Chapter 381 Sword History

Regardless of the history of the East and the West, the inheritance of culture has always been very important.

The history and thoughts left by the ancestors in the history of China are the most precious wealth.

When talking about the history of the West, why did Pim's first reaction be the Renaissance?

Because in the history of the West, the Renaissance period is considered the first year of their history. From this period, the history of the West has entered a truly contextual and written era.

Before the Renaissance in the West, the study of early history was completely different between the East and the West. The East advocates using history books to study history, because since the earliest Yin and Shang Dynasties, China has entered the era of using words to describe history. However, Western history has always existed in the form of poetry and even legends, which has brought great difficulties to research.

In the modern West, it has been questioned whether the era of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors in Chinese legends exists because this era in China is similar to the Dark Ages in the West. There is no written history, only legends remain, and it is necessary to excavate historical fragments from the vast land to support all kinds of Viewpoints, no doubt, are difficult.

So it's easy for Pim to speculate from his own perspective:

"If FANG wants to use European history to make assassins, he can only start with the Renaissance."

With an embarrassed smile, Pim explained:

"The history of Europe was basically in a fragmented state before the Renaissance. If Hongyi wants to make it, it is difficult to piece together a complete history from these fragments. If they want to make a complete chapter, they need to make up for these histories. It’s over, but on the one hand, this will go against FANG’s idea of ​​“history is your playground”, because fabricated history is no longer history. On the other hand, this will offend many EU countries. The early myths are even written directly in the national history books, so even if these games are based on the early history, it is doomed to fail to satisfy everyone.”

66 and Yu Jiashu both nodded. The biggest misunderstanding of China's education is that many people think that the whole world is the same as China, that all foreign countries have a complete history, that the people of all foreign countries are hospitable, and that all The proletariat in the world can shout out "princes and generals are kind!" in the face of unfair rule, but in fact, a complete history is really the greatest wealth of a nation, and there are really very few nations with this wealth. .

"I seem to have heard of it." Speaking of these, Yu Jiashu was very interested. He just saw such content on the official account two days ago, and was about to show off: "The West seems to have been arguing about the existence of Jesus. "

Pym smiled, what does the history of European Christianity have to do with him, a Jewish believer in America?

The group of three continued to tour. When the three of them were in the stone room, it was Pym who left the country. He half-kneeled and finished the assassin's oath as the material for the video. His tall figure and handsome appearance attracted many people to stop and watch. After the filming ended, the three of them left the stone room while chatting, and walked slowly to the place where the Order of the Holy Order was sworn in.

"In the game, the Holy Order is the embryonic form created by the first emperor. He believes that all people live under a unified order, and each is in his position and performs his duties. This is the ideal state of governance. His ideal state of governance is closer to The Utopia described in "Lao Tzu" is full of traffic, where chickens and dogs hear each other, and never communicate with each other. That is to say, the people can be self-sufficient. Although they can hear each other's neighbor's dog barking, they don't have to deal with their neighbors until they die. The ideal state of his job." 66 explained to Pim while also explaining to the video, and then slowly walked to the center of the place where the Holy Order took the oath.

Holding the hilt of the decorative sword at the scene with both hands, 66 rested his forehead against the hilt and recited softly:

"Remember our purpose:

Lead all restless souls till the path of tranquility

Lead all the rousing desires till the hot blood cools down

Lead all floating wills until they become calm contemplation

The Holy Order takes an oath here.

"

A delicate woman with a brave long sword has a different kind of tempting temperament. At least many people around have directly pulled out their mobile phones and turned on the camera.

It was 66 herself who couldn't hold back the first, she burst out laughing and said:

"It's too high school, but it's really handsome."

Touching the long sword in his hand, 66 used this as an introduction to explain:

"Chinese long swords are not widely used in the world's war history, because it is not as good as a knife for chopping, and not as good as a spear for stabbing, but the overall cost and craftsmanship level are several times that of swords and guns. Although the Spring and Autumn Period in the game has Swords, but most of the swords are not more than 50 centimeters in length, they are standard short swords, most of them are used for body protection, and occasionally used for assassination, such as the allusion of the fish sausage sword in the game."

"It wasn't until the metallurgical technology improved in the later period that long swords gradually increased." Speaking of this, 66 flicked the long sword in his hand: "The length of the long swords of the swearers in the Holy Order is mostly according to the emperor's saber To determine the length, the standard length is 83 cm, which is closer to the standard of a sacrificial vessel. Compared with its actual combat significance, its symbolic meaning is more important. There are many good qualities, so the Holy Order for the members of the sword is more to enable members to self-examination and self-supervision."

Pim's face was very helpful. For him, although he could speak Chinese well, the gap between being able to speak Chinese and understanding Chinese culture could be as big as reaching Star, and the sword is a weapon that is rare in the world. There are at least dozens of development directions, among which the unique sword culture developed by Huaxia is even more difficult for a foreigner to understand.

"Actually, Pim, if you think about it this way, you will understand." Yu Jiashu whispered: "The sword is an absolutely symmetrical weapon. Given a choice, which would you choose?"

Pim frowned and thought for a moment:

"Is there no hidden swordsman? After thinking about it, I still prefer assassins. I don't like swords. I think hidden swords are more suitable for me."

Yu Jiashu was speechless, not knowing what to say.

Although talking about the noise, but the shooting of the video did not fall behind. 66 focused on the significance of the unique weapon of Chinese swordsmanship in the Holy Order, and took it as a typical example of the difference between China and the West to interact with Pim. for a moment.

In the end, the three of them returned to the original coffee shop. Pim brought a complete set of equipment and connected his mobile phone to his laptop. Pim started editing the video on the spot. Yu Jiashu and 66 stood behind to observe.

"Give me a light here, why didn't I realize that you took my photos so dark?" This is 66's opinion.

"Brother, what is the shortcut key for drawing frames here? Let me learn." This is Yu Jiashu's request.
