Prehistoric: Lord of the Nine Heavens at the Beginning, the Mythical Kunpeng

Chapter 215 Shennong Rules the World

Shennong's noble moral character and selfless character won the respect and love of all races.

Under his governance, the human tribe was in good order.

And, with the development of agricultural technology.

People even learned to find the most suitable grains to grow.

With the existence of grains, the human race has a large amount of food surplus every year.

However, due to the lack of effective preservation methods, a lot of food is ultimately wasted.

In order to solve this problem, Shennong asked Taoist Duobao for advice and received valuable advice.

Under the guidance of Taoist Duobao, Shennong began to teach people how to catch wild beasts in the mountains and raise poultry.

In this way, the excess grain can not only feed these beasts.

When these animals grow up, people can also slaughter them for food.

This method not only makes full use of the remaining food, but also reduces the risk of people going up the mountain to hunt.

Over time, people found that six types of animals, including pigs, cows, horses, sheep, dogs, and chickens, were the most suitable for raising.

These six kinds of animals are collectively called "six animals".

The emergence of grains and livestock marks that human civilization has entered a new stage of agricultural development.

At this time, the fruits of human labor have begun to show surplus.

With the large-scale planting and harvest of grains and the success of livestock breeding.

People no longer lacked food, there was even a surplus.

However, not all tribes are suitable for raising livestock.

The human tribes of these tribes, faced with excess food, eventually had no choice but to throw it away and cause waste.

Faced with this situation, Shennong proposed a solution after careful consideration.

He held detailed discussions with the chiefs of various tribes and decided to build a market in Chendu.

The newly built market became a place for people to exchange food and goods.

People can bring here food they cannot consume in exchange for needed items or food.

This method of exchange not only reduces waste but also promotes the effective use of resources.

More importantly, it allows full communication and cooperation between different tribes.

One day, after handling government affairs for the day, Shennong finally had a chance to relax.

After this, Shennong did not choose to rest, but decided to walk out of the palace.

Go deep into the streets and alleys of Chendu to understand people's living conditions.

He hopes that in this way, problems in people's lives can be discovered and solved as early as possible.

Shen Nong strolled along the bustling streets, looking at the rich and colorful life of the human race, and couldn't help but feel very proud.

However, at this moment, he overheard the conversation between the two people in front of him.

One person sighed:

"Yesterday when my kids next door were out playing, they saw something that looked very much like food."

"He thought he could eat it, so he ate some."

"However, what people didn't expect was that the child died not long after eating."

Another person responded:

"It's a shame, but I've heard of times when some people aren't feeling well."

"I regained my health after eating a kind of grass."

"When others knew about it, they followed their example."

"In the end, instead of getting better, their condition actually lost their lives. It's really strange!"

After Shennong heard these words, he couldn't help but be very curious.

‘Why do some people die when they eat it, while others cure their illnesses after eating it? ’

In order to clarify this problem, Shennong decided to investigate the relevant situation in depth.

When Shennong paid attention to this matter and invested his energy.

He discovered that the matter was far more complicated than those two men had said.

Humans don't understand those flowers and plants, so they often have to resign themselves to fate after eating them by mistake. At the same time, Shennong also discovered that there were many people infected with diseases among the human race.

After they were injured and fell ill, since there was no effective treatment, they could only rely on their own constitution to recover slowly.

It is true that some people's symptoms are relieved after eating certain grasses by mistake.

But more humans died because of eating flowers and plants.

Shennong knew that he had to uncover this mystery, otherwise it would be difficult for him to understand his heart.

At the same time, he had a strong premonition.

As long as he can solve this mystery, he can achieve enlightenment like Fuxi!

Fulfill your responsibilities as the Emperor.

After Shennong thought deeply, he still could not find a satisfactory answer.

So, at this moment, he decided to ask his master, Taoist Duobao, for advice.

When Shennong met Taoist Duobao, he directly expressed his confusion:

"The birth, old age, illness and death of human beings seem to be God's will, but according to my observation."

"Many tribesmen contracted diseases for unknown reasons in their youth and died soon after."

"But there are other tribesmen who accidentally eat flowers and plants under such circumstances."

"The disease was relieved instead. Why?"

Although Taoist Duobao is not good at refining elixirs, he also knows the secrets involved.

So faced with Shennong's question, Taoist Duobao replied:

"The so-called disease is due to the weak constitution of the human race."

"If you don't step into the path of spiritual practice, you will be easily invaded by external evils and become sick."

"However, all things are mutually reinforcing and interfering with each other, precisely because the human race is weak."

"Therefore, the essence of plants and trees bred in ancient times can solve these diseases."

"It's just that there are two types of plant essences bred in the ancient world, which are divided into fairy grass and spiritual flowers and poisonous grass and poisonous flowers."

"The existence of the former can heal injuries and diseases in the body after taking it."

"As for the latter, once taken, instead of relieving injuries and diseases, it will cause the death of human beings."

Shennong continued to ask: "Master, is there no way to distinguish the essence of these two plants?"

Seeing this, Taoist Duobao replied helplessly:

"The method that works for me doesn't mean it's suitable for the human race."

"do you understand?"

When Shen Nong heard this, he also understood what his teacher, Taoist Duobao, meant.

Taoist Duobao is a cultivator, while most of the human race are ordinary people.

Naturally, what is suitable for Taoist Duobao may not necessarily be suitable for the human race.

Therefore, Shennong knew that if he wanted to figure out the connection, he had to rely on his own strength to find the answer.

The method Shen Nong came up with was to try various plant essences.

Use your own body to tell whether they are poisonous or capable of curing diseases.

In order to be able to find a cure for all human diseases.

Shennong secretly made up his mind to taste every essence of plants and trees.

And record their characteristics and make a summary at that time.

In this way, the world can be informed and the human race can avoid accidentally eating it again.

Shennong returned to Chendu and explained his plan in detail to many ministers assisting him.

However, many ministers expressed opposition to Shennong's physical strength.

After all, Shennong is still inseparable from the management of human tribes.

However, Shennong was determined to leave, and he believed that these ministers were in his absence.

He was still able to manage the human tribe well, so Shennong decided to walk out of Chendu.
