Chapter 188: Shennong tastes a hundred herbs
Spring to winter, alternating between cold and summer, in the blink of an eye is ten years, during the day Shennong tastes all kinds of flowers and plants, and at night by the light of the fire, the medicinal properties of various plants are recorded one by one on the animal skin, although there is a whip to help, you can identify whether the plant is poisonous, but even if you know that it is poisonous, Shennong has to taste, otherwise you can understand the medicinal properties of the poison, so as to launch the method of detoxification, fortunately, Shennong has the protection of heaven, and has a crystal belly, and you can know the medicinal properties of the poison in an instant, and you can always find a way to save before the poison dies.
Ten years, Shennong tasted countless flowers and plants, always in the crisis of life and death, although lucky not to die, but under the years of devastation, even if there is practice, it is also skinny, rickety, hunchbacked, gray hair, if it is not for a support of the idea of finding a way for the human race, I am afraid it has already been buried in the loess!
On this day, Shennong suddenly found a vine-like plant climbing on the tree, blooming a small yellow flower, the leaves will also shrink one by one, Shennong is very strange about this, so he picked some leaves and chewed in his mouth, who knows that this is a highly toxic herb, called the broken intestine grass, not waiting for Shennong to detoxify, then Shennong's vitality won seventy-seven eighty-eight, seeing a life whimper, dying in Huangquan.
I saw a flash of light, a person leaned over and picked up Shennong, and hurriedly put a red pill into Shennong's mouth, after a long time, Shennong's face slowly appeared a little bloody, and his life was saved, and that person was his teacher Duobao.
Duobao hugged Shennong to a big tree next to him, made him sit on the trunk of the tree, looked at the gray-haired aging face, and the scene of seeing Shennong for the first time appeared in Duobao's mind, and he lamented in his heart: Is this still the naughty boy at the beginning?
Duobao also thought about how difficult and dangerous his apprentice's trip would be, but he never thought that in just ten years, he would have become like this.
For a while, he was desolate and self-blaming, and while he felt pity for the miserable experience of his own apprentice, he was blaming himself for making his disciple almost die as a teacher. Between the changes in expression, it actually attracted the sense of heaven and man, and the surrounding aura gathered rapidly towards it.
Earlier, Duobao was the early stage of cultivation of the quasi-saint, practiced for many years, and had long been consummated, but now under the influence of the mind, it attracted the sense of heaven and man, but it was on the verge of beheading the corpse, and on Jinao Island, the Tongtian saint who was explaining the avenue to a group of disciples in the Biyou Palace stopped abruptly, stretched out his hand, and the Qingping sword behind him buzzed, instantly broke through the air, disappeared, and a group of disciples hurriedly asked, but the Tongtian saint was smiling and silent, and after the disciples calmed down, he continued to explain the avenue.
As for where Qingping Sword went, of course, it was to go to protect the Dharma for Duobao's corpse, you must know that at this moment, Duobao is in the wilderness, but if there is a little mistake, this opportunity will be missed, and at that time, I don't know when I will have this opportunity.
With the support of the Tongtian sage, Duobao is not affected by external objects, and he has long had the experience of beheading corpses, and soon under the gathering of aura, an old man in brown clothes appeared behind Duobao, with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and white hair like snow, which was transformed by Duobao's good corpse.
"Fellow Daoist, it's polite!" said the brown-clothed old man to Duobao.
Duobao turned around and bowed, and put the good corpse into the sea of eyebrows, but this was not the time to study the good corpse, and bowed to the Qingping sword in the air three times, and said, "Thank you Master for your protection!"
Seeing this, Duobao turned around again, looked at Shennong, and saw that he was still not awake, so he waited quietly beside him.
After about half a pillar of incense, Shennong woke up leisurely and saw his master looking at him, and muttered in the air: "Oh! Master is here? Huh, am I not dead?"
But Shennong had just woken up, and his mind was still a little unclear, and Duobao didn't say anything to explain when he saw this, and with a wave of his hand, he injected a fairy qi into Shennong's body to help Shennong recover quickly.
In an instant, Shennong came to his senses, and he also understood that it was his master who saved him, otherwise how could he be killed?
At that moment, Shennong was about to get up and kneel down to thank his master Duobao, but he was dragged by Duobao's spell and couldn't move.
"Okay, a little red tape is not necessary! how does you feel about your body, is there anything wrong?" said Duobao.
When the master said this, Shennong couldn't help it, and said with tears in his eyes: "The disciple has not thanked the master for saving his life, but let the master speak out and be concerned, the disciple... Disciple..."
Speaking of this, Shennong couldn't go on, and he couldn't cry anymore.
Looking at Shennong, who was crying like a child, Duobao was also very moved in his heart, and smiled again, and said: "Okay, dignified, but like a child, crying and crying, you are not too ashamed, hahaha!"
When Shennong heard this, he immediately stopped crying, his face was red, and he was silent.
Seeing this, thinking about the boy who was not afraid of the sky and the earth when he was nine years old, and then looking at the current Shennong, Duobao laughed even more.
Shennong is even more embarrassed here, but it also dissipates the pain in the hearts of the master and apprentice, but this incident is also an opportunity for Shennong to taste a hundred herbs, it's time to go back!
Duobao escorted Shennong back to Chendu, the ministers heard it, led the people to welcome Shennong's return, Duobao saw that there was no more of his own business, so he said goodbye and left, after a lot of wind and dust, Shennong locked himself in the house and did not come out, and concentrated on sorting out his income for many years.
Another year has passed, the earliest Chinese medicine classics officially came out, and then was compiled as "Shennong's Materia Medica", and because Shennong tasted the deeds of a hundred herbs, it was called "Shennong's Hundred Herbs", these are all later words, no need to mention.
With the introduction of Shennong's years of cultivation and alchemy into the human race, which greatly improved the medical level of the human race at that time, the population surged again, which is a merit that has been passed down through the ages, and it also marks that the day of Shennong's consummation is getting closer and closer.
But said that Shennong has a daughter, named Nuwa, her mother died because of the birth of it, the child has no mother since he was a child, but it is like a child who does not grow up, has been maintained at the age of seven, its heart is also like a child, even its teacher Duobao is also unable to, for this reason Duobao deliberately returned to Jinao Island, asked the way to rescue, but his teacher Tongtian only said four words: has its own fate! In the end, he can only resign himself to fate, but Shennong every time he thinks about it, he is ashamed of his deceased wife, so he is very doting on the girl, and even Duobao has passed on some cultivation methods for the girl.
Although Shennong created the study of traditional Chinese medicine, but still have to study carefully, I am afraid that there will be omissions, harm the world, and there is little time to accompany the girl, it just so happened that Duobao went out to visit friends, and did not return for many days, but the girl was bored and panicked, and the children were afraid of her, so naturally they could not play with them.
The summer is scorching, the weather is very hot and unbearable, the girl's mood is also irritable, and she suddenly has the meaning of playing in the water, but she feels that the ordinary rivers and lakes are extremely boring, and she happens to hear people talking about the water of the sea is extremely salty and bitter, and she can't quench her thirst.
But the girl is a child after all, and she doesn't dare to go without the permission of the adult, after all, Chen Du is far away from the sea, but after waiting for a few days, she saw that her father was busy all day long, ignoring herself, and her master Duobao had never returned.
A child is a child, think about it, do it, how will you consider the consequences, and say that the East China Sea is far away, but for the girl, it is not far away, and the method of shrinking the land into inches will reach the edge of the East China Sea in two or three days.
When the girl came to the East China Sea, she saw that the sea was magnificent, endless, and there was no river or lake that could be compared with it.
