Chapter 1036: I Don't Recognize It

Ayuduo opened the notebook and discovered that inside were very detailed drawings of plants, from the whole to the leaves, flowers, Wax Seed, and roots, all extremely meticulous and drawn so well that one could recognize what they were at a glance, though the various symbols on the side that she had no idea about were a bit strange.

She flipped through it page by page, which always made her feel very delighted; this Changle was truly not spouting nonsense, he was really doing such a thing, and Ayuduo's internal assessment of Changle suddenly rose a great deal.

Yangasha and the others also couldn't help but crowd over to look; after all, things that could be recorded on paper were extraordinary.

Qianxi also watched in amazement, and when he flipped to one page, he even shouted, "I recognize this, I recognize this!" and even stretched his finger out next to the book.

The Soldier Lord slapped Qianxi's hand away directly: "Qianxi, don't mess around, you can't touch this."

Qianxi gave a sheepish laugh: "Hehe, I was just happy, I know, I know."

Changle also discovered at this moment that, apart from Ayuduo, the other people's body parts were all trying their best to avoid his notebook, appearing very reserved and cautious.

Ayuduo, who had been engrossed in looking, suddenly realized something was wrong, hurriedly raised her head, slowly closed the notebook, and with a slightly flushed face, returned it: "I'm so sorry, your drawings are too good, I, I couldn't help but look for a while longer, I shouldn't have looked at this."

Changle took the notebook: "Why shouldn't this be looked at? I believe that the knowledge of Heaven and Earth should be learned by everyone. As long as the people of the Xuanyuan Tribe are willing to learn, I can teach them, but if they have new discoveries, they must also tell me. In this way, by concentrating everyone's knowledge, I can achieve this thing I am doing more quickly."

Ayuduo asked with some excitement and anticipation: "Then are you also willing to teach us people of the Jiuli this knowledge?"

Changle answered with a smile: "Of course, that is no problem, but it also requires you to teach me what you know. In this way, this book of mine will become thicker and thicker, and there will always be someone who can rely on this book of mine to recognize all the grass and trees in the whole world."

Ayuduo pointed at Changle's book and said: "I recognize the things you drew inside, but those symbols that look like insects, I don't recognize them. What are those for?"

Changle flipped to a page casually: "You mean this? This is called writing, it is the symbol we Huaxia use to record things. Each symbol represents a word we speak; look at this."

Changle pointed his finger at one of the characters: "This character means 'flower'. As long as you learn our writing, you will be able to read the book I wrote. And this character, this is 'leaf', this is 'fruit'. Every different symbol, when connected together, is a sentence. Every word we speak out of our mouths now has a corresponding symbol. Think about it, wouldn't that mean everyone could recognize what I wrote, and my knowledge could be passed down?"

The news of writing surprised these people immensely; they couldn't imagine that such a thing could exist. The Soldier Lord also couldn't suppress his own confusion and asked: "Then how many people in your Huaxia can draw these symbols, and how many can recognize them? If only you can, wouldn't that mean no one else can understand it?"

"In our Huaxia, previously, more than half of the children could, while the older ones basically couldn't; at most they recognized one, two, three, four, five, six. However, like these Soldiers of mine here, they can basically recognize a large portion."

Changle subsequently pointed to a Soldier: "Come, Liuwei, come here, read for me what I have written here."

"..., I'm embarrassed."

Changle still didn't let him off: "Oh, just come if I tell you to, just read out what you recognize."

Liuwei walked over very reluctantly. He didn't even wipe his hands before taking the notebook directly, because Huaxia Soldiers were very particular about hygiene and would wash their hands diligently when conditions allowed, so his hands weren't too dirty, but this act of taking the notebook directly still made Ayuduo and the others a bit surprised; they were afraid Changle would punish the Soldier named Liuwei because of this.

However, Changle was not angry in the slightest and flipped a page directly: "Come, read this page, just read what you recognize."

Liuwei's mouth followed his hand as he read: "Un, unnamed, some kind of pine something, Prince, how is this character read?"

Changle waved his hand: "It's fine, skip what you don't recognize, it's not an exam."

"Oh oh, okay, let me see, some kind of pine something, lichen order, pine something something, oh my, Prince, I really don't recognize it. Why don't you find someone else, that Captain Lei, Captain Lei should recognize all of them!"

Changle finally let Liuwei off and took the notebook back. Liuwei hurriedly fled; making him recognize characters wasn't that just making things difficult for him? Did he really like being a Soldier, or did he not like being an official? It was just because his literacy wasn't good and he couldn't pass other exams; recognizing simple, commonly used characters was enough to meet the standard.

Only then did Changle say to the few people who were still confused: "In our Huaxia, it is also quite difficult to teach people who can recognize all the characters. The whole tribe can only find a small portion; others only need to be able to recognize some simple characters."

"Now the Xuanyuan Tribe is also writing their own characters, and I have even helped them compile a Dictionary. Now, not only can I recognize our own Huaxia characters, I can also recognize all of their Xuanyuan Tribe characters. This means that I can also learn all the knowledge that the people of the Xuanyuan Tribe write on paper."

"If you are willing to learn our writing, after you learn it, I can absolutely teach you these things of mine and let you learn them. In this regard, I will absolutely not hide anything."

Ayuduo was more concerned about the paper now, so she pointed at Changle's notebook and said: "Isn't paper very precious? Why would you let your Soldier hold it like that directly?"

Changle weighed his notebook: "Paper? You also know this is called paper?"

Suddenly Changle understood: "Oh, I see, you have trades with the Xuanyuan Tribe after all, so it is normal to know about paper. The Xuanyuan Tribe also has paper."

Ayuduo said without concealment: "The Xuanyuan Tribe has traded some paper with us; it is very, very precious. We can only use a little bit when we have sacrifices."
