After a day of study, Rurik could easily remember any Ron letters that were similar to the modern Roman letters he knew.
It is impossible to learn the remaining letters in a short time, but this does not trouble him.
It is already late. After all, Vilia is an old man. To live to such an age in the current era is simply a miracle of life.
Vilia was delighted that Rurik was indeed the best hope of the tribe, and his desire to learn moved people to tears.
"That's it! Rurik, mastering these words cannot be completed in one day. You go back and have a good rest, and we will continue tomorrow."
"That's fine." Rurik asked weakly: "Grandma Priest, how about you let me take the board away. I want to study again when I get home. As you know, my father and many people from the tribe have already set out to hunt in the afternoon. No one told me stories during the long night, and I was bored. I thought it would be best to study under the light."
"Oh?" Wei Liya thought. The words of a child are simply unbelievable. It is simply a miracle that the tribal boys would take the initiative to learn the knowledge on the wooden board!
She laughed happily, and then ordered her subordinates: "Bona, go get a small jar of grease."
"Grease?" Rurik asked curiously.
"This is for you. If you are willing, you can light the oil lamp at night and continue to study by yourself." After saying that, Vilia handed the board to Rurik's hand, "You can find some sand when you go back. Use a wooden stick to shake it and practice writing letters."
"Yes, I can. But before that..." Rurik asked weakly, "Give me a knife. I want to make some marks on the wooden board.”
“What?” Wei Liya was shocked, “Do you want to carve such a wooden board?”
< p>After all, Rurik is still a seven-year-old child. Although he has the oracle of "Odin's blessing", Vilia knows that he announced the so-called oracle first, but in Vilia's heart, he seems calm. Rurik must have a naughty soul in his heart. Any little boy, shouldn't he be naughty?She emphasized: "Child, this board is very precious, you must cherish it."
"Really?" Rurik chuckled, "But I saw you just now But after carefully cleaning the dust on it, the board has indeed not been used for a long time. Presumably the same is true for other boards. It is indeed precious. If no one uses it, what is its value? Since the entire tribe will. As long as I love learning, please give it to me. As long as I learn the content well, its value will be reflected."
Villa thought about it and realized that there was nothing wrong with the child's logic.
Perhaps Rurik did have some special ideas. She specifically asked: "What do you want to carve on the wood with a knife?"
"It's some auxiliary markings. Let me How to know each letterWhat do you think? ”
“Oh? What a smart decision. "Velia didn't think much about it for the time being. She handed over the knife and watched Rurik tilt his head, concentrating on carving something.
But suddenly an extremely weird idea filled Vilia's aging brain. , she suddenly realized something - how should Rurik mark the pronunciation of letters!
This was simply unbelievable, Vilia thought for a while, she couldn't see Rurik clearly? What is he carving? It is not carving something complicated after all.
Maybe this child has to invent some symbols and explain the pronunciation of the rune letters.
Vilia suppressed it. With a sense of urgency in his heart, he said: "Child, be careful of the tip of the knife stabbing your hand. You carve slowly, and when you're done, let me see what you carved. After that, I'm going to sand your board again. ”
“Okay, Grandma Priest. ”
After saying that, Rurik lowered his head and slowly carved it with an iron dagger.
In fact, in Rurik’s view, using a certain method to mark another The most efficient way to pronounce words is to use Roman letters.
Perhaps it is a bit biased to think so, but it cannot be denied that after the destruction of Rome, her writing system was at least inherited by the barbarian countries. Roman script underwent writing transformation that was beneficial to its own use.
In ninth-century Britain, the various Saxon countries were just beginning to face the great influence of their relatives in Northern Europe, namely the Danes and Norwegians. Invasion on a large scale. They could never have imagined that the eventual unified nation of Britain would sail across the world in a thousand years, making its own language the so-called "world language".
The ancient Roman alphabet and one. It was different after thousands of years, and Britain made the most profound transformation of it, changing it into the most universal alphabet in the world.
It is so universal that many people after thousands of years. Countries have their own native alphabet, but for the convenience of international use, they have come up with a Roman alphabet transliteration method.
For example, Belarus’ writing has Kirill. There are two sets of English version and Roman version, both of which are completely common.
Old Norse is also a branch of the Germanic language, so the British Saxon dialect of the ancient Germanic language constitutes the main body of modern English. , which has huge similarities with the ancient Norse language.
Rurik carved the modern English letters corresponding to each rune letter on the oak board thousands of years later, which is the so-called modern Rome. Letters.
His carving ability is limited, at least the words he carved are clearly visible.
He was engrossed in carving and did not notice Vilia's intense attention. The light of the oil lamp in the room was dim, and Vilia's eyesight was getting worse due to aging. She didn't know exactly what kind of marks the child had carved.
Vilia was looking forward to it in her heart, in order to ensure it. My serious identity and the excitement in my heartThe moment was firmly suppressed.
When the marking of the last letter was completed, Rurik took a deep breath and blew the smallest sawdust on the board clean.
"Grandma Priest, I have finished it. In this way, I can understand these marks. I can assure you now, give me some other wooden boards, and I can read through the letter board in my hand. "Extract the contents of those boards and get the information."
"Oh? Really?" Vilia was still very eager, she stretched out her right hand, "Quickly! Let me see what you are doing." What."
"Okay."
Rurik didn't think much about it, because he always believed that what he had obtained as Liu Li in another dimension. All kinds of knowledge are unique in Roseburg at the end of the world. Even the priest who is known as a wise man does not know even one percent of his knowledge.
Rurik is not someone who is willing to keep a low profile, he behaves smarter. When you talk to people around you about things that are too advanced, they are basically unable to understand and resonate with you, and they will only think it is the nonsense of children.
After all, I am only seven years old. How much can a child do?
Perhaps, only by showing one's own style in the martial arts competitions between children can the majority of the tribe completely feel that "this child has a bright future."
