China's crossword puzzle originated from ancient folk songs, and was largely embodied in the ancient hieroglyphics-Oracle Bone Inscriptions, but the earliest crossword puzzle recorded in writing was the ballad of Han Dynasty. At that time, the traitor Dong Zhuo came to power, usurped political power, murdered the emperor, and destroyed loyalty, which led to a scuffle between princes, social fragmentation, devastation, displacement of the people, and destruction of their families. They express their love and hate through riddles, a special literary form. "Senecio, he is green, 10 days, not born" was a popular folk song at that time. It reproduces the tragic scene after the war trauma. This ballad is a crossword puzzle. The word "Senecio" can be spelled as "East" and the word "Ten Days Divination" can be spelled as "Zhuo". The ballad alludes to the word "Dong Zhuo", cursing him as a disaster, immortal (unborn)! Between the lines, it is full of people's resentment against traitors and their yearning for peace and stability.
