Chapter 2 Names
People start with a bowl, even begging for food and a place to beg, she is good, even if she gives a golden bowl, there is no place to beg, the eyes are desolate, and the earth is scorched.
The first priority of survival is to understand the rules and apply them, Tao Qini understands this truth very well, so she will not come up with anything that is ahead of her time.
When Qing Lingling's gaze fell on the land lord, the young man sitting under the offering table stared at her without a trace.
Her deep eyes were full of inquiry, and her innocent and immature eyes did not have the pure, simple, and dark pupils they had before, making these eyes as deep as a black hole, revealing an indescribable coldness.
Just yesterday, when the Tao family was crying in despair, his eyelids moved again, and when he opened his eyes, he was as if he was covered with a layer of fog.
I thought that he would be back in the light and alive in the blink of an eye, but if it wasn't always under his nose, he would have thought that he had changed people, and the hand on his knee tightened unconsciously.
Tao Qini noticed his probing gaze, withdrew her gaze, put her hands on her lower abdomen, and pinched the fleas scurrying around her body.
She had to step up, she couldn't stand this unkempt and dirty ghost anymore.
While thinking wildly, there was a sound of talking, and it turned out that the neighbor's woman who was looking for food Liu had returned.
Lao Fu scolded in his mouth, "Where did you die, why did you come back, you want to starve us to death, don't you?" ”
"The bark of the trees around here has been stripped naked, and I have walked out into the woods." Liu Shicheng said with trepidation, "I'll go and cook on the fire now." Timid as a mouse, she immediately ran out.
Liu went out and approached Shen and whispered, "His aunt, I'll borrow your fire." ”
"Good!" Shen gave up the fire to Liu.
Liu muttered with a dark face, "I knew that I would keep a girl, and I had to do it myself." ”
The two faces of the Liu family, Tao Qini was no longer surprised, and she was thinking about how to act.
"Nier, Nier, it's ready." Shen came over, squatted beside her, patted her arm gently, and said softly.
"Oh!" Tao Qini sat up against the wall, took the stoneware bowl in her hand, looked at the earthy porridge in the bowl, and took a sip.
For people who go out to hunt zombies, the time can't be just right, after the business liquid they bring is used up.
I can only rely on myself to eat mutated beasts and insects, and the crystal nucleus in the brain marrow of zombies in order to survive is a good thing to replenish energy, and this bark is delicious.
Shen watched her elegantly take small sips of porridge, and the weirdness became even stronger, looking at his son's gobbling up.
The daughter seemed so out of place.
"Yao Gongzi!" Tao fifteen knelt on the ground and raised the bowl with both hands and said respectfully, his expression was full of flattery!
Yao Gongzi stretched out his hand to take the stoneware bowl he handed over, and looked at Tao Shifu with peaceful eyebrows, "Hurry up, how many times have I told you, you don't have to bow down, and tell me to live forever." ”
"Don't dare, don't dare, how dare you call Childe's name!" Tao fifteen got up and bent down and took a few steps back before turning around and returning to the door.
The corners of Tao Qini's lips stiffened, twitched twice unnaturally, the hand holding the bowl tightened, and drank the porridge again as if nothing happened.
Shen glanced at Yao Changsheng's posture of drinking porridge, which was indescribably good-looking. Looking at my daughter, it turned out that I learned from him!
With joy in his heart, his eyes dimmed again, and he looked at Tao Qini and admonished, "Be careful of scalding and eat slowly." Then he got up and went to the door.
One person only had a bowl of bark porridge and nothing else, Shen took back the empty bowl and put it in the wooden basin with the clay pot, carried it to the water source that he had finally found, washed it and put it on the wooden wheeled cart, and sat down against the wall.
In the hottest part of the day, I sweat when I don't move, and now I can't do anything even if I want to.
Just sitting in each other, the temple was stuffy, and the sky was creaking from time to time...... Sound.
Time seems to stand still, and the hot air is even more suffocating, and people who are stuffy are breathless.
Tao Qini's mind turned slightly, whether it is time or space, you have to set the position, look at the era and position you are in!
Where to start? You can't ask directly, can you?
Tao Qini's deep eyes looked at it privately, and a gleam passed under her eyes, and she suddenly looked at Tao Fifteen and his wife and said, "How is my name different from him." ”
Shen Shi looked at her in surprise when she asked the question, and thought about it since she escaped from the wilderness, she didn't know what would happen in the future, and there were some things that she should tell her in advance.
Shen walked over and sat beside her, looking at her with clear and bright eyes, "Because he is a lord, a noble lord, you see that the clothes he wears are different from ours, he wears silk." ”
"Old ...... Father! Tao Qini said in a long voice, bowing her head slightly, her thick eyelashes covering the disdain under her eyes, and what kind of old man is there to put on this one.
Tao Qini's innocent eyes looked at her and asked, "What about my name?" ”
"Isn't Qini your name?" Shen Shi looked at her slightly sideways and whispered.
"I want to be called by nice names too." Tao Qini looked at her stubbornly and said.
The girls in the village are all Nier, Niu'er, and Girl......
"That's a good name, it doesn't need to be changed." Shen bit her lower lip and continued to coax her.
"What are you coaxing her to do? We are pariahs, without names. Tao Fifteen said in a rough voice, with a thick impatience in his words.
"Cheap...... Untouchables! Tao Qini's eyes widened, and she looked at them at a loss.
"Your brother was born in early June, so Tao Liuyi, and your father was born on August 15, so Tao 15." Tao Fifteen looked at Tao Qini and said viciously, "As for you, you were born in July, and you are a girl, so Qini." ”
This Nima, I thought that the first floor of the basement would be miserable enough, but who knew that it was the fifth floor of the basement.
"I'll give you a name, Tao Jingshu! Quiet girl, I am in the corner of the city! It means demure and beautiful. Yao Changsheng looked at them and suddenly spoke.
Well! This is a sentence in the "Book of Songs", and it finally comes up with something meaningful, otherwise my eyes will be blackened.
"Thank you, Master Yao." Tao 15 knelt on the ground and bowed, looking at Shen and the envoy.
"Oooh!" Shen hurriedly knelt down and stretched out his hand to pull Tao Qini, joking, when have I ever knelt down, that is, I swore allegiance to the empire, and I was also standing at the expense of everything.
Tao Qini lay on the ground with a thud and simply pretended to be dead.
Shen looked at Yao Changsheng embarrassedly, his face stiffened and twitched unnaturally, and he stammered, "That...... This ......"
"It's okay." Yao Changsheng looked at them and said with a faint smile, good people do it to the end, "I'll give Liuyi another name, come from the east, and come from the purple qi to the east." ”
"Silly boy, don't thank you for the name." Tao 15 pushed his son to his knees and fell to the ground, and the father and son kept kowtowing in their mouths, "Thank you!" ’
