The Redemption of Living People in the Afterglow of Creation

Pangu created the heaven and earth, the pure air ascended to become the sky, the turbid air condensed to become the earth, the body transformed into mountains, rivers and seas, and the soul condensed into the sun, moon and stars. However, the chaos has not yet dissipated, and the remnants are scattered in the heaven and earth, turning into poisonous miasma, ferocious beasts and evil weeds, disturbing the newly born human beings. At that time, the Chinese ancestors had just been born from the softness of Nuwa's clay. They were as ignorant as children. They did not know whether grains were edible or medicinal herbs could be used for medicine. They foraged for food in the mountains and forests all day long. They often accidentally ate poisonous weeds and died suddenly, or were attacked by ferocious beasts. They were also attacked by plagues. Corpses were everywhere, and screams filled the sky. The Emperor of Heaven lives above the sky, and he cannot bear to see the suffering of the people. Then he took a ray of his own awe-inspiring righteousness, mixed it with the remaining colorful stone essence of Nuwa to mend the sky, and threw it into a thousand-year-old sacred plant in Lishan, Suizhou. Three days later, the divine corn exploded, and a baby boy was born. He had the head of a bull and the body of a dragon, with a dragon face and big lips. His body was as clear as crystal, and his internal organs were clearly visible. He was surrounded by a faint golden light. This was the saint sent by the Emperor of Heaven to save the people. The tribesmen called him Shennong. On the day Shen Nong was born, nine phoenixes came from Kunlun and circled the roof for three days and three nights. The phoenix's cry shook away the poisonous miasma around them; hundreds of medicines bloomed behind the house, and the fragrance filled the mountains and fields; the dragon veins surged underground, and three springs gushed out, which were named "awakening the spirit", "dispelling diseases" and "nourishing". Upon seeing this, the elders of the clan led the whole clan to kneel down and shouted "God bless the living people".
