"Those who followed me, after returning to the city, let Li Zheng come over to take people on bail pending trial, and these two people were imprisoned" After finishing speaking, he hugged the little girl and walked back.

When he returned to the mansion, he called Wu Shi Tong and Xu Jingzong over to tell them about the matter, and the two of them were also scared into a cold sweat and shouted luckily.

"Lao Xu, immediately send someone to all the temples and Taoist temples in the city to inspect them all over again, see which temple has Jiao God and Gu God, register it, and preside over the temple in those temples, no matter what, all of them are registered, and go immediately!"

"Promise" Xu Jingzong got up and went out after answering.

After Xu Jingzong went out, Xiao Zheng looked at Wu Shi Tong and said, "Ying Guogong, have there been such incidents under your rule before?" ”。

For the first time, Samurai Tong found that Lord Xiao had become so serious on weekdays, and it was a little scary to be serious.

got up and saluted Xiao Zheng and said: "My lord, Xia Guan has always been in charge of Yizhou, and at that time, I only heard that there were some barbarian Yi people in Nanzhao and other places who behaved like this, but my Han people rarely saw it. Since then, Xia Guan has only seen these people sacrifice with livestock, but this time Xia Guan really does not know about the use of people to sacrifice, please forgive your sins."

"Fortunately, you didn't condone this, otherwise don't blame the official for being ruthless."

Xiao Zheng's words frightened the warrior Tong's heart.

"Don't they want to sacrifice, I'll let them sacrifice well," Xiao Zheng said coldly.

The people of Yangzhou City suddenly saw that Lord Xiao, the governor of Jiangnan, issued a notice that he would publicly sacrifice to the river god and the Gu god in three days, and if the people in the city were interested, they could go and watch, and the time and place were clearly written.

The sensible people in the city felt that after taking office, Lord Xiao suddenly became confused, and somehow thought that the adults believed in the gods, and more people just waited with the mentality of watching the excitement.

Early in the morning three days later, the front of the Yangzhou City Mansion suddenly became lively, and more than 200 people from Yangzhou's large and small witches, gods, and Taoist priests gathered outside the gate of the official mansion.

"My lord, there are fourteen places to worship Jiao God and Gu God inside and outside Yangzhou City, five large Taoist temples are enshrined, and nine small temples are not in the climate, and a total of 173 people are all brought."

"Why aren't there any monks here?" Xiao Zheng asked.

"My lord, Buddhism has not been very powerful in recent years, and it is rare to see monks now," Xu Jingzong replied with some curiosity.

"Count them cheap".

Xiao Zheng looked at these people and said, "Take them all and go!" ”

The people of Yangzhou City suddenly saw a strange scene: Lord Xiao, who said that he was going to worship the Jiao God and the Gu God, did not bring sacrifices, and did not invite Taoist priests and wizards to do it. It's just that dozens of Xuanjia soldiers in front escorted the road, and five hundred soldiers escorted more than 100 Shenhan Taoist priests out of the city gate to the place of worship last time.

This time, the ceremony of having Lord Xiao participate in the worship is much larger than that of a few Taoist priests and gods, and there are only two or three thousand people who go out of the city to see the lively people, and a large number of people stand by the black river.

When they arrived at the shore, Xiao Zheng asked people to set the table of wine and food first, Zheng Xuanli found a boat and threw the meat of the two pigs he had just slaughtered into the water, and after a while, seven or eight crocodiles smelled blood and devoured them in the water.

After pulling the Taoist priest and the wizard over, Xiao Zheng asked the Taoist priest, "What's your name?" ”

"Poor Li Sanqing".

"Have you ever seen the Jiao God and the Gu God," Xiao Zheng asked.

"Xiaodao has seen it in a dream" At the mention of this, Li Sanqing's eyes lit up.

"So you know them well?"

"That's natural, please let me go, otherwise no one can afford to blame Jiaoshen and Gu God."

"You fucking are still scaring Lao Tzu at this time, that is, Wang Yuanzhi and Yuan Shoucheng, the two magic sticks, saw Lao Tzu politely, you really don't know whether you live or die. Well, you invite him out for me, and I'll have a drink with him."

"My lord, your level is not enough, those are immortals and not mortals," Li Sanqing said with his eyes rolling.

"Am I not good enough? Lao Tzu's top boss is today's sage, do you say my level is not enough? You can't see me even if you are a flat-headed person, joke, hurry up! Xiao Zheng pointed at this guy and said.

"My lord, how do you get there?" Li Sanqing looked around and asked.

"Go down! Go into the water and call those two bullshit gods to Lao Tzu," Xiao Zheng said, pointing to the water.

"My lord, how can this make the villain go down and be torn apart by this thing" Li Sanqing immediately understood what was going on, and his face immediately turned pale with fright and said in a cold sweat.

"You dare to let her go down a little girl, just now I told the official that you are familiar with the Jiao God and the Gu God, how dare its disciples and grandchildren hurt you? How can this not be? Xiao Zheng said with a smile in Li Sanqing's tone.

"Come on, throw him down, and let this Taoist master go and invite two gods to come up for me."

"Adult, I can't help it, the villain admits his mistake, the villain will never do this foolish thing again, save the adult and let the villain go" The guy struggled and cried.

The four soldiers who came over ignored him, lifted him up and put him on Zheng Xuanli's boat, and threw him down when he got to the place where there was a crocodile.

"Help! Ahh Only scraps of clothing remained floating above the water, and the water in the pond had been dyed a dark red.

I saw Xiao Zheng watching the crocodile in the pond biting Li Sanqing's face without changing color, still drinking two sips of wine and eating and drinking with chopsticks.

It's nothing for him to do this, but it's different in the eyes of others.

It turned out that Xu Jingzong and Wu Shi Tong thought that Lord Xiao was harmless to humans and animals on weekdays, but no one expected that this master would be ruthless and not afraid of ghosts, and he could still eat and drink in the face of such a bloody scene, which is not something that ordinary people can do.

No wonder this master can provoke Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji to death in Xuanwu Gate, he is really a ruthless character!

When there was no movement below, he hooked his finger at the wizard, and the two soldiers carried the wizard to Xiao Zheng.

"What's your name," Xiao Zheng asked with a smile.

"Please be gracious!" This wizard saw Xiao Zheng as if he had seen a demon.

"What's your name, I ask?"

"Small, villain, called Zhu Dachang," the man said tremblingly.

"Why don't you let the pig go into the water? But it's okay, it's good to feed the crocodile by the name, and throw him down," Xiao Zheng instructed the soldier.

"Adult, villain has something to say," the guy struggled.

I saw Zhu Dachang standing still and pointing to the two people in the crowd of wizards and Taoist priests and said: "That virtual Taoist priest and Yang Dazhu presided over the sacrifice to the crocodile god and the Gu god the year before last, and the villain remembered that the two of them also chose a pair of boys and girls and threw them into this pond, why don't the adults look for them but only trouble the villain?" The villain is not convinced! ”。
