How to summarize the story of Cang Xie Jujube?

Legend has it that Cang Xie has four eyes, big pupils and is very clever. One year, Cang Xie went hunting in the south and climbed a mountain. Suddenly, he saw a chinemys reevesii with many blue patterns on his back.

Cang Xie was surprised to see it, so he picked it up and studied it carefully. He looked around and found that the pattern on the turtle's back was meaningful. He believes that patterns can not only express meaning, but also everyone can use them to convey their feelings if a rule is set.

Cang Xie thought about it day and night, observed everywhere, and saw the distribution of stars in the sky, the appearance of mountains and rivers on the ground, the traces of birds, animals, insects and fish, the shapes of plants and tools, described and painted, created various symbols, and set the meaning represented by each symbol. According to his own mind, he pieced together several paragraphs with symbols and showed them to people. After his explanation, he also understood that Cang Xie called this symbol a word.

Word-building process:

Cang Xie is a historian of the Yellow Emperor. After the Yellow Emperor unified China, he felt that the knot method could not meet the requirements, so he ordered the historian Cang Xie to find a way to make Chinese characters. Then, Cang Xie built a house on the high platform on the south bank of Wei River, settled down and devoted himself to writing.

However, he thought hard for a long time and didn't say anything. As luck would have it, one day, while Cang Xie was thinking, he saw a phoenix flying in the sky with something in its mouth right in front of Cang Xie. Cang Xie picked it up and saw a hoofprint on it, but Cang Xie couldn't recognize it, so he asked a hunter who happened to come.

Cang Xie was encouraged by the hunter's words. He believes that everything has its own characteristics. If we can grasp the characteristics of things and draw images, everyone can know them. Isn't this a sentence? Since then, Cang Xie has carefully observed the characteristics of various things, such as the sun, moon, stars, clouds, mountains, rivers, lakes and oceans, as well as various animals and birds, and applied utensils, and drew graphics according to their characteristics, creating many hieroglyphs.
