Qin Liang slowly lit the torch again.
When the prefect arrived, he saw the gleaming golden lotus on his forehead.
And the monks chanting sutras around him
And there were piles of grain and buckets of clean water.
Then I heard a little girl wearing a veil shout.
"Many thanks to the abbot and monks of Fuhua Temple for begging Lord Dangkang to bestow food and water, saving the people from danger!"
The people heard the sound and quickly looked over.
In one corner of the square, piles of grain were seen, and the young monk Jingming spoke up at the opportune moment.
"Amitabha! Dear benefactors, please go back and retrieve your cloth bags and buckets, and line up to receive your gifts! If anyone causes trouble or tries to steal them, Lord Kang will take back everything bestowed upon you."
After bowing in worship, the people hurriedly went back to retrieve containers for food and water.
The prefect ordered the soldiers behind him to maintain order and help distribute food and water.
He walked up to Doctor You and bowed deeply.
"Greetings, Divine Physician! I am Lin Han, the Prefect of Changjin County. Thank you for saving my life and the lives of the people in my county. I was bedridden, but after taking the pills brought by the soldiers, I suddenly regained my strength, my fever subsided, and all my pain disappeared. You truly deserve the title of Divine Physician!"
Lin Han was about to kneel down when Doctor You quickly helped him up.
"Your Excellency, I am merely an ordinary physician. Fortunately, I possess a family-inherited medicinal formula that has enabled me to offer some relief."
Then he pointed to the grain and water.
"Your Excellency, this grain was obtained through a ritual performed by the abbot and high monks of Fuhua Temple, and by praying to the auspicious beast Dangkang!"
Lin Han was extremely grateful to Jingming and the others!
Suddenly, Doctor You sighed.
"They made a grand vow that if they could save all the people in the city, they would endure arduous spiritual practice, learn the Dharma, and then return to Chiling Mountain to rebuild Fuhua Temple. If word gets out that they are begging for food, I'm afraid..."
Upon hearing Doctor You's words, the temple keeper immediately began to cough.
The others were still focused on chanting scriptures, and the prefect understood...
He didn't care where the food and water came from.
He would be eternally grateful to whoever delivered the grain, as long as it saved the people.
"Rest assured, Divine Physician, no matter what the disaster victims and the common people say afterward, you can deny it. The one who cured the people of Changjin County was a wandering doctor whose whereabouts are unknown!"
He then looked at Jingming and the others.
"The grain was donated by Fuhua Temple with the full strength of the temple. The abbot and high monks chanted sutras and prayed for us to drive away bad luck. The auspicious beast Dang Kang is the guardian beast of our Changjin County. After the epidemic is over, we will definitely set up an offering for Dang Kang!"
Dr. You stroked his beard with satisfaction.
"The Prefect's idea is indeed very thorough."
He then took out a bag of pills and handed it to him.
"Your Excellency, this is a traditional Chinese medicine recipe passed down through my family. It can detoxify and cure diseases. I am giving it to you in the hope that you will enjoy good health and live a long life!"
The prefect quickly accepted the gift and expressed his gratitude.
"Then thank you very much for the medicine, divine doctor!"
After carefully putting away the pills, he looked at the people who were arriving one after another and bowed to Doctor You.
"Miracle doctor, I'll be working hard from now on. Please don't hesitate to ask if you need anything!"
Doctor You returned the greeting with a cupped hand.
"Then I'll get back to my work. Please make yourself at home, Your Excellency Prefect!"
After saying that, he hurriedly went to see patients.
Even the prefect dared not disturb Jingming and the others while they were chanting scriptures.
He walked up to them, knelt down, and bowed three times reverently before going to help.
Qin Luo instructed the prefect to send soldiers to distribute food and water to the people queuing up.
He went to the large water vat that Wu Nian had brought over, and mixed the concentrated disinfectant solution.
Let the patrolmen spread their reach to every corner of the city.
The prefect, not understanding why this was being done, asked.
"Young friend, why do you do this?"
Qin Luo pointed to Doctor You not far away and said
"This is a disinfectant solution my grandfather prepared. He said that if the solution was sprayed all over the city, the epidemic would be completely eradicated and there would be no more human-to-human transmission."
Upon hearing that it was the divine physician who spoke of it, the prefect immediately ordered his subordinates...
"Summon more people to sprinkle this potion throughout the city, but don't waste it! Anyone who wastes it will be executed! Go now! No, I'll go with you all! Let's go, let's go..."
After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves, picked up the bucket, and left.
Qin Luo looked at the prefect's retreating figure with great admiration.
"This prefect is a good official!"
Everyone was busy.
Mu Feng and Wu Nian, along with a group of soldiers, fed the medication to the critically ill patients one by one.
Dr. You kept a close eye on the patient.
The soldiers in the square were quickly distributing the rations...
Qin Liang and Qin Xian were also distributing water to the disaster victims and ordinary people!
Qin Luo filled the plastic bucket with water one minute and added the prepared disinfectant to the water tank the next.
In my spare time, I also brought food and drinks to Dr. You and the others…
Finally, the young monk Jingming and the others stopped reciting the scriptures and all scattered to help others.
The group worked for several days, during which time the prefect brought the people of Qixia Village into the city.
The refugees outside the city saw the city gates open.
They also believed that there was indeed an epidemic in the city, and that it wasn't intentional to prevent them from entering.
The soldiers said the epidemic in the city had been mostly contained, but no one dared to follow Qin Ling and his men inside.
They preferred to wait a few more days in place rather than venture into the city rashly.
But Qinling relayed the message to Jingming and the others.
They would rather die than tell anyone about their request for grain.
I will always remember the kindness of Fuhua Temple and Lord Dang Kang!
A few days later, the epidemic in the city was completely eradicated.
The prefect ordered the city gates to be opened to let the disaster victims in.
After confirming that there were no more cases in the city, Qin Luo and his group decided to continue their journey.
She had previously inquired about the wells in Wu Niancheng.
Wu Nian said that the wells in the city had not dried up, but the water output had become very small.
