Chapter 32 Chapter 32. Anger of The Crowd
Letâs look at the bones that can cut out high-level jade first. I guessed that the clairvoyant would use its ability reasonably.
His target range would be significantly reduced if he focused on an expert who could cut out jade.
âLuo Li? What are you mumbling about?â Catherine suddenly patted my shoulder, bringing me back to reality.
It was only then that I noticed that we had already entered the street of stone gambling. There were many people around us.
âAh, Iâm fine.â I waved my hand. âItâs my first time here, so Iâm dazed.
Oh, right. I just remembered that this is your first time in stone gambling.
As she spoke, Catherine was about to start explaining to me about stone gambling.
I listened attentively as well. After all, it would be helpful to find people with x-ray vision if I could understand some basic knowledge.
Stone gambling is to pick out the raw materials with jade. Of course, not every stone has the chance to have jade.
We canât see the internal structure of the jade with our eyes, so itâs hazardous to gamble on stones.
âAs the saying goes, even the gods canât judge an inch of jade. This is also the charm of stone gambling.
Some people become rich, and some go bankrupt because of stone gambling. So, buy cheap materials and play with them if you want raw materials.
âItâll be good if a bean seed can be found.â
Catherine analyzed the risks of stone gambling for me. I nodded. âYes, thank you, senior. I understand.â
After that, Catherine showed me all kinds of pictures of jadeite. After looking at them, I had a general understanding of stone gambling.
The next thing to do was to find a Big Shot who could cut out jade instantly!
âLetâs go to the place where the stones are cut.â I suggested, âWeâre not buying it. Itâll be more interesting to go to the stone-cutting place.â
Catherine nodded in agreement. âThatâs true. Maybe weâll find a rare jade today.
âLetâs go!â
â¦
We went straight to where the stones were cut but found that the crowd had already
surrounded the place.
Three circles inside and three circles outside.
âWhy are there so many people?â Catherine
was a little puzzled. Even when itâs more
lively than now, there wouldnât be so many people watching the stone cutting.
Pa!
The crisp sound of a palm hitting flesh suddenly came from the crowd.
I immediately understood. So this group didnât come to see the stone cutting but to
watch the fun.
âLetâs go in and take a look,â I said.
Catherine also wanted to know what had
happened inside. Thus, we squeezed through
the crowd and came to the front.
A man and a woman were standing in the middle of the crowd.
âYouâre just wasting air by living?
Iâm raising you, but you canât even do a small
thing well, trash! Youâre useless!
If you want me to pay today, I wonât let you have an easy time!
Trash, I think youâre doing this on purpose! Iâll teach you a lesson when we get home!â

â¦
The man had a fat head and big ears and
pointed at the cowering girl. His words were vulgar and unbearable to the ears.
The lady looked very weak. There was a clear handprint on her pale face and tears at the
corners of her eyes.
I got furious.
But it was only anger.
From their conversation, I guessed that they might be relatives.
These are their family matters. As a stranger,
I didnât know what to think. I can only sympathize with her, but I donât want to get involved in the muddy water.
But Catherine didnât think so. âI canât bear to see him bully a little girl!â Catherine growled, âToday, Iâm going to punish the evil and promote the good!â
Catherine was furious. Seeing that she was about to use her ability to charge forward, I knew I couldnât just stand by and do nothing.
âWhere did this pig come from, making a ruckus here?â
Stopping Catherine, I took the lead and took a step forward.
âSo noisy and an eyesore.â
âYou ⦠Quickly get out of my sight.â
Catherine knew my abilities well. Seeing that
I had appeared, she wasnât prepared to risk exposing her identity. Instead, she watched the show with peace of mind.
âWho are you? You dare to scold me?â The
chubby man realized my existence and heard what I said just now. He was immediately annoyed. âSmall-bodied trash, why are you being so
nosy? Donât tell me you have an affair with this little girl. Hahaha!â The man started to insult me and began to curse at me. His spittle also flew in the air.
I frowned and took half a step back in disgust.
However, the man misunderstood my retreating action and thought I was beginning to be afraid, making him even more arrogant.
âIf youâre a coward, donât play the hero. Go home and drink your milk!
If you dare to meddle in my business again, Iâll also beat you up!
Little trash, with your body, I can beat you to
your knees, and you will beg for mercy with
two slaps.â

He started to vent his anger on me. Of course, I couldnât hold back. I waited until
he was tired of scolding before I started to
speak. âYour tone is too stinky; I stepped back.â I
shook my head. âBrother, itâs time to brush your teeth.
No, it doesnât matter if you brush your teeth or not. After all, your heart is dirty, so your mouth is naturally smelly. You canât brush it clean at all.â
My nonchalant words thoroughly angered the
man.
âTrash, who allowed you to scold me?â The man rolled up his sleeves and walked up
angrily. âIf I donât teach you a lesson today, you wonât know your place!â After he finished speaking, he wanted to grab my collar.
The surrounding people also started sighing. Some of them began to worry about my fate.
I picked up my phone and placed it by my ear
in the nick of time.
âHello, is this Yaoyao Ling? Yes, I want to make a report. Thereâs a strange man at the stone-gambling street on the East Side. He wants to attack me.
Iâm terrified now, and I suspect he wants to kill me.â
I deliberately spoke fast.
The man was stunned when he heard me
talking to the righteous Yaoyao.
Iâm sure he didnât expect that I would call the
police. âYou, youâre shameless! Coward, do you only
know how to shake people?â He didnât attack me, but he still couldnât help but curse. As the distance between us got closer, I could only step back in disgust. He was pretty good at spitting. When I did this for the second time, the man
noticed my disdain and realized I wasnât
afraid but was disgusted with him.
After thinking it through, his expression became interesting. Just as he was in a daze, I narrowed my eyes.
âHow can you call it shaking people? Iâm
using my means to protect myself and the innocent girl.
Idiot, do
you know that your actions are against the rules?â
I gradually became severe, and my voice became cold.
âIt is! I canât stand it anymore. A man is fighting with a little girl.â
âThis kind of person can only go all out in
front of his family, but heâs a yes-man in front of outsiders.â
âWhat a joke; I support this righteous young man!â âStupid pig, if you make another move, weâll punish you together!â
âTwo fists canât fight with four hands. No
matter how powerful you are, we can still suppress you!â
âThatâs right,â

Around them, a heated discussion broke out. Then, the manâs expression changed.
He had aroused the anger of the crowd.
