Chapter 176: Human Traffickers

After eating, Xia Zhi boiled some water and drank a little with Ergouzi.

"Thank you for the meal, what's your name?" Since he gave her a meal, Xia Zhi knew that he was expressing kindness to her, although Ergouzi still didn't talk to her awkwardly, but if he didn't speak, it didn't mean that Xia Zhi didn't say it. Perhaps the summer solstice would not have opened its mouth before noon today, but now the situation is completely different.

Regarding Xia Zhi's questioning, Ergouzi obviously didn't want to deal with her, and was busy in front of the fire by himself. When you have eaten and drunk enough, the fire must be extinguished. Although he picked up a lot of dry firewood before the snow, he couldn't stand such a day and night burning. Before he was sick because of the fever on the summer solstice, Ergouzi let the fire burn from day to night, and burned until dawn overnight, and he was usually reluctant to do this. It's not easy to pick up some usable firewood on a snowy day.

The work on the second dog's hand is non-stop, and a bunch of things flash in his mind, as for the summer solstice, he automatically filters it as if he didn't hear it.

"What's your name?" Xia Zhi saw that the second dog ignored her, and asked again in a low voice. Xia Zhi had the idea of living in peace with Ergouzi in his heart, first of all, of course, he had to ask the other party's name, otherwise how would he communicate in the future.

Xia Zhi thought well, but he couldn't bear to be bored and people didn't buy it, and the second dog still buried himself in his own business. Xia Zhi saw him squatting there, holding a thin wooden stick in both hands to pile the remaining wood ashes from the fire in the middle, no matter how Xia Zhi looked at him, he looked a little idle to do.

"What's your name, you won't be useless!" Xia Zhi saw that the second dog had been awkward and ignored her, but there was really no way, so he shouted. The agitation method was used.

"Who doesn't have a name. My name is...... You don't have a name! "The second dog is obviously fried. In fact, he likes Xia Solstice quite a lot, and he is happy that Xia Solstice can ask his name, but he has rarely gotten along with people since he was young, and he doesn't know how to communicate with Xia Solstice is one thing;

On the other hand, he has some inferiority complex in his heart, and he vaguely feels that it is not a good name for the people of Guanmiao Town to call him Ergouzi, but he has no father and mother since he was a child. He hadn't read a book, he didn't even have a name, and when he heard the people in the town call him Ergouzi, he was very happy in his heart, happy that he finally had a name, but only when he grew up did he know that they didn't kindly name him, but looked down on him, saying that he could only be the same as a dog.

So when Xia Zhi asked him his name, he was very entangled. I don't know if I want to say it or not. Now that he was so excited by the summer solstice, he almost missed his mouth.

"My name is Tian Xia Zhi. And what about your name? After enough rest, and full of food and drink, Xia Zhi sat on the grassy ground, and suddenly asked the name of the second dog like a naughty child.

In fact, Xia Zhi can more or less understand Ergouzi, she has lived in the mountains since she was a child in modern times, and after going to college, looking at the chic and moisturized roommates around her, she inevitably felt a little inferior, but at that time she had a Tian Grandma in her heart, Tian Grandma was the driving force for her to live happily, and inferiority was not the dominant part of her life. Later, after living in the city for a long time, that low self-esteem disappeared without a trace.

The summer solstice can be clearly seen, the second dog is reluctant to say his name, but he is reluctant to say it, she wants him to say it, maybe this is just a small thing, but it may affect his future, for this summer solstice will not hesitate to say his full name. You must know that this is still a dangerous thing for the summer solstice, which has not yet escaped from the tiger's mouth.

"My name, my name is ......" The second dog was hesitant for a long time, and he didn't say his name. The two hands kept fiddling with the ashes on the ground.

"What is it called! You won't even know your name! Xia Zhi was obviously annoyed by the twisting and pinching appearance of the second dog, the first sentence was almost yelled, and the second sentence was directly sarcastic.

Ergouzi didn't expect Xia Zhi to suddenly roar like this, obviously frightened by Xia Zhi, and then heard Xia Zhi's words, his dissatisfied eyes widened, and then he said three words weakly.

"Two Dogs"

"What, what are you saying, I can't hear clearly!" Xia Zhi plucked out his ears, but he didn't want to let go of the two dogs.

Obviously I heard it, but I pretended not to hear it, and I wanted to ask him, Ergouzi suddenly aroused a stomach of anger, and roared angrily, "Ergouzi"

"I know, isn't it just 'Ergouzi', why are you so loud, your ears are deafening!" Xia Zhi pursed his lips and plucked out his ears again, seemingly dissatisfied with the behavior of the second dog.

When Ergouzi saw Xia Zhi's appearance, he felt a lot of anger in his heart, but he didn't have a look of disdain when he saw Xia Zhi hearing his name, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, and at the same time, he was a little happy.

It's just that he is awkward, after saying his name, he no longer cares about the summer solstice, and leans back to the corner again, and goes out early in the morning to find food, he is very tired now, take a good rest, dinner has not been solved.

Xia Zhi saw that the two dogs were 'closed their eyes and recuperate' again, and they didn't say anything since they went out, but before they went out, they said a word,

"My name, it's okay to call it here, don't tell anyone when you go out, otherwise your life and mine will be gone!"

Xia Zhi deliberately said it very seriously, afraid that Ergouzi would not know the severity and said her name. It's just that Xia Zhi didn't know that after she went out, Ergouzi opened her eyes and looked at the place where she had stood, he was not a stupid person, and some people on the street from time to time in the past two days held a portrait, and when they saw a girl who was eight or nine years old and similar to Xia Zhi, they had to catch it and check it, saying what was to find the lost girl. Phew, he didn't believe it, maybe he was doing something!

Just heard Xia Zhi's words, he still didn't understand anything, those people couldn't say that they were looking for Xia Zhi, but according to what Xia Zhi just said, I'm afraid this matter is not simple, but what does this have to do with him, maybe when Xia Solstice will leave.

Today's summer solstice came out early, and yesterday I touched some tricks, today's begging work has made a lot of progress, not only the summer solstice brought out the bowl full, but also harvested a lot of rice balls, there is a shop because it is greeting guests, there is no time to care about her little called Hanako, took out five cents and sent her away, this is a rare thing.

Touching the five copper coins in her arms and carrying a bowl full of food, Xia Zhi carefully avoided the people who were looking for her on the street, and walked happily to the dilapidated house in the north.

Xia Zhi knew that she had avoided not only the people of Jia Shi, but also the people who Ding Yi had arranged to find her. Since Ding Yi suspected that the little beggar was the summer solstice, while patiently waiting for Lin Yunlei, he sent people to look for the summer solstice in Guanmiao Town. Of course, Xia Zhi didn't know that there was another wave of people looking for her in Guanmiao Town.

She happily went back with the meal, but saw that the second dog happened to meet her opposite with the rice, the two looked at the rice in their hands, so many meals, the two of them couldn't finish it at all, how should this be good, neither of them has the habit of wasting food.

By the way, you can make rice balls into rice balls that you can't eat, and store them, so they won't spoil this winter. Xia Zhi touched his arms, and suddenly remembered the rice balls given by the inn steward before, and thought that he could make the unfinished meals into rice balls and put them away, and take them out to eat when he didn't get a meal in the future.

Thinking of doing it, Xia Zhi immediately told Ergouzi his thoughts, and Ergouzi did not object, so he naturally acquiesced to Xia Solstice's approach.

In the next few days, Xia Zhi and Ergouzi still went out every day to beg for food, and when they were lucky, the two of them could not only have a full meal, but also make some rice balls; If you're unlucky, you can only come back and eat balls. But the two of them have never been hungry, either they can get some food back on the summer solstice, or the two dogs come back with more or less food.

Xia Zhi didn't think about making money through the money in her arms, but unfortunately she is like this now, and there must be no store willing to let her in. And her money is a little small, and in the past two days, she has found that the number of people looking for children on the street seems to be increasing, and she doesn't dare to take risks.

Eat and drink, dress warmly and sleep well, although the summer solstice is still skinny, but the body bones are much better than the previous two days, at least she will not walk two steps to start weak, and she will faint at every turn, plus she has been walking around outside all day these days, which can be regarded as exercise, and there is absolutely no problem with walking all morning.

Speaking of which, Xia Solstice and Ergouzi have become more and more familiar with each other in the past few days, and Ergouzi will not ignore Xia Solstice at every turn, and talk to Xia Solstice from time to time. Although they didn't get food on the summer solstice that day, the two dogs got it, plus the rice balls they had saved before, it was enough for two people to eat. After eating and drinking, Xia Zhi and Ergouzi lit a fire and went directly to rest.

In the winter night, the north wind is blowing non-stop, the wooden door of the broken house where they live on the summer solstice creaks non-stop, but in the middle of the night the summer solstice was woken up by the sound of opening the door, thinking about whether the second dog got up at night, but before she opened her eyes, a cloth towel was covered on her mouth, and the summer solstice immediately realized that the situation was wrong, struggled vigorously, and screamed twice, and then completely fainted. Apparently the cloth towel was drugged, and Xia Zhi caused her to faint because of inhaling it in her nose.

Xia Zhi knew that she had taken every precaution, and she had avoided the people of Jia Shi and Ding Yi, but she had not escaped the eyes of the traffickers, and they followed them to the broken house, and when they were sleeping, they stunned them.

When Xia Zhi fainted, the first thing that came to mind was that he didn't know what happened to Ergouzi, whether it would be the same as her, and the second thing was that fortunately they didn't give her a stuffy stick on her back like the last time Jia Shi, otherwise her body that was just a little bit would fall again.
