Chapter 101 Jiuli Emperor Ku
Shennong sowed grains, shoveled grass and hoeed, and the human race no longer relied on fishing and hunting for a living, reducing many casualties. The human race began to enter the era of slash-and-burn farming, and food gradually became abundant.It's just that the human race walked in the mountains and often ate poisonous plants and fruits by mistake. Many died of illnesses because of this, and some ate them but were not poisoned. Instead, they felt energetic, and some diseases were even cured.

Seeing this, Shennong was very worried, so he made up his mind to taste the herbs and debate the properties of the medicines. If possible, he even wanted to use them to cure diseases for his tribe. Many plants and trees have been handed down from ancient times to cure diseases, but sometimes they are effective and sometimes they are not. Shennong decided Experiment by yourself and verify them one by one.

As soon as Shennong had an idea, the ocher whip and good fortune tripod that he had put aside trembled. Shennong was very surprised. Could it be that the second treasure given to him by the Taoist of the Five Elements was not prepared for this time? Take the second treasure to see Master Xuandu.

At this time, Xuandu was practicing not far from where Shennong lived, just like the Taoists of the Five Elements in the past. When he saw Shennong coming in, he knew that he was puzzled, and he couldn't help saying: "These two treasures are the ocher whip and the cauldron. The cauldron can be used to refine medicine, which is necessary for you to become enlightened." After finishing speaking, he sighed in his heart, the two treasures were not given to Shennong by himself, but this time they will be divided into a lot of merit.

Shennong asked some more questions, and then he withdrew. From then on, he began the trip of tasting hundreds of herbs. First, he used ocher whips to identify the properties of the herbs, and then tried them himself to verify that even if they were poisonous herbs, he would still taste them. Recording the properties of the medicine, tasting the herb like this, with seventy poisons a day, can be described as extremely painful. If it wasn't for being the emperor at this time, with the emperor's purple energy protecting his body, he would have died for a long time.

Shennong tasted all kinds of herbs, wrote Shennong's Herbal Classic, and at the same time used the Good Fortune Cauldron to refine medicine, which has been widely spread. Many prescriptions have begun to be promoted in the human race. The human race is grateful and respects Shennong even more.

This matter will not be discussed for the time being, besides, there are many tribes in the human race, among which the Xiong tribe and the Jiuli tribe are both powerful. At this time, two sages were born in these two tribes, one named Gongsun Xuanyuan and one named Gongsun Xuanyuan. It's called Emperor Ku.Xuanyuan is the son of Shaodian, the leader of the Xiong tribe. He could speak soon after he was born. By the age of 15, he knew everything about agriculture, military affairs and politics.His wife, Lei Zu, taught the people to raise silkworms and knit silk, and weaved silk to make clothes. Since then, they no longer only use animal fur for clothing.Xuanyuan himself, Linglun took bamboo from the valley to make flute pipes, set the five tones and twelve rhythms, and became famous for a while. After a few years, Shaodian was old and passed on to Xuanyuan.

Xuanyuan takes over the throne and vigorously develops agriculture in the Youxiong tribe. At the same time, he establishes the ancient country system, divides the wild and divides the border, eight families make one well, three wells make one neighbor, three neighbors make one friend, three friends make one mile, and five miles make one town , Shiyi is the capital, ten capitals are one division, ten divisions are prefectures, set up court offices, set up left and right supervisors, supervise in Wan Guo, set up three publics, three young men, four assistants, four historians, six prime ministers, and nine virtues (official names) ) A total of 120 official positions are managed.In this way, all the small tribes on the edge belonged.

Besides, Emperor Ku of the Jiuli tribe was born from the statue of the ancestral witch of Dijiang when the people of Jiuli tribe worshiped the ancestor witch, and he was transformed into the empress of Houtu. Xian, the people of Jiuli are all descendants of the witch clan, so they obeyed and raised this baby that appeared.The baby was able to speak in three months, and he called himself Emperor Ku. The people of Jiuli were greatly moved by the gods, and all worshiped them.

Emperor Ku was old, and he also vigorously developed agriculture, and used copper to make weapons, armor, flags, and helmets.The criminal law was enacted, so the Jiuli tribe lived and worked in peace and contentment, and there were few murders and thefts.Later Emperor Ku was 15 years old and took the position of chief of the Jiuli tribe. He made more efforts to govern, established city-states, opened gardens and gardens, planted fruits, trees and vegetables, planted mulberry and silkworms, raised animals and poultry, and carried out grazing.It also smelted copper, made coins, and promoted transactions, established many trading markets, and Jiuli's strength was flourishing.At the same time, the capital city "Li" was established, and Emperor Ku and the Jiuli tribe became famous because of this. Many small tribes with strong blood of the Wu tribe came to attach themselves one after another. He is called Yandi, Xuanyuan is called Huangdi, and Diku is called Wudi.Everyone in the human race knew that after Shennong proved his way, the position of co-lord of the world must fall on Xuanyuan and Diku, but who will get it in the end remains to be discussed.

"Feng Bo (Rain Master) has met the Wu Emperor."

From the Jiuli tribe, two people suddenly entered the capital palace to meet Emperor Ku.

Di Ku looked at the two great witches in front of him, and nodded with satisfaction, "Although you two have broken through to quasi-sage, but your strength is not stable, but you can cooperate with me in the governance of the human race, and you will gain some merit."

When the two of them heard this, they couldn't help but feel a little happy. They had tasted the sweetness of merit as early as the end of the Lich's calamity. Now seeing that Emperor Ku arranged for them to obtain merit, they were very moved.

"I would like to listen to Wu Emperor's arrangement." The two said in unison.

Di Ku said with a smile: "This matter should be very easy for you. You only need to spread the rain and keep my Jiuli tribe in good weather. When I prove the Tao, I will have my own merits."

After the two heard this, they stopped talking, and immediately hid themselves in the clouds, secretly regulating the wind and rain of the Jiuli tribe. The Jiuli tribe benefited from this, and their agricultural and food production doubled, and their strength became stronger.

In the Palace of Eight Views, Lao Tzu and Yuan Yuan frowned and calculated, but there was no reaction.

"Senior brother, I'm afraid I was deceived by someone this time." Yuan Yuan said.

Lao Tzu nodded, "It's just that there are two emperors born in the human race, but it's impossible to identify who the next emperor is."

"I don't want such an accident to happen to the third emperor. Two emperors appear at once, but I don't know what to do this time." Yuan Yuan said, looking a little anxious.

"Now that someone has deceived me, I don't know how to act. I just feel that the aura of Jiuli Chief Di Ku is somewhat familiar."

When Yuan Yuan was said this way, he couldn't help but feel a little bit, "Could this person be the next Emperor?"

"The heavenly secrets are chaotic, and I don't know. It's just that Di Ku is in the Jiuli tribe, so he may have been supported by the Wu tribe. If you ask your disciples to help you, I'm afraid you won't have much merit." Lao Tzu said lightly.

After hearing this, Yuanyuan frowned, and suddenly said: "The merit of Fuxi lies in the innate gossip, and the merit of Shennong lies in the "Shen Nong's Materia Medica". If my calculation is correct, the merit of the third emperor will be to unify the human race. Two emperors are born, whoever can unify will be the emperor."

After hearing this, Lao Tzu nodded in agreement, "If this is the case, the merits and virtues of this time will be far more than the previous two emperors. Junior brother can send disciples to accept Xuanyuan as a disciple. Since it is a unified human race, it must be killing and proving the way. , can pass on the method of their cultivation, and help them to prove the way.”

Yuan Yuan thought the same way, but he immediately worried: "If I send Guang Chengzi to help Xuanyuan, and Wu Clan to help Di Ku, this time I want to confront them, I'm afraid I won't be able to win."

Lao Tzu replied indifferently: "Xuandu is the teacher of Shennong, he can help Xuanyuan one or two, and he can also find Junior Brother Tongtian, who has many disciples and many of them are on the verge of being quasi-sages. I think I will not refuse these two beneficial things. "

After hearing this, Yuanyuan frowned again, "So, a lot of merit will be shared."

"Junior brother is ignorant. If Xuanyuan proves the Tao, the merits and virtues will be so great. As the teacher of the emperor, the merits and virtues obtained by Guang Chengzi may be able to directly enter the quasi-sage from the late stage of Da Luo Jinxian. It's fine, as long as Guangchengzi doesn't make too many mistakes, he will definitely get the most merit." Lao Tzu said.

After thinking for a long time in Yuanyuan's mind, it is best to agree with Lao Tzu's words, put down his face, and head towards Biyou Palace.

Let's talk about the two saints of the West, Tianlong Babu once again completed one, and changed its name to Mahayana Buddhism at the same time. Now that luck has stabilized a lot, the hearts of the two have become more active, and they can't help thinking about the human race.

"My Buddha, does the third emperor of the human race have any clues?" asked Zhunti Buddha's mother.

"Amitabha, this time the heavenly secrets are in chaos, I think they are being deceived by others, so I can't figure it out."

Zhunti Buddha continued to ask: "Then how should my Buddhism benefit the human race?"

"Xuanyuan is called the Yellow Emperor, and he is the ruler of Tude. You can send Buddhas and Bodhisattvas to help him." Amitabha replied calmly.

After thinking about it, Zhunti Buddha's mother understood the meaning of the Buddha. Di Ku came from the Jiuli tribe, and the Jiuli tribe also believed in ancestral witches. They were afraid that the West would not be able to interfere, so they had to support the Yellow Emperor and compete with Di Ku.
