Start with the gods

Chapter 41

Guo Yu admired the emperor Zhao Xu very much. In history, the time when he was really in charge was actually only seven or eight years.

But in such a short period of time, he vigorously reformed and restored Wang Anshi's reform policy, and Song Dynasty had a good start, even defeating Xixia, a powerful enemy.

It's a pity that he died young after all, unable to realize his ambition.

"Sir, you said that you are from Jianghu, so can you tell me something about martial arts?" Seeing that Guo Yu was no longer able to become an official in the court, Zhao Xu relaxed the topic.

Of course Guo Yu would not refuse, he was in high spirits today and was willing to talk more with the little emperor.

"Sir, it seems that the Jianghu is as dangerous as the officialdom." After listening to the martial arts story told by Guo Yu vividly, Zhao Xu's complexion became more and more ugly.

It would be strange to be happy if such ambitious actions of the Murong family were heard by an emperor.

"Sir, if you like idle clouds and wild cranes, roaming the rivers and lakes, I will not force you to enter the officialdom."

Zhao Xu thought for a long time, then raised his eyebrows and said: "But I hope that sir can help me keep an eye on these Jianghu gangs and martial arts families, they are too destructive."

"Your Majesty's words remind me of an idea." Guo Yu had an idea, "You can set up an organization to deal with martial arts affairs, which can be regarded as a supervisory role."

"Mr. has a very good plan!" Zhao Xu patted the table heavily, and the wine was so shaken that he spilled out of the cup, "That's what I mean."

No emperor who wants to make a difference can remain indifferent after knowing the momentum of Wulin, and it is inevitable to find a way to target management.

A Jianghu gang like the Beggar Clan, which can easily recruit tens of thousands of people, would make any emperor not feel chilled.

"How about this, sir is in charge of setting up this department, you only need to be responsible to me, and you don't need to obey anyone else's command."

Zhao Xu suggested: "With your ability, I believe it won't take much effort."

"Well, well, then follow what His Majesty said." Guo Yu accepted the task after thinking about it.

It is really not difficult to set up this organization, and by the way, you can get a nominal official status. No matter what happens in the world, you will have a good excuse in the future.

"Your Majesty, I plan to call the new institution the God of Catchers, which will specialize in vicious incidents in the Jianghu."

Now that he agreed, Guo Yu immediately offered a plan, "We can choose to absorb some martial arts knights with clean backgrounds in the world, or even gangsters.

Coupled with some people from the public sect, based on them, branches in various state capitals are established. I believe that even if they cannot control the rivers and lakes, they can respond quickly to emergencies. "

"Okay, then proceed according to the plan." Of course Zhao Xu would not refuse.

He called the guards to bring pens and paper on the spot, wrote a letter of appointment in hand, stamped his private seal, and formally canonized Guo Yu as the commander of the god arresting gate.

He also took out a piece of jade pendant that he carried with him and handed it to Guo Yu, with the word 'servant' engraved on it, which was the proof that Zhao Xu was once the royal family of the Zhao family.

"Sir, no matter what happens in the future, you can use this jade pendant to enter the palace gate, and no one dares to stop you."

"Okay, don't worry, Your Majesty, our God Catchment Gate will be established soon, and we will start working quickly." Guo Yu solemnly promised.

……

Zhao Xu's actions were quick. On the second day after returning to the palace, he officially notified the imperial court to establish the God Catchment Gate, and specially granted a courtyard next to the Imperial City Division as a residence.

Although the top officials of the imperial court were at odds with Zhao Xu, they never paid attention to the Jianghu, so they would not be in trouble with Zhao Xu because of this matter, and they recognized this department.

Guo Yu did not delay, and followed Zhao Xu, fulfilling his duties as the commander of the magic sect, preparing to select his subordinates.

The rivers and lakes and the imperial court are still too alienated, they are like two worlds with little contact, and they control each other's territory.

But the imperial court is the biggest power in the world after all, so it naturally has an appeal that other powers don't have.

It only took more than ten days, and the originally cold God's Catchment Gate was full of people, and it was extremely noisy.

"Today is the day for our God Catcher to select official members."

Guo Yu stood expressionlessly on the built arena, and said to the many people around who came from the area around Kaifeng.

Among these people were the policemen from the government, the instructors from the imperial army, and some martial arts masters who came after hearing the news.

"Our name is God Catcher, so our members must be the best of the best, to complete tasks that ordinary people cannot do."

Guo Yu continued: "Therefore, today we will set up a ring here and hold a martial arts assessment. I hope everyone can go all out and achieve good results."

In this way, Guo Yu sat in front of the stage for a whole morning, and finally eliminated more than 100 people to only 12 people.

"Very good, the 12 of you finally stayed to the end, congratulations on becoming a member of God's Catcher."

Guo Yuhuan looked at everyone for a week, "Although Shenchamen is a newly established department, it is unknown, but I believe that its name will become famous all over the world in the near future, and you will definitely not regret joining.

Starting today, the 12 of you will be in charge of the Jianghu affairs in the entire Gyeonggi region, and clean up all kinds of Jiangyang thieves. "

Guo Yu looked up at the younger one in the crowd, and said loudly: "Zhang Huai, you will be the captain, Lin Chong, Bai Tong, and Li Tai will be the deputy, and the four of you will be in charge of the operation of the entire God Catchment Sect."

"Yes, sir, we will obey."

That's right, this Lin Chong is the leopard-headed Lin Chong that almost everyone knows in later generations.

At this time, he was not yet 20 years old and had just left the army. He was originally planning to become a member of the imperial army, but he was unexpectedly dragged here by his friends to participate in the competition.

Although he is young, he has practiced martial arts extremely solidly, and his foundation is very solid.

It's just that his experience is shallow. After Guo Yu's training and experience for a few years, he will definitely become a person who will shock the world.

Guo Yu sent the others away, leaving the four young captains standing on the ring.

"The four of you, to be honest, your skill is not very good. If you use one word to describe it, it is ordinary."

Guo Yu commented earnestly, "But after all, you are young, and your foundation is still solid. If you practice hard for a few years, you should have a place in the arena.

From today on, just call me teacher, and I will personally guide the four of you in martial arts. "

"Yes, teacher." Before the martial arts competition started, Guo Yu played a few times for Liwei himself, impressing everyone, and they were of course very happy.

"Lin Chong, your spear skills are good, so I won't teach you the moves." Guo Yu looked at Lin Chong and handed him a cheat book, "This is the Nine Suns Magic Art, which has a good miraculous effect on internal energy cultivation. In the future, you Focus on practicing this book."

"Yes, teacher." Young Lin Chong's face was pale and beardless, with a strand of fluff on his lips.

Guo Yu turned around and looked at a [-]-year-old girl, and also handed a book, "Bai Tong, you are the youngest, so you should diligently practice the Nine Yin Internal Strength and the White Python Whip Technique, and just dabble in other moves."

"Teacher, I understand."

The little girl was born in a family of the Kaifeng Forbidden Army, her eyebrows are full of heroism, but she smiles very shyly.

In fact, it's a bit funny to say that she came to God's Catcher to escape the marriage contract arranged for her by her family.

"Zhang Huai, you are the oldest, with a calm personality and a great talent for spells, so I will pass on your unique skill of armor shielding."

Guo Yu then looked at the other two, "The last one is Li Tai, you have a lot of understanding in the way of swordsmanship, so the teacher bestowed you with a masterful swordsmanship."

He took out Huang Yaoshi's Qimen Wuzhuan and Dugu Nine Swords from his bosom, together with the Nine Yin Manual, and handed them over to them.

"Zhang Huai, Li Tai, you are a little older, you should pay more attention to internal strength cultivation, and practice the Nine Yin Manual diligently sooner or later, and you must never relax."

After Guo Yu passed the martial arts cheats to the four, he finally told them before leaving, "Zhang Huai, you have worked as a government servant in Kaifeng Mansion for several years, and you have certain experience in handling cases. If you have time, please hand them over to the three of them."

"Yes, we will remember what the teacher said." The four saluted respectfully.

Seeing this scene, Guo Yu couldn't help but smile with relief.

The four of them are not very old, the oldest is only in his early twenties, and they are all still at the moment when their lives are about to bloom.

Guo Yu believes that after his own training, the four people with good qualifications will have very good achievements.

In the future, Jin Yong's version of the Four Famous Captures may appear in the world of Song Dynasty.

As for the newly-listed institution, Shencatching Gate, it will surely frighten the people in the Jianghu who do not behave well in the future.

Just a few days after the Shenhua Sect was on the right track, one day the emperor came to see Guo Yu privately.
