"Why plough the land?"

The man with the bull's head mask, when he heard Nian You's continuous questioning, couldn't help but stop what he was doing, explained a few words to those people, and then turned around, wiped the dirt on his hands, respectfully bowed to Nianshen, and said: "The master is probably from out of town, I don't seem to have seen you before."

Seeing that person seemed to be very polite, and also showed special respect for himself, he also felt a little embarrassed that year, so he also learned from that person, and returned the salute, saying: "My name is Nian, and I came from a far away sea, and when I saw you plowing the land here, I was curious for a while, and I may have been disturbed." “

"It's okay, it's a guest from afar, and the guest officer has invited it." The man with the mask, making a gesture of please, walked up and carried a basket made of wicker woven on the shore of the field, which seemed to have some miscellaneous plants, some of which seemed to be flowers and plants, and he was even more curious that year, and could not help asking: "Do you have nothing to do, and usually pick some flowers and plants to play, or just to turn over the fresh land to pass the time?" “

The man with the mask, after listening to Nian's questioning, couldn't help but smile and said: "The guest officer is an outsider, he may not understand the situation of our tribe, let me tell you the truth, I am the big leader of this tribe, and everyone respectfully calls me Emperor Yan." “

"Ao, you are Emperor Yan, in fact, as soon as I saw you wearing this bull head mask, I thought that you might be Emperor Yan, I have long heard Nuwa Niangniang talk about you and Chiyou, you are the second group of people created by Nuwa Niangniang. But why do you want to wear such a bull head mask, so can you take it off? “

The Yan Emperor seemed to have a red face, and said a little embarrassedly: "I can't hide it, I was born with this look, a cow head and a human body, probably this is also to distinguish the difference between me and everyone, as long as everyone sees my appearance, they say that they feel majestic and afraid in their hearts, in fact, I don't want to be any different from everyone, I just want to be happy with everyone, love each other, help each other, eat and drink, and live a small life in peace and contentment." “

"Good food, good drink, peace and stability, so are you living this life now?" That year was also the first time I heard that some people wanted to live this kind of day, and I didn't know what this day of peace and stability was like, so I asked.

"Come with me, old man, and I'll take you to see the life of our tribe." Although Emperor Yan said that his appearance was peculiar, his speech and demeanor were very gentle, which made Nian feel very cordial, so he was not polite, so he generously accepted the invitation.

The two of them talked along the way, first talking about life, that Emperor Yan said, I don't know what's going on, when they have consciousness, they know that they are people, this is the difference with other animals, but what they have in common with animals is that after a while, they will also feel rumbling in their stomachs, if they don't eat, they will have no strength, at first they eat everything, leaves, grass, roots, fish and shrimp, and even some beast meat, but he felt that those things were not delicious, so he thought of a way, Put these things on the fire and roast them to eat, and when they found that the things made by this method were particularly delicious and fragrant, they taught this technique to everyone, and everyone was very happy, and they all thought that I was very smart, so they called me Emperor Yan and elected me to be the leader of this tribe, so our tribe is called the Yandi tribe.

Now I have found that there are many crops that will take root and sprout and bear fruit at a certain time, and after a while, their fruits can make all kinds of delicious dishes, but this crop likes fresh land, so now I have invented this tool for cultivating the land, called plowing, of course, there are more auxiliary farm tools, and the crops grown are now wheat, soybeans, sorghum, of course, there will be more brands and types in the future, that Emperor Yan not only said very happily, but also seemed to be very confident, That year couldn't help but feel funny, so he asked; "You are indeed smart, and you can even make inventions, and that research will probably take you a lot of time."

The Yan Emperor also said with a smile: "Speaking of the invention of the Lei, in fact, it is very simple, you may not believe it, it is just an observation of my ordinary life and I thought of it, once I went to a mountain to collect medicine, and found that there was a wild boar with its mouth in the arch of the ground, not much bigger, it arched out a big piece, after I came back, I thought of it, and soon tried to make the first one, and then took it to the ground to try, it was really easy to use, and it was naturally popular." “

"Alas, what did you say about collecting medicine just now, what do you mean, I don't seem to have heard anyone talk about it before." It seemed that he was curious about everything that year, and he was probably still a rectum, asking whatever came to mind.

"Hehehe, this is also my observation of life summed up by the life experience, everything in heaven and earth, it seems to be mutually reinforcing, we people look smart and clever, as if omnipotent, but there will also be all kinds of problems, such as headache and brain fever, or sometimes back pain, but every time there is a disease, there is a herb that can restrain him, boil it with some water, and then as long as this soup is served, it will not be long before it can be cured. Or if you are bitten by some poisonous snake or beast, as long as you prescribe the right medicine, mash some herbs and apply them to the wound, and after a period of time, the medicine will also get rid of the disease."

"Hehehe, then how did you find and distinguish the effects of these herbs?" That year was really a bit incomprehensible, the world is so big, there are no surprises, the people who came out of the yellow mud can still get sick, and what makes Nian feel even more strange is that he can still use this kind of wild flowers and weeds to heal, the more he listens, the more he feels insightful, and he can't help but follow Emperor Yan all the way to the mansion of the big chief.

Said to be a mansion, in fact, it is just to build a thatched earthen house on the earthen platform, and the difference with others is that there is a circle of earthen walls around it, leaving a rectangular door in the middle, there is a bamboo fence to cover it, the Yan Emperor opened the bamboo fence to beckon Nian in, and invited him to sit on a small square bench, there is a larger small wooden table next to the small square bench, the Yan Emperor took a big bowl, scooped a bowl of water from a small water tank, and handed it to the Nian, probably this is the Yan Emperor's hospitality, just listen to the Yan Emperor said: "Today, please use the bowl I made with your own hands, taste the taste of the well water that is made by the method taught by the Yellow Emperor, and wait until tomorrow, I will take you to visit our market here, how about it?"
