Chapter 148: Fear

The old man shouted angrily to the uncle: “Xiao Tu, give me the money and meat from killing the monster.”

The uncle who thanked Lu Jiu looked apologetic, then turned around and replied, “Dad, we killed several monsters, got rabbit meat, and still have money.”

This uncle seems to be a filial son and gives all the rewards directly to the old man. The world has changed drastically, and they rely on killing these wild monsters to get food.

As for money, since the system prompts it as currency, it will come in handy sometimes.

Now they can’t do it without food. Everyone wants to rush, but they can’t do it if they don’t have enough physical strength.

The old man snorted from the end of his nose and grabbed the copper coin roughly, leaving Lu Jiu dumbfounded.

The old man collected the money and looked at Lu Jiu and the others with a critical look: “Who are these two people?”

The uncle turned around and introduced to his father: “These two helped kill the monster, otherwise I might have been bitten several more times, and it would take a long time to recover.”

Having said that, the old man didn’t look grateful at all. Instead, he looked at them with disgust: “I see there are dozens of monsters, why do you only give me such a small amount of money?”

These days, he almost had an idea of how many copper coins each wild monster could produce.

“Because I only killed a few today…” Before the uncle could finish his explanation, the old man interrupted him forcefully and pointed at Lu Jiu and Shen Jufeng: “They must have robbed a lot of monsters.”

Lu Jiu was stunned. She was just helping out of kindness. How could she suddenly become a robber?

The uncle quickly stopped his father’s behavior, “Dad, don’t be like this, they are here to help.”

The old man refused to give up and cursed angrily: “We didn’t ask them to help! I’m sure they’re here to rob us. There are so many of us just hoping to eat a few rabbits.”

Lu Jiu hadn’t encountered strange people before, but this was the first time she had seen one so unreasonable. She slowly frowned when she saw this.

Shen Jufeng stared at the old man so hard that he almost felt guilty. In the end, the old man ignored him and seemed to be howling at his son, but he was shouting at them: “I don’t care, you go and get the things back. Otherwise, I won’t live anymore!”

The uncle showed a troubled expression: “Dad, that was a wild monster that someone else killed. How can we take it?”

Lu Jiu heard Shen Jufeng say coldly: “If you don’t want to die, I can help you.”

She turned to look at Shen Jufeng and saw the corners of his mouth raised. His eyes were full of coldness, and judging from his tone, he was most likely serious.

It turns out that her teammate who has always been gentle and gentle still has such a side.

Somehow, she quietly grasped her weapon but did not dare to move.

These words shocked the group of people opposite. The old man was like a duck being strangled by the neck. Nothing could be said in his throat, and his face turned red.

At this time, the uncle calmed down, and his face became not so pretty at this time: “This young man, we are very grateful for your help, but how can you say that about my dad.”

The smile on Shen Jufeng’s lips quickly faded, giving people a strong sense of oppression, “The wild monsters we kill are ours. Don’t sing with your father and think about getting them from us.”

This meant that the uncle was playing a scene with his father. Lu Jiu immediately looked at the uncle, who had a very awkward expression on his face.

“My dad just doesn’t have a good temper. I’m sorry, but I won’t ask for your things. You two seem to be very strong. How could you deliberately snatch rewards?”

Lu Jiu felt strange when she heard what he said. It didn’t sound like an apology, but rather like starting a fight.

As expected, other people began to be dissatisfied. One of the young men pointed at them and said: “You are well-dressed, you don’t look like us, but you are not willing to give us such a small amount of money or meat.”

“Looking at you two young people, you are so good at fighting, unlike us old people.” The speaker was an old woman.

“That’s right…”

Even though Lu Jiu was innocent, she still felt their malice. There was also the uncle who just stood there without saying a word. She felt angry. She should have let the rabbit bite him hard just now!

“Shen Jufeng…” She grabbed the shirt of her teammate next to her and wanted to tell him to leave together and leave this group of people alone.

As a result, she saw the other party take out a dagger, and then looked at her with cold eyes, “It’s okay, just stand here.”

After saying that, he quickly walked towards the group of people with the dagger in his hand. Although there were more people in the group, he unconsciously stepped back when he saw Shen Jufeng walking alone.

This dagger was obtained when killing ordinary enhanced wild monsters.

The young men were a little frightened. They had no weapons, and it was difficult to even cook and light a fire, let alone fight someone with a dagger.

However, a young man stood up and said: “What are you afraid of? There are so many of us. If we defeat him, that dagger would be ours.”

A knife was a valuable weapon here.

At this time, several people stepped forward and looked at Shen Jufeng with malice.

Several people rushed forward, and Lu Jiu almost took out her Divine Bow, but Shen Jufeng’s next action made her give up the idea.

Shen Jufeng raised his hand and stabbed the young man in the front with a dagger. The knife flashed past, and the clothes on the man’s chest were cut, and the wound healed quickly.

This time he dealt more than 60 points of damage.

It also seemed to hit several other people in the heart, causing their attacking movements to stall. However, Shen Jufeng showed no mercy and stabbed several people in a row.

Looking at their HP loss, those people hurriedly retreated.

Lu Jiu looked at the opponent’s fierce movements and touched her hand uneasily. Shen Jufeng already knew that she was a pioneer player and that the equipment she had must be better.

Would it be possible that one day he would stab herself with that dagger?

But thinking about the past few days of getting along with him, he has always been pretty good to him. He always leaves half of the monsters for her to kill. After that, he didn’t ask her much about the game.

But she still needs to be cautious.

The one-sided crushing battle over there ended with the young men retreating into the crowd, and Shen Jufeng’s eyes fell on the old man.

He also showed a rather evil smile, which almost scared the old man to death.

But Lu Jiu, who was looking at Shen Jufeng’s back, didn’t see that expression.

The uncle looked at Shen Jufeng, then at Lu Jiu behind him, and apologized quickly, “I’m sorry, you young people are energetic. It was our fault. We will leave immediately.”

The old man no longer had the air of asking for guilt. He hunched his shoulders and left quickly with the help of the uncle. A group of people all tightened their bodies when passing by Shen Jufeng.

When the uncle passed by Lu Jiu, he said softly in a voice that only the two of them could hear, “Miss, you have to be careful about your teammate.”

But Shen Jufeng was holding the blade of the dagger indifferently. His expression did not change after seeing the uncle stretch out his head and say a sentence.

He was very interested in the game Lu Jiu talked about, but the other party never mentioned the game again after she talked about it last time.

He has been thinking about whether to cooperate with this girl or……

However, he thought cooperating would be much better. The other party was a pioneer player, and he could not predict what equipment she had in her backpack.

Moreover, the other party has a very good personality and is not the kind of person who stabs her teammates in the back.
