Chapter 35: Being Blocked

Ye Li took a step forward, pulled Mr. Xu aside and asked, "Mr. Xu, you are a doctor, right?"

"Yeah," Mr. Xu nodded, feeling puzzled.

"So, are your medical skills very impressive?"

"It's okay." Old Xu raised his gray eyebrows.

"Can you treat the child?"

Mr. Xu smiled and said, "What a coincidence! I originally studied pediatrics. Who is sick?"

"My children, they are sick!"

"Oh, you have a child? I can't tell, I thought you were just a little girl."

"I just look alike," Ye Li immediately told Mr. Xu about Xiaomu and Xixi's illnesses.

Mr. Xu thought for a moment and said, "I have a rough idea of ​​what the situation is, but I have to wait and see for details. Where is your child?"

"They are where I live, naturally."

At this time, Qi Yuanchuan came over and frowned, saying, "So, everything you said before was false?"

"I, I..." Ye Li argued, "Who knows if you are good or bad? I have a child, so of course I have to be cautious."

"Believe it or not, I'll kill you right now!" Qi Yuanchuan stared at Ye Li sinisterly and said, "Tell me everything about who you are!"

Ye Li was frightened. The middle-aged strong man in front of her had a full beard and muscles as strong as steel. When he stood up, he was more than two heads taller than her. Compared with the bearded Wang Dahu she knew before, Wang Dahu was so much kind!

"Uncle," Ye Li said with a sad face, "What I said before wasn't entirely false. I really am not from either side. I'm just a single mother with two children. If the children weren't sick, I wouldn't have come so far. I really don't mean any harm."

"Haha..." Mr. Xu laughed while holding his stomach. "What uncle? He's only a few years older than you."

Ye Li knelt down before Elder Xu with a thud, then kowtowed heavily and said, "Whether you are an uncle or a brother, human life is at stake. Please let Elder Xu return with me and help treat my child's illness. I will never forget your kindness."

Elder Xu quickly helped Ye Li up and said, "Why are you kneeling to him? I'm the one who can heal, not him. You saved my life, so of course I'll repay you. By the way, little girl, I don't even know your name yet."

"My name is Ye Li, Ye as in leaf, Li as in chestnut."

"Ye Li?" Old Xu said with a smile, "Come, let's go to the study next door. Tell me about the child's condition so I can have a better idea."

study.

Ye Li told Mr. Xu everything about Xiaomu and Xixi's illness.

During this time, Qi Yuanchuan led people to clean up the ward. He stood by the door, occasionally looking sideways into the study, as if he was wary of something.

"I have a general idea in mind, but I have to wait until I see the patient to confirm it. Where is your child now?" asked Mr. Xu.

Ye Li paused, then said, "In a building in the city."

"How can that be possible?" Old Xu was very worried. "The city is full of zombies right now. If you leave them alone, wouldn't it be very dangerous? Or is the child's father also with them?"

"No, not Dad, only them," Ye Li's face turned pale. Did she think the safe house was too safe? What if a zombie ran into the house? How old were Xiaomu and Xixi? How would they resist the zombies?

"You little girl," Mr. Xu sighed, "How old are they?"

"In two months, he will be five years old."

"Such a young child! No way, you lead the way, I'll follow you now." Mr. Xu stood up and said, "I'll go get my medicine box first, you get ready, we'll set off right away."

"Okay," Ye Li also stood up: "Thank you, Doctor Xu."

"Don't be so polite. Just call me Mr. Xu like everyone else."

Ye Li and Mr. Xu left the study and were blocked in the corridor.
