Chapter 245: Daily Life That Cannot Be Verified
The professor on the stage is really good at talking nonsense.
Ji Li turned the pen, and Liu Hao beside him whispered, "The five gods are Ju Mang, the wood god of the east, Zhu Rong, the fire god of the south, Ru Shou, the gold god of the west, Gong Gong/Xuan Ming, the water god of the north, and Hou Tu, the earth god of the center. These are all phenomena that the ancients could not explain because of their ignorance, so they all replaced them with myths. But we study history, and these myths are also the objects of our historical research."
Ji Li just listened quietly. The literary talent of the seniors from Qingchuan University was unquestionable. They were also outstanding members of Qingchuan University who were devoted to archaeology.
“…Jiang Ziya even conferred the title of God to comfort those who died in the war and their families, and also hoped to eliminate the hatred between the two sides.
If these were put into reality, they would actually facilitate the stability of the Zhou Dynasty and be conducive to the peace of the unified country.
In fact, it seems that Jiang Ziya's canonization of gods in "The Investiture of the Gods" is a kind of comfort to the gods who died on the battlefield, and it is also for the feudal emperors to rule peacefully and stably. "
Deifying the dead on the battlefield and their families is a way to comfort them and stabilize the country.
Ji Li smiled, "Is it possible that history is just a record, and unofficial history is called unofficial history because it contains daily events that cannot be verified? What if there were really miracles in the early days of China? After all, science has proven that a long time ago, when the world was first created, the clouds were very close to the ground, and then they became farther and farther away, and the world became more and more vast."
In official history, because the matriarchal society gradually declined and was replaced by the patriarchal society, the people who wrote history were also men, and women were regarded as appendages of men. There were only a few short sentences about Feng Hongshi, and the tribe of Shaohao's wife, Feng Hongshi, was replaced, and nothing else was mentioned. There was also the phoenix totem of the Zhou Dynasty, and the early phoenix culture was earlier than the dragon culture. This is also ironclad evidence of the alternation between matriarchal and patriarchal societies.
Zhang Ji curled his lips, "It's very likely. History is a very rigorous thing. Unofficial history is more about daily life. The stories from ancient times that have been passed down to the present day all come from unofficial history. We study more official history. Unofficial history can only be regarded as a joke."
Ji Li nodded in understanding, indicating that he understood.
The instructor finally stopped talking and announced the end of today's communication class.
When the get out of class was over, several seniors whom Ji Li didn't know came up to greet Ji Li, and Ji Li responded to them all with a professional fake smile.
Ji Li finally breathed a sigh of relief after returning to the hotel. He still had to stay in Xianyang for two more days.
The actual tomb-diving operation took place on the day after arriving in Xianyang, and the rest of the two days were spent in Xianyang University, which was very different from Ji Li's idea of a paid vacation or a trip during study. In addition, Nangong Xi and Yan Cheng had not sent any WeChat messages to him, which made Ji Li very eager to return to Qingcheng to see the progress of Nangong Xi and Yan Cheng. It seemed that they also went underground to see some turtles and swords. Ji Li also wanted to know!
Now all we can do is wait to go back. Gousheng is in the space, just as Xueyu said, he has been unconscious and cannot be woken up by force. His soul has to recover on its own.
Before going back, nothing happened. Near the glazed tower not far from the hotel, the pure and spiritual air was still there, and they lived in peace with humans. All they had to do was hide their little tails and not show them to scare people out of their wits.
