That aura carrying the remnant soul of Ancestor Hong Yun and the destiny of Earth Emperor passed through the faint reincarnation and was directed to the southeast of Primordial World, a tribe named "Jiang River", which is surrounded by mountains and rivers.
On this day, Nvdeng, the wife of the Jiang River Tribe leader Shaodian, was working on a hillside in the wild when she suddenly saw colorful auspicious clouds gathering in the sky. There seemed to be a red stream of light falling from the clouds and sinking into her body.
Nvdeng I suddenly felt warm all over my body and had a strange fragrance. After returning home, I felt pregnant. This incident was quite Divine Mark, and it quickly spread among the tribe.
She has been pregnant for twelve years, far beyond ordinary people, and everyone in the tribe said that this child must be extraordinary.
On the day of delivery, the sky was clear but there was the sound of thunder, there were shadows of auspicious animals wandering outside the delivery room, sweet springs gushed from the ground, the surrounding vegetation blossomed and bore fruit in an instant, and the fragrance lingered for days.
When the baby was born, he neither cried nor fussed. His eyes were clear and lively, and there was a faint red cloud birthmark on his chest. He could talk in three days and walk in five days. He was extremely intelligent.
Shaodian named it "Shinian", which means perseverance and longevity.
Because he was surrounded by lush vegetation and frequent visions when he was born, people in the tribe also respectfully called him "Shennong".
Jiang River Tribe reported the birth vision of Shennong step by step.
At this time, Human Race was no longer as ignorant as before. Fuxi's deeds of performing gossip and determining human relations were widely circulated. Everyone knew that those who were born with visions were probably sages who led Human Race forward like the emperor Fuxi.
The news finally reached Feng Gun Tribe and reached the ears of Fuxi.
"Beside Jiang River, Shennong came to the world, the grass and trees were auspicious, and the ground was filled with sweet springs..."
Fuxi tapped his knuckles on the table, the shadows of the Eight Diagrams were flowing in his eyes, and he was deducing the secrets. He felt that the chaos was full of vitality and heavy earthly virtue, which was closely connected with Human Race's future destiny.
"Sure enough... a new fire has been ignited."
He did not take action immediately, but quietly separated out a ray of Divine Sense and watched the growth of the Jiang River Tribe's child named Shennong from a distance.
Shennong lives up to his name and vision, and has shown intelligence and kindness far beyond ordinary people since he was a child.
He doesn't like children's play, but he is full of desire to explore the surrounding flowers, trees, birds and animals. He can clearly distinguish which plants are sweet and edible, and which ones are bitter and poisonous. He can even judge which crops are suitable for planting by observing the color and humidity of the land.
When he got a little older, he began to try to collect grass seeds found in the wild that were good-tasting and easy to fill the stomach. He opened up a small piece of land near the tribe, imitating birds and animals to eat them, irrigating them with rainwater, and carefully cultivating them.
At first, the tribesmen were surprised and even a little confused, but when he successfully cultivated several grains with a yield far better than that collected in the wild, and relied on these grains to help the tribe tide over a small food shortage, everyone was impressed by him.
He didn't stop there. When he saw that his tribesmen were suffering from injuries and illnesses, they mostly relied on physical support or praying to gods, and the pain was so great that he traveled through mountains and rivers, tasted hundreds of herbs, and discerned the properties of medicines.
He once encountered seventy poisons in one day, and with his extraordinary physique and tenacity, he survived and found the corresponding antidote.
He recorded the shapes, habits, and efficacy of these herbs that could cure diseases and save people one by one, and taught them to his tribe.
As time goes by, the name Shennong is no longer limited to the Jiang River Tribe.
Many surrounding small settlements suffering from food shortages and diseases heard about his deeds and came to ask for advice.
Shennong refuses to refuse anyone who comes, and selflessly distributes the grain seeds he cultivates to everyone, teaches them farming methods, and imparts the knowledge of identifying herbs.
His benevolence and wisdom are like spring breeze and rain, nourishing more and more Human Race tribes, and their prestige is growing.
Divine Sense of Fuxi had a panoramic view of all this, and he was relieved and more and more sure. The path this son is taking, focusing on what the earth has given him, and solving Human Race's most fundamental survival and health problems is exactly the direction Human Race needs most at the moment!
On this day, Shennong was observing the growth of a newly discovered edible plant in the ridges of his own field, when he suddenly felt something and raised his head.
I saw a middle-aged man in linen clothes, with a deep and peaceful breath, and his eyes seemed to contain Star Dou Great Formation movement. I didn't know when he was standing on the edge of the field, looking at him with a smile.
Although he had never seen it before, Shennong felt an inexplicable kindness and respect in his heart, as if he had seen the embodiment of wisdom and the source of civilization.
He put down the tools in his hands and saluted respectfully.
"Boy Shennong, I have met an elder. I don't know where the elder came from. What advice can you give me?"
Fuxi looked at the young man with an honest face and clear and firm eyes in front of him, feeling the aura about him that was closely connected with the earth and exuding vitality and benevolence, and the last trace of doubt in his heart disappeared.
He walked to the edge of the field, picked up a handful of soil, and asked.
"Are you farming?"
"Yes."
Shennong nodded.
"The income from wild collection is limited and unstable. If we can understand the nature of the land and cultivate it on our own when the weather is right, the people of the tribe can avoid the worry of hunger."
"You tasted a hundred herbs to save people?"
"I can't bear to see my tribe members suffering from illness. All things in heaven and earth are interdependent and mutually reinforcing. There must be something to relieve suffering, but we haven't discovered it yet."
