1.23

He replied, "That Cangjie piled up earth on this terrace to make a platform and observed the footprints of birds is not without basis. Moreover, regarding the traditions of Cangjie, people in this land rarely know their true origin. Some say he was a minister of the Yellow Emperor; others say he was an ancient king. The script based on bird footprints was merely one variant trajectory; to discuss its present usage here would be of no benefit, so we need not labour to expound it."
