During the reign of Emperor Xiaoling, in the fifth year of Guanghe (182 AD), in February, a great epidemic broke out.

The plague swept across the nine provinces. In the Central Plains, there were corpses on the roads but no one dared to approach. People were afraid of people coughing like tigers. In villages where the epidemic broke out, nine out of ten houses were empty, and corpses were exposed in the wild, rotting and smelling bad.

The epidemic that swept across the Eastern Han Dynasty caused the already unstable people's morale to become even more chaotic.

The Taiping Dao priests came down the mountain to treat illnesses, which made the Taiping Dao more popular among the people. Countless refugees went to Julu and the nearest Yellow Turban village.

The influence of Taiping Dao expanded to an unprecedented height, continued to grow, and had countless followers.

Lin Han's Hanshan Village was famous for its reputation for destroying the Wuhuan, and he was also a direct disciple of the Great Sage Master. Now there was a plague, and the number of refugees coming to seek refuge had reached a peak. The number of refugees coming every day was as high as six or seven hundred, and the highest peak reached thousands.

The huge population movement inevitably brings plague.

Fortunately, Lin Han was prepared at the beginning of the plague.

The plague was well controlled in a specific area and did not affect the development of Hanshan Village.

Lin Han took this opportunity to reclaim wasteland in Hanshan Village and even sent some healthy refugees to the Xia Kingdom, the former land of the Wuhuan, in order to dilute the population of the remaining Wuhuan people and completely integrate them into the Han cultural circle.

Hanjiang Village followed suit and closed its gates early. All the refugees from outside were concentrated on the plains on the opposite bank of the Hanjiang Village to prevent the plague from spreading into the village.

Apart from the epidemic and the disease, the most terrifying thing is the fluctuating public sentiment. Once it becomes chaotic, it will be extremely troublesome.

After everything was settled, Lin Han went to the quarantine site to calm the people.

He is proficient in "Taiping Yaoshu" and possesses [Proficient in Medical Skills], so he can participate in the treatment. He combines the medical talisman [Rejuvenation Spell] with his proficient in medical skills to turn it into talisman water. Although it cannot cure the plague, it can stabilize the patient's condition, strengthen their physical fitness, and allow them to rely on their own immunity to resist.

All disciples who practice "Taiping Yaoshu" use this treatment method. It cannot cure the disease completely, but it can reduce the death rate and give patients hope.

"Sir, a scholar came from outside and introduced himself as Tian Feng. He is your retainer and wants to enter the camp." The messenger reported.

"Please invite someone in quickly."

Lin Han was overjoyed that Tian Feng had finally arrived.

"Tian Feng, I pay my respects to the Lord."

Lin Han immediately supported Tian Feng with a look of surprise.

"Yuan Hao, I finally got you. What do you think of my village?"

"A paradise on earth." Tian Feng said with a smile, "I went to the outskirts of Hanjiang Village to investigate three days ago. In the past few days, I saw that the lord went to the isolated village to comfort the villagers and treat the sick. I once said that the lord came from the humble background, but now it seems that I was ridiculous."

"These are all trivial matters. I have a strong physique and am not afraid of the plague. They are the people of the territory, and I know some medical skills, so naturally I have to save them."

Lin Han smiled modestly.

"From today on, the affairs of this village will be handed over to Yuan Hao for management. I once made a great wish, wishing that everyone in my territory would be like a dragon. Yuan Hao, please help me."

"What a great man! Feng will do his utmost to help the lord fulfill his wish."

Tian Feng bowed deeply.

"My lord, could you please introduce Master Cai to me? Feng has long admired him."

"Okay, Yuanhao, please follow me."

Lin Han brought Tian Feng to meet Cai Yong, and the two felt like old friends as soon as they met.

Because Cai Yong submitted a memorial to the emperor accusing his wife of interfering in government affairs, he was demoted and sent home to farm. After a general amnesty was issued, some treacherous people attempted to assassinate him, so he fled south.

Tian Feng resigned and returned home because he was dissatisfied with the eunuchs' abuse of power, the interference of external relatives in government affairs, and the framing of loyal officials.

Both of them were university graduates, and they hit it off immediately and had a great conversation.

Tian Feng successfully integrated into Hanjiang Village.

With Tian Feng around, Lin Han’s burden can be said to have been truly lifted.

After all, Ji Yun is too old and cannot handle affairs well. Now with Tian Feng, the village will have a brand new look.

With Dian Wei and Ji Ling in charge of military affairs, and Tian Feng and Cai Yong in charge of literature, there is basically no problem in the management of Hanjiang Village.

In the following days, Lin Han went to the quarantine area most of the time and used talisman water to save people.

Lin Han's side was safe and sound, but other places were in mourning.

In the "Dynasty" forum, players are complaining about the great epidemic in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

"Fuck! My territory has been hit by an epidemic. The population has been reduced by half, and the village finances have collapsed. We've survived bandit invasions and imperial taxation, but we can't survive this epidemic."

"As a hero, I didn't die at the hands of bandits or soldiers, but died from the plague. My talent has dropped a bit, who can I cry to? Damn the system."

"Me too."

"Me too."

“…”

"The importance of scientific prevention methods has been revealed. I asked the villagers in my territory to make their own masks. Am I proud?"

"I have inherited Chinese medicine from my ancestors, and I have the magical power [Mastery of Medical Skills]. When the plague struck, the village remained safe and sound, and the population increased."

"Nimma, can doctors play games like this?"

"Practice has proven that Western medicine is ineffective. Without [medical proficiency], without medicine and medical equipment, it cannot be cured. Don't ask me how I know."

"Please give me a prescription, brother, please give me a prescription."

"Does anyone know what virus this plague is? Malaria? H-N-H? Or some weird new virus?"

"Are modern Chinese herbal prescriptions for clearing away the plague effective?"

"Post-era formulas from the late Eastern Han Dynasty are ineffective, unless they are created by the system character's physician. Players treating game characters need to study under the game physician for at least three months and master the magical power [Proficiency in Medicine], or be a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner in real life and possess proficiency."

"Damn, this system is so damn clever! It completely eliminates the player's desire to cure the game character."

"The Black Dragon Guild is recruiting Chinese medicine practitioners."
