Chapter 111: The Scared Child

Lu Jiu remembered the prompts from the system. At that time, she was still a little scared, such as a sudden big hailstorm or a flood in this ghost world, but so far it was quite normal.

“It’s just fog, and the visibility is not bad. When you go out today, you should pay more attention to your surroundings, and don’t ignore the wild monsters that suddenly appear.” Shen Jufeng said calmly.

He ate with a dignified appearance as if he was eating some high-end food.

Lu Jiu was still chewing on rice balls. She nodded her head seriously when she heard what he said, and said vaguely: “That’s right, you should be more careful in this foggy day.”

She didn’t think about how to pay attention to the wild monsters that suddenly attacked. Anyway, there was Shen Jufeng, a living radar. His sensitivity was very high, and he often reminded them of some crises.

She wanted to take advantage of the foggy weather to go to the canopy of the giant tree to take a look. Last night, she installed two fifth-level gems on her wings.

The residents who came out early to collect food were still distributed in the fields, and among them were quite a few children. At this age in the Earth age, they would not be able to sleep on the bed. Their parents will wake them up to go to school.

Right now, they can only collect food to prepare for the next unknown winter.

Due to the drop in temperature, the soft and rotten fallen leaves were frosted and creaked when stepped on. This was the chill that Lu Jiu only felt in early winter.

“Everything will freeze like this in about 20 days.” She said while paying attention to her feet. It would be better not to step on this kind of frozen and brittle fallen leaves, so as not to attract many wild monsters.

Today, they want to fight against a few wild monsters to get familiar with the foggy environment.

Zhuang Yun has already taken out his shield, looking around, alert to the crisis that may appear at any time.

Shen Jufeng also took out his long sword: “That’s why we have to come out to collect more furs and sell them to tailors, so ordinary residents can also buy winter clothes.”

Zhuang Yun suddenly felt that Shen Jufeng was a kind-hearted person who was cold on the outside and warm on the inside. He was thinking about the ordinary residents in the city who didn’t have a blood relationship with him or reasons.

Lu Jiu knew what he meant, it was to let her focus on clearing the wilderness so that the residents in the city would have a greater chance of surviving in winter.

Damn, she has sent several collection teams to distant places and also established transmission channels to save time to collect more food, fruits, and vegetables, as well as firewood for heating.

Even the mining team has added two more, specifically to find flammable coal mines. Although she doesn’t know if there will be such a thing in this game world, she still tried.

The three of them proceeded cautiously and soon encountered three sheep-type wild monsters, and they dealt with them one by one. Fortunately, the visibility today was about 100 meters, and it was easy to find the wild monsters attacking.

Although they encountered a few large numbers of wild monsters this morning, none of them were in danger.

At this time, they couldn’t help but sigh. It was much more difficult to go out to clear the field in abnormal weather. Fortunately, they have rich experience.

They decided to have lunch in the wild. To be on the safe side, they set up a tent as a garrison. At least in an emergency, this tent can also withstand the offensive of wild monsters and give them time to recover and prepare for the battle.

Zhuang Yun was preparing lunch in the tent. The weather was getting colder and colder. Everyone was less willing to eat ready-to-eat food and prefers to eat freshly made hot food.

The battle this morning made Lu Jiu, who was afraid of the cold, sweat. She wiped the sweat from her forehead and said to her two teammates: “I’ll go to the lake over there to wash my face, and I’ll be back in a while.”

Zhuang Yun was a little worried, “Why don’t we accompany you? It’s a foggy day after all.”

Lu Jiu waved her hand: “It’s okay, I’ll just wash my face. Even if I encounter wild monsters, I will put on my wings and fly back first, nothing will happen.”

She went this way specifically because there was a lake, and she could have an excuse to go to the lake so that she could act alone.

Shen Jufeng understood her intention, and said lightly to Zhuang Yun: “It’s okay, if I she doesn’t come back in five minutes, I’ll go find her.”

Zhuang Yun felt relieved and continued to cook.

After being free, Lu Jiu ran outside briskly, and could immediately find out whether there was anything on the top of the giant tree.

She came to the edge of the lake, the breeze blew up the waves, the waves in the middle of the lake gradually advanced to the shore, and water vapor rose on the surface of the lake.

Lu Jiu wanted to wash her face. She squatted down, scooped up clear water, and washed it. The water was very cold, and when it touched her face, her already hot face quickly cooled down, and even her body also infiltrated some cold air.

She shook her hands and stood up after washing: “Wow, it’s so cold.”

It was heartbreaking.

After washing her face, she started to get down to business. She didn’t know what was going on in other places, but there were giant trees everywhere in Yangshan City.

After she equipped the wings, she flew herself up. Seeing herself getting farther and farther from the ground, Lu Jiu was still a little excited. She was not very tall, so she liked to fly in the air wearing wings.

It was like her dream to fly in the air during her childhood come true.

These giant trees were much taller than those at the beginning of the end of the day. She flew to the highest point and finally entered the inside of the canopy wrapped in layers of yellowed autumn leaves.

Seeing the situation inside, her eyes widened.

Qiuyu City in the north was just next to Yangshan City. It was also considered a good place with outstanding mountains and lands, and some of them are famous scenic spots in China.

The residents of the city-state here were like everyone else, either working in the fields or fighting hard to kill wild monsters in the wild.

A child who was humming and gathering in the field stayed here alone. At this time, many residents returned home for lunch, and a few people used ready-to-eat food for lunch to collect more food.

This child was also in the same situation. There was no professional player in their family, so the whole family can only gather more food in the field together.

It was foggy today, and he couldn’t see people in other fields a hundred meters away. He just kept his head busy with his work. After a while, he seemed to hear something.

The child raised his head and looked around, but there was nothing. He felt a little strange in his heart, but he still lowered his head and continued.

After a while there seemed to be something flapping the fan, the child stood up this time and walked to the side: “Is anyone there?”

No one answered him. To collect more food, he came to this land at the edge of many fields, and many people collected in fields closer to the city-state.

The child scratched his head, thinking that he might have misheard, so he squatted down on the spot to collect.

But at this moment, there was darkness above his head, as if something was blocking the light above his head. The child got up and raised his head to squint to see what it was.

Seeing that the top of the head was covered with darkness, and this “black cloud” was still moving, the child screamed in shock and ran towards the city-state.

He didn’t know what it was, whether it was a black cloud or some large flying wild monster, he just wanted to get out of there quickly.

He doesn’t know if it was an illusion, but the sounds of flapping fans were getting closer and closer, which were the strange sounds he heard before.

He mustered up the courage to look up and found that the dark “black cloud” was getting closer, and this “black cloud” was descending!

“Help! Mom! Dad!” The child was scared out of his wits and finally shouted to his parents.

The sound got closer, and his calf ran faster as if he wanted to unleash his potential. Fortunately, his parents just bought him a new pair of shoes two days ago, and these shoes were for acceleration.
