Chapter 210: Surging Luck (4)

But why did it start talking precisely at this moment?

Could it be, could it be related to that final roar when it commanded the Fierce Leopard earlier?

If that's the case, then it truly turned misfortune into a blessing. Su Luo was delighted and rubbed its little head even harder.

It’s wonderful that the Little Divine Dragon can talk; this greatly facilitates her stone gambling. Otherwise, they would be like chickens and ducks talking, making communication very difficult.

"Miss, seeing how beautiful you are, your luck must be beautiful too. How about you cut one open and try? Maybe there really is a Crimson crystal stone inside. This raw stone isn't expensive, just one Gold Coin." The middle-aged man saw Su Luo stop and pushed his sales pitch harder.

Su Luo smiled faintly and said, "Since you, Big Brother, are so optimistic, why don't you cut it open yourself and take a look? Maybe there really is a Crimson crystal stone inside, and you'll hit the jackpot."

Although Crimson crystal stones are the lowest grade among crystal stones, they are not numerous, so the price is not cheap; they start at least one hundred Gold Coins.

The middle-aged man sighed, "My luck is truly awful. Others who buy raw stones from me can always cut something out, but I've been selling raw stones for decades and haven't managed to cut out a single one myself. Don't you think that's terrible luck?"

Terrible, and extremely terrible, beyond measure.

Su Luo held the Little Divine Dragon and handed a Gold Coin to the middle-aged man with her other hand. "Alright, I'll take this one. Uncle, please cut it open for me."

That raw stone weighed over ten catties, making it inconvenient to carry, so Su Luo chose to have the stone cut immediately.

Seeing that he had made a sale, the middle-aged man naturally beamed with joy, but he looked at Su Luo with a worried expression: "Miss, do you really want me to cut it? My luck is really bad."

The implication was, 'Don't blame me if no crystal stone comes out.'

Su Luo smiled and waved her hand casually, saying, "No worries. If something is cut out, just don't claim it for yourself, Uncle."

It was only a Crimson crystal stone; she wasn't in the mood to cut the stone herself yet.

"How could I? Look, it's written right here in black and white: 'Payment received, goods delivered.'" The middle-aged man handed Su Luo a receipt.

Su Luo smiled, "Then cut it." Since the Little Divine Dragon said there was a Crimson crystal stone inside, it must be true.

The middle-aged man adjusted the stone's orientation, made a trial cut, and immediately a cloud of dust billowed out.

The portion of the raw stone that was cut open was still grayish-white, showing no signs of yielding a crystal stone.

The middle-aged man looked at his hands, then raised his head and looked at Su Luo apologetically.

"It's fine, keep cutting. I believe in your luck," Su Luo said with a calm smile and a hint of encouragement in her eyes.

In reality, she didn't believe in his luck; she believed in the Little Divine Dragon's Treasure-Seeking Ability. Cutting out a raw stone this time could also incidentally cleanse his bad luck.

At this moment, someone suddenly approached from the side. He was wearing a cloth robe and a Skullcap, with a sharp-chinned, monkey-cheeked face that immediately suggested he was difficult to deal with.

He stared coldly at the middle-aged man and sneered, "Liu Qi, you still dare to cut raw stones? Aren't you afraid of transferring your bad luck to the customer?"

As he finished speaking, this sharp-chinned, monkey-cheeked man smiled mockingly at Su Luo: "Miss, this must be your first time here? You don't know, but Liu Qi's stall hasn't yielded a crystal stone in a year. Anyone who knows a little won't buy from him. Miss, you've been fooled."

Liu Qi's expression changed slightly, and the hand holding the raw stone trembled a little. He glared angrily at the man—
