Shu Jing is a town located in the Fire Nation. Situated on a cliff above a river and waterfalls, and surrounded by beautiful mountains, this is one of the many small, peaceful villages that are tucked away throughout the Fire Nation islands.
Because of its secluded location and natural surroundings, Piandao decided it would be the perfect place to pursue his artistic interests.[1]
The village of Shu Jing is renowned because of the famous sword master Piandao who lives above the village in a large castle. This is also the village in which AvatarAang and his friends stopped to watch a meteor shower; when one meteorite landed in the grasslands, Aang, Katara and Toph used their bending to put out the fire the impact had ignited. Once in town, while the group had smoked sea slug for lunch, Sokka realized he didn't contribute much to the group. They went to a weapons store located in town, to "reinvigorate [Sokka's] battling" and cheer him up. After testing out a large variety of weapons, Sokka saw a sword made by Piandao. After this, he went to the sword master's posh dwelling and learned the way of the sword.[2]
Formerly the home of a Fire Nation nobleman, this castle sat unused and in disrepair for many years. Piandao cleaned, painted and landscaped it all himself, making sure all the elements were in perfect harmony. Perched high on a cliff overlooking the town, Piandao's castle is huge; it boasts sixteen bedrooms, two gardens, a sword-making foundry, and stables. The white lotus motif can be seen throughout the castle, including on the front door. Other objects of note include the lion turtle sculptures located in the rock garden.[2]
The weapons store, run by a shopkeeper, is the biggest vintage weapon store in the Fire Nation, and sells a wide variety of weapons, including but not limited to halberds, maces, jos, pikes, nunchuks, sickles, bladed staffs, clubs, scimitars, chains, glaives, monk's spades, guan daos, and naginatas.[2]

Actually, there's an ancient chinese documents compilation called "Shujing", which can be translated to "Classical History". It contains records of old chinese history, and some of the authentic texts in this compilation date back all the way to the 4th century B.C.
