The ancestor of all monsters in Shushan

Chapter 103 Classic of Mountains and Seas

Shi Feiyang left the capital and flew to Huaiqing Mansion. He first found Prince Zheng's Palace and then Zhu Zaiyu.

When Zhu Zaiyu was fifteen years old, his father was convicted. Logically speaking, he should have lived in resentment and sorrow. He looked older than his peers, but in fact he was strong and strong. He was in his sixties, and his hair was gray and meticulously groomed. , tied up with a wooden hairpin, wearing ordinary cloth, with a simplicity that reveals the fairy spirit that floats out of the world.

Shi Feiyang did not fall directly from the sky, but appeared three miles away and walked to the mansion to pay a visit. He was not very humble when facing the emperor, but he was very respectful to a "sage" like Zhu Zaiyu.

Zhu Zaiyu was also quite surprised to see him.

As early as a few days before Shi Feiyang's departure, the capital sent an urgent message saying that the emperor's newly named "Jiutian Yuanyang Zhenren" was coming to see him and asked him to prepare.

Zhu Zaiyu was very dissatisfied. His father had offended Emperor Jiajing and was convicted because he advised Emperor Jiajing not to favor Taoist priests too much and to pay more attention to state affairs. He was imprisoned for nearly twenty years. In his heart, he hated Taoist priests, especially those demons who used charlatanism and low-level deception to seduce the emperor.

But no matter how disgusted you are in your heart, you must show enough respect on the surface, otherwise it will be a slap in the emperor's face and bring about unreasonable disaster.

But after meeting him, he didn't expect Shi Feiyang to be such a young boy. More importantly, he saw that Shi Feiyang's demeanor was completely different from that of those Taoist priests in the past!
When the two met, their eyes met, and they both noticed that the other's aura was different from that of ordinary people. It was not that the other party knew magic, but that the soul was sublimated and displayed after comprehending the way of heaven!

Confucius met Lao Tzu and came back and said that I was like a dragon and unfathomable. This did not mean that Lao Tzu was powerful or eloquent, but that he felt how Lao Tzu made him feel.

It is obvious that Zhu Zaiyu does not know magic, but it is obvious that he is also a person who has understood the way of heaven. At the same time, he also felt the same temperament of enlightening the way of heaven from Shi Feiyang.

He invited Shi Feiyang into the house. Shi Feiyang was indeed different from those Taoist priests who had been lucky enough to enter the house in the past. He did not perform tricks or talk about ghosts and gods, but asked him for music lessons.

This is in line with Zhu Zaiyu's temperament. The two of them started from the time when they first determined the sound in ancient times. At first, they used the crane's wing bones and used tools to measure the shadow of the sun, and fixed holes on it. The sound was the sound of the natural earth, which is the name. Bone Flute, that is, bone flute. Later, it was mentioned that the twelve laws and Lu were used to determine the solar terms, the law and Lu were used to adjust Yang, and the three-point profit and loss method, etc. From this, the movement of the sun, moon and five stars was mentioned. Finally, we talked about the five-tone healing method and other things other than music in medicine.

Zhu Zaiyu read a lot of books and quoted from many sources. He had almost no blind spots in knowledge. Shi Feiyang did not dare to show off. The few things he learned in high school were not enough for Zhu Zaiyu. People quoted Zhang Zai from the Song Dynasty and classified the sound phenomenon as There are four types, namely air-rolled air, shaped rolled air, shaped rolled shaped, and air-rolled shaped. It is also said that when shooting, the sound is not in the arrow; when playing, the sound is not in the string. What the ears hear is all produced by Qi. Qi has the principle of producing sound, but it cannot produce it by itself. It is the sound caused by the rush of the husband...

Shi Feiyang finally took out the things from the Heavenly Book of Guangchengzi and talked about some things written by Huangdi at that time.

Zhu Zaiyu's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he also showed a thirst for knowledge. He asked questions repeatedly based on his understanding of the time. Some of them could be answered directly by Shi Feiyang, while others could not be answered immediately. He had to think for a while before he could explain. Some had no idea how to interpret it at all, so they compared it with other parts of the Heavenly Book. After repeated deliberation, they deciphered many scriptures and corrected some mistakes that they had taken for granted, making many things that they had not understood suddenly become clear. .

The two discussed each other, and the more they talked, the happier they became. Each had a deeper understanding of ancient things and the source of heaven.

Speaking of happiness, Zhu Zaiyu suddenly asked him to wait a moment and went into the room. He came out a short time later with a wooden box in his hand. After opening it, there was a volume of silk book in the box: "This is "The Classic of Mountains and Seas". The real person is an immortal." My dear, have you ever heard of this sutra?"

When Shi Feiyang opened "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", there were pictures and text on it, which was very different from what was circulated in later generations. It had more content. It was a large, thick scroll. In addition to various animals, there were also various plants, Ore, etc., the text introduction is tadpole text!
The front is all kinds of common animals and plants in the world, and the back is getting more and more strange. Even the gods Gun and Haiyang have pictures, which are exactly the same as the gods in his tripod and the ones he met in Beihai. There are also fairy grasses such as Queen Mother Grass, Purple River Grass, Poison Dragon Pearl, and Qingling Grass. There are many dragons in the genus, such as dragon, dragon, horned dragon, Yinglong...

He also found out that he, who changes his skin every thirty years, is named Kui Jiao. The time of skin change is indicated, and he transforms into a real dragon in three thousand years. The most annoying thing is that at the end it says: If you eat it, you won't have nightmares, you can cure hemorrhoids!

Damn it! Can taking Laozi cure hemorrhoids? ? ? My name is Kui Jiao, not Ma Yinglong!

Shi Feiyang really wanted to tear this section off!

He suddenly remembered the records in the original book about "The Classic of Mountains and Seas".

"The Classic of Mountains and Seas" has a total of three volumes and fifty-four chapters. If you get the first volume, you can become an earthly immortal. If you get the middle volume, you can extend your life. The one in Zhu Zaiyu's hand is the second volume, which specifically introduces the birds, beasts, insects, and fish from all over the world. Immortal grass is an elixir, and there is a refining method for refining the elixir.

At that time, there was a woodcutter on Mount Tai who obtained the middle and lower volumes. Qin Shihuang wanted to become immortal, so he sent people to search for places of immortality. He found the woodcutter and used the trick of the demon Shi Go to trick the woodcutter first. The imperial master treated him with courtesy and ordered him to present his Taoist scriptures to the emperor and his ministers. When the woodcutter refused, Shi Ge made a sneak attack, launched an ambush, trapped him in a trap, and suppressed him with a wordless monument prepared in advance.

The stele was hollow, with a restraining talisman inside. The woodcutter had mastered some spells, which couldn't be harmed by ordinary water, fire, or weapons, but Shi Ge's method could cure him.

Shi E killed the woodcutter, found the second volume in the woodcutter cave in Mount Tai, and brought it back to Qin Shihuang. After a while, Shi E left and disappeared.

Qin Shihuang couldn't understand the tadpole text on the second volume. Only Li Si could decipher it. After translating it, it turned out that it was all about flowers, birds, fish, insects, and some medicine names. Disappointed, he sent Xu Fu to go overseas to find the elixir for him. Later, Xu Fu also ran away with his books and people, and never came back to China again.

Shi Feiyang asked Zhu Zaiyu where he got this book. Zhu Zaiyu said: "When my late father was convicted, I read many books in the royal collection, including these two volumes of the Classic of Mountains and Seas."

"Two volumes?" Shi Feiyang's eyes lit up, "You mean you got two volumes of this book? Is this just one of them?"

Zhu Zaiyu nodded: "But it is full of tadpole inscriptions from ancient times, which is difficult to decipher. I have read a lot of classics over the years, and sent people to places where there are tadpole inscriptions to copy and compare them. A small part has been deciphered, only three tenths."

Shi Feiyang was so excited that he quickly asked him for advice. Zhu Zaiyu went back to the inner room, took out a book, and opened it. It was full of comparative translations of the Tadpole text and the modern text. Some of them had been deciphered by himself, and there were many. Those that have not been deciphered yet, and some are different from what I have deciphered.

He immediately picked out the different ones and verified them with Zhu Zaiyu. Some of them were he decoded wrong, and some were decoded wrong by Zhu Zaiyu.

Shi Feiyang was happy. With Zhu Zaiyu and others, his translation of the Heavenly Book of Guangchengzi was almost over half!
