I fly with a sword in the magic academy

"What do you mean? I'm here to gamble on stones." Because of the experiences and running around during this period, Shi Daohan's current clothes are so tattered that they can only barely cover his body. They are covered with dried blood and soil. It’s no wonder that people treat him coldly.

"Stone Gambling? Do you have any spiritual stones on you?" asked a middle-aged man guarding Stone Gambling Square.

Shi Daohan took out a fist-sized spiritual stone and said, "What is this?"

"You have the nerve to show off such a small piece of spiritual stone. You really are a country bumpkin who has never seen the world." A sneer came from behind.

The visitor was a man in a green shirt, who looked to be about twenty years old. He was shaking a folding fan in his hand. He glanced at Shi Daohan with a contemptuous look and said: "This is not a place where a pariah like you can come. Yes, go back, don’t embarrass yourself here.”

"It turns out to be Mr. Lin from Cangyuju, please come in!" Several middle-aged men outside Gambling Stone Square came forward to greet him with flattering expressions.

When passing by Shi Daohan, Mr. Lin sneered: "There are always some untouchables who want to make a fortune with a small fortune and get rich overnight. I have seen many people like you. Just go back to the slums and stay there. Don't Have unrealistic illusions.”

No matter where you are, there are always people who look down on others and try to improve themselves by humiliating and belittling others. Shi Daohan was too lazy to argue with them. He looked at a middle-aged man and said, "How many spiritual stones are needed to get in?" Gambling on stones?"

"The rough stones we have here are all dug out from old pits. The probability of shipment is very high. You need to pay a pound of spiritual stones before you can go there to gamble on stones."

The middle-aged man said with a look of contempt on his face: "I advise you to go back to farming honestly. At least you can make a living by being down-to-earth. Gambling on stones is something only the upper class can afford."

Although the words he said were unpleasant and harsh, they were indeed reasonable. Only those upper-class people could afford to gamble on stones. Sometimes hundreds or even thousands of spirit stones would be wasted without feeling anything, but for commoners, In other words, a few hundred spirit stones can plunge a family into despair and fragmentation overnight.

Shi Daohan didn't say much, he just took out a pound of low-grade spiritual stones and handed it to the middle-aged man's hand, and then walked inside.

"Hey, are you really following me?"

In front, the man in green shirt from Cangyu Residence saw Shi Daohan also coming in. He was a little surprised and said in a weird voice: "A pound of spiritual stones. I must have accumulated them for a long time, right? It's really not easy. I hope you won’t lose all your money and commit suicide by jumping into the river later, hahaha!”

"Tsk!"

This man's voice was like a fly, buzzing in his ears endlessly. No matter how good-tempered Shi Daohan was, he was still a little impatient at the moment.

This stone betting house is divided into several courtyards. The rough stones are piled on the ground. They are of different sizes. The small ones are only about the size of eggs when touched, and the large ones are as big as hills. Visual inspection can weigh at least tens of thousands of kilograms.

The rough stones in the first courtyard are undoubtedly the lowest quality. No one chooses to stay here. The rough stones here are basically taken from a certain ravine to fill up the quantity, and the probability of shipment is extremely low.

However, Shi Daohan did not leave in a hurry. He secretly activated the eyeball in his body and wandered around the first courtyard with a serious look on his face.

He wandered around the first courtyard, patting this area and knocking on that area, looking very serious.

There were scoffs not far away, and the middle-aged men guarding the door were leaning against the door frame with their arms folded, watching Shi Daohan's joke.

"If you guys have nothing to do, go and get me a bowl of tea." Shi Daohan said calmly.

"Hey, you are still drinking tea, do you really think of yourself as a person?" A big man responded angrily.

"I paid the money and now I am your guest. Is this how you treat your guests?"

Shi Daohan slapped and knocked on a rough stone in front of him with his hands, without even raising his head, and talked casually with the middle-aged men.

"Come on, he managed to save some spiritual stones, so let's give him some face." A middle-aged man waved his hand and asked someone to get tea.

Shi Daohan walked around this courtyard several times. There were more than a thousand rough stones here, but basically all of them were used to fill the numbers.

There are some that contain spiritual stones, but the quantity is pitifully small.

"What are the rough stones in this courtyard for?" Shi Daohan asked.

Because this courtyard is close to the gate, and almost no guests stay here, the few big men guarding the gate are usually responsible for taking care of it.

One of them replied: "The rough stones here are very cheap. Half a catty of spiritual stones can buy a thousand catties of rough stones, which is cheaper than cabbage on the street."

"That's it." Shi Daohan nodded, then pointed to the huge stone in front of him that was more than three meters high and weighed a thousand kilograms by visual inspection, and said, "You guys can move this stone out for me."

As soon as they heard this, the faces of the middle-aged men immediately turned green. The stone weighed at least one or two thousand kilograms. With just a few of them being monks in the early stages of the Foundation Establishment Realm, they would probably be exhausted even if they were to attack together. .

"Little brother, this stone weighs at least two thousand kilograms. Calculated, it is one kilogram of spiritual stone. Are you sure you want to buy this stone?"

"I think such a big stone should be easy to ship." Shi Daohan smiled brightly and said that he wanted this stone.

"Okay, be cruel! If you can't cut anything out by then, I'll see if you will jump into the river and commit suicide!"

Several middle-aged men gritted their teeth and worked together to lift the boulder weighing more than two thousand kilograms and place it in an open space.

Just when they were about to take a rest, Shi Daohan had already chosen a target, pointed in front of him and said, "Bring that piece and that piece over to me."

She sat on a stone, sipping hot tea and directing several people to move the stone.

Not long after, several middle-aged men were exhausted, lying on the ground out of breath, begging again and again: "Master, please forgive me, we are wrong, please don't torment us..."

"Your Excellency has a lot. Don't be as knowledgeable as us. Just be generous and spare a few of us."

Shi Daohan jumped down from a stone and said, "I'm not deliberately tormenting you. I really want to buy these stones. I have a hunch that these stones will be shipped."

She walked straight to the gigantic stone she had selected at the beginning. Crystal light flowed between her palms, and she began to cut the boulder, and finally got a spiritual stone weighing almost a kilogram.

The remaining stones were also shipped together, adding up to two kilograms of spiritual stones. Not much profit, but at least the money was recovered.

While the middle-aged men were dumbfounded, Shi Daohan walked deeper into the heavy courtyard, feeling that the power of the double pupil in his body was of little use here, so he could try it in a higher-level courtyard.

She went straight to the seventh level courtyard and met Mr. Lin from Cangyu Bureau again.

"Hey, a pariah like you is here, don't you really want to make a big deal out of a small thing?" Mr. Lin said he was a pariah. Shi Daohan ignored him but was very unhappy.

"Since you want to make a big deal out of a small thing, then I'll give you a chance. How about we play a game of gambling?" The man in green shirt sneered.

"Gambling within gambling? How do you want to play?" Shi Daohan asked.

"It's very simple. It depends on how many spiritual stones can be cut out of the rough stone you and I choose. For example, if you cut out ten kilograms, but I cut out twenty kilograms, then you have to compensate me for twenty kilograms of spiritual stones." Qingshan The man explained.

"Just how much does the winner cut out, and how much does the loser have to pay?" Shi Daohan understood the gameplay.

"Not bad, how about it? Do you dare to bet?" There was a sneer on the face of the man in green shirt.

His name is Lin Hong, and he comes from a sect called Cang Yuju. Although his family is not a famous family, it manages some industries and can barely be regarded as a wealthy gentry.

"I can bet with you, but I don't know how many spiritual stones you can bring out to bet against me?" Shi Daohan asked with a smile.

There was a hint of sarcasm on Lin Hong's face, and he said: "Don't worry that I won't be able to get the spirit stone. I'm just worried that you won't be able to lose later and will want to die, splattering me with blood."

The conversation between the two of them immediately attracted the attention of the people around them, and many people looked over.

"Everyone here has seen it. It's this untouchable who wants to bet against me without knowing the truth. Don't say it's me who is bullying others." Lin Hong looked around.

"Okay, we will testify for you!" Many people nearby started cheering.

Only the person in charge of the gambling stone shop looked a little ugly. He was worried that Shi Daohan would want to die because he couldn't afford to lose. How could he do business with blood splattered all over the floor?

Lin Hong patted the rough stone in front of him that he had already chosen and said, "I will choose this one, so hurry up and choose it too."

Shi Daohan turned around and finally chose a rough stone the size of a watermelon and said, "Then I'll choose this one."

Because the rough stone shipment rate in the Seventh Level Courtyard is very high, the rough stones here are also ridiculously expensive. The rough stones they chose are not very big, but the price has reached fifty kilograms of low-grade spiritual stones. The price is really not affordable for ordinary people.

"Ask the master to cut the stone."

The seventh-level courtyard is not like the first-level courtyard. There are dedicated people responsible for cutting stones.

"Okay, then I'll do the surgery."

An old man came over, holding a special long knife in his hand, peeling off layers of stone skin like he was peeling an apple.

The rough stone Lin Hong selected became smaller and smaller, but unfortunately no spiritual stone appeared in the end.

"You're lucky this time." Lin Hong said unwillingly.

Shi Daohan saw that the old man in charge of cutting the stone had no intention of cutting her rough stone, so he couldn't help but ask: "Master, aren't you going to cut my rough stone?"

"Your piece of broken stone looks like waste stone at first glance. If you cut it, it will be in vain. Is there any need to waste time?" Lin Hong said with disdain.

The old man who was responsible for cutting the stone also shook his head and said: "This is a piece of waste stone. No time was wasted on it."

"How can we be sure that it is a piece of waste rock without really cutting it open? I think this rock will yield great value."

Shi Daohan smiled brightly and did not bother the old master. He just slashed it down with his palm knife.

"click"

The moment the original stone was split in half, a soft brilliance overflowed, and a fist-sized spiritual stone was embedded in the stone layer. There was no trace of impurities. It was a pure, high-grade spiritual stone!

"Damn it! Is it really shipped?!"

"It's still a high-grade spiritual stone without impurities. It can at least be worth a hundred low-grade spiritual stones!"

The people watching nearby screamed in surprise.

Even the old master who was responsible for cutting the stone was stunned and said to himself: "How is it possible? This stone cannot be shipped..."

He remembered that he had picked up this stone from a ravine as a supplement. It did not come from a spiritual mine. Logically speaking, it would never be shipped. Why did it just happen to be shipped? And it’s a top-grade spiritual stone the size of a fist?

Shi Daohan peeled off layers of stone skin and held the fist-sized high-grade spiritual stone in his hand. He turned to look at Lin Hong and said with a smile: "A high-grade spiritual stone of this weight can weigh at least a hundred kilograms." Is it a low-grade spiritual stone?"

"How is this possible? It's obviously just a piece of waste stone. How can it be possible to cut out a high-grade spiritual stone?"

Lin Hong's face looked a little ugly. Although one hundred kilograms of spiritual stones was nothing to him, he was extremely unwilling in his heart.

"I'm willing to admit defeat. Everyone sees it. Take the money quickly." Shi Daohan said lazily.

Lin Hong gritted his teeth, but he didn't have the nerve to show off in front of everyone. He took out a cloth bag containing a hundred kilograms of spiritual stones from the storage ring and threw it over.

Shi Daohan took the cloth bag and, after checking it, put it directly into the storage ring.

She was excited in her heart. The double-pupil eyeball was really useful. She felt that she could go to the largest and most prosperous ancient city in Huangzhou to earn greater profits in the future. She would be able to make a fortune just around the corner!

However, in the next few games of gambling, the double-pupil eyeball did not work. Shi Daohan cut nine rough stones in a row but never shipped them.

Instead, Lin Hong cut out a piece of high-grade spiritual stone the size of an egg, reversing the previous losses.

"A blind cat encountering a dead mouse is just a moment of good luck. It doesn't mean anything. You have to lose when it's time to lose." Lin Hong mocked.

Some of the onlookers nearby also made sarcastic remarks.

“If you want to make a big deal out of a small thing and get rich overnight, the end result will only be bankruptcy.”

"This place is not for a pariah like you. Don't give away all the few spiritual stones your family has worked hard to save all their lives."

Shi Daohan frowned. She couldn't understand. The double-pupil eyeball in her body should not be mistaken. Why did it misjudge it repeatedly?

She knelt down and carefully observed the nine pieces of rough stone that had just been cut.

"What are you doing? Can't you accept reality?"

"I don't have much wealth. If I lose so much all at once, I will inevitably lose my mind and be unable to accept the reality."

"What a poor man. I guess he will jump into a river when he goes out later."

Shi Daohan ignored the chatter of the people around him and squatted on the ground staring at the nine cut pieces of waste stone for a long time. He suddenly realized in his heart that he secretly cursed the insidious and cunning people of this stone betting shop.
