The old man smiled slightly: "Yes, this water is not ordinary water, twenty miles away from here, there is a mirror lake, as the name suggests, it is like the surface of a mirror, and this water is the water in the mirror lake." ”

Everyone was surprised that it was actually the lake water that was drunk directly? You know, a lot of the lake water is polluted, and there are even children urinating in it. As soon as she thought of this, Ellie, who was known for cleanliness, couldn't help frowning and wanted to vomit on the spot.

"Rest assured, the water in this mirrored lake is extremely clean and unpolluted. The old man smiled, "Not only that, but this water is still very good for you warlocks to drink, don't you feel that the qi in your body is running more smoothly?"

Being reminded by the old man like this, Hao Meng and the others felt it carefully, not to mention, it seemed to be really the case.

"Is that true?" said Eribe in surprise.

Rudy asked excitedly, "Then if you drink more, will it be able to improve our cultivation?"

"It's not that exaggerated, it's just that it can make the qi in your body run a little faster, and it can't reach the height of improving your cultivation. The old man smiled and shook his head.

Ellie put down the teacup and said, "Okay, let's mention the problem of water here, old man, since you have appointed our Dragon God Academy to take over this commission, then please tell us more about the content of the commission." ”

"I was about to say that while you'd love to stop the water problem, my commission really has to do with the Mirror Lake. The old man spread his hands and smiled helplessly.

Ellie was stunned at first, and then her face turned a little red: "Old gentleman, please speak." ”

"In fact, the mirror lake is more than just a lake. And it's also the domestic water for our entire Ringing City, but now, for some reason, that lake is completely frozen!" the old man sighed.

Frozen in the air? Hao Meng and the others were all slightly surprised, to freeze a lake, this is not something ordinary people can do. At the very least, you need to be at the level of a sorcerer or above to be possible, and it has to be an ice type!

"Then the old gentleman commissioned us to melt the mirror lake?" Ellie asked tentatively.

The old man nodded: "That's right, I ask you to melt the mirror lake and let it return to its original appearance." If it goes on like this, I'm afraid that all of us in Lin'er City will die of thirst!"

Hao Meng and the others looked at each other, and they all felt a trace of solemnity.

"I see, old man, though I would love to say yes directly. But I have to ask, how is the pay?" asked Ellie Zhengse, even if she wanted to help for free, Hao Meng and the others were relatively short of money, and their opinions had to be considered.

The old man smiled and held up a finger.

"A hundred gold coins?" Ellie raised her eyebrows, a little less, but not unacceptable.

The old man shook his head: "No!"

"Then it's only ten gold coins?" said Ellie, thinking to herself, so that could only be counted. For the sake of the ordinary civilians of Ringcity. I barely helped out.

The old man smiled and shook his head: "Guess high!"

"Gorichai?" Ellie was surprised, "that's a thousand gold coins?"

If it's a thousand gold coins, then it can basically top the rewards of their usual tasks, although they have to hand over two percent, and then five people have one point, which is a little less in everyone's hands. But it can also settle down to solve the urgent need.

Who knew that the old man still shook his head, and shook his index finger: "No, it's 10,000 gold coins!"

"Ten thousand gold coins?" Eribe screamed directly.

Even Hao Meng and the others were very moved, and 10,000 gold coins was not a small amount. Especially looking at the situation in the old man's house, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a person who can come up with 10,000 gold coins.

Ellie quickly came to her senses and coughed dryly: "Ahem, old man, it's not that I don't believe you very much, it's really a bit huge for this 10,000 gold coins, and judging from your house, it's ......"

Ellie's words were not finished, but the old man had already understood, and he smiled: "I understand what you mean, don't worry, I will definitely take out 10,000 gold coins, if you don't believe it, I can show it to you now." ”

Saying that, the old man was about to turn around and go upstairs, Hao Meng and the others glanced at each other, Hao Meng hurriedly stood up and said: "Old man, no need, we believe in you, we have taken this task!"

"Really?" the old man suddenly felt a little excited, and directly held Hao Meng's hands, "Thank you so much!"

Hao Meng was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly pulled out his hands, and said, "Don't worry, old man, we will definitely complete the task successfully." ”

"Thank you so much!" the old man nodded repeatedly.

Xiaoxue said on the side: "Okay, without further ado, let's hurry up!"

Ellie nodded, "Okay, sir, please tell us the location of the Mirror Lake." ”

"No problem, I've got a map here, you can take it. As he spoke, the old man pulled out a leather scroll from a drawer, on which was a map of the Mirror Lake was actually depicted.

Hao Meng and the others leaned in to take a look, and nodded in agreement, Eribe scratched the back of his head and nodded and asked, "That...... Excuse me, where is Ringcity?"

"This should be Ringer City, right?" Rudy said, pointing to a fingernail-sized marker on the map, with an asterisk.

The old man looked at it and shook his head: "No, that's not Lin'er City, it was indeed a city before, but it was completely destroyed in the war decades ago, and Lin'er City is a little next to it." ”

Everyone looked at the place pointed by the old man, and they were all extremely surprised: "Old man, are you sure this is Lin Er City?"

"What, what's the problem?" the old man was puzzled.

Hao Meng and the others looked at each other, and they all felt a little speechless, the mark representing Lin Er City was only a small dot, much smaller than the mark the size of a fingernail just now.

"Sir, this map can't be wrong, right?" Rudy's voice trembled slightly, "Wouldn't the Mirror Lake be quite large at this scale?"

The mirrored lake on the map is the size of a palm. And Ringer City is equivalent to a grain of rice at most!

The old man nodded with a smile: "What's the matter? The Mirror Lake is already quite big!"

Everyone was silent, a mirror lake feels like it can fit hundreds of Ringer City, is this still a fucking lake? Okay, there is land around the mirror lake, so it can barely be called a lake, but this lake is terrible.

"Alright. Don't say anything else, thank you, old man, then we're going!" Ellie saluted the old man with the map, and then walked out with Hao Meng and the others.

After re-boarding the carriage, Hao Meng and Rudy drove the carriage towards the west gate of Lin'er City, because the mirror lake was twenty miles from the west gate. It's just that when everyone thinks of the marks on the map, they can't help but laugh.

"Can this be called a fucking lake?" exclaimed.

Xiaoxue glanced sideways: "There is land around, what is the name of the lake?"

Ellie shook her head, "We should be thinking about it now." It's not a matter of the size of this lake, it's about who has the ability to freeze a mirrored lake the size of hundreds of Ringer City!"

Hearing this question, Eribe and Xiaoxue suddenly fell silent, and even Hao Meng and Rudy, who were driving, were full of solemnity.

That's right, I didn't expect it just now, but now I'm reminded by Ellie, and I found out. To freeze such a large area of the Mirror Lake, how terrifying is the amount of qi that needs to be consumed? Not to mention an ordinary magician. Even if a Sacred Domain level master can do it, they are very skeptical, not to mention that it has to be an Ice Sacred Domain master!

For a while, everyone's expressions were extremely solemn, and the strictness of this task was beyond their imagination.

Twenty miles is not far, and it doesn't take long. They approached the Mirror Lake. Before they could get closer, they felt a chill coming, and they saw a large white ice in front of them.

On the shore, however, it is a patch of green, which contrasts with the white ice.

After arriving at the shore. Hao Meng and Rudy stopped the carriage, and everyone stepped out of the carriage. Eribe hugged himself and stomped his feet vigorously: "Whew! It's so cold, it's cold! Damn, we don't have winter coats with us, why don't we go back to Lin'er City to buy a coat to wear, otherwise we won't have to complete the task, I'm afraid I'm already freezing to death first!"

"Huh, come here, this ice is not cold!" At this time, Xiaoxue, who ran to the ice, suddenly screamed in surprise.

"What? Isn't it cold? What are you kidding? I'm about to freeze to death standing here!" Eribe shivered vigorously, and directly used the qi in his body to send out a flame, baking and heating.

Hao Meng and the others ignored Eribe, and after hearing Xiaoxue's words, they all walked to the ice, squatted down, and touched it with their hands, not to mention, although it felt quite cold when standing on the shore, but after arriving on the ice, they didn't feel cold at all, and the ice was not only not cold, but had a warm feeling.

"Really!" Rudy was surprised, "this ice is indeed not cold, it is still warm, what is going on?"

Eribe, who was on the shore, was surprised and asked, "Is the ice warm?

Ellie snorted coldly: "Who has the kung fu to tease you? The ice is indeed warm, just come up and touch it yourself!"

With a look of suspicion, Elibe slowly walked onto the ice, and as soon as he left the shore, he felt that all the chill just now disappeared without a trace, he squatted down and touched the ice, to his surprise, the ice was really warm.

"Damn! what's going on? The ice isn't cold, it's warm!" "Eribe couldn't help but scream, "You're fucking kidding me?"

Hao Meng said in a deep voice: "The more abnormal it is, it means that our task is not simple, everyone should be careful!"
