The news that Zhong Changtong rushed to Luoyang, sure enough, soon spread out, just because after he arrived at the sacrificial mansion, there were thirteen officials who wrote to resign from their positions, of course, before Zhong Changtong came, there were already many people who resigned from their official positions, most of these people are Taoists, that is, those who are proficient in various sacrifices, and there are some monks and monks in them.

The reason why the remaining twenty or so people didn't run away was that they weren't Fangshi, and they didn't know much about the sacrificial things, they were just assigned to the sacrificial mansion by Sun Quan, so although they were afraid of the notorious Zhong Changtong, they definitely didn't have the idea of resigning, but after Zhong Changtong arrived, they suddenly felt that they were wrong.

I was wrong, I was still naïve.

They knew that Zhong Changtong was a person who ignored ghosts and gods, but they didn't expect that Zhong Changtong was a hater of ghosts and gods at all, and after he served as a servant of the sacrificial palace, the first thing he did was to recruit the strong, ask for ordnance, recruit the strong, this kind of thing was not allowed, and it was even more impossible to ask for ordnance, and the officials resigned one after another, and only six people stayed by Zhong Changtong's side.

These officials went directly to Shangshutai and asked to resign, wanting to impeach Zhong Changtong here in Xun Yu, but they didn't see Xun Yu at all, Xun Yu directly sent someone to agree to their request to resign, and drove them away without saying much.

More than a dozen officials resigned, and it was the day after Zhong Changtong took office, which naturally caused a sensation in Luoyang.

However, at this moment, Zhong Changtong was sitting calmly in the mansion, not caring about their departure at all, there were eight people sitting next to him, these eight were the last to stay by his side, in addition to Xu Shu, there were seven, Yang Lian was also in it, which made Zhong Changtong very happy, he said with a smile: "I am very happy that you can stay, thank you!" ”

"Don't dare!"

"Most of the people here are older than me, sure enough, the young people still can't understand my thoughts, and you are the ones who understand...", Zhong Changtong couldn't help but sigh, most of the people who stayed were relatively old, but these people are now smiling bitterly, if they don't have to support their families, who wants to stay, those people are still young and have no scruples, we can't do it.

"In that case, then we're officially going to work... Recruiting people..."

Xu Shu on the side opened his mouth and said: "This matter is not easy to handle, the current official system, it is impossible to recruit people or ask for ordnance...", everyone looked at him in surprise, Zhong Changtong remembered that he had not introduced it to everyone, and hurriedly said: "This is my staff, called Xu Shu." Only then did everyone see him, this person is an understanding person, hurry up and persuade Zhong Changjun, don't let him have such thoughts again.

Xu Shu continued: "So, it's best to contact the guards, I have some friendship with Wei Yan of the guards, he is from the Southern Army, I will look for him, as long as I can move them, give us a hundred guards, let us move, and let us move, there is no need to ask for ordnance again, things will be easy to do." ”

"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you, by the way, don't recruit people from Liangzhou." , Zhong Changtong said, looked at Yang Lian again, and ordered: "There is one thing that has to worry about Yang Jun..."

......

Xu Shu came to the Guard's Mansion, Wei Yan heard that his old friend was coming, he thought for a moment, but he couldn't remember who it was, but now he is Zuo Cheng of the Guard's Mansion and no one dared to come to the door to deceive him, so he let him in, Xu Shu was taken to Wei Yan's study by a small official, and when he entered the door, Wei Yan looked at it, then stood up, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Xu Jun, why did you change your name, and I almost let the officials blow you away!" ”

"Hahaha, I also forgot about this matter, I was still thinking about why Wei Jun snubbed me so much, and I thought that Wei Jun looked down on his old friend when he held an important position."

"What's the matter, come, sit, sit, alas, being a left, can't afford to be an important position." , Wei Yan said with some loss, the two sat down, and exchanged pleasantries for a long time, Xu Shu knew his temperament, this person was famous, so he praised it, "I heard that this Zhuge servant shoots very much to Wei Jun, wait a few more years, let alone say that it is a servant shot, it is the position of this Zhongshu Ling, I think Wei Jun can also compete for it." ”

Hearing Xu Shu's words, Wei Yan was overjoyed, under Xu Shu's deliberate pandering, the two chatted very happily, and gradually chatted until now, Xu Shu said: "I am now on an errand in the sacrificial mansion, and the servant of the sacrificial mansion is my friend, so I became a staff member under his command, and gave advice to him. ”

Xu Shu didn't hide his intentions, and said truthfully.

Wei Yan frowned, and said with some embarrassment: "What's the use of this sacrificial mansion asking for manpower?" There are not many people in the palace. ”

Xu Shu was stunned for a moment, he knew that to be honest, he was afraid that Wei Yan would not be able to help him easily, so he said slowly: "Zhong Changjun heard that there are ghosts and monsters in Si Li, and there are often strange things, so he has to take people to catch ghosts and subdue demons..."

"Ah?!?h , Wei Yan was shocked, his face turned pale with fright, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and then asked, "Zhong Changjun really did this?" ”

"Could it be that Wei Jun has never heard of Zhong Changjun?"

"Of course I have heard of it, when I heard that Zhong Changjun was located, the ghosts and gods did not dare to approach, even Huang Long could only leave in a hurry... This.. How many people does he need..."

"A hundred people is enough, as long as there are a hundred people, there will be no ghosts and gods inside and outside the division."

"Hmm... Ok, a hundred people.. If Zhong Changjun wants to do something, I will give him a hundred people to transfer, but he can't stay in the sacrificial mansion normally..."

"Okay, thank you Jun Wei so much!" , Xu Shu got up and bowed, but Wei Yan didn't accept it, the two chatted for a long time, Wei Yan sent him away, after Xu Shu left, Wei Yan called his subordinates and asked them to prepare a hundred people, and said about Zhong Changjun, but he didn't know that this matter caused a riot in the palace.

"Did you hear that? Zhong Changjun of the Sacrifice Mansion wants to borrow a hundred of us to catch ghosts?! ”

"Did you hear that? Zhong Changjun of the Sacrifice Mansion is said to take a hundred of us to kill the fox demon! ”

"Did you hear that? It is said that the Nakacho-kun of the sacrificial house is going to take a hundred people to occupy the prefecture!! ”

"Uh-huh???"

Wei Yan looked at the guards who were kneeling on the ground in front of him, crying and unwilling to go to the sacrifice mansion, and he was extremely dazed.

Xu Shu, who had done this, returned to the house, Zhong Changtong was very happy when he learned about it, and after a while, Yang Lian returned to the house, but Zhong Changtong sent him to all parts of Luoyang to investigate the temples and the like here... Zhong Changtong listened carefully to Yang Lian's explanation, nodded from time to time, and said: "I didn't expect that there are still so many liars in the capital, so tomorrow you will go to the palace and bring a hundred soldiers over!" ”

The next day, when Yang Lian arrived at the guard's house, Wei Yan had already prepared the people, he didn't dare to see Yang Lian, the hundred guards were also standing at the door in fear, and some even shed tears, this time, I don't know if they can come back, but they have no way to refuse, and there is no way to leave, if they escape, they will be punished as deserters, and many people made a final farewell to their families yesterday.

Looking at these soldiers who regarded death as home, Yang Lian couldn't help but be surprised, and the soldiers of the palace were really good.

Zhong Changjun waited at the door of the mansion, when Yang Lian arrived with everyone, he went to talk to several officials in the pawn one by one, and the pawns looked at him in awe, Zhong Changjun gave an order, everyone moved, that look, that posture, I don't know if I thought it was the southern army, Zhong Changtong took them to a temple in the south of the city, here is a floating temple, many people go in and out of incense.

"Someone!! Surround me with these incense fools!! ”

"The rest of the people went in and arrested all the monks inside!!" , Hearing Zhong Changtong's roar, the soldiers were even more stunned, and then rushed to those civilians, surrounded them, and then looked at this temple, the temple that was still extraordinarily luxurious, but now it seems that it is strange everywhere, as if it is really a demon land, those monks... Could it be a monster?

The guards gritted their teeth and rushed in, and when they saw the monks who were a little dazed, they knocked them to the ground with a stick, and four or five people pounced on them and subdued them.

"Who are you?!" The people screamed.

Zhong Changtong slowly walked into the temple, looked around with disdain, lowered his head, looked at the monks, and slowly pulled out the long sword on his waist, in their frightened eyes, Zhong Changtong actually killed them directly, one by one, but those people were so frightened that they almost fainted, Zhong Changtong raised his head, looked at the surrounding sculptures, and shouted angrily: "Smash these down!" ”

"But..."

"Smash it!!"

"Boom!!"

After a while, the entire temple was like a ruin, and there was nothing complete in sight, Zhong Changtong looked at those civilians, he gritted his teeth, and said seriously: "Everyone, I will let you go this time, if you dare to come again, I will be executed directly, and I will honestly go about my own business!" Don't think about asking God to worship Futu, understand??! ”

The people nodded in horror and were driven out by the guards, and the chief led them to the next place.

The guards were still a little frightened, but after following Zhong Changtong to smash a few temples and Taoist temples, there was no fear in their hearts, so one day, the entire sacrificial place in Luoyang was destroyed by Zhong Changtong, so he dismissed the guards and returned to the mansion in a dashing manner, but he didn't know how much chaos his behavior caused in Luoyang.

After the guards returned, they boasted, "Zhong Changjun took us to kill the ghosts and gods, Zhong Changjun stood there, no ghosts and gods dared to harm him..."

"What if the ghosts and gods trouble you?"

"That's right, this, do you want to engrave Zhong Changjun's sculpture and put it at home?"

Zhong Changtong never thought that he himself would one day be made into a sculpture by others and worshipped.
