Prehistoric: Lord of the Nine Heavens at the Beginning, the Mythical Kunpeng

Chapter 216 Shen Nong tastes hundreds of herbs

It was from this moment that Shennong embarked on his journey of tasting hundreds of herbs.

After Shennong left Chendu, he headed south.

Along the way, Shennong didn't encounter any plant essence that he had never seen before, so he tried the poison himself.

Shennong's innate magical powers have now become his right-hand man.

The essence of every plant and plant that enters Shen Nong's body.

Shennong can clearly identify whether it is poisonous and what its medicinal properties are.

For this reason, Taoist Duobao specially prepared two storage bags for Shennong.

From this, Shen Nong filled one storage bag with edible plant essences and the other with poisonous plant essences.

Even though Shennong had cultivation, he had to walk for such a long time.

His body was beginning to feel exhausted at this moment, but even so, Shennong still did not choose to stop.

Shen Nong clearly knew that humans needed a way to distinguish the essence of plants and trees.

As the current co-leader of the human race, he must also work hard to find a solution to the disease for the human race.

Time goes by, time flies.

It has been forty-nine years since Shennong left Chendu.

On this day, Shennong came to a place.

There are mountains one after another and canyons one after another.

The mountains were covered with all kinds of exotic flowers and plants that Shennong had never seen before.

From a long distance away, Shennong could smell the fragrance of these exotic flowers and plants.

After taking a closer look, Shen Nong couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw so many plant essences.

Shennong chose the tallest mountain.

This mountain peak is halfway embedded in the clouds, surrounded by knife-like cliffs on all sides.

Even though Shen Nong was a monk, he felt a little helpless in the face of this situation.

But he noticed that there were many golden monkeys on this mountain.

When climbing along the ancient vines and rotten wood, Shennong suddenly found inspiration.

Immediately, Shennong Valley began to cut down trees and cut canes.

Build a shelf against the cliff, one level a day.

Shennong's method was to use the surrounding materials to build a ladder that could be climbed.

In this way, Shennong was able to climb up the towering mountain.

From spring to summer, from autumn to winter, no matter it’s windy, rainy or snowy and icy.

Shennong never stopped for a moment.

After a year of hard work, the 360-story ladder was finally built, leading to the top of the mountain.

And this is also the origin of Shennongjia, which is well known in later generations.

After Shennong completed the ladder, he climbed up the ladder to the top of the mountain without stopping for a moment.

A few days later, he finally reached the top of the mountain, where he saw a beautiful scene with infinite scenery.

As the sun sets in the west, thousands of rays of light shine on the top of the mountain, adding a touch of brilliance to the grass and shining to the extreme.

Shennong watched all this happily.

Not long after, Shennong thought of the purpose of his coming, so he immediately made preparations.

Then start trying various herbs.

Although he understood that he might accidentally ingest some poisonous herbs and even suffer pain, he did not flinch.

Thanks to his innate magical powers, and Shennong's master Duobao Taoist just to be on the safe side.

Shennong was also given detoxifying elixir as a gift.

Otherwise, with Shennong's way of eating, he would have died long ago.

During the day, Shennong tried various herbs.

At night, he would light a bonfire and use the firelight to record in detail the herbs he had tasted during the day.

He carefully distinguished which plant essences were poisonous and wrote that the plant essences were non-toxic.

Those that are non-toxic can cure diseases, those that can satisfy hunger, etc. Shen Nong remembered every species and category clearly.

Gradually, as Shen Nong recorded more and more.

He also slowly discovered that different plant essences have their own unique five-element properties.

Even the five elements of roots, stems, branches, leaves and fruits of some plants and trees are different.

They both support and inhibit each other.

According to the principle of the five elements, those that are in harmony with each other can be used as medicine to treat diseases or regulate the body, while those that are in conflict with each other are poisons.

Shennong kept all this in mind.

It is precisely because of this that he left precious medical knowledge to future generations.

Decades passed quickly, and Shennong had almost tasted all the herbs around him.

It is precisely because of this that Shennong always puts himself in danger.

So much so that the elixir given by Taoist Duobao has long been used up.

On this day, Shennong discovered a small yellow flower that he had never seen before, which aroused his curiosity.

Immediately, Shennong put the grass blade into his mouth and chewed it slowly.

However, it didn't take long for him to feel very uncomfortable in his stomach.

At this moment, Shennong's innate ability seemed to have disappeared.

He could clearly feel that his intestines were being severed section by section.

Faced with this scene, Shennong was shocked.

Without the elixir, he used some herbs he knew before for treatment.

However, even if these herbs are consumed, the ultimate effect achieved is minimal.

And as time went by, the pain in Shennong's abdomen became more and more serious.

Consciousness gradually blurred.

However, there is no pill given by Taoist Duobao.

Shennong was helpless in the face of this situation.

Fortunately, Shen Nong was always followed by the guardians of the human race's holy land.

Precisely because they have been following Shennong, they were all moved by Shennong's spirit of tasting hundreds of herbs.

At this moment, they suddenly found that Shennong fell to the ground and kept rolling.

They knew that Shennong must have encountered an unprecedented crisis.

After all, they had never seen such a situation before.

They ignored other things and immediately used their spiritual senses to check Shennong's status.

With their abilities, they can help Shennong solve this problem as soon as possible.

However, this is not in line with the purpose of the human race's holy land.

Their mission is to prevent foreigners from murdering the co-owners. As for other things, they can let the human race develop.

It was precisely for this reason that they never appeared in front of Shennong.

Fortunately, just because they can't take action doesn't mean that others can't take action.

So one of them was ordered to go and ask Taoist Duobao for help.

This is a magnificent mountain peak with picturesque scenery and lush vegetation. It is the temporary residence of Taoist Duobao.

When Shen Nong accidentally ate Bronchus, Taoist Duobao felt something.

However, Shennong had experienced this situation many times before, so Taoist Duobao didn't pay too much attention to it.

However, at this moment, someone sent word to Taoist Duobao that Shennong's life was hanging by a thread.

Hearing this, Taoist Duobao didn't dare to be negligent even if he didn't know whether the matter was true or not.

Then he immediately got up and rushed to rescue him.

After all, if something happens to Shennong, not only will all the investment in Shennong be in vain.

Even he himself would suffer divine punishment because of his position as Imperial Master.
