On the Seven Towers

Scarface drove away the farmers who were about to trade with him. Dozens of his men surrounded Li Jia and his party with knives and sticks. Wang Jiyuan and several soldiers saw that these people were not friendly, so they quickly protected the cart and the food they had exchanged from all sides. However, they did not dare to shoot at will because the situation was unclear. They could only raise their guns and confront them.

Scarface pushed the crowd away and walked over slowly. His triangular eyes were gleaming fiercely. He looked at Li Jia and his friends one by one. That look made Teacher Bai and Zhang Hong sweat coldly.

When he saw Li Jia and Chen Hansheng, he recognized that these two guys had killed one of his brothers at the school gate. Scarface waved his machete and slashed a few times, then roared at them.

Like a hungry wolf with fangs bared, Li Jia retreated two steps in shock by the knife light, but was blocked by Chen Hansheng from behind. Chen Hansheng crossed his arms and looked at the other party coldly. Whether Scarface danced with his knife like a shaman or yelled so loudly that it hurt people's ears, Chen Hansheng was unmoved. Scarface kept yelling, and when he felt that the other party had no reaction, he stopped angrily. Chen Hansheng suddenly sneered: "Are you playing monkey tricks?" Li Jia couldn't help laughing.

At this time, Brass ran over with a bag of food. Seeing the aggressive Scarface, he hurried forward to ask. After a few words, the two began to argue loudly. But it was obvious that Scarface's throat was louder and more powerful, and Brass seemed to be unable to win over him.

"That scarface said we are devils and we can't make deals with devils. He also said that everything we brought was made by evil magic and would be cursed if used." Zhang Hong translated, "Brass said we are very powerful and there is no need to conflict with us. But scarface said his people can't die in vain, and he just saw us performing evil magic, all relying on that pole. If everyone works together, we will definitely... definitely be able to catch us. Captain Wang, what should we do? Should we rush out now?"

Old Chen interrupted, "We can't just rush in. Look, there are people all around, and more than a dozen archers are on the roof. If we rush in, the losses will be huge."

Wang Jiyuan said with a gloomy face, "It really doesn't work. Let's kill scarface first, and then grab a few hostages to use as shields."

At this time, the dispute over there was over, and Brass also put down the food, picked up the bow and arrow and stood behind scarface. Under his command, some people who originally carried food to trade put down the food, reluctantly picked up weapons, and joined the encirclement. Scarface turned around and yelled at Li Jia and the others fiercely.

"He... he asked us to hand over our weapons and surrender immediately." Zhang Hong said tremblingly, "What should we do? What should we do? If we don't hand them over, they will... kill us."

"Don't panic!" Wang Jiyuan raised his gun and aimed at Scarface's head.

When people are extremely nervous, they will have various reactions. Some people will not be able to concentrate, some will faint, some will go crazy, and some will have hallucinations. When both sides picked up their weapons and were about to fight, Li Jia felt that he seemed to have experienced all the above emotions. He felt the blood rushing to his head, and he was both dazed and weak, and wanted to kill. He closed his eyes and tried to calm himself down, but he heard someone calling his name in the distance, getting closer and closer, as if it was the original world calling him.

However, this is the most unlikely thing, so it must be an illusion brought to me by fear. Until many people around him exclaimed, he mustered up the courage and opened his eyes.

He saw Xiao Chen.

He saw Xiao Chen, with a beautiful woman and a strong man, walking into the encirclement in a swaggering manner under the respectful guidance of a middle-aged man. They were all dressed in gorgeous and mysterious robes, with silver patterns embroidered on the black robes. Under the sun, the patterns seemed to have fluorescent light flowing between them. Xiao Chen held a short sword at his waist with one hand and leaned the other hand behind his back, looking very imposing.

Is this true? How could he be here? How could he walk among these natives like a stroll? What adventure did he have that made him look like a nobleman, while we looked like a group of refugees? Is this a dream?

"Everyone, get out of the way and make way for the honorable magician." The bald middle-aged man leading the way said arrogantly. Magicians are the spokespersons of the most mysterious power in this world. They are the protagonists of those great legends. They may be noble or evil, but without exception, they are all extremely powerful. For ordinary people in these towns who have only heard of magicians in stories, a living magician is like a god descending to earth, which makes people awed and curious.

The onlookers all bowed their heads and retreated, and those who were holding swords, guns, bows and crossbows put down their weapons and made way. Xiao Chen and his team quickly passed through the crowd and came to Scarface and Li Jia and others.

"They said this person is a magician... It seems to make them awed." Zhang Hong was also confused, "Li Jia, how could he know you?"

"Of course he knows me, that's Xiao Chen! My roommate Xiao Chen!"

Xiao Chen nodded and greeted him and several others. However, the situation was about to explode, and he did not come over to greet, but walked straight to Scarface and asked him in a very serious tone: "Who are you? How dare you besiege my companions?"

"Who are you? Why are you here? Are you in the same group with these demons?" Scarface was obviously confused.

"Paz, you really don't know how to live or die. The old magician's house in the town opened its door today. Mr. Xiao walked out of it. You also know the legend in the town that the magicians will come back one day. Today is the day. This prediction is confirmed. Is there anything doubtful about this? Put down your sword and apologize to the Lord. "The middle-aged man is naturally Silla, he seems to be born to be a bitch.

Scarpas looked at Xiao Chen and others, and then at Li Jia and others, "These people are also devils! Look, they all have black hair and black eyes. Have any of you seen such people? Even those from the Empire No robber will look like this. You were deceived, and even a magician would not fall from the sky with a city. There will be no such scene in the story! Ciro, you fool, you were seduced by the devil. Don’t know yet.”

Silla blushed angrily: "Nonsense! You had previously encouraged everyone to find trouble with the count, but you were ambushed by the count, causing many people to be killed by the guards. If it weren't for the magician's castle Falling from the sky, we must all be in the count's prison now! The magician who saved us saw that you were living in poverty, and sent his servants to exchange for your food with unparalleled magic items. Kindness, what a generous act, you, a guy who repays kindness with hatred, actually instigated everyone to fight against the Master Magician. Do you want to kill everyone? "

"That guy, killed my people!" Paz pointed at Li Jia and shouted.

"Are you talking about him?" Xiao Chen patted Li Jia on the shoulder, "This is my cousin. A noble and peaceful person like my cousin will never hurt anyone without reason."

"I have heard about this, sir. Your cousin killed an ungrateful bastard. He was killed because he offended the magician. His death was in vain." Silla emphasized loudly, "Even if he is the king He would say the same thing here."

The nobility of a magician even exceeds that of aristocrats and exceeds the law, and Paz knew it well. He looked at his men with fear on their faces and hatred in his heart, "If you make a deal with the devil, you will eventually sell your souls."

"Everyone knows that the devil is ugly and full of strange things. In which legend can the devil look like a human?" Silla turned to everyone and asked loudly: "What do you think?"

People around were talking a lot. Those legendary devils either had huge horns or tails. Their bodies were taller than buildings and their fists were bigger than calves. When everyone thinks about it carefully, they are too far removed from these master magicians and their followers. Others thought of the chaotic tax riot that caused today, and started making noises one after another.

Paz saw that many people began to look at him with suspicion, and argued anxiously: "Even if he is not a devil, he may be a liar, or he may be a spy of the empire!"

At this time Luo Ling stepped in, "You just said that we look different from the people of the Empire. How could we be spies of the Empire? As for whether we are magicians, I can naturally prove it to you. I hope you will not regret it."

Xiao Chen cooperated and pulled out the dagger from his waist and pointed it into the air. He focused all his energy on it. In an instant, the dagger burst into intense flames, which were as high as two people and shot straight into the sky. The heat wave from the flames was overwhelming, and several people standing close felt like they were in a fire for a moment.

The villagers dropped their weapons in horror, and many people prostrated themselves on the ground. This scene was really shocking to the country people who had not seen much. Seeing such magic with their own eyes is like a modern person seeing a nuclear explosion with their own eyes. It is the talk of a lifetime for them. Even more shocked than them were Li Jia, Chen Hansheng and Wang Jiyuan. This goes against what they have known for so many years, what they understand as so-called science, and subverts their sense of identity with the entire world. If their previous understanding of this different world was still based on the changes of the times, then they really felt that their hometown was completely far away from them.

The fire gradually extinguished. Although the heat was moving upward, everyone around felt that they were about to be dried out. Xiao Chen wanted to scare the opponent with the strongest flame he could emit. Now he felt extremely exhausted and had a splitting headache. He leaned his sword on the ground and looked around. Scarpas had already disappeared without a trace, and the people around him were kneeling on the ground, while the friends from the earth were still in a daze. Xiao Chen struggled to smile at them, "Welcome to the new world alive."
