I've never written about stone gambling before. Forgive me for being a newbie, I'll have to do it again tomorrow!

As soon as the two drops of dragon saliva came into contact with the surface of the cyan boulder, they immediately sank into it and disappeared without leaving a trace.
At the same time, Ling Yun immediately felt that faint pressure. Even though it was only for a moment, Ling Yun was still able to capture it clearly!
What a great harvest! Today's trip was definitely worth it! This was Ling Yun's first thought after recovering from his shock.
He had to buy this Green Dragon Out at Sea. Even if it was five hundred million or one billion, he would buy it!
"Hu …" Ling Yun was extremely excited. He let out a deep breath and swallowed his saliva before continuing with his experiment.
While no one was paying attention, he took out a bottle of mineral water from his spatial ring, twisted the cap, and poured the water onto the green boulder.
The blue boulder was wet by the mineral water, and the clear water flowed down the surface of the boulder. It only soaked the boulder and made the color of the boulder darker, but it was not absorbed like the dragon saliva.
Green Dragon Out at Sea can absorb dragon saliva …
Ling Yun threw the mineral water bottle aside and walked around the boulder twice while caressing the cold boulder.
This boulder named "Green Dragon Out at Sea" was really too big. Its base was three meters in diameter, and its entire body was dark green. It looked grand and desolate, exuding an ancient aura.
After circling the boulder twice, Ling Yun stopped and raised his head slowly to look at the lifelike dragon head. He frowned slightly as he pondered how to get the Lord of Jade to sell this treasure to him.
Ling Yun was a spell formation master. Just by looking at the placement of this huge rock, he could tell that it wasn't placed randomly. It was in accordance with Fengshui. The dragon's head faced Qingshui Lake in the northeast. Obviously, the Lord of Jade had hired a Fengshui master when he placed this huge rock.
At this moment, a few people saw that Ling Yun wasn't going to the stone gambling area to watch the fun. Instead, he was standing there alone, touching and watering the Green Dragon Out at Sea. They were curious about what Ling Yun was studying.
"Hey, Ling Yun, what are you doing? What's there to study about this boulder? "
Murong Feixue came over as well. She noticed that Ling Yun had been standing there sneakily for half a day. She immediately chased after him and asked.
Ling Yun turned to look at Murong Feixue with a smile. "I'm not studying it, I want to buy it …"
Murong Feixue's mouth fell open in shock. She quickly covered her mouth with her hands.
"Oh my god! It's just a huge boulder. There's nothing special about it other than the shape of a dragon. Why would you buy it? "
Murong Feixue was extremely shocked. She wondered if there was something wrong with Ling Yun. There were so many uncut jades and jade raw materials, but why did he choose such a useless stone?
It had been five years since the Lord of Jade bought this Green Dragon Out at Sea. Even though he spent two hundred million on it, it did bring good luck to the Lord of Jade's jade business. Why would he sell it?
This Green Dragon Out at Sea had been bought by the Lord of Jade for five years. Although he had spent two hundred million on it, it had indeed brought good luck to the Lord of Jade's jade business. After five years of smooth sailing, he had earned back more than a billion. The Lord of Jade wasn't short of money, so why would he sell it?
Ling Yun didn't want to explain too much. He smiled faintly. "It's just for the view. The Green Dragon Out at Sea is such a good omen …"
Murong Feixue was a little speechless, but she couldn't stop Ling Yun since he wanted to buy it. After all, it was their second meeting. She might be tempted, but they didn't have any substantial relationship.
"But the Lord of Jade won't sell it even if you really want to buy it. Many people have come to Yu Ding Xuan in the past two years to buy this Green Dragon Out at Sea. The price has been raised to four hundred million, but the Lord of Jade won't sell it!"
Murong Feixue reminded Ling Yun with a smile.
"Sigh, I'll ask him later. There's nothing I can do if he really doesn't want to sell it." Ling Yun sighed.
Murong Feixue noticed that Ling Yun was about to give up, so she changed the topic.
"Hey, we're here today to watch the stone gambling. It's the most lively over there. My grandpa and Uncle Song are picking the stones. Do you want to go over and take a look?"
Ling Yun didn't know anything about stone gambling, and he wasn't interested in it either. He came to Qingshui City's Antique Market to sweep through everything. He didn't want to waste time on these mundane things.
"Big Sister Feixue, are these stones for sale by Yu Ding Xuan?" He asked Murong Feixue as he pointed at the pile of stones around them.
"Big Sister Feixue, are these stones for sale by Yu Ding Xuan?" Murong Feixue glared at Ling Yun.
Can't I call you Big Sister? He smirked and said, "Of course you're not old. Your skin is so tender and white, delicate and sparkling. You're at most eighteen years old. How about I call you little sister?"
Murong Feixue rolled her eyes at Ling Yun. "F * ck you, you can't be serious at all! Let me tell you, other than this Green Dragon Out at Sea, you can pick any stone you want from Yu Ding Xuan. You can even buy all the stones here as long as you can afford it! "
"But look at the people coming and going here. There are so many people buying jade raw materials. There are so many stalls over there. Not all the stones here belong to Yu Ding Xuan and House of Fantastic Stones. They just take the majority …"
Ling Yun nodded and asked casually, "What's up with those stalls? Isn't this Yu Ding Xuan's backyard? "
Murong Feixue smiled. "The reason why Yu Ding Xuan is so popular is because their backyard is the largest. Many jade sellers rent a stall in their backyard. Every Sunday, when stone gambling is the most popular, they will provide some raw jade stones for the stone gamblers to choose from. They can earn quite a lot of money …" Murong Feixue explained with a smile.
"So it's rented, no wonder …" Ling Yun nodded. Then, he ignored the Green Dragon Out at Sea and walked towards the empty space where the stone gambling was held.
"Hey, why aren't you waiting for someone!" Murong Feixue shouted at Ling Yun's back and chased after him.
"Uncle Song, I'm not here for stone gambling today. I just want to buy some stones that I like. Can you send someone from Yu Ding Xuan to follow me? I want to pick some stones …" Song Zhengyang whispered to Ling Yun as he looked at Song Zhengyang, who was in the midst of choosing the stones.
Song Zhengyang had already picked out a few pieces of jade of different sizes and shapes. He scanned them with his Yin-Yang Eye as he spoke and was shocked.
Impressive, really impressive!
Ling Yun's Yin-Yang God Eye could see three centimeters into the stone. He could see the core of the stones that were seven or eight centimeters in diameter. That was why he could tell that at least three of the five stones that Song Zhengyang had picked were green inside. It was obvious that there was jade inside.
Ling Yun didn't know how Song Zhengyang was the banker, but Song Zhengyang's skill was enough to shock Ling Yun.
Experience, strength, and professionalism! Song Zhengyang had all of them. Moreover, his expression was filled with pride and confidence when he picked the stones.
At least six out of ten stones had jade. No wonder Song Zhengyang dared to be the banker here.
Song Zhengyang was busy picking the stones. He wanted to show off his skills in front of Ling Yun so that Ling Yun wouldn't underestimate him. Hence, he couldn't care about anything else.
"Alright, let the people from Yu Ding Xuan bring you to pick your stones. However, don't be in a hurry to pay the bill after you're done. Let me take a look for you first …"
Hence, Ling Yun didn't bother with the stone gambling anymore. Instead, he found a capable worker from Yu Ding Xuan and brought him around the backyard.
Murong Feixue stomped her feet angrily when she saw Ling Yun running away. She didn't chase after him anymore. Instead, she stood there and watched Murong Wenshi pick his raw jade. She couldn't help but chase after Ling Yun's figure.
It was time to sweep the area. Ling Yun naturally didn't hesitate. He used his divine sense to the extreme and walked towards the areas with the highest concentration of spiritual energy.
"This is not bad …"
"I want this …"
"There's one here too …"
Ling Yun had already picked five or six stones after walking less than twenty meters. Both his and the worker's hands were full.
Wherever Ling Yun went, he wouldn't let go of even a single spirit stone. No matter how well the spirit stone was hidden, he would find it by following the spiritual energy.
Of course, he wasn't satisfied. He smiled at the stunned Yu Ding Xuan employee and said, "Hey, shouldn't you help me find a car or something? The two of us can't take it! "
The shop assistant of Yu Ding Xuan was stunned. He had worked here for so long, but he had never seen someone choose uncut stones like this. He went to a pile of stones and randomly picked up a stone?
He didn't look at the color, the texture, the pattern, the magnifying glass, or even a strong light. How was this picking jade? He was simply picking stones!
"Erm … Mr. Ling, right? I have to remind you, you'll lose money if you pick stones like this, really! "
"Let's not talk about the experts over there. I don't think there's any jade in the stones you picked …"
The worker from Yu Ding Xuan comforted Ling Yun out of goodwill, but his eyes were filled with disdain. He felt that Ling Yun was wasting money.
"Thank you for your reminder, but I'm just here for fun. Hurry up and find me a carriage!"
The worker from Yu Ding Xuan found a cart specially for transporting stones. Ling Yun grinned as he carried him on his shopping spree.
Ling Yun was definitely doing a big sweep this time!
Not only did he use his divine sense to search for spiritual energy, but he also used his Yin-Yang Eye to the extreme. As long as there was any jade in the stone, he would put it on the cart without any hesitation.
Half an hour later, Ling Yun and the worker from Yu Ding Xuan had completed a third of Yu Ding Xuan's backyard. The cart was also filled with all sorts of oddly-shaped rocks. The worker could no longer push it.
"That's it for now, I'll pick later …"
Ling Yun saw that the worker wasn't willing to accompany him, so he had to stop his shopping spree.
Just as Ling Yun was about to push the cart himself back to the stone gambling area, he suddenly saw a huge black stone with a diameter of one and a half meters! (To be continued.)
