Chapter 146: Giving a Name
It was the first time Hao Ren had realized so intuitively what a magical thing the racial gap was.
After repeated confirmation, several half-hung guardians finally affirmed that the little mermaid was using chopsticks as food and not a child biting, the little little bite, which was only half a foot long, had an amazing bite force, and the bamboo chopsticks were gnawed and dropped a table of scum like a chocolate bar in her mouth, Hao Ren was really startled at first, but when he saw the saliva at the corner of the little mermaid's mouth, he completely gave up and snatched the chopsticks.
Half a chopsticks quickly went down to the stomach, the mermaid's small belly only slightly bulged a little, she patted her stomach with satisfaction, burped a bamboo-flavored full, and jumped into the basin to drink water, the flexibility of the movements, the skillful eating of which made it hard to believe that this was a little guy who had just hatched for only a few hours. Lily looked at this qiΔ in amazement, and it took a long time to think of something: "Eh, she should be able to bite my teether if she says that...... Landlord, you said yes, right? β
If it weren't for the husky's broad thinking, she would probably be the only one who would sigh at this juncture.
"She eats bamboo?" Vivien's expression was more weird and weird, "I'm so old...... The first time I heard that mermaids could eat bamboo, and it was this kind of freshly born fry. β
"No, she should eat coarse plant fiber," Nangong May is more or less an aquatic product, and her analysis is much more reliable than others, "There is no bamboo in the sea, and it is unlikely that this kind of thing will grow even in the sea of another world...... This mermaid is supposed to eat coarse hard plant fibers for survival. And probably because of the harsh living environment over there, this little guy is really capable of independent living, and she can probably survive in the sea herself - no wonder the goddess sister said that this egg will definitely hatch small fry. This vitality is too strong. β
"But she didn't expect the egg to be boiled in boiling water to hatch, and she told me to be careful not to boil the egg." Hao Ren pouted. He didn't care much about the independent survival ability of this "little fry", he just thought that this otherworldly mermaid race must be a rather fierce species. You see, they have this kind of teeth and mobility just after hatching, and if they throw a dozen eggs into the Pacific Ocean, it is estimated that it will not take a few years for even the fishing boats to be eaten by them. It's a pity that there is only one lone seedling left in this race.
When everyone was surrounding the basin to communicate with the little mermaid, a rough voice suddenly came from the direction of the gate: "Yo, I'll come back...... What are you studying? β
Lily turned her head to see that it was Yitzax who had returned, and immediately beckoned and shouted, "Come and see, big man!" The landlord's eggs hatched! I'll help hatch it! β
Hao Ren really thought about it at this moment, this mushy husky was thrown out of the window! It's a pity that I can't beat her......
"What a mess...... "Izax also made Lily stunned, and came over in confusion, and was shocked to see the small fry soaked in the pot." Nangong girl, it turns out that you were pregnant before? β
Hao Ren: "......"
"Oh yes, I remember!" Yitzhax noticed that the atmosphere around him was not right, so he quickly woke up and patted his head in embarrassment, "It's the egg we brought back, I didn't expect it to hatch so quickly." I'm sorry, I'm a quick talker. β
This should not be just a matter of straightforwardness, Hao Ren glanced at the Great Demon suspiciously. It always felt like there was something on his mind in the appearance of Izax, and he was obviously not here just now, but the big demon quickly diverted the attention of everyone on the scene: "What is this little guy's name?" β
"yes, I haven't named it yet!" Vivien slapped her face. "You can't keep calling fish fry, can you?"
So everyone began to work hard to study the name of the baby fish, this newly hatched little guy is really promising, you see how long it took to open his eyes and become the core of the family. "Get out" screamed around outside the circle of people for a long time, but no one paid attention to it. The former favorite of the family lost his status in such an instant, and he choked it depressed.
Hao Ren teased the little mermaid's tail with his fingers. While poking, he mentioned yΓ¬: "How about a nickname called a baby?" Let's just give her a nickname and call it like this, anyway, we don't need to register her. When you grow up, you will want to correct your name. β
"No, it's too vulgar," Nangong May waved her hand vigorously, "Change one." β
"This was brought back by the landlord, and she is also the most sticky landlord, so why don't you simply give her surname Hao," Vivian thought for a moment, "plus she is a human fish, how about calling her Hao Duoyu?" β
Lily suddenly became happy: "Eh, I agree, I agree......"
"Another one!" Hao Ren has one head and two big, "You can't be strict?" β
Lily used her brain: "Otherwise, this egg was hatched by me, so just call it a dog egg......"
Everyone yelled together: "Change one!" β
"I think there should be a gorgeous and noble name," Itzhax said in a low voice, "we have to think about the identity of this child: she is the only remaining mermaid in a certain world, and she is entrusted to us by the goddess herself, and her guardian - that is, you, landlord, you are also on the side of the gods, and in my world, it is a person of the rank of the chosen pope, and even the king has to bow on his knees, so this mermaid raised by you should at least have a princess-like name......"
Hao Ren made Izzax's words a little dizzy, and asked dizzily: "Then what do you think it's called?" β
"Elizabeth? Francois? Velasquez? Frieh...... I'm not done yet......"
Hao Ren pushed Yizax away (this is not easy): "Your ability to make a name is not as good as mine!" β
It seems that this big demon is a waste man in another sense, and he is definitely a dictionary that he recites directly!
So everyone was gossiping again, but no one could come up with a reliable JianyΓ¬, and finally Vivian clasped her hands on her chest and said in a calm tone, "Actually, what the big man said also makes sense, the baby fish should have a loud name, but the name he mentioned is too long, we can make it shorter - how about being called Elizabeth?" β
Hao Ren felt that the name Elizabeth was not impossible, but it seemed that there were a lot of people called this name, and it was more or less lacking in personal characteristics, but Vivien had already made a decision: "If you have no opinion, it's decided, the legend of the mermaid on the earth was first transmitted from the West, and I feel that this name is quite in line with the temperament of the little guy." What do you think, host? β
Hao Ren wanted to say that a fish only half a foot long could have a woolen temperament, but he looked at the unreliable guy in his room, and finally could only nod: Elizabeth is more or less reliable, what if she really gets a name dog in the end? If you look at the husky's power, it's not impossible!
"I'll provide another nickname," Nangong May raised her hand, "Elizabeth feels too formal, let's have another nickname, how about calling it Doudou?" Look at her so little ......."
This time, before others could express their opinions, the little mermaid was already happily flapping her tail and jumping in the basin, although she may have been excited for other reasons, but everyone was still happy, Hao Ren slapped his face: "It's called Doudou!" The little one agreed! β
So the little mermaid got the name that accompanied her for the rest of her life from this moment: the big name Elizabeth, the little name Doudou.
Hao Ren felt that this name would become a legend sooner or later, not to mention anything else, look at this contrast......
Everyone tossed for a long time because of a mermaid, and at this time Lily was already hungry and about to bite, so everyone dispersed to get busy with business, Vivian ran to cook, and Yizax and Nangong May went to pack their luggage, but just when Hao Ren was about to go back to his house, he found a trouble: the little mermaid stuck again!
The moment he realized that everyone had left, and even Hao Ren was about to leave, the mermaid Doudou fluttered violently in the basin, and let out a very sharp scream that made people can't help but panic, Hao Ren saw that the little guy almost jumped out of the basin with a roll, jumped off the coffee table, and then jumped towards him on the floor, and the battle scared him a lot!
Doudou grabbed Hao Ren's trouser leg and quieted down a little, but the latter was already crying: he suddenly realized that he still had to solve the problem of the fish treating him as his mother! (To be continued......)
