The young man saw that Shen Lingyue insisted on going, until he couldn't stop him, so he said: "There are actually a lot of guides, but many guides are also more deceitful. ”

He thought for a moment and said, "Miss, wait for me first, I'm just about to get off work, I'll be your guide." ”

Shen Lingyue said: "I heard you say that you often go to the gambling stone field to work, and it is best for you to be the guide, I will wait for you here." ”

After settling the account with the young man, he sat here and waited for him.

The young man was very efficient, and he didn't let Shen Lingyue wait long before coming back.

Shen Lingyue followed the young man out of Tao Ranju, and while walking, the young man said: "Because the gambling stone field is quite large, it is not located in the most prosperous area of this imperial capital where every inch of land is valuable, but the road is not far, as long as the young lady follows me." ”

Shen Lingyue nodded and said, "Then everything is up to Brother Lao." ”

The young man took Shen Lingyue to turn around, left the most prosperous street in the imperial capital, and walked for about half an hour to come to an alley.

After entering the alley, I walked forward for about 100 meters, stopped, pushed open a door next to it, and walked in.

After entering, Shen Lingyue found that there was a cave inside, it was a very open field, and there were stalls on the venue, each stall was not small, and there were piles of ores like a hill on it.

It's crowded and bustling.

Shen Lingyue thought to herself that there was no sound at all outside the courtyard wall just now, obviously a soundproof barrier was arranged.

And as the young man said, there are very few women here.

The young man took Shen Lingyue and said as he walked: "Miss, this is the largest and best quality gambling stone farm among the many gambling stone farms in the imperial capital. ”

Shen Lingyue said: "My surname is Shen, you can call me Miss Shen." ”

The young man answered yes.

Shen Lingyue said: "What kind of gambling method is the ore here?"

The young man said: "It's very simple, there are prices on it, some of the prices are a bunch of prices, and some are a price for each piece, and they are all very clear."

Miss Shen only needs to pick the selected ore and settle the fee.

After settling the fee, you can choose to take it with you or open the stone here.

As long as you buy the stone here, the stone is free, you can ask someone else to help you open it, or you can choose to open the stone yourself.

Miss Shen, what is placed there is a machine used to open ore. ”

Shen Lingyue looked in the direction of the young man's finger and found that there were more than a dozen operating tables in the middle of the square, on which were placed all kinds of tools needed to open the stone.

Now, except for a few vacant consoles, the other consoles are surrounded by a large number of people watching the excitement.

Shen Lingyue had never seen ore mining before, and out of curiosity, Shen Lingyue unconsciously walked there.

Approached one of the operating tables and watched carefully.

I could only hear a staff member of the gambling stone field on the operating table shouting loudly: "Everyone, everyone, please look here." ”

When Shen Lingyue heard the reputation, he saw a group of people around the operating table, and at this moment he was looking at a middle-aged uncle on the operating table.

Shen Lingyue had never seen it, and she looked at the uncle on the operating table curiously.

I heard the uncle shouting: "Everyone, according to my old Meng, this piece of ore may really be able to cut something." ”

"Cut ......"

There was a disdainful voice all around.

There was that good thing and said: "Old Meng, yes, you once cut out the best spirit crystal, but that was a long time ago?"

"That's right, old Meng, it seems that after that, you have never opened any good things, all of them are waste rocks. ”

"Yes, yes, yes! And the face boasted about it. ”

"That is, we admit that your level of stone cutting is superb, and almost no one in this gambling stone field can surpass you, but that doesn't mean that you are lucky!"

......

The people around you are talking to me word by word.

That old Meng had an expression of a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, "This time is different, don't believe it, my old Meng has been there to worship today's gambling stone."

If you don't believe me, we'll see. ”

I don't know who shouted, "Lao Meng, as long as you can open a piece of spirit crystal tonight, Lao Tzu will invite you to eat and drink." ”

"Okay, let's compare it. I still don't believe it, I can't make a good stone this night. As he spoke, he observed a piece of ore on the table, then found a suitable place and cut it down.

Don't say it, Lao Meng's stone opening technology is really good, this knife suddenly reflects the professional quality, which can be summed up in three words: stable, accurate, ruthless!

Shen Lingyue unconsciously glanced at Lao Jia and found that when he was not working, he looked like a hanger, but once he held the stone cutter in his hand, the whole person seemed to have changed a lot, and he was very serious and dedicated.

"Hahaha......"

There was a burst of laughter from under the console.

"Old Meng, what did you prescribe?"

"Lao Meng, I don't think that thing is even a stone, it looks like it will break if you pinch it lightly. ”

"Lao Meng, I said it, I won't let you open the stone, I won't let you open the stone, but you see, it's over!"

"Young man, I told you a long time ago, don't let Lao Meng Kaishi, you don't believe in evil, how are you now?"

There was a laughing voice under the console.

The young man was a young man in his twenties, although he was distressed, but he didn't show it on his face, but said with a smile: "Thank you for your concern, I am very optimistic about Lao Meng." ”

After speaking, he raised his head and said to Lao Meng: "Don't be stunned, Lao Meng, continue to start, don't you see that there are still many people queuing up behind?"

The piece of ore just now was the first stone that Lao Meng drove today, but he didn't expect it to fail.

However, he was not discouraged, and when he heard the young man's words, he hurriedly picked up another piece of ore, chose a good position, and wiped it down, but found nothing.

Lao Meng was angry, and opened three more ores one after another, but all of them were waste rocks.

Just as he picked up the next piece of ore and wanted to continue to open the stone, the young man suddenly said, "Wait, old Meng, the rest of this is not opened." I'm going to take it back and drive it slowly. ”

After saying that, he stepped forward and put away the ore, turned and left.

Lao Meng looked at the young man in the distance in a daze, and then looked at the stone cutter in his hand, with a complicated expression.

He has been cutting stones for decades, from apprentices to masters, but he didn't expect his luck to be so bad recently, and he didn't even open a good stone.

This directly led to people no longer looking for him to cut stones, for fear of being contaminated with his bad luck, which is a taboo in this line of work.
