When it comes to the exam, the four male and female graduate students were immediately excited because they were not the ones who were taking the exam. They were very happy to watch the fun. He He also urged: "Teacher Luo, don't let the water go!"

Wei Kang was worried that Teacher Luo would make the question too difficult, so that Zhang Zi'an could not come to Taiwan. At the same time, he also hoped that Zhang Zi'an could answer it correctly, which would be like a tiger to add wings to this trip to Egypt.

Teacher Luo smiled without saying a word, flipped through the books he brought, and finally stopped on one of the pages, pushed them in front of Zhang Zi'an, and said, "What does this picture mean?"

Not only Zhang Zi'an, but others, including Wei Kang, also surrounded him and watched with his neck.

Wei Kang took a breath and exclaimed: "This... this is Egyptian hieroglyph!"

That's right, this page in the book is a series of pictures, each of which is full of Egyptian hieroglyphs, and Teacher Luo pointed to a picture in the upper right corner.

Teacher Luo nodded, "When talking about ancient Egypt, we have to talk about ancient Egypt's writing and language. Words and language are the foundation of all civilizations. If you can understand the language of ancient Egypt, even if you only understand a little bit, you will probably not need to say anything else."

"This...is it a bit too difficult..." Wei Kang looked at Zhang Zian uneasyly.

Teacher Luo also looked at Zhang Zi'an, "What do you think? If you think it's a bit difficult, I can change it to another topic."

Zhang Zi'an stared at this picture in a daze.

First of all, the hieroglyphs in this picture are circled with frames, the frame is oval, and there is a base symmetrical left and right at the bottom, which looks like an elongated dressing mirror.

Inside the box, there is a right-angle triangle at the top, and the oblique edges of the triangle are twisted like steps.

Below the triangle is an animal lying on its head, tail and limbs. From the appearance, it looks like a lioness.

Below the lioness, there is an inverted U-shaped shape, with one end of the opening connected to a circle, which is somewhat like a fish hook.

Other symbols include two birds, feathers, squares, semicircles, and several symbols that are difficult to describe.

The four students made random guesses like a wild and guessed everything, and He He could get compliments from Gao Ke and Xiao Tianyu every time he guessed.

"How is it? Do you know what this picture means?"

After a moment, Teacher Luo asked with a smile.

"If I read it right..." Zhang Zi'an replied confidently: "This picture comes from the Rosetta Stone, which means Cleopatra."

"Cleopatra?" He He repeated, "Why did I hear this name...ah! Could it be Cleopatra?"

"No, the person on the stone tablet is Cleopatra I, and Cleopatra is VII, which is quite far from it." Zhang Zian corrected her without hesitation again.

Seeing that Zhang Zi'an's answer was so sure, Wei Kang couldn't help but feel happy and nervous, and asked Teacher Luo for his opinion with his eyes.

Teacher Luo was also surprised, "Have you seen the Rosetta Stone or have you learned ancient Egyptian writing?"

"Well... a friend is very interested in Egyptian writing, and I learned something from him," Zhang Zi'an replied vaguely.

"Oh, what else do you know about the hieroglyphs of ancient Egypt?" Teacher Luo asked. He couldn't believe that an ordinary person actually knew obscure hieroglyphs.

Zhang Zi'anroga thought, pointing to the picture and said: "The hieroglyphs of ancient Egypt are a combination of phonetic and meaning, the phonetic in front and the meaning behind; when writing, you can write from left to right, from right to left, or from top to bottom, or even from the middle to left, usually based on which side the faces of the human or animal in the text face; a sentence is usually the subject-object structure, which is exactly the opposite of the subject-object-predicate structure in Japanese, and is quite anti-human."

Don’t ask him how he learned Japanese, ask is a fun and educational experience.

Wei Kang and his four students were confused and could not judge right or wrong, but seeing Zhang Zi'an's calm expression, he probably wasn't blind.

Teacher Luo closed the book and smiled and said, "Okay, I can finish class early. I wish you all the best in this scientific examination! Also, remember to bring local local specialties back!"

As he said that, he waved goodbye regardless of Wei Kang's retention and left Wei Kang's office easily.

His actions have told them all.

"Xiao Zhang, when did you learn ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs?" Wei Kang couldn't help but feel excited and grabbed Zhang Zi'an's arm and asked.

Zhang Zi'an quietly broke his arm and said lightly: "It's not a question of 'learning' at all. I really understand a little. Since I knew I would go to Egypt with the scientific expedition team, I thought that I was idle anyway. You also know that my store has no business, so I used my spare time to read some books about ancient Egypt..."

"Look at them, they have already left the school gate, but they don't forget to use all their free time to study. This is to learn until they are old! You should learn more from them! Alas!"

While Wei Kang was happy, he did not forget to take the opportunity to teach his four disciples a lesson, especially Gao Ke, who was the least hardworking student.

Gao Ke smiled bitterly at Zhang Zi'an helplessly, hid behind Xiao Tianyu's generous body, and avoided the mentor's stabbing sight.

In fact, Zhang Zi'an's understanding of object characters is just a first-hand, and in the eyes of experts, he doesn't even count as an introduction. He did use his spare time to learn ancient Egyptian characters and languages, because there is a ready-made teacher in the store, but this teacher has a bad temper. If he read it wrong or admits it, he will roll his eyes and be contempt.

The first thing Fina taught him was the name Cleopatra, including pronunciation and writing, so he recognized the name in Teacher Luo's picture at a glance and pretended to be a little bit.

No matter how he explained that he was just a rough understanding, Wei Kang believed that this was just a humble word.

The four graduate students also looked at him with admiration. Except for Du Xuetao who really likes studying, the other three just want to get a graduate degree and find a job. Although they didn't say anything, they all added confidence in this trip to Egypt.

Even He He was the case. She hit several nails in succession and felt that it would be impossible to find fault if she continued to find fault, but instead damaged her image.

Only the respect won by strength can be convincing.

It is a good thing for them to have confidence, so Zhang Zian simply agreed and said nothing more. Anyway, after arriving in Egypt, if you really encounter problems involving ancient Egyptian characters, language, customs and knowledge, you can naturally ask Fina. It is a living dictionary and encyclopedia of ancient Egypt, and is unparalleled in the world.
