The origin of Chinese characters

Cang Xie, who looked up at the astronomical phenomena and looked down on everything, created the book Bird Traces. At that time, "I cried when the devil came, Grain Rain". Be honored as the ancestor of writing. There is a couplet in the tomb of Cangjie (during the period of the Republic of China): "Draw hexagrams and then open the word ancestor, and the same text will always match the clever spirit." Horizontal batch: "Tongde". Qingming is the emperor, and Grain Rain worships Cang Xie. Huai Nan Zi Ben Jing said: Cang Xie used to write books, but "when it was raining, ghosts cried at night". It is said that the word "Cang Xie" touched the Emperor of Heaven, and in order to reward Cang Xie, a Grain Rain was created for the world, thus forming the Grain Rain in the twenty-four solar terms. This day also became a day of offering sacrifices to Cang Xie.

The surname is Hou Gang, Jia and Shi Huangshi. People in Wu Yang Village, Baishui County, Shaanxi Province are said to have descended from heaven. His moral quality is higher than that of a great saint. With four eyes, he is radiant. "He was born with the ability to write and invent words." It is also said that he saw the stars in the sky, the footprints of birds on the ground, the footprints of animals, what he felt and realized, thus creating the hieroglyphics of China.

The tomb of Cangjie is a dome, one foot high. There is an ancient cypress branch on the top of the tomb, which withers and flourishes in turn every year, commonly known as cypress. This is a rare plant miracle.

March 28th of the lunar calendar is Christmas in Cang Xie.
