Chapter 19 The South China Classic
"Can't the roof leak?" Huang Xiao's heart tightened, thinking that it was windy and rainy outside, and the sutra room had not been repaired for a long time, so it was very possible.
So Huang Xiao hurriedly picked up the candle and ran to the second floor, holding the candle and lit the roof. With the dim candlelight, he found that it did not have the situation he imagined, which made Huang Xiao breathe a sigh of relief.
‘Cough cough cough~~’ Suddenly Huang Xiao came up and stirred up the dust in the room here, making him cough.
"So it's this bookshelves that are spread apart." Huang Xiao looked at the broken wooden boardwalks scattered all over the ground in front of him.
"It seems that we will clean up here tomorrow." Huang Xiao thought to himself.
Huang Xiao had cleaned the floor downstairs before, and he had never been here. The main reason Xuan Zhenzi said that the top has been abandoned for many years and there is nothing except a few dilapidated bookshelfs, so there is no need to clean it.
Originally, he wanted to clean up when he had time, but when he came to the scriptures, he focused almost all his attention on the scriptures and forgot about it for a moment.
"Forget it, this day is worse than a day, just clean it now!" Huang Xiao thought for a while.
"These bookshelfs have been in a while, and they have become edible. It's been enough to be broken up now." Huang Xiao looked at the scattered wood and said.
"No, the other bookshelfs may not be solid anymore. Let's dismantle them together, so as not to fall apart one day and make trouble. If they are dismantled, they can be used as firewood to cook."
So Huang Xiao carefully opened the remaining several old bookshelf one by one to avoid any disturbance and causing dust to stir up the room.
‘Bang~~’ Huang Xiao looked at it and found that a book actually fell on the ground.
"I didn't expect that there is a book that is stuck in this old bookshelves. Let's see what it is?" Huang Xiao picked up the book curiously and returned to the candle.
"The Southern China Sutra!" Huang Xiao looked at the title of the book on the cover and recited it. The cover of the book "The Southern China Sutra" has turned yellow. Although no one here will make these books more easily damaged, it can at least show that the book is farther away.
"It seems that it is also a Taoist scripture. Okay, let's see, what it is written, but it's so thin, it doesn't seem to be an important Taoist scripture, right?" Huang Xiao looked at the "Nanhua Sutra" in his hand and said.
Then he turned the South China Sutra and wanted to look at the back of the book, but Huang Xiao was surprised because he discovered that the South China Sutra was actually a broken version.
However, he didn't take it to heart. This book has been left here for many years, and it is obviously an unimportant scripture. If it were important, then Qingniu Temple would have already searched the entire scripture room. This scripture room is so big, and the "South China Sutra" has also been found on the bookshelf.
After opening the book, Chen Feng read out the words in the book: "Take the original as essence, the things as coarse, the accumulation as insufficient, and the gods alone in silence... It is built to be permanent and non-existent, and the master is based on the Taiyi, the weak and humble bottom as the surface, and emptiness does not destroy all things as the reality. This is the purpose of the King of Tao Sutras of the All Sutras. The principle of Tao is divided into non-existent, and has two sides. Tao is always non-existent, nameless and invisible, and is ahead of the heaven and earth ghosts and gods, and is the beginning of the heaven and earth, and the Tao always exists, and produces all things in the earth and has infinite uses. The mystery of Tao is also difficult for saints to understand. It is specially written by the "Nanhua Sutra" which is the general outline of the Tao Sutra!"
"This "Tao Sutra"?" Huang Xiao frowned. He was surprised. During this period, he had been exposed to many Taoist scriptures and scriptures, but he had never heard of any scriptures that could be called the King of All Sutras. Is this a big tone?
If this is true, then this book of "South China Sutra" is the general outline, and its preciousness can be imagined. Why has the Qingniu Temple not been well preserved?
Huang Xiao was very confused, but no matter how confused he was, he still flipped the book and continued reading.
"The Taoist scriptures are divided into three sutras and four auxiliary materials. The three sutras are: Yuanshi Tianzun's "Shangqing Sutra", Taishang Daojun's "Lingbao Sutra", Taishang Laojun's "Three Emperors Sutra". The three sutras are talismans, the principles of Tao, the Xuanzong of Taixu, and the first sutra of the Shangsheng."
Huang Xiao thought that this was the case. These three sutras seem to be the classics created by his ancestors by calling them the Three Qingshu. However, since they are named as the three highest Taoist leaders, this sutra is called the Taoist Scriptures. The Xuanzong of Taixu and the first sutra of the Supreme Saint are also well deserved.
"The four auxiliary parts are divided into: Taixuan, Taiping, Taiqing and Zheng. The corresponding classics are also called "Taixuan Sutra", "Taiping Sutra", "Taiqing Sutra" and "Zhengyi Sutra". Among them, "Taixuan Sutra" is the auxiliary part of "Shangqing Sutra", "Taiping Sutra" is the auxiliary part of "Lingbao Sutra", and "Taiqing Sutra" is the auxiliary part of "Three Emperors Sutra", and the Zhengyi Sutra is the auxiliary part of the three sutras and the three Tai."
Huang Xiao was a little puzzled by these mentioned scriptures in the book. He has read a lot of scriptures during this period, but he has never seen a single scripture mentioned above. Not to mention that he has not read it, even if he has not mentioned it.
Next, Huang Xiao found that the following were some books of "South China Sutra". When he saw the title of the first book, he exclaimed in surprise, shouting in surprise: ""Inner Chapter·Xiaoyaoyou"?"
So he hurriedly read it and saw that these catalogs were: "Inner Chapter·Theory of the Universal Things", "Inner Chapter·Health Master", "Inner Chapter·Human World", ... "External Chapter·Heaven and Earth", "External Chapter·Heaven and the Way", "External Chapter·Heaven and the Fortune", ... "Miscellaneous Chapter·Swords", "Miscellaneous Chapter·Lei Yugang", "Miscellaneous Chapter·World", "Miscellaneous Chapter·World", "Miscellaneous Chapter·World".
Huang Xiao counted it carefully, including seven inner chapters, fifteen outer chapters, and eleven miscellaneous chapters, a total of thirty-three chapters.
After reading these bibliography, Huang Xiao was a little stunned. He was shocked. He had never heard of the scriptures above, but he was familiar with many of the chapters in these bibliography and could even recite them. Of course, he was not very clear about some of them. However, what he could be sure of was that these thirty-three articles should be all the articles recorded in the Taoist work "Zhuangzi". How could the articles in "Zhuangzi" appear in the "South China Sutra"? Could it be that the two books were confused?
"By the way, Laozi and Zhuangzi's academic studies are originally the representative of Taoist doctrines, and the morality of Taoism evolved from Taoist doctrines, which makes sense." Huang Xiao thought to himself.
Seeing this, the originally mysterious "South China Sutra" has become more common in Huang Xiao's mind. It's just that it records some Taoist theories, but it's so mysterious at the beginning that it really shocked himself.
Huang Xiao continued to turn to the next page, and then smiled bitterly: "Sure enough, it's no different from what I've read before!"
I saw this page as the first article "Inner Chapter: Xiaoyaoyou": There is a fish in the north, whose name is Kun. Kun is so big that it is not known how many thousands of miles it has been transformed into a bird, which is called Peng. Peng is so angry that it is not known how many thousands of miles it has been. It flies in anger, and its wings are like clouds hanging from the sky. This is a bird, and it will move to the south. The southern part of the south is the Tianchi...
