On the Seven Towers

Chapter 99 A Transaction

Ji Yijun suddenly had the illusion of being caught as a thief. His heart was beating nervously, his face turned red, and beads of sweat instantly covered his forehead.

He originally wanted to make a surprise attack when the man and woman were alone and subdue one of them in one fell swoop, so that he could have the initiative in negotiations. But now, this man is too keen...

Ji Yijun suppressed the urge to escape through the window, took a deep breath, stabilized his trembling hands, opened the curtains with a knife, and slowly walked out.

I saw the man and woman who were speaking standing in the room looking at him. It has to be said that these two people are both human-looking, wearing light armor and capes, coupled with their tall and straight postures and handsome facial features, they can really be described as heroic. However, when it came to Ji Yijun's appearance, the two behaved very differently. The man looked confident, but the girl was obviously taken aback.

Ji Yijun's consistent creed is to make peace with things as they come. Now that his face was exposed, he no longer thought about anything. He strode forward, dragged a chair, sat on it, put the knife across his knees, glanced up at the two of them and said: " It seems that you are waiting for me. Then I am here. If you have anything to say, just say it."

When the blond girl saw Ji Yijun, she was a little surprised at first, then showed a bit of curiosity, her eyes kept wandering on Ji Yijun's face and body, but did not make eye contact with him, and finally retreated behind the man. When the man saw Ji Yijun sitting there carefree, he raised his eyebrows and sat opposite Ji Yijun.

He stared at Ji Yijun for a while and then said: "Young man who came out from behind the curtain, this is the second time we have met. Do you know that if my sister hadn't asked me to let you go that day, I would have needed someone to deliver the message? Are you dead?"

Is this a show of force? Ji Yijun frowned. He fainted in the end during the competition and didn't know what happened afterwards, but the feeling of being threatened was very bad. He asked in a cold voice: "Do you have a problem with me? "

The man flipped his hand, and fighting spirit quickly condensed into an air blade emitting blue light between his fingers. "At that time, you fell to the ground, and the fighting spirit was also aroused in my hand..." He smiled, but his expression was a little cold. .

"But I have to sit here completely." Ji Yijun hated this condescending tone and didn't even give him a chance to finish his words.

The man suddenly waved his hand, and fighting spirit flew out instantly, flying straight towards Ji Yijun's head.

Ji Yijun felt the hair on his back rising, and he immediately wanted to block it with a knife, but his intuition told him that this person should not be the killer here, and the target of this aura seemed to be a few inches off.

We can't let him look down upon us! His body trembled slightly, and he suppressed his violent impulse, but his eyes were fixed on the light that was flying towards him.

With a splash to the ground, the fighting energy turned into a stream of light and brushed past the ends of Ji Yijun's hair, and plunged into the wall of the room. Ji Yijun's face was hurt by the rapid airflow. He could tell just from the sound that a small piece of the stone wall was broken. If he moved half an inch further to the left, half of his head would be left.

"That sucks. It seems you missed the target last time." Ji Yijun said with narrowed eyes, holding the knife in his hand tighter.

Ji Yijun neither blocked nor dodged, which surprised the man. He didn't make any more moves and just asked: "You really have some courage. Are you so sure that I won't kill you?"

"If you're afraid of death, you won't come here! You can call the guards to come in and chop me down. However, no matter what I say, you will leave something behind." As he spoke, Ji Yijun picked up the knife, and the anger in his heart inspired the power of fighting spirit. , with a flash of the knife, a wooden coffee table in front of him was cut in two.

The man opposite him remained calm in the face of the sword light, crossed his legs and leaned on the back of the chair, "It seems that you have made great progress, and your temper has also improved. However, I like people with a bit of temper, and Xiongying would rather Fighting with vultures, you won't hear the crows. For the sake of your sword, that day is over, and now you are qualified to talk to me about serious matters. "

Ji Yijun casually thrust the knife into the floor. He somewhat regained the feeling of fighting spirit surging in his body that day when he went crazy in the hospital. This gave him the confidence that even the powerful man in front of him could no longer put any pressure on him. He looked up at the man and said, "You want to talk about business? Well, let's first explain the letter you stuffed on me. You warned us about the horse thieves, but you sent troops to surround our place with the horse thieves. "Tell me, who are you and what do you want to do?"

"Okay. Let me introduce myself first. I am Adan, and this is my sister Ola. Our surnames and identities have not yet been told to you. But you must also see that we are different from those dirty and greedy people. The horse thief is completely different. My letter is just a proof of sincerity that I want to make a deal with the magicians in the castle." The man named Adan said.

"Trade? What trade? Let me explain in advance. Although I like to fight and kill, I am not stupid. Don't try to take advantage of us with any crooked ideas. No matter how noble you say, it can't change the fact. Yours People and horse thieves also blocked the outside of our school... castle. "

"That's just a gesture to win the trust of the horse thieves. As long as you know our true identity, you will understand that we will never really stand with the horse thieves." Adan said seriously, "Those warriors will turn into The sword that penetrated the body of the horse thief."

"Are you just using horse thieves? Are you ready to stab them in the back at any time? This cooperation is really sincere." Ji Yijun doesn't like this kind of thing. Traitors will get used to betrayal. These people are betraying horse thieves now, but they may not betray outsiders like them then.

However, the other party seemed to have guessed what he was thinking. He waved his hand and said, "Please don't compare the respected magician with the horse thief that everyone shouts to beat. The horse thief is not so much our collaborator as it is us." goal. But I really hope to get help from the magician."

"Tell me what you want."

"Our request is simple. We need you to send at least one powerful magician and one experienced alchemist to help us explore an ancient ruins and obtain the inheritance inside." Adan said slowly.

"Hey, isn't this what tomb robbers do?"

"Boy, be careful what you say. This relic was originally left by our family's ancestors, but the family has interrupted the inheritance of magicians and cannot open this relic, so we have to go outside to find help." Adan slowly Said, "In return, my warriors will fight with you from both inside and outside to eliminate these horse thieves."

Hearing this, Ji Yijun stood up from his chair and said, "Then what are you waiting for? I promise you! Let your people attack the horse thieves immediately. In this way, we can reduce a lot of losses."

Adan shook his head and said: "You seem to be just a warrior who protects the magician. Although you may be a good warrior, are the promises you made valid?"

Ji Yijun hesitated. The so-called "magician" in the school was Xiao Chen. As for the alchemist, there was Morey who could support the scene. He had no idea whether he could accomplish what A Dan said. However, for the sake of the teachers and classmates who might die in the battle, he decided to convince the man in front of him first no matter what. So, he said loudly: "Of course it works! The commander we are fighting now is my father. He is much more powerful than me. He is on an equal footing with the magicians in the castle. I am here to represent the adults." Will, be solely responsible for negotiating with you.”

Adan stared at Ji Yijun for a while, then exchanged a look with Aola who was standing next to him, and finally said: "Okay. There is no better way to prove this now. Then I will believe you once, remember, don't waste it My trust, otherwise, our power will make you regret it.”

"If there's any problem, I'll take care of it. Just send troops." Ji Yijun said, patting his chest.

Adan closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then opened his eyes and said, "Okay, that's it."

Ji Yijun saw that after the other party said this, there was no follow-up. Instead, he clapped his hands and asked the attendant to bring in a few glasses of wine and snacks. He couldn't help but urge: "You..., now is not the time to drink, is it? Shouldn't you be giving orders?" Start the attack? If you come here a little later, won't we lose a lot of people there?"

"Drink this glass of wine first and come up with me for a walk." Adan smiled slightly and pointed upstairs.

Under the leadership of A Dan, Ji Yijun followed him up to a bell tower of the house. The bell tower was about four stories high. He could clearly see the scene of horse thieves besieging the school in the distance.

Ji Yijun took out a telescope he carried with him and saw that under the weak light of the torch, there were many figures shaking outside the school. It was the horse thieves charging towards the school wall on horseback. The night became their best Their reliance allowed them to avoid rifle and crossbow fire at the school. From here, they look no bigger than ants, like a nest of hungry ants swarming toward a piece of bread that has fallen on the ground.

The horse thieves used a very extravagant method of siege. They lay on their horses, using the horses as cover, and rushed to the cliff on the high ground of the school. Then they dismounted and began to climb the cliff where the school was located. Behind these charging teams, a large number of The Qingqiu was shooting arrows into the school.

The cliff the horse thieves climbed was a blind spot for shooting, so most of the horse thieves were able to climb onto the platform where the school was located. However, as soon as they emerged, they were attacked by the guards behind the wall. Under the bullets and crossbows, the people were killed. It fell down like dumplings. It was as if a pair of big hands were constantly sweeping over the edge of the highland, sweeping away all the crawlers that wanted to get their hands on this piece of bread.

However, there were still few rifles and crossbows, and they lacked accuracy in the dark night. Soon, horse thieves rushed to the wall. Some threw throwing axes into the wall, and some poked short spears into the shooting holes in the wall. , and some put jars filled with kerosene inside and outside the wall, and the fire started, and the most brutal fighting had begun.

The four to five kilometers of wilderness cannot stop the spread of gunshots and human voices, but when heard from here, the sounds become a little alienated and weird, and the noisy shouts of death become faint background music, with lingering gunshots. Then it became the sound of a drum set... Everything was a little unreal, like watching a play. However, Ji Yijun was not in the mood to watch a show. He knew that his companions were bleeding every minute and every second.

He looked at Adan with some anger and confusion in his eyes, but the other person's expression was very calm, "I don't like this either, but this is war."
