Xia Yu was stunned for a while, he was used to seeing a roofed house, and suddenly saw this kind of wall with a boxy sky on his head, Xia Yu was really not used to it, but there was no trace of discomfort at all, how could this not make Xia Yu feel surprised.

According to Li Tong, in addition to Xia Yu, there were two other girls, but they all seemed to have suffered some minor injuries and were sent to the village chief's house for treatment.

"This house ......" Xia Yu saw the only house with a roof in the village, but this one was only covered by all kinds of green vines, not only the roof, but even the walls were covered with all kinds of vines.

Li Tong said with a smile: "The village chief likes all kinds of flowers and plants very much, and he has the most flowers and plants here!"

With the little turtle's knowledge, Xia Yu barely recognized several flowers and plants, and according to the little turtle, these plants are relatively rare.

"Li Tong?" an old voice came out, and Xia Yu and Li Tong were still outside the courtyard gate at this time.

"The young man woke up, and I brought him over to see his companions. Li Tong replied outside the courtyard gate, but his body did not move.

Xia Yu and Li Tong stood outside the door, looking around a little strangely, he was looking for the door, because the house was surrounded by all kinds of vines, and the walls inside had already been wrapped, and Xia Yu didn't see the door at all.

At this moment, the village chief spoke: "Come in, these two little girls have not woken up yet." Then, Xia Yu saw a strange scene: in front of the place where he and Li Tong were standing, the wall covered with vines suddenly moved, and the quiet vines seemed to be alive, and as soon as the village chief spoke, they began to move to both sides, revealing a one-person wide road leading to the roof of the hollow hole.

Xia Yu followed behind Li Tong and walked inside. In the slightly dark house, it is not as far as Xia Yu thinks, but there is only a lack of that gorgeous color, and the brightness is not bad.

"It seems that you are recovering well!" Xia Yu looked up and looked ahead, and Li Tong stood beside an old man. The old man was about fifty or sixty years old, his beard was gray, but his face was very young, and his body was not as old as other old men, except for some wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, the skin in other places showed a youthful aura that did not match his beard at all.

"How are the two of them?" Xia Yu saw Lotus and the bottle lying on top of two beds made of rattan.

The village chief shook his head, "One of them was swept into her body by something, causing her internal organs to be injured and may need to recuperate for a while, while the other was injured by a fall and her leg was broken. ”

Xia Yu leaned down and looked at the lotus and the bottle respectively, and sure enough, as the village chief said, the lotus was swept in the back by the tail of the trembling beast, but the bottle's right leg was wrapped in a layer of hard white things, and it looked like it couldn't get off the ground for a while.

"You live here now, although the conditions here may not be very good, but the scenery is not bad, and it is not too late for you to leave when these two little girls are healed!" the village chief's voice showed an old look that was completely different from his.

Xia Yu nodded, "Thank you to the village chief for that!

The village chief smiled with relief, "This is my responsibility as a doctor, you don't have to be polite, young man! During this time, you should live in Li Tong's house first, I often have some villagers here to come to see the doctor, so it is not convenient to leave you." ”

Xia Yu smiled at the village chief to show understanding, "Then Brother Li Tong and I will go back first, and when they wake up, I will ask the village chief to send someone to inform me." ”

The village chief nodded and agreed to Xia Yu.

When Xia Yu and Li Tong walked out of the village chief's house, the dazzling colors in the sky were slowly fading, and the whole world seemed to be darkening......

Xia Yu clearly remembered that it was the morning of the War Beast Forest when he was devoured by Bai Mang, could it be that he had been in a coma for a long time?

With such a question, Xia Yu asked Li Tong. Li Tong told Xia Yu that he had not been in a coma for long, and it had only been about three hours since Li Tong asked someone to carry them out of the forest.

Xia Yu became more and more curious, could it be that he had been lying in the forest for nearly a day? Unlikely, Xia Yu immediately denied this possibility, according to Li Tong, the people in the village often passed by the forest, if Xia Yu had been lying for a long time, he would have been discovered a long time ago, and would not have been discovered by Li Tong, who came down the mountain last.

Then there's only one possibility: jet lag!

The time here may not be the same as the time outside, Xia Yu thought.

At night, Li Tong took out some unknown beast meat, cut it and drank some wine with Xia Yu, and then fell asleep.

It can be seen that Li Tong's family is really poor.

The only oil lamp is still in Xia Yu's room, and Xia Yu has not seen any other furniture and the like, I don't know if it is the popular natural style here or really primitive, Xia Yu saw that Li Tong's hunting weapon turned out to be a homemade wooden bow, and the arrow was made by sharpening the front with a very simple wooden stick.

It is very appropriate to describe Li Tong's house with four walls. The yellow earthen walls were not very high, and they were painted with a layer of black and unknown things, but they were not too rough, and there was no decoration on the walls except for some specimens of wild beasts.

Xia Yu couldn't help but sigh at the primitiveness of this place, and at the same time wondered what kind of place this was.

On the way to the village chief's house before, Xia Yu had asked Li Tong, but Li Tong couldn't say clearly, only knew that the people in the village had always lived here, and no one had ever gone out!

Xia Yu just noticed that this is said to be a village, but it is actually very large, there are countless houses, and it has been extending outward, which seems to occupy a huge area.

Listening to the barking dogs in his ears, and some unknown night insects chirping outside, looking at the stars overhead, Xia Yu fell asleep unconsciously.

Xia Yu was awakened by a soft sound of Suosuo. It turned out that Li Tong was going to hunt in the back mountain, Xia Yu thought about it and decided to go with Li Tong, he mainly wanted to see the place where he was unconscious yesterday, maybe he could find something.

Li Tong disagreed at first, saying that there were many fierce beasts in the back mountain, and Xia Yu was not allowed to accompany him. But after Xia Yu said that he just wanted to see the place where they were unconscious, Li Tong agreed to Xia Yu.

The two of them simply ate something, it was a soup made of fruits, the sweet and sour taste was very good, Xia Yu drank two large bowls in one go.

Li Tong carried his wooden bow on his back, and then found a long wooden spear for Xia Yu. This wooden spear was extremely heavy in the hand, not at all like wood, and seemed to catch up with the weight of metal.

However, Li Tong is not good at hand-to-hand combat, but he has a good hand in archery, but it is a pity that Li Tong said that all the beasts here are rough and thick-skinned, and it is difficult for bows and arrows like him to really hurt those large beasts, so he can only hunt some ordinary beasts such as birds.

Xia Yu had never used a spear, but it was difficult to refuse Li Tong's kindness, so he stuck the spear on his waist and walked with Li Tong to the back mountain.

It can be said that the only weapons Xia Yu has used are swords and daggers. Fortunately, the long sword was not lost, when Li Tong found Xia Yu, the long sword was next to Xia Yu, and Li Tong naturally returned it to Xia Yu. As for the daggers, Xia Yu had several in his ring, so Xia Yu was not worried about their safety. No matter how bad it is, Xia Yu himself still has the strength of Wang Pin, and there is no danger in dealing with those ordinary beasts.

On the way, the two walked and chatted, and Xia Yu roughly understood the situation of this place from Li Tong's mouth.

What shocked Xia Yu was that there were hundreds of thousands of people here, and it was said that their ancestors came here together, as for why they came here, Li Tong didn't know, but I was afraid that few people knew about this issue.

The place where they lived was flat, and according to Li Tong, if it stretched outward, there was a natural barrier there, and it was a cliff that could not be climbed at all.

The cliffs encircle half of the flat land, and the other half is the forest known as the back mountain.

Listening to Li Tong, there have been people who have tried to get out of here, but no one has ever succeeded. The cliffs were naturally impossible to climb, and the more you walked inwards in this forest, the more powerful the beasts became, and it was difficult for even large hunting groups to continue their march inside.

Originally, the main source of food for the people here was picking wild fruits and hunting. Later, there were no enough wild fruits for these people to eat, so fruit farmers began to grow a variety of edible plants, and people near the back mountains and forests relied on hunting. Later, with the improvement of people's cultivation technology and the invention of various hunting tools, surplus food slowly began to be exchanged, and people gradually became accustomed to this way of life.

There are many villages like Li Tong and their near the back mountain, and each village is headed by its own village head, and there is no other leader above it.

Originally, there was still some animal meat at home, it was two digging beasts and a gray-eyed bird that Li Tong captured yesterday, if it was only Li Tong, these foods would naturally be enough for Li Tong to eat for two or three days, and now that there is one more Xia Yu, Li Tong naturally has to prepare more food, and the plant food at home has also run out, and he has to fight a few more beasts to go to Zhonghe Village to exchange some plant food.

Zhonghe is the largest of all the villages, it is located in the middle of the whole region, and it is also the place where all goods are exchanged, and fruit farmers and hunters will bring their own endless things to exchange for necessities.

At this time, Xia Yu finally knew what Li Tong was so poor. Before the two of them went up the mountain, Li Tong took out all the food in the house and distributed it to some neighbors around the family - these people are all old people, women and children, children, according to Li Tong, the men in their family were killed by wild beasts when they went up the mountain to hunt, so only these old, weak, sick and disabled are left, if it were not for Li Tong and the village's frequent relief, these people would have been unable to live for a long time.

Although these people also grow some plant food, due to the soil here, all kinds of plants grow slowly, and they can only collect a small amount of food a year.

Xia Yu and Li Tong walked down a small river towards the mountain. This small river is all the water source, but fortunately, there is no drought, no rain, no snowfall, no wonder Li Tong was surprised when he heard Xia Yu say about rain and winter, they don't have these terms here.

There are many small rivers like this in this forest, and these small rivers flow from the whole plain to the cliff in front of it, and finally form a lake in front of the cliff.

The first half of the cliffs is usually called a fruit farming area, and the back is a hunting area.

Li Tong also told Xia Yu that there are countless hunters in the hunting area, and some hunters usually form hunting solidarity partners to go deep into the forest in order to get more wild beasts, and Li Tong has a hunting group in their village, and the members of this hunting group are the most experienced and skilled hunters in the whole village, and their hunting equipment is also the best in the village.

The least number of people here is all kinds of technical talents. Specialists who can make all kinds of hunting tools are the most popular in the hunting area, while in the fruit growing area, the most popular people are old fruit farmers who are proficient in various planting techniques.

To tell the truth, Xia Yu, who really understands the living habits here, realized that this is a primitive society at all, with simple tools and a miserable lifestyle, but the people here are very happy, although they sometimes face hunger and hardship, but they all work hard to survive.

In other words, they all knew their goal - to live, and it was for this reason that Xia Yu slowly fell in love with it.

On the way, Xia Yu kept seeing some children who were only eight or nine years old walking down the mountain with heavy dry firewood about the same size as them, and they all greeted Li Tong happily on the way.

Li Tong saw Xia Yu's doubts and explained, "These are the children I have helped. In our village, only the children of the hunting group can afford to go to school, and although these children are only eight or nine years old, they are already able to help the family share a lot of the pressure. ”

Xia Yu sighed in his heart, sure enough, every place has its own difficulties, he has been in a society hundreds of times more developed than here since he was a child, but he still can't eat thin and can't wear warm clothes.

Li Tong is twenty-eight years old this year, his parents died early, he grew up alone, and most of the food he hunted was distributed to other families who were poorer than him, because he has not yet started a family.

Xia Yu, who was originally just going to take a casual look, knew about these situations, and immediately decided that he must help Li Tong catch some large beasts today.

"Brother Xia Yu, look, this is where I found you. Li Tong pointed to the flat place in front of him and said to Xia Yu behind him.

"Is this here?" Xia Yu looked around, there was nothing strange about this place at all.

"Yes, I suspect that you and your companions tumbled down from there!" Li Tong pointed to the steep slope beside him, "Behind that slope is the famous Lost Forest, and it is easy to get lost in it. ”

Xia Yu shook his head, indicating that he couldn't remember it at all. Just kidding, Xia Yu didn't come out of this forest at all, he just said that his experience was too terrifying, and no one believed it at all.
