Chapter 233: Petrified on the Spot (6)
"Those seven raw stones are already enough for you to profit from, so why are you still following me?" Su Luo glared at him unpleasantly and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Uncle Chen, Liu Chengfeng isn't following the stone gambling rules! Come and take care of him!"
Liu Chengfeng was so angry his neck almost twisted. This Stinky Girl really treated Old Chen like her own biological uncle, actually calling for help?
However, the elusive Old Chen actually appeared this time. A pair of gloomy eyes shot a deathly cold gaze toward Liu Chengfeng, his voice killingly cold: "Breaking the rules. Get out."
Then, under Liu Chengfeng's incredulous gaze, Old Chen vanished silently once again.
"…" Liu Chengfeng opened his mouth, swallowed with difficulty, and slowly shifted his gaze to Su Luo's face. Did this Stinky Girl and Old Chen really have a relationship?
"Hmph." Su Luo glanced at him indifferently, picked up several raw stones, and after paying the gold coins, took them to the stone-cutting machine to begin unraveling them.
It was still early, but a few regular customers had arrived at Old Chen's place, and the atmosphere gradually became lively.
Su Luo took the stone-cutting machine from the shop assistant, secured the raw material, and without much effort, rubbed away a layer of the outer skin. The surrounding area was all white; there was no sign of a crystal stone at all.
Su Luo's expression remained unchanged as she unraveled the stone unhurriedly.
At Old Chen's place, it was rare for someone to unravel a stone on the spot. Su Luo's move immediately attracted the crowd, and slowly, the area became packed with people.
Liu Chengfeng's attention was also drawn to Su Luo's side. He involuntarily stepped into the crowd, observing secretly.
He felt that this Stinky Girl's luck was incredibly good; perhaps she could unravel a high-grade crystal stone again this time.
From the corner of her eye, Su Luo saw Liu Chengfeng's figure. Her eyes lowered, and no one noticed the unfathomable depth hidden within them.
skin-clinging crystal stone. The raw stone in Su Luo's hand did indeed contain a crystal stone, but it was the worst kind: a skin-clinging crystal stone.
A skin-clinging crystal stone, as the name suggests, means the crystal stone inside only exists as a thin layer against the skin, while the interior is completely empty. This kind of skin-clinging crystal stone is actually used to scam people.
Su Luo had originally taken an interest in this piece, but when Little Divine Dragon mentioned the four words 'skin-clinging crystal stone' to her, she immediately changed her mind. Since it was a skin-clinging crystal stone meant for scamming, if she didn't scam a sucker like Liu Chengfeng, who else would she scam?
Therefore, Su Luo decided right then and there to unravel this 'reliable' crystal stone here.
Following the lines provided by Little Divine Dragon, Su Luo pressed the handle of the stone-cutting machine and slowly cut down, one slice after another.
This raw stone worth five thousand gold seemed like nothing more than an ordinary rock to her. Her hands were as steady as a boulder, as fast as a gale, and her movements were as graceful as flowing water, without the slightest tremor.
Su Luo's slender, fair fingers lifted the thin layer of skin that had been cut away.
Everyone followed her gaze toward the raw stone. Upon seeing it, in the next instant, almost everyone gasped—
Heavens!!!
What is going on?
A crystal stone appeared, there was no doubt about that, but it was actually, actually a cyan crystal stone!
Isn't this girl's luck a bit too good? A cyan crystal stone! How precious is that? There hasn't been news of a cyan crystal stone being cut in the Imperial Capital for quite some time, right?
For a moment, everyone's mouths hung wide open. They looked at Su Luo as if they were seeing a ghost, unable to snap out of it for a long time.
