Honghuang: Senior Brother of the Chan Sect, I am Guangchengzi

Chapter 223 The girl died in the disaster

Finding an antidote seems simple. As the saying goes, there is an antidote for every poison, so you just need to look for it near the poison. However, some antidotes may appear to be more poisonous than the poison, so it is naturally very difficult to distinguish them.

What's more, there are different antidotes for all kinds of poisons, and some antidotes may be poisonous. They must be taken with the corresponding poison to be harmless. It is extremely troublesome and complicated.

Moreover, there are tens of thousands of high mountains in the world, and naturally there are tens of thousands of miasma. Each kind of miasma is different. Some corrode the skin, and some corrode the flesh.

There are also some powerful miasma that can directly melt the soul. Naturally, it cannot be solved by one herb, but multiple herbs must be used together.

Therefore, if Shennong wanted to solve this problem, he would have to travel all over the mountains, taste all the herbs in the world, and experience the poisons and miasma firsthand, only then could he solve the problem.

But facing the difficulty of this method, Shennong was not afraid at all. Instead, he smiled and said, "I see. It seems that there is always a way out. God still left a ray of hope for us humans. It's just tasting hundreds of herbs. I am not afraid of this hardship and obstacle."

Seeing that Shennong was not sad but smiling, the great master Xuandu, who was originally worried about Shennong, could not help but wonder, "My disciple, don't you have any worries at all?"

Shen Nong asked in return: "Master, what is there to worry about? As the chief of the tribe, I am supported by everyone, so I must shed my last drop of blood and tears for the tribe.

Now that there is a way for me to solve the problem for my people, I am naturally very happy, so how can I be sad?

Just like Master's cultivation, would Master completely relax and spend the whole day singing and drinking just because there are many difficulties and obstacles in the future cultivation? No, Master will only focus on moving forward.

Master is not afraid of difficulties and obstacles ahead, but is afraid of having no way out. I, your disciple, feel the same way. Since there is a way out, I will naturally be happy and smile. Why should I be sad? "

Hearing that Shennong actually had such a will, Master Xuandu couldn't help but sigh: "Your responsibility far exceeds mine. I practice for myself, but you practice for the entire tribe."

But in the end, Master Xuandu decided to go on the journey with Shennong and accompany him to taste all kinds of herbs in the world.

Shennong was naturally very happy about this, so he returned to the tribe and announced that he would seek an antidote to the miasma for the tribe, so he would embark on a journey to taste hundreds of herbs, and all matters would be decided by the elders of the tribe.

Some ministers who were loyal to Shennong were horrified by this and tried to dissuade Shennong from taking the risk. Some even suggested that they could taste all the herbs in the world on Shennong's behalf.

However, Shennong had decided to do this personally, and the ministers could do nothing about it. So some of the ministers stayed in the Lieshan tribe, while the other ministers followed Shennong on the road to protect him if there was any danger on the way.

Shennong did not refuse this, but started looking for an antidote to the miasma from several mountains near the Lieshan tribe.

However, Master Xuandu suggested that Shennong should not limit his attention to the miasma. In addition to the miasma, there are also poisonous insects and other things in the deep mountains and old forests that threaten everyone's safety.

Some tribesmen would die without knowing why after accidentally eating poisonous plants, flowers and fruits because they did not know the causes. In the long run, this disaster would be no less severe than miasma.

Shennong was greatly inspired by this, so he no longer limited himself to looking for an antidote for miasma, but instead tasted the poisonous weeds immediately after hitting them with the ochre whip.

With the help of his own ox head, Shennong constantly ruminated on these poisonous herbs, which could temporarily reduce the toxicity. Although it was more painful, it could be considered a way to save his life.

Then, through its transparent belly, it can observe if there are any changes in its internal organs, and then it will know where the poisonous grass is targeting.

Shennong then used the ochre whip to find the antidote and successfully detoxified the patient.

The ministers who assisted on the side quickly recorded these changes, and then recorded the appearance of these poisonous plants and their toxicity in a booklet.

Even if Shennong did not find the corresponding antidote, Master Xuandu would take action in time and use the secret technique of golden elixir to save his life.

But if you often walk by the river, how can your shoes not get wet?

One day, Shennong accidentally ate a poisonous weed that looked ugly. Before he could regurgitate it to reduce the toxicity, some ministers saw his intestines break into pieces. Shennong fell to the ground, screaming in pain and rolling over.

Some ministers were well prepared for this and immediately poured some detoxifying medicine into Shennong's mouth, but Shennong vomited it all out.

The most peculiar thing was that the originally green medicine soup turned purple-black after entering the stomach and being spit out. The purple-black soup even emitted bursts of corrosive white smoke on the ground, which was simply terrifying.

This situation frightened the ministers so much that they were at a loss as to what to do. They had no choice but to pray to Master Xuandu to come forward and help Shennong overcome the crisis.

Master Xuandu naturally took this matter very seriously, but even if he used the secret technique of the golden elixir to refine the detoxifying golden elixir, he could not save Shennong's life. Suddenly he didn't know what to do.

"How could such a remote place produce a poison that even my Golden Elixir Secret Technique cannot cure?"

But no matter how unbelievable it was for Master Xuandu, this kind of thing happened and he had to solve it, otherwise he would be a failure as the Imperial Teacher.

In desperation, Master Xuandu had to use the talisman to inform Guangchengzi of the matter. After all, this was a matter of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, and he couldn't let the saint interfere, so he had to go find this powerful junior brother.

Guang Chengzi also took it very seriously after learning about it, and was also curious about the poisonous grass that even Master Xuandu could not deal with in those places. After all, as the founder of the Golden Elixir Dao, Master Xuandu's alchemy attainments were so high that I'm afraid he was only inferior to Laozi, the founder of the Alchemy Dao in the prehistoric world.

However, after joining forces with Tianhuo Taoist to explore the secrets of heaven, Guangchengzi also knew that this was a great calamity sent by heaven, a disaster sent down by heaven to test whether Shennong, the Emperor of Earth, was qualified to serve as the common leader of the human race.

So what Shennong ate might have been just ordinary poisonous herbs, but under the influence of natural disasters, they naturally became rare poisonous herbs in the prehistoric world.

No wonder even Master Xuandu couldn't cure the poison. I'm afraid only Laozi himself can cure it.

"But if this happens, there will definitely be another disaster in the future, and it will be more horrible than today's. There may even be some variables, such as a change in the choice of the Emperor of the Earth."

Guangchengzi frowned slightly. This disaster must be overcome now, otherwise it will be more difficult to overcome it in the future.

Moreover, as long as he does not cross over, this Emperor of Earth will never be able to serve as the leader of the human race.

However, he had no other good solution for the moment, so he had to send a message to the ancestor Pan Wang, asking the great god Hunyuan, who specialized in the art of poisonous insects, to go in person to stabilize Shennong's injuries, and also take this opportunity to spread the art of poisonous insects to the human race.

Although Nuwa promised Guangchengzi that he could enjoy 10% of the human race's fortune, it was not a permanent enjoyment but was conditional.

If Guangchengzi just sits there and eats nothing, just waiting for the food to run out, then sooner or later not even a trace of luck for the human race will be left.

Therefore, Guangchengzi naturally wanted to influence the human race more and leave his own mark on it. In this way, he could enjoy this fortune and honor forever.

One of the most useful strategies is the way of education. Guangchengzi is proficient in the great way of explaining the heaven, so he naturally knows how to use education to consolidate his own destiny, and spreading the teachings is the simplest one.

He also planned to spread the Wushan Way of the Wushan Goddess and the marriage way of the Wangfu Mountain people to the human race.

After all, he only has these three Hunyuan gods under his command, and only these three can help him.

When Patriarch Pan Wang received the order from Guangchengzi, he naturally did not dare to be careless and immediately went to the place where Shennong fainted to treat him.

With the help of the great god Hunyuan, who was best at handling poisonous insects, Shennong was able to stabilize his injuries, but his life was still hanging by a thread and it was difficult for him to recover.

Although this disaster was apparently caused by poison, it was actually a challenge from heaven, so Patriarch Pan Wang was helpless. After all, even if he could solve the poison, he could not solve the challenge from heaven.

But gradually, Shennong became more and more sober. Before, he could only stay awake for half an hour a day, and could only sit stiffly in one place, with only his fingers able to move slightly.

But less than half a month later, Shennong was able to stay awake for three or four hours a day and was able to walk around. Although his movements were slow, he was still fine.

Shennong was naturally very happy about this, and immediately went to thank Master Xuandu and Patriarch Panwang, thinking that it was with the help of these two immortals that he was able to recover.

But the expressions of these two people were very strange, especially the great master Xuandu. There was a bit of inexplicable sadness on his face, and there was a lot of pity in his eyes when he looked at Shennong.

"Shennong, I have some bad news to tell you. I hope you can accept this sadness." Master Xuandu said slowly.

Shen Nong was very surprised by this, but he still nodded and said, "Please tell me, Master, although Shen Nong's cultivation is weak, he is not so incapable of even this little responsibility."

Master Xuandu felt a little reluctant, but still said: "Your daughter, the little girl, is dead."

"what!"

Upon hearing the news, Shennong was struck by lightning. He spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground unconscious.

Even so, his face still revealed an irreconcilable sadness, which showed how heavy a blow this news was to him.

Unlike Emperor Fuxi, Shennong matured precociously, but he was not the reincarnation of a great god, so he naturally married and had children early. He loved his wife very much, and although he held a high status, he never took a concubine and only stayed with his own lover.

But Shennong's wife died of childbirth complications, leaving behind only a baby girl.

Shennong was very sad about this, so he named the baby girl Nvwa, which sounds like Nvwa at first glance. It is obvious that he wanted to use the luck of this human saint mother to protect his daughter.

Master Xuandu sighed again, waved his hand and placed Shennong on a stone bed, shook his head and said: "It's a pity that this heavenly disaster was passed on to the girl after all. She was fine, but ended up hurting her family.

The position of the co-leader of the human race is indeed not something that ordinary people can bear. Even if he can bear it, his relatives cannot. Great kindness turns into hatred, great blessings turn into disasters. This is how the world is after all."

The old ancestor Pan Wang also had a lot of insights about this, and sighed: "Even if Shennong enjoys all the honors in the world in the future, I am afraid he will never smile again."
