Chapter 147 Memories Begin
Lu Jiu clenched her hands. After listening to Shen Jufeng's words, she had a sudden realization in her heart. Whether it was a peaceful society before the end of the world or in the game world, the evil people would never hurt you just because you are kind and want to live a stable life.
Li Aoting agreed with Shen Jufeng's words, "This is the best solution at the moment. Simply taking a soft approach will not deter the other party."
"That's true. Don't let go of people like this if you meet them next time."
Shen Jufeng ignored the discussion of others. He knew that everyone was just an ordinary person, and they all obeyed the law but had a heart that yearned for peace.
Killing one's own kind is a hurdle that many ordinary people would not be able to overcome immediately, including himself. When he first subdued You Xiaoyu and others, he did not think of killing them directly.
As for what You Xiaoyu said before, only some equipment would be dropped from killing players, Shen Jufeng didn't believe it. When the woman said this, she didn't dare to look at them directly, her eyes were dazed, and it was obvious that she was lying.
At that time, he was too lazy to care about these things.
While the people in the room were still discussing, Yao Bing'an was looking at her emails. There was an email in which He Ange passed the position of city lord to her before his death.
She didn't hesitate and chose to refuse.
She didn't understand why He Ange passed the city lordship to her, and didn't want to find out the reason.

In the end, everyone went home quietly. No matter whether the people who escaped from Longjiao City would tell others about this matter, they would insist on keeping it secret.
Lu Jiu was still absent-minded on the way back. When she was almost home, she stopped and asked Shen Jufeng, "I should have killed You Xiaoyu and the others directly. Maybe I should have adapted to this environment right from the beginning."
Shen Jufeng paused, then lowered his eyes and thought for a while, "If you had killed them without hesitation, I would have been surprised."
Lu Jiu looked at him suspiciously, and Shen Jufeng continued, "You've always been a little naive, but fortunately, you will grow up. You can tell from your reflection on what happened before. You Xiaoyu and the others lied about killing players to obtain all the supplies, but it's true that they killed them in retaliation. But now that you've become disgusted, you must understand one thing: those who kill will be killed."
Lu Jiu had a look of having learned a lesson. "But I still regret it. I should have been more ruthless back then. I can't always keep the mentality that I can live a peaceful life without being disturbed by others."
She now understood that as the city lord, she had to protect her city and her own safety without going through the baptism of blood.
Fighting wild monsters is secondary; fighting with people is what needs the most attention.
Shen Jufeng looked at her like this and chuckled, "I still remember when you first met me. I remember you were a little wary at that time, although you tried your best to pretend that you didn't care."
The two of them made a deal after their initial meeting, and after the deal was completed, they felt that each other was strong enough to travel together.
Shen Jufeng still remembered that Lu Jiu was not so wary of him at the beginning, probably because he already had a profession and good skills, and he was generous enough to tell her all his skills at that time.
This behavior eliminated some of her vigilance. Secondly, Lu Jiu always had a relatively peaceful attitude of "I won't mess with you, and you don't mess with me."
However, the most important reason for them to travel together is that wild monsters appear in groups, and there will not be a single wild monster just because they are traveling alone.
Normal levels were easy to deal with, but what he was worried about at the time was what to do if he encountered higher-level monsters in the future, and whether he could really deal with them all by himself.

Half a year ago.
After all the buildings disappeared, they had no place to live, and Lu Jiu and Shen Jufeng walked aimlessly.
After changing into the clothes produced by the system, I didn’t feel that hot even with the scorching sun on my head.
After Lu Jiu and Shen Jufeng saw each other's skills, they began to worry about what to do now. Lu Jiu thought for a moment and said, "We should go find a civil servant."
This is the decision every ordinary person would make when faced with danger or insecurity.
Shen Jufeng reminded her, "The civil servants may not be able to help. You have to know that everything that belongs to Earth has disappeared. Now we have to rely on our bare hands to fight monsters. Besides, there are only trees everywhere here. You need to look for signs to find your way, but now all of them are gone."
Lu Jiu was quite depressed and dejected. "If I can't ask the government officials for help, then where are we going to live now? Do we have to cut down trees and build a house ourselves? I don't know how to do this."
Not to mention that she can't do these jobs, she doesn't even have the relevant knowledge.
When Shen Jufeng heard her say that she was building a house, he looked up at the giant tree that towered into the sky. Such a thick and tall tree was difficult to cut down before, and now they didn't even have the tools, so forget it.
"Take one step at a time and see what happens. It's no use staying in the same place all the time."
I don’t know what their thoughts were, but the two of them felt that they couldn’t stay in one place and had to keep moving, like it was an instinct.
While they were on the road, they saw some spots of light, which gradually became fewer and fewer. Lu Jiu did not choose to leave any for others, but collected them all for himself.
After that they saw no more colored spots of light, only white.
In the wild, the most common creatures they encountered were red-eyed rabbits, followed by other types of wild monsters.
During this period, Lu Jiu always felt that Shen Jufeng was a good teammate, except that his expression was particularly cold when killing wild monsters.
Since they teamed up after the last transaction, they haven't met anyone else until today, when they finally saw groups of people. At a rough glance, there were about fifty or sixty people, and it seemed that everyone chose to go together.
When these people saw this, they were being stopped by a group of more than 20 red-eyed rabbits.
There were clearly fifty or sixty people, but only seven or eight were fighting at the front, while the others were huddled at the back and were unwilling to get close.
Lu Jiu didn't hesitate and went forward to help.
A red-eyed rabbit jumped up and tried to bite the person in front of it, but was kicked away by a foot that appeared next to it, causing the wild monster to cry out in pain.
Seeing someone help, everyone noticed that there were two people.
"Thank you." The frightened uncle thanked her.
Lu Jiu smiled and said, "It's okay, let's quickly deal with these rabbits."
Seeing that his temporary teammate had already joined in, Shen Jufeng could no longer just stand by and watch, so he joined in to help.
Although both were fighting with bare hands, Lu Jiu and Shen Jufeng inflicted higher damage, and in a short while, dozens of red-eyed rabbits were wiped out.
Because they contributed the most, the rewards for killing the rabbits went into their backpacks.
After the job was done, the uncle who had been helped by Lu Jiu came forward and said, "Thank you for your help. If it weren't for this little girl, I would have been bitten by the rabbit just now."
What people lose now when bitten is their qi and blood. Qi and blood are life. They have watched people disappear due to the exhaustion of qi and blood.
Lu Jiu just waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I just happened to see it."
Shen Jufeng didn't say anything beside him, just watching the people who were hiding behind the uncle walk over.
The one walking in front was an old man. Unlike his panicked expression just now, now that all the red-eyed rabbits had been eliminated, he put on a serious expression.
