If you want to see something in console, you have to use print().
def sum_two_or_more(x1, x2, *args):
if args:
second = sum_two_or_more(x2, *args)
else:
second = x2
return x1 + second # Pay attention to the indentation
print sum_two_or_more(1, 2)
print(sum_two_or_more(1, 2)) # <- Python3I recommend you to use/learn python3.

One, you want to unindent the return statement. It's not a problem here, but if you give it three values, it will return None.
Two, try printing the result. As in:
print(sum_two_or_more(1, 2))Three, upgrade to Python 3.6. Support for 2.7 is ending in a couple years.
