Chapter 16 Sleeping Pills and Peppermint
Hearing Lu Xiaoyu's words, Lu Xun, who was already highly nervous, suddenly became excited, he took out the pistol he snatched from Chen Yu's car yesterday, and slowly walked towards the gate.
Sting!
Sting!
The sharp scratching sound sounded again, cold sweat broke out on Lu Xun's forehead, and he aimed the muzzle of the gun at the door and was about to pull the trigger, and a neat line of prompts instantly caught his eye.
[You can choose to shoot, but after three seconds, you will lose your watch dog forever!] 】
Lu Xun looked at this prompt and was stunned for a moment, watchdog?
"Damn, it's our dog!" Lu Xun reacted, no wonder he was very familiar with the sound he heard just now, and the sound was not very big, if it was the kind of biter he saw last night, the movement made by its sharp claws would definitely be much louder than this.
Crash!
Lu Xun moved the iron rod on the gate, and carefully pushed the door open a little gap, only to see a fluffy dog head squeezed in through the crack in the door, and let out an excited whimper.
It's the same German Shepherd on the farm!
"I actually forgot about you!" Lu Xun was a little embarrassed, this dog was adopted by his parents when they were alive, and he had been on the farm for more than ten years, although he was a little old, he was still loyal.
Yesterday, Lu Xun experienced too many things, which overloaded his brain a little for a while, and when he hid in the basement, he didn't even remember that it was still outside, fortunately, this night was safe, otherwise Lu Xun would be very guilty.
He first observed and made sure that the dog did not have any injuries on its body and that there was no possibility of being infected and mutated, and then opened the door completely.
"Erhei! Come here! Lu Xiaoyu waved his hand at it, peeled off a sausage skin and threw it to it, stroked its head and said softly: "I'm sorry, fortunately you didn't have an accident." ”
Erhei swallowed the sausage into his belly in a few bites, licked Lu Xiaoyu's palm, and kept wagging his tail, looking not unhappy at all.
Seeing this scene, Lu Xun couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
Sometimes it's good to be a silly animal, at least you don't have to worry about everything, as long as you have a bite to eat, you will be happy.
"I'll go out and have a look, and I'll bring the gas stove over by the way." Lu Xun rubbed his somewhat deflated stomach, and felt a sense of hunger and weakness welling up, after experiencing and witnessing those monsters himself, his appetite became very poor, he hadn't eaten anything since yesterday afternoon, only drank a little water, and now he finally couldn't stand it.
With the pistol in his hand, he walked out of the basement with light steps and went outside, the warm sunlight shining on his body, suddenly making him feel like he was in a different world.
Lu Xun looked around and found that in the fierce riots last night, his farm was not damaged in any way, perhaps because the farm was located in the suburbs, far away from hospitals and cemeteries, and the population was not very dense, so he was lucky to be unscathed in last night's riots.
He checked his farm and was relieved to find that there was no sign of a monster invasion last night.
"Xiao Lu! Xiao Lu! At this moment, Lu Xun suddenly heard someone shouting at the direction of the farm gate, he suddenly raised his head and looked there, only to see that outside the fence gate, a middle-aged woman was standing there at this time, her face full of anxiety.
It's Aunt Wang, a neighbor who lives near the farm......
Why did she run out all of a sudden?
Lu Xun quietly put the gun into his arms and walked towards the door, and at the same time, a line of prompts rose from the top of Aunt Wang's head.
[An anxious middle-aged woman, it seems that something is asking you to ......]
"Xiao Lu, have you watched the news? Now the South City is full of monsters, and many places have been locked down! It's scared to death! Aunt Wang said as she looked around nervously: "I don't know when I will be blocked, I can't even buy supplies!" If the lockdown lasts for ten days and a half months, people will not be allowed to starve to death at home? ”
Listening to Aunt Wang's words, Lu Xun slowly frowned, he didn't open the farm gate, but asked softly, "Aunt Wang, what's the matter with you?" ”
Hearing Lu Xun's words, Aunt Wang took out a small packet of ham from the small waist bag she carried with her, handed it to Lu Xun along the crack in the door, and said in a loud voice: "Look, I was afraid that your brothers and sisters would have nothing to eat, so I specially took something to give to you, there are not many things, but it can be regarded as a heart, take it!" ”
Lu Xun looked at the bag of ham sausages and was shocked.
As an old neighbor for many years, he knows very well what kind of temperament this Aunt Wang is in front of him, this woman is very bitter and mean on weekdays, and the great man is extremely harsh, even if she loses money if she doesn't pick up money when she goes out, she likes to take advantage of others the most.
To describe her in one sentence is...... The manure truck passed by her door, and she had to dig a spoonful to taste the saltiness!
Is it possible for such a person to suddenly take the risk of taking the initiative to send something to himself?
Unless she has something more important to ask herself!
Lu Xun didn't directly take the things handed over by the other party, but touched his chin and asked, "Aunt Wang, if there is anything, you just say it, otherwise, I don't dare to ask for your things!" ”
When Aunt Wang heard this, she smiled awkwardly, and then said, "Since this is the case, I will tell the truth!" The man in my family who is not angry, he was so scared that he couldn't even sleep after hearing about last night's incident, you know, he has high blood pressure, and now he has insomnia, his eyes are red like rabbits, I am really afraid that if he stays up again, something will happen to him! ”
"So I thought, get some soothing and sleeping medicine from you, and get some mint, which can refresh your mind!"
Lu Xun breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this: "I thought something was going on, it's easy to say!" However, the herbs that calm the nerves and help sleep have to be blended and boiled back, and the operation is very troublesome, so let's do it, I just bought some sleeping pills before, you take them directly! ”
"As for mint, how much do you want? I'll dig it for you! ”
These two things are not valuable things, so Lu Xun didn't pay attention to it at all, although he didn't like Aunt Wang's personality very much, but after all, the neighbor had lived for so many years, and he would not refuse the other party for this little thing.
Soon, Lu Xun filled a snakeskin bag full of mint, and took out a pack of "sleeping pills" and handed it to the other party.
This thing is said to be a sleeping pill, but it is actually a small blue sleep aid pill in the cold medicine that Lu Xun caught when he had a cold before, Lu Xun was afraid that he would be sleepy after taking the medicine, so he specially picked it out, and now he has saved more than 20 tablets.
The real sleeping pills are controlled items, and they can only be obtained with a doctor's prescription, and Lu Xun's family has no inventory at all.
After taking the sleeping pills and the whole bag of mint, Aunt Wang left with a thousand thanks.
And Lu Xun stood in place and looked at Aunt Wang's distant back, pondered for a moment, and suddenly felt that something was not quite right, but he couldn't say what was wrong.
"I want sleeping pills and peppermint to refresh my mind...... Is she going to let Uncle Wang sleep or spirit? Lu Xun smiled, touched his chin and said to himself, "Mint, what other uses does this thing have besides refreshing?" ”
