Chinese Gods are typically divided in two ways: the natural God, and the human God.  Human Gods were originally human, but due to their extraordinary deeds are posthumously worshipped and made divine.

"Wen Trung God" is also called Dsu Tong God and was born when his father was sixty years old.  His birthday is February 3, and he often spoke words of wisdom and was well read at a young age.

One year, there was a big drought and he dreamt that he worked as a divine official in charge of rain, and thus he commanded there be rain, and it did!  He later dressed as a scholar and traveled around.

Students in the past inevitably worshipped Wen Trung God for tests.  And thus they worshipped Him even more than they did Confucius.  This is still the case today, as witnessed by the piles and piles of ID cards in the temple asking for blessings during the testing season.
