The parade is divided into four parts, after a week around the city, a prayer to the shrine, a parade out of the river after the blessing, and finally a bonfire, which has been the case for many years.

This is by no means Luo Wei's first time on a tour, but it is the first time he has been so nervous, he can't find the third elder and the fourth elder, he can't contact Chang Hu, the twelve deacons have long been dissatisfied with him, Qingyue has disappeared mysteriously, and what's worse is that he and you know it clearly, Chang Yu and they will choose to act today, when the time comes, how should he deal with it?

Luo Wei's legs were stiff, and even a little trembling, although his face was calm and calm, but his heart was already flustered, but he could only bite the bullet, the only thing to rely on was that Chang Hu would never let him have an accident.

The carriage of the city lord's parade is not capped, there is a round curtain on it, the surrounding tulle is woven of fine silk, bound with gold wire, and the four corners of the chariot are placed with four jade carved beasts, each of which has a glass lamp in its mouth, the whole chariot is very luxurious, just from the external decoration, you can see the wealth and nobility of Qinglong City, and the luxury of Luo Wei, the city lord.

Surrounded by Yahuan, Luo Wei sat on the gold-carved throne in the center of the chariot, and twenty maids also stood on the chariot, standing evenly around the throne in the middle.

The tour around the city was surprisingly smooth, so smooth that Luo Wei felt incredible, both sides of the road were crowded with the citizens of Qinglong City, whether they were rich or poor, whether high or low, they were all lined up on both sides waiting for the car to come, every time the car came out, the city people on both sides of the gate knelt down collectively, saying that the auspicious words of wishing Qinglong City prosperity and inexhaustible, and the city lord being healthy and long.

Luo Wei was so nervous that his hands were stiff at first, and his eyes scanned the crowd in a panic, as if he was looking for something, but at this moment, a maid beside him fed him a piece of pastry, Luo Wei raised his head and looked at the maid, only then did he realize that the maid was secretly reminding him to pay attention to his manners, he settled down, tidied up his clothes, and then calmed down.

It turned out that Luo Wei was nervous in vain this time, except for the cheers and bows of the enthusiastic citizens of Qinglong City, nothing happened, no ambush, no provocation, let alone assassination, Luo Wei couldn't help but wonder, was he too nervous to come, Chang Yu They didn't dare to act at all?

The accident-prone parade passed peacefully, Luo Wei had all kinds of doubts in his heart, but he couldn't get out, and he had nowhere to ask, surrounded by the people of the city, he drove to the temple, and next, it was the sacrifice and blessing link.

Luo Wei obviously hasn't recovered from the smooth just now, but no one will notice whether he is ready, the auspicious time of the sacrifice cannot be missed, Luo Wei is not awake in a daze, he has already been surrounded and stood on the high platform, looking down, there is a dense crowd of people below the high platform, because the high platform is ten stories high, so you can see all the citizens of Qinglong City.

Maybe the three elders and the four elders were acting in secret, and Chang Hu had already dealt with Chang Yu's people, Luo Wei explained to himself the smooth way of patrolling the city.

Unlike the previous bustle and noise, the front of the temple was solemn, and everyone's face was full of reverence and awe, no one whispered, no one looked around, they held their heads high, and their eyes looked firmly at the high platform where Lowe stood.

On the high platform, the twelve deacons attended in full costume, neatly arranged in two columns, and stood quietly behind Luo Wei.

At this moment, there is only one word to describe the scene.

Quiet!

Only the wind whirring, the rustling of fallen leaves, and the steady breathing of people.

The lord of the temple respectfully handed the three lit incense sticks to Luo Wei, Luo Wei reached out to take it, walked to the edge of the high platform, looked down at the citizens below, held the incense in both hands, and bowed deeply to them.

Almost at the same time, the citizens of the city knelt down under the high platform in unison, folded their hands, spread on the ground, their heads rested on their hands, and shouted in unison: "God bless Qinglong City, long live the city lord!" ”

The voice was deafening, and it was shouted three times, and the whole temple echoed with this simple sentence.

When the echo faded away, the entire temple was silent again.

But the silence did not last long, and the crowd did not know who shouted, and the silence was like a fine brocade, which was forced to open a gap.

"Why didn't you see Lord Qingyue?"

The sound was not too loud, but in this extremely quiet situation, the sound was particularly abrupt, and everyone present could hear it really clearly, and for a while, the citizens who were prostrate on the ground looked at the high platform in unison.

On the high platform were the men of the temple, and there were the guards and maids of Lowe, and there were twelve deacons, but...... Only I didn't see Qingyue.

The people were silent for a few seconds before the pot exploded.

"Yes, I haven't seen Lord Qingyue from beginning to end today."

"The city lord promised before, this parade will be presided over by Lord Qingyue, why haven't you seen Lord Qingyue until now?"

"There is also a promise made when the city lord succeeds him, he is only temporarily replacing Lord Qingyue to succeed to the position of city lord, and when Lord Qingyue is well, he will return the position of city lord to Lord Qingyue, after all, Lord Qingyue is the orthodox heir of Qinglong City."

"Having said that, we haven't seen Lord Qingyue for a long time, at first because the little master was born, and then it was said that Lord Qingyue was weak and needed to be conditioned, but it's been so long, and our Lord Qingyue hasn't shown his face once, if you want to say that your body is too bad, you won't even show your face, right?"

"Yes, we haven't seen Qingyue for a long time, do you think it will ......?"

“……”

No one dared to say the latter words, but this does not mean that they have no bottom in their hearts, in the final analysis, although Luo Wei is now the city lord of Qinglong City, he is not popular at all.

Luo Wei stood on the high platform awkwardly, still holding the three sticks of incense in his hand, but anyone who was a little closer to him could clearly see that the three sticks of incense in his hand were trembling slightly, curling smoke, twisting and turning, rising.

At this time, Luo Wei couldn't wait for his internal strength to be weak and his hearing was not good, but unfortunately although his martial arts were not called majestic, they were also not to be underestimated.

Luo Wei looked back and saw that the twelve deacons who were originally standing behind him all had their hands on their chests, looking at him for a long time, looking like they were watching a good show.

Since Luo Wei succeeded as the city lord of Qinglong City, the twelve deacons of Qinglong City have been neglected and excluded, compared to the twelve of them, Luo Wei believes in his cronies more, cronies want to gain power, and it is inevitable to suppress the twelve deacons, plus the twelve deacons were the biggest obstacle to Luo Wei's succession to the city lord, and they had a problem with Luo Wei from the beginning, how can they be reused in the future?
