Hearing this, Qin Liang's hands trembled even more violently.
Feng Yuqin was speechless. "Can you do it or not?"
Little Ling'er and Chu Xiaomian also cast a speechless look at Qin Liang.
However, they were obedient kids.
They did exactly as Feng Yuqin told them to. They sat obediently by the side, eating fruits and watching the show, keeping silent and enjoying the spectacle.
"Master Qin, no matter how much you tremble, if there really are spirit stones inside and they get damaged, will you take the responsibility?" The young man had now regained his composure.
Not to mention anything else, just based on the small piece of spirit stone that had been exposed, he wouldn't count today as a loss.
Even if he couldn't save his sister, delaying the situation for a while would give him more time to figure out a solution.
So, at this moment, he was more worried about Qin Liang's trembling hands than anyone else present.
Being admonished like this, Qin Liang took a deep breath, trying hard to calm himself down. Then, he began to follow Feng Yuqin's instructions and continued to cut the gambling stone.
After two cuts, the rich aura of the spirit stones emanated from the stone.
This gambling stone was as big as two adult heads.
Actually, there was still a high chance of finding something even after cutting one - third of it.
But Qin Liang... for almost all these years, he would sense the aura after cutting one - third of the stone.
If he didn't detect the aura of any treasure, he wouldn't continue cutting.
Today... Qin Liang felt as if he had kicked a steel plate.
With a trembling hand, he made another cut.
This cut instantly exposed most of the spirit stone inside.
It was about the size of a baby's fist.
"My goodness, such a big spirit stone?"
"It looks half as big again as the ones we usually cut out."
"Is Shen Jiang going to strike it rich today?"
The young man, Shen Jiang, stared wide - eyed at the spirit stone in the gambling stone.
At this moment, Qin Liang's hands were trembling so much that he could hardly hold the knife.
Feng Yuqin gave him a casual glance. "Continue. Everyone's waiting."
Qin Liang took a deep breath and looked at Feng Yuqin.
Qin Liang despised beautiful women. He thought that beautiful women were just there to serve men.
They were almost all brainless vases. So, in Qin Liang's mind, Feng Yuqin was just trying to gain attention in the gambling - stone workshop.
However, he never expected that this beautiful woman, whom he had always looked down upon, would make him stumble today.
This incident also made Qin Liang never dare to underestimate women again in his future life.
His arrogance... was also cured.
Of course, that was all in the future.
After hearing Feng Yuqin's words, Qin Liang continued to cut.
As he got further into it, he became more cautious.
Seeing that he finally started to cut the gambling stone seriously, Feng Yuqin stopped giving instructions.
Only then did these people realize something.
"So, it was this woman who was instructing Master Qin to cut the gambling stone?"
"Based on the current situation, it seems so."
"How does she know?"
"Yes, how did she know how to cut and that there were spirit stones inside?"
"I'm also quite curious. Even Master Qin, with decades of experience, didn't know. How could she?"
"Don't you think about the fact that she bought a whole lot of gambling stones earlier?" This person repeated "a whole lot" to remind everyone.
Finally, everyone realized.
"Good heavens. If this woman knows how to gamble on stones, then the gambling stones she bought couldn't have been random..."
"So many gambling stones... How many treasures could be inside?"
"I suddenly want to see what treasures will come out of her gambling stones..."
"I do too."
"But her bet just now seemed to be... gambling - stone tools?"
"Even for gambling - stone tools, the gambling - stone workshop has rules. If you buy more than ten gambling stones, you have to open at least three in the workshop. After all, the workshop also needs to make money."
"So, we still have a chance to see at least three of her gambling stones?"
"Right. So, we can look forward to it..."
While they were talking, Qin Liang had mined out another part.
The whole spirit stone was now exposed.
The spirit crystals usually used were about the size of a finger.
But this spirit stone was as big as a baby's fist.
For cultivators, this was extremely attractive.
The young man, Shen Jiang, was so excited that his whole body started to tremble. He murmured, "My sister will be saved for a while..."
Such a big spirit stone could definitely suppress his sister's illness for some time.
Qin Liang picked up the spirit stone. His expression... he didn't know how to react to this spirit stone.
Feng Yuqin gave Qin Liang a casual look and said, "Continue..."
"What?" Everyone was confused.
Qin Liang also looked at Feng Yuqin in confusion. "Continue what?"
"Continue cutting..." Feng Yuqin's words made Qin Liang stunned.
"Con... continue?" Qin Liang looked down at the gambling stone and asked uncertainly, "Still cut?"
Feng Yuqin frowned. "Wasn't the lesson just now enough?"
Qin Liang's face instantly turned ugly.
However, he had a good point.
Once he realized his mistake, he would correct it.
So, hearing Feng Yuqin's words, he picked up the tools and continued to cut the gambling stone.
The others also realized.
"So... does she mean there's still something in this gambling stone?"
"It's only a bit bigger than an adult's fist. Can there really be something inside?"
"Probably not?" The tone was a bit uncertain.
After all, Feng Yuqin's series of actions had left them not knowing how to react.
The incident about Feng Yuqin in the gambling - stone workshop had spread among the onlookers.
Many people who heard there was something exciting to watch rushed over.
"Look, there's color showing up..." Someone saw a bit of red emerging from the gambling stone.
"Red... red? What could it be?"
"If there's color, it should be crimson or orange. Why is it red?"
"Isn't it said that another type of cultivation spirit stone has color?"
"Yes, isn't it red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet? But we've only seen crimson and orange. Could there really be red inside?"
"Maybe it's some other treasure, some material for refining tools."
Array stones were usually gray or white.
There were no other colors.
Only some materials for refining tools had colors.
At this moment, Qin Liang didn't know how to describe his feelings.
Seeing this situation, Cai Heng secretly contacted the person - in - charge of the gambling - stone workshop with his communication jade.
After all, if it was red...
Cai Heng didn't think further. Instead, he fixed his gaze on the gambling stone.
"Steady your hand," Feng Yuqin saw that Qin Liang's hands were trembling even more violently and casually added.
"Hahaha... I can hardly hold it in. This guy is so funny," Xiao Ying and the others had been watching from the space. Now, seeing these people, they couldn't help bursting into laughter.
