After rebirth, I became a national teacher

It’s a pity that the temple master did so much, but the victims knew nothing about it.

The only people they were grateful to were the officials and merchants who participated.

Moreover, the abbot strictly ordered that the name of Cihang Temple should not be spread outside.

Therefore, she had no choice but to wear fine clothes and travel at night, hiding her achievements and fame.

Chen Qingzhu was aware of the regret in his capable subordinate's heart, but he did not explain.

This disaster will definitely attract the attention of the emperor, so Cihang Temple naturally cannot have too much presence in disaster relief.

Otherwise, with her current strength, she couldn't guarantee that she could escape safely after being noticed by the emperor.

Besides, keeping a low profile doesn't mean she has gained nothing.

On the contrary, it can be said that she is the biggest winner of this disaster relief.

From the moment the victims began to migrate, countless merits surged into her dantian.

This was the first time she saw the concrete appearance of merit.

Those were some golden spots of light that were different from spiritual energy. They required a lot of energy to be gathered to be "seen", but could not be perceived. They directly flowed into the Dantian from the surrounding void and then attached to the Dantian.

As the migration progressed, the golden spots became more and more numerous, forming a thick layer in the Dantian.

It looks like one third of the Dantian is filled with golden merit spots.

In fact, it does not affect the spiritual energy capacity of Dantian at all.

All in all, this is a very peculiar substance.

What is even more gratifying is that after gaining so much merit, the speed at which she absorbed spiritual energy directly became three times faster than before.

This was far beyond her original expectations.

She originally thought that even if she regained merit, the speed of absorbing spiritual energy would only be twice as fast as before. Unexpectedly, it was even faster than she thought.

She broke through to the third level of Qi Refining in mid-April.

According to the initial speed, plus the consumption of spiritual energy, it will take more than nine months, which is around the end of the first lunar month of next year, to break through the fourth level of Qi Refining.

Now, in just about a month and a half, she would be able to be promoted directly to the fourth level of Qi Refining.

By then, she will be able to release her true energy, and she will truly possess the attack power of a cultivator and be more like an "immortal".

This was the first time she felt the true power of merit, and she suddenly understood why those meritorious monks seemed to be kind, but people in the cultivation world generally did not dare to provoke them.

Merit is more powerful than she imagined.

As a person in a higher position, you can gain so much merit just by making some arrangements and deployments without having to do anything yourself.

This is just the result of controlling a small number of powerful people in the southern capital.

The book says that when the emperor was angry, millions of people died.

If she were in a higher position, her casual words would undoubtedly influence more people.

If it is planned more carefully, what great merits can it bring to her!

Suppressing his expanding ambition, Chen Qingzhu immersed himself in cultivation once again.

A tall tree attracts the wind. If you want to stand at a higher position, you must have stronger power.

The dignitaries in the capital and the emperor in the Golden Palace are not as docile and easy to control as her current followers.

Before thinking about these distant things, it would be more practical for her to quickly cultivate to the fourth level of Qi Refining and bring Rong Niang back to her side.

Thanks to the efforts of Duke Dingguo, Yan Tongzhi and others, all the relief supplies and money allocated from various places arrived in full.

These disaster victims in Southern Zhili were almost the ones who received the best resettlement treatment in the history of the country.

When the Embroidered Uniform Guards and factory supervisors came to inspect, every day they could hear the people praising and thanking the disaster relief officials, the wealthy businessmen who were helping, as well as the court and the emperor.

More than 20 days later, in mid-September, the flood that had spread across half of South Zhili gradually receded.

In the Southern Capital City, people were sent to the worst-hit areas every three days to investigate the flood situation. They learned that the water had gradually receded and the weather in the middle and upper reaches was gradually clearing up. The court began to organize the affected people to return home.
