the landscapes, beasts, and spirits recorded in it all... …"
"It's all the scenes of the world in the painting expanded by the painting "Shan Hai Jing Tu"?" Qin Ci took his words, and the two looked at each other and saw the indescribable emotions in each other's eyes.
Luo Ling shivered firmly, and squeezed to Ke Xun's side.
"A painting that appeared in the ancient times can expand the world in the painting. The world in this painting has about 40 strange countries, more than 500 mountains, more than 300 waterways, and more than 400 Spiritual monsters, it also includes geography, astronomy, meteorology, plants, animals, geology, ocean, minerals, properties, witchcraft, religion, medicine, folklore, economy... and even science, philosophy and anthropology. And organizational structure," Shao Ling raised his eyes to look at everyone, with the same unspeakable emotions as Qin Ci Zhu Haowen, "This is simply... it's just like another big world like the world we live in now. Unlike any painting we have entered before, it has a larger volume and a more magnificent and rigorous world view. It has a logical and rigorous coordinate axis. Whether viewed horizontally or vertically, it is mature and perfect. The world it sets is almost endless and endless."
"In other words, it is like another universe in polycosmism," Zhu Haowen said. "The frame, or the scroll, is the door to this other universe."
"I have a chilling thought." Ke Xun said.
"You said, the world we live in or the world in the book "Shan Hai Jing", which one is true?"
Ke Xun's words made everyone gasp in their minds.
"If the coordinates of all art museums are linked together as a signature, does it mean that the world we live in is actually... a painting?" Ke Xun didn't mean to take care of everyone's fearful emotions, and licked Some dry lips continue to throw a guess bomb on everyone’s nerves that people don’t want to face directly, "If our world is a painting, then what are we? The'real' outside of this painting What is the world like?
"What is the ‘human’ that exists in that ‘real world’ and created us?
"We have always thought that we are the spirit of all things, the top of the biological chain, and the master of the world, but in fact, maybe we are just a bunch of... a bunch of symbols created by the real'spirit of all things'?
"Then follow the destiny and life trajectory they set for us, from birth to death, no matter how hard you struggle and think, you will always be in their routines, always on this track, and you will never be able to derail and escape this. Dimension..."
Luo Ling's eyes were red, but it was not because of fear, but an inexplicable sorrow that rose from his heart and swept his whole body.
——It turns out that we are just a bunch of symbols.
In that "real world", we are not even the lowest creatures...
Our joys, angers and sorrows, our memories and longings, all of us who have tried our best to say goodbye to each other... are just a bunch of symbols, a bunch of ridiculous sad and humble symbols.
Luo Ling buried her head in her knees and began to cry.
"You, don't scare the child..." Wei Dong paled, and patted Luo Ling on the shoulder with a trembling hand.
"So," Zhu Haowen's voice was also slightly dry. "Is the "Schrodinger's Cat" painting that we previously speculated, and one of the two competing forces suggests to us?
"It implies that outside our world, there is a consciousness higher than our material world, so for us, consciousness creates matter.
"And what we are to that kind of advanced consciousness is the same as two-dimensional creatures to three-dimensional creatures. In our two-dimensional world, three-dimensional creatures cannot be seen. We can only feel their projection...
"It's like a saying in the scientific community-high-dimensional creatures are like gods to low-dimensional creatures. The force they add to the low-dimensional world is very unbelievable to low-dimensional creatures. What is unimaginable is something that only God can do, because low-dimensional creatures can never imagine the appearance of high-dimensional creatures, and their attributes, or abilities, just as we can never imagine four-dimensional space, ten The one-dimensional space looks mediocre."
"If our destiny has been set by the advanced consciousness, what is the use of all our efforts now? Anyway, the result is doomed, and the damn will die. What else can we struggle with? "" Wei Dong said in despair.
Ke Xun rubbed his face fiercely with his hands, and laughed: "I was wrong. I blamed me and spread pessimism. Brothers, this is just a guess. There may be thousands of possibilities for painting events, but this is just one of them. .
"When you get your spirits up, my family said suddenly. The consciousness is also a kind of mental power. Spiritual power is different from matter. It has no upper limit. No one knows how strong one's mental power can be. On a spiritual level, we may not necessarily lose.
"Let’s pause for a while and relax, so what? Why don’t you watch the movie together? It just so happens that the female compatriots are not there. I have the latest European and American hunk movies, just like the FBI warning in the opening. ..."
Everyone: "..."
Wei Dong: "Go away! A good sad mood ruined you!"
Ke Xun got up and said, "I will take a rest. I will give you all night supper. Ke's delicious food. The cliff made you eat all night and sleep well. Spring dreams come and go."
Everyone: "..."
Ke's delicious supper is a hot, golden and fragrant mutton and millet porridge, topped with chopped carrots and chopped green onions, and adorned with a few bright red goji berries.
The golden orange, green and red, the bright colors and the whiteness of the heat immediately dilute the sorrow and depression that enveloped the hearts of everyone. Even Mu Yiran, Qin Ci and Shao Ling, who have always had a rather self-disciplined lifestyle, couldn't help but pick up a spoon. , Broke the habit of not eating after eight o'clock in the evening.
"Is there any dry food?" Wei Dong may be frightened, and his appetite for a while, ordered on the spot.
Ke Xun went into the kitchen and heated a dozen small milk buns the size of pigeon eggs.
Luo Ling sniffed while sucking his tongue scalded by the porridge. Ke Xun sat aside and tilted his head to look at him: "Looking at you so good, you can cry with a few words-hey shit! Nose! It's almost fucking in the porridge! Can I go blow it first?!"
"I'm afraid of me..." Luo Ling raised his head and sniffed again. "Anyway, I am a symbol, and my snot is also a symbol. Just drop it out of the porridge and treat it as if it was a symbol."
Ke Xun: "..."
A hot meal of porridge in the midwinter night made everyone relax a lot from physical to psychological. After eating, they sat on the thick carpet on the floor of the living room and continued to sort out clues about the "Shan Hai Jing".
"I think we can put aside the idea of'advanced consciousness' and'painting outside of painting' first," Mu Yiran said. "Otherwise, our thoughts will be easily constrained here. No matter whether we are just a'symbol in the paintings of the higher world. ', we should all strive to survive in our own world and find a way to crack it."
"Yiran is right!" Ke Xun said.
