Chapter 336 Shock the world
In the remaining week, with the help of the polar bear, Wu Tianyuan finally smuggled all the treasures that could be carried away to the capital, and set aside half of the Ancient Civilization Museum to decorate the Akka Civilization.

"Curator, this is number 16, the French Louvre can't sit still!"

"Not only France, Britain, the United States, Germany, and Japan are going crazy!"

Hu Jianmin said excitedly: "This time, the news of the ancient civilization of Akha that you discovered shocked the world! Thanks to you who smuggled back the most essential part, countless archaeologists are now rushing to Ecuador to eat our leftovers!"

Wu Tianyuan smiled slightly, he had no choice but to act first, and now he also experienced the pleasure of protecting the civilization of all mankind.In the past, the Eight-Power Allied Forces used wars to rob cultural relics in China, euphemistically calling it the protection of cultural heritage?

Lao Tzu is also protecting the heritage today, so I love it!
"No one dares to think about your identity now, but many museums have sent invitations, hoping to exchange some cultural relics, do you see?"

"Let them send a list, and ask for the best cultural relics, and let us decide what to replace!"

Old Ren left arrogantly. His phone calls have been ringing all over the past few days, and they are all asking for his relationship. This feeling is really refreshing!

"This batch is pre-Qin bamboo slips?"

Unexpectedly, the first batch of exchanges was not the British Museum and the Louvre, but a little-known small museum in Japan.

A roll of bamboo slips is spread out on the table. The bamboo slips are made up of hundreds of pieces of bamboo that are about two feet long and two fingers wide. Each piece of bamboo is written with a line. .

The characters are very beautiful and unique, warm, luxurious, and ethereal, and the brush is clean and neat, without hooking and drawing, which makes people think of Hongyi's Xingkai calligraphy, which is detached from the outside world.

"Old Guo, what do you see?"

Guo Jing, an honorary ancient book appraisal expert of the Palace Museum, has deep attainments in this area, and has systematically studied seal characters. This time Wu Tianyuan specially invited him to appraise.

He took the bamboo slips on the table in his hand and translated them word by word, "It is said that the sound of bells and yin in the palace of heaven, its mutual generation follows the number of yang, and its yang has no shoots. No shot gives birth to Zhonglu, and Zhonglu is in the same position as the underground palace. It is not necessary to give birth to Huang Zhong, Huang Zhong gave birth to Lin Zhong, Lin Zhong's underground palace."

"This is the Book of Music."

Before Guo Jing finished reading the content of the bamboo slips, old man Ouyang had already exclaimed loudly, his voice trembling because he was so excited.Then he turned to Wu Tianyuan and asked eagerly, "Are these bamboo slips real? Are there any other bamboo slips that belong to the same book as this volume of bamboo slips?"

Wu Tianyuan nodded and said, "There are 330 volumes in the same book as this bamboo slip."

After speaking, he pointed to 330 scrolls of bamboo slips neatly placed on a table and said, "These are all bamboo slips."

From the Warring States period to the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the ancients' writing materials were bamboo slips, which were compiled into books with narrow and long strips of bamboo.Since not many characters can be written on a piece of bamboo slips, several carts are often loaded with a book of slips.The ancients said "learn rich five carts", which means that the books read exceed five carts of bamboo slips.

The "Book of Music" is composed of 330 scrolls of bamboo, which can almost hold four or five carts.

Old man Ouyang walked quickly to the case in spite of his gaffe, picked up a roll of bamboo slips, spread it out and looked down for a while, then raised his head, his eyes widened, with an incredulous expression on his face, and he said in shock, "These It’s all there, I didn’t expect to see the entire chapter of the well-inherited “Book of Music” here.”

We must know that the pre-Qin academic tradition is long and profound, and the pre-Qin academics are in the Six Classics. "Book of Songs", "Shangshu", "Book of Rites", "Book of Music", "Book of Changes", and "Spring and Autumn", among which are the important academics of "Book of Music" and "Spring and Autumn".

Later, the Four Books and Five Classics, the Five Classics refers to "Book of Songs", "Shangshu", "Book of Rites", "Zhouyi", "Spring and Autumn", why there is no "Book of Music", because "Book of Music" is lost.

The "Book of Music" was destroyed by Qin Huo. After Qin Huo, the "Book of Music" was no longer circulated.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the historian Ban Gu said, "The ancients used "Yi", "Book", "Poetry", "Li", "Yue" and "Spring and Autumn" as the "Six Classics". Take "Yi", "Book", "Poem", "Li" and "Spring and Autumn" as the five classics.

Shen Yue of the Southern Dynasties also said in "Song Shu. Le Zhi": "When the Qin Dynasty burned the classics, the "Yue Jing" was used and died, and the Han Dynasty prospered. The Yue family had a family, but they can remember its sonorous and encouraging, but cannot express its meaning. "

Knowing the importance of the "Book of Music" to the study of pre-Qin academic culture and the inheritance of Chinese traditional culture, it is not difficult to understand the gaffe of the old men.

What does this bamboo slip of the Book of Music represent?It represents the most important link that was missing in the pre-Qin era, which buried the origin of Chinese traditional culture, 'music'.

It has always been said that China is a country of etiquette, and what is the most important part of etiquette is 'music'.From ancient times to modern times, Chinese cultural scholars and literati all sighed and regretted the loss of the "Book of Music", and hated Qin Shihuang's burning of books and burying Confucianism.

Now that the 330 volumes of bamboo slips in the "Book of Music" have been published, these bamboos are simply called rare treasures, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are treasures.

Ordinary cultural relics, such as porcelain, first of all, they are beautiful and have artistic appreciation.Second, they contain Chinese porcelain culture.But there is very little that is carried on each piece of porcelain.

From the 330 volumes of bamboo slips in the "Book of Music", first of all, it is the carrier of words. Through the study of these words, people can clearly understand the academics, history and culture of the pre-Qin period.Secondly, pre-Qin academics are in the Six Classics, and the "Book of Music" is an important one. The most important part of culture, 'music'.

"This is the real treasure of the country." After a long time, everyone raised their heads from the 330 volumes of bamboo slips in the "Book of Music", and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

There are also many articles of "Shangshu", some of which have handed down versions, but there are many differences in the sentences, and even the titles of the articles are different, but most of them are missing articles that have not been found before, and there are no handed down copies, or Although found in the handed down version, the latter is a pseudo-ancient text.This will greatly change the face of Chinese ancient history research, and its value is hard to estimate. "

From the bamboo slips of the "Book of Music", to the 160 bamboo slips of "Shiben", and then to the [-]-volume bamboo slips of "Shang Shu", amazing discoveries have been made in the bamboo slips one after another. In the history of the middle period, many contents are known to people for the first time.

Some bamboo slips recorded the music poems that had been lost after the Qin Dynasty, which were about major historical events from the early Western Zhou Dynasty to the middle Warring States Period.

Some bamboo slips recorded secrets of content that had been lost for a long time in history.

Some bamboo slips recorded many articles such as "Poetry", "Book", and Baijiayu, most of which have been lost.

Wu Tianyuan waved his hand and said domineeringly: "We changed these!"
