Chapter 7: In the Ruined Village of Cronning (2)
Everyone's eyes were all focused on Shi Kuifa at once.
"Oh, that's bad." Shi Kuifa immediately noticed the warning shooting from the eyes of many people, so he thought to himself, "I should think of an explanation to get past it."
I heard Alexandra say again, "This gentleman is just the person I just saved, and I don't know him. Because of the chaos at the time, I immediately thought he was one of the people in the village."
As she spoke, the eyes of the beautiful swordsman began to look at Shi Kuifa carefully, "But now that I look closely, I haven't seen this gentleman in this village."
As soon as these words came out, all the villagers also echoed the interface, and many people began to talk to each other, looking at Shi Kuifa while discussing.
"Well, I don't know this gentleman."
"I don't know either."
"Me too."
"I've never seen this gentleman."
"It's clear from the outfit that this gentleman is not a local."
The crowd was gossiping for a while. And this last sentence also made Shi Kuifa look down, indeed, his clothes and pants were very different from those worn by the villagers of Cronning Village. They were all dressed like peasants in the Middle Ages in the West, and they were dressed quite decently because they were originally going to interview for jobs today, wearing black suits, shirts and ties, which were completely out of place with everyone at the scene.
However, he also found that Alexandra was dressed in a black tights, which was obviously her combat suit. At the same time, Shi Kuifa also noticed that Alexandria's facial features were also similar to those of his Chinese, unlike the other people's Western faces.
This gave Squiefa the intimate feeling that he was seeing his own people in a foreign land, though he knew it was just an illusion.
At this time, in the midst of what you said and I said, it was still the village chief Weber, who overpowered the volume of everyone at the scene, and said to Shi Kuifa: "Sir, hello, then I won't be polite, just ask you directly." Judging from the way you used your magic to kill only these thieves and not the others, I can tell that you have no intention of attacking this village, right?"
"Ah, of course." Shi Kuifa hurriedly said.
"You must be a magician." Webb added.
"Uh......" Shi Kuifa thought for a moment and said, "It should be ...... Sort of."
"You don't have to be humble." Webber said, "The high-grade lightning magic you used just now, even a layman like me can see that you must be a very powerful magician. Sir, when did you come to our village? Before the thieves attacked, none of our village, including me, had seen you!"
"Me?" Squire said, "That's because I just came here."
"Clams?" Webber and the villagers were puzzled and puzzled, while Alexandra narrowed his beautiful eyes.
Shi Kuifa also noticed that what he said sounded strange, but after all, he was already thirty-five years old, and he was not in danger, so he said, "I did just come to your village."
The crowd still didn't believe it, and many of them secretly thought, "This man probably doesn't want to tell his true purpose."
The village chief Webber pondered for a moment, and then said, "That...... Mr. Magician, may I ask you why you came to our village at this time?"
Shi Kuifa was asked by him, and he immediately thought in his heart: "Hmm, should I make it clear to everyone directly, showing that I have just crossed over from another world? Well, no, it doesn't seem appropriate, if someone says the same to me, I will definitely think that this person is a psychopath at the first time, then if I say the same to these people now, they will probably think like this, which will make my truth, it sounds like a lie, then it is better not to show it, it's better, right! That's it, don't tell them that I've just crossed over from another world! Well, how do I explain the purpose of my visit to this village......
Thinking of this, Shi Kuifa's gaze unconsciously glanced at Alexandra.
There was a flash of inspiration in my head.
"Vacation." He said to Weber, "I, like this lady Alexandria, have come for a vacation."
"Huh?" Everyone was stunned and didn't believe it, and Alexandria's face turned into a strange look of "what do you say".
"Really." Squire said, "I'm really here for a vacation."
"Our village of Cronning is not a famous resort." Weber said incredulously, his eyes back and forth between Alexandra and Squifa, "It's just a small village in the middle of nowhere, and there's nothing worth seeing......
The implication of his words was that he couldn't understand why a master like Alexandra and a magician like Skueva would come to Cronning Village for a vacation.
Alexandra was even more speechless. Although she didn't move on the surface, she was already muttering in her heart. Gain's instincts told her that Squiefa was lying, and that it was a clever lie - it sounded stupid on the surface, and everyone in the audience could see through it at a glance, but because he said that the purpose was the same as Alexandria's, it was "to come for a vacation", and at this moment, it would have a knock-on effect, and if the villagers were to deny what Skuifa had just said, it would be the same as denying what Alexandra had just said. However, they have already accepted Alexandria's "Coming to Cloning Village Vacation" in an "undenied" way, so if they want to deny Skuifa's "Coming to Cloning Village Vacation" in a "non-negation" way, they will not be able to find a point of force.
- This is a logical problem, it doesn't make sense that Alexandra can, but Shi Kuifa cannot.
Although Shi Kuifa's words sounded like lying, it was really difficult to deny it for a while.
Therefore, the words of the village chief Weber obviously questioned the "vacation theory of coming to Cronning Village" jointly held by Alexandra and Shi Kuifa.
When the beautiful swordsman's thoughts were about to turn, he heard Shi Kuifa speak again.
"Well, because it's not my ultimate goal here." I heard Squiefa say calmly, "Strictly speaking, I'm just passing by Cronning Village."
"Passing by?" Webb said suspiciously.
"Actually, I'm traveling around the world." "I want to travel around and see all over the world while I can in my lifetime," said Squee. That's why I just happened to be here, not for any particular purpose, to come to Cronning Village. I just didn't expect that as soon as I came to your village, I encountered the scene of war when the thieves attacked just now."
After all, Shi Kuifa is a thirty-five-year-old man, not a thin-skinned young man, and he knows that at this time, he can only follow the lies that have been told and continue to speak, even if such a scene will make these words sound unbelievable, but at least logically, it can be passed smoothly.
The villagers looked at Shi Kuifa steadily, and after a few seconds of silence, the village chief, Weber, said in a deep voice, "...... Well, then, sir, I'm sorry to get involved in our thieves."
Obviously, Weber meant not to go any further and ask about the real purpose of Squeefar's visit to the village of Cronning.
After all, the village of Cronin had just been attacked by the "Dolgon Thieves", and as far as the eye could see, many houses and fields were ruined or burned by fire, almost in ruins, and the ground was also littered with corpses, and the corpses of the villagers and thieves who had died in battle were scattered all over the place.
And from another point of view, with the high-grade thunder magic that Shi Kuifa used just now, if there was really any purpose, the villagers would not be able to stop him.
Therefore, Weber decided to give up the investigation, Guy had already proved that he was not an enemy when Squeefa killed the thieves just now, so there was no need to ask him about the real purpose of coming here.
Also, at this time, everyone is already tired.
Attacked by the "Dolgon Bandits", the survivors of these villages are now exhausted, and they must continue to cheer up, put down their weapons, go back to clean up their ruined homes, see if there are any survivors, and dispose of the corpses all over the ground.
Because of this, Weber, as the head of the village, judged that it would be unwise to make any more extraneous branches. At this time, the top priority is to lead the villagers to tidy up their homes after the war.
That's why he said that.
The other villagers, apparently quite a few, were of the same opinion as Weber, so none of them raised any objections or said anything more.
Everyone is tired.
Seeing that no one wanted to delve further, Shi Kuifa also knew each other, so he pretended to clasp his fists at everyone and said, "It's okay, it's okay. I am deeply saddened and saddened by the situation that has come to your homeland. But for now, you should hurry around and put out the fire and see if there are any survivors."
Everyone nodded, and then began to disperse and start moving.
Just as Webb was about to turn away, the fifty-three-year-old middle-aged hunter suddenly asked, "By the way, Mr. Magician, I haven't asked you what to call you?"
"My name is Squifa." Skueva replied.
