On the Seven Towers

Xiao Chen was immersed in the world of meditation, trying to unlock the second magical light ball inherited by Gregorio. He felt that he was very close. He was only a little bit away from breaking through the surface of the light ball and going deep into it to analyze the magic. Structure, suddenly there was a roar in the sky, disrupting his thoughts. He got out of the meditation world with some depression, only to find that someone was knocking on the door.

When I opened the door, I found Chen Hansheng leaning at the door, smoking a thick and big cigarette. He said angrily: "Old Chen, where are you urging me to go? I almost knocked you out of your mind."

"Hey, I forgot about this. You are now a real magician. I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Chen Hansheng pretended to hold his fist, "You seem to be so diligent and scary lately that you even gave up sleeping in."

With the destiny of fighting against the gods and saving the world, how can I still sleep in every day? How big is your heart? Xiao Chen thought to himself. If he wasn't more diligent, he would be sorry for Master Icasa inviting him to the Tower of Spiritual Eyes several times to answer his questions and provide guidance on his cultivation. He put one hand on the door frame and said, "Time waits for us, Lao Chen. What do you want from me?"

Chen Hansheng took a puff of smoke and said, "We agreed last night that we would all go to the market together to see what we could buy, but you just forgot about it?"

"Ah! Look at me, I don't care about anything once I practice."

"Then let's go quickly. It's already more than half an hour late. Miss Luo is not far away from going crazy. She asked you several times and even drove me to be the villain." Chen Hansheng smiled mischievously.

"Let's go, hurry up." Xiao Chen thought of Luo Ling, and a pretty face appeared in front of his eyes that he couldn't figure out, and a strange fear crept into his heart. Does he like Luo Ling? It seems so? Does Luo Ling like him? He couldn't decide to pay attention...

"Still worried?" Lao Chen asked.

Xiao Chen waved his hand. At this time, he smelled the very special smell of the smoke exhaled by Chen Hansheng, so he changed the subject and said, "Where did you get this smoke? It looks like a cigar, but it doesn't smell like that."

Chen Hansheng took out another cigarette from his pocket and handed it to Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen took the cigarette and looked at it. This cigarette was dark green. The cigarette core and cigarette casing were rolled twice. The tobacco shreds were very long, but they were not any kind of tobacco leaves that Xiao Chen had seen. The cigarette casing felt good. It was very delicate, with striped patterns on it. He brought it to his nose and smelled it, then put it to his ear and shook it gently, wondering: "Is this a local product?"

"I did it. Is the craftsmanship good?" Chen Hansheng replied proudly.

Chen Hansheng took out a lighter from his pocket and wanted to light it for Xiao Chen, but Xiao Chen returned the cigarette to him, "I don't smoke, but my dad is a long-term smoker. I am also used to the smell of cigarettes. This The smoke tastes very mellow and a little sweet, which is good. ”

"The locals are discerning. The local people chew this thing called "sweet spicy grass" as betel nuts. I collected some at the market that day, simply baked them myself, and then wrapped them with the leaves of this white-striped tree. I found it to be no worse than a cigar. When I was not broke, I liked this one, but then I was reduced to selling sesame seeds and I haven't touched it for a long time." After Chen Hansheng took a good puff, he blew out a faint smoke ring.

"There are business opportunities in this thing." Xiao Chen said.

"We want to go together. I sent some to Baron Goya yesterday. He was very optimistic about it and wanted to buy it in large quantities. I plan to buy a batch of raw materials, transport them back to the school, improve the formula, and then sell them back to Suero. Today, Let’s go shopping around to see what we can purchase and process.”

"Old Chen, you can do it!"

When the two of them walked to the door of the hotel downstairs, Luo Ling, Silla and several other colleagues were already waiting at the door. Luo Ling seemed very calm, and even gave Xiao Chen a faint smile, which made Xiao Chen confused. He looked at Chen Hansheng, who shrugged, as if to say, Isn't it better to spare you?

————————————————————————

The market outside the city was still bustling. Chen Hansheng took the initiative and divided the people into several groups. Xiao Chen and Luo Ling were grouped together, while he himself took Silla to see the raw materials for tobacco.

When Xiao Chen learned that he was going to be alone with Luo Ling, he felt a little nervous for some reason. He hesitantly asked Chen Hansheng if he and Luo Ling, the two translators, needed to be assigned to each group, but Chen Hansheng politely refused. What translators are needed for shopping?

Xiao Chen carried a travel bag on one shoulder and looked around hesitantly. Unknowingly, everyone else had left in groups. Luo Ling just stared at him silently, as if waiting for him to start talking.

Xiao Chen scratched his head, suddenly feeling ridiculous.

Luo Ling was dressed up today. She got a local-style blue-purple headscarf from somewhere, tied her hair behind her ears, and hung a pair of lapis lazuli pendants on her ears. Although she was still wearing a robe, But some small places are decorated with belts, accessories and pins, showing the slim curves. Although it hasn't changed much from usual, the brilliance it emits is completely different, as if those glass bottles have been polished by their own magic.

Xiao Chen looked at Luo Ling, and Luo Ling also looked at him. That look made Xiao Chen's heart move, and he blurted out: "Miss Luo, are you going to go to the show today?"

"Don't you know that beauties go shopping not only to see people and view things, but also to be admired by others?" Luo Ling tilted her chin slightly, as did the corners of her mouth, as if she found Xiao Chen's unruly words funny.

"Be careful of attracting perverts. The way you look today is enough to trigger a murder." Xiao Chen couldn't help but laugh. He really liked Luo Ling's slightly proud look, and his mood would unknowingly brighten up. "It's a mixed bag here, but everyone is there. What if a horse thief comes to snatch Mrs. Yazhai?"

"Pervert?" Luo Ling clenched her fists, looking like who dares to offend me, "Coward, you are so cruel, I will protect you. Don't be stunned, come with me!"

Xiao Chen was stunned. Wasn't this script supposed to be about me swearing to be the messenger who protects flowers? Why is it upside down? Alas, Luo Ling is indeed Luo Ling.

Some things, some estrangements, come and go quickly. When Xiao Chen was teased by Luo Ling and walked with her in the market in Suero, time seemed to have returned to before. They supported each other and explored the secrets. days.

Xiao Chen touched the ring on his hand. He wanted to return it to Luo Ling. Anyway, he had obtained the inheritance, and the "spiritual whip" that came with the ring could also give Luo Ling some protection. He stopped in front of Luo Ling, took the ring off his hand, and said, "This ring, I want..."

Luo Ling held his hand, shook her head and said, "Today I just want to go out for a walk. Are you tired like this?"

"Why? What happened that day has passed. I just wanted to defend you..." Xiao Chen said anxiously.

Luo Ling put her fingers in front of her lips, making a silent gesture, and then walked forward by herself.

Xiao Chen went to chase her, but heard her faint voice: "Now that you know it's over, just let it go... I can protect myself."

Xiao Chen still wanted to stop her, but she avoided it easily. She swayed to a stall like a butterfly, looked back and said to Xiao Chen with a smile: "Hey, that backpacker, there is a nice shawl here, I want it." Come on, put it on for me!”

Xiao Chen put the ring back on his finger, hit his forehead with his fist, sighed, and followed.

The streets here are somewhat shabby and dirty, with crooked stalls, potholed streets, putrid smells, beggars and pickpockets everywhere, and some children running around in rags, all of which make the two modern society Urban people are somewhat uncomfortable with it, but they still feel a vigorous atmosphere of life. It seems that they have traveled through time and are traveling in a small town in an underdeveloped country. There are all kinds of strange things that they have seen and never seen before. They are sold in shops and stalls on both sides of the street.

Not only did Luo Ling travel around and buy a lot of accessories and fabrics, but Xiao Chen also bought several samples of raw materials that he thought were very valuable: spiritual silk from the Elf Forest, a very soft and tough silk thread, which is used to make high-end clothing. Good stuff; copper ore from eastern Montenegro is cheap and of high grade, and the industrial group will definitely be willing to purchase it in large quantities; a plant seed that tastes similar to tea, and locals use it to make incense, but Xiao Chen chews it Afterwards, based on my many years of tea drinking experience, I thought this would be a good tea. There is also a merchant who can supply good quality sulfur, which is the treasure that the technology team has been looking for for a long time.

After only shopping for a whole morning, Xiao Chen's travel bag was almost full.

Luo Ling, who was walking in front, stopped at the door of a shop again, and Xiao Chen had to follow her quickly. But when he arrived at the door, he heard the sound of metal being struck inside. Xiao Chen looked at the sign and realized that it was a blacksmith shop.

"Why are you interested in these?" Xiao Chen followed Luo Ling into the house and found that it was a quite large shop. There were many iron products in the room entering the door, including farm tools, kitchen utensils, and many weapons and armors. It seems that the shop owner's business scope is quite wide.

Luo Ling rolled her eyes at him, "Don't think I can only go shopping and buy clothes. This shop is the largest blacksmith shop in the world, and the items it produces must be very representative. It allows us to take a good look at the world. Metallurgical level.”

Xiao Chen picked up a long sword in the shop, flicked it lightly, then tapped a breastplate on the side, shook his head and said: "It's far from good, this long sword is not tough enough and hard enough. The breastplate is a thin shell wrapped in iron sheets, which can be penetrated with just one stab."

"Isn't that an opportunity for the school?"

"Yes, the guys in the industrial group want to make stamped steel armor, which must be much better than this. The only problem now is that they can't make steel yet." Xiao Chen curled his lips and put the long sword back on the shelf. Get ready to leave.

At this time, a deep female voice came to mind at the door: "Outlander, don't you look down on the Farrell family's craftsmanship?"

Xiao Chen looked back and found a female warrior in military uniform walking in from the door. The female warrior is very tall, in her mid-twenties, with short dark brown hair, and sharp dark gray eyes. Her nose is too high and her chin is too wide, but because of this, she makes people feel A feeling of calmness and strength. The scale armor she was wearing, although there were some scars and stains on it, was much stronger than the one on the shelf in terms of detail. There was a two-handed sword on her back. It looked murderous, and it must have been. Excellent product.
