MTL - Stone Gambler (Orc)-Chapter 23 Kidnapping plan
"He's mine." Vincent just repeated this sentence as if he didn't hear Ellen's question.
"Okay, okay, I know he belongs to you." Ellen was very helpless, "But, this little thing is obviously not yet of age, his home is here, and you have things to do when you come out, can you still take it with you?" Can't he walk around together?"
Vincent gave Ellen a rare answer: "I don't need to take him around."
"Don't take him around... don't take him around, your mission... huh? You are not, are you not what I think?" Ellen shouted incoherently and then lowered her voice: "I said , you don't want to take Bai Zishi back to Yacheng directly, do you?"
"Hey, Vincent, are you willing to lose to Susa? Don't say that that **** is picking on you all the time, even if this mission is related to those things, you have to be careful. If you don't find anyone, go back like this." , or did you just give up the right to inherit those things?" Ellen really felt a little nervous, he really didn't know that Vincent, who was calm and self-controlled like a saint on weekdays, turned into a love interest at this critical moment.
"I've already found him." Vincent was not ignorant of Ellen's worries about himself. He looked at the little orc man in the middle of the field who was diligently asking for advice, and said seriously.
"Found it? You found one... wait..." Ellen's excited incoherent words suddenly stopped, and he also turned his head to look at the Little orc man who pointed to a piece of wool in the middle and said something, "The person you are talking about, shouldn't it be It will be..." His finger pointed to the Little orc man in the middle.
Vincent nodded calmly. Ellen lowered her head in an instant, and said weakly: "Vincent... You haven't forgotten that Bai Zishi is just a rookie who just entered the stone gambling industry. Isn't it obvious that you chose him as the candidate for this time to admit defeat?"
"It's hard to predict what the outcome will be." Vincent didn't feel that there was anything wrong with his choice of Bai Zishi, but seeing Ellen's half-dead look, he explained kindly, "Why does Zu want the person we are looking for?" It's just that people who have differences in betting on stones don't say they are people who have a good eye for betting on stones. Although Bai is a rookie who has just entered the door, his luck is very good. Maybe you don't know that yesterday he took a total of three pieces of wool , Two of them are bricks selected by Owen, and they are placed there purely for the layman who has experienced stone gambling. A piece of blue jadeite was extracted from the brick material. Another piece of wool material bought by others was extracted from the bean seed jadeite weighing about 20 kilograms. Although the water head is not very good, it is sunny green. Even more weird Yes, he bought a piece of cut waste with white cotton on the cut surface. The other half of the waste was sliced and there was no green, but he cut out a piece of glass. What I like is Bai this kind of luck."
Hearing what he said, Ellen's expression also became serious. He thought for a while, but still disagreed: "Vincent, although what you said is very reasonable, but things like luck are invisible and intangible. How can you guarantee that he can do this? The kind of luck will always follow him? I think it’s better to find a famous stone gambler. In fact, I have never understood why you don’t directly find someone in Yacheng, but you want to go to the edge of the tribe.”
"I've already decided." Vincent's expression was not shaken by Ellen's words at all. Why not look for it in Yacheng? Vincent lowered his eyes. He always remembered what Zu Ama said to him before he left—going for a walk in a far place, maybe there will be greater gains.
Bai Zishi soaked in the Jieshi field for a whole day, and the Asian orcs suspected that he was a resident of Yacheng when they discovered that he was not using black-patterned gloves. Going to explain, anyway, if everyone thinks so, it's pretty good for him. At least, everyone has a better answer to his enviable good luck yesterday -- he came from Dream City.
Vincent has been observing Bai Zishi. When he is concentrating on one thing, he will always show some expression unconsciously on his face, just like the piece of wool that Bai is touching now. I heard from them that the performance is very good. The only pity is that there is a finger-wide crack on the surface, and a faint green can be vaguely seen from the crack. The buyer's point of view is that although there are cracks, there should be no cracks. Extending along the line, it did not cause major damage to the jade on the facade. A group of sub-orcs came up to observe with intensifiers, and their opinions were similar. Bai also went to see it. Although he smiled and said that he didn't understand well and couldn't say it well, there was a look of pity in his eyes.
He looks like this, probably because he is not optimistic about wool. Vincent guessed.
Bai Zishi watched the sub-orc man he had just met happily wipe the stone with the wheel against the crack, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He looks so happy now, but after a while, this happiness will disappear without a trace. The emerald in this piece of wool is exactly the same as the emerald he felt in Bixi's house, lifeless, the crack seems to have not extended in, in fact, the entire emerald has been destroyed, the energy inside is probably Almost all lost.
Bai Zishi was silent for a while, then withdrew from the crowd. Vincent called him, and Bai Zishi regained his senses and ran over to him, handed him a glass of Laneige water, Bai Zishi thanked him, took it, and drank it all in one go.
Vincent patted him on the shoulder: "Are you tired?"
"Somewhat."
"This way." Vincent took Bai Zishi to the open-air service shop on the edge of the quarry, and then ordered a glass of smoothie for Bai Zishi. This cold drink, which is similar to ice cream on earth, has a crunchy taste The taste is refreshing, and Bai Zishi fell in love with it after taking a bite. The fly in the ointment is that this spoon is really big! !
Vincent looked at the little orc man in front of him, holding a small spoon, digging up white ice products and putting them into his mouth. When he was eating happily, his eyes would half-close unconsciously, his cute appearance always It made him want to touch his head, pinch his face, even hold him in his arms and give him a good kiss.
he's mine. Vincent told himself from the bottom of his heart that he never doubted that he could get the little thing in front of him, but it was only seven years, and he could afford to wait. But the most urgent task is to take the white belt away.
After thinking about it, Vincent suddenly said calmly: "I'm leaving."
Walk? ! Bai Zishi was taken aback, and looked up at Vincent. The image of the milky white ice product remaining on the corner of his mouth made Bai Zishi look dumbfounded. He pursed his lips and asked, "Where are you going?"
"Go back to Yacheng." Vincent stretched out his hand, and gently brushed Bai Zishi's lips with his thumb. The soft feeling as if blowing over his skin made Vincent lose his mind for a moment, looking at the opposite The little thing's eyes wandered uncomfortably for a moment, and he said calmly, "Here, it's touched."
Bai Zishi coughed a few times uncomfortably, then rubbed his arm against his mouth fiercely, despising the nasty thoughts he had raised in his heart, saying that you are just a thirteen-year-old kid here, and you always think that others Is taking advantage of you! He selectively ignored the unnatural tremor in his heart at the moment when the opponent's rough thumb touched it.
Bai Zishi collected himself and asked, "When are we leaving?"
"Five days later."
"So fast?!" Bai Zishi's blurted words made Vincent feel happy, and his little thing was reluctant to let him go. Bai Zishi also regretted his outspokenness, but asking this way made him look more Vincent. To be honest, Bai Zishi also felt that his reaction was a bit excessive. The two have only known each other for a day, but he feels that the two have known each other for a long time, and it is very natural and comfortable to get along with each other. Hearing that the other party is leaving, a feeling of reluctance naturally arises, which is very strange.
Maybe it's because both of them are double blacks that are rare here? Bai Zishi thought of a possibility.
"There are some things at home." Vincent explained lightly.
Everyone has their own things to do, Bai Zishi quickly corrected his mentality, he stirred the melted ice with a spoon and said with a smile: "I just found out that your family lives in Yacheng, where is What's it like?"
Vincent thought for a while: "Compared to Maca City, Yacheng is very... civilized and luxurious"
Luxury is easy to understand, but civilization? What kind of metaphor is this? Bai Zishi gave Vincent a strange look.
Vincent didn't explain either: "You'll know it when you see it with your own eyes."
Bai Zishi shook his head: "Forget it, the transportation here is inconvenient, and I don't know when I can go to Yacheng to have a look."
A light flashed in Vincent's eyes. He lowered his head and took a sip of ice water, and asked, "Bai, do you want to go to school in Yacheng?"
go to school? Bai Zishi was taken aback, the word was far away from him, but now that he thought about it, it seemed that he really should go to school. His understanding of this continent was not much different from that of a child who just started to understand.
But, to Yacheng?
