Chapter 412 Authentic work!

"quick!"

“Look it up online!”

“Are those two sentences just now part of the Tao Te Ching?”

After Wu Shunqing muttered to himself, he immediately became energetic and shouted to other researchers who were watching.

After everyone heard this, they were all a little confused after they came back to their senses.

After about a few dozen seconds, someone took the lead in shouting: "These two sentences are really from the Tao Te Ching. The first sentence comes from Chapter 75 of the second part of the Tao Te Ching, and the second sentence comes from the Tao Te Ching." Chapter 78 of the second part of the Tao Te Ching!"

As this voice fell, the scene suddenly became an uproar.

The Tao Te Ching is also known as the Tao Te Ching. Anyone who is Chinese knows what this classic book means.

This is a magnificent masterpiece that has been studied by scholars of all dynasties for more than two thousand years. Its content involves philosophy, literature, aesthetics, medicine, military science, sociology, ethics, astronomy, health science, management, etc. Its content It is broad, profound, profound, encompassing hundreds of schools of thought, and inclusive of all things. It is respected by later generations as a secret book for governing the country, family, scholarship, and self-cultivation. It is known as the "King of All Scriptures" and "Encyclopedia".

In Taoism, the "Tao De Zhen" is regarded as the main classic of Taoism. Together with the "Nanhua Zhen Jing" and "Chongxu Zhen Jing", it is also called the Three True Sutras. Lao Tzu, the author of the "Tao De Zhen Jing", relies on this book He founded the Taoist school and is now honored as "Taozu" in Taoism, also known as "Tai Shang Lao Jun".

"I remember that the earliest extant version of the Tao Te Ching is the silk script A and B of the Han Dynasty. If the words recorded on these water-logged bamboo slips are all the contents of the Tao Te Ching, then these water-logged bamboo slips would be too precious. Got it!"

"Who do you think wrote this bamboo slip? It seems that the Tao Te Ching was created by Lao Tzu at the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, right?"

"Do you think it's possible that this is the original version of the Tao Te Ching?"

"Are you kidding? How is this possible?"

"I'm just saying casually, this is indeed a bit outrageous."

……

Everyone was talking a lot, and they were inevitably a little excited to witness the reappearance of the Tao Te Ching from the Spring and Autumn Period.

At this moment, Tang Yuan looked at the water-logged bamboo slips in front of him, and he finally understood why this five-star mission was called "The Beginning of the Tao".

"Tao Te Ching" is the founding work of Taoism. It uses "Tao" to explain the evolution of all things in the universe. It is the beginning of the Taoist school and the foundation for Taoism to be based on the world. Therefore, it is called the "beginning of Tao". It is absolutely It is well deserved.

Soon, the water-saturated bamboo slips in the hands of other researchers also completed the decolorization process one after another, allowing the water-saturated bamboo slips to reappear with writing spanning more than 2,500 years.

If the Tao rushes and is used, it may not be full; the reason why the heaven and the earth can last long and long is because it does not generate itself, so it can live forever; the palace is full of gold and jade, but no one can keep it; the husband does not fight, so no one in the world can fight with it...

The water-filled bamboo slips conveyed the thoughts of more than 2,500 years ago to today's people across time and space. Looking at the scene in front of him, Tang Yuan suddenly understood why Wu Shunqing, Zheng Daoquan and others loved this industry so much. This is indeed a very fulfilling thing.

"Wu...Director Wu, come quickly, come quickly!"

Just when everyone was immersed in the joy of success, a relatively young researcher suddenly shouted towards Wu Shunqing, which attracted everyone to look at him in surprise.

"what happened?"

"Did anything go wrong with the decolorization process?"

Wu Shunqing frowned slightly and asked the other party while walking towards that side.

"No, no, the decolorization was very successful."

The researcher waved his hands repeatedly, then pointed to the water-logged bamboo slip in front of him and said, "Director Wu, look at the words on this water-logged bamboo slip!" Wu Shunqing was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and his eyes moved involuntarily, waiting for him to see clearly. After seeing the words on the water-logged bamboo slip in front of me, I froze in place.

Tang Yuan, who followed Wu Shunqing, saw Wu Shunqing standing there without saying a word. He thought something had happened, so he followed him and looked at the waterlogged bamboo slips.

"Fuck!"

After Tang Yuan saw the words above clearly, he couldn't help but cursed.

Because on this water-logged bamboo slip, it was clearly written: Written by Li Dan!

Just three words, the shock it gave Tang Yuan was comparable to that of a nuclear explosion.

"Director Wu, this..."

Tang Yuan was a little confused, and he subconsciously looked at Wu Shunqing beside him.

Facing Tang Yuan's gaze, Wu Shunqing's eyes were extremely complicated, and he said in a slightly sad tone: "Director Tang, what you found in that bronze tripod seems to be something extraordinary!"

"Director Wu, based on these three words alone, can you be sure that it is my authentic work?"

Tang Yuan took a deep breath, then lowered his voice and asked Wu Shunqing.

"I can't be sure." Wu Shunqing shook his head, and then changed the topic: "But in the future, as long as there is no more powerful proof that the authentic copy of the Tao Te Ching written by Lao Tzu appears, then you can definitely say that with just these three words, This is the authentic copy of the Tao Te Ching written by Laozi, and it will be recognized by the archaeological and historical circles."

When Tang Yuan heard this, he probably understood what Wu Shunqing meant.

Unless there is an authentic copy of the Tao Te Ching written by Lao Tzu in the future, then after the water-logged bamboo slips in his hand are successfully restored, he can only rely on the three words "authored by Li Dan", plus these water-logged bamboo slips. The age of the bamboo slips is enough to call them authentic.

Even if experts and scholars raise objections by then, they will not be able to shake its status, just like the Twenty-Four Seals of the Ming Dynasty that Tang Yuan opened from the stone tablet some time ago.

Before the Twenty-Four Seals of the Ming Dynasty came out, the jade seal of the Yongli Edict of the Southern Ming Dynasty in the Dian Provincial Museum was always displayed as an authentic work. Until Tang Yuan found the Twenty-Four Seals of the Ming Dynasty, the Yongli Edict of the Southern Ming Dynasty. The Jade Seal, the Treasure of Life, was removed from the Yunnan Provincial Museum.

Who is real and who is fake?

The main thing is to see who is more true and who is more false!

In the absence of more authentic and sufficient historical evidence, these water-logged bamboo slips by Tang Yuan are the authentic copies of the Tao Te Ching written by Lao Tzu!

Suddenly, Tang Yuan's mind changed slightly.

Wu Shunqing and others may not be able to identify whether these water-logged bamboo slips are genuine works of Lao Tzu, but Tang Yuan has a way.

Whether it is authentic or not can be found out through the mysterious ancient ring.

If it is an authentic work, the grade will definitely be judged to be peerless. If the original "Tao Te Ching" written by Laozi cannot be rated as peerless, then Tang Yuan really doesn't know what else can be rated as peerless.

Thinking of this, Tang Yuan glanced at Wu Shunqing and asked in a low voice: "Director Wu, can I touch it?"

"Be gentle, that's okay."

If someone else made such a request, Wu Shunqing would definitely not agree to it, and would not even look good on the other party. But the person who made the request was Tang Yuan, and Wu Shunqing would not be able to refuse, because Tang Yuan was the real owner of these flooded bamboo slips. Owner.

After receiving Wu Shunqing's affirmative answer, Tang Yuan raised his right index finger wearing the mysterious ancient ring and carefully touched the water-filled bamboo slip in front of him. At the same time, he silently consumed 500 collection values ​​and used the mysterious ancient ring to explore.

Soon, several system virtual prompt boxes popped up in front of Tang Yuan's eyes. After he saw clearly the contents of the system virtual prompt box, his heart suddenly stirred up waves...
