Honghuang: Creation of the Green Lotus, the beginning of the Three Pure Ones

Chapter 214: Fuxi's Reign and the Troubles of the Human Race
Seeing that Hou Tu's mind was completely focused on eating, Chen Xuan's face was full of helplessness. He immediately glared at Hou Tu and said.

"If you were Zhen Yuanzi, would you destroy your own life fruit tree just to prevent others from eating the fruit?"

Hou Tu nodded after hearing this, "That's true. After all, doing so would definitely harm others and not benefit yourself."

For a moment, everyone was amused by Hou Tu's joke. Even Chen Xuan couldn't help but smile.

At this time, Hou Tu was even more determined to shock people. She directly asked Chen Xuan, "By the way, Master, when will your peach tree bear peaches?"

Chen Xuan was completely embarrassed at this point. He really couldn't understand why this disciple of the dignified Lord of the Nine Netherworlds only had a greedy mind.

……

When Fuxi was a teenager, Huang Longshi began to hand over the affairs of the tribe to Fuxi bit by bit. Finally, after a full ten years, Fuxi finally took over the entire Huaxu tribe.

Huang Longshi was finally able to retire after his success, and he and his daughter Hua Xu went to the Fire Cloud Cave of the human race. After Fuxi became the patriarch of the Hua Xu tribe, he felt a great sense of responsibility.

He understood that the prosperity of the tribe depended not only on the accumulation of military force and resources, but also on the inheritance of wisdom and culture.

So he began to carry out drastic reforms.

First, Fuxi decided to reorganize the tribe's governance structure and divided it into several regions.

Each area is managed by a respected elder who ensures that every member of the tribe is treated fairly.

At the same time, he also established a "council" composed of elders from various regions and wise men in the tribe to discuss important affairs of the tribe.

In this way, the tribe's decision-making becomes more democratic and the opinions of the tribesmen are fully respected.

Secondly, Fuxi also observed the celestial phenomena, summarized the patterns of the changing seasons, and formulated the earliest calendar to help his people better arrange their agricultural activities.

As time went by, the Huaxu tribe's ability to ward off disasters and provide refuge was greatly improved, and the lives of the tribesmen gradually became more prosperous.

Fuxi also focused on the development of handicrafts and trade. He encouraged his people to learn crafts such as pottery making and clothing weaving, and to exchange these items with other tribes.

Gradually, the Huaxu tribe became a trade center among the surrounding tribes, and the living standards of the tribesmen were greatly improved.

However, Fuxi's reforms were not limited to the material level. He knew that the prosperity of a tribe was inseparable from the inheritance of culture.

So he began to organize the legends and wisdom of the tribe and invented the knotted cord recorder, which allowed the human race to record some important events.

As time went by, Fuxi's reputation gradually spread throughout the human race. Many tribes came to learn from his governance experience, and some even took the initiative to submit to the Huaxu tribe.

Fuxi did not become complacent because of this, but instead treated everyone who came to seek his advice with even greater humility. He believed that only when the human race was united could they thrive on this land.

However, Fuxi always had an unsolved doubt in his heart. He often looked up at the starry sky, pondering the mysteries of heaven and earth.

He vaguely felt that there was some kind of mysterious connection between himself and this world, but he could not fully understand the mystery.

In the end, Fuxi had no choice but to go find the Great Master Xuandu, hoping that the Great Master Xuandu could help him solve his confusion.

Upon learning of Fuxi's worries, Master Xuandu smiled and said, "The yin and yang of heaven and earth are all governed by laws." "The Hetu Luoshu in your hand can help you resolve your worries. It's more than just an innate spiritual treasure."

The Hetu and Luoshu had always been in Fuxi's hands, but Fuxi had never thought that the Hetu and Luoshu had other uses besides helping him defend against enemies.

Now, after hearing Master Xuandu's reminder, he immediately took out the River Map and Luo Shu and began to carefully observe the patterns on it.

Gradually, Fuxi became intoxicated by the mysteries of the Hetu and Luoshu, as if he were in a mysterious world.

After an unknown amount of time, Dao patterns began to appear all over Fuxi's body. With Fuxi at the center, a giant yin-yang fish formed.

This inevitably gave Fuxi a shock, as if he had received some kind of revelation. He immediately recorded the pattern and began to study it carefully.

After a long period of deduction, he finally understood the mystery of the "Eight Diagrams" and revealed the laws governing the operation of the universe.

Since Fuxi created the Eight Trigrams and began to promote them among the human race, the development of the human race has reached a whole new level.

On the surface, the human race is now on the right track and everything is moving in a good direction.

However, there are still many drawbacks that plague humanity. For example, Cangjie, who was responsible for knotting ropes to record events, often worried about not being able to remember what the knots represented.

One day, Cang Jie was still staring at the knots in front of him, muttering to himself, "What does this represent? Why can't I remember it?"

At this moment, the Turtle Spirit Mother appeared silently behind him, and looked at the bewildered Cangjie with a smile on her face.

"Can't you remember what this knot represents?" Turtle Spirit Mother asked Cangjie.

Seeing that the visitor was the Taoist disciple Turtle Spirit Holy Mother, Cang Jie hurriedly bowed and said, "Greetings, Holy Mother, I really can't remember."

The Turtle Spirit Mother couldn't help but chuckle after hearing this. "That's right, you can't remember it, because I tied the knot secretly."

Cangjie never dreamed that he would hear such a shocking statement from the mouth of the Turtle Spirit Mother.

After a while, he finally spoke to the Turtle Spirit Mother and said, "My Holy Mother, aren't you causing me trouble?"

The Turtle Spirit Mother curled her lips and said, "It's because your method is too stupid. Otherwise, I might not be able to cause trouble for you."

"Think about the demon race's heavenly court. Back then, they had much more to do than the human race. They were able to record all the important things one by one."

"Even now, the demon race has its own demon writing. It's much more convenient than your knotted string record keeping, and it's easier to preserve."

After hearing this, Cang Jie suddenly woke up from his dream, "The Holy Mother is saying that we humans should also use demonic script to record events?"

"No, there is an irreconcilable feud between the human race and the demon race. How can we use the demon race's writing to record the affairs of the human race?"

After hearing this, the Turtle Spirit Mother couldn't help but curl her lips, "Since you don't want to use the demon race's writing, then create your own writing for the human race."

While speaking, the Turtle Spirit Mother did not forget to pat Cangjie on the shoulder. Her face was full of a smile that said, "I believe you."
