The whole weird world is waiting for me to go to heaven
Chapter 686: The Priest's Trip
Chapter 686: The Priest's Trip
Liu Sheng and Taibai Jianxian chose the most luxurious inn in the city among the inns recommended by Sanjar so that Bai Ma could have a good rest for a day.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the two of them also took a walk around Sudan City and admired this capital city in the northern desert.
Especially Liu Sheng, who had never been to Sudan. Although he had set foot in Mobei twice, once in the middle of the night in another world and the other time in high-dimensional analysis, both times were not even a half-day trip.
Seeing the customs and culture of this place that were completely different from those of the Tang Dynasty, she was naturally filled with curiosity.
In the Tang Dynasty, most buildings have blue tiles and brick walls, with flying eaves and pointed corners, and are stacked and undulating; while the houses in Mobei are mostly made of earth and stone, painted snow-white on the outside, with thick snow covering the roofs. From a distance, they look like round or square white blocks piled together.
In the street markets, the cries of vendors can be heard one after another, the air is filled with the aroma of milk tea and roasted lamb, and occasionally the sound of horse hooves echoes in the wide streets.
Most of the shops are felt tents, with snow-white curtains fluttering in the wind, blocking out the sand and snow.
In the wind and snow, the entire Sudan City exudes a sacred and pure atmosphere.
The two walked to a cheese shop on the street, bought milk skin and cheese tea, and sat down to taste them slowly.
The shop is open, facing the street, with only a layer of white gauze curtain and no solid walls, so you can see the noisy street scene outside.
"This is just the outer city. There is also the inner city, which is quiet and clean, completely different from the bustling and complicated outer city." Taibai Sword Immortal traveled around the world and came to Mobei Sudan. Recalling what he saw and heard back then, he said, "I think this should be similar in this world."
[It should be the difference between rich areas and poor areas. 】
"Then the Mobei Temple should be in the inner city." Liu Sheng said thoughtfully.
"I think it is... Look, it's right there." Taibai Sword Immortal pointed to the high place outside the gauze curtain. "The inner city is higher than the outer city. Those golden-roofed buildings above should be the temple, and there is also the palace of the king's city."
Liu Sheng looked in the direction he was pointed at. High up in the center of Sudan City was a golden dome that was shining even in the wind and snow.
At this moment, a loud shout was heard from outside: "The priest is on the move, please make way!"
As the words fell, the pedestrians on the street moved away and stood respectfully on both sides, making way for a wide dirt path.
The people who were originally sitting in the shop eating cheese also looked in curiously, and seemed to have really seen something. They immediately stood up excitedly and ran outside to greet him.
"It's actually a priest!"
"This is a rare visitor from the outer city!"
"Yeah...but I've been seeing it more often lately!"
"I heard that with the onset of winter, more people are contracting strange diseases."
"I don't think it's because winter has arrived..."
"Shh, be careful with your words."
"Anyway, the priest is merciful..."
Liu Sheng and Taibai Sword Immortal looked at each other, revealed some curiosity, and looked outside.
I saw a sedan chair with white gauze fluttering slowly coming from a distance.
The sedan chair was carried by four divine servants, and another divine servant was shouting in front to clear the way. A priest in a white robe was sitting leisurely on it.
He was wearing a white robe and had an extremely elongated horse face with a hint of arrogance between his eyebrows. His hair was braided into long braids that fell to his waist, and there were two gold edges on his cuffs.
[This is completely different from the Tang Dynasty priests wearing tall hair crowns. ]
When the priest passed by, many people standing on both sides bowed deeply, and many even knelt on the ground, silently praying.
Liu Sheng and Taibai Sword Immortal naturally sat still, watching from afar.
"It seems that this priest is in high spirits today." Taibai Sword Immortal said with a smile. Liu Sheng nodded slightly. He saw that the priest was tossing the brocade bag in his hand while humming a tuneless little song, and he seemed to be in a very good mood.
As the sedan chair moved farther and farther away, the two people's view was gradually blocked by the crowd.
"I thought the Tang priests were already powerful enough, but I didn't expect them to be even more powerful in Mobei." Taibai Sword Immortal sighed in a low voice.
Liu Sheng nodded, agreeing with it deeply.
……
Under the admiring gazes of the crowd, the priest's sedan chair moved farther and farther away, and finally quietly turned into a narrow alley.
"I wonder what that girl can bring me this time..."
The priest sneered in a low voice, stroking the brocade bag in his hand with his fingers, as if he was thinking about something.
The servant of God who was leading the way was obviously of a high status. He came over and said, "Lord Haik is wise and powerful. The girl has been thinking about it for a few days. She should know how to make the right choice."
This person is none other than the priest Haik who just came out from Sanjar’s house.
After hearing this, Hayik smiled slightly, obviously liking what he said very much.
"She is good-looking and smart. In this situation, who else can protect her? Do we still have to count on that Ai Bo who dares not show up?" Priest Hayik said lightly.
"Yes, of course, your Excellency! How can Priest Aibo compare to your Excellency?" The leading servant of God took the opportunity to flatter him.
As they were chatting and laughing, the two of them gradually stopped smiling.
As we walked deeper into the dirt alley, we saw a foul smell everywhere and sewage flowing all over the ground.
Several servants of God covered their mouths and noses, and Priest Hayik vomited several times and almost rolled his eyes.
“What’s going on? Even though this is a slum, it didn’t stink so bad the last time we came here.” The leading servant of God frowned and said.
"Forget it, I won't go in for now. You go and take a look at the situation." Priest Hayik, who had just been put down, sat in the sedan chair, took out a handkerchief to cover his nose, and waved his hand impatiently and gave the order.
This "you" does not refer to anyone specifically.
But the leading servant of God immediately became arrogant, glanced coldly at the four people beside the sedan chair, and tapped his finger lightly. The four people hurriedly lowered their heads and avoided his gaze.
Finally, the servant of God pointed his finger at the one on the far left.
"You go."
The servant of God on the far left suddenly raised his head, his face gloomy, and clenched his fists, obviously feeling very dissatisfied.
However, the servant in front of him had won the favor of the priest Hayik and had an extraordinary status, so even if he was unwilling, he had to obey his orders.
The other servants of God lowered their heads, fearing that they would be in trouble.
The leading servant snorted coldly. Seeing the servant with a face full of dissatisfaction finally walk into the yard tremblingly, he felt happy. He turned around and walked towards the priest Haik who was already standing very far away, and said, "Report to the priest, I have asked Xiaowu to go in and take a look."
"Xiao Wu..." Priest Haik curled his lips slightly, revealing a hint of sneer, "Are you taking this opportunity to take revenge?"
"How could that be? I am only considering the best interests of the Lord." The servant whispered, "He is the one who has made the greatest contribution to our temple. I believe the Supreme God will definitely protect him..."
As he spoke, the servant of God quietly suppressed the sarcasm on his lips.
Xiao Wu quickly disappeared at the gate of the courtyard, followed by a sharp scream.
Then it stopped abruptly.
