An old woman with white hair, liver spots on her face, a sallow complexion, and a gaunt frame approached. She was very old.
She didn't look like a zombie on the surface, but her pair of orange eyes betrayed her.
Xu Qian narrowed her eyes, asking no further questions.
"My stomach hurts, do you have any medicine?"
The old woman's orange eyes lit up, and she said urgently, "Yes, follow me."
The old woman called her aside and asked her in detail what she had eaten recently and where it hurt.
Xu Qian made up a story, her brows furrowed with worry.
After a while, she found a few doses of medicine in the first-aid kit and instructed her to take them four times a day.
Xu Qian took the medicine but raised an eyebrow, questioning, "It's been three and a half years since the apocalypse, Grandma, this medicine must be expired, right?"
The old woman didn't understand "apocalypse" but understood "expired."
"It's okay, it's okay, I have a way."
She held the medicine in her palm, and soon her hands emitted a platinum-gold light, a combination of white and gold unlike any other superpower she had seen.
Soon, the old woman handed the medicine back to her.
"This medicine is good to go, don't worry, your stomachache will definitely be cured."
"I've been a doctor for fifty years and owned a pharmacy for 10 years. You can trust me completely. Look at my certificate if you don't believe me."
The old woman pointed to the framed practitioner's certificate hanging high on the wall.
Her name was Fang Xiyu, and the certificate indeed showed a very, very long time ago.
It was yellowed with age.
Xu Qian lowered her gaze and smiled, but... that wasn't what she was concerned about.
Fang Xiyu's superpower must be time reversal, right?
The mission board hadn't specified.
"Grandma, can you restore this medicine to three years ago?"
Fang Xiyu chuckled, revealing her yellow teeth.
"You guessed it. Don't worry, this medicine is definitely usable. Introduce more friends to buy medicine."
Xu Qian's dark eyes flickered. This superpower was too powerful!
Time reversal, restoring medicine to its original state.
If Fang Xiyu weren't a zombie, many people would come seeking medicine.
Without a place to store it, so much medicine had expired.
No wonder Hope Base wanted to persuade her to return. It was indeed very necessary.
But why didn't she want to go to the base?
Xu Qian didn't rush. She honestly took the medicine and asked, "Grandma, how many crystal cores?"
Fang Xiyu was clearly taken aback. Crystal cores? For the first time in three years, she was selling medicine, and she didn't know how to charge.
"Give me 20 yuan."
Xu Qian's pupils contracted. She lowered her head and smiled.
Lu Yang, who had been quiet with his head down, suddenly spoke.
Xu Qian's mind raced, and a 20 yuan banknote appeared in her hand.
"Here you go."
Fang Xiyu smiled happily and immediately took it.
"Thank you, thank you. Introduce more friends."
Xu Qian's dark eyes flickered, and she smiled, "Grandma, why don't you come with me? There are too few people here. I'll take you to a place with a lot of people, and then many people will buy your medicine."
Fang Xiyu's orange eyes lit up, and she asked loudly, "Really?"
"How will I move all this medicine?"
Xu Qian patted her shoulder and smiled, "Don't worry, I'll help you move it all."
"Good, good! As long as I can sell medicine! Nothing else matters!"
Xu Qian hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Grandma, do you have any family left?"
Fang Xiyu froze. After thinking for a while, she said, "What is family? I want to sell medicine!"
Lu Yang covered his face and ran out, weeping loudly.
He realized that some people, after becoming zombies, forgot their families but still remembered they were doctors.
