C824 Odd-shaped Stone

"There are actually people who buy those rotten rocks? Does this person really not understand or is he an idiot?"

"He must be another young man who dreams of getting rich overnight!"

"I'm afraid that the rich young master from some rich family is here to stir up trouble, just to make a bet."

"I don't think so. Why would the rich young master choose a stone in this first floor's courtyard?"

As the attendant loudly announced the location of Qin Loong's stone selection, all the people around him, whether they were watching or choosing a rock, began to whisper to each other.

The old man who was kind enough to remind Qin Loong just now also sighed and shook his head.

Because the stone Qin Loong chose was too unpopular and odd, it attracted everyone's attention and they all looked in his direction.

Most of them were just waiting to see a joke.

"Excuse me, I'm about to open the rock."

After waiting for Qin Loong and the servant to retreat to the side, he dutifully began to open the stone.

Swish, swish, swish.

The stonecutter cut very quickly this time, because from the bottom of his heart, he felt that there shouldn't be anything decent in this strange ore, and it was very likely that there wasn't.

As if that was the case, the concave stone continued to peel off the outer layer as the stonecutter continued to peel off the outer layer. Soon, only a pebble sized piece remained.

In the entire process, not a single trace of spiritual light could be seen.

"Little brother, I'm sorry, but it seems like there are no Spirit Stone in this ore."

The stonecutter said apologetically to Qin Loong.

"Scholar Shi, isn't that the last bit? Can you peel it off and have a look?"

When the surrounding spectators saw this scene, they all revealed expressions of contempt, but Qin Loong had become even more confident.

Because he could feel that as his master unceasingly undid the outer shell of the ore, the strange feeling he felt became even stronger.

This meant that there must have been something within the cobblestone. Furthermore, it was most likely something extraordinary.

This was because just this small amount of strength was sufficient to cause Qin Loong to have such a strong reaction.

Amongst the people watching from the surroundings, most of them assumed that Qin Loong was a foolish, poor brat who wanted to become rich overnight. They did not bother to conceal their mockery and disdainful words from Qin Loong, but Qin Loong only looked at his master, and did not pay any attention to them.

"Sigh …"

The stonecutter sighed again. Although he felt that it was useless to continue peeling, returning would only make this young man even more humiliating.

But since Qin Loong insisted on it, then as the source of his blame, there was no reason for him to not finish the job.

Although he felt that nothing of value could be found in the remaining ores, the stonecutter still began to turn the large stones into precise materials and began to peel off the remaining ores bit by bit.

Ding!

Suddenly, as a piece of the ore was peeled off, a golden sound came out from the ore. Then, the ore began to tremble a few times and an extremely bright golden light was shot out from a crack!

"What's going on?"

The surrounding onlookers were incomparably surprised to see that after the first golden beam of light shot out, there was a second, and a third … Countless rays of golden light shot out from the cracks on the surface of the ore.

"This... "How is this possible!?"1

The nearby shop assistant was stunned as well, unable to believe the scene in front of him.

This was because this strange phenomenon only occurred when the stone was being broken apart!

An old man wearing a yellow robe quickly scuttled out from the inner courtyard. It was the branch manager of Dvine Stone House, who was in charge of the stone gambling house.

The branch manager stopped near the ore and looked at it carefully. He couldn't help but click his tongue in surprise.

And only Sun Wukong sat on the chair in the arena, laughing loudly in a happy manner that he had expected long ago.

Weng ~!

Along with countless rays of bright golden light shooting out from the ore, the ore trembled once more before emitting a golden hiss. Afterwards, it automatically floated into the air, and the remaining ore skin on its body also automatically fell off.

A little Spirit Stone the size of a fingernail, that occasionally emitted a golden cry while swaying, appeared in front of everyone, radiating a resplendent golden light.

"This... What kind of strange stone was this? That's not right! "The strange stone does not have its own intelligence …"

Shi Mu couldn't figure out what kind of stone it was even though he had read countless words. He carefully thought back to it, and hesitantly said, "Could it be …!?" "What kind of stone is this?"

"That's right, this must be a strange stone!"

In the end, the branch manager was well-informed and directly came to a decision.

Hearing the manager's words, other than Qin Loong, everyone else present was extremely shocked, including even Sun Wukong.

Although Sun Wukong had expected that this ore had quite a decent Spirit Stone, he never would have thought that it would be a strange stone.

This was because a strange stone was even rarer in rarity than a divine stone. It was an extremely special Spirit Stone that possessed a certain amount of intelligence, and could appear in any ore.

Normally, without a great fortuitous opportunity or good fortune, it was impossible to encounter one. Even if one could encounter one, they would not be able to smoothly recognize one's master and use him or her.

"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and report this to the general manager!"

The branch manager shouted to the servant, then cupped his hands towards Qin Loong and asked: "Little brother, how much do you know about this strange stone?"

When Qin Loong saw the crowd's reaction earlier, he naturally understood that he had produced an impressive Spirit Stone. Now that the branch manager had asked him such a question, he hurriedly suppressed the pleasant surprise in his heart, and after he quickly calmed down, he calmly replied: "I am willing to listen to the branch manager's opinion."

Seeing Qin Loong being so cautious, the branch manager's answer was not leaked at all, as he knew that Qin Loong was being cautious.

But the branch manager did not reveal it, because he did not think that he would lie to Qin Loong on this matter.

Because as the most famous first Spirit Stone Workshop in this region, its reputation was extremely important in such big matters. Normally, it was fine even if it was just cheating small fries, but in such big matters, one had to be honest.

Furthermore, the most crucial point was that when such a wondrous stone appeared, it would probably not even be the turn for them, the Spirit Stone Workshop, to interfere.

Hehe, I think you should know this little brother here, but this strange stone needs to be recognized as its master before it can be used, otherwise, it would be no different from trash stone. Therefore, if little brother is unable to make it recognize you as its master and wants to sell it, our Dvine Stone House will definitely offer a price that you are satisfied with, and that will save little brother a lot of trouble.

The branch manager laughed and said to Qin Loong.
