After decocting it and having him drink it, the str...Those few days, the three of us had a blast in Yinchuan. We ate camel peak delicacies, bought brand-name clothes, and went shopping - we bought whatever we wanted! Xiaoxuan bought several handmade Hui ethnic clothes, Douzi bought a few bottles of very expensive goji berry medicinal wine. I asked Douzi, "You're so young, why are you buying this"
The little sprout giggled and said, “Ningxia goji berries are the best in the country. The shopkeeper who sold me this wine said each one is a king of goji berries, one for ten. I’m getting ready for my wedding!”

" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
There are two places that impressed me.
We played sandboarding at Tengger Desert, I don't know if it's still there. Sandboarding is when two or three people sit on a wooden board and slide down the sand dunes. It's very exciting.
Another place is the Northwest Film and Television Base. We went to play on that city wall, the same one where Zhizunbao and Zi Xia Fairy met in the movie Journey to the West.
After playing for a few days, I went back to see that Ba Tou was still studying the sheepskin map, so I asked: "Ba Tou, you've written so much on your paper, what have you figured out"
I shook my head and piled up ten or so sheets of white paper. "Too difficult," I said. "The day before yesterday, I went to the Yin Chuan Museum and copied a character from a sheepskin scroll. I asked a deputy researcher for help, but... he didn't recognize it either."
">
"Didn't even those from the specialized programs know" I was a little surprised. At places like this, many of the local museum researchers come from specialized programs and are all experts. They have a solid foundation in research on local history. Although Xi Xia script is very difficult to decipher, there should be some people who know it, right
"That's right," he sighed, "The researcher surnamed Ma shook his head after seeing my copied characters. He said it was a special kind of Xi Xia script, similar to palace writing, used only within the small circle of Partyuan noble clans. It's very difficult to translate now."
">
“Palace script Was it also made by the Xi Xia wild scholar, Eli Rongren” I knew that back then, this person called Eli Rongren created over 6000 Xi Xia characters.
He was talking when Douzi entered the room carrying a jug of wine.
"What are you guys talking about Try this Goji Berry King Wine I bought, it's great for your health!" Dòu Yázi chuckled and poured a small cup for Bǎ Tóu.
"Yun Feng, you little guy, try some too," Dou Zhai also poured me half a cup.
He relaxed his expression and took a small sip, saying "This is good wine. The medicinal flavor is quite strong."
"Look, your meaning is that the Xi Xia script on the sheepskin we can't read" I asked.
"There's no sign of progress for now," he put down his glass and said, "But the domestic literary and historical circles are full of talented people. Since Wild Li Rongren could create such a text back then, I believe someone today can translate it."
The topic turned to the person who created the Xi Xia script.
More than seven hundred years ago, Ye Li Rongren was a brilliant mind. At that time, when Emperor Yuanhao proclaimed himself emperor, Western Xia still used Chinese characters. Yuanhao had grand ambitions and wanted to make his mark, so he ordered the minister Ye Li Rongren to create a writing system unique to Western Xia.
Yeli Rongren, accompanied by a large group of scholars, worked day and night for over two years to compare and contrast Chinese characters. Finally, based on the foundation of Hanzi, he created Xi Xia script.
Yuanhao initially requested of him: "My dear, I hope we can elevate our own writing to a higher level, making it unique and unmistakable, so that people from the Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty at a glance can recognize that this is our Western Xia script.
"""
Yeli Rongren went bald to satisfy Yuanhao's request. In the end, the created script had many strokes and was difficult to write. If it were used today, a child using Xixia script to write their name would probably be scared just by looking at it.
Not only did Yelü Renzhi invent this widely used Xia script, but he also invented an additional type of Xia script for the nobility, with different character meanings and connotations. This could be considered a "pro" version of the Xia script.
Now nobody specializes in learning this stuff, it just looks like gibberish.
The next morning, "How's everything prepared, Yunfeng We've had enough fun. Let's go back to the Hutuer Department and give things to Ajie and them."
"Everything is ready, head. But that generator is a bit heavy."
"It's alright, I already told Mr. Shang. He agreed to lend us a few good camels."
If there's nothing else, go bring the camel back this afternoon. We'll leave tomorrow.
"
"
"Alright, oh, by the way, there's one more thing," I said, turning back as I reached the door, "about our stuff...."
He squinted and said, "Put them on."
"
We went to the camel farm and led back a few camels. Xiao Xuan was thoughtful; she bought a whole bunch of snacks for children at the supermarket, filling two burlap sacks. These are all gifts for Huote's children.
After resting for the night, we loaded up the generator, doll, snacks, and toys onto the camel in the morning. We set off around 9 am.
I was originally going to ask Guide Lao Zhang to come along, but he said it wasn't necessary. He should remember the route well enough, and the Hutu people are waiting for us too, so they probably won't be moving anytime soon.
I actually know what's going on, but I didn't ask for more details.arper in reality.At the risk of cutting my lips, I tried over ten times before finally managing to flip the gaou box upside down. I immediately bit down on the thin blade with my teeth.After cutting t...
