My Taoist buddy has practiced surrogacy

Chapter 185 Make trouble
When he returned to Beidi County, passed the Zhongzheng test in Beidi County, officially became a ninth-rank white-clothed monk, and received the brocade robe symbolizing the status of a monk from Zhongzheng, he trembled with excitement.

From a commoner to a monk, this is the biggest dream of countless commoners in Dajin, and this is the most beautiful thing that Lei Xu could have imagined since he was a child.

Ten years have passed, and now Lei Xu is an eighth-rank gray-robed monk, but the awe of officials in his bones is still branded on him.Every time he saw officials passing by, he would subconsciously run to both sides of the road and bend over to stand there.Every time, the servant he bought stopped him and reminded his master, you are already a dignified monk, you are no longer a commoner.

Every time at this time, he would hide his embarrassment by laughing loudly, and was proud of his status as a monk.Since he became a monk, he spent a lot of money to ask those senior monks to explain to him the style and exquisiteness of those so-called monks.After he became a monk, the businessmen who had dealt with him all the year round in Luonan City in the past met him, and he must put on a monk's demeanor.

Greeting with a smile?Are you kidding me, how can a master monk greet a commoner?
Equal?That's even more impossible.Those businessmen who were acquainted with each other in the past had to follow the etiquette every time they met Lei Xu.You have to bend over to talk to Lei Xu.

No one dared to say that what Lei Xu did was wrong.

Even these people are even more affectionate when they see Lei Xu, and look at Lei Xu even more eagerly.

So, after repeatedly confirming that the letter of appointment in Shen Hui's hand was not a joke to him (Lei Xu could not read), poor Lei Xu gushed out old phlegm on the spot, and fell down straight like that.

It was thanks to his younger brother pinching him hard and pressing his chest that he woke up slowly.

From that day on, every day when he woke up, he had to pinch himself several times to confirm whether he was dreaming.

But even dreaming, this beautiful dream is too outrageous.

It's just a dream, it's best not to wake up from this dream, and let him live in this dream forever.

This is Sili Captain, this is the position in charge of countless lives and deaths of Sili.

Moreover, this position can often meet the emperor and his elders.

emperor!

Son of Heaven!

Every time he thinks that one day he will be able to see with his own eyes the legendary emperor who is the reincarnation of a real dragon, Lei Xu's old phlegm can't help welling up, which often makes him cough endlessly.

It seems that the Feng Shui master I hired with a lot of money last time is really a master.Ever since I moved my ancestral grave, my fate is simply a stroke of luck.

Well, no.This is not enough.One day, I will go to the Qingyun Taoist Temple on Mang Mountain again, and invite some magic tools to pay tribute to my ancestors, so that their spirits in the sky can bless me to continue to be promoted and make a fortune.

The summer sun is shining in the sky, making the air seem like a heat wave, which makes people feel upset.

"Second Brother, how is it? How many people are here in our Sili Mansion?" Lei Xu asked immediately when he saw a man with a short figure, round face and small eyes coming in from the door.

Ever since Shen Xiu's order to recruit male monks over 15 years old was sent to Sili Captain's mansion early in the morning, Lei Xu has been frowning.He has been in business for so many years, how can he not understand the importance of this.It's just that on the one hand, he didn't dare to disobey Shen Xiu's orders at all, and on the other hand, he was always quick-witted.Crisis crisis, both danger and opportunity.

"Maybe it's a good opportunity to make a fortune." Lei Xu immediately asked his younger brother to lead some people to paste the notices all over the streets and alleys of Shangluo City.Ever since Shen Xiu replaced Fu Xian as the Captain of Sili, some of the subordinates in Sili's Mansion found various reasons not to come to work.And when Lei Xu replaced Shen Xiu as the captain of Sili, how could those subordinates who were originally outstanding men endure such humiliation to serve such a businessman who just climbed up from the bottom and didn't understand anything.On Lei Xu's first day in office, there was a pile of resignation letters on his desk, all of them resigned and returned home under the pretext of family problems or health problems.

Lei Xu was shocked at first, and then overjoyed.

In addition to recruiting his two younger brothers into Sili Xiaowei's mansion as subordinates, he also openly sold officials in his Nanshi business circle.In this day alone, he earned back the property he gave to Shen Xiu.

With this experience, although he knew in his heart that Shen Xiu's order was too offensive, but on the other hand, he hoped that those people would be smarter, as long as they gave money, everything could be done.

Although Lei Xu has only been an official for a few days, he has already realized something in his heart: everything is a business, and it is not difficult to be an official. Treat it as a business, everything is that simple.

Lei Xu doesn't care about whether or not all of this conforms to the Jiupin Zhongzheng System.He also doesn't know anything about the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng System.In his eyes, there are only two things: superiors and subordinates.For his boss, he must obey his words and be respectful.For his subordinates, he can live or die as he pleases.

This is Lei Xu's life experience for so many years.This is also the reason why he was able to go from a poor frontier poor to today's majestic Sili captain of the imperial court.

After completing this vote, I will go back to my hometown in the Northland and forget it. The money I earned may not be spent in a few lifetimes.

"Brother," his second brother Lei Chong said with a bitter face, "this morning, less than 200 people came back and forth. And some people saw that there were only such a few people, and they all left. Now there are only a few people left. Less than 100 people."

"Why didn't you stop them?" Lei Xu said angrily.There is no reason for the fat that has been sent to the mouth to let it slip away.

"Brother, they are all monks, I dare not stop them." Lei Chong said timidly.

"Useless guy." Lei Xu scolded his younger brother, "We are the dignified captains of Sili. No matter how high their rank is, as long as they are in Sili in Shangluo, they have to be under our control. They are afraid of us, why not?" There is a reason why we are afraid of them."

Looking at his younger brother's hesitant gaze, Lei Xu sighed inwardly.

To be honest, he understood how his brother felt.Although he has put on the skin of Captain Sili, he is still afraid of those high-ranking monks in his bones.After all, he has been a commoner for so many years, and his fear of monks has penetrated into his bones.If those people started fighting at the slightest disagreement, Lei Xu couldn't think of how to deal with it. He knew in his heart that his cultivation was at the level of those at the end of the Great Jin Dynasty.

He rolled his eyes and suddenly thought of an idea.

"Second brother, go, take people to Nanshi to catch people, no matter what, at least two thousand people have to come out today, otherwise I won't be able to do business with Mr. Shen."

"Brother," Lei Chong's face became even more bitter when he heard his words, "We don't know where the South City is? How many monks can there be there?"

"Cut, who said that only monks are caught." Lei Xu confidently scolded his rotten younger brother, "As long as it is a man, it's fine. Your elm brain can't be opened up, and this also requires me. Teach you? It's really mud that can't support the wall."

"Brother," Lei Chong showed hesitation, "We have known each other for so many years, isn't this pushing people into the fire pit?"

"Lei Chong," Lei Xu said angrily when he heard the words, "Are you my younger brother? Who has supported our Lei family for so many years? Who earned your food and drink? Now you Pretending to be a good guy? Am I that villain? People don’t work for themselves, and heaven and earth will destroy them. If your elder brother can’t do this job today, Mr. Shen will immediately withdraw your elder brother’s position. When someone else takes the stage, you will still have to arrest someone to take the head. At that time," Lei Xu sneered a few times, and continued, "I'm afraid they will use our family to fill the head."

"Second brother," he sighed, patted Lei Chong on the shoulder and said, "I don't want to arrest those old neighbors who have been in the neighborhood for many years, but if we don't arrest them, we have to fill this fire pit. What is going on in this world? Did you become like this? It wasn’t like this before. Your elder brother is suffering too, but what can you do? Tell me, what should elder brother do?”

Seeing his younger brother's face flushed and he hesitated, he patted his younger brother on the shoulder and said, "Fortunately, these are just the old neighbors in Shangluo. Second brother, eldest brother has decided to finish the job." With this ticket, we will go back to our Northland, to our hometown. From then on, we will never have any contact with people from Shangluo. Your elder brother has already thought about it, and then we will buy hundreds of acres of grassland from us. , and buy some barbarian slaves for us to herd horses and sheep. Do you think it’s okay?"

"Okay, I'll listen to the big brother." Lei Chong nodded firmly, went out and summoned enough people to bring the shackles and chains all the way to Nanshi.

A group of people like him came to Shangluonan City aggressively, which immediately caused a commotion.Seeing that the terrified expressions on these familiar faces had suppressed the cries, Lei Chong suppressed the discomfort in his heart and stood there with a cold face, directing his soldiers to keep tying people up.

Suddenly, a cold voice sounded from behind him, "How can there be an official like you in the majestic land of Shangluo, under the feet of the Son of Heaven? When did Sili Xiaowei's mansion become so overbearing?"

Lei Chong turned his head suddenly, and saw a tall monk standing not far away with his arms folded.Just look at this person's pair of sword eyebrows like flying knives, his eyes shining like cold stars, his tall and straight figure with ape arms and bear waist, and he is wearing a brown brocade robe impressively.

A fear from the deepest part of his heart instinctively occupied Lei Chong's whole body, and suddenly there was a strong urge to urinate in his crotch, and he almost bent his knees to the ground.

But at this moment, he remembered what his elder brother said to him just now, coughed a few times to relieve his fear, and shouted calmly: "Sili Xiaowei's mansion is here to do business. Anyone who has nothing to do will leave as soon as possible.”

"May I ask why Sili Xiaowei's Mansion is here to arrest someone?" This person is Chen Rong, and there are dozens of close friends who are planning to make trouble with him standing behind him.

"The emperor has an edict, haven't you seen it?"

"The edict of the Son of Heaven is for monks to report to Sili Xiaowei's Mansion, but why are you arresting these civilians?" Chen Rong was actually quite depressed.He couldn't wait to take the opportunity to make a big fuss, but he didn't expect that there was no movement in Sili Xiaowei's mansion until noon, until Lei Chong came out with a group of people in a hurry.He thought that the opportunity came, and Captain Sili finally couldn't bear to act forcefully, but he didn't think it was forceful, but the target was not monks but civilians.

"These cowards only bully the weak and fear the strong." Chen Rong cursed in his heart, but he had no choice but to speak out, and he finally spoke up.

Lei Chong was originally an ordinary person, and he just ran errands for his brother on weekdays, how could he deal with this kind of thing.When Chen Rong asked him a rhetorical question, he stood there dumbfounded on the spot.After a while, he mustered up his courage again and said, "Why don't you wait for the monks to report to the Sili Captain's Mansion? Could it be that you want to resist the order?"

"Anti-decree?" Chen Rong sneered, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Look at the world, what it looks like to be destroyed by that regicide. From the court to the city, there is no place of peace. A Langyazi, a regicide, can issue orders in the name of the Son of Heaven in a grand manner?"

Speaking of this, Chen Rong pulled out the long sword from his waist with a bang. The sword was covered with dense runes and shone with blue light. It was the famous sword worn by Chen Ziyin when he was in the world: Dragon Slaying Sword.He flicked his wrist slightly, and the Zhanlongjian immediately made a sound like a dragon chant. He could only hear Lei Chong's crotch tightening, and then his crotch became hot, and a stream of heat flowed down his trouser legs. Kneeling there unconsciously.

Chen Rong first cast a contemptuous glance at this suddenly wealthy and trembling commoner, and then raised his arms and shouted: "Shen Xiu is a rebellious and rebellious man, and anyone who is willing to go to King Wen's Mansion with me, Chen Rong, to attack Shen Xiu, can go with me. "

Let's say that Chen Rong led all his followers all the way from Nanshi to King Wen's Mansion. Not only were there no patrolling soldiers on the way to stop him, but his team was getting bigger and bigger.When they arrived in front of King Wen's Mansion, there were already 2000 people coming, and the mighty momentum was overwhelming.When the guards in Shenxiu's mansion saw this kind of momentum, most of them dispersed, only a few people resisted a few times, but under the attack of so many people, these resistances disappeared without even a single wave.

Just as everyone was searching the rooms one by one in all directions, there was a sudden loud noise, and the roof of a room was broken vigorously, and then a dark thing leaped out from the broken roof.

Everyone looked closely, only to see that this thing was gleaming with black light all over its body, and it was unknown what kind of metal it was made of.It's tall enough to be one foot three four, and its arms made of metal are thicker than the thighs of ordinary monks.The head is not big, but the four ears on the top stand up high like small flagpoles.The front end of the ear is bent at [-] degrees, round, and the inside seems to be inlaid with transparent glass, which looks like both an ear and an eye, which is very strange.

"What the hell is this?" Almost everyone had never seen such a thing before, and many of them couldn't help but turn pale with shock.

"It's a puppet!" Chen Rong knew this thing, he had seen this kind of thing in a book at home before, but it hadn't appeared in the world since he was born, but he didn't want to encounter it here . "Shen Xiu must be inside this puppet."

"Hahahaha," hearing Chen Rong's words, a burst of laughter came from the puppet's chest, and what everyone heard was Shen Xiu's voice, "Chen Rong, you and I are a teacher and a student, and you don't do things for me. That's all, why gather people to take the lead in making trouble today."
