On the Seven Towers

"Master, I have completed the basic training. Please teach me how to punch people." Early in the morning, when it was still light, Garcia shouted to Ji Yijun outside his window.

"Running?" Ji Yijun asked with half-closed eyes, lying on the bed.

"I ran ten laps around the town."

"Jumping?"

"Well, like a frog, I jumped fifty times in the alley behind."

"Fighting... also?" He asked while yawning.

"Of course, this is the most exciting one. I did an extra 100 times after the 500 times of horse stance punching you prescribed." Garcia's voice was full of excitement, as if he had punched many enemies with one punch.

"You are so cruel, wait for me at the old place." This time Ji Yijun finally woke up 70% and sat up and ordered.

"Okay, okay! I bought you the best white bread and a small bucket of fresh milk from Aunt Lisa." Garcia's voice quickly softened, and this guy ran away while talking.

Ji Yijun really admired the martial arts talent and enthusiasm of the children here. Garcia was only sixteen years old, but he was as strong as a calf. Since Ji Yijun agreed to teach him kung fu, he got up early every day to practice, and he would only do more and never be lazy. When Ji Yijun himself practiced martial arts, he was so lazy that he could not compare with him.

However, teaching people to practice martial arts is much more interesting than opening a shop and being a bodyguard. While Li Jia was still sleeping, he simply washed up and went out.

The place where Ji Yijun and Garcia agreed was not far from their shop. It was just across two alleys. It was an open space near the river, and children often gathered to play. Before Ji Yijun arrived, he heard the sound of "Ha, ha" coming from there. Why does it seem like there is more than one person?

Ji Yijun turned the corner and found that there were actually four or five guys practicing boxing with Garcia. Garcia was in the front, facing these guys, and they followed Garcia's movements and punched, imitating him to make "ha, ha" sounds. Ji Yijun saw Garcia's extremely serious look and laughed secretly. Could it be that he had just accepted an apprentice and was about to become a master in the blink of an eye?

He did not interrupt them, but walked around the side and frowned. Wasn't this the Enrique group he had just met before? How come these little hooligans were mixed with Garcia again?

Enrique and his friends saw Ji Yijun and stopped their actions, staring at him a little nervously and nervously.

"Master, Master, Enrique and the others were defeated by you last time, and they also want to learn Kung Fu from you." Garcia ran over excitedly and said, "I said Master's Kung Fu is powerful, and these idiots will definitely not be able to learn even the simplest moves. They didn't believe it, and just tried to learn from me."

"Nosy!" Ji Yijun slapped Garcia's head with his hand, and then looked at the gang of hooligans in front of him, and said unhappily: "Last time, you took a knife and wanted to stab me? Why did I teach you?"

Enrique and his men ran over and knelt in front of Ji Yijun without hesitation. The leader Enrique said: "We apologize, Master, please forgive us. You are really powerful, and we all admire you, so we are willing to learn from you."

"You are the magician's guard, you must be powerful and generous. Please forgive us." Another gangster also flattered him.

Ji Yijun found that these little hooligans were flexible, so he asked, "But you are bad guys. What if you learn my skills and do bad things?"

"Enrique and his friends just fight and bully people, but they haven't done anything bad. The last time they robbed with a dagger, it was because the gold coins were too attractive. This year, the lord has been tight on money, and everyone is having a hard time, so they naturally thought of crooked ways. But later he told me that he didn't really want to hurt anyone." After all, Garcia knew them since childhood, so he said a few good words for Enrique, "Besides, they are wandering around because they have nothing to do. If the teacher disciplines them and gives them something to do, they won't cause trouble everywhere."

Ji Yijun had a hard time listening to Garcia's long speech, but at least he understood that Garcia was speaking for them. But Ji Yijun didn't believe in words like not wanting to hurt people. He had fought with them personally, and it was normal for them to kill people in anger.

But it can be seen that they are not the most evil people. People of this era have not received any education, let alone any laws. The so-called morality is based on innate conscience or the teachings of rural slang. It is indeed impossible to judge their behavior with modern people's concepts.

Ji Yijun held his chin and walked around the few people who were almost prostrating themselves, and then said: "If you want to learn kung fu, you have to give me a decent reason to impress me, right? For example, your father is sick and you need to make a living? Your sister was robbed and you want to take her back? You are an orphan since childhood and you want to take revenge?"

Enrique and others were puzzled. They looked at each other for a long time. Enrique said: "My father is a tailor and my mother takes care of my younger brothers and sisters at home. I just want to learn your skills and have a way out in the future. We can help you work, help you get information, and do things that you are unhappy and inconvenient to do."

"Yes, in the future, as long as you point your finger, everyone will do everything." Others echoed.

"Also, from now on, we will beat whoever you tell us to beat. We will all fight together and use the skills you taught us. We are not afraid of anyone," Enrique added.

Help with work? Looking for information? Just hit whoever you say you will hit? Ji Yijun narrowed his eyes, thought for a while and said, "Okay then. I will give you a test. If you pass the test, I will teach you."

————————————————————————

In the Rose and Crystal Hotel, where Xiao Chen and his party are staying temporarily, the bards Galdo and Latona are hiding in a small room, discussing something in a low voice.

"I still don't understand what level of mages those two people are." Laitona, who has rarely spoken, held a white crystal in his hand: "However, this magic stone tells me that they His mental power is quite strong, especially that Xiao Chen, he seems to be practicing some magic every night."

Galdo crossed his fingers and lay on a sofa thinking. He said: "We can't stay any longer. As a bard with no fixed abode, staying in such a luxurious hotel for one night is already too much. If you continue to live with them, you will definitely arouse suspicion.”

"What should we do? Do you want me to take action and give them a try?" Laitona took out a small staff from his bag, "I can sneak attack Xiao Chen's room at night... to see his reaction."

"Well, that's it! However, it must not be discovered. It would be bad if he breaks through. Paz, the spy of the Temple of War, saw them coming. It is definitely not something ordinary magicians can do. We need to understand them After investigating their origins, it seems that they are most likely magicians from outside the continent, which represents many possibilities." Galdo pointed to the sky outside the window, "You know, his power may not be the same. If we can reach that far, maybe we can become allies with these people. We must not cause trouble for you."

"Yes. Understood. Then I'll start." Latona held the wand in his hand and muttered something. Soon, a miserable green light emitted from the wand, and a magic circle appeared in the void, and then a hand emerged from the magic circle. It slowly floated out.

"Be quiet and don't attract the attention of the old guy from Icasa." Galdo looked at Latona casting a spell with a serious expression. This is a magic that summons ghosts. Since his identity cannot be revealed, let the undead accompany him upstairs. Xiao Chen, let’s have fun.

Gradually, the head and chest of the undead slowly emerged from the magic circle. This ghost was basically translucent and looked like a human woman, but the pale eyes, sharp fangs and nails several inches long could be seen. It looks very permeable. Galdo has seen Laitona cast spells many times, and the ghosts summoned each time are different. Today's one is the best, with a solid body and sharp claws. It is perfect for testing Xiao Chen's ability. .

However, just when the ghost's thigh floated out of the magic circle, Latona's expression suddenly changed and he whispered: "No, he is releasing his mental power to practice, and he seems to be preparing to release magic. Wisdom is supreme, this is What kind of spiritual power actually penetrated the room and fell in front of me. "

"Stop it now."

"No, my mental power is tied up by him. He, he won't let me go...ah, he wants to release magic...ah!!!"

Letona's voice stopped suddenly, and he suddenly let out a shrill scream together with the summoned ghost. Instantly, Galdo also felt a force rush into his mind. Fear, extreme fear. All the most terrifying things he had ever seen appeared in front of him in an even more terrifying manner, and he couldn't help but let out a huge scream...

After an unknown amount of time, Galdo woke up, dripping with sweat. He sat down on the ground, still trembling. But in front of him, the ghost had already collapsed. Letona fell to the ground and foamed at the mouth. Passed out.

He...he must have discovered us. This is a warning, such a terrifying magician will not allow people to peek and offend. Just when we were about to test him, he launched such a powerful attack. Could it be that Xiao Chen already knew our details? The more Galdo thought about it, the more frightened he became. He really didn't dare to use Xiao Chen's ideas anymore. He pushed open the window of the hotel, picked up Latona with one hand, and pushed hard, like a bolt of lightning, he rushed out of the building. house.

At this time, Xiao Chen was in the ecstasy of successfully casting his first magic. Although he didn't know why the magic released was attracted by an unknown force downstairs, and actually spread out downstairs on its own. But, after all, this is the first step to success.

Was someone calling just now? Just hope it doesn't cause any accidents, right? He thought a little guilty.

Xiao Chen had no idea that he had somehow managed to scare away the two spies who wanted to attack him, and also gave the sleeping people in the surrounding rooms nightmares all night long.
