Longevity: Start with your own wine-making technique
Chapter 13 The Disappointed People
"My friend, do you plan to cut the stone on the spot, or take it away directly? I can do it for you for free." Qian Duoduo walked to Long Xuan and said.
"Let's cut the stone on the spot. I don't have that much storage space." Long Xuan touched the huge stone king and said casually.
Hearing this, everyone in the audience suddenly became excited, their eyes lit up, and they all gathered around immediately.
Watching others cut stones is their greatest pleasure, especially the stone king that is rare in the world, which makes everyone excited and can't wait to run over to watch the fun.
Those who are selecting stones also put down the fossils in their hands and ran over excitedly. In a blink of an eye, a large group of people gathered here.
Seeing that Long Xuan planned to cut the stone king here, Qian Duoduo showed joy on his face. Cutting the stone here can not only satisfy his curiosity, but also gather popularity and stimulate consumption. If a good bug comes out, he can get it as soon as possible, killing two birds with one stone.
He took out a big red axe from his storage bag, turned around and looked at Long Xuan with a smile, saying: "This spiritual axe is a top-grade spiritual weapon, it can cut iron like mud, and it can cut through any thick fossil. Where do you plan to cut first?"
After Long Xuan looked at the top-grade spiritual weapon with a curious look, he drew a line on the fossil with a pen, almost dividing it in half at the center of the fossil.
He can see the progress of the spiritual insect in the fossil, and by looking at where the numbers appear, he can basically judge where the spiritual insect is.
From the height and width of the numbers, the size of the spiritual insect in the stone can also be roughly judged.
And this cut can just pass by the spiritual insect and perfectly avoid its position.
It was also what he saw and heard in the jade gambling field in his previous life that gave him inspiration. In the gambling field, if you don’t find jade after cutting a few times, you can sell the remaining materials.
Of course, due to the failure of the first few cuts, the value of the remaining materials will be greatly reduced, but some people are still willing to trade spiritual stones with the intention of picking up leaks at a low price.
Long Xuan's plan was simple. He could use the golden finger to determine the location of the spirit insects, so he could pretend that the first few cuts failed and then sell the remaining materials.
He would cut the location of the spirit insects into fist-sized pieces, and the possibility of such small remaining materials having insects was infinitely close to zero. Naturally, no one would trade when the price was high, and everyone would focus on the large remaining materials.
At that time, he could take away the fist-sized remaining materials and conceal the truth.
At this time, Long Xuan pretended to be very nervous and rubbed his hands, pointing to the line and said, "Let's cut from this line first!"
Qian Duoduo's spirit axe flew up from his hand and chopped down gently from top to bottom. It didn't seem very powerful, but the fossil was like tofu, and a gap was split without any resistance.
In order to avoid hurting the spirit insects inside, the spirit axe did not split the fossil at once, but carefully peeled it layer by layer, which was a bit time-consuming.
At this time, everyone stared with wide eyes, held their breath, and stared at the cracks in the stone without blinking.
When the fossil was split into two, a crowd of people immediately gathered around. Seeing that the cut surface was smooth and flat, everyone was disappointed that there was no worm.
Long Xuan also showed a very disappointed expression, and his expression was as sad as he could be.
Qian Duoduo patted his shoulder and comforted him: "Don't be discouraged. It's normal that such a large fossil is not cut in the right place. The good stuff must be somewhere else."
Hearing this, Long Xuan's eyes immediately became bright, and he picked up the pen again and split the two fossils in the middle.
This cut will split the fossil into four parts, and the line cleverly avoids the location of the spiritual insect and passes by the spiritual insect perfectly.
"Sorry for the trouble, cut along this line." Long Xuan said firmly.
"Okay!" Qian Duoduo controlled his spiritual axe again and repeated the previous steps, one cut after another, and split the two fossils into two again under the nervous eyes of everyone.
As expected, the cut was smooth and there was no worm.
"No worms found again?"
The crowd exclaimed in a bit of a commotion. Cutting a stone often depends on the first few cuts. If there are no worms after cutting a few cuts horizontally and vertically in the center, then the hope will be very slim.
A fossil of such a large size and good appearance actually has no worms. This made everyone a little unbelievable and greatly exceeded everyone's expectations.
Many people showed a look of gloating. Some people just can't stand seeing others do well.
"How is it possible?"
Long Xuan showed a stunned expression, rushed over, wiped the cut again and again, and looked extremely anxious.
"Here! Here! Here! Keep cutting for me!"
Long Xuan frantically pointed out several positions again. At this time, he was like a gambler who had lost his mind.
Over the years, Qian Duoduo has seen many gamblers with such expressions, and he is used to it.
He shook his head helplessly, controlled the spirit axe, and continued to cut the stone according to the position marked by Long Xuan.
As expected, he perfectly avoided the position where the spirit worm was. Long Xuan lost his mind and drew a line again to continue cutting the stone.
I don't know how much time has passed. When it gradually darkened, the huge stone king had been cut into fifty pieces without anyone noticing. After fifty pieces were cut, there was still no trace of the spirit insect.
Everyone was bored and disappointed. The excitement of cutting the stone at the beginning was completely gone. Many people shook their heads and left.
In the eyes of everyone, after so many cuts without a worm, it was basically hopeless. They all looked at this poor guy with sympathy.
Long Xuan sat on the ground, as if he had lost his soul, his eyes were dull, and he muttered to himself: "How is this possible? How can such a big stone not have worms? This is unfair."
Qian Duoduo also looked confused, puzzled, this shouldn't be? It must have worms, how could there be no worms? It's really a ghost.
"Young man, accept your fate, this is gambling on stones. There is no stone that will have worms 100% in the gambling on stones world, otherwise the Qian's Chamber of Commerce would have cut this stone king by itself, why would it keep it until now? Isn't it to sell it to others to transfer the risk?" An old man in the crowd consoled.
However, his consolation was of no use, Long Xuan still looked lost, with desperate eyes, as if the sky was about to fall.
That acting skill can win an Oscar statuette.
"No! No! I haven't lost yet!"
Long Xuan suddenly stood up frantically and shouted to the people around him: "There must be a bug in this stone king, but I happened to avoid the location of the spirit bug. It's just my bad luck."
"The spirit bug must be in one of these fifty stones. Now I plan to give this good opportunity to you. I intend to sell fifty fossils. Who can buy the fossil with the spirit bug depends on your luck."
Hearing this, everyone present smiled and shook their heads. This really took themselves for fools. Who would buy the stone that was basically determined to fail in the bet? Whoever buys it is a fool.
However, everyone present was stunned by Long Xuan's next words.
