Chapter 280 Fuso is on the American continent
After hearing Ye Zhen's explanation, everyone knew. The record about Fusang Kingdom in "Book of Liang" is actually like this. Ye Zhen turned around and said: "Monk Huishen went to Fusang Country back then. And recorded the local customs and customs. We can see what monk Huishen saw back then. "Book of Liang" records the punishment of criminals in the Fusang Kingdom. The nobles are guilty, and the country is a general assembly. The sinners are sitting in the pit, feasting on them, and saying goodbye as if they were dead. Surrounded by ashes, the first layer will protect the whole body, the second layer will extend to descendants, and the third layer will extend to seven generations. What this means is that if the nobles of Fuso State commit crimes, then these criminals will be gathered in the pits. And they started a banquet and drank with them, just like parting from life to death. And use the ashes of fresh burning to smoke them, the criminals.
Circled in different numbers depending on the severity of their crime. " This behavior of dealing with criminals seems so special. Some viewers have never seen such a scene. "This is such a strange way to treat criminals." “It feels like I’ve never seen it before.” "This is not the law of our country." "This shows that it is not the Japanese country. There is no such thing in the Japanese country." It was obviously the first time for the audience to hear this method of dealing with prisoners. Some historians rummaged through the contents of their minds. I have never found such a method of dealing with prisoners in our country's dynasties. It can be confirmed that this is not within the scope of our country. So there were those scholars who insisted that Fusang Country was in our country. In fact, they also know that this statement is just for some pitiful national sentiments. They don't want to admit that this Fuso is actually a place like Japan. How can you accept it?
But there was no way. The Japanese theory of Fuso Kingdom had the upper hand. Now it seems that this theory of Fusang Kingdom is simply untenable. Some researchers thought for a while. "Such a unique punishment method should be very easy to find." "As long as we find similar customs in other places, we can know where the Fuso Kingdom is?"
"So where in the world would there be such a strange law?" Obviously their engineering thinking is very clear. Professor Yan Xin didn't pay much attention to these things. He just wanted to know where the Fusang was. Professor Yan Xin asked his graduate students to drink together, "Come on, drink." The same was true for a group of people who were tired of winning, but they didn't drink. Instead they were sipping tea, and obviously they liked tea more. Professor Zhou asked: "In the history of our country, there seems to be no such unique method of dealing with prisoners." Old Wu nodded frequently, "Yes, there is no such thing in my memory." So where in the world would have such a unique law?
Song Xuan looked at Ye Zhen on the screen and said, "Where can there be both agave and such a strange law?" "Have you never seen such laws and methods of dealing with prisoners?" Ye Zhen was about to start popularizing science. "Because this is simply not the way our country or Japan handles prisoners." "Let's take a look at ancient Mexico." Mexico?
Ye Zhen said softly: "The Indians in ancient Mexico had this way of dealing with prisoners. The Indian site discovered was called Kiva. What is this Kiva? It's just a big hole dug out. Drive some criminals into this big pit, and then light chili peppers around it. After the peppers are extinguished, use the ashes to smoke them. " Hearing this, even a blind person will know. Isn't this the method of dealing with prisoners recorded in "Liang Shu"?
This is basically the same thing, right?
In addition, Mexico is a place rich in agave. Could it be that the Fusang Country that Monk Huishen mentioned is Mexico? And where is Mexico?
Right on the American continent!
After hearing about this Mexican method of dealing with prisoners. The audience was shocked. “I can’t say they are exactly the same, I can only say they are very similar.” "I remember Mexico is where agave grows." "Hey, is this Fuso Country Mexico?" "It means that Monk Huishen has already been to the American continent!" Obviously this has a huge impact on ordinary viewers. But there are still some people who can't believe it.
Some historians caution: "It could just be a coincidence." "Yes, it could just be a coincidence, it's not necessarily Mexico." "I think that's still up for debate." They obviously didn't dare to draw conclusions easily. When archaeologists saw that Fuso Country was actually Mexico? Can't help but think of it, in the last century. Strange cultural relics are often unearthed in some Indian ruins in Mexico. The strangest thing is that some of the cultural relics are very similar to oracle bones. And there are strange Chinese writings on some stones. This is the strangest thing to some local archaeologists. "If Fuso Country is Mexico, this would explain it." "Did Monk Huishen really go to Mexico back then?" "It's unbelievable." Some of the scientific researchers who just came out immediately knew that there was a lot of fusang in Mexico. "Let me just say this unique criminal law is very easy to find." "Isn't this a good match?" "So Mexico is really Fuso?" Professor Yan Xin had just finished a glass of wine and looked at Ye Zhen on the screen. "Is Fuso Mexico?" After Professor Zhou listened to Ye Zhen's explanation, he immediately went to look up some information on ancient Mexico. It's exactly what Ye Zhen said. "Lao Zhou, how's your investigation going?" Lao Wu asked from the side. Professor Zhou said: "It's the same as what Mr. Ye said. This was indeed the case for the Indians in Mexico." Lao Wu is an archeology veteran. Naturally, he knew that some strange cultural relics had been unearthed on the Mexican side. Because of this matter, Mexican archaeologists came to their country to help. Ning Xiu also didn't expect that this Fusang country was actually Mexico?
"Does Fuso Country really exist?" Song Xuan didn't expect, "Is it so easy to be proven?" Obviously if this is true, Fuso Country is Mexico.
This proves that what Ye Zhen said at the beginning is correct. It turns out that Columbus was not the first to discover the American continent. So, monk Huishen is the first?
The camera returns to Ye Zhen. Ye Zhen pointed to the small whiteboard and said, "Do you think this evidence is gone? Some people may think that this evidence is not sufficient at all and may be just a coincidence. So what happens next, is it also a coincidence? " Ye Zhen took out the archaeological data from Mexico. “These are cultural relics excavated from some local sites in Mexico. Do you think there is something special about these cultural relics? " I saw some cultural relics appearing behind Ye Zhen. But the most peculiar thing is that these cultural relics have something similar to writing. The audience saw these cultural relics unearthed in Mexico. "Why do these words look so familiar?" "That's right, I feel like I've seen it somewhere." "Does this look a bit like our Chinese characters?" Apparently some smart viewers saw it right away. Some historians are very knowledgeable about these things. "These words really look like Chinese characters." "Some are like ancient oracle bones." "How could such words appear in Mexico?" Obviously historians like them cannot understand it either. But some archaeological experts know. At that time, some archaeological experts had seen these cultural relics with their own eyes. Because when it was unearthed, the local Mexican archaeologists were also at a loss. Why is this so?
Because the real indigenous people of Mexico had already been killed by Western invaders. The original indigenous people and some civilizations have disappeared. These local archaeologists were just recent immigrants. So of course they don't know what the excavated cultural relics are.
But that doesn't stop them from figuring out what it is. They found that this was actually similar to Chinese characters. He directly found Chinese archaeological experts to cooperate. Speaking of archaeological technology and knowledge. China can be said to be unique in the world. "I saw these Mexican cultural relics back then." said an old archaeologist. "The characters on these cultural relics are very similar to Chinese characters, but they are not Chinese characters." "But in local legends, these symbols are the words of gods." "According to their own words, these words or symbols have mysterious power." In this regard, Professor Yan Xin thought after seeing these cultural relics. "Isn't this the text we passed on back then?" Yan Xin thought of this possibility. Professor Zhou looked at some words and said, "This should have evolved from Hanzi." "But these symbols don't seem to have any meaning." Of course Lao Wu knew these things, and he had unearthed a very outrageous cultural relic back then. Just over there in Mexico. Ning Xiu looked at some cultural relics excavated in Mexico. "These are all evidence, evidence that Huishen has been to Mexico." Ning Xiu knew why Ye Zhen was so sure at first. Columbus was not the first person to discover the New World. Because Ye Zhen already knew it, more than a thousand years before Columbus. Monk Huishen has already been to Mexico. And it brought many things to the local area. The symbols similar to Chinese characters on these cultural relics are the best evidence. Song Xuan looked at Ye Zhen on the screen with admiration, "Consultant Ye is so awesome!" (End of this chapter)
