Yu Qiansi put the cloth bag back into his arms, and the two of them stood up together.
"Let's go and watch."
Along the increasingly lively main street, there were rows of shops all the way. The two of them didn't need to go down specifically. They walked around on the rooftops along the street while observing what was happening on the street at any time.
Within a short time, the crowd gathered in the opposite direction to the fur caravan and the two of them, like a long river flowing into a gorge. There were shouts and complaints among the crowded crowd.
Yu Qiansi stopped, and the sound of chanting Buddhist sutras was distant and distant, as if coming from the bright light on the horizon, like the sound of heaven.
Hearing the movement of the Buddhist scriptures, the crowd became even more excited.
Yu Qiansi walked a few steps quickly and arrived at the location of the caravan. Standing on the roof and looking down, the caravan was like a floating leaf in the heavy rain, trapped in the crowd.
Commander Cui held a whip and shouted, but there was nothing he could do.
The sound of chanting came like a cloud, and the crowds gathered around knelt on the ground, kneeling towards the other side of the long street where the sound of chanting came from.
Boyi turned his head and looked at the other side of the long street, a little anxious: "It seems that we have started early and we will reach this street soon."
Yu Qiansi raised her arm to stop him from going down to respond: "Don't be anxious yet."
Today's matter seems weird, so it would be safer to stop it quietly.
Commander Cui and a group of people who were clearing the way on horseback saw the people kneeling on the ground. They were afraid that the horses would be frightened and hurt, so they jumped off the horses and held on to the reins, but they were helpless as they looked at the people kneeling on the ground.
A group of people stood out in front of the devout believers on the entire street.
Commander Cui thought for a while, handed the reins to his deputy, and turned around to go to the carriage. Without knowing what he said, Jiang Jiqing, who was wearing a hood on the carriage, lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage. Commander Cui protected him and separated the crowd.
Walk towards the street.
Seeing that Commander Cui and Jiang Jiqing were struggling to shuttle among the crowd and were about to disappear under the eaves, Yu Qiansi and Boyi used their strength to jump to the roof across the street and crouched down, just enough to cover the people under the eaves.
The situation is in full view.
Yu Qiansi put her hands on her waist.
Although Commander Cui's move was a good way to get away from the crowd in time, it also exposed Saint Dalala among the crowd. It would be bad if someone with a conspiracy hid among the believers and launched an attack.
She glanced at the other end of the long street again, not to mention what happened today, she always felt a little uneasy.
It is a bitterly cold winter day, and the sky is slowly getting brighter now, but the parade of Buddha statues has almost reached the main street. Why does the Buddhist meeting start early?
But there was no time to think too much. Many believers who had just heard the news gathered from all directions, and the two of them were about to be drowned in the crowd.
Boyi touched her arm and said solemnly: "There are many people following those seven Buddha queens."
At this time, the seven Buddha statues had all turned onto the long street.
The seven Buddha statues are all placed in huge Buddhist niches, surrounded by gauze. The Buddhist niches are placed on a wooden cart, and the powerful men around them pull them with ropes and move forward slowly.
The devout believers knelt down and worshiped on the spot, completely covering the bluestones on the long street. From a height, it looked like clothes filled with cotton wool were woven into a blanket in a strange way.
, covering the entire street.
It's inexplicably creepy.
But when the seven Buddha statues passed by, the originally densely woven blanket would automatically tear open a crack, and then close up again after the procession of Buddha statues passed by.
But what is different from the fur convoy just now is that for the seven Buddha statues, this crowd is like a smooth wind and a calm lake, but for the convoy led by Cui, it is a stormy sea.
Yu Qiansi could still hear the merchants dressed as imperial guards at their feet trying to leave the crowd before the Buddha statue passed by, begging and shouting, but there was still nothing they could do.
Yu Qiansi looked back, tapping her dagger sheath with her fingers unconsciously, feeling a little nervous.
If you don't leave, the Buddha statue will hit the convoy, and the chaos will become even worse.
But if he rashly got into the crowd at this moment, he would probably be left helpless by the crowd.
If we block the procession at this moment, it will be easy for people to follow the whereabouts of the real saint, and it will also easily cause chaos. If a crowd gets angry and a stampede occurs, it will be even harder for the saint in the crowd to be rescued.
However, this not-so-wide street is particularly difficult to walk now. The convoy happened to be at the intersection of the street. Commander Cui took Jiang Jiqing three steps back. He was knocked around by the believers who came after him, but was squeezed closer to the first place.
Respect the Buddha statue.
"Strange, what smells so pungent?" Boyi sneezed and muttered.
Yu Qiansi's heart rang with alarm bells, so he turned around and changed his mind.
First, someone shouted: "Look, Buddha's light!"
A golden-white light suddenly lit up from the third Buddhist niche, causing Boyi and Yu Qiansi to close their eyes unconsciously.
Yu Qiansi held back tears and opened her eyes to look for Jiang Jiqing and Commander Cui in the crowd, but her eyes were all white and she couldn't see anything clearly.
When the golden light dissipated and the vision gradually became clearer, white smoke suddenly rose up around the seven Buddha statues.
At this time, seven Buddhist niches were in the middle of the long street, but within a moment the entire street was enveloped in white smoke.
The crowd that had been excited and agitated by the Buddha's light just now was like a river bursting into chaos, and became chaotic in the pungent smoke.
Yu Qiansi leaned down and tried his best to look, but all he could see was white mist all over the street. The six-sided roofs of the seven Buddhist niches were like seven pieces of duckweed in a fast-flowing place. The mist swirled around the tops of the Buddhist niches.
After a while, seven pieces of driftwood swayed, and only a few loud sounds of the old tree breaking were heard, and the top of the Buddhist niche was half tilted into the white mist.
The invisible crowd finally collapsed after hearing the loud noise. The previously suppressed uneasiness turned into screams one after another, which shocked those who heard it.
The sunken Buddhist shrine stirred up layers of mist, causing the signboards on both sides of the long street to sway slightly, like waterlilies floating on water.
"What should I do?" Boyi was anxious, but he did not dare to act without authorization.
Yu Qiansi stood up and looked around.
Just now she remembered that she had passed by a musical instrument store, and there was a shiny gong hanging on the sign at the door.
The white mist has spread, and the milky mist gradually turns into pearl color, but it is almost gone.
found it!
Not far away, the copper-colored half surface is particularly conspicuous in the skylight.
She drew out her long sword and ordered: "Stay here, stare down, and I'll think of a solution."
She took a breath and jumped lightly to the roof of the musical instrument store, which happened to be next to the half-crooked roof of a Buddhist altar.
At this moment, she didn't care much anymore. She made a clever move with her toes, landed gently on the top of the Buddhist niche, and carefully stepped into the white mist.
Standing on the Buddhist altar, it was like half of her body fell into the mist. At her feet was the endless Shura Abyss. From time to time, evil spirits would make terrifying screams. The pungent smell made her cough repeatedly.
She took a deep breath and sank into the white mist. When she looked carefully, she could only see silhouettes of people under her feet, and there was a lot of blood smell. It seemed that many people were injured.
Yu Qiansi glanced at the black figure on the eaves in the distance. The smell of blood was pungent to his own nose, let alone Boyi.
She didn't dare to delay any longer, so she drew her sword and struck the gong in one go.
A huge gong sounded from the center of the street, and most of the panicked crowds in the fog followed the sound and looked towards the center of the street.
At this time, a gust of wind blew up, blowing away a little of the white fog that was about to rise into the sky. The thick fog turned into a semi-white clear soup color, and everything on the street gradually became distinguishable again.
Amidst the reverberation of the gong, everyone looked at the bright red figure on top of the Buddha statue at the end of the mist.
With her green hair swaying and her hunting robes, she looks like an immortal standing alone in the world.
The woman's Qingyue voice said coldly: "Everyone stands where you are. Those who act rashly will not be protected by the gods and Buddhas!"
