"What are these people doing?" Kao Kao asked in confusion.
Qing Wan shook her head, and saw a black soft sedan not far away, being carried by four people and approaching slowly. Behind the sedan were eight maids wearing black clothes and veils of the same color.
"Who on earth is so powerful that he makes it look like the emperor is on a tour?" Daukou couldn't help but murmured in a low voice.
Qingwan guessed: "Could he be the lord of Baishui City?"
Baishui City is located in the south of the garrison, near the river and the water. It has an advantageous geographical location, developed waterway transportation industry, and the city is relatively prosperous. It is said that it was assigned to a princess who married far away in the south more than 20 years ago as a dowry fief.
.And the current city lord is the son of this princess.
Daukou curled her lips, but still couldn't understand: "Even if he is the city lord, everyone doesn't have to kneel down in front of him, right?
Just as he was talking, he heard someone talking behind him: "Seeing the high priest coming, these two people dare not to kneel down?"
"High Priest?" The master and servant looked at each other, somewhat confused about the situation.
The discussion behind them grew louder and louder, and finally turned into someone shouting directly in their direction: "These two people are disrespectful to the high priest, arrest them."
"Catch it, catch it..." More and more people pointed at them.
Before the master and servant could fully react, they saw a group of people coming up and surrounding them.
Daukou subconsciously approached Qingwan, nervously grabbed Qingwan's sleeves and said, "Miss, what are they going to do?"
Qing Wan said with a helpless expression: "Your crow's mouth made me right."
"Ah?" Daukou was a little confused at first, but when he reacted, his face immediately turned pale.
At this time, a man came out of the crowd, pointed at the master and the servant and said, "Who are you? Why don't you kneel down when you see the priest?"
Qing Wan smiled and explained to everyone: "I'm sorry, everyone, we are new here and didn't know that your place has such rules. I didn't mean to offend your priest, and I hope you can forgive me."
The man snorted coldly, "Priest, you choose auspicious days every month to fast, bathe, and offer sacrifices to the gods to pray for the people of Baishui City. Now that you have violated the priest, you will definitely make the gods displeased and punish the whole city.
People, now we must take you to the altar and wait for the priest's decision."
Dou Kao didn't know where the courage suddenly came from, and he shouted at the man unconvinced: "What priest, what god? It's just some talk about witchcraft and Gu. We are not from your place, why should we do this to you?"
Your priest kneels down? Why do you want to arrest us?"
Qing Wan screamed inwardly, it was too late to stop her, so she could only glare at Nutmeg as if she was angry. This girl, does she know what it means to arouse public outrage? It is estimated that her little life will be ruined sooner or later.
Open your mouth.
Sure enough, the man's face suddenly became more ugly. With a cold face and a stern look in his eyes, he said: "Just because this is Baishui City, anyone who dares to be disrespectful to the priest can be arrested directly and handed over to the priest and the police."
The gods have fallen."
Daukou took a step back and hid behind Qingwan. Although his confidence was slightly lacking, he still said unconvinced to the man: "That is also the god of your side, and it has no control over outsiders. You are not qualified to do that."
