Rebellious Contract Beast
Chapter 287 A living severed finger
As more and more money was won in his hand, Tsurumi Chuyun became more and more excited and stayed at the gambling table. The money in his hand was falling again and again, turning over and over again.
However, she was not completely irrational. After winning more than one hundred taels of silver, she no longer bet almost all the money she won every time like before. Like most people, she also felt that something was wrong. I only bet one tael of silver, and only when I feel good will I choose to bet more.
Of course, her luck is not always good enough to bet on the right numbers. She occasionally loses, but not much, which is easy to accept.
In this way, the silver she won slowly came to an astonishing six hundred taels.
This amount of money is what ordinary people can earn in half a lifetime. She earned it in just a few hours. Such good luck naturally attracted the attention of the gamblers around her, and people began to follow her to place bets.
But this time, she bet one hundred taels of silver on the small print, and the gamblers around her quickly followed suit.
However, as the dealer opened the dice and saw the numbers of the three dice inside, the gamblers couldn't help but fell silent.
Wow!
"It's not!"
"Hey~ little girl, you made the wrong bet this time, not small, but big!"
"How can someone win all the time? It's normal to lose a few times."
"Eh? How much did you win?"
"Following this girl, the money in my hand has doubled several times!"
"Me too!"
"Girl, do you bet on the big one or the small one this time?"
"Yes, yes, we are still following you! Your luck is simply unbeatable."
The gamblers all looked at Tsurumi Chuyun, and other gamblers at the gambling table also came over to join in the fun. After all, he was a bastard who had no money to make.
But Hejian Chuyun said nothing and watched silently as the dealer took away the one hundred taels of silver he had bet on the small print.
After losing one hundred taels of silver, she now still has five hundred and five taels of silver she won.
As for whether to bet big or small next time, she didn't know which side to bet, but this time she seemed to have a feeling. After thinking about it, she directly piled all five hundred taels of silver into the small characters.
When everyone saw this, they followed him one after another!
"It's a little one! It's still a little one! Hurry up!"
"Hurry up! She's kidnapped!"
"You bet so much, you must be small! I'll bet too!"
"And I!"
"Hurry up!"
"Who lends me five taels of silver? I will pay it back ten times!"
"..."
After a while, another mountain of silver appeared on the gambling table, including a few conspicuous gold coins.
Tsurumi Chuyun couldn't help but squeeze her small fists. She believed in her intuition. This time it was definitely small.
Shen Yi in the conscious space has long been numb. Of course, he wants to persuade Tsurumi Chuyun to give up when things get better, but the fact is better than everything. Her luck is really enviable. After winning so much, what can he say? It's all useless to say anything.
He just watched quietly, but when he saw that the old witch had pledged almost all the money she had won, he still trembled in his heart.
It's getting more and more frivolous.
But if the bet is right this time, the five hundred taels of silver will be directly converted into a thousand taels.
Like the gamblers around him, Shen Yi also stared at the dice Gu.
After everyone finished placing their bets, the dealer rang the bell, and the sound of jingling bells sounded. Seeing his hand reaching for the dice Gu on the table, everyone's hearts were lifted and they held their breath.
"Small!"
"Small!"
"Small!"
"..." The gamblers shouted involuntarily, as if just shouting "small", the dice in the dice will change the points to "small" according to their wishes.
Especially for those gamblers who have invested all their wealth or even borrowed money to gamble, for them this second seems to have slowed down countless times, and the dealer's hand is touching the dice Gu bit by bit.
Finally, the dice voodoo was opened, and the number of dice inside immediately made everyone's eyes darken.
"Do not!!"
"This...this is impossible!"
"It's not small! It's still big!"
"My money!"
"Hey, you said before that the money I borrowed from you will be repaid tenfold! You can't rely on me!"
"How can this... be still big?"
Under the dice Gu, the numbers of the three dice were five, five, and six respectively. This was the undisputed high number. The gamblers around the gambling table burst into mourning, and several fainted and fell to the ground in the blink of an eye.
Tsurumi Chuyun's face suddenly turned gloomy.
How could it be big?
Her intuition clearly told her that she was small.
She was a little suspicious that the dealer had done something, and she was about to draw her sword and kill the opponent, but fortunately she calmed down and did not do such a stupid thing.
Shen Yi in the conscious space was stunned for several seconds, and then he said: "Oh."
The main banker calmly took the dice back and put them into the dice and shook them quickly. After a while, the dice was slapped on the table. He said in a loud voice: "Bet big, bet small, start placing bets." The voice could not be heard. There was no emotion, as if what he was seeing had nothing to do with him, but none of the gamblers around him placed a bet, but all looked at Tsurumi Hatsuun.
Some people wanted to blame her for the recent win or loss. After all, they lost so much by following her, but Tsurumi Chuyun ignored them and turned around and left the gambling table.
Unconsciously, she had been playing for nearly an hour. She had lost count of how many games she had played. She lost all the five hundred taels of silver she had finally won in just one game. As a result, her current state was very poor and she could not play at all. give up.
Shen Yize mocked in the conscious space: "Play, you continue to play, now you are back to before liberation, right?"
"Are you happy that I lost?"
"Happy? Would I be happy myself? But you won! That's five hundred taels of silver!"
"Well...the dealer has cheated! Otherwise, I wouldn't have lost."
"Hey, why didn't you say that the banker was cheating just now?"
"..."
She stopped talking and walked towards the ghost market area glumly.
After several rounds of betting, although she lost five hundred taels of silver at once, it seemed that she was not a loss at all. At least she still had five taels of silver left, which she had earned in vain.
At this time, Tsurumi Chuyun could only comfort himself in this way.
But after all, it was five hundred taels of silver. No matter how much she comforted herself after losing it all at once, she still couldn't be happy.
If you lose, just lose. Shaking her head, she threw away the distracting thoughts in her heart. She came to the ghost market for a purpose.
Thinking about it, she entered the market and wandered around looking for stalls selling alchemy materials. However, her luck seemed to have run out in her previous gambling. After walking around, she was dazzled by the various items in the ghost market, and she couldn't tell whether they were real or fake. However, she could not find a shop selling alchemy materials.
After resting in a corner for a while, she quickly got up and looked around the places she had never been to in the ghost market. By some strange coincidence, she went upstairs and came to the door at the end. She did not go in, but the sound inside told her Somewhat curious.
"The 41st guest offered seven thousand taels of silver, is there anything higher?"
"Nine thousand taels!"
"Ten thousand taels!"
"The guest in the sixth seat offered ten thousand taels of silver, is there anything higher?"
"Twenty thousand taels!"
"Twenty-two thousand taels!"
"Twenty-five thousand taels!"
"Three thousand taels...gold!"
Wow!
"The guest in Tianzihao box bids three thousand taels of gold!"
"What is the background of the person in the Tianzi box? He actually has so much money."
"Yeah, I've taken three of them before."
"..."
Judging from the sounds coming from inside, there will only be an auction behind the door. What Zhuo Mingjin said is true. The ghost market auction is really not accessible to ordinary people. Tens of thousands of taels of silver can easily be spent. After listening to this for a while, The price shouted out has reached the point where gold is used as the unit.
Look at the old witch, the few thousand taels of silver she has on her are compared to other things. She is extremely poor.
However, Shen Yi was a little curious. What exactly was being auctioned inside was worth as much as three thousand taels of gold, and it was still rising.
After listening for a while at the door, the person in the Tianzihao box inside finally bought the auction item for five thousand taels of gold, but they didn't mention what it was after it was over.
Shen Yi was a little disappointed, but he didn't care too much. He said to Tsurumi Chuyun: "Old witch, if you leave, you can't afford the things inside."
Tsurumi Chuyun nodded when he heard the words, turned around and walked towards the bottom of the stairs. She still had this self-knowledge. She was not qualified to touch the linings in the ghost market now, but that was only for her now. If she walks on the path of becoming an alchemist, she is destined to not be short of money in her future life.
But that was all in the future. Now she looked at the stalls arranged neatly below, like pieces on a chessboard, and felt disappointed in her heart.
No one was buying alchemy materials at the ghost market in Jinwu County, so now she could only go to Beiting City to find a solution.
"Let's go, there's no one here to sell what you want."
"Ah."
"Eh? When are you going to leave?"
"Leave early tomorrow morning." Tsurumi Chuyun walked down the stairs and said while nodding his chin. Just when she was about to walk out of the ghost market area, she seemed to see something and stopped.
"Miscellaneous?"
"What that person is selling..."
At first, Shen Yi thought that the old witch saw someone selling alchemy materials, but when he turned his attention to her perspective, he found that it was not the case. The place she was looking at was one of the stalls in the row of stalls on the left. The stall owner seemed to He was an old man with over fifty years of training. Although his face was covered with a mask and his appearance could not be seen clearly, most of his hair was gray, mixed with some black hair.
This man's hair was of poor quality, and his dry hair was tangled together. If you didn't look carefully, it looked like a ball of wool that had been kneaded together randomly.
The clothes he was wearing were very ordinary, but the dye on them had been washed away, and there were threads in some places. It was obvious that this man was not rich, and the clothes he wore were his best.
Tsurumi Chuyun walked over. There were only three items for sale in his stall. The first item was a stone, black and invisible to the naked eye.
The second item is a dried finger. It looks like a human finger, but upon closer inspection it is not. Even though the finger has been dried, it is still much thicker than a human finger. The finger is slightly curved and the cuticle on the nail is very thick. , and it looks a bit like an eagle claw that is several times thicker.
And this third item is the most important thing. It is a bracelet, also black, with exquisite patterns carved on the edge, which looks very noble.
At first glance, Shen Yi thought this bracelet was just an ordinary work of art, but after a closer look, he became excited. There was clearly a black gemstone embedded in the center of the bracelet. This bracelet could clearly be used for A space artifact that stores items.
"Old witch! Old witch! Buy it! Buy it quickly! I'm worried that I have no place to find this thing!"
This bracelet has many more space stones than the previous space earrings. It is not difficult to guess that the space inside is definitely very large.
"I know, I know, I'll buy it for you."
Hejian Chuyun said to Shen Yi, then squatted down and picked up the stone to examine it. When he asked the stall owner what the stone was, the other person said rudely: "If you can't afford it, just buy it." Don’t touch!”
She was stunned and silent for a while, then she asked quietly: "Please tell me what this is."
The stall owner's tone was still rude, but he said: "This is Zhiyang Xuanjin."
"Zhiyang Xuanjin? What is it?" This was asked by Shen Yi. He had never heard of this thing.
Of course the stall owner couldn't hear him, so it was Tsurumi Hatsuun who explained to him.
"Zhiyang Xuanjin is an extremely rare treasure of heaven and earth."
"How rare is it?"
"How can I tell you this? Anyway, Zhiyang Xuanjin can be used to refine spiritual weapons."
Tsurumi Chuyun took the stone and weighed it in her hands. It was also the first time for her to see Zhiyang Xuanjin. She had seen it in books before, so naturally she couldn't tell whether it was true or false.
There was some doubt in her eyes.
Zhiyang Xuanjin is a spiritual stone that has been deposited over a long period of time. Its interior contains extremely rich spiritual energy. The black color outside is its protective layer. This protective layer can not only lock the spiritual energy inside, but also cut off all senses. If the protective layer is destroyed by the prying eyes of spiritual consciousness, the spiritual energy in it will drain away quickly. Because of this, few people can easily judge the authenticity of Zhiyang Xuanjin from its appearance.
If it is genuine Zhiyang Xuanjin, its value is at least 60,000 taels of silver.
Most people would not just sell it casually. If they wanted to sell it, they would choose an auction to maximize the value.
And when the stall owner sells it at the most ordinary stall in the ghost market, it is difficult not to make people suspicious.
However, looking at the clothes on his body, if it is really Zhiyang Xuanjin, it seems reasonable not to sell it at an auction.
Because it is not free to enter the auction, you have to pay money, which is not much, fifty taels of silver, but how can ordinary people afford fifty taels of silver?
Shaking his head, Hejian Chuyun asked symbolically: "How much do you sell this Zhiyang Xuanjin for?"
"Fifty thousand taels."
"..." Tsurumi Chuyun silently put the stone down, pointed at the finger in the middle and asked, "What is this?"
"I don't know. My father and I talked about this thing, saying that it came from some kind of evil thing."
"Oh." He Jianchuyun nodded and reached out to touch the finger. But it was better not to touch it. When he touched it, the finger actually moved.
She was startled and looked up at the stall owner.
"Alive...alive?"
"..."
