In many areas of our country, mysterious picture writings of octagon appeared printed block of Hanshan Yu and Da Wenkou pottery also have the same picture writings. Some experts believe that they were the maps of rivers from legendary; Some believe that they showed the position of the rising sun in ancient timcs. Most scholars are sure that they have something to do with Yi Xue in ancient China. What on earth is it? Which Yi Xue docs it belong to? No reliable evidence to show this. I have been working on Shui Shu, a kind of word of Shui nationality. For four years, When translating volume Jin Xin Ba Gua, Wu Xin Fei Zhang, I found fhat these mysterious picture writings were from Tai Ji picture, including Shui shu, Lian Shan, Gui Zhang in ancient times, Only to prove that Lian Shan was probably Shui Shu.

③见徐松石:《泰族壮族粤族考》第79页,《僚壮人的倒移》列举了“李寿纵僚于蜀”;“广西泗城山僚黄豹、黄豸等割据贵州程番府地,而侵入西北邻省”;唐末五代时,楚王马殷由广西掳掠许多壮人分置湘省和黔省的东部”。
④如《元史·地理志》载:“唐南诏蒙氏兴,异牟寻破群蛮,尽掳其人以实云南东北,取其地”(群蛮中也包括傣族的先民)。《傣族简史简志合编》(初稿),第5页说:明清以来,葡萄牙、英国、法国侵略者不断支持缅甸、暹罗、越南统治者多次入侵德洪、西双版纳等地,连年战祸,迫使人民不得不往内地迁移,直达南盘江、金沙江流域。四川省民族研究所:《四川少数民族》说四川的傣族多来自云南,是明洪武年间景东土官刀佩、安伏威等随明军征讨帖木儿叛乱后,“改兵为民,婚娶耕种”而在那里定居的。另外,在会理、新安、普隆、江普、渡口等地的傣族则是二三百年间从云南景东等地逃荒来的。
