Chapter 18 Do You Have Medicine?
"Um, Yang Qing, I want to ask you for help with something." Li Shengnan suddenly said.
"What's the matter?" Yang Qing looked at her.
"I want to borrow your rubber boat. I want to go back home and visit my parents." Li Shengnan put down her chopsticks, a trace of worry on her face. "Now there's no internet and communication is cut off. I don't know how they are doing. I'm worried..."
Yang Qing was silent for a moment, then nodded, "Okay!"
"Really?" Li Shengnan was overjoyed, thinking that Yang Qing would not agree.
After all, it is the end of the world and there are huge floods. The rubber boat is the most useful tool. I didn't expect her to be willing to lend it to me.
Yang Qing pursed her lips and said, "If my parents were still alive, I would go find them too."
Leng Yi heard this and glanced at Yang Qing.
Li Shengnan pursed her lips. "Don't worry, Yang Qing. I will definitely return the rubber boat to you intact. As long as I find my parents and take care of them, I will definitely come back!"
Yang Qing nodded. She still believed in Li Shengnan's character. If it weren't for the end of the world, she would be a good police officer.
"Then, how about I go with you?" Wang Min said. She was worried that Li Shengnan would be in danger if she went alone. "I can swim, maybe I can help you."
Li Shengnan hesitated, she felt that it might be more convenient for her to be alone.
Yang Qing said, "Why don't you take Wang Min with you? She's more attentive, and if anything happens to your parents, she might be able to help. It's a mess out there right now, with robbers everywhere. One more person means more strength."
In the previous life, she had been with Wang Min for a long time. Although she was usually quiet, she was determined and would not let down at critical moments.
"Okay, thank you for your help!" Li Shengnan said to Wang Min.
"We're all sisters, what's the trouble?" Wang Min smiled. "If my parents were here, I believe you would help me too!"
Li Shengnan nodded. Thinking that Wang Min's father died in this apocalypse, she couldn't help but worry about the safety of her own parents.
After dinner, Leng Yi took Xiaoxue back to his home, and Lu Lin cleaned up the dishes.
Yang Qing took out a Tang sword and a dagger and gave them to Li Shengnan and Wang Min, "Take these with you and be careful on the road!"
"Thank you!" Li Shengnan took the knife and dagger. "No matter what the result is, I will come back."
If you borrow something from her, you must give her an explanation.
"Okay!" Yang Qing nodded.
Even if they didn't come back, she wouldn't blame her. There were too many unexpected events in this apocalypse. If her parents needed her for something, it would be understandable if she couldn't come back.
Li Shengnan went to the eighth floor to drag down the rubber boat and took Wang Min downstairs with her.
Yang Qing looked down from the window and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw them come out and get on the rubber boat.
Those people didn't rob the rubber boat. They were probably a little afraid of Li Shengnan's identity. She was a police officer and had some kung fu skills, and they also had knives in their hands.
"There is still some duck meat and soup left, so we can have a meal tonight." Lu Lin said to Yang Qing with a smile.
Yang Qing teased, "I have so many good things in my space, but none of them are as delicious as this duck?"
"How can it be the same? I made this myself. Those fast foods can't compare." Lu Lin pouted and lowered her voice. "I didn't even dare open the window when I was cooking at noon. I was afraid that the aroma would get out and others would know we had meat to eat. Wouldn't they be jealous to death?"
Lu Lin said as she opened the window a crack, "Let the smell dissipate slowly now, it won't be so noticeable."
Yang Qing raised his eyebrows. Lu Lin was quite attentive.
That’s right, otherwise he wouldn’t have lived with me for so long in his previous life.
After dinner in the evening, Yang Qing and Lu Lin huddled in the room watching a TV series. Suddenly, Aqi next to them stood up and shouted at the door.
Yang Qing stopped the tablet and listened carefully, "Someone seems to be knocking on the door?"
"It seems so!" Lu Lin nodded.
Yang Qing stood up and said, "I'll go take a look."
He took out a pistol from the space and put it on his waist.
When I opened the door and looked down, I saw a middle-aged man standing outside the security door with an anxious look on his face.
Yang Qing knew him. He was an owner on the fifth floor. Sometimes they would meet him when he came home from get off work and they would often say hello.
"What do you want?" Yang Qing walked to the security door.
"Um..." The middle-aged man was a little embarrassed. "Do you have any medicine at home? My father is sick, and there is no way to send him to the hospital in this situation. I don't know if the hospital is still open."
"I can trade something with you." The middle-aged man said hurriedly, pulling out a tube of noodles from his clothes. He looked around to make sure no one was around, then lowered his voice and said, "This is noodles, a full pound."
Yang Qing raised her eyebrows. Although she had no shortage of food, instant noodles were indeed very valuable at this time.
"Who is your father?" Yang Qing hesitated. She didn't want anyone to know that she had the medicine. She wanted to see if this person was worth saving.
"My father is Teacher Zhang, the one who often teaches people to read in the community. I wonder if you know him? I am his son, my name is Zhang Nian." Zhang Nian said.
Yang Qing suddenly remembered that he was an enthusiastic old man and all the children in the community liked him very much.
In her previous life, she once went out to find food and came back injured. She almost fainted when climbing the stairs, and it was Teacher Zhang who helped her bandage the wound.
But later she and Lu Lin went out to find a survival base and never saw him again.
"Teacher Zhang, what's wrong with you? I don't know if I have the right medicine at home." Yang Qing said.
When Zhang Nian heard there was hope, he immediately said, "My dad might have eaten something unclean. He's vomiting and having diarrhea, and he's a little dehydrated."
Yang Qing nodded, it should be acute gastroenteritis, just take some antidiarrheal medicine and some anti-inflammatory medicine.
"Wait a minute."
Yang Qing went upstairs and pretended to go into the room to get medicine. She took the medicine out from the space in the living room and cut off three days' supply of medicine with scissors to make it seem like she didn't have much medicine.
He went downstairs, opened the door, and gave the medicine to Zhang Nian. "Take these medicines. Don't tell anyone that you took them from me."
"I understand, I understand." Zhang Nian was filled with gratitude and stuffed the noodles into Yang Qing's hands. "Thank you so much!"
"Let Teacher Zhang have a good rest. Don't drink raw water. The water must be boiled before drinking." Yang Qing reminded.
"Okay, we will definitely pay attention." Zhang Nian clasped his hands together and walked away, thanking him profusely.
Yang Qing returned to the room, and Lu Lin asked, "Who is it?"
"He was a retired teacher on the fifth floor. He fell ill and I gave him some medicine." Yang Qing replied.
"Is it okay?" Lu Lin frowned. "What if they tell others that we have medicine and someone comes to steal it?"
"They shouldn't. Besides, they know we have something here. If they dare to come up, they should think about whether they can get down alive." Yang Qing snorted coldly.
Lu Lin smiled and said, "That's right. Those people have been coveting their things for a long time. If they dare to come and rob them, they will never come back."
