Chapter 3: The Teachings of the Magician (I)

The soldiers did not dare to leave, and trembled to accompany them.

The city guard of Ceylon City did not have many people, and the real army was all under the control of the city lord's mansion, and the city lord's personal guard was formed. There was a commotion on the part of the City Guard, and someone had already gone to inform the guards of the City Lord's Mansion.

After a while, the streets outside were already thundering, rushing towards the City Health Department. More than a hundred swordsmen surrounded the City Guard, and ten people jumped off their horses and walked into the gate of the City Guard. The gate has been blown up by Jason's fireball,

The swordsman led by this squad wore iron armor, drew his matching sword, and approached the main hall. The swordsmen who followed behind him also drew their weapons.

When the iron-clad swordsman saw the situation in the hall, he was furious, and pointed at Jason and said, "Who are you, you dare to rob the prison! ”

"Bastard. Jason scolded, pointed his finger, and a flash of blue light flashed, and a burst of acid shot out, hitting the swordsman's face. There was a stabbing sound, white smoke was rising, and the acid instantly corroded the swordsman's skin. The swordsman screamed and rolled to the ground.

After Jason finished doing this, he said gently to Salin beside him, "Even if you are an enemy, you should not insult a magician. Even the emperor can't make the magician bow his head. Such rude things, there is no need to be polite to him. ”

"Understood, teacher. Salin replied in a low voice, and everyone in the hall trembled.

"Pull him out, it's noisy. Jason said to the soldier opposite. The intruders were pardoned and quickly dragged the wounded soldiers away.

"I don't have much time, who took my student and brought it to me in half an hour. Jason casually took out a magic hourglass, placed it on the table next to him, and turned it over.

At this moment, two more swordsmen in armor walked in, and the armor of these two men was obviously much higher, and they looked like officers. The two swordsmen were close in stature, tall and straight, one red-haired and the other blonde. The blonde swordsman looked up and saw Jason, who was still maintaining his illumination technique, and his heart shuddered.

He was not an ordinary soldier without knowledge, Jason's gray magic robe had two magic marks on it, which indicated that he was a fifth-level magician. Which idiot provoked such a big guy?

The magician's robe comes in three colors, white from level 1 to level 3, gray from level 4 to level 6, and black from level 7 to level 9. The magic mark on the magic robe represents the level of this magician, and the gray-robed mage is already considered a great magician, and even the city lord can't afford to provoke such a person.

The red-haired swordsman silently saluted Jason, and then said to the soldiers around him: "You guys, go and arrest all the people related to this matter immediately, and if there is one less, I will replace you." ”

The soldiers glanced at Jason with their eyes, and Jason was expressionless, not looking against it, and the soldiers dispersed in an uproar.

The red-haired swordsman cautiously said to Jason, "Master Magician, what else do you need me to do?"

"Hmm......" Jason muttered for a moment and said, "Don't let your city lord come, I don't want to see him." ”

The red-haired swordsman was stunned for a moment, bowed his head and said, "Yes, Master Magician, this young master is injured, I'll go and invite a magician, what do you think." ”

"No, he can bear this pain. Jason rejected the red-haired swordsman's kindness. He was not in a hurry to treat Salin, anyway, it was an ordinary injury, so he could stay for a while so that Salin could remember today's events. Saleen must have done something to get caught. Whether it's right or wrong, there is a lesson to avoid similar things in the future.

The red-haired swordsman whispered a few words to the blonde swordsman, and the blonde swordsman bowed his head and walked out of the hall. The red-haired swordsman was on the side, and Saleen thought he was going to be finished, but he didn't expect the situation to change immediately as soon as the teacher came. Listening to the teacher's tone, even the city lord doesn't like to deal with it.

Only then did Salin understand the meaning of a magician, and although the status of a magician was also written in the book, he never saw it with his own eyes, so it was always hard to believe. He also knew the red-haired swordsman, he was a person from the City Lord's Mansion, and he was not a bad person, and during the Midyear Festival last year, he went to receive the flour issued by the City Lord, and this swordsman also asked people to give him an extra small bag.

It didn't take half an hour for the four soldiers who had captured Salin, the merchant and the servant, to be captured.

The six of them didn't know what was going on, and when the merchant saw Salen standing next to Jason, and knew that something was wrong, he was the first to fall to his knees, and his servant also knelt down.

"Who arrested my student?" asked Jason coldly.

The four soldiers glanced at each other, then at the red-haired swordsman standing to the side. The red-haired swordsman looked up as if he hadn't seen them. The four soldiers had no choice but to stubbornly reply: "We arrested him, and we received a report that he ...... Stealing the gold coins of Lord Zhanfu. ”

The soldier pointed his finger at the merchant with an innocent expression.

"Zhanbu, is that you, why did you falsely accuse my student?" Jason asked, staring at the businessman, word for word.

"My lord, this is a misunderstanding, I recognized the wrong person......"

"You lie, I'll give you another chance. Jason interrupted him.

"My lord, it's really like this, I don't have a grudge against him, how can I frame him, I ......"

Before the merchant could continue, Jason impatiently unleashed a spell, and a white light flashed, and an ice pick pierced through the merchant's skull, burrowing a hole-sized hole in blood.

"Don't be such an idiot anymore, magicians can detect lies, come and tell me, why did you frame my student?" Jason asked the servant after killing casually. He didn't have to convict the other party, he just wanted to know if Saleen had caused something.

The servant had already peed his pants in fright, and lay on the ground and cried: "My lord, it's not my idea, the lord wants to buy the house of Young Master Metatrin, and I don't want to go through the formalities of the city hall, Young Master Metatrin is always immortal, and the master thought of this idea, it's really none of my business......"

"I know it's none of your business. With that, Jason casually released a wind blade. The pale cyan wind blade instantly cut off the servant's head. Blood gushed out, and the head with snot and tears rolled aside.

After Jason did this, he said to Salin beside him: "Salin, it's really not your fault, come back with me." The four of you are so fond of arresting people, I'm very unhappy, so let's cut off all your hands, so as not to catch the wrong ones again in the future and lose your head. ”

"My lord, your student is fine, or ......" the red-haired swordsman opened his mouth to intercede.

Jason stood up, not looking at the red-haired swordsman, and pulled Saleen out of the hall. His voice rang out in the hall: "My students spared them if they were safe, and if they really died, I would let all of you be buried with them." Tomorrow, I will count the property of that exhibition and send it out of the city, which can be regarded as an apology for my students. One less gold coin, and I'll kill someone. ”

The red-haired swordsman shuddered, there are no magicians in Ceylon City, if this fifth-level magician really makes trouble, even slaughtering the city is possible. He silently drew his sword and walked towards the four soldiers......

Salin was led by Jason all the way out of Ceylon City. The soldiers defending the city had already received the news, and opened the city gate in a panic to send the two plague gods away.

Back at the ancestral house, Jason performed Ganlin treatment for Salin. While treating, Jason asks about what happened during the day. Salin spoke in detail, and Jason roughly understood what was going on. He didn't blame Saleen, a little child, who knew how to be sinister. This lesson must have made Salin understand that in this world, strength is the last word.

After the treatment, Salin went back to his room to rest, thinking about everything that had happened today. If there is no teacher, no matter how much gold you have, you will only kill your own accomplices.

It must be strong, it must be!

He lay on the bed with his eyes open, unable to sleep. The room was a little dark, like it was still in a dungeon. The feeling of palpitations and despair did not go away, and the fear of death eroded the young mind. Saleen fumbled out of bed, lit the candle on the table, closed his eyes, and slowly fell asleep.

Early the next morning, the red-haired swordsman arrived with gold coins. It seems that he was not idle last night, and taking inventory of property is not a light job. Jason didn't say much to him, just asked Saleen to receive him, and if there was anything, he would talk to Saleen.

The red-haired swordsman sat in the front hall uneasily, and Saleen walked down from the upper floor, and the red-haired swordsman quickly stood up and greeted Saleen: "Young Master Metatrin, you are up." ”

Salin was still a little uncomfortable with the other party's enthusiasm, in the past, walking on the street, these swordsmen of the City Lord's Mansion did not exist at all. The red-haired swordsman may be a good man, but if he didn't have a teacher, he would just help him get an extra bag of flour at the festival. I'm afraid he'd forgotten about it a long time ago, right?

"Young Master Metatrin......" Seeing that Salin was a little distracted, the red-haired swordsman called out tentatively.

"Well, what's the matter?"

The red-haired swordsman replied with some embarrassment: "The property of Zhanbu has been counted, a total of two thousand two hundred gold coins, as well as two properties, some livestock, and about 400 gold coins. The house is not easy to sell, so I can only owe it for the time being, and when I sell it, I will send the gold coins over. This is an Imperial Bank deposit note for two thousand gold coins, and this is 200 gold coins in cash. ”

The red-haired swordsman placed four money bags on the table, each one full.

Salin's eyelids jumped, but after yesterday's toss, he didn't pounce on it to count the gold coins, but said calmly: "Those two houses, you make up 300 gold coins, it's yours." If it's convenient, send the money in the afternoon, and by the way, help me send half a year's worth of rice, flour, spices and dried meat, is it okay?"

"No problem!" The red-haired swordsman was overjoyed, it was still a little difficult to sell these two houses for four hundred gold coins, and he was afraid of Jason's words - one less gold coin, I would kill someone. Now that Sallinken sold it to him at a discount, he changed hands to the income of dozens of gold coins, and he didn't have to bother to fill the deficit himself.

Sending the red-haired swordsman away, Salin arrives at Jason's magic lab with four money bags and two Imperial Bank notes.

"Teacher, yours. ”

"Let it go to you, if your magic improves, it will take a lot of money. Ask me again when you run out. "Jason didn't have any money from Salin, and he didn't care about the gold. Last night he was just a little annoyed, a small businessman, who dared to offend the dignity of a magician, and lied to himself continuously. That's why he casually copied Zhanbu's house to compensate himself and Salin.
