I fly with a sword in the magic academy
Chapter 169 Shocking Gamble (Part )
"You want to touch this stone? This thing is very evil. I would advise you not to mess around." Xiao Yuzhu secretly sent a message.
"This stone gives me a very special feeling." Jiang Yue picked up the stone that looked like a human head and raised it above her head, facing the sun and looking at it carefully.
A group of old monsters followed Jiang Yue enthusiastically, talking to each other.
"The elixir has been secretly sent away, and will be auctioned at the Liyue Temple in the near future. I can't see it today, but if I can witness the mystery of this strange stone with my own eyes, it won't be in vain for me to break through the barrier myself. "
"This stone has been placed here for many years, but no one has dared to move it for fear of causing unpredictable karma."
Inadvertently, Jiang Yue saw a familiar figure standing on a pavilion not far away, looking at her, ethereal and natural, blending in with the surrounding scenery.
It was the saint from the Jade Holy Land who came here at some unknown time.
She was dressed in a pure white Taoist robe, with no clouds or mist surrounding her body, and no brilliance covering her body. Only a natural and ethereal Taoist charm was circulating, making it difficult for people to see her true beauty.
In addition, Jiang Yue also saw Saint Gu Qiu from Xianliu Island, and the saint from Tianxian Academy also came.
In Yunhai Fengxie, these people had all suffered at the hands of Jiang Yue. Now that they met again, Jiang Yue didn't blush, her heart didn't beat, and she didn't think they would be recognized.
Suddenly, a dazzling light flashed in front of her eyes, causing her to squint her eyes.
"Did you see it just now?" Jiang Yue rubbed her eyes and looked at the people behind her.
"What did you see?"
"Did something happen just now?" Everyone looked at each other in confusion, confused by her unprovoked question.
Seeing their reaction, Jiang Yue rubbed her eyes, thinking that she might have been dazzled by the sunlight.
She put the stone back, put her palm on it, threw away distracting thoughts, closed her eyes and listened carefully.
According to Xiaozhuo, all spiritual substances in the world, as long as they are born with the two qi of yin and yang, can resonate with the innate Tao embryo.
At this moment, her innate charm flowed out from the inside out. Of course, this was not intentional on her part. It was a natural expression after she entered that ethereal and selfless state.
However, because the formless method is still operating, although others can detect her innate aura, they cannot directly peer into the source and discover her true identity.
The third prince's expression changed slightly after feeling the mysterious and mysterious aura around Jiang Yue.
He stood at the front and involuntarily took a few steps forward, almost touching Jiang Yue.
On the other side, Tantai Jingyi narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the girl in front of him closely.
He felt that the young girl in front of him was more extraordinary than he had imagined. She gave him a very special feeling, but he couldn't think of the words to use to describe it. In short, she was just very special.
Everyone else was paying close attention, and the noise gradually died down.
About the time it took her to touch the incense stick, Jiang Yue slowly opened her eyes, retreated from the ethereal and mysterious state, and returned to normal.
"How's it going? Did you find anything?" Xiaoyingzhao asked eagerly via voice transmission.
"I sensed a kind of Qi, which is both evil and ethereal. It's very weird." Jiang Yue held her chin in thought while sending a voice message to Xiaozhuo.
"What's the price of this stone?"
When she turned around, Jiang Yue was startled by the Third Prince and Tantai Jing who were standing close behind her.
"What are you two doing?" Jiang Yue took a big step back and looked at the two of them suspiciously.
The third prince and Tantai Jing came to their senses and quickly took a few steps back, not to mention how embarrassed they looked.
They were completely attracted by the aura of the innate Tao Fei just now, so they couldn't help but come closer without any intention of offending.
Jiang Yue didn't take it seriously. She turned to look at the old woman and said, "Senior, I wonder how much this stone costs?"
"Five million high-grade spiritual stones." The old woman said calmly.
"Half a million, or a high-grade spiritual stone? It's so expensive to rob!" Even though she was prepared, Jiang Yue was still frightened by the price.
At this time, she only had 300,000 high-grade spiritual stones, which she had just won from the third prince. Where could she find another 200,000 high-grade spiritual stones?
She cast her eyes on Tantai Jing, smiled and asked, "I wonder if Brother Tantai has a lot of money? Can you lend me two hundred thousand first?"
"No problem, let's just make friends." Tantai Jing smiled.
Two hundred thousand high-grade spiritual stones is not a small sum of money, but in Tantai Jing's eyes, the value Jiang Yue can bring to him is far more than two hundred thousand high-grade spiritual stones, so he is also willing to take this opportunity to make a good relationship with him. relation.
Finally, Jiang Yue bought the strange stone that looked like a human head for 500,000 high-grade spiritual stones and began to prepare to unravel the stone.
A large group of old antiques gathered around, and the saint from the Jade Holy Land also appeared silently, wanting to take a closer look.
"Chichichi"
Lines of sharp sword energy emerged from Jiang Yue's palms, peeling off layers of stone skin. As time went by, he saw that the strange stone was being cut into smaller and smaller pieces, but there was still no abnormality. Emerging, many people's expressions have changed.
"Oh, it seems there is no chance."
"If there was a rare treasure, something different would have appeared long ago, but there has been no movement on this piece for a long time. It seems like it is just a confusing waste stone."
Every old monster shook his head and sighed, thinking that it was unlikely to be shipped.
Even Tantai Jing and the third prince frowned slightly and stood silently, looking at the beautiful girl in front of them with complicated eyes.
Outside the courtyard wall, Gu Qiu Shengzi of Xianliu Island shook his head, turned around and left silently, no longer paying attention.
The Saint of the Sapphire Saint Son is full of ethereal charm, and it is difficult to see clearly her true beauty, nor what kind of expression she looks like at this moment.
The Ninth Princess squatted down, supported her cheeks with both hands, blinked her big, bright black eyes, looked at the stone that had been broken down into the size of a ball, then looked up at Jiang Yue, with an innocent look on her face. Said: "Hurry up and continue cutting? Why don't you continue cutting?"
Jiang Yue stopped what she was doing, stood up, glanced at the people around her, and said as if she was hesitant to speak, "Is there anyone who wants to bet with me?"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone around him was stunned and some did not react.
"My friend, you want to bet against us? What are you betting on?" someone asked.
Jiang Yue pointed to the strange stone in front of her and said, "Of course I'm betting on whether the stone in front of me can cut anything."
"Now that things have happened, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is just a piece of waste stone with only appearance. Not to mention it is a rare treasure. It is probably difficult to even cut out a decent spiritual stone. Are you sure you still want to bet with us? ?”
"Can't you see it yet? She wants to try her best to get back some of her money, so as not to end up losing all her money."
"We're already in this situation, why are you still fighting? Aren't you afraid of losing even more miserably?"
"It's a broken jar. After all, the bet is whether it can be cut out. If you can cut out a piece of spiritual stone, it's considered a shipment, isn't it?"
These ancestor-level figures were whispering to each other.
"Fairy, I think it's better to forget it." Tantai Jing was worried that Jiang Yue wouldn't be able to cut out even one spiritual stone in the end, and would lose even more miserably by then, so he kindly tried to dissuade her.
Jiang Yue shook her head and said: "I have staked all my fortune on it. If I give it a try, I might be able to get back some of my money, so I won't lose so miserably."
She said it was very difficult, which made people believe that she had no choice and wanted to break the pot.
"The bet is at least one million medium-grade spiritual stones. I pay ten for every bet. The winning or losing depends on whether I can cut something out of this stone. Is anyone interested?" Jiang Yue shouted again.
"At least one million middle-grade spiritual stones? Pay ten in return for one deposit? Can you afford the compensation?"
"I have just cut out a fairy medicine rhizome, which will be auctioned soon. I can afford hundreds or even tens of millions of mid-grade spiritual stones. If I really lose, I guarantee that I will not lose you." One pound per pound." Jiang Yue said solemnly.
At this moment, many people present were moved. After all, judging from the current situation, their chances of winning were at least 90%.
Moreover, if you bet on one and lose ten, if one million medium-grade spiritual stones were doubled ten times, that would be ten million. Who could not be tempted?
"If you bet, just bet. With such a huge chance of winning, no fool would not bet!"
Someone was the first to stand up and express their opinion. They were seven young monks. They spent all their money to collect three million middle-grade spiritual stones. If they win, they will get 30 million middle-grade spiritual stones.
"Can we only use mid-grade spiritual stones for bets? Can we use low-grade spiritual stones?" someone shouted.
One million mid-grade spiritual stones is a small amount, and most people really can't afford it.
"The ratio of low-grade spiritual stones to mid-grade spiritual stones is one hundred to ten. I can't accept any more, and I can't afford to pay for the high-grade spiritual stones, so I only accept mid-grade spiritual stones." Jiang Yue was unhurried. He responded slowly, giving the reason why he only accepted middle-grade spiritual stones.
Hearing this, many monks took action and began to borrow middle-grade spiritual stones from everywhere.
"If you can't come up with one million medium-grade spiritual stones in a short time, you can borrow money from Liyue Temple. If you win thirty-seven, you can split the account." Tantai Jing stepped forward at this time.
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was stunned.
"What's the situation? Mr. Jing just unconditionally used 200,000 high-grade spiritual stones to support that woman, saying that he was just making a friend. Is this now because he is afraid that his friend will lose badly enough?"
No one expected that Tantai Jing would make trouble for his friend at this time, but after thinking about it, he was relieved.
He is the young master of the Liyue Temple, and he is an out-and-out businessman, and businessmen are more interested in profit than friendship, so it is quite normal for him to behave like this to add insult to injury.
But the most surprising thing is that even the third prince stepped forward to lend money.
Tantai Jing was right. After all, he was a businessman, but even the third prince came forward to take advantage of the opportunity. This was really unbelievable.
"Sure enough, in the face of absolute interests, it's all nonsense to talk about friends or not."
However, what these people didn't know was that all of this was just a trap set up by Jiang Yue. She asked Tantai Jing and the third prince to lend money in order to get more people into the scheme and she wanted to make a huge fortune.
With the two wealthy men Tantai Jing and the Third Prince stepping forward to lend money, many people who had scraped together spiritual stones quickly borrowed enough spiritual stones.
Because of the greed of people, almost everyone bet at least two to three million. Jiang Yue did a little calculation and found that the total amount was as high as 300 million!
If she loses, according to the odds of 1 to 10, she will have to pay 3 billion mid-grade spiritual stones!
This was a dizzying number. If Jiang Yue hadn't been absolutely sure, she wouldn't have dared to imagine where she would have to go to find three billion middle-grade spiritual stones and let her go to the Ancient Fairy Realm to mine. Even if it takes ten lifetimes to pay, right?
Jiang Yue wiped her cold sweat and said with a sad smile: "You guys really want to kill me..."
"You didn't listen to your advice and decided to gamble. Who's to blame?"
"Let's talk ugly first. If you lose later and can't afford to pay, don't blame us for being rude to you!"
"Hurry up and continue unraveling the stone, don't waste time."
Many people urged.
Jiang Yue sighed deeply, turned around, and began to continue unraveling the stone.
Streams of sword energy flowed out from between her palms, and as the stone skin fell off, everyone present could not help but hold their breath, not daring to release the breath.
Although there was a 90% chance of winning, the moment Jiang Yue started to drop the knife, everyone couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and their hands were sweating.
As time passed little by little, the strange stone that looked like a human head was cut down to the size of a fist, but there was still no abnormality.
At first, people were still worried, worried that Jiang Yue would actually cut something out. After all, even if she cut out a piece of spiritual stone the size of a sesame seed, she would still win.
But at this moment, people finally let go of their worries, with satisfied smiles on their faces.
Under normal circumstances, even if there is a spiritual stone inside, at this stage, there will at least be a flash of light, and it cannot be such a calm situation.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, is it still too late to place a bet?" Someone shouted anxiously.
"Yes, yes, can you still place a bet?"
The scene became excited again, and many people shouted loudly. There was no way, the chance of winning was too great now, and no one wanted to miss it.
Especially those who bet in advance, when they see that their chances of winning have improved again, they also have the idea of re-betting.
"Everyone, do you really want to kill me? Isn't this a bit too rude?" Jiang Yue said with a mournful face.
"Why don't you pay attention to it? She didn't say to stop betting just now, did you guys say so?!"
"Yes, yes, you didn't say to stop betting just now. There is no problem for us to continue betting now!"
Facing the shouts one after another around her, Jiang Yue sighed heavily and said, "We are all of the same kind. Is it really necessary to do something so extreme?"
