Chapter 157
After he tasted one mountain of flowers and plants, he went to another mountain to taste them. He still climbed it with a wooden pole. I have tasted it for forty-nine days and traveled all over the mountains here. He tasted 365 kinds of herbs and wrote Shennong's materia medica Sutra. He asked his subjects to take it back and cure the people all over the world. When he tried to cut off intestines, he was unfortunately poisoned too deeply. Kunpeng appeared and saved him.
The holy master Kunpeng is enshrined in all major tribes of the human race. Shennong recognized the identity of Kunpeng at a glance and quickly said, "Shennong thanks the holy master for saving his life."
Kunpeng said: "you work hard for the survival of the Terran, which plays an important role in the future development of the Terran. I save your life, but also for the future development of the Terran. You don't need to thank, just remember the people."
When Kunpeng said this, he took out a small tripod and said to Shennong, "this tripod is refined by me with laurel and can be used for alchemy. You should know its properties when you taste all kinds of herbs. This tripod will be given to you so that it can be used for alchemy in the future."
Shennong bowed down to take the divine tripod and said, "thank you for the treasure given by the holy teacher. Shennong will remember your teaching."
Seeing Shennong's sincere face, Kunpeng was also very happy. Without saying anything, he got up and left. Shennong looked at Kunpeng's back and said nothing for a long time.
After tasting all kinds of herbs, Shennong found grain to satisfy hunger and herbs to cure diseases for the people and returned to the tribe. At this time, his name had spread all over the Honghuang people and attracted the attention of emperor Fu Xi. After some understanding, Fu Xi decided to pass on the throne to Shennong. Because Shennong was away, he had to wait until he came back to pass on the throne to Shennong.
As soon as Shennong returned to the tribe, Fuxi knew it. Fuxi personally came to Shennong's tribe. Shennong personally went out to meet the emperor when he saw the arrival of the emperor. Fu Xi said to Shennong, "Shennong has been running around for the life of the people of the human race. This is a great kindness. I have been in charge of the human race for decades. Now I should have achieved great merit and virtue. You are young and promising. You can be described as a dragon and Phoenix among people. I want to teach you the throne of the emperor. What do you think?"
Shennong couldn't help but stay on the spot when he heard Fu Xi's words. He didn't think that Fu Xi came here to pass on to him. After a long time, he returned to God and said, "the emperor has flattered him. What virtue and ability Shennong can be the emperor."
Fu Xi saw that Shennong could still be so rational in the face of such temptation. He recognized Shennong as the next emperor in his heart, so he said: "Shennong, you don't have to refuse. It's not easy to know the post of emperor. You should consider the people wholeheartedly, regardless of personal gains and losses. You have done a good job in this point. The post of emperor belongs to you."
Seeing Fu Xi's insistence, Shennong nodded and agreed to be the next emperor.
