After rebirth, I became a national teacher

"Yes, sir. Xingde County just sent a letter today saying that all the patients infected with the plague have been cured."

"Now, as long as Xingde City and those who have had contact with the escaped wealthy people no longer get sick, this plague will be completely eradicated."

Speaking of those wealthy families, the official on duty filed a complaint with the prefect of Raozhou:

"Sir, the Xingde County Magistrate is simply too arrogant..."

Four days ago, the magistrate of Xingde County came to the government office in person and demanded in a very tough attitude that they immediately dispatch the government officials and garrison troops in the city to arrest the several wealthy families who had escaped, as well as other people who had contact with these wealthy families.

How dare they act on their own without the prefect's order?

Naturally, he refused as he did in the past and had to wait for the prefect's approval before taking any action.

But that kid actually incited the people of the city, saying that if the government office did not send troops, it would allow the plague to spread in the city. This made the people of the city very excited and they surrounded the government office to force them to send troops.

"You must punish this kid severely!"

The prefect was also very displeased with the Xingde County magistrate's bold and reckless behavior.

But what is more important now is to figure out the plague.

"How come those plague patients were cured so quickly? Is there really a plague in Xingde?"

The officer on duty said affirmatively:

"Sir, it is absolutely true. Those wealthy people who escaped because of illness were all suffering from the plague."

"Moreover, after receiving the second letter from Xingde County, I also sent people to investigate. At least one or two thousand people in Xingde County were infected with the plague."

"What about those wealthy families who escaped?" This was related to whether the plague would spread, and the prefect of Raozhou was very concerned about it.

"Most of these people fled to the prefectural capital, and some went to Wu County near Xingde to stay with relatives. They have all been caught and brought back."

"Some of them had contracted the plague, and some of the people they had contact with had also contracted the plague. The Xingde County Magistrate took all of them back to Xingde for treatment. He said in the letter that all of them had been cured."

The prefect of Raozhou stroked his long black beard and began to ponder.

The magistrate of Xingde County was a very honest young man. Since he dared to say in the edict that all the plague patients had been cured, it must be true.

Then, the crisis has been resolved.

The plague was completely eradicated in a short period of time... This guy, the Xingde County Magistrate, is a talented person.

It is truly a blessing for him that such talents appear under his rule.

Not long after, the prefect of Raozhou decided to go to Xingde in person.

Figuring out the process of eradicating the plague might even become a major achievement that helps him get promoted.

The prefect of Raozhou soon appeared outside Xingde County with several followers.

"It is still uncertain whether there will be a secondary outbreak of plague in Xingde County. Now you can only enter but not leave. Everyone should think carefully!"

The soldier guarding the gate warned.

The prefect of Raozhou didn't care at all. He allowed people to enter but not leave. That was for ordinary people. Who would dare to stop him?

As I walked into the city, I happened to see many people running in a certain direction with excitement on their faces.

"Ask someone what's going on."

The prefect ordered.

The attendant immediately grabbed a young man in cloth and asked:

"Brother, let me know what you are doing?"

The young man was surprised:

"You don't know? Today the people in the city are going to build a temple for the God of Du'e, and everyone is rushing to donate money!"

"God of Destiny? Who is that?"

The prefect considered himself well-informed, but he had never heard of such a deity.

The young man looked at them in surprise, then suddenly said:

"You don't even know the God, it seems you are not from our Xingde County."

"Please teach me, little brother."

Seeing his politeness, the young man was also quite interested in talking, and said with a look of admiration and excitement:

"The Lord God is the savior of tens of thousands of people in our entire Xingde City!"

"You don't know, just seven or eight days ago, there was a plague raging here. Two to three thousand people were infected with the plague, and seven to eight hundred were seriously ill. Many people thought they were dead. Who would have thought that when everyone was in despair, the God descended from the sky and saved everyone!"

The prefect looked thoughtful. It seemed that the key to eradicating the plague in Xingde City lay in the so-called deity.

"In just a few days, he was able to cure so many plague patients. It seems that this Du'e God is an amazing doctor!"

If he could be recruited into his team, it would be of great benefit to his future career.

The young man was very angry when he heard this:

"How can you, a foreigner, compare an ordinary doctor to our God? The God is a god! Do gods know that?"

Seeing that he didn't believe it, the young man tried to convince him with more specific words:

"Those thousands of plague patients were not cured in a few days, but in one day!"

"Our Lord God simply drew a white circle and put two hundred critically ill patients in it. In just two moments, they were all cured!"

As he was speaking, another man came forward and said:

"Yes, my wife and son were cured by the Divine Master! If it weren't for the Divine Master, I would be alone! This time I will definitely donate more money to the Divine Master to build the temple!"

"That's right, my life was also saved by the God!"

Another old man passing by also came forward to confirm his story.

The prefect frowned unconsciously, in disbelief:

"You were all cured in two moments?"

"That's not the case. I was a mild case and it only took a moment."

Another middle-aged man said.

"Yes, only seriously ill patients need two quarters of an hour."

More and more people are gathering around.

The young man at the beginning became more and more confident and said to everyone:

"Neighbors, this outsider actually doesn't believe that Shenzun is a god. Can you tell him whether our Shenzun is a god or not?"

The people who were around became excited when they heard this:

"Of course it's a god!"

“Although the Divine Master never stated that she called herself the Venerable One, everyone knows that she is a Divine Master!”

"Yes, there is a seven-color light on the body of the God! Have you ever seen an ordinary person glowing?"

"And the God can fly!"

"Not only can it fly, but it can also disappear without a trace in the blink of an eye!"

"That white circle is also very magical. As long as the patient is inside and it's not time for him to come out, no one outside can get in. It's like there's an invisible iron wall!"

“That’s why they say that the power of the God is boundless!”

"That's right! From now on, I will only believe in the God of Du'e!"

"Me too!"

"Who isn't!"

"I want my relatives and friends to only believe in Du'e God from now on! I have worshipped so many gods, and I don't know if they are still there, but at least I have seen Du'e God with my own eyes and he really exists!"

"That's right. I have to talk to my relatives and ask them to come and worship our Du'e God!"

……

By the end of this conversation, no one paid any attention to the prefect and his companions anymore. They all started talking about how to make their relatives and friends believe only in the God Du'e.

The prefect was a little dazed.

So many people said in unison, with certainty, that it was a god who saved them.

It was completely different from what he originally thought, that the Xingde County Magistrate was the one who turned the tide.

So... should he still take the credit?
