While the two were talking, Lu Jing heard another noise coming from outside the door.
Then I saw the guy running in hurriedly, talking anxiously to the female shopkeeper.
Lu Jing raised his eyebrows and asked the female shopkeeper, "Are these city guards coming from outside?"
The female shopkeeper looked embarrassed, "I think it was the people who were frightened by Lu Shaoxia's coffin who reported it to the officials. It must have been a misunderstanding... I will go out and explain to them.
"If it hadn't been for you, Mr. Lu, just now, the three of us in the store would have died under the sword of that armored warrior."
Lu Jing shook his head when he heard this, "I'm afraid it's useless to just explain this kind of thing."
"So Mr. Lu, what do you mean..."
"I'd like to ask the shopkeeper to help me tell the guards that I want to see the lord of this city."
"I'm afraid...it won't be easy." The female shopkeeper felt a little embarrassed when she heard this.
"These guards were previously ordered to expel all foreigners from the city. I guess they don't want to take you, Mr. Lu, to see the city lord."
"It doesn't matter, just help me tell them." Lu Jing said, "I have a way to convince them."
The female shopkeeper didn't know where Lu Jing's determination came from.
But at the moment, she had no better solution. She could only accompany Lu Jing to the tailor shop with doubts.
As a result, before he could go out, he saw that the guards outside had rushed in, and each of them drew out their machetes. As soon as they saw Lu Jing, they waved them in the air and shouted something loudly.
Seeing this, the female shopkeeper hurriedly stopped between the two parties and defended something loudly.
Unfortunately, her efforts had no effect. She saw that the guards remained unmoved and approached Lu Jing step by step.
The female shopkeeper was so anxious that sweat was forming on her forehead, but the client behind her actually had the time to ask her.
"Have you told them what I said?"
"Now...is not the time to say such things."
The situation was about to get out of control. How dare the female shopkeeper add fuel to the fire and tell the guards in front of her Lu Jing's request.
"Yes," Lu Jing nodded when he heard this, "Then I'll convince them first."
Before he finished speaking, his figure suddenly disappeared from the place.
Then the guards felt their eyes blurred, and all the weapons in their hands flew out involuntarily!
Looking up again, he saw that Lu Jing had retreated back to where he was.
It was as if he had never left.
But now he has seven more scimitars in his hand.
"Tell them I'll do a trick for them."
After Lu Jing finished speaking, he picked out a scimitar.
Transfer internal energy to your fingers.
The next moment, I saw two more deep fingerprints on the fine Bailian Scimitar.
Malazar Khan is located in the Mingsha Desert. At most, there were only 30,000 people in the city. Before Lu Jing arrived, the people here had never seen a top-notch expert take action.
Seeing this scene now, the seven guards on the opposite side only felt inexplicable horror. It was no different from seeing ghosts and gods coming to the world with their own eyes.
How dare you take action against Lu Jing again.
Especially the captain in the lead, he was the closest and could see it most clearly.
In addition, the scimitar chosen by Lu Jing was also his family heirloom sword.
No one knows better than him how hard that knife is.
He had used this sword to cut off many opponents' weapons, and he had always been proud of it.
As a result, the man opposite used only two fingers to make a mark on the scimitar. How hard should his fingers be? !
Everyone was still in shock, but they didn't expect that Lu Jing's trick hadn't been completed yet.
After pressing the fingerprints, Lu Jing took out another knife and crossed the two knives.
Still using his fingers, he twisted the two scimitars together like twisting a twist.
Then a third one was added, a fourth one...
Until all seven scimitars were twisted together.
The captain could no longer hold on, his knees weakened, and he knelt down directly on the ground. When the other guards behind him saw this, they all followed suit and fell to the ground.
Lu Jing coughed slightly and said to the female shopkeeper who was still in a daze, "I'm done persuading you. Now you can tell them the reason for my visit."
"Oh, by the way, and also," Lu Jing handed the twisted iron knot in his hand to the female shopkeeper, "Let me tell them again that I came from afar and didn't prepare any greeting gifts for their city lord. You can only use this thing to recharge.
"This is what I made based on a famous folk delicacy of the Chen Dynasty, called...Tianjin Mahua."
When Lu Jing said this, he rarely blushed. In fact, according to his original intention, he wanted to make a flying dragon to open the eyes of the people of Malazar Khan. However, although he had great internal strength, he was not very good at manual skills.
In the end, I couldn't stand the flying dragon I made, so I had to use Tianjin twists to fool it.
Just bully Malazar Khan because he has little knowledge.
After the captain listened to the female shopkeeper's translation, he respectfully took the bunch of iron twist flowers from the latter's hand, then bowed his head to Lu Jing and touched his chest with his hand to show respect.
Then he took the people away in a hurry.
After they left, the female shopkeeper was still a little worried, "Just let them go, what if they bring more people to trouble you later?"
"You said earlier that there are more than 20,000 people in the city. How many guards are left, five hundred, one thousand?" Lu Jing said calmly.
The female shopkeeper shook her head, "How can there be so many? There are few fights between the city-states in the Mingsha Desert, because if they send out troops to attack others, they may encounter a sandstorm and be wiped out first. Therefore, the guards of each city Not much, just used to maintain daily security.
"Malazar Khan usually has less than 300 guards, but now... there are probably more than 100 left."
"Then after seeing the gift I carefully prepared, as long as the city lord of your city is not too stupid, he should agree to my request." Lu Jing said.
Facts have proved that people who can manage a city-state, even a small city-state in the desert, are not too stupid.
Less than half an hour after that group of guards left, more guards came to the door of the tailor shop.
The leader is said to be the city lord's son-in-law, named Yazdan, who is in charge of the financial power of the oasis and is also the second-largest person in the city.
When she saw the formation outside the door, the female shopkeeper couldn't help but feel anxious, but then she saw Yazdan walking in alone from the outside.
And as soon as they met, they put their hands on their chests to express their respect.
"I heard that a warrior has come to our city-state, which is the glory of Malazar Khan." The female shopkeeper translated for Lu Jing.
Then her expression became weird, "Yazdan also said that his father also received the gift you gave him and liked it very much... However, his father has been ill recently and is afraid that he will not be able to see guests. .”
"Then ask him, can we go to their palace and see the mural?" Lu Jing asked again.
