Features: The development of the Shui ethnic group's society has gradually evolved on the basis of small-scale farming economy, with this economy nurturing and driving the development of Shui culture. For this reason, in Research on Shui Ethnic Culture in China, the ecological environment and agricultural culture of the Shui ethnic group are studied as important content. Among the spiritual and cultural classics derived from this agricultural culture, the Shui Book represents the essence of the Shui ethnic group's belief culture and is also a precious ancient cultural heritage left by the Shui ethnic group for the Chinese nation and world culture. In previous scholarly works, due to various reasons, the study and introduction of the Shui Book have not only been limited in scope but also insufficient in depth. The volume Ancient Shui Script and the Shui Book addresses these shortcomings. With the growing national emphasis on the of ethnic ancient texts and the need for rich cultural heritage to support tourism economies, the era of rescue, protection, organization, and development of the Shui Book has arrived. Dusan County and Libo County have established high-level Shui Book rescue and collection leading teams and have been working effectively.
