The deeper you go, the more splendid and prosperous it becomes.
There are fewer and fewer small stalls, and more and more large tents.
I saw all kinds of red, blue, yellow and green big tents, some of which were set up in a square, and some were in the shape of a barrel. Some have two doorposts at the entrance shutter, while others have red lanterns. Some of them are brightly lit inside, while others are dim inside.
Fang Yuan walked and watched, and finally stopped at a gray tent.
"This is it. He looked up, and saw two pillars at the door of the tent, and on the pillars were carved a couplet.
Left: Xiao Shi courage, get spring, summer, autumn and winter.
Right: Show off your skills and get the wealth of the southeast and northwest.
There is also a horizontal batch in the middle: Time to Run.
That's right, it's a casino.
The casino covers an acre of land and already belongs to large tents.
Fang Yuan walked in. Inside the tent, there are three rows of counters. On the counter were pieces of amber or fossils. The small ones are the size of a palm, and the big ones are the size of a washbasin. There are also larger ones, as tall as a man. Naturally, it can't be placed on the counter, so it stands directly on the ground.
Unlike the bustle of other tent shops, it was quiet.
There were Gu masters standing in front of the counter, some carefully looking at the stones placed on the counter, some picking up fossils and rubbing them carefully in the palms of their hands to feel the feel, some discussing in a whisper with their companions, and some discussing the price with the shopkeepers.
But whatever they say, just speak softly and try not to disturb the others.
This is a gambling stone parlor.
In this Gu world, there are all kinds of Gu that are strange and innumerable. Gu worms have their own specific food, and without food, Gu worms can only hold on for a period of time before they die.
But nature, for life, is both cold and kind.
If there is a lack of food, Gu worms also have a chance to live. That is to fall into a deep slumber and seal itself.
For example, if the Moonlight Gu does not have the Moon Orchid petals, it may seal itself. It will shrink its strength as much as possible, similar to hibernation, and fall into the deepest sleep. At this time, its body will not only dissipate blue, but also fade from a transparent crystal form into a gray stone, shrouded in a layer of stone shell. As the days go by, the stone shell becomes thicker and heavier, and a stubborn stone will form.
Another example is the wine worm, if it seals itself, it will form a white cocoon. It curls up and sleeps in a cocoon.
Of course, this kind of seal sleeping situation does not happen on all Gu worms. The probability of it happening is very small, under normal circumstances, Gu worms will not fall asleep, but will be starved to death. Only a few individual Gu worms will self-seal themselves under certain circumstances.
Some Gu Masters unexpectedly obtained these boulders or cocoons that sealed the Gu worms, and awakened the sleeping Gu worms inside. Some made a small windfall as a result. Some of them soared, and their life trajectories ushered in a turning point. These situations have happened repeatedly in the Gu Master world, and there are often true or false rumors, which lead people to reverie.
This is the source of the boulders in this gambling stone field. Of course, these stones are suspicious in appearance. It has to be opened to determine whether there are really Gu worms hidden inside.
"In a small gambling stone field like this, ** out of ten stones are solid, and there are no Gu worms in them. Even if there are stones with Gu worms, they may not all be live worms, and they are all dead Gu worms. However, once you bet on live Gu, in most cases, you can make a lot of money. If the Gu worm is extremely rare, then it will either soar from now on, or it will be killed and overlooked. ”
Fang Yuan's heart was clear, he was very clear about the doorway here.
In his previous life, he also participated in caravans and worked as a companion in the gambling stone field. Later, he even ran a gambling stone farm, which was larger than this one, and it was a medium-sized gambling stone field. I have been pitted by many gamblers, and I have also walked by, and I have been gambled by others several times with precious Gu worms.
Fang Yuan stood at the door for a while, his eyes swept around, and then slowly walked to the counter on the left.
Behind the counter, a few meters apart stood a guy from the shop, both male and female. They all wore cyan belts around their waists, they were not mortals, they were all one-turn Gu masters. Most of them are beginner, and a few are intermediate.
Seeing Fang Yuan come to the front of the counter, a female Gu Master closest to him walked over, a smile appeared on her face, and she said softly, "What kind of Gu worm do you need from this son?" Each stone at the counter here sells ten yuan stones. If you're trying it for the first time and have a good time, you might as well go to the counter on the right, where the stones are sold for only five yuanshi. If you're looking for excitement, head to the high counter in front of you, where the boulders cost 20 yuan each. ”
This is an experienced female Gu Master who has been working in the gambling stone field for quite some time.
After she saw Fang Yuan come in, she deduced that he was a student from his appearance, age, height, etc.
The people who come to gamble on the stone are all Gu masters, and there will be no mortals. And the students can only be regarded as preparatory Gu masters, who have just embarked on cultivation, and are usually financially constrained because of feeding Gu worms, where will they have any spare money to gamble on stones?
Students like this often just come in to have a look, open their eyes, and make a novelty. The vast majority of them just look at it and don't buy it, and there are a few people with good backgrounds, maybe they will buy it and try it. However, they usually only buy the cheapest fossils.
Therefore, as for how many stones Fang Yuan could buy, the female Gu Master was not looking forward to it.
"I'll take a look first. Fang Yuan nodded at her expressionlessly, and then buried his head in watching.
In my memory, it should be this counter of this gambling stone field.
But five hundred years is really too long. A lot of things are blurry, especially the memory of five hundred years is really a huge reserve. To be honest, Fang Yuan doesn't remember very clearly.
I only vaguely remember that it was in this year, on the first night of the caravan's arrival, that a lucky person spent ten yuan stones to buy a fossil with purple gold on the stone skin.
After dissolving the stone on the spot, he got a toad. Then this toad Gu was bought, and he made a lot of yuan stones because of it.
Fang Yuan looked at it for a while, his brows furrowed slightly.
On this counter, there are more than 20 fossils with purple and gold brilliance. In which piece is there a toad?
Each stone here sells for ten yuan stones. Fang Yuan now had ninety-eight Yuan Stones on his body, and according to this estimate, he could buy up to nine pieces.
But in practice, this is not the case.
Any adventure and gambling has to consider the consequences.
Fang Yuan has long been not the kind of stunned young man, nor is he a pretentious gambler. People who think they are favored by fate are usually succumbed to the tricks of fate.
"I was alone, without the support of friends and family. You must leave some yuan stones to support your life, as well as buy food to feed the Gu worms. He did the math a little, and after the basic guarantee, he could buy up to seven fossils.
"This stone is purple and gold like a star, but it is as flat as a cake, and there is no toad in it. ”
"It's a dazzling piece of purple gold, but it's only the size of a fist. If there is a toad, it should be at least thirty percent larger than it. ”
"This purple gold fossil is big, but the surface is extremely smooth, and the stone skin of the toad is full of pits. Apparently not ......"
Fang Yuan constantly looked at the observation and excluded the screening.
After the Gu worm seals and sleeps, the fossils formed are integrated, and they themselves eliminate most of the detection methods in the world. The remaining detection methods are almost all tough and brutal, and once they are used, they will directly kill the dying Gu worms inside.
Therefore, Gu masters can only rely on guessing, experience, luck, and occasional flashes of inspiration to choose stones.
If it weren't for that, it wouldn't be called a casino.
Of course, there are no surprises in this vast world, and it is not excluded that there are very few gentle detection methods that can let the Gu master know in advance whether there are Gu worms hidden in the stone.
Fang Yuan had heard some rumors in his previous life, but after verification, he found that they were all rumors.
Fang Yuan privately imagined: If there is really such a means to exist, it must be a secret inheritance, and it will only be in the hands of a very small number of mysterious people. It has no impact on the overall situation of the gambling industry.
It's better in this area of Qingmao Mountain, and the further east you go, the more popular casinos become. In the Paekdu area, there is a casino in every cottage. In some large cottages, there are also large casinos. In the three major cottages famous for gambling stone vision: Rock Village, Ancient Tomb Village, and Blue Whale Village, there are also super-large gambling stone fields.
Each of these three super-large gambling stone farms has a history of thousands of years. Today, business is still booming, and there is an endless stream of gamblers. Nothing has ever happened to anyone who has been swept away.
The tent where Fang Yuan was now located could barely be considered a small casino at best.
But if other fifteen-year-olds come here, they will definitely be blinded by these fossils, and even if they choose fossils, they will be completely blind.
But Fang Yuan is different.
First of all, he already knew some of the answers in advance, so the range of choices was suddenly narrowed to less than thirty yuan.
Of course, it is not easy to pick out the only one from these more than 20 fossils.
However, Fang Yuan had five hundred years of experience as a foundation, and with such a strong foundation, he observed for a moment and screened out the six purple gold fossils that best met the standards.
He was eighty percent sure that the toad was sleeping in one of the purple gold fossils!
