Chapter 350 Seven: Betting on Stones.

Standing in the distance, although the outline of Shicheng can be seen clearly, the details are a little fuzzy. Now, Wan Xianer and Mu Chen, even under the gate of Shicheng, saw the unique gate. Those who are determined to be Hirai Mubo can't help but be moved.

Because there is a huge difference between the gate of Shicheng and other towns. Other city gates protrude with a character of "gate", but the gate of Shicheng protrudes with a character of stone, because it has no "gate" at all, and is regarded as "gate". The "door" is the two cliffs that Mu Chen is looking up at at this time. These two cliffs have no trace of artificial construction, but they have the same outline. To put it bluntly, these are simply two twin cliffs.

That is to say, these two cliffs form the unique city gate of Shicheng, while the walls of Shicheng are the rolling peaks. The attitude of the iron wall.

"What a magnificent town, just like nature itself."

Looking at this city formed by nature, Mu Chen couldn't help but slapped his lips.On the contrary, Wan Xian'er's expression was still calm, without the slightest surprise, and Mu Chen just smiled at this, and was not too touched.

I don't know if it is a characteristic of Shicheng, but Mu Chen did not find the guard at the gate of the city. This kind of situation is relatively rare, but Mu Chen is also happy to be at ease, saving someone from checking and wasting a lot of time.These days in the wild, Mu Chen had no chance to wash up because he brought Wan Xianer with him. The only thing Mu Chen wanted to do now was to find an inn as soon as possible, wash up and have a full meal. As for browsing the market, he had to wait for other things. Let's talk when we're done.

Stepping into Stone City, Mu Chen's first impression is that it is a return to nature, because all the houses here are actually made of rocks. If a house has such a design, Mu Chen will definitely feel weird, or feel It is novel, but it will definitely not feel beautiful.But all the surrounding houses have this design, but Mu Chen feels a different kind of natural beauty from the bottom of his heart.

Wan Xian'er couldn't help admiring, "Wow...the houses here are so strange, but they have a very comfortable feeling."

That’s right, it’s indeed a very comfortable feeling, but Mu Chen always felt that something was missing around him. A gust of wind blew up and rolled up the leaves on the ground. Mu Chen suddenly felt a little cold, and frowned, “Why are you alone? nothing?"

That's right, as a huge town, it's a bit weird that there's not even a single human habitation around here.But at this moment, a thunderous cheer spread from the central area of ​​the entire town. Mu Chen was taken aback when he heard the sound, and said to Wan Xian'er who was on the side, "Let's go and have a look."

Wan Xian'er nodded and followed quickly. In an unfamiliar environment, Wan Xian'er began to talk less, not because she didn't want to say it, but because Mu Chen was afraid that she would say the wrong thing easily, so she asked her to say less.

With the two deliberately increasing their speed, they quickly reached the center of the town, but as soon as they got close, they heard someone shouting something loudly.

"The spirit crystal is produced again, and it is still the earth spirit crystal, making a fortune."

"You really deserve to be the Young Patriarch of the Jiang Family. It seems that Young Master Jiang has obtained the true biography of Mr. Jiang, and there will be another genius in Shicheng in the future."

"No, but don't underestimate the young master Song of the Song family opposite. He also opened two pieces of spirit crystals. Although they have no attributes, they were opened in a rough stone. Two pieces at a time Lingjing, this kind of thing is rare."

"That's right, I'm more optimistic about Young Master Song..."

This was the discussion that Mu Chen and Wan Xian'er heard after they got close to the crowd, "Original stone? Spirit crystal? What is this?"

Mu Chen couldn't help being a little puzzled, because he had never heard of these terms before, but Wan Xian'er thought for a while and said, "I don't know what a rough stone is, but I seem to have used a spirit crystal before. It's something similar to a magic core. , but the only difference is that the elemental force contained in this spar is pure natural elemental force, not the essence transformed after being absorbed by monsters."

Mu Chen was taken aback, then asked again, "Is there any difference between the magic core and the spirit crystal?"

Little did he know that Mu Chen's question was louder. Although the front was noisy, it was also heard by an onlooker in front of him. The onlooker turned his head and saw two strangers wearing face-covering hats standing Behind him, judging from his figure, the onlooker could easily detect that the two strangers were a man and a woman.

As if there was no suspicion, the onlookers simply smiled at the two of them and said, "You two should have just come from other places."

When asked suddenly, Wan Xian'er was about to speak, but Mu Chen grabbed her arm. As if infected by the simple smile of the onlookers, Mu Chen took off the mask on his head and smiled back, "This The big brother is right, we just arrived at Shicheng today, but after entering the city gate, we found that there was no one around, and happened to hear a voice coming from here, so we came here looking for the sound, and saw that the atmosphere was very tense. It was lively, but I didn't know what everyone was doing, so I asked out of curiosity."

The onlookers were slightly taken aback when they saw Mu Chen's delicate and immature appearance after taking off the mask, but they immediately reacted and continued with a smile, "Little brother is so young, it's really true that a person who travels far away at such a young age Not much, but you are so young, and it is your first time to travel far away. It is understandable that you don’t know the special products of our Fenglan Empire. The one that everyone is watching is called a gambling stone in the Fenglan Empire. It's kind of a gambling activity."

"Stone gambling? Gambling activities? Can you give us a detailed introduction to this activity?" Mu Chen asked.

"Of course." The crowd patted his chest and said, "You are asking the right person, I am an aborigine here, and I know a lot more than others, have you seen the piles of stones of different shapes over there? Huh? Your eyes are closed, could it be..." The big onlooker pointed to the stand not far away and asked, and then suddenly saw Mu Chen's eyes closed, looking as if he was blind, and said in surprise.

Mu Chen explained, "I'm not blind, so I can see, what happened to those stones?"

The big brother onlookers suddenly said, "So that's how it is. We have also had a lot of strange people here, but I was abrupt. Well, let me introduce to you, those are the raw materials of gambling stones, which we call rough stones, which are mined from the mountains. Stones that come out but are not broken, this is the basis of betting on stones."

"These stones will be marked with different prices because of their quality. Every stone of good quality is worth a lot of money, because there is a high possibility that there are spirit crystals hidden in these stones. Well... Speaking of which, I think you may not If you know what a spirit crystal is, let me briefly explain it. A spirit crystal is a kind of crystal that has been accumulated and condensed in the rocks for many years. From an intuitive point of view, it may be no different from the magic core of a monster, but in essence Speaking up, spirit crystals are much more precious than magic cores."

"Then what's the difference?" Mu Chen repeated the question he asked Wan Xian'er just now.

"What's the difference." The big brother onlookers organized his words and said, "The difference is very big. Let's put it this way, the magic core of the monster absorbs the energy between the heaven and the earth, condenses it in the magic core formed by itself, and constantly uses its own will. Compress it into one's own power. This kind of power is often not easily absorbed by humans, and it is not pure enough, and the amount is still very small. But spirit crystals are different. They are quiet in nature, with the purest Vitality and even spiritual qi are continuously condensed, and after countless years of precipitation and accumulation, they are transformed into something similar to crystals. This kind of crystal not only has abundant vitality, but is also extremely pure, and it does not have a trace of self-will. It seems even more effective than some elixir."

"It is conceivable that its value must be high, and betting on stones is betting on these spirit crystals. The rule is that you can buy some rough stones from these stones, and then break them open by professionals. It contains spirit crystals, so congratulations, you have made a fortune, because every piece of spirit crystal can be sold here for the value of [-] amethyst crystals, and a cheap rough stone only needs one amethyst crystal."

Mu Chen opened his mouth, and said in disbelief, "Wouldn't it be possible for everyone to get rich?"

The onlooker laughed and said, "It's not that simple. If betting on stones is so easy to make money, who would want to sell these rough stones? Why don't you open it yourself at home? Betting on stones and betting on stones embodies the word "gambling". In fact, it can be considered that my analogy just now was not in place. The rough stones of a purple crystal are almost all waste stones. There are almost no spirit crystals in these waste stones, so anyone who has played gambling stones will not choose it. That amethyst crystal rough, because that is pure prodigal."

"So, under normal circumstances, most people are willing to buy rough stones worth tens of thousands. The probability of producing spirit crystals is relatively much higher than other rough stones. Moreover, spirit crystals are only the lowest-level items that are produced from rough stones. , in addition to being able to produce spirit crystals from raw stones, attribute spirit crystals can also be produced. This kind of spirit crystals is undoubtedly a more advanced item. The conditions for their formation are extremely harsh. It is only possible to form an area that maintains a strong concentration, and this type of spirit crystal is undoubtedly the love of attribute warriors. As for the benefits, you can buy one and use it if you have a chance in the future, but the price of attribute spirit crystals is too expensive. An ordinary attribute spirit crystal needs at least 500 million amethyst crystals, if it is a rare attribute, wind, thunder, ice, the value may be higher, but I am unlucky, I have never seen a rare attribute spirit crystal."

Mu Chen was stunned. One spirit crystal cost one hundred thousand purple crystals. After converting this price, it is worth the value of a fifth-level magic core. A fifth-level magic core is at the level of a beast. Looking at the hunting mercenary group, and looking at the stone gamblers here, Mu Chen suddenly felt that the two did not live in the same world...
