Chapter 244 Deciphering Ancient Manchu
The pronunciation of ancient Manchu is difficult to understand and obscure. If ordinary people study it, they may not be able to understand it all their lives.
However, for Bai Fengjiu, this translates smoothly like a native language.
This is not Bai Fengjiu's talent and talent. He is not a genius in cultivation, otherwise he would have ascended to heaven with his fellow brothers.
Bai Fengjiu is also an ordinary person. In addition to being inexplicably immortal and having a lot of time to learn something, he also has his own diligence and hard work.
In ancient times, there were mixed words and many races, and the secrets of cultivation were recorded in various words.
In order to break through the Qi Refining Period, Bai Fengjiu tried no less than hundreds of ways of cultivation and learned the words of various races from it, and ancient Mandarin is one of them.
Bai Fengjiu spent three hours translating and sorting out the two pieces of A4 paper, which made Jin Wushuang and Sister Liu amazed.
Feng Yifei said in a suspicious tone: "Did you translate the right one? Don't make up for it?"
Bai Fengjiu ignored him and handed the translation to Jin Wushuang, saying, "Although it was translated, it was just a poem that praised merits and had no information about the treasure."
Jin Wushuang took the translation and glanced at it, and a strange expression gradually appeared on her face.
"This... this is the story my grandfather told me since he was a child!"
Jin Wushuang said excitedly: "I was raised by my grandfather. He would tell me stories every night before going to bed, and it was the same story."
"I asked my grandpa, I heard this story hundreds of times, it's so annoying. Why don't you tell me a new one?"
"Grandpa said, this story is very meaningful, and you will understand when you grow up."
"Later I grew up, and my grandfather stopped telling me this story, but the content of the story was deeply imprinted in my memory."
Sister Liu asked, "What does this story mean? Does it say where the treasure is hidden?"
"This is a story that praises the king, and does not mention the treasure." Mr. Fu shook his head, "It is not easy to translate it."
In a villa in Dongzhou City, Mr. Fu's face was a little pale. He quickly translated the information in the jade pendant, which made him exhausted. Now his mind was in a mess and he had no energy to think about other things.
On the sofa opposite, a young and handsome young man snorted, "What a waste! Our Tang family spent a lot of resources to support you in studying ancient literature. Finally, he told me that what he translated was just a useless poem?"
The expression on the young man's face gradually became gloomy: "Are you bluffing me? The real information in the jade pendant was hidden by you!"
Mr. Fu was shocked and stood up from the sofa with a panic on his face. "I dare not, Mr. Tang wronged me. Fu Yixin has never had any other intentions for the Tang family. Heaven and earth can be seen. If he is rebellious, the sky will hit lightning and let me die without a place to die!"
Mr. Fu swears, wishing he could dig out his heart for this young master Tang to see.
"I don't know you're afraid." Mr. Tang snorted coldly and said, "We are not only staring at this treasure of the Jin family, but also many unknown forces secretly covet it. Although we first got the information in the jade pendant, it has not been cracked yet, which is equivalent to nothing."
"Now you should hurry up and crack the secrets in the information, and monitor Jin Wushuang and the others' movements, once they decipher in advance..."
A ruthlessness flashed in Mr. Tang's eyes: "Even if you kill someone, you must snatch it for me and must not fall into the hands of others!"
Mr. Fu nodded like a smacking garlic: "Don't worry, Mr. Tang, I will do my best, even if I can't decipher... No! I will be able to decipher and help Mr. Tang get the things in the treasure!"
Mr. Tang nodded with satisfaction, waved his hand and said, "Go, hurry up."
Mr. Fu retreated and the door closed, and Mr. Tang's expression gradually became solemn.
A few hours ago, Mr. Fu passed the information to the Tang family in Yanjing. The patriarch, the grandfather of Mr. Tang, immediately convened a family meeting to discuss the treasure hunt.
The treasure of the Jin family has been coveted by the Tang family for a long time. The person in charge of this matter is Mr. Tang's father and the third brother of the Tang family.
He had sent experts to secretly snatch them many times, but they were all killed.
The repeated failures caused serious losses to the Tang family. Tang San's status began to shake, and all kinds of gossip, like a tiger and wolf, the patriarch began to doubt his ability.
In order to avoid the losses of the Tang family masters, the head of the Tang family temporarily gave up snatching the jade pendant and turned to secretly surveillance. Once an opportunity was discovered, it would not be too late to take action.
Now the opportunity has come. Mr. Fu, who works for the Tang family, has received information from the jade pendant. So who will complete this matter next has a disagreement at the Tang family meeting.
Tang San argued with reason and said that he was always responsible for this matter and would never allow others to intervene.
Tang San’s other six brothers were dissatisfied and said that you failed again and again and did not learn lessons. Such an important task would of course be left to those with capable people to do. There must be no mistakes this time.
The seven brothers quarreled in the conference hall, refused to give in to each other, and had a strong attitude of fighting.
In the end, the old patriarch said, "Don't fight for any of you, and each person will have a copy of the information in the jade pendant. If anyone can get it, the credit will be his.
The Tang family was able to stand for hundreds of years without falling, not because there were many masters in the clan, nor because they were right in the team, but because there was competition in the clan.
Only with competition can the family become stronger. This is the experience of the ancestors' tribe leaders.
Mr. Tang is Tang San's son, named Tang Li. Although his father is not capable of doing things, this son is the best among the younger generation in the family.
However, Tang Li was an illegitimate son and only recognized his ancestors five years ago. However, because he was an illegitimate son, he had never been recognized in the family.
The brothers and sisters of the same generation were very unfriendly to him and even disliked him, feeling that this illegitimate child had touched their Tang family.
Tang Li chose to endure the contempt and ridicule of the so-called brothers and sisters. He knew that without gaining a foothold in the Tang family, all the anger and roar were childish and ridiculous.
This opportunity is rare. Tang Li secretly vowed that he must get the treasure of the Jin family and gain a position in the Tang family. He told those who despise him with practical actions that although Tang Li is an illegitimate son, he is stronger than you so-called genuine descendants!
In the rental house, Bai Fengjiu and the other two were still studying the translated poem.
This is a story of praising the king of Man, leading his people to resist oppression, obtaining a magic weapon, and unifying the Manchus.
Jin Wushuang has already memorized this story, but he still cannot understand a trace of it.
Jin Wushuang held his chin, frowned slightly, pondered for a long time, and said, "We are in the wrong direction."
Sister Liu raised her head and asked, "What's the wrong direction?"
"I can't understand ancient Manchu. It was Fengjiu who translated it and realized that this was the story my grandfather told me. The story my grandfather told me used ancient Manchu."
