According to historical records, after the rise of the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan, the historians of the Yellow Emperor, Cang Xie and Ju Yong, were all inspired by the footprints of birds and animals. It also concentrated the wisdom of the working people and worked hard for decades to collect, sort out, popularize and use the hieroglyphics and symbols of our ancestors. Although these knots are different in size and shape, they are difficult to identify because of their age and depth.
Later, Cang Xie looked up at the ring of Kuixing, overlooking the texture of the turtle's back, the claw marks of birds and animals, the shape of mountains and rivers, and the fingerprints of the palm. After being inspired, he created hieroglyphics according to the shape of things.

Cang Xie's contribution;
Collect folk hieroglyphics extensively and create systematic hieroglyphics. In fact, this is only a blind worship of Cang Xie by the ancients, and it is also through the hype of modern scholars and historians that Cang Xie became the ancestor of the invention of Chinese characters. In fact, the history of Chinese characters was born thousands of years before flies.
In the splendid historical picture of the Chinese nation, Cang Xie is a figure between myth and legend. No matter from the perspective of mythology, ethnology or folklore, he is an ancient saint, known in history as "Long Yan Si Mu" and "Sound with Ruide" (Lun Heng and Lu Chunqiu). His outstanding achievement lies in the creation of words to replace the politics of knotting ropes.
