Chapter 18 She Has Another Dog Outside
"You're an adult? Older than me?"
A look of surprise flashed across Xiao Moqiong's eyes, as if the sky had fallen.
He is only seventeen years old this year, one year away from adulthood.
In contrast, Meng Xiaoyou is delicate and young-looking, with a fair and tender face full of collagen and a bit of baby fat, making it impossible to guess her exact age.
The pretty girl is older than him!
Seeing his appearance, Meng Xiaoyou straightened her back.
She's a grown mushroom!
"My name is Meng Xiaoyou. You're here looking for medicine too, right? I'm looking for some to nourish my body, but I don't know much about them. Could you help me find some?"
Getting back to the point, the cowardly mushroom won't save people for nothing; if she does, she'll exploit them.
She's so smart, I wish someone would praise her.
Unfortunately, Pei Sinian... oh wait, no, the human Pei Sinian isn't here.
Whether that frail, helpless human being can survive the apocalypse depends on her.
Meng Xiaoyou was full of energy and directed Xiao Moqiong to find medicine.
This put Xiao Moqiong in a difficult position. He walked ahead cautiously and said to Meng Xiaoyou, "It's best to nourish the body with food, such as meat, fruits and vegetables... It's not good to use medicine, as all medicines have some toxicity."
After he finished speaking, he realized something was wrong. This was the apocalypse; there was no meat left. But Meng Xiaoyou kept it in mind, thinking that she would bring more meat when she went hunting in the future.
"Is there any medicine that can treat cardiac arrest?"
"Oh, this is emergency heart medicine. Let's go find it later."
The empty hospital corridor was filled only with the sound of two footsteps. On the ground were the remains of zombies and some human blood, a testament to a major battle that had taken place here.
They searched cautiously. Xiao Moqiong picked up a mop handle and killed any zombies he encountered around the corner with it. Meng Xiaoyou exclaimed with admiration, "You're so strong!"
Xiao Moqiong sighed: "If he wasn't old, he would have been beaten to death when he was in school."
When he was in elementary school, other kids laughed at him for not having parents. In junior high, he even formed cliques and did dirty tricks behind the teachers' backs.
He was surrounded and beaten in the toilet, with no one to turn to for help, and he could only rely on himself.
However, those were all minor incidents, nothing compared to the zombies that eat human flesh in the apocalypse.
He sighed softly, "When will this end? By the way, are you living alone? Or were you abandoned by the team? I'm from the suburbs. Someone in the team got injured, so I came to the hospital to get gauze and hemostatic medicine."
Meng Xiaoyou: "I have another friend who is in poor health and is now hiding in the library to survive. You are from the suburbs. I heard there is a very impressive base there that takes in humans. Are you from the base?"
After searching for a long time, the two finally found the medicine room. Xiao Moqiong first found a bottle of heart medicine for her. "We are not from the base. To go to the base, we need to hand over supplies. The boss said that handing over supplies is not as good as going it alone, so we stayed in a mountain villa in the suburbs. There are few people and few zombies there."
"Oh, I see! I thought you were from the base." Meng Xiaoyou took the bottle and shook it, looking somewhat disappointed.
If it's a base, she can just set up a connection.
Xiao Moqiong scratched his head and continued searching for medicine.
"What's so great about the base? Don't be fooled by the fact that they build a safe base; I've heard that the security situation is actually quite bad."
He found the hemostatic medicine and some cold medicine, and didn't forget to give Meng Xiaoyou two boxes, "Take these, these are for treating illnesses too, the usage and book title are written on them, here..."
He pointed to the medicine's effects, saying, "It can be used for headaches and high fevers. Take as much as you can, just in case."
Meng Xiaoyou suddenly understood, and without hesitation, she stuffed everything into the bubble space. Xiao Moqiong was dumbfounded, "Wait, where did you hide all of this? The legendary mustard seed space?"
She didn't understand what rings were, but she knew she was so amazing that she had blinded Xiao Moqiong's titanium alloy eyes, so she straightened her back smugly.
She nodded reservedly, mimicking Pei Sinian's manner.
As expected, Xiao Moqiong lived up to expectations, giving a thumbs up in admiration, "Amazing, my sister... oops, my older sister."
He calls her "sister"!
The timid mushroom, hiding its purple umbrella, swayed its purple cap, feeling quite pleased with itself.
Oh, I deserve it!
Putting aside her useless mind-reading ability, she's really amazing that this space can store supplies in the apocalypse.
They returned laden with their loot, and as they parted, Xiao Moqiong repeatedly asked, "Are you really not coming with us? You can bring your friend along."
If they could recruit a spatial ability user, their manor would definitely make a profit.
In the past, Meng Xiaoyou would have gone to crowded places without hesitation, but now, there is a patient at home who is crying for food and whose heartbeat may stop at the slightest provocation.
Meng Xiaoyou shook her head. "No."
Xiao Moqiong was somewhat disappointed. He lifted the bag in his hand and said, "Alright, we'll be in the wholesale market on the far east side of Y City. We'll need to reorganize for two days before we return to the suburbs. Think it over. Also, regarding your spatial ability, don't expose it until you're able to protect yourself."
Meng Xiaoyou understood.
I can't reveal my abilities, or I might run into bad guys.
The two parted ways. Meng Xiaoyou used a small bubble to find the lame zombie. The mushroom and the zombie met and returned to the library.
The zombie still remembered the midnight snack incident and kept muttering to himself about cooking instant noodles.
He hadn't had a hot meal in a long time.
Meng Xiaoyou nodded, told it to wait outside, patted her chest to assure it she would come out soon, and then rushed excitedly into the house.
"Pei Sinian! I'm back!"
Pei Sinian was engrossed in his book when he heard this. He glanced over indifferently, giving the little reserve a barely perceptible once-over, and noticed that the little reserve was overly excited, circling around him as soon as he entered the room.
Suddenly, a strange scent entered my nostrils.
Pei Sinian narrowed his eyes dangerously, grabbed Meng Xiaoyou's wrist, lowered his head, and sniffed the back of her hand with the tip of his nose.
"What are you doing?" Meng Xiaoyou was forced to quiet down. She sniffed herself, mimicking his gesture, but found no scent. She blinked. "You look like a dog!"
What are you smelling?
