Chapter 119: Shennong is inspired to find grains

Nudeng's expression was also very happy, and she hugged Shennong for a long time before putting it down. After a while, the female Denglian walked lightly to Xuandu's side, and gave a salute and said: "Thank you for your help", "It's okay" Xuandu still replied expressionlessly, from today on, Shennong will officially become a disciple of Xuandu!

After Xuandu accepted Shennong as a disciple, he did not live outside the tribe like Kong Xuan, but built a house next to Shennong's house and lived in it. Next, Xuandu began to teach Shennong, while teaching Shennong to cultivate, he transmitted the morality of Taoism to Shennong, and Shennong did not disappoint him, and his cultivation would make great progress every once in a while. Because Xuandu did not teach Shennong since he was a child, Shennong is talented and intelligent and survives in such a difficult environment, he will have his own ideas about many things, and naturally the two will inevitably have some disputes, but Xuandu is also Shennong's master, and the relationship between the two is still very good after getting along for a period of time, and these disputes just add a touch of fun to their ordinary life.

Many years have passed in the blink of an eye, Shennong has reached the age of weak crown, he has lived in the Lieshan tribe for twenty years, according to his observation, the main food of the people in the Lieshan tribe is the flesh and blood of various races, but if you want to get food, you must go out hunting, and every hunt will have several or even dozens of clansmen sacrificed because of this. If this goes on for a long time, the number of people in the tribe will be drastically reduced, and if they do not hunt, people will have no food to eat, and countless people will also fall as a result.

Shennong discovered this problem a long time ago, and then Shennong was thinking: Is there any way to get food without hunting? Although these flesh and blood can provide spiritual power for themselves and accelerate their cultivation, even if they don't eat it, they can also eat some spiritual fruits and spiritual grass to speed up their cultivation, of course, these are like flesh and blood, and they can't help him much, they can only be said to add up a lot.

This question has plagued Shennong for a long time, and Shennong has also asked Xuandu, and Xuandu has no choice but to figure out how to do it himself. On this day, Shennong was thinking and walking, perhaps thinking too much, walking and walking, and unconsciously walked out of the tribe, and when Shennong noticed it, he had already walked out of the tribe several miles away. Shennong patted his head lightly, chuckled in his heart, and was about to rush back to the tribe when the scene in front of him attracted him.

Not far away, a group of children were jumping and playing on several trees, holding some unknown fruit in their hands, and occasionally taking a bite of it, and they looked quite enjoyable. Shennong stepped forward and asked, "What do you have in your hands, and why do you eat it so easily?" Because Shennong's reputation has long spread throughout the Lieshan tribe, and Shennong is not unavoidable, the people of the Lieshan tribe know Shennong, even the children in front of him are no exception.

The children were not afraid of life, and when they saw that the person who came was Shennong, they said to him: "We don't know what this thing is, we picked it on a big tree, and accidentally ate it by chance, but I didn't expect it to be very delicious, sweet and sour, there is a lot of juice, do you want to eat one?"

It stands to reason that Shennong shouldn't have grabbed food with these children, but after hearing what they said, Shennong's eyes flashed and he couldn't wait to try it. Shennong took the fruit, and took a bite on it without being dirty, and then Shennong's expression quickly changed, and finally his face was full of joy. After eating this fruit, he learned that this fruit is not only delicious but also filling, you know, there are many such fruits, and with this fruit, there may be other unknown plants that can make people full.

Thinking of this, Shennong hurriedly rushed home, said goodbye to Xuandu and Nudeng, and left the Lieshan tribe with a bamboo basket on his back. Since then, a bamboo basket has appeared in various places of the human race...... Shennong walked while searching, he spent decades to walk through every piece of land of the human race, over countless mountains, over countless rivers, and finally Shennong after repeated comparisons and experiments selected the best five grains he found: wheat, millet, millet, rice, soybean, these five kinds of grains after Shennong's repeated comparison and experiment, not only can fill the stomach and its grains can be used as seeds for planting in the next year. As a result, people can get a constant supply of food as long as they work hard, and they no longer have to risk their lives to hunt.

Shennong immediately rushed back to the Lieshan tribe and wanted to inform the tribesmen about it. After returning to the tribe, Shennong immediately gathered the tribesmen and announced the matter to the people, after the people heard Shennong's words, their first reaction was not to believe it, but they knew that Shennong would not deceive them, and the people couldn't suppress the joy in their hearts and cheered happily, the cheers resounded in the sky, and Shennong saw that the people were so happy, and the joy on his face was even stronger.

Just when Shennong was so confident that he wanted to lead his people to plant grains, Shennong found that the tools in the tribe were too simple to grow grains.

"Is it in vain that I have worked so hard for so many years?" Shennong thought, "No, I will not give up! If there are no tools, then create tools, I will not be defeated so easily!" In this way, Shennong began to make some transformations in the tribe to some of the original tools used for production, and even he began to create tools. In just a few years, Shennong has improved all the tools used for production in the tribe.

During this period, Shennong also organized people to plant grains, but due to the incomplete tools and lack of experience, the results obtained were unsatisfactory - although some harvests could be obtained, but for the entire Lieshan tribe, it was a drop in the bucket, only enough for the people in the tribe to eat for a few days, and the only thing that could make Shennong happy was that although the grains were harvested less, they were popular among the tribes.

The birth of a new tool requires countless experiments, and Shennong, after countless failures, finally exchanged his unremitting efforts for the birth of new tools - hoes, axes, rakes and other tools, and the subsequent agricultural tools are improved according to them. In addition, Shennong also created pottery operas and cooking utensils to facilitate people's production and life.

Shennong not only solves people's food problems, but also greatly improves people's production and lifestyle, which can be said to have laid a foundation for future development. The name of Shennong has also been passed down through the ages, and it has been recorded in later generations: "The ancient people all ate beasts and poultry meat, as for Shennong, there were many people, and there were not enough birds and beasts. ”
