Chapter 51
  Lu Yu looked at the young man in front of him with some emotion in his heart.

In order to repay this kindness, he would not hesitate to sacrifice his own life.

Even though he has never met Lu Yu.

But still so unhesitating!
  People of this era have their own character.

"What?" Wei Wen was a little dumbfounded when he heard this, and asked in disbelief: "Lu Yu? Are you the God of Medicine?"

The Taoist priest on the side nodded and said: "The Medicine God has already known about the governor's plan to send troops, and came here specifically to deal with the matter."

Wei Wen saluted without hesitation and said gratefully: "Greetings to my benefactor! Thank you so much for saving my family's lives!!"

"No need to be polite." Lu Yu quickly helped Wei Wen up and said in a gentle tone: "I already know about this. You don't need to worry. Go back quickly. It's going to rain soon. If you don't go back, it will be too late."

"I was reckless, I'll go back right away."

Wei Wen nodded and then left the Taoist temple.

After leaving the Taoist temple and walking for a while, it really started to rain.

"My benefactor is really a god. It hadn't rained when I came here. I said it would rain when I got back, but I didn't expect it was going to rain. Moreover, it felt like it was going to rain hard."

Wei Wen shielded himself from the rain, quickened his pace, and soon returned to the Sheriff's Mansion.

now.

The wind became stronger, the rain became heavier, and thunder rumbled from time to time.

A thunderstorm came suddenly.

Inside the Sheriff's Mansion.

In Chu Gong's study.

Listening to the thunder outside, Chu Gong's eyebrows jumped and he subconsciously said: "It's such a big thunder...could it be?"

"No, since it's raining, there will definitely be thunder. What does this have to do with Lu Yu on Taiping Road?"

"How can human power control the heavens? Not even the alchemists in the capital have this ability, not even the great wise master!"

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the originally closed windows were blown open by the wind.

Chu Gong walked to the window and prepared to close it.

Just now.

A bolt of lightning fell from the sky!

The lightning reached its peak and fell straight down, heading straight towards the Sheriff's Mansion!
  Snow-white lightning, like a peerless sword, instantly fell from the sky above the house!
  The originally dark surroundings became like daylight!

The lightning was followed by a deafening bang.

"Boom~~~!!!"

The infinite power of the thunder made Chu Gong's scalp numb and the hairs all over his body stood up in fear. He couldn't help but scream and subconsciously held his head to avoid it!

Countless electric lights flashed, and thin and long thunder and lightning flashed past!

The lightning struck the 'copper corner' above the house, which was a 'lightning rod' installed on the eaves by craftsmen when building the house.

The copper-iron tip shaped like a bull's horn pierces the sky, and there is a slender copper wire, connected to the horn, and the other end is buried deep in the ground.

All high-ranking households have similar devices to protect their buildings, and the Sheriff's House is no exception.

Of course.

This thing is installed just to be prepared, because the chance of being hit by lightning is really pitiful.

However today.

Chu Gong actually witnessed the power of thunder with his own eyes.

This feeling of brushing against death made him feel relieved for a long time, but he was still in shock.

"How did this thunder hit me so coincidentally?"

Chu Gong murmured, unable to believe what was happening in front of him.

Just now, he was repeatedly denying the thunder method of Lu Yu, the commander of Xiaofang Qu, Taiping Road. He firmly believed that no one in this world could know the thunder method, but he was immediately struck by lightning!

"Could this thunder be Lu Yu's trick?"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"But...how could such a coincidence happen in this world?"

Chu Gong frowned, with a look of surprise on his face. He was frightened by the thunder just now. He sat on the chair, his legs still a little weak.

"If it weren't for Lu Yu's methods, I'm afraid God is telling me that I must not attack Lu Yu?"

"Yes, yes, that's definitely the case..."

"He developed a miracle medicine that can cure the plague. Countless people are alive, and his virtuous name is spread throughout the world."

"Such a person will be erected with a monument in the future. How can I be so obsessed with it that I want to stab him?" "You shouldn't, absolutely shouldn't do this. For a mere villa and thousands of acres of farmland, Are you going to go against the grain?"

"God, I, Chu Gong, already know I made a mistake. I will reflect on it and correct it."

"Don't ever be angry again!"

Under this brilliant power of heaven, Mr. Chu, who was originally tall and tough, lowered his head at this moment and began to relent.

Chu Gong apologized repeatedly and decided to change his ways. After a while, the rain gradually stopped and the sky cleared up quickly.

Summer thunderstorms are like this, they come and go quickly.

This was a very normal situation, but in the eyes of the suspicious Chu Gong, it was anything but normal.

This was obviously because I had prayed repeatedly and decided to change my ways, and then 'God' calmed down and expressed forgiveness for myself.

"It's clear... God, I know, I know what to do."

Chu Gong murmured.

Soon.

Chu Gong directly called Fu Zhongji, the recorder of affairs, to come over.

Fu Zhongji originally thought that the county guard's soldiers and horses were ready to operate on Lu Yu, so he specially asked him to go with him.

But who would have known that when he arrived here, he was shouted at by Chu Gong and asked, "Old man, do you know your guilt?"

Fu Zhongji's eyes widened, how could he be accused?

Could it be that he secretly received kickbacks from three stores and was discovered by the county guard?
  Fu Zhongji broke into cold sweat on his back, hesitated for a moment, and quickly begged for mercy: "Prefect Chu, please calm down, my subordinate is old and lost his mind for a moment. I should not be greedy for those three shops. Please forgive me, Prefect!"

"Okay, you got a kickback?!" Chu Gong was so angry that he laughed when he heard this.

"what???"

Fu Zhongji was dumbfounded, wasn't it because of this? If it wasn't for this, why would the county magistrate accuse himself?
  Seeing Fu Zhongji's puzzled face, County Sheriff Chu Gong snorted and said directly: "I have found out the truth!"

"Fortunately, I have sharp eyesight, otherwise I would have been blinded by a villain like you!"

"That nephew of yours, the Tan family, buys garlic privately to prevent Taiping Road from curing the plague!"

"After being robbed by bandits, they falsely accused Taiping Dao! What a slap in the face!"

"Taipingdao has saved countless lives from the plague and has done countless good deeds. You just pour dirty water on others indiscriminately?"

"You bastards, has your conscience really been eaten by dogs?"

"I think you don't want to do this job of recording things and making history. Come back here!"

"Tell Tan Yan from the Tan family! Tell him not to sue Taiping Dao and the medicine god Lu Yu again. How can such a wise man be slandered by a villain like him?"

"I have concluded the Tan family tragedy in Jiyang County. It was a robbery by bandits and has nothing to do with Taiping Road!"

Fu Zhongji was stunned for a moment when he heard what the county magistrate said, his face full of disbelief.

Why did the county governor go back on his promise?
  Moreover, the county governor has always been dissatisfied with Taiping Road. When something like this happened, shouldn't he just follow the trend and take the opportunity to attack Taiping Road?
  Why did you suddenly change your attitude? This is so strange!
  Fu Zhongji couldn't figure out what was going on.

After a long while, Fu Zhongji hesitated and asked solemnly: "What about the farmland and the shop..."

Chu Gong looked at Fu Zhongji and said coldly: "You have been a recorder and historian for so long, how come you don't even understand simple principles?"

"What's the point?" Fu Zhongji asked subconsciously.

"The false accuser will sit down!" Chu Gong sneered, "Since you and your nephew dare to come here and make false accusations, do you think that everything will be fine if I find out the truth?"

As soon as these words came out, Fu Zhongji's eyes widened and he opened his mouth to speak, but nothing came out.

Because he knew that no matter what he said at this moment, it would be useless.

"If it weren't for this prefect finding out the truth, Taiping Dao Lu Yu would have suffered such unjust injustice!" Chu Gong said seriously.

"I think you have been working in the government for so many years, so I am magnanimous and let you go. How dare you ask for the farmland and shop in the villa?"

"I will never be greedy for the land and the villa. I have planned to give it to Lu Yu of Taiping Road as a reward for his efforts to cure the plague for the people!"

"This is also your way of atonement!"

Listening to these words, Fu Zhongji looked a little dazed for a moment.

Everything that happened now was in extremely strong conflict with what he had known for many years!

He looked at Chu Gong blankly. Is the prefect possessed by a ghost? ? ?
  "Prefect, why is this so?"

Fu Zhongji murmured to himself, looking sad.

Chu Gong looked at his subordinate who had been under him for so many years and showed such an expression. He knew that he had a lot of unwillingness and incomprehensibility in his heart.

Chu Gong said quietly: "This is God's will!"
