Judging from Xiaying's current miserable situation, Jiang Li felt that she had not deceived her by watching the bloody eight o'clock movie with her grandma for so many years.
Jiang Li didn't ask her about these things. After all, compared with their current situation, whether Xia Ying was abandoned by the other two people was not that important.
Seeing Xia Ying sinking into the depressed mood of imminent sacrifice, Jiang Li interrupted, "I still have a lot to do, and I don't have time to remember a dead person's name."
Hearing this, Xia Ying's eyes trembled slightly, and a defeated look covered her face again. She opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't know what to say, so she could only close her mouth silently.
The next second, Jiang Li was seen squatting in front of her, holding a white bandage in his hand, looking at her seriously and solemnly.
"If you want others to remember you, why do you have to rely on this meaningless sacrifice?"
"Is it so important that others care?"
Jiang Li's dark and bright eyes looked directly into Xia Ying's gloomy pupils, and said word by word, "Your value is not judged by whether others care or not!"
"Maybe your death today will allow me to remember you for three or five days, but what about after that?"
"Whether you care about others or not, isn't it good to just live for yourself?"
The calm and cold words hit Xia Ying's heart word by word, and the tip of her nose felt sore. Wasn't she afraid of death?
Afraid...Of course I am afraid, but I am even more afraid of being left behind and ignored again and again.
Xia Ying opened her eyes with a layer of mist, looked up at Jiang Li in front of her, her voice was slightly choked, "W-will you leave me?"
"It depends on your answer. I don't want to hand over my back to someone who has no will to survive."
Hearing this, Xia Ying took a deep breath, suppressing the sore fever in her nose, and her eyes that were filled with tears gradually became clear and firm.
"I want to live..."
"I want to live! I, I want to live well..."
At the end, Xia Ying couldn't help but choked up. The tears she had been holding back for a long time kept falling, and her thin shoulders couldn't help shaking.
Jiang Li could only swallow the words that were already on her lips. She was not good at comforting people, so she could only quietly leave space for Xia Ying to vent her sadness.
When Jiang Li just dealt with the zombie, she had already looked around the pharmacy. The pharmacy was not big. In addition to the lobby where they were staying, there was a diagnosis room and a single room for rest.
There was a wooden door behind the diagnosis room and single room. It seemed to be a back door leading to the outside. Jiang Li reached out and turned the lock on the wooden door.
As soon as a slight sound was made, the zombies outside the wooden door slammed on the wooden door with a bang. The sound once again attracted the attention of many zombies.
Several zombies shook their mutilated heads, opened their mouths full of blood, and threw themselves at the wooden door, making the wooden door clank.
Xia Ying, who had calmed down on the other side, was also startled by the movement. Jiang Li quickly locked the door lock tightly again.
"boom!"
Jiang Li, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, was suddenly frightened by a sudden sound in the diagnosis room. Having the experience of being frightened outside, Jiang Li reflexively covered her mouth this time and gritted her teeth. All the dirty words rolled to his lips.
Jiang Li held the door handle of the diagnosis room and pushed the door tentatively. The door remained motionless as if it was locked.
"Is there another zombie in the diagnosis room?" Jiang Li walked back to Xia Ying and asked in a low voice.
Xia Ying nodded, "When I came, the doctor had already put the sick patient into the diagnosis room."
Hearing this, Jiang Li thoughtfully glanced at the place where the zombie-turned-doctor lay, "Then the rope on the doctor's body...?"
"The doctor had been bitten by a zombie at that time. He was worried that he would also turn into a zombie that hurt people, so he asked me to help tie him up, cough, cough." Xia Ying explained while suppressing the sting in her throat. .
Then he hurriedly explained as if he remembered something, "I was not bitten by a doctor. My injuries were caused by a fight with several other people! Really! You believe me!"
"They dominated the pharmacy and wanted to drive us out. I, I just had a conflict with them. I, I really wasn't bitten!" Xia Ying was afraid that Jiang Li would not believe her, so she stammered and hurriedly explained, At the same time, he planned to pull off the bandage and show it to Jiang Li.
Jiang Li quickly stopped her move and said, "I believe it, I believe it."
Jiang Li knew very well whether the wounds on Xia Ying's body were bites or wounds from fighting. After all, she had had quite a few fights before. She was just a little surprised. Xia Ying looked thin, small and old. He had an honest and dull look, and she didn't expect that he would dare to fight with other people.
Seeing Xia Ying so eager to prove herself, it was not difficult for Jiang Li to guess the reason.
"Stop pulling the bandage, I believe you."
After hearing Jiang Li say that she believed it, Xia Ying slowly put down her hand.
"Then, what should we do now?" Xia Ying frowned and looked at Jiang Li aside.
Jiang Li couldn't think of any good solution for a while, and she was a little stumped by this problem. This was the first time she encountered a wolf in front and a tiger in the back. What should she do?
At this moment, she suddenly remembered that she seemed to have two Zifu coupons that could be used for the lottery!
Unexpectedly, as soon as this idea came to his mind, the mechanical sound of the system rang again.
"Warm reminder! The probability of obtaining precious props in the lottery of nine Zifu coupons will be greatly increased!"
"The chance of obtaining rare props from a single Zifu Voucher used in the lottery is not high. Please consider it carefully, host!"
Does this sound like Jiang Li doesn't want to smoke nine times in a row? Is it because she doesn't want to smoke nine times in a row? It was obvious that the system was stingy and refused to give her a few more Zifu coupons!
Now when encountering this kind of situation, we can only act like a dead horse!
Jiang Li looked at Xia Ying who was a little uneasy and asked, "How's your luck?"
Xia Ying, who was caught off guard by the question, looked at her in confusion and said, "Huh?"
"Let's treat a dead horse like a living doctor! Slap!" Jiang Li whispered to the system in an increasingly firm tone.
After the system received Jiang Li's decision, it still upheld the professionalism and asked again, "Do you want to spend a Zifu coupon for the lottery?"
"The lottery can begin after the host confirms!"
The system's mechanical questioning voice was serious, which made Jiang Li's heartbeat speed up a few times. Even so, she had no other choice but to confirm the start of the lottery.
The next second, a big turntable appeared in front of her eyes. It kept spinning, making Jiang Li's heart beat up and down.
The turntable gradually slowed down, and it finally stopped. Three words suddenly appeared in the originally blank silver space.
【Ding! Congratulations to the host for getting the prop psychedelic mushroom! 】
Jiang Li: ...what? What mushroom?
