The sun had set, and it was getting dark. In the woods of Cloud Star City, Luo La waited anxiously, Ke Zhenxi had been away for an hour.

"It can't really be that you ran away with the money, right?" Luo La regretted letting Ke Zhenxi go to exchange money, if he didn't come back, she would really lose her wife and lose her soldiers. But now, she has no choice but to wait here.

When the footsteps came, she was overjoyed, and hurriedly turned around and complained, "Why did you come back?"

As soon as she finished speaking, her expression of anticipation suddenly turned to horror, and she took a step back vigilantly.

It was not Ke Zhenxi, but two strange men. The two men had frivolous expressions, and they walked neither like rich and noble children trained in good manners, nor like honest ordinary people.

"Yo, is the little beauty saying that we are late?" The tall, thin, small-eyed man in one of them looked at Lora obscenely. This Cloud Star City is also a big city, and he has seen a lot of beautiful women, but in front of this strangely dressed girl in white, it is not worth mentioning at all.

"The typical idle and unemployed vagrant. Lora defined the identities of these two people in her mind.

"Look at your clothes, you're from out of town, right? Come, play with us. Another short, stocky man answered, looking at Lola with a squint, his eyes about to pop out.

"Don't come. Lora flashed the fruit knife in her hand, and the two men made her feel sick. She was shocked and angry in her heart, and she couldn't help it, and it seemed that she couldn't escape this catastrophe. It's a remote place, and now that it's getting dark, it's very unlikely that someone from the righteous will come to her rescue.

"What? still want to have some fun?" The tall, thin, small-eyed man did not stop, approaching step by step.

"One step further and I'll kill myself. Lora pointed the fruit knife against her neck and said loudly.

"It's quite tough, such a girl, I like it the most, master. The stocky man walked briskly with drooling.

"Ke Zhenxi, you bastard!" Lora grumbled inwardly, regretting that she had pinned her hopes on such an outlaw. She picked up the fruit knife and prepared to pierce her own throat.

"Woohoo woo ......"

At this moment, a terrible howl came, which frightened the two hooligans into trembling.

"He's coming!" Lora was surprised and delighted, although the howl was very ugly, but she could hear who the owner of the voice was, she heard the sound and saw that Ke Zhenxi was rushing quickly with bread in his hand.

When Ke Zhenxi returned to the woods, he saw that the two hooligans wanted to do wrong, and he knew that he couldn't beat two of them, so he could only act crazy and deter the other party.

Ke Zhenxi, who has a full stomach, still has a certain fighting ability, after all, moving bricks all year round has exercised his strong physique. He threw out the bread, then jumped high with all his strength and kicked both feet into the knees of the pudty dumpty man, who fell to the ground.

Ke Zhenxi himself was also shocked and fell to the ground, and was just about to stand up, when he was kicked in the face by a tall and thin small-eyed man, and a front tooth flew out.

"Who are you?" The tall, thin, small-eyed man looked at Ke Zhenxi's appearance a little crazy, and he didn't dare to act rashly for a while.

"Whoever he is, he just kicked me!" Humpty Dumpty pulled out the short sword pinned to his waist and looked at Ke Zhenxi viciously.

Ke Zhenxi saw that the other party showed his weapon, and he was scared living in a harmonious society. But at this time, he could no longer allow him to retreat, he turned back and took the fruit knife in Rala's hand, and slashed wildly in the direction of the two opposite.

He was already vicious, but now he had a missing front tooth and a bloody mouth, which made him look even more terrifying.

The soft ones are afraid of the horizontal, and the horizontal ones are afraid of the deadly. Ke Zhenxi means that you are horizontal, and I don't want to die.

Seeing that Ke Zhenxi was desperately fighting with the gangsters, Luo La felt a long-lost sense of gratitude in her heart. Looking at the new clothes and bread scattered on the ground, Lora found herself a little worried about the life and death of this ant.

"I'm not worried about him, I just need his help. Lora thought so, but the thought that she needed the help of this ant made her heart feel ashamed.

"Second brother, this guy is not good. The tall, thin and small-eyed man was timid when he saw Ke Zhenxi's crazy look.

The short and fat man also had this idea, but he looked at the white-clothed Luo La behind Ke Zhenxi, and he was really reluctant to give up, such a beauty, he would never have a chance to do it once in his life.

"Don't pretend to be crazy and stupid with me, I'll kill you if you don't get out. Humpty Dumpty said harshly and rushed over.

Ke Zhenxi saw that the other party was really coming, and he howled angrily, trying to dodge the short sword stabbed by the other party, but he was still stabbed in the arm. He endured the severe pain and swung the fruit knife and slashed through.

The short and fat man was also afraid of death, he couldn't kill with a knife, so he was a little panicked, and when he saw the other party's fruit knife stabbing him, he hurriedly and exaggeratedly retreated, and in a hurry, he tripped over himself. When he fell to the ground, he saw the other party stabbing down, and ran backwards even with a rolling belt, ready to open the distance and besiege his companions.

However, the tall, thin, small-eyed man thought that his companion was going to run, so he turned around and ran.

The short and fat man saw that he had run away, and the numerical advantage was gone, and when he looked back at Ke Zhenxi, who was rushing madly, he was also afraid, and hurriedly chased after his companion, and did not forget to leave cruel words before leaving: "You wait, sooner or later I will kill you, and then I will your woman!"

"You don't matter, do you?" Lora looked at the wound on Ke Zhenxi's arm, blood staining his clothes red.

"It hurts. Ke Zhenxi showed her the flesh that had been cut by the knife, the wound was not very deep, and it should be fine.

Luo La breathed a sigh of relief, took back the fruit knife from the other party's hand, cut open her own clothes, and wrapped Ke Zhenxi's wound.

"Why did it take so long for you to come back?" said Rona after the concerned condolences began.

"I'm not going to pick out some nice clothes for you. Ke Zhenxi picked up the white dress on the ground, which was made of fabric, and it was expensive at first glance, "This dress cost me two gold coins." ”

"Two gold coins, didn't I say that even the most expensive clothes are only one gold coin?" Luo La was a little annoyed, now that Ke Zhenxi began to assert himself, he might get out of her control more and more in the future.

"This dress is the best, you look good in it, and other clothes are cheap. Ke Zhenxi has never bought good clothes for his daughter, basically they are given by relatives, and when he thinks of that hard-working daughter who has suffered with him for so many years, his heart is sour.

"You mean I have to thank you?" Lora felt a little unhappy in her heart, she wanted to say that it was not your money, but after thinking about it, she didn't say it.

"You're welcome, we two fellows think about each other in our hearts. Ke Zhenxi didn't seem to hear the sarcasm in Luola's words, "The jade pendant was exchanged for forty gold coins and five copper coins, three gold coins were used for clothes, and one copper coin was used for bread. ”

When Luo La heard that Ke Zhenxi had only exchanged forty gold coins, she couldn't help but feel angry. Even if her clothes are counted, they are indeed worth the money. But Ke Zhenxi's ordinary blue cloth coat did not exceed five silver coins no matter how you look at it, and he also bought bread on his own initiative. She was even more dissatisfied in her heart, but she still didn't say anything, just glanced at Ke Zhenxi complainingly and picked up her clothes. She had to get out of the woods as soon as possible to avoid any more danger.

When Ke Zhenxi took off the blindfolded cloth strip and saw Rala's white and beautiful lace dress, he smiled with satisfaction, although it was not his money, he still felt that it was his credit.

Luo La glanced at Ke Zhenxi's demented and stupid appearance, turned around, and said, "Let's go, find a hotel to stay in first, and hire a carriage tomorrow." ”

"Is the speed of the carriage in this world the same as that in our hometown?" asked Ke Zhenxi curiously on the way.

"Of course. Luo La didn't want to say a word to Ke Zhenxi anymore, but in order to make the future trip smoother, it was necessary for her to increase Ke Zhenxi's understanding of the world.

Luo explained as she quickened her pace and explained that the time was too short and she had a lot to do. She had to teach Kezhen the lingua franca of the continent of Siguao so that he could understand the world. She also wants him to learn spells and protect her. Fortunately, those two people just now didn't know how to spell, otherwise the two of them would only be able to meet under Jiuquan now.

She glanced back at Ke Zhenxi, the man in the blue craftsman's suit, frowning as he tried to digest the information she had imparted along the way.

She continued: "Of course, there are also energy locomotives that are easier to operate, similar to the cars of your world, the fuel is power stones, most of these things are concentrated in the countries of the League of Nations, which are more expensive, and they are even less common here. ”

"Energy locomotives?"

"Yes, convert the energy of the power stone into mana, and then inject it into the core of the circle similar to the engine on the car. This world also has technology, it is magic technology, and this technology mainly comes from the countries of the League of Nations. Power stones are an ore, like the coal and oil of your world. ”

"Oh, yes, your mother is also my hometown, and she is still a leader in this world, and she must have led the development of spell technology. Ke Zhenxi nodded, looking suddenly realized.

Lora was noncommittal about this, she was not too interested in spell technology, which was only prevalent in the League of Nations, and was considered heretical in other countries.

"I'll talk about this later, I'm going to tell you about spells now, you have to learn spells, or anyone who knows how to use spells will beat you all over the ground. ”

As soon as he heard the phrase "looking for teeth all over the ground", Ke Zhenxi touched his mouth, he was not long ago, he lost his left front tooth, and now the gums are still aching.

"Spells? I remember you mentioned to me earlier that you used immortal arts. ”

"I'll tell you about immortal arts later, you shouldn't be able to touch immortal magic for the rest of your life. I'm talking to you about spells now, don't ask about anything unrelated. Luo La reprimanded mercilessly, not saving Ke Zhenxi face at all.

"Can anyone learn spells, are there any restrictions?" Ke Zhenxi asked again, he was very interested in the mysterious power of spells, and if he knew magic in his hometown, he could be admired like the superheroes in the movies. Even if you hurt someone in the name of righteousness and bravery, you will be treated fairly.

"There's no limit, you can start learning at any age. But everyone's talent is different, and the ceiling is not the same. After learning the spells that suit you in a regular spell school, if you study them seriously for five years, the strength of the spell will basically be fixed, and even if you learn it for a few more decades, the level will not improve too much. Unless he has been learning spells that are not suitable for him before, or if he has not worked hard enough, it is possible to make great progress after correcting it. ”

"So, if you don't have talent, it's useless to work hard?" Ke Zhenxi couldn't help but worry about himself, he was in his hometown, but he couldn't get into high school.

"You're right, but if you don't work hard, no matter how talented you are, you can't do it. Of course, after reaching the upper limit, it is not that you can't improve your strength at all, it's just very slow, and if an intermediate mage can live for more than a hundred years and persevere, it is also possible to raise his strength to a high-level mage. Speaking of this, Lora thought of her mother, who relied on time to elevate herself to the strength of a high-level mage.

"More than 100 years old, do people in this world live a long life?"

"It's the same as your hometown. Lora shook her head and said, showing an impatient expression, "You just came to this world, there are too many things you don't know, we have limited time, you don't want to ask a question, I'm going to explain the spell to you now." ”

Ke Zhenxi nodded, he also felt that what Luo La said made sense, so he didn't ask any more questions.

While speaking, the two of them had already walked to the street, it was getting late, and the energy street lamps on both sides of the road illuminated the blue brick floor white. This kind of energy street lamp, which can only be bought in the countries of the League of Nations, is expensive. The entire Yunxing Kingdom can afford this kind of facility in the capital Yunxing City, which is still built with a loan.

The energy clock now hanging over the square showed that it was eight o'clock, and the taverns in the streets were still open, and although there were not as many pedestrians as during the day, there were many people hanging out in twos and threes.

Even though Lora covered her face with a white veil, her bright black eyes and delicate body still couldn't hide her unique temperament, which attracted the attention of many people along the way.

Although she hasn't been out of Asgard for ten years, Lora has long been used to the feeling of being the center of attention. As she walked, she explained the spell to Ke Zhenxi in a way that was as easy to understand as possible.

"Do you feel the mana in your body?" Luo La looked at Ke Zhenxi, whose face was flushed, and already knew the answer in her heart.

Ke Zhenxi felt that he was constipated, he could indeed feel the mana in his body, but the was almost squeezed out, and he still couldn't let the mana run, and he regretted eating so much bread an hour ago.

Mana is the source of energy for casting spells, and there are many ways to run mana, the most common is the "Circular Mana Operation", which is a very stable way of running mana, and 99% of the magicians in the West use this method.

However, Luo La's teaching Ke Zhenxi is a simpler "Flowing Mana Operation Method", which is very similar to the method mentioned above, but minus the "circulation" link, which is not very stable. The advantage is that it is easy to get started, and the mana generated in the initial stage is stronger than the "Circulating Mana Operation Method", but this mana is a constant value and does not have any growth potential.

In addition to the quick mana operation method, Luo La is ready to teach Ke Zhenxi only one spell for a limited time. By chance a few decades ago, she obtained a cultivation method called the "Chongmai Fist Method". It can be mastered in a very short time and is considerably powerful. This spell is rarely learned, as it has a major flaw that causes irreparable damage to the caster's mana meridians, and long-term use will make the magician unable to run mana forever. It is precisely for this reason that the "Chongmai Boxing Method" has long been lost among the people.

She knew it was immoral, but she was forced to do so.

"This man blocked the road and robbed the society, and caused my mother and me to suffer so much, he deserved it. Besides, I'll give him a lot of money to compensate him afterwards, anyway, looking like he looks like a junior wizard at best. Luo La looked at Ke Zhenxi, who was working hard to practice running mana, and comforted herself like this in her heart.

Thinking of this, due to guilt, she softened her tone and said, "Feel the mana in your body, don't worry." ”

Ke Zhenxi, whose face was flushed, nodded and suddenly stopped. Lora thought he was feeling, and watched him with bated breath.

The loud sound of "poof...... followed by a disgusting smell.

Lora almost fainted without the protection of the spell, and she thought to herself inwardly, "It's still right to let him learn that self-harm spell, and I'm going to make him never use the spell in the future!"
