He tasted wheat, rice, millet, and sorghum to satisfy hunger, so he asked his subjects to bring back the seeds and let the people of Li plant them, which became the five grains later. He tasted 365 kinds of herbs and wrote "Shennong's Materia Medica", asking his subjects to bring them back to cure the diseases of the people of the world. After Shennong tasted the herbs, he found the five grains that filled the hunger and the herbs for the people of Limin, and came to Huisheng Village, ready to go down the mountain to go back. When he looked around, the wooden frames that had been built all over the mountains were gone. It turned out that those wooden poles that had been erected took root on the ground, spit out buds in the rain, and grew into a vast forest sea over the years. Shennong was in a dilemma, and suddenly a group of white cranes flew in the sky, taking him and several subjects who were protecting him to the heavenly court. Since then, Huisheng Village has been full of fragrance all year round. In order to commemorate Shennong's achievements in tasting herbs and benefiting the world, the common people named this vast forest sea "Shennongjia". The Huisheng Village of Shennong's ascension to heaven was renamed "Liuxiang Village".

Version three

In ancient times, people ate weeds, drank raw water, ate wild fruits from trees, and ate small insects crawling on the ground, so they often got sick, poisoned, or injured. Shennong taught human beings how to sow grains and use their own labor to ensure that they had enough means of subsistence. Shennong is a loving god, he has the head of a cow, a human body, infinite strength, he often helps the poor people to farm, like an ox, hard work to serve mankind. Humans learned to farm with Shennong, and with enough food, they never had to worry about starvation. However, many people often get sick after they have eaten a full meal. Some people are sick and do not suffer well for a long time, and can only survive until they die. After Shennong knew about this kind of thing, he felt very anxious, he didn't believe in the witch doctor's divination, but he also had no cure for the disease. So he discussed with many people how to cure people's diseases and free them from their diseases. He thought of many methods, such as fire roasting and watering, sun exposure, freezing, etc., although the symptoms of certain diseases could be alleviated, but the effect was not ideal. One day, Shennong came to the Jingang area of Taiyuan, Shanxi, tasted the plants and trees, and found that the plants and trees had various tastes such as sweet and sour. He gave the bitter grass to the person who had a cough, and the person's cough was immediately relieved, and the sour smell of the grass was given to the person who had a sick stomach, and the person's stomach did not hurt.

Version IV

Original text: The people have diseases, unknown medicine stones, Emperor Yan (Shennong's) began the nourishment of plants and trees, observed its cold, warm, peaceful, and hot nature, distinguished its king, ministers, Zuo, and made righteousness, tasted one day and encountered seventy poisons, and the gods turned into them, so they made a document to heal the nation, and the medical Tao began from this.

Translation: (Antiquity) The ancestors were sick, but they had not yet invented medicine. Shennong began to taste the taste of the herbs, observed the medicinal properties of the herbs in cold, warm, flat and hot, and discerned the interrelationship between the herbs like a king, a minister, a minister, and an envoy. Seventy poisons were encountered in one day, and he miraculously dissolved them. Therefore, the medicinal properties were written down to treat the diseases of the people, and the pharmaceutical industry in China was born.

Shennong whip medicine

After Nuwa mended the sky, I don't know how many years later, in a stone cave in Lieshan, a child was born, which was Shennong's clan, and he became a tribal leader when he grew up. One day, Shennong went to a tribe near the mountains and forests, and saw that the wild beasts he had hunted were thrown everywhere. When I asked, I learned that there were many wild beasts in this area, and the meat of the beasts hunted was too large to eat. Again. He went to another tribe and saw that they were throwing away a large number of sorghum and millet. Emperor Yan felt that it was a pity. The locals smiled and said, "What's the pity, in a few days, the new grain will be ripe again!" (This is the three crops of grain harvested in the south a year)

After coming back, Shennong thought about these two things all day long. While he was thinking, a group of children suddenly walked in noisily. He asked the children why they were arguing. The children quarreled and told him that one of them had two bows, and one had two arrows, and that the two had promised to exchange them, but then the one who had the bow repented, and so they quarreled. When Shennong heard this, he immediately opened his mind. He thought, isn't it possible for a tribe with a lot of meat to be exchanged with a tribe with a lot of grain? (This was in the early days of primitive society, when hundreds of thousands of tribes had fewer individuals, and later there were more tribal alliances, more people, more food, more selfishness of leaders, and more private ownership.) It can be seen that human wars from ancient times to the present day have been fought for food and the right to live, no matter how modern it is. He didn't have time to greet the children, and ran out with joy. He consulted with the chiefs of several tribes, and decided that every ten days, in the middle of the day, everyone would take their surplus things to a designated place (bazaar) and exchange them for what they needed. The people were all in favor and happily took their surplus and went to the designated place. At this time, people come and go, bustling, and very lively. They exchange with each other what they need. This was the beginning of bartering and Japan-China markets. It is also a kind of free trade in primitive society where people have a simple heart and a simple life, but unfortunately it was later changed by the robbers and robbers of the nomadic tribes, and in order to protect their tribes and territories, the state and class were born.

At that time, people didn't know what to do when they got sick, so they could only rely on their own physical strength to resist, and some had to wait for death. Shennong thought that there were strange flowers and plants in the garden of the Emperor of Heaven, and maybe they could cure diseases. So he decided to go to heaven. At that time, there were two paths to heaven: one from Kunlun Mountain, and the other from Duguang no Ye along a big tree called Jianmu. Shennong chose to ascend the wood from the capital to the heavens. He chose a large handful of Yao grass, and when he walked out of the garden, he met the Emperor of Heaven, who said that this Yao Cao could not cure many people's diseases, and gave him a magic whip, which can whip and identify the poisonous herbs, and Chinese herbal medicine is called from this. Shennong took this whip from the field of the capital to walk all the way to the whip, it is said that in the western part of Hubei, China, you can still find the place where Shennong's whip medicine can be found, and the mountain is called Shennongyuan.

One day, when he saw a kind of leaf, he happened to be thirsty, so he picked a few and put them in his mouth to chew. This chew really quenched his thirst, and Shennong pulled a few more chews. He felt something rubbing up and down his stomach. His stomach was transparent, and he saw Xiao Ye'er scrub his stomach clean. The discovery. made him greatly happy. He concluded that this little leaf could quench both thirst and detoxification, and he decided to change the whip medicine to taste the medicine, and if he encountered poison, he would use it to relieve him. He called Xiaoye "Cha" (the meaning of Cha Xun). Later generations read the vernacular and called it "tea". Shennong walked all the way like this, tasting herbs all the way. Returned to Lieshan. Shennong tasted herbs and was often poisoned, thanks to "Cha" who rescued him. It is said that there are 398,000 kinds of flowers, grasses, roots, and leaves that he has tasted. He was determined to taste all the grass.

On this day, he suddenly found a vine-like plant climbing on the tree, blooming with small yellow flowers, and the leaves would shrink one by one, so he was very strange, so he picked some leaves and put them in his mouth and chewed them. Who knew that this is a highly toxic herb, called Broken Intestine Grass. Shennong died like this. On the Shenpu Gang in Taiyuan, Shanxi, there is still a tripod of Shennong tasting medicine.

Legend has it that Emperor Yan Shennong was a virtuous emperor among the three emperors and five emperors in ancient times, and was the embodiment of the Chinese nation. Many historical books in China, such as "Zuo Chuan", "Book of Rites", "Book of Han", "Jingzhou Ji", "Imperial Century", "Notes on the Book of Water", "Chronicles of the Ancient Land", "Han and Tang Geographical Book Notes", "History of the Road", "Chronicles of the Unification of the Qing Dynasty", etc., all believe that the birthplace of Emperor Yan Shennong is Lishan, Lieshan or Lieshan, which is now Lishan Town, Suizhou City, Hubei Province. According to the records of Tongzhi in the Qing Dynasty, "there are Shennong Temple, Shennong Well, and Yandi Temple on the mountain." According to legend, the Shennong clan was born in the Shennong Cave in the middle of the fifth mountain of South Jiulie Mountain in Lishan Town. There is an ancient temple near Shennong Cave, which is dedicated to the statues of Fuxi, Shennong, and Xuanyuan. Lishan Town, Suizhou City, is only 200 kilometers away from Shennongjia Forest Area, the former is the hometown of Shennong, and the latter is the place where Shennong's long-term life is. So far, the folk customs, dialects, and legends about Shennong are similar in the two places. Both places are one of the birthplaces of Yanhuang culture.

There are many titles of Shennongjia, only the names collected by the author are Shenlong Mountain, Shennong Mountain, Shennongjia Mountain, Laojun Mountain, Nanshan, Jingshan, Xiong Mountain, Sun Mountain, Savage Mountain, Mucheng, Shenlong, Shenlongjia, Shennongjia, Forest Shelf, Bashan Old Forest, Nanshan Old Forest, Central Mountain, Central China Roof, Central China First Peak, Daba Mountain East Section, Daba Mountain Main Peak, 10,000 feet of the top and so on, as many as more than 20, some of which are borrowed names. However, the Twenty-five History, including the Records of the Historians, does not contain the name of Shennongjia, and there is no mention of Shennongjia in the Dictionary of Ancient and Modern Geographical Names of China, published by the Commercial Press in May 1931. In May 1970, the State Council officially approved the 24 communes, two medicinal herb farms and one farm in Fang County, Xingshan County and Badong County in northwest Hubei Province as the administrative area of Shennongjia Forest District, which is directly under the jurisdiction of the Hubei Provincial People's Government. Fang County, Xingshan County, Badong County is located, from the Three Emperors and Five Emperors to the Western Zhou Dynasty are respectively the Peng tribe Fang State, Hou Kui State, Lijun State land, in the spring and autumn belongs to the two countries of Lu, Yong and Kuizi, in 634 BC after the destruction of Kui to the Warring States period belongs to the Chu State. It can be seen that before the Spring and Autumn Period, the location of Shennongjia belonged to the marginal area between many countries, and was an isolated island in the "wild land";

The earliest name of Shennongjia was called "Bear Mountain". "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" clouds: "One hundred and fifty miles to the east, it is called Bear Mountain." There is a cave, a bear's cave, and there are people and gods who are constantly out of the world, and the summer starts and the winter closes...... Bear Mountain, Emperor also" (from Wang Nian Sun School). Some scholars believe that the "Bear Mountain" mentioned in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" is now Shennongjia in terms of name, place and direction (see the 1986 edition of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" by the Sichuan Academy of Social Sciences Press, "New Exploration>"). Interestingly, contemporary scientists believe that the bears found in Shennongjia are not only the most numerous, but also the most diverse, worthy of China's "bear kingdom". Among them, the "god man" is the "mountain ghost" in Qu Yuan's poem "Mountain Ghost", that is, the tall "wild man" of Shennongjia who is causing a sensation all over the world. "Xiongshan, Emperor Ye" means that Shennongjia is the holy land of ancient emperors, and this emperor should refer to Emperor Yan Shennong.
