Woke up and found myself a legend

However, the Magic Time Desert is extremely vast, with an area the size of two domains. Of course, they never encountered a second three-legged Golden Crow.

As they headed west, Tao Yu and Fan Hongxi were blocked by a large clear lake, which is extremely rare in the desert.

That big lake lies quietly in the desert, boundless, without a trace of waves on the surface of the lake, reflecting the large expanse of blue sky and the hot and dazzling golden sun in the golden desert.

Tao Yu stood by the lake and looked at the surface of the lake, and saw that the lake was covered with golden sand that was getting wet gradually, and the transparent lake water was floating quietly among the sand, with only a few invisible ripples on the edge.

He touched the lake water with his hand, felt the faint surging power inside, and said thoughtfully: "There is something wrong with this lake, I'm afraid we can't just fly over it."

Fan Hongxi looked up at the faint stone houses in the distance, and said with a smile, "Let's go over there and have a look."

There is a small market town in the desert by the lake, some small camel caravans and merchants stop here, so although the market town here is desolate, there are also some people in white cloaks who set up stalls to sell some food and sundries .As soon as Tao Yu and the others approached the market town, they saw a Yellowstone Ferry by the lake and a small decayed wooden boat docked beside the Yellowstone Ferry.

The only strange thing is that all the camel caravans and travelers who set off in the market town did not take boats, but left along the lake shore, as if they wanted to bypass this big lake.

Tao Yu swept his gaze, and found a thin old man in a white robe under a small thick stone house by the ferry, sitting in the shadow of the stone house, squinting his eyes and drowsy, pretending that there were no people around him.

"Don't force us to do it! You can take us across the Mirror Lake, you can ask for as many spirit stones and gold as you want, otherwise you will have nothing." A brown-haired man said anxiously, threateningly.

The old man was unmoved and simply closed his eyes.

Tao Yu raised his eyebrows, the old man was quite stubborn.

The brown-haired man was furious, and he pulled out the scimitar from his waist and pointed it at the old man, and was held down by a black curly-haired strong man behind him who looked like a leader.The black curly-haired strong man with Nascent Soul Stage cultivation, with muscles all over his body, asked in a calm voice, "Why do you still refuse to cross us to Mingjing Lake? We are in a hurry, and you don't want us to do something, do you?"

The old man rolled his eyelids and said, "I advise you to go around Mingjing Lake. You don't want to die. I still want to live a few more years, old man."

"What are you talking about!" the brown-haired man shouted angrily, and the black curly-haired man also squinted his eyes, staring at the old man and said, "What do you mean?"

The old man sneered, and said with a half-smile: "Where is Mingjing Lake, the black sand thieves who want to come across the desert should know, and you need to ask this old man?"

Tao Yu looked at the lake named Mingjing Lake, and glanced at the group of people surrounding the old man with great interest.

That human being was right. If these few people entered the lake, they would never have survived to reach the other side.

Being called to reveal his identity, the black curly-haired strong man frowned immediately. He looked down at the old man with a low and dangerous tone: "Of course we know where Mingjing Lake is, so now I'm asking if you have any way to cross the lake."

The old man said impatiently: "Have you said everything? Can't you understand human speech?"

A man standing behind the strong man with black curly hair noticed Tao Yu and Fan Hongxi walking slowly in the distance, and immediately drew out his machete and shouted, "What are you looking at! Get out of here!"

Tao Yu raised his eyebrows and snorted mockingly. Fan Hongxi squeezed his hand under his sleeve, cupped his hand calmly, and looked over the curly black hair who turned his head and said to the old man with a smile: "We are going to cross the river. Lake, are you a boatman? Can you cross us?"

The old man raised his eyelids and glanced at Tao Yu and Fan Hongxi. A sharp light flashed under his drooping eyelids. Then he stood up, stretched his waist, raised his chin and said, "Get on board."

Fan Hongxi smiled and said, "Thank you, Your Excellency."

"Don't go!" "Let's cross the lake first!"

The black sand thieves pulled out their scimitars and pointed at Tao Yu and the old man who was walking towards the boat.

Unmoved, the old man took out a water bag and a dilapidated lamp from the stone house, and without changing his face, he pushed away the scimitar blade pointing at him, stepped on the Yellowstone Ferry and went directly to the small river. A wooden boat, bowing its head and untying the oars tied to the boat.

Tao Yu and Fan Hongxi were about to walk up to Huangshi Ferry when their footsteps stopped suddenly.

A bright crimson knife light suddenly struck in front of them, stirring up a piece of flying yellow sand.

Tao Yu clicked his tongue, folded his arms impatiently and said, "What? I can't cross the lake by myself, and neither can others?"

The burly black curly-haired man held a gorgeous long scimitar inlaid with gold and gemstones, and his eyes were cold: "People from the Outland, don't be too arrogant. This is the Desert of Fantasy Time, not your Eastern Territory."

Fan Hongxi said calmly: "Since the boatman refuses to let you cross the lake, presumably there is a reason for him, why bother so much?"

A few Golden Core cultivators behind the black curly-haired strong man showed fierce eyes, and surrounded him, and the strong man sneered: "We Black Sand Bandits have been walking in the Magic Time Desert for many years, and we don't rely on people like you people from Outland. The way girls chirp depends on strength! I can't move the boatman of Mingjing Lake, but I can move you. If I say I won't let you cross the lake, you don't want to cross the lake."

The old man untied the oars, stood on the slightly swaying wooden boat and said lazily, "Are you ready? I'm leaving."

Tao Yu stared at the strong black curly-haired man and sneered, "Then you try?"

After finishing speaking, he walked towards the dilapidated wooden boat at Huangshi Ferry without looking back. Fan Hongxi smiled faintly, then turned around and walked to Huangshi Ferry with Tao Yu.

"Kill them!" The black curly-haired man sharpened his eyes and gave a low shout. The ornate long machete in his hand glowed crimson, and the sharp light of the knife rushed towards the backs of Tao Yu and Fan Hongxi with several attacks.

Tao Yu nodded and did not turn back, while Fan Hongxi calmly held the Blue Wind Sword at his waist, turned around and swung the sword away.

Scatter the clouds!

The fierce sword qi exploded, smashing all the attacks in the blink of an eye.

"Hmph, die!" The black curly-haired strong man shouted ferociously, his whole body lit up with a bright red light, the crimson flame was wrapped with a long scimitar, and he slashed at Fan Hongxi head-on with a powerful knife!

The scorching hot air wave made Fan Hongxi's long hair and robe flutter, his eyes were peaceful, his sword was like a streamer of light, and he stabbed straight at the blazing light coming towards his face.

Shocked!

With a sound of "shua", the red sword light was pierced by the white sword light, and it stabbed sharply at the black curly haired man who was about to slash down with the knife again.

The black curly-haired man's eyes widened instantly, reflecting the swiftly stabbing long sword.

He can't escape!

The whistling sword light froze, and Fan Hongxi's long sword stopped firmly in front of the throat of the black curly-haired strong man.

The gorgeous long scimitar froze in mid-air, and a drop of cold sweat fell down the forehead of the strong man with black curly hair.

He swallowed hard, and although the cold and sharp sword tip was still a little distance from his quivering throat, he still felt the cold sharp piercing through his throat, piercing into his heart.

Fan Hongxi smiled lightly, put the sword back into its sheath, and said peacefully: "Let's just leave it alone."

After finishing speaking, he turned and walked to Huangshi Ferry, and together with Tao Yu, who was waiting for him by the ferry, stepped into the decayed and dilapidated small wooden boat.

The small wooden boat swayed, and there were waves on the lake again.The old man untied the rope tied to the ferry at the stern, raised his leg and kicked the Yellowstone ferry, and the small wooden boat swayed towards the clear, clear blue water like a gemstone.

The old man stood at the stern and rowed the boat, and said slowly: "You people from outside the land may not know that Mingjing Lake is not as calm as it looks on the surface. What dangers will arise later, old man, I have old arms and legs, and I can only rely on you myself."

Fan Hongxi nodded: "Naturally, thank you for reminding me."

Tao Yu glanced at the clear bottom of the lake, where there was nothing but yellow sand and some fine debris, and said, "It's fine, and it's not a big deal."

The old man laughed and said, "Yes, it's no big deal."

Gradually slanting to the west, the sky is orange-red and dusky, reflecting the lake's bright red.The small wooden boat breaks through a calm lake, making waves layer by layer, shining golden light in the sun.Tao Yu and Fan Hongxi stood at the bow of the boat, quietly looking at the boundless and clear lake in front of them.

The surface of the lake was wrinkled, and the waves swayed layer by layer, swaying and swaying.In the rippling spot of light, some shadow emerged from it, and suddenly burst out of it.

The water waves exploded and splashed, and more than a dozen ferocious black shadows jumped out of the ripples, waving their sharp claws at the people on board.

Fan Hongxi clenched the Blue Wind Sword calmly, stood up and jumped, the sword light streaked across a bright arc.

month back!

The bright arc-shaped sword light almost drew a circle, and hit the rushing black shadow with a swipe.The black shadows were slashed by the sword light, split into two and smashed back into the water.

The water splashed one after another, splashing everywhere, and wet the small wooden boat that was still rock-solid in the sudden waves.The old man rowing at the stern rowed his oars, and continued to row forward without even lifting his eyelids during the sudden attack just now.

Tao Yu stared thoughtfully at the black shadows that fell back to the lake, and said to Fan Hongxi who fell back on the boat: "These should be phantoms born in the lake, formed as reflections, and when the lake was stirred up, It will be dispatched to attack the living on the lake, which is a bit interesting."

The old man took a sip from the water bag at his waist and smiled, "That's right, senior has good eyesight. Doesn't the bright mirror reflect the hearts of all those who cross the lake?"

Fan Hongxi put his sword back into its sheath, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency is calm and composed, your heart is like a rock, you are really powerful."

The old man laughed and said, "If I don't have any skills, how can I be the master of the boat?"

Mingjing Lake is huge, and when they saw the other side of the lake, the sun had already set to the west.The sky had darkened, and the bright stars had pierced the darkness and lit up in the blue-purple sky.

The old man lit a lamp and hung it by the bedside. The bright candlelight reflected the lake water, creating a rippling spot of light.After Tao Yu and Fan Hongxi disembarked, he tied the small wooden boat to Huangshi Ferry and went ashore with a lamp.

The surface of Mingjing Lake calmed down, reflecting a large expanse of bright starry sky, as if a dome of stars had fallen, and endless broken stars scattered all over the earth, filling the lake with starlight.

Tao Yu stretched his waist and looked around: "There is no one here."

The old man said: "No one who walks around the lake will go this way, of course no one."

Fan Hongxi smiled and said, "I wonder how much the boat fare is?"

The old man waved his hand and said casually: "I think you are very pleasing to the eye, old man, so the boat fee is unnecessary."

Fan Hongxi shook his head: "No, you still have to pay the boat fare."

The old man thought for a while, and said a little excitedly: "Then do you have wine? It's better to be strong wine."

In the end, the old man happily walked into the nearest stone house with a large altar of good spirits given by Fan Hongxi.

Before entering the door, he said to Tao Yu and the others: "The stone houses here are all empty, you can choose whatever you want."

Tao Yu and the others didn't plan to spend the night here, so they bid farewell to the old man and continued walking west.
