baizhu

The owner of Bubu Pharmacy and guardian of Qiqi, Doctor Baizhu is a master of the medicinal arts and the last recipient of a generational contract with a white snake named Changsheng. He seeks to achieve immortality to ensure that he is the last to fulfill his contract, saving potential heirs and even Changsheng herself from the cost that comes with his power. Appearance Baizhu is a tall man with fair skin and green hair that reaches down to his shoulders. He has golden eyes and is always seen wearing a pair of red oval-framed glasses. Baizhu is often seen with his pet snake Changsheng wrapped around his neck like a scarf. He also wears a short-sleeved cropped shirt and indigo trousers. Over this, Baizhu wears a turquoise blue sash and a pale blue jacket wrapped around his shoulders like a cape. Personality Many rumors swirl about Baizhu, although most of these are unknown, aside from the fact that its traditional herbal medicines are extremely bitter. He took in Qiqi despite her being a zombie and having a terrible memory for yet-unknown personal reasons. Furthermore, he seems to only care about her to the extent of her use by him, as he "has no element of sincerity" when he tries to cancel her orders by saying that he loves her. At the same time, he also easily breaks down whenever she demands something from him, slightly reducing the cost of the Eternal Incense when Nobile offers to supply them with coconut milk for Qiqi. According to Changsheng, Baizhu is a kind of scammer and overprices his customers, and warns the Traveler about him. Considering that she is always standing on his shoulders, it seems that Baizhu doesn't care about her warnings.
