Yin Hua could accept that her hope of survival was fading away, but Xia Wenhua could not.
She and Pei Songbai personally drove the Huang couple out of the hospital. As the Huang couple left, Yun Wenxia naturally couldn't help but utter foul language.
She brought ginseng with her, so naturally she couldn't help but mention ginseng when she spoke.
In Yun Wenxia's words, Yin Hua couldn't survive without her ginseng.
As she watched them leave, Xia Wenhua's expression grew increasingly dejected.
This feeling of gloom continued until she got home that evening. After dinner, she suddenly asked Pei Songbai, "Songbai, are you on duty tonight?"
Given Pei Songbai's status, it wouldn't be his turn to be on duty.
Pei Ying was about to retort when Pei Songbai stopped her.
He returned to the room with Xia Wenhua: "Do you need me to work the night shift?"
Pei Songbai's answer resonated with Xia Wenhua.
"Pine and Cypress, you still remember, don't you?"
Xia Wenhua also casually probed, but Pei Songbai was too wary. She wanted to go to the empty city that night to see if there was any ginseng, but it was impossible for Pei Songbai to be there.
She had originally planned to find an excuse to go out that night, but it was really hard to find one.
After the map incident, she thought about it several times and always felt that Pei Songbai was very clear-headed when he woke up and spoke. How could he have forgotten it later?
The only possibility was that Pei Songbai was lying to her, a doubt that had been lingering in Xia Wenhua's mind for a long time.
Before she could come up with an excuse to go out that night, she opened her mouth and said something. Pei Songbai's answer seemed to confirm Xia Wenhua's guess.
Meeting Pei Songbai's deep gaze, Xia Wenhua wanted to laugh, but found she couldn't bring herself to do it.
Their previous life was a tragedy for both of them. They were clearly people with their own thoughts, but they were controlled by the plot and led step by step to their inevitable death. It was definitely not a pleasant memory.
What are you talking about? What do you remember?
The deep sorrow in Pei Songbai's eyes made Xia Wenhua realize the truth, and that there were many things that didn't necessarily need to be said.
She tilted her head back, forcing back her tears, and then smiled through them.
"It's nothing, but you'd better do your shift well tonight."
Pei Songbai stepped forward and gently wiped away Xia Wenhua's tears: "I will definitely do my duty well. Don't you trust me?"
He didn't say anything, yet it was as if he said everything.
Xia Wenhua watched Pei Songbai's departing figure, the tenderness in her eyes lingering for a long time.
After giving Xia Wenhua a clear indication that she could only take out ten items from the space, the person behind her seemed to no longer hide it.
Xia Wenhua was immediately summoned to the pharmacy as soon as she entered the empty city.
Xia Wenhua's previous experiences made her realize that this so-called empty city was compensation, and that the suffering she and Pei Songbai had endured could only be compensated for with these things.
Since she appeared in the pharmacy, it means that the pharmacy can find what she needs.
I came to this empty city just to gamble, but I never expected that it would actually be there.
Xia Wenhua didn't even bother to tell whether she had found it or not, she just shouted into the air.
"Last time the map appeared right in front of me, so just give me the ginseng now, I don't want to look for it."
Kongcheng was surprisingly easy to talk to. After Xia Wenhua finished speaking, the ginseng in the box was delivered.
Seeing that one ginseng was packed in a box, and then nine appeared in front of her, Xia Wenhua couldn't help but sneer.
She could tell that the person behind this really wanted to get rid of her. She had ten chances in total, and if she gave them away like this, she would never be able to come back in, right?
Regardless of whether she was a god or a ghost, no one ever gave her a direct answer, and Xia Wenhua didn't tolerate it.
She looked around the pharmacy and found a large box.
Then she began to put the ginseng into the small boxes one by one until she got to the last one. Suddenly, the ginseng stuck to the ground and she couldn't get it out.
"What are you doing? Let go!"
This is Xia Wenhua's little secret; no matter how strange the things that appear, she won't be afraid anymore.
I still couldn't pick up the box, and a piece of paper floated down from the side.
When the space was first upgraded, the only thing that told her was a piece of paper that she could only take a maximum of ten items.
Xia Wenhua didn't look: "I'm not looking. If you can talk, then talk. If you can't, then walk away. I'm definitely going to take this."
The box on the ground didn't move, and more paper floated down from the side.
Xia Wenhua ignored it, and then pieces of paper started falling from the sky one after another, making Xia Wenhua laugh in anger.
Perhaps realizing she really didn't want to deal with it, the last piece of paper landed right on the box.
Xia Wenhua had to remove the paper first if she wanted to pick up the box.
She was amused and annoyed by Kongcheng's shameless behavior. Her gaze fell on the paper and she saw a sentence on it: "I really can't speak. Look at the paper!"
Can't speak?
A glint flashed in Xia Wenhua's eyes as she kept her guess to herself.
Then, she picked up the papers one by one.
"You can't take them all together, take them separately!"
"Take them separately!"
"Take a few items separately."
"Such a big city, and only ten items? Hurry up and take them."
"Don't use one box anymore, at least count two items, okay?"
"..."
Each piece of paper spoke with increasing humility, until finally it seemed as if the person writing these words was about to cry.
Xia Wenhua felt that the space becoming an empty city was already eerie, and the rule of only being able to take ten items was even more bizarre.
Since the space upgrade, she's been in a hurry and hasn't had time to force out this thing behind her.
Now that she has the ginseng, she can use it to save Yin Hua. No one will come looking for her tonight, so she's not in a hurry.
Xia Wenhua placed the papers she had just looked at aside and reached for the box.
The box was still too heavy to lift. Xia Wenhua raised an eyebrow: "Is it something from the empty city that you don't want me to take out? Fine, I'm not counting on this job anyway, so I'll just leave it."
As she spoke, she ignored the boxes that were already packed next to her and was about to leave when white paper began to fall from the sky.
"No! Take it away now!"
Clearly, what's behind this desperately wants Xia Wenhua to take the items, especially the quantity.
When Xia Wenhua first started using the supermarket, she could only take things once a week. Since it would be a waste if she didn't use them, she always took them, thinking that she might as well take them.
Later, the supermarket became a ghost town, and Xia Wenhua knew that she could only take ten items. She was very cautious and so far only took out the map.
She remained calm, seemingly unconcerned about the superpower, while the person behind her was clearly panicking.
Xia Wenhua curled her lips: "Tell me what exactly you are, and why I can only take ten items."
The sky remained silent, and no one responded to Xia Wenhua.
It's unrealistic for her to expect to uncover someone's secret in just a few questions.
Xia Wenhua wasn't in a hurry. She chuckled and muttered, "Hiding and showing his tail, he's definitely not a good person," before making a move to leave.
Just as she was about to leave, the long-absent white paper floated down again.
