Otherworldly Carver

"How long will he be with you?"

Wen Yu glanced back: "I don't know."

Wen Yu and Ye Ling turned their heads, and saw Tongxi following behind them unhurriedly with a cold and resolute face.Although his strong man's aura has restrained somewhat, his whole body is still piercingly cold.The orcs and sub-orcs who passed by him avoided him one after another.

Ye Ling turned around: "If he has been following us like this, it will be too conspicuous."

"Such a powerful orc is born to be the focus of everyone." Wen Yu smiled, "Let him follow, anyway, he will not hinder us."

"Don't you feel awkward praising your rival in love so naturally?" Ye Ling teased, smiled slightly, wrapped Wen Yu's arm and said, "Let's go."

Tongxi behind them saw it, and frowned slightly.

The two took Tongxi who couldn't get rid of, and walked into the stone gambling field together.As soon as they walked in, they found it a bit strange. Today's stone gambling field seems to be different from usual.

Mingliu Market is in a mess, and many stalls are not open.Looking around, the stalls are filled with relatively small materials and low-grade carvings, and it is impossible to find large materials that can be used to carve ornaments.Seeing this situation, Wen Yu and Ye Ling couldn't help frowning.

"Ye Ling, I have a bad feeling." Wen Yu took Ye Ling's hand and said, "Wait for me, I'll ask."

Walking to a stall, Wen Yu hurriedly asked: "Stand owner, do you have any materials here that can be used as decorations?"

"What? For decoration? It's gone..." the stall owner said beamingly, "It's all sold out."

"Sold out?" Wen Yu suddenly understood, "The Lan family?"

"Yeah, little brother, don't you know that?" The stall owner smiled, "The big pieces of bright materials I have here were bought by the Lan family last night, and the rest are those that can be used as brands, little brother, you Do you want to see it?"

"No." Only then did Wen Yu realize the seriousness of the problem. He frowned and looked at Ye Ling with a wry smile.

"Don't panic, let's ask another family." Ye Ling comforted.

The two asked a few more stalls, and they were all in the same situation.Unexpectedly, the Lan family's speed is so fast. This is simply to cut off Ye Ling's retreat, so that Ye Ling has no emeralds to carve.

"It doesn't matter, isn't it still possible to gamble on stones?" Ye Ling comforted Wen Yu when he saw that he was depressed.

"Gambling with stones? Probably not..." Wen Yu frowned, sighed and said, "Let's go to the wool shop and ask."

When the two rushed to the wool shop, they saw a lot of orcs pulling away a lot of wool one by one.Wen Yu's heart tightened, and he quickly grabbed a woolen shop owner and asked, "Excuse me, have you sold all these woolen goods?"

Ye Ling frowned: "Is it the Lan family?"

"That's right, there is Mosi, the king of stone gambling in the Lan family, everyone knows that." The wool shop owner said with a smile, "Since last night, the Lan family has sent Mosi to buy wool in large quantities, and these are all selected by him. , I heard that the unresolved stones are temporarily sent to Lanjiatun for storage."

Wen Yu and Ye Ling's eyes became serious.

Judging from what the Lan family meant, they simply didn't want Ye Ling to get the emerald material that could be used to carve ornaments.This method is also despicable, it is inferior to the carving technique, and it is unfair competition to use this method to force Ye Ling.But there is no way out, because the two of them didn't decide what kind of emerald material to use yesterday, so they can only buy and gamble according to their own abilities.Now that these two roads are blocked by the Lan family, what should I do?

Ye Ling raised his eyebrows and looked at the wool. If Mosi was just lucky, Ye Ling would not be afraid, but Mosi's method of picking wool was so strange, it seemed that he knew whether there was jade in the wool.Ye Ling is also considered to be a person with active thinking. He can travel here, so it is not surprising that anything happens.

If that Mosi really has the ability to see the jade in the wool, then it is certain that the wool with the emerald must have been picked by him.It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice. If there is no jade, how will Ye Ling win?

"Don't worry." Wen Yu put his arms around Ye Ling's shoulders, and comforted him softly, "Even if Mo Si is the King of Gambling Stones, it is impossible for him to miss everything. We still have a chance."

There is a chance, but the hope is very slim...Ye Ling also understands this in his heart, but he doesn't want to admit defeat like this.Even if there is only a little chance, it is always a gamble.

"There may also be a wool shop with jade..." Wen Yu thought for a while, then pulled Ye Ling away, "Follow me."

The place he took Ye Ling to was nowhere else, but the wool shop they went to when they first came to the gambling quarry.

Before entering the door, Wen Yu and Ye Ling saw a big black boar dragging an empty cart into the store.Wen Yu's heart felt cold, and he couldn't help but pause in his steps.

Ye Ling didn't know why and asked, "Who is that?"

The boar also saw the figures of Wen Yu and Ye Ling, and there was a trace of sadness on the silly pig's face, and the boar suddenly became Tianpeng, the owner of the shop. Tianpeng said to Wen Yu with a bitter face : "Why are you here again?"

The subtext is: Why did you come to harm me again, you bad gambling king?

Wen Yu always felt a little embarrassed in front of Tianpeng, after all, his performance in betting stones was too bad in the past, which affected a lot of Tianpeng's business.But this time for Ye Ling, he still had the cheek to say, "I'll pick the wool."

After hearing this sentence, Tianpeng looked hopeless, he pointed to the empty cart and said, "Don't say I didn't remind you, Mosi, the stone gambling king of the Lan family, sifted all the ingredients in the shop, I reckon that there are top-quality emeralds in the material, so if you want to buy it, you can buy it, I don’t guarantee that there will be emeralds in it!”

What she said made sense, Wen Yu sighed slightly, with a trace of sadness unconsciously showing on the brows.Ye Ling raised his eyebrows slightly, pulled Wen Yu and said, "Don't be nervous, let's go in and have a look first."

The two walked into the store arm in arm.

The store is quite empty, and there are about one-third of the original stones left.Wen Yu and Ye Ling took a general look. The hundreds of thousands and 10,000+ high-priced rough stones are basically gone, and the low-priced rough stones are also much less. It can be green, but it probably can't be made into a decoration.

It seems that, as Tianpeng said, this Mosi sifted through the entire shop carefully.In this state, not to mention the glass and ice species, there is not even the bean species of jadeite left.

Wen Yu sighed and said: "I used to like to pick wool in this store, because I was unlucky, and even the business with this store was less. I thought this store would leave more rough stones. See It turns out that I was too naive. That Moss is not too stupid, the first thing to deal with is this woolen shop."

"Even if he can pick the rough stone with emerald, but he has limited energy alone, I don't believe he will miss everything." Ye Ling scanned the store, his eyes fixed on one place, "Why is that rough stone still there?"

Wen Yu glanced at it with surprise.The 50 yuan rough stone he likes is still in the old place, and the price has risen to 80 yuan.It's really strange, that Moss didn't buy it?

"I remember it was 50 last time, how did it rise to 80?" Ye Ling asked.

Tianpeng heard it from the side, stepped forward to touch the rough stone and said: "Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer jadeite wool, and there is a stone gambling king, Mo Si, the probability of others getting out of jadeite is getting lower and lower, and the business is getting better and better. It’s not easy to do. But without jade, how can the orcs improve their strength? Therefore, the price of good jade wool will naturally be high.”

"Since it's a good material, why didn't that Mosi buy it?" Ye Ling asked with a frown.

"This... I don't know..." Tianpeng scratched his head and said, "That Mosi also said that it is a good material... I have seen this piece of wool and pine flowers, and the outer skin is very good. From experience, it is definitely 100% green. But that Moss just looked at it and praised it, but he didn’t buy it in the end.”

This is a bit strange.Ye Ling remembered that it was in this store that he first met Mosi. Mosi touched the rough stone with a strange smile on his face, as if he already knew something important.If this rough stone had no green, he wouldn't have that expression.But if there is green, why doesn't Moss buy it?

Wen Yu came over, took a deep breath and touched the rough stone, then turned to Ye Ling and asked, "Do you want to take a gamble?"

"Wait a minute, I'll take a look again." Ye Ling lowered his head and looked at the piece of wool carefully.

As the owner of a wool shop, Tianpeng was right, the performance of this material is really good, it must be 100% green.Such a large piece of wool, even if the emerald is not too big to be cut, the green part is enough to make a piece of decoration.So, should you take a gamble?

Looking at the empty wool store, Ye Ling sighed, nodded and said, "What else can we do? We can only take a gamble."

Wen Yu nodded, looked at the 80 price tag and frowned slightly, then turned to Tianpeng and asked, "How much Dima?"

It stands to reason that bargaining is not allowed in emerald wool shops, but after Mosi's sifting today, the price of all the emerald wool left over from Mosi's selection will probably drop sharply tomorrow.Tianpeng is not someone who takes advantage for nothing, he pondered for a while, and immediately said: "Fold in half, 40."

"Deal." Wen Yu said.

After Wen Yu and Ye Ling paid with the Dima Card, Tianpeng immediately turned into a wild boar again, and put the stones onto the cart one by one, and dragged them towards the stone breaker.Ye Ling didn't expect the Tianpeng beast to be so naive. After staring at the pig's butt for a while, he couldn't help laughing.

"I didn't expect that there are beastmen like this." Ye Ling said with a smile, "It's really cute."

"It's not surprising. Except for a few ferocious beasts, the beasts of the orc race are more common." Wen Yu unbuttoned his clothes and explained, pointing to the emerald belt carved by Ye Ling on his waist, "like mice, cows, and rabbits." Animals, dogs, pigs, etc. are all common animal types. These are also called the twelve animal types, and they are the most numerous types of beasts."

"Really?" Ye Ling just used the patterns of the twelve zodiac signs casually last time, but he didn't expect it to be wrong. He reached out to caress Wen Yu's jade belt, and asked curiously after a pause, "What about the dragon? And the beastman's beast?" Is it a dragon?"
