Opening his eyes and looking at his surroundings, the boy couldn't help but smile wryly.

Looking up, what came into my eyes was still a lonely and vast endless yellow sand, with no people, no living creatures, and no Su Qinghua and Lu Yi.

In fact, the reason why Ye Feng chose to enter the teleportation array last now was not for politeness, but after he saw the very small teleportation array, he suddenly had a very strange premonition.

He always felt that Li Ji would not let him return to Thousand Caves City so easily, because judging from Li Ji's skills and character, either he would not be stingy if he didn't make a move.

Since she wanted to help her group return to Thousand Caves City earlier, it stands to reason that she should have told herself the location of the larger teleportation array, instead of pointing out a small teleportation array that could only accommodate one person.

Coupled with Li Ji's inexplicable urging later, Ye Feng had actually basically guessed Li Ji's purpose.

She must have wanted to take this opportunity to temper herself again, so she deliberately urged everyone to leave quickly.

Although the boy already knew that the teleportation array would definitely be strange, he could only hope for a chance to move in.

Because if his group does not go through the teleportation array and instead walks, then Yi Liji's temper will inevitably find another way.

At that time, I am afraid that Su Qinghua and Lu Yi will be affected by themselves!

And the reason why Ye Feng chose to be the last one to enter the teleportation array was to say goodbye to Su Qinghua and the others one by one.

"Alas......"

Ye Feng sighed helplessly.

He squatted on the ground and took out the sheepskin map of Sinan and the black sand beach from his back basket, intending to find out his current location before making plans.

Just as Ye Feng was looking at it, the sound of the toad ingots urn came out faintly from the back basket beside him: "Hmm, Boss Ye, let's... Where is this?"

Yuan Bao jumped out of the back basket and landed on Ye Feng's shoulder, and in a large number of circles, the frog's eyes were full of confusion and looked at Ye Feng.

It's not that the ingots lack the heart and eyes, but because it's just a spirit pet and not a human, so as soon as it entered the teleportation array, it fell asleep due to discomfort, and it didn't wake up until now, naturally ignorant of what was happening in the outside world.

"I don't know... Wait a minute, don't bother me!"

Ye Feng replied without raising his head.

Although Yuan Bao was dissatisfied when he heard this, it had always been very good at observing words and feelings, so it naturally saw that Ye Feng was wrong, so it was very angry and deflated its frog mouth, but it didn't dare to speak again.

Holding Sinan in his hand and repeatedly confirming it against the scorching sun in the sky, Ye Feng's finger fell on the location of Mobei on the black sand beach map, and he said to himself: "Hmm... It should be here..."

"What's here, baby?"

Yuan Bao hurriedly asked.

"Baby fart!"

Ye Feng glanced at Yuanbao, saw the latter's pitiful eyes, thought about it and told Yuanbao what happened in the Red Mansion and his current situation.

After listening to Ye Feng's narration, Yuan Bao couldn't help but shout loudly: "Isn't it! That woman is so ruthless!?"

Ye Feng was very reluctant for Yuan Bao to say that Li Ji was not good, so he hurriedly waved his hand and defended him: "Don't say that, she is also for my good!"

Yuan Bao pursed his mouth, and said angrily: "Yes, yes, it's all for your good!

As soon as the words fell, the fat toad was thrown into the back basket by Ye Feng.

Stuffing the sheepskin map into his arms, the young man got up and put on his back the basket, Si Nan in his right hand and Xuanjiao in his left hand, and strode north.

At this time, Ye Feng had been teleported to Mobei by the teleportation array, instead of passing through the small half of the black sand beach and returning the same way, it was better to go all the way north out of the desert and then turn back to the safety of Thousand Caves City.

After only a few steps, the young man suddenly stopped, he looked back at the desert behind him, and patted his head in annoyance, "Oops! Why did you forget to ask about that..."

What annoyed Ye Feng was nothing else, it was the mirage he saw with Su Qinghua in the illusion.

In the Red Mansion before, Ye Feng originally planned to ask Li Ji about the situation first, and then find out what was going on in the Mirage.

But later, Li Ji suddenly gave the Phantom Star Bead to Ye Feng, and the young man only cared about the excitement and forgot about it...

Looking at the yellow sand behind him, Ye Feng couldn't help but sigh helplessly.

It must have been caused by Li Ji who was teleported to Mobei, so she naturally wouldn't show up easily, so if she wanted to figure out about the mirage again, I was afraid that she would have to wait until the Year of the Monkey...

Retracted his mind and adjusted his mood, the young man tightened his back basket, and set out on the way home alone.

Deep underground in the black sand beach, Li Ji in the curtain of the Red Mansion sighed faintly, "Alas.... Brother..... Don't blame my sister for being ruthless, my sister is also so that you can grow up as soon as possible....."

At the same time, there is a narrow official road connecting the black sand beach and the Thousand Cave City.

Su Qinghua, Lu Yi, and Lin Qiuyue, all three of them looked anxiously at the black sand beach in the distance, looking forward to the next moment, the thin figure could appear in their field of vision.

————

After walking in the desert for nearly half a decade, Ye Feng knew that he had completed half of the journey according to the sheepskin map.

However, the young man's face did not have the joy it should have, but his brows were furrowed and his face was full of sadness.

Because, he has no food and no fresh water!

Originally, Ye Feng brought the most food in the group, followed by Lu Yi, and Su Qinghua didn't bring anything except some personal items.

However, they had not planned to go deep into the black sand beach before, and although the outer part of the black sand beach was barren, they could also encounter a few sporadic post stations from time to time, so the food and fresh water in the reserve were not too much.

After a few days, Ye Feng found that although Mobei did not go too deep into the black sand beach, it was even more barren than the place he had walked before.

Not to mention the oasis along the way, not even a single post station and a figure were seen.

Fortunately, the young man is very able to endure hardships and has strong self-control, so he has survived until now by relying on food that was only enough for three days.

"Boss Ye.... How long will it take for us to get out... I can't hold it anymore..... I'm going to starve to death....."

The toad ingots were lying on their backs in the back basket, and muttered to Ye Feng weakly.

Ye Feng didn't answer, but stopped and took off the water bladder on his waist, pulled out the plug and gently dipped his chapped lips at the mouth of the sac, hung the water bladder back on his waist, wiped the sweat with his sleeve, and continued to hurry.

It's not that the boy doesn't want to take care of the ingots, he just wants to say less, so as not to be too thirsty.

Until the scorching sun, Ye Feng finally stopped because he couldn't stand the exposure to the sun.

Looking for a shady sand dune, the young man put the back basket aside, lay on the yellow sand in a big shape with Xuanjiao in his hand, and fell asleep in a daze.

The toad ingots in the back basket looked at the last small piece of jerky in front of him, stretched out his slender tongue and licked it on the jerky, but finally did not eat it.

I don't know how long it took, Ye Feng was awakened by a noisy sound of footsteps and conversations:

"Oh, Lin Darttou, our brothers have suffered a lot in this work, and when we get to Hill Town, do we have to let them pay them a little more!?"

"Hmm..... This matter is on me, you can rest assured! Brothers have also worked hard, you go and tell the fire, let's stop here and rest for a while, and wait for the sun to go down before we go!"

"Okay!"

As the conversation ended, a footstep from far and near walked in the direction of Ye Feng.

Ye Feng grabbed a handful of sand beside him and rubbed his face, thought for a while in his heart, got up and took his things and walked in the direction of the footsteps.

At the same time, a sturdy man in a linen coarse shirt walked in the direction of Ye Feng while untying his trouser belt.

The man stopped when he walked to a higher sand dune, he turned his head from side to side, and when he saw that there was no one around, he lowered his trouser belt and took out the treasure to make it easier.

Before the water could hit the ground, a thin, dark-skinned boy suddenly showed half of his body from the other side of the dune, which frightened the man and almost fell on his body.

"I'll go!

The rough-clothed man glared at Ye Feng and yelled.

Ye Feng, a dark-faced young man, stared at the man with two big black and white eyes, bared a mouthful of neat little white teeth, and asked the man in a happy tone: "Hey, big brother!Is there water!?"

Ye Feng's opening didn't matter, but the rough-clothed man was startled again.

The man jumped back violently, holding his pants in one hand, pointing at Ye Feng with the other, and asked with a shocked face:

"Bah! What kind of monster is there! Tell me quickly! Why do you peek at Uncle Ben peeing!? What are your intentions!?"

"Huh??"

Ye Feng's face was black...

After a while, after some heart-to-heart conversation, Ye Feng and the rough-clothed man finally solved the misunderstanding between each other and shook hands.

From the man's mouth, Ye Feng learned that this man's surname was Lin, and he was a dart head, and he came to Black Beach this time because he took on a big business and led the team to pass through here.

As for the man's full name and what they were escorting, this dart head surnamed Lin did not explain it to Ye Feng, thinking that it was to keep it secret for his employer.

However, this Lin Dart is also an open-minded and enthusiastic person, and after a few conversations with Ye Feng, he let go of his hostility towards the young man, and introduced Ye Feng to a few of his subordinates, and also ordered someone to bring a large bowl of mutton steamed buns to Ye Feng.

Squatting on the yellow sand in the shadow of the sand dunes, the young man ate soft white flour buns and drank the fragrant haggis soup, feeling very comfortable in his heart.

"Whew~ It's really enjoyable!"

Ye Feng raised his head and closed his eyes, and exhaled beautifully.

The toad ingots in the back basket were immediately reluctant when they saw this.

Regardless of whether it would be discovered by others, Yuan Bao got out of the back basket, jumped on Ye Feng's shoulder, and rolled the largest piece of mutton in the soup bowl into his mouth with a snort, and then jumped back to the back basket with a swish.
