Chapter 107: The Fortune Teller
Zhao Xu raised his hand and pressed the excited maple leaf, asking the other party to let go of the hand holding the thief's collar first.
With the combat power of the three of them, it is completely enough to just wave with the group of people in front of them.
It's just that this is not a wilderness, and the nearby guards can quickly arrive if there is any movement, and then they will be reasonable and unreasonable.
If the group of thieves in front of him had not been dealt with and dared to attack this bazaar near the city gate, then he could have fed the dogs with his experience as a sheriff in his previous life.
"You mean this wallet is yours?" Zhao Xu smiled widely, looking at the eighteen or nineteen-year-old thief who had learned to fight fiercely.
"Yes, you foreigner pigs should go back to your nest."
Chuck, the thief who mistakenly thought that Zhao Xu had confessed, suddenly became bold and said viciously in Zhao Xu's ear.
Zhao Xu was dressed as a scholar and looked like a low-level person like them.
It's just that the important people in the whole Crescent Town, they have experienced the training from day one.
These outsiders who come and go in a hurry have always been the best targets.
"Young man, there are some things that are not yours, and they will burn when you hold them." Zhao Xu seems to have returned to his former role in his previous life.
And the thief Chuck suddenly had the illusion of facing the sheriff of the town, but he immediately came to his senses, and said even more angrily: "Don't think that if you pretend to be a big person, we will be afraid of you, our Morin Brotherhood has never been a fool of anyone." β
After speaking, he turned around and said, "Brothers, someone has broken my clothes, what do you say?" β
As he spoke, Chuck shook his collar, indicating that he had been scratched by the maple leaf.
"Compensation, I think this gentleman's clothes are good, Chuck, you must look like a human in it, haha." Another of Chuck's companions stepped forward.
And Zhao Xu looked into the distance, noticed that the target he wanted was already approaching, and secretly thought that it was just right, if he really started, his forcing was too low.
"You loosen this wallet first, I can prove that it is ours, if I can't prove it, I can compensate you for this dress." Zhao Xu said with a smug smile.
Chuck was secretly happy when he heard this, so that the credit for this outfit in front of him must be his own, and he could already imagine how imposing he was in this scholar's outfit.
Chuck just spread his hand.
They had gone through a full set of training before, and no matter what Zhao Xu said next, they would fall into the trap of his next words.
Chuck chuckled, this stupid man was so naΓ―ve, thinking that the previous owner had not confronted them with the contents of the contents, and had not tried to prove it?
The Church of the God of Justice has not yet reached Crescent Town!
The mixing of three religions and nine streams is the reason why this place is really prosperous.
"I don't know if you've ever heard an Arthur proverb - everything chooses its own master."
Zhao Xu immediately recited a simple mantra - "Mage's Hand"!
With a wave of his hand, the wallet that was lying quietly in the palm of the thief Chuck rose directly into the air and flew towards him.
"You're playing tricks." Seeing that the wallet was in Zhao Xu's hand, Chuck was angry on the surface, but he began to sneer in his heart, now he not only got the wallet and clothes, but also beat the person in front of him again.
Zhao Xu is still calm.
Maple Leaf and Rainbow immediately pressed their hands on their weapons, not caring if they could kill this town if they really fought.
Chuck immediately raised his fist and was about to smash it forward, but a thin hook-like hand pressed heavily on his shoulder, forcing his force to unload.
This familiar feeling made Chuck's originally burning heart cold on the spot.
He looked back in surprise, and it was Tie Liu, the second leader of their brotherhood, who was in charge of teaching them the craft.
Just before Chuck could speak, Tie Liu's hand went directly down his arm, and finally grabbed Chuck's right finger and said, "This honorable gentleman, I am sorry that my people were disrespectful to you just now, and I will punish him now." β
"I don't have to use my fingers, I'm not interested in disicing people." Zhao Xu, who had seen enough of this kind of trick, said impatiently.
"Okay." Tie Liu still said sincerely.
A whip leg flicked over.
Chuck fell to his knees, almost spitting out bile.
The subordinates behind Tie Liu all jumped in their hearts.
Chuck, on the other hand, gritted his teeth and sweated coldly on his forehead, but he didn't dare to make a sound.
"I don't know, sir, are you satisfied?" Tie Liu, the leader of the group of thieves, continued to bow.
"So be it." Knowing that the result would be like this, Zhao Xu was still disgusted in his heart.
"Let's go." After Zhao Xu threw his wallet to Maple Leaf, he didn't have to look back.
Maple Leaf and Rainbow followed Zhao Xu through several crowds, until the group of people behind them had disappeared into the corner of the street, and Maple Leaf asked, "Mr. Midsummer, what the hell is going on?" Why was the man punished? β
"It's very simple, because I'm a fake tiger. I just came out of the Mage Guild and used a zero-level spell, 'Mage's Hand'. The boss of the group of thieves, that is, the old man, naturally thought that I was a mage associated with the association, and naturally did not dare to provoke me. Zhao Xu explained lightly.
At this time, Maple Leaf also understood, he lowered his head and reviewed: "It's me who is impulsive, we have a task on our bodies, and that wallet doesn't have much money, and if I lose it, I will lose it, and I almost missed a big thing." But the old man is really ruthless, if he really pinches off one of his fingers, he will have to rest for half a month. β
Zhao Xu smiled and didn't say much.
If the old man didn't punish him on the spot, and then got his forgiveness, it wouldn't be so simple.
Go back and have that kid suffer, who let him blind and find the wrong target.
And it's not for nothing that the mage's zero-level spells are called tricks, it's just that the effect is too similar to those village magicians' tricks.
So the thief's first reaction when he saw his spell was not fear, but anger, thinking that he was deceiving people with a trick.
It's just that Zhao Xu knows very well that when he enters the association and leaves the association, the old man is standing near the door, observing the situation of the market by taking advantage of the openness and terrain of the association.
And when he went over to stop the conflict, the old man also followed and watched from afar.
So after he successfully released the spell, the old man should know that he was a real mage, even if he was stupid.
Isn't it spat on the Grim Reaper's statue to provoke a mage near the Guild?
If there was no old man, then what he would have to cast was a first-level spell, and he would be able to let the group of thieves know that they had messed with someone they shouldn't have messed with.
And Zhao Xu must also cast a spell, only in this way can he scare off the Morin Brotherhood, so that they dare not follow their whereabouts.
Otherwise, you will not only lose your wallet, but you will also have to do things with tasks, these underground forces are much more sensitive to fishy smells than ordinary people.
And when Zhao Xu thought so, they also followed this Luo Ya's instructions, and deliberately went around the entire Crescent Town for a while, and after making sure that no one was following them, they finally walked into a deep and dark divination shop that looked like there would be no customers at all.
Pulling open the curtain, which was already a little gray at the door, she didn't know how long it had not been washed, and Rainbow looked at the decoration in the house with a disgusted expression.
An ordinary crystal ball lies on the soft flannel cloth, and there are many divination cards hanging in the corner.
The incense burner in the corner was burning wormwood.
"What about people?" Maple Leaf said curiously.
Yesterday it was clear that the receiver would be waiting for them here today.
"Anyone?" Rainbow couldn't help but ask out loud.
It's just that at this time, the air was full of the stuffiness before the storm, and there was no other abnormal sound.
Rainbow, which is a wanderer, looks at it and tries to go into the inner room of the store to see if there are any traces.
It was only a few steps before he stood still, and said in a slightly trembling voice: "Brother Feng, Mr. Midsummer, you come over quickly." β
Zhao Xu immediately rushed over.
The whole inner room was in a mess, and it was turned over and over.
But what is even more stinging is -
A deceased, dressed in the garb of a soothsayer and identical to the physical characteristics of their counterpart, lay on a stool with a long sword piercing through his heart.
Zhao Xu suddenly had a clear heart.
He already understood that the task was over.
His own adventure is over.
