Chapter 252: Turned to Stone

Yi Jiuxiao glanced at Yu Yan and asked, "How many people were there in previous years?"

"In the past few thousand years, most of the recruitments have exceeded 40, and there have been several cases of underrecruitment. ”

Hearing Yu Yan say this, Yi Jiuxiao felt that the Dream Platform was even more difficult.

With so many people taking the test, even dozens of them can't get out, the difficulty can be imagined.

Most of the subjects were strangers to each other, and few spoke to each other, and everyone waited quietly.

In the silence, suddenly the white light of the Dream Platform in front of him flashed, and the entire Dream Platform was then shrouded in white light.

With the appearance of the white light, a voice came to mind in the void: "The Dream Platform has been opened, everyone hurry up and take the stage." ”

The people around the Dream Terrace all scrambled to jump up, and disappeared into the white light.

Of course, Yi Jiuxiao and Yu Yan were not slacking off, the two glanced at each other, and they also jumped into the white light with the flow of people.

The moment he took the stage, Yi Jiuxiao felt the white light dazzling, and his eyes suddenly couldn't see anything.

At the same time, he felt that the white light seemed to pierce his sea of consciousness, and a violent dizziness swept over.

Then he fainted, though in his heart he resisted with all his might.

I don't know how long it took for him to slowly wake up, and he no longer felt dizzy.

Soon he heard the sound of clanging, easily distinguishable, the sound of gold and iron striking stones.

Yi Jiuxiao wanted to move his body, but he couldn't move at all, and he found that he had turned into a stone.

And the eyes can't see, the only thing that can move is the divine thought, but the divine thought does not stretch far.

What was going on? In fact, without much thought, he was sure that he was dreaming.

He was the most sensitive to dreaming, more sensitive than anyone else.

And he also has a way to break dreams, as long as he uses his divine thoughts to sacrifice the heavenly bow and the thick earth arrow in the sea of knowledge, the dream will naturally disappear.

But Yi Jiuxiao still had a trace of clarity in his heart, and he knew that he couldn't do this, which would bring unpredictable consequences.

Between thoughts, he felt very painful, knowing that he was in a dream, but he didn't know how to wake up.

At this moment, he suddenly felt his body move.

It's just that he wasn't moving, but someone else was moving, and a sturdy man lifted him from the ground.

Then he landed among a pile of stones, and in his mind he felt that he had fallen into the carriage of the carriage.

"This stone is in good condition, and it may be able to uncover some treasures. ”

The man who moved him just now patted the dust off his hands and gossiped with his companion who was also carrying stones.

"It's hard to say, some stones are beautiful on the outside, but dead bumps on the inside. The companion replied.

Then both of them were silent, and continued to move the stones from the ground into the carriage.

Yi Jiuxiao felt that there were stones in front of him and behind him, up and down, but there was no sense of pressure or pain.

After about half an hour, the carriage was full, and then the carriage moved.

Four horses pulled carriages with a dozen stones, left the quarry and walked on the road.

Yi Jiuxiao sensed the surrounding stones with his divine thoughts, and he didn't know if these stones were conjured by other monks.

But he couldn't see anything, and his mind could only reach a few feet away, let alone penetrate the stones.

For half a day, the carriage stopped, seemingly in the midst of a noisy market.

The surrounding area is full of people, the flow of people is continuous, and all kinds of shouts and shouts are one after another.

"Everyone, there are new stones in the old Hu family's shop, let's go over and have a look. ”

"This batch of stones is in good condition, and it seems that they can produce treasures. ”

"Brother, why don't you strike first and open a stone to see. ”

While the stone was still in the carriage, it was surrounded by people of all shapes, and uttered all kinds of words.

Soon someone came to move the stones, and the stones in the carriage were moved to the ground piece by piece.

Yi Jiuxiao was naturally no exception, he felt that he was placed at the door of a shop, at the mercy of customers.

There were people passing by him, and people leaning down, looking at him, touching him.

Whenever someone was looking at him, the guy in the shop would open his mouth and say a repetitive sentence.

"The guest officer really has an eye, this stone is as smooth as jade, and there must be a treasure in it. ”

Most of the guests just look at it and don't answer the guys, and they hear too many of these clichΓ©s.

Of course, there are also people who will talk back and joke about the guys.

One of them said, "Boy, you said this stone is good, do you dare to open it on the spot?"

The man was speechless for a moment, and instead of confronting the guest, he continued to shout at the other stones.

A stone next to Yi Jiuxiao was picked by someone else, and it was cut on the spot.

Among them, an ancient elixir was found, which had been lost for thousands of years.

For a while, cheers rang out, and after that, people kept bidding for this elixir.

Yi Jiuxiao was not a cultivator, and he didn't understand the elixir, but he could feel the rarity of the elixir from the sound of the scene.

In the end, this elixir was bought for 500,000 medium-grade spirit stones, which was a thousand times higher than the price of buying stones.

Because it was very close, Yi Jiuxiao's divine mind had examined this stone, the texture was rough and extremely ugly.

"The uglier the stone, the more it can open to the baby. ”

These are the words of the lucky person who prescribed the pill just now, and naturally it has become a golden word.

Because someone opened a strange treasure, the people in the bazaar flocked to buy the stones of this house.

Soon, the stones in front of and behind Yi Jiuxiao were bought, and they were also cut on the spot.

But no cheers were heard anymore, and most of the stones were stones, which were still stones after they had been cut.

There are only two stones that have been cut open and there is something in them, but they are just broken magic weapons, and they have no value.

In the end, all the stones that came from the same car were bought by the guests, but the stone that Yi Jiuxiao turned into was not cared for.

The previous onlookers also dispersed one after another, and the later dozen stones disappointed everyone.

Yi Jiuxiao lay lonely on the ground in front of the shop, and he guessed that it was possible to get out of the dream after being cut.

It's just that no one takes a fancy to him, even if it's a guy who recommends it to past guests.

"The last stone, mined from the ancient treasure, is now sold cheaply, and I will close the stall when I sell it. ”

"You said it was cheap, how much does it cost?"

Two fourteen or fifteen-year-old boys stopped at the door of the shop and asked the guy who was shouting loudly.

The two teenagers were dressed as servants, and they seemed to be small servants of large families, or scholars.

"Two little brothers, this batch of stones was originally sold for five hundred medium-grade spirit stones, but now they are sold to you at half price. ”

The shopkeeper's eyes were very poisonous, and he could see at a glance that these two teenagers were the owners who had no money.

"Half the price also costs two hundred and fifty medium-grade spirit stones, it's not cost-effective to buy the remaining stones, let's not want it." ”

One of the teenagers said to the other, two hundred and fifty medium-grade spirit stones were not a small amount for them.

The two teenagers turned around and wanted to leave, but they saw that the shopkeeper seemed to be ruthless.

Then I heard him say: "Two little brothers, don't go, give a hundred spirit stones and you will take them, and I should give them to you." ”

"A hundred spirit stones?"

The young man who wanted to buy it had a happy look on his face, and stopped to ask the man.

"That's right, it's a hundred spirit stones, you don't want to be robbed right away. The guy replied.

The young man didn't hesitate any longer, and without consulting with his companions, he took out a hundred medium-grade spirit stones and handed them to his buddy.

The guy took the spirit stone, put it in the storage bag, and asked the two teenagers, "Two little brothers, do you want me to cut it for you?"

"No, we want to cut it ourselves, in case there is something good we can't protect. ”

One of the teenagers said that he had a point, and that if there was a treasure, someone would force it to buy it.

"Then it's up to you, let me remind you, there are rules for buying stones, you can't put them in storage rings and storage bags, in case any of them is alive and dies, you have to move out. ”

Hearing this, the young man replied, "Let's move back, this stone is only a few hundred pounds." ”

For cultivators, a few hundred catties is actually nothing.

The young man who bought the stone fought with both hands, and carried the stone that Yi Jiuxiao had turned into to his shoulder.

Then the two left the bazaar, and along the way they took turns carrying the stones, and walked for more than ten miles.

Later, when I entered a house, I heard someone asking, "Did you buy this stone?"

"No, we picked it up on the road. ”

The young man who bought the stone looked a little nervous, and did not dare to tell others about his purchase of the stone.

The person who asked him seemed to be in charge, and he only heard and said, "It's good to pick it up, but you can't do the thing of gambling stones." ”

The two teenagers nodded again and again, and said, "Steward, we know." ”

A moment later, the two teenagers came to their room, and closed the door as soon as they entered, because of weakness.

"Do you want to cut it now?" asked his companion the young man who bought the stone.

"You've bought them all, you're going to cut them open, even if you don't have anything. ”

Yi Jiuxiao listened to the conversation between the two teenagers, and his heart was quite anxious.

He wanted to be cut open soon, but he didn't know if it would hurt when he cut it.

The young man who bought the stone then took out a knife, which was a magic weapon, which seemed to be very sharp.

The boy didn't seem to have any experience in cutting stones, so he didn't know where to start with a knife.

"Is it all in half?" the boy asked his companion again.

The companion thought for a moment and replied, "No, if there is something good in it that you have also cut in, you should slowly peel it from all sides to the center." ”

The young man with the knife nodded, and felt that his companion had a point, so he really used the knife to cut from all sides.
