Why did the ghost cry when Cangjie made words?

First of all, it is affirmed that ghosts do not exist, but why the legend of "Cangjie made words, shocked the world, and cried ghosts and gods" is still passed down to this day, please follow the reader.

Cangjie is a famous myth and legend in ancient China. Cangjie, the historian of the Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, played an important role in the creation of Chinese characters. However, later generations generally believe that Chinese characters were created by Cangjie alone, which is actually a fallacy.

In order to understand why there were ghosts crying when Cangjie made characters, we should first understand the background of the time. In the process of Cangjie's character making, the ghost crying is not a matter of one night or one moment, it is a generalization that alludes to the amazing achievement of the historical event of Cangjie's character creation.

And why do ghosts cry? There is also an explanation in "Huainanzi Benjing Training", "And the false life is also, decorating wisdom to surprise foolishness, setting up deception to be clever, there are people in the world who can hold it, and there are people who can govern it." In the past, Cangjie wrote books, and the sky rained, and the ghosts cried at night. ”

The general meaning of this ancient text is that after the birth of hypocrisy, there will be things that fool people through cunning and even cunning to trick the emperor. There are people who can occupy the world, but they may not be able to rule the world. In the past, Cangjie made words, and the heavens were worried that with culture, the world would be full of fraud, and the people would abandon their roots and follow the end, and embark on a bad road and the world would lack food, so they felt pity and rain from the sky, and the ghosts were worried that their past evil deeds would be exposed by the books, so they cried at night.

Myths are still myths in the final analysis, and most of the records about myths are written by later generations after listening to the descriptions of their predecessors, and they will be more or less mixed with a trace of subjective emotions. To sum up, ghosts do not exist. The reason why it is said that Cangjie made words and wept ghosts and gods is just that people exaggerate the great achievements of Cangjie in making words.

This is a kind of god-like effect, whether there are ghosts in this world or not is an unsolved mystery, I think it is passed down from generation to generation in the world, and there may be some errors. Moreover, the ancient people were more superstitious, and they may have imagined hearing other voices as the sound of ghosts crying.

It must be fake, and the use of earth-shattering ghosts and gods is just to describe the groundbreaking act of creating this word, not that there are really ghosts crying.

There are no ghosts in the world, and such records in the history books are only intended to express the great significance of the creation of words, and the use of ghosts to allude to the fear that some people will be exposed to the public for the bad things they have done after they have written words.

It must be fake, there are no ghosts in this world at all, otherwise why haven't you seen it, probably because the people at that time were more superstitious, and they thought it was a ghost at all.

It's just a legend, no one has ever seen a ghost at all, and there is no accurate standard for the definition of a ghost, so this ghost crying thing is just a rumor to increase the mystery of Cangjie's wording.

This may just be a legend, no one knows whether there are ghosts in this world, not to mention that in the era of Cangjie characters, there was no scientific proof. It's just rumors.

This should be a legend, is there really a ghost in the world? At least nowadays people don't believe that there are ghosts in the world, so the crying sound comes from?

There is nothing to prove the existence of this thing, so I think this thing should be just a legend, where are there ghosts in the world, we have to believe in science.

This story must be fake, after all, we still don't know if there are ghosts in the world.

Why do you say "Cangjie makes words, the sky rains, and the ghost cries at night".

This is because his status in society at that time was relatively high, and writing is also of great significance to the development of human society, and many people feel that after the emergence of writing, it will be more difficult to go to heaven, and this also belongs to feudal superstition.

Moving, because of words, the flame of civilization can continue.

Some people say that the ghosts weep because they are afraid that if people learn how to write and record the bad things they have done, future generations will always pass on the ugly things they have done. Some people also believe that after the writing comes out, people's minds are enlightened and they gradually have a sense of self, and it will be easier for people to have conflicts with each other, and the whole world may not be as peaceful as ever, and even the ghosts will not be at peace, so the ghosts will cry sadly at night. ”

There is a saying that it is better to hear the ghost cry, not to listen to the ghost laugh, after Cangjie made the word, human civilization was able to record, the ghost will cry is worried that their bad things will be recorded, in fact, the ghost does not exist, the use of the ghost will cry saying, just to more deeply reveal the meaning of Cangjie word.

After Cangjie made the characters, the ghosts wept because they were afraid that the bad things they did would be recorded in writing, and future generations would always know the bad things they had done.

I think that the crying of ancient ghosts who were ignorant at that time was probably an illusion, but it may have been due to the appearance of writing, which caused some mechanism to be suppressed.

Because the characters created by Cangjie are the Chinese culture that can be continued and inherited in the form of words, and there is a form that can be used for recording, which is of great significance for the inheritance and development of culture.

Cangjie made people bid farewell to the era of "knotted rope notes", and there are records such as "knotted rope notes" and "Qimu Weiwen" in ancient Chinese books, which are commonly used methods in early memorization, but unfortunately these materials cannot be preserved for a long time, so the chronicles at that time can no longer be known.

The birth of Chinese characters is not the work of one person, but the result of the long-term accumulation and development of the ancestors. Modern archaeology has discovered oracle bone inscriptions from the Shang Dynasty more than 3,600 years ago, pottery inscriptions from about 4,000 to 7,000 years ago, and tortoise bone inscriptions with the nature of writing from about 7,000 to 10,000 years ago. The legend of Cangjie's character making that has been handed down shows that Cangjie should have made a particularly significant contribution to the development of Chinese characters, and he may have been the master of sorting out Chinese characters.
