The Spiritual Attainment of Minghe

Chapter 173: Shen Nong tasted hundreds of herbs

Views:

At this time, a strange beast came pulling a chariot. This strange beast was the one that had been brought here for Fu Xi.

Fuxi, the dragon and horse of Hetu Luoshu, got on the horse and looked at Shennong beside him and said: "Imperial brother, please do well."

Governing the human race, I will wait for you in the Holy Land. "Having said that, Fuxi returned to the Holy Land of Human Race inheritance together with the fourth ancestor of the human race.

Now Fuxi is already a master at the pinnacle of quasi-sage. Although he has restored the memory of his previous life, this cultivation level is not obtained by him after all. Moreover, he was a demon in his previous life and a human in this life. The skills of his previous life cannot be used in this life. However, He is now quite interested in the martial arts of the human race, and he has the merits of the Human Emperor, so it is perfect for him to practice the golden body of martial arts.

After Fuxi left, the human race officially transitioned from the era of Fuxi to the era of Shennong. After the Shennong succeeded to the throne, he still did not change his past diligent style. He also did everything for the human race himself without any misconduct. Just like the old saying, It is difficult to start a business, and even harder to keep it. The Shennong family is as usual, which makes the leaders of all ethnic groups feel relieved.

After Shennong succeeded to the throne, the first major thing was to comprehensively promote the cultivation of grains. Although the human race had begun to plant grains before, it was only limited to the tribe where Shennong sat and some nearby tribes, and had not really spread among the human race. It spread completely, and many people in the tribe had little knowledge of the cultivation of grains.

In order to facilitate the dissemination of the methods of growing grains, Shennong specially invited intelligent people from various tribes of the human race to personally demonstrate, together with Chen Du, how to grow grains and some of the problems that would be encountered during the planting process. This approach of Shennong also allowed The cultivation of grains quickly spread among the human race, and for a while, the Shennong family's prestige among the human race greatly increased.

With enough food, the human race once again entered a period of rapid development. Food shortage is no longer a major problem restricting the development of the human race. However, as more and more wasteland is reclaimed, food becomes more and more abundant. It gets to the point where I can’t finish it all, and even if I want to save it, I can’t keep it for long.

Shennong thought hard for a long time, but could not think of any good solution, so he asked his teacher Kong Xuan for advice. Kong Xuan had no idea about this. He just thought that his senior brother Liu'er used hundreds of fruits to make wine, so whether grains could also be used to make wine. Woolen cloth? Kong Xuan just said it casually, but the speaker had no intention, the listener had intention, but Shen Nong had something on his mind.

Shennong also tasted a little of the monkey wine brewed by his uncle (Liu Er). It was full of spiritual energy. After drinking it, he felt warm all over. If such wine could be brewed from grains, although there was no spiritual energy, the weather was good. Taking a sip when it's cold can drive away the coldness in the body, which is not bad. Thinking of this, Shennong immediately returned to the city and started experimenting.

As a result, it didn't take long for the human race to have more strange things like "wine". The human race began to learn to use excess grain to make wine. Because of the different materials and different brewing methods, the wine also became diversified. Because of Kong Xuan's words, Jiu appeared on the stage of the human race early.

But Shennong also knew that brewing wine could not completely solve the problem of excess food in the human race, so he also came up with a way to let people exchange the excess food for what they needed. This was the beginning of the transaction. The prototype also laid a certain foundation for the future commercial development of the human race.

As trading and brewing began to become popular among the humans, the problem of excess food among the humans was finally alleviated. However, gradually, Shennong also discovered other problems. When planting grains, some other weeds would always appear in the grains. , and even after some weeds are used, people will develop uncomfortable symptoms and even die.

After the Shennong family learned about this situation, they immediately summoned the wise people in the clan to discuss it. However, after discussing for a long time, they could not come up with a solution. In desperation, the Shennong family could only use the stupidest way to solve the problem. This matter is to taste the herbs one by one to identify their medicinal properties and toxicity, and then compile them into a book to spread the word to the whole clan, so as to avoid the occurrence of death from accidental ingestion.

Although his subjects tried to stop him in every possible way, Shennong was determined and resolutely embarked on the road of tasting herbs for the human race. Before leaving, Kong Xuan summoned Shennong and gave him some detoxifying elixirs just in case. This made Shennong very happy. With these antidote pills, Shennong believed that his wish to taste all kinds of herbs was more likely to come true.

Shen Nong walked in the wilderness and tasted all kinds of herbal buds he encountered. Although he was often poisoned, with Kong Xuan's antidote elixir, he was always safe. After each try, The Shennong family will record it so that it can be compiled into a book in the future and passed down to the human race and future generations.

But when the elixir given by Kong Xuan was used up, Shennong felt unbearable pain in his abdomen after eating a kind of grass that day. However, when he reached out to get the antidote, he found that the elixir was The medicine was long gone. When he was unconscious, all he thought about was the great cause of tasting all kinds of herbs for the human race. With this unwillingness, Shen Nong suddenly fainted.

Just when Shennong was about to die, a colorful brilliance flashed, and Kong Xuan appeared in front of Shennong out of thin air. Seeing Shennong's appearance, Kong Xuan took out a pill and stuffed it into Shennong's mouth. In a moment, Shennong's abdominal pain disappeared, and the heartbroken grass The poison has been cured.

When Shennong recovered and saw Kong Xuan standing aside, he knew that he had been saved by his teacher. He quickly got up and thanked his teacher Kong Xuan: "My disciple Shennong pays homage to the teacher. I am stupid and accidentally ate poisonous weeds. Thank you for saving my life."

Kong Xuan nodded and said: "You are my disciple, I will naturally save you, but you don't need to be polite, get up." After a pause, Kong Xuan asked: "Shen Nong, do you know that you Doing this will definitely bring you countless pain, and you may even lose your life. In the wild, there are countless spiritual roots of plants and trees, when will you be able to taste them all."

After hearing this, Shen Nong said seriously: "Teacher, my disciple is trying to identify hundreds of herbs for the human race. Even if I die, I will not regret it. Since there are countless plants and trees, I will taste them day by day. Day after day, I will eventually taste them all." At that time." After saying that, Shen Nong prostrated to the ground again and said: "It's just that I am afraid that I will die before I can complete this great cause, so I also ask the teacher to help me."

Kong Xuan looked at the determined Shennong, smiled slightly, helped Shennong up, took out an object and handed it to Shennong: "This whip is called Zhebian. It is the body of a dragon that your master used to unite many people." It is made from a genius earth treasure. If you use this whip to touch the plants, you can identify the medicinal properties of the herbs. If you have the help of this thing, you can also identify the herbs."

Shennong was overjoyed and stepped forward to take the ocher whip and put it in his hand to look at it. He was very happy. When Kong Xuan saw this, he smiled and shook his head and said, "In this case, you can continue your great career and become a teacher." After that, he handed over some antidote pills to Shennong, and then drove away in the clouds. Shennong kept looking at Kong Xuan until he disappeared into the sea of clouds, and then he came back to his senses.
