After observing the layout of the entire altar of earth, what attracted Long Zi's eyes was still the two totem poles like Huabiao, Long Ziyan circled around the pillar, and looked carefully intently, and the three of them also carefully observed whether the totem poles below had been engraved with information related to the elixir of immortality.

Brother Kan searched around and around, but found no clues, "Little Dragon King, what did you find?" ”

Long Ziyan shook his head and said: "No, the size of the cow's head on the pillar is to show that the Shennong clan is the head of the cow and the meaning of future generations." The front of the totem pole two large reliefs, showing the exploits of Shennong's life, I thought it would be engraved with the information of Laojun's alchemy, which is engraved with the great achievements of Shennong's life, I am really stupid, this Shennong altar is to worship the Yan Emperor Shennong, how can there be something about Taishang Laojun. ”

According to the annals, the ancestor of China, Shennong, tasted the grass and other valleys, treated the people for the disease, created a precedent for Chinese medicine and agriculture, and made immortal contributions to the production and life of the Li people, and Shennongjia was the place where he tasted the herbs and collected medicine, in order to commemorate the great achievements of the ancestors of Shennong, let the descendants of Yan and Huang worship from generation to generation, and built an altar in this good feng shui land.

On the morning of the first birth of the sun, there are mountain people wrapped in a thick "Baotou" to light candles and burn incense in the altar of the earth, facing the rising sun, chanting the "Sun Sutra" to worship the sun god, the purple kite saw it, and forced the three people to drive to the altar of the earth to worship the Yan Emperor with a pious face, and the mouth also recited the words, "May the ancestors bless us without disease and disaster, always healthy and healthy, and a hundred years old is not too long." ”

As soon as the purple kite finished speaking, Longgang beside him said coldly: "If you are too greedy, God will punish, be careful and counterproductive." ”

"Not really!" Purple Kite looked at Longgang and smiled and said, "Because I am exchanging my life for your long life, God will not blame." ”

Longgang looked at the purple kite with the most beautiful smile in the world in surprise, and replied for a while: "Stupid, cherish your life first." ”

From the Temple of Earth to the Temple of Heaven to go through 243 steps, scoring five levels, from bottom to top, the first level is nine steps, called "Ming Nine"; The remaining four levels are seventy-two, sixty-three, fifty-four, and forty-five steps, all of which are multiples of nine, called "dark nine", and the design of this "ninety-five supreme" implies the supreme status of the Yandi Shennong.

No matter what, the four of Long Zijing also grew up in the mountains since childhood, and easily climbed the two hundred and forty-three steps, and came to the viewing platform in front of the statue of Shennong in the Temple of Heaven, and the Shennong altar standing between the verdant mountains has now become a holy place for the descendants of Yan and Huang at home and abroad to pay homage to their ancestors.

Looking up at the statue of Shennong, the head of the ox is human, the eyes are slightly closed, mighty and simple, as if quietly thinking about the universe, the statue does not have a base, the body rises from the ground, the blue sky above the head, the body is covered with colorful clouds, the statue of Shennong is 21 meters high, 35 meters wide, and the sum is 56 meters, symbolizing the prosperity of the 56 ethnic groups in China, and the meaning of the prosperity of the descendants of the Chinese people.

The four of them did not find any useful information, in order to hurry up and take a general look, they hurried to the top of Shennong, walking in the Shennongjia, as if there is no boundary between legend and reality, passing through a mountain peak, they heard a slightly older person telling the passing tourists that Shennong's had collected medicine here, and boiled out the first bowl of medicinal soup to cure the sick and save the dead with a clay pot, listening to his understatement and sonorous tone, as if Shennong's could walk down from the mountain at any time.

The mountain road is full of strange peaks and strange stones, bare forests, the cypress inserted stone horizontal cracks that meander and creep, the mountain peaks are endless, the peaks and peaks confront each other, the momentum is magnificent, the surrounding clouds turn over and the fog rolls up, the mountains are winding, the green waves are fierce, the blue waves are inclining, it is very spectacular.

After walking for a while, Brother Kan began to complain: "You guys go slowly, wait for me, let me take a breath, I'm almost tired!" ”

"You're tired after walking as far as you go, and you're still more than half the way to the top, so hurry up." Long Ziyan urged Brother Kan.

Brother Kan wiped his sweat and said helplessly: "I really came to climb the mountain with my heart, and I knew that I would sleep comfortably below." ”

"I'm still talking cool things there, so that you can eat so much every day and gain weight." Purple Kite walked over and pulled Brother Kan and said.

For Brother Kan, Long Ziyan also smiled helplessly and said: "Brother Kan, you didn't have the abdominal muscles that you are now now, and you really responded to my words, threesomes - there must be a fat man." ”

Brother Kan doesn't seem to be happy with others saying he's fat,

"Okay, you little dragon king, you dare to laugh at me, when I go back to practice my eight-pack abs, I will definitely repair you."

"You'd better catch up with me first, haha."

Seeing that Longgang had walked a long way, the purple kite hurriedly pulled Brother Kan to speed up his pace, "I see that there seems to be a place to rest in front of me, let's hurry up and rest." ”

Originally, Purple Kite just made up a random reason to let Brother Kan hurry up, but he didn't expect him to really say a good place, in this halfway up the mountain, there is a small-scale tea forest, a few simple small tables and a few small wooden chairs, a living from this, a kind smile of the old man brewing a pot of tea full of fragrant tea waiting for the customer.

Who would have thought that there would be a tea forest in these places, Brother Kan saw this as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, and instantly trotted all the way up, lying under the dense tea tree in the shade and asked the old man for a pot of tea, "I forgot to bring the water, and the thirsty people are dry." As soon as he took the water, he couldn't wait to pour a glass and put it in his mouth.

"Slow down......" The old man waved his hand and drank before he could speak.

"Poof!" Brother Kan spit out all the water, "Scald me, old man, how is this hot?" ”

"How can you make tea if the water is not hot?"

"Where did you get the hot water?"

"I burned it in a liquefied gas tank that I carried down the mountain."

"Carried from the bottom of the mountain?" Brother Kan was a little unconvinced, "Old man, how old are you?" ”

"Old man, I'm sixty-two years old."

As soon as he heard the old man say that he was already sixty-two, Brother Kan became respectful, "Grandpa, you are sixty-two years old, you can carry the liquefied gas tank from the bottom of the mountain here, I admire you so much, your strip (body) is quite solid (powerful), where (how) did you exercise?" ”

The old man laughed and said, "What's the matter (Hubei dialect: what), exercise?" It's just that I've moved a little more, I'm getting older, and I'm not in the mood for God anymore (no. ”

Long Ziyan also praised the old man on the side and said: "How can you still be in this kind of tea forest, look at your physique, but you are not old-hearted,"

A few people listened to the old man tell the origin of the tea garden while drinking tea: Emperor Yan Shennong's family found that tea could cure all kinds of poisons when he tasted herbs on Shennong's top, so he led his people to plant the first tea forest on this hillside.
