Chapter Two Hundred and Seventy-Three: Book Collection

The pen was put down and the book was finished, with five big characters written on the page: "The Journey of the Immortal in the Sea of ​​Clouds".

Yu Shiguang picked up the book and nodded with satisfaction.

This book can be regarded as the best work I have written after The Fairy Pair.

A dream under a candle, a journey into wonderland.

All kinds of magnificence, the jade capital in the sky, and the appearances of gods and humans are all in it.

The short story of a night in the fairy palace is naturally difficult to turn into a play. At the same time, the magnificence of the fairy palace and the divine world is even more difficult to be reflected on the stage.

However, Yu Shiguang still followed his past habits and wrote this unforgettable experience into a storybook.

Then he commissioned the bookstore to sell it so that the world would know this story.

Originally this move was nothing, just like the works of Yu Shiguang in the past.

People either take it seriously, or they just make it up, and in the end it just becomes a pastime and a source of conversation among mortals.

But Yu Shiguang actually wrote the first chapter and the first few hundred words of the Sutra of Merit and Virtue in Yun Hai Yuan Xian Ji, and now it was completely different.

This book, which was originally just a storybook, instantly took on a different color and became a book containing the principles of the Great Dao.

When the book store owner came to pick up the book, he was full of praise after reading it.

Although he didn't see anything unusual in the book, he could still tell that it was definitely a good book. Just like Yu Shiguang's previous works, he didn't have to worry about sales.

Yu Shiguang: "Excuse me, sir."

The other party replied: "It is our thanks to you that our book can be sold by this bookstore."

"The bookstore just released the news the day before yesterday, and people in the city were scrambling to place deposits, hoping to be the first to read it."

Yu Shiguang handed "Wandering in the Sea of ​​Clouds" to the owner of the bookstore and watched him drive away in a carriage.

Maybe he never thought that it would start right now, right now.

My book "The Journey to the Immortal in the Sea of ​​Clouds" will change the world.

————————————

Si Tianjian.

Deep in the peach grove, Old Taoist Lingxu followed the old style of his master Tao Xian and sat quietly under the peach blossoms.

The young disciple rushed in and knelt in front of the old Taoist Lingxu.

With a somewhat panicked look in his eyes, and an expression of disbelief and absurdity on his face, he placed a book in front of Master Lingxu.

"Master, my disciple saw a book on the street today."

"This book... this book..."

The young disciple stuttered for a long time and didn't know how to describe it. Finally he could only say: "I can't explain or confirm it. Please take a look at it, Master."

"To distinguish between true and false."

The old Taoist opened his eyes, raised his hand and the book fell into his palm.

When he saw the big characters "A Journey to the Immortals in the Sea of ​​Clouds" on the cover page, Old Master Lingxu already knew what kind of book it was.

Taoist Lingxu didn't even look at it and put it back into the hands of the young disciple.

He shook his head helplessly.

"You younger generations don't know how to read the annotations of the Taoist scriptures all day long, and you just like to read these illusory and fabricated things."

"As a disciple of the Taoist sect, you should practice diligently to achieve the right path."

The young disciple looked serious: "This book was written by Master Yu. It describes the scene a few days ago when one of them dreamed of being in the Heavenly Palace and receiving a banquet from Lord Kongchen in the Immortal Palace."

Old Taoist Lingxu didn't believe it even more. He, the Great Zhou Sitian Supervisor, had never been to the Heavenly Palace Fairyland, and so many Taoist masters in the world couldn't get it even though they longed for it.

How can you, a mortal who writes a storybook, go to the fairy palace?

"Master Yu? Which Master Yu?"

The disciple quickly replied: "It's Yu Shiguang Yu and everyone."

Old Taoist Lingxu paused for a moment and suddenly remembered this person: "That former gatekeeper of Yanding Prefecture, Yu Shuli who had a relationship with Mr. Dao?"

The disciple kept nodding: "Master is right, it is this person."

After hearing this, Taoist Lingxu immediately extended his hand silently, and the disciple quickly and obediently handed the book over.

The veteran opened the book he had just scoffed at and read each word carefully.

After reading the first half, I already had a confirmation in my mind.

"This is real?"

"The Dao Lord has indeed rebuilt the Kunlun Divine Realm, and our Dao Sect's ancestral court has reappeared in the world."

The disciple kneeling on the ground was a little anxious: "Master, the first step is not important."

"You continue to look down."

"This book "The Journey to the Immortal in the Sea of ​​Clouds" says that after being invited by the Tao Lord to enjoy the Immortal Banquet in the Immortal Palace, the rest of the group actually... actually copied it from a place in the upper world in front of a divine palace called Deyun Palace.

A Taoist scripture came down."

"This Taoist scripture has never been seen before, and it describes a practice method that is completely different from the way of ghosts and gods."

Old Taoist Lingxu raised his head and looked at his disciple in astonishment, then quickly browsed through it with a solemn expression.

The pages of the book were clattering, and the old Taoist finally saw the contents of the Merit Sutra that Yu Shiguang copied in front of the Deyun Palace in the upper realm.

When he read the first hundred words of the Merit Sutra, Lingxu Lao Tao felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

His face showed the disbelief of one of his own disciples, and it was also ridiculous and funny.

I just wondered how could something like this happen?

Although Yu Shiguang was well-informed and well-versed in Taoist scriptures, he was not proficient in spiritual practice after all.

The two Taoists present were different, and it was obvious at a glance.

This is not just a Taoist scripture. It is clearly a book that directly points to the practice of Taoism.

In the rest of his life, the light went to the heavenly palace in the fairyland and brought down the supreme Taoist scriptures written by the Taoist Lord and the methods of merit cultivation.

Without knowing it, I just thought that I had brought down an ordinary Taoist classic.

Old Taoist Lingxu suddenly stood up, as if his butt was on fire, and his whole body was restless, as if he had seen a ghost.

"This...this...this..."

"How dare this Yu Shiguang? How dare he?"

"Stealing secrets from heaven... He is stealing secrets from heaven!"

"This is stealing all the scriptures from the Immortal Palace."

After being so frightened that his whole body became cold, Old Dao Lingxu finally gradually recovered. Looking back on the cause and effect, he shook his head.

"How can the Tao Lord not know what a mere mortal does in the Immortal Palace?"

"The supreme treasure in our eyes may not be worth mentioning to Dao Lord, so just treat it as if you haven't seen it at all."

"It's even possible that Lord Dao used his hand to pass down this scripture."

Lingxu couldn't sit still anymore and looked at his disciple.

"Where is Yu Shiguang now?"

The disciple replied: "Now I live in the city."

Old Taoist Lingxu jumped up, and immediately all Si Tianjian disciples gathered in the lobby of the official office.

At the same time, the god of the city of Shenjing sent ghosts and gods out to search for traces of Yu Shiguang through the criss-crossing streets of Shenjing.

At this time, Old Taoist Lingxu was most afraid that there would be demons in the dark who would learn the news first and make some unwise moves.

Destroy the immortal garment with the Tao Te Ching copied on it or kill Yu Shiguang.

After a while, all kinds of ghosts and gods gathered around Yuzhai, and everything in the sky and the earth was sealed.

All the disciples of Si Tianjian fell into the street one after another, and the spirit of Si Tianjian turned into golden light and fell.

Old Taoist Lingxu came to the door in person and knocked on the door of Yu Shiguang's house.

When Yu Shiguang walked out of his house and saw the battle at the door, he was also shocked.

"Who are you?"

Old Taoist Lingxu stepped forward, saluted in person and spoke sincerely.

"Old Taoist Master Tianjian is in good spirits. I have taken the liberty to ask for a meeting today. I am acting in a hurry. I hope you will forgive me."

"I would like to ask you all, if you still have the Sutra of Merit and Virtue."

Yu Shiguang looked at the old Taoist in front of him and remembered that he had seen this man before in the palace.

He nodded immediately.

"We are in the house now. If Prisoner Lingxu wants to take a look, you can follow me in."

Yu Shiguang unfolded the robe filled with merit scriptures and wrote them word by word on the white background.

All Taoist disciples present knelt down, including Sitian Supervisor Zheng Lingxu.

This green scribe's gown seems to have become the celestial robe of an immortal saint and the decree of the Taoist Lord.

From then on, the Sutra of Merit and Virtue spread from the fairy palace in the upper realm and fell into the mortal world.

Years later.

Taoist sects, schools, clans, and noble families all over the world all talk about this sutra and regard it as a compulsory sutra for disciples of each family. As for the annotations of this sutra and the methods of practice derived from it.

It has become a treasure that cannot be passed down to other sects and aristocratic families, and is the foundation of their lives.

The first chapter of the Merit Sutra records through the obscure Taoist scriptures how to communicate with the Heavenly Book and Divine List through rituals and sacrifices, to observe one's own merits and to enter the ninth level of spiritual practice.
