"Hmm." Su Yu and the others nodded, and they all felt deeply.

Their team, because the level difference is too far, the speed of the journey cannot be improved, and it is not much faster than ordinary people, so they wandered in the forest for more than ten days and did not find a way out.

However, although this forest is vast, it is not as boundless as Kou Xiaowei said, of course, this "Lechuan River" surrounded by the "Tiankeng Forest" where newcomers live, but beyond the Lechuan River, the place where they are now is actually a forest, but the landform has changed a little, there are undulating mountains, and various branch rivers, just they look at it from a distance, they see a lot of towering mountains and tributaries of the "Lechuan River" like a slender white belt.

"Meng Ting, since you call it the 'Newcomer Forest' surrounded by the 'Lechuan River', what is the name of the place where we are now?" Su Yu smiled slightly and asked.

Meng Ting smiled sweetly: "The area where we are now is scattered with many small villages, and ours is one of them, this radius of about ten miles, basically belongs to the scope of our activities, and I also deliberately set up a stone monument boundary, but what is the name of this area...... It can be called a small village area, hehe, oh yes, I forgot to say, if you reach the fifth order, don't just go to the 'Tiankeng Forest' where those newcomers live, otherwise accidents are likely to happen. ”

Ah Da said: "Yes, in the 'Tiankeng Forest', it is a place where the activities of evolutionaries below the fifth order are protected and restricted, after the evolutionary reaches the fifth order, they must leave the 'Tiankeng Forest', and they can't stay there for a long time, if they casually shoot or destroy anything in the 'Tiankeng Forest', it is equivalent to violating the rules, and they will be severely punished, or even killed, Su Yu, you remember, after the fifth order, don't enter there casually." ”

Su Yu and the others had already heard Kou Xiaowei say about the relevant determination, and now seeing that Meng Ting and Ada, the others were very serious and reminded again, they all nodded, it seems that in this world, there are really such strange regulations, it turns out that in the "Tiankeng Forest" where newcomers live and cross, it is strictly forbidden for the existence of strong people of the fifth order or above, no wonder they have not encountered more powerful humans or monsters in the forest.

"Tiankeng Forest" was called "Newcomer Forest" by Meng Ting and others, this name is indeed more appropriate, and those who live there are basically newcomers, fourth-order, and they can almost be kings in it.

Walking and chatting along the way, Meng Ting talked about her village again, and then said proudly: "We all named the village 'Freedom Village', we all united together, worked hard to develop and increase our strength, and hoped to live better in such a cruel world, but we are all free, and the final result of our efforts is also to realize everyone's true freedom, and will no longer be bound by this world or any rules, this is the true meaning of the name 'Freedom Village'." ”

Su Yu slightly forehead, "Freedom Village"? Is there really complete freedom in this world?

"It's here, welcome to our 'Freedom Village'!" Meng Ting smiled, turned around, stretched out a hand, and made a gesture of welcome, at this moment, Su Yu, Qin Jiagui, Zhang Zhongmou, Ma Ziye, Fang Jiong and others all stopped together, and then looked at the "Freedom Village" in front of them.

The so-called "Freedom Village", built on the mountain, is facing a large rock erected, on the rock, is engraved with the three big characters of "Freedom Village", behind this rock, sparsely built by trees and large stones to build a mixture of simple houses, on the roof, covered with thick deciduous and withered grass, far more humble than the houses that everyone saw in the most remote villages in the original earth world.

This is the "Freedom Village"? Everyone looked at each other.

Meng Ting looked at everyone's expressions, her face was a little embarrassed, she coughed lightly, and then said: "Although it is very simple now, it will get better soon, our 'Freedom Village' is backed by the mountains, facing the 'Lechuan River', the terrain is very good, my ideal is to develop the 'Freedom Village' into the most powerful force in this area, absorb more people, and finally form a real town, becoming the tenth giant city in addition to the ten giant cities." ”

"Ten giant cities?" Su Yu asked curiously.

"Well, legend has it that in this world, there are ten cities that are so grand and huge that they are beyond imagination, known as the Ten Giant Cities, and they are the guardians of order in this world, but ...... I haven't seen it with my own eyes, I've heard it all happen. Meng Ting had a look of fascination on her face.

Su Yu bowed his head slightly, he kept these news in his heart one by one, at this moment, more than a dozen people walked out in front of him, the leader was the pale young man Zhang Huaqin, and most of the dozen or so people behind him were holding bamboo pockets woven with green vines and trees, and they were holding thick wooden sticks used as flat poles.

The dozen or so people who followed behind Zhang Huaqin were old and young, men and women, most of them were wearing leather armor made of monster skin, and some were wearing relatively tattered cloth clothes, Su Yu quietly sensed it, the strength of this group of people was not particularly strong, most of them were about the second order, and there were two third order.

When this group of people saw Meng Ting, they greeted them from afar.

"Sister Ting!"

"Boss!"

"Sister Tingting, you're also back."

Meng Ting nodded with a smile one by one, but after the group saw Ling Feng's corpse held by Meng Junheng, they immediately fell silent, but they didn't say anything, just restrained their smiles.

Meng Ting said to Zhang Huaqin: "Ziyu is guarding there, you guys should be careful on the road, you know?" ”

Zhang Huaqin nodded, hummed lightly, and left with a dozen people, heading to the valley to prepare to transport the energy stones back.

Qin Jiagui looked around, and suddenly said, "How many people are there in this 'Free Village' now. ”

Meng Ting said a little proudly: "Although the village has not been established for a long time, there are already forty-three people...... As soon as she said this, she suddenly remembered something, glanced at Meng Junheng and hugged Ling Feng, and changed her words: "No...... It's forty-two. ”

Qin Jiagui snorted and said, "Then how do you solve the problem of food?" Catch monsters and eat monster meat? ”

Meng Ting said: "This is also one of the food sources, and some are bought, and I am planning to grow them myself." ”

Qin Jiagui perked up and said, "Can you buy it?" Isn't it 'Time Coins'? Where is it? ”

Meng Ting didn't hide it either, and said, "Yes, you also know the 'Time Coin'?" The place where you can buy food is called 'Taoyuan Town', which is a fairly large-scale village developed, where people grow a lot of food and sell it to the outside world, and there are many such places, but the closest place to us is 'Taoyuan Town', which is about seven or eight days away, in fact, it is also the farthest place I have walked, and my purpose is to turn 'Freedom Village' into 'Freedom Town', and finally become 'Freedom City'...... Or even the 'Liberty Big City', hee-hee. ”

When Qin Jiagui heard her say this, a look of excitement appeared on his face, he slapped his palm, and muttered, "Great." Rubbing his palms, his face was full of excitement.

Zhang Zhongmou said curiously: "Qin Jiagui, what are you excited about?" ”

Qin Jiagui said: "Facing a big river here, the water source is not a problem, and there are rocks and trees here, if the food problem can also be solved, it is easy to develop, my favorite thing to play in the past is the game of town construction, building a village...... And it's still a reality, don't you think it's exciting? ”

Meng Ting's face showed joy and said, "Do you have a lot of research on this?" ”

Qin Jiagui said with a smile: "I can't say that there is much research, but it's nothing more than those few things, since we can't leave this world for a short time, we have to think about how to gain a foothold in this world, Miss Meng, building a village requires a certain amount of planning, but as long as there are various resources, everything else is easy to do." ”

Fang Jiong also looked excited, and muttered: "I think the first thing to get is to build a kitchen." Although the village has barely taken shape, the blood of the chef in his body has begun to boil.

While he was talking, an old man with short and fat hair rushed out of one of the simple rooms made of stones, and shouted at Meng Ting from afar: "Xiaoting, have all the power stones been transported back?" How many did you find this time? The last time you found it, it's all gone. ”

"Uncle Shang, don't worry, the amount brought back this time is enough to take care of half a year."

The short and fat old man perked up, and looked at Su Yu and the others again: "Are these newcomers?" Yes, yes, there are more and more people, and our 'Freedom Village' is getting better and better. ”

Meng Ting introduced to Su Yu and the others: "This is Uncle Shang, the leather clothes and leather armor we wear were all invented by him, and his ability and casting are related, the future position is the chief casting master in our 'Free City', hehe, we are looking for the power stone of the fire element this time, because Uncle Shang plans to cast some equipment armor and the like, and when the time comes, it can be sold for a good price." ”

Su Yu smiled and nodded to the old man called Shangqi and said, "Hello Uncle Shang, my name is Su Yu." ”

Then he was about to introduce it to others, and this strange-named merchant uncle waved his hand impatiently: "Okay, okay, there are so many people, I can't remember the name...... Oh, you've got a secret treasure on you, tsk......"

Suddenly noticed the "Earth Thorn Ring" on Su Yu's right hand, and showed an excited look on his face, and said: "As long as the conditions permit, the equipment I have created is successful, and I can also upgrade the level of this kind of secret treasure, but it's a pity that ......"

"Uncle Shang, what is the pity?" Su Yu's heart moved.

"It's a pity that it will take a while to get it out, and I have to get a secret treasure to try it out, and I can't guarantee that I will succeed the first time, but it's a pity." The merchant rubbed his hands, and it was a pity.
