The sun is shining outside the window, and the thick double-glazed windows block the cold wind outside the house, leaving only the pleasant winter sunshine into the living room. Clank Bell ran up and down the armrests of the rocking chair, occasionally grabbing my buttons and playing on the swing to make a fuss, but no one cared about the little thing that was a little too excited after the jet lag. Out of the corner of her eye, a black and white maid's outfit flashed - from the coffee table, it was Anvina busy cleaning the room, and the little ghost's path of action had always been the shortest between two points.

Life is so leisurely, the world is quite beautiful, I feel like I am about to become an immortal at this time.

Not far behind him is a small bubble who is quietly playing with something by herself, Ji Shanshan is sitting on the small blanket next to the little girl and looking at the ceiling in a daze, and my sister is teaching the mercury lamp to write the names of our whole family, so the little puppet is full of resentment towards Sandora.

On the other side, there are two guys sitting on the sofa in class, one is Lilina, when I turned my head, I found that this pseudo-Lori was talking to the person opposite with a serious face, and the other was Fina, the unsmiling queen girl was obediently holding a notebook, recording what the other party told herself, this scene looks a little weird, but you have to know what they are talking about, you can understand: today's topic is the common sense of living in this world.

Fina, the former mechanical queen who has not lived a human life for hundreds of years, is as weak as a blank sheet of paper in terms of common sense, and it took me half a day to make her remember that water must be boiled before she can drink it, and then I used another half a day to make her remember that it has to be boiled and has to be dried for a while - of course, considering the physical fitness of the Apostle Xiling, these two common sense seem to be nothing for her to know, but this still shows that Fina is an idiot in common sense, so it is naturally not strange for her to listen to Lilina's class, no matter how unreliable, Lilina could still take on this teaching task.

The little teacher of more than one meter is talking about Chinese customs and habits today, as well as the taboos between people who need to know the Tao in this world.,This aspect of knowledge is something that Fina urgently needs to make.,So I'm particularly pleased that an unreliable pseudo-Lori finally did a serious job.。

"Remember, you can't get a haircut during the New Year!"

Lilina said one by one, Fina blinked, and quickly wrote this sentence to herself, and then asked curiously, "For what?" Will it catch a cold? ”

"Because the haircut in the first month will kill my uncle."

Lilina said with a sad face, her voice particularly reliable.

Fina nodded in a daze, I don't know what Lu Dao thought, and suddenly she was shocked again, jumped off the sofa and ran to me, looking at me with big eyes full of panic: "How many uncles have you killed in order to summarize this law?" ”

I threw out of the rocking chair suddenly, and Ji Shanshan, who was in a daze, began to reach out and call for help: her neck was stretched, and her sister was holding the mercury lamp's hand to draw the word "Wei" in Kelway, but suddenly she pierced a hole in the notebook with too much force, and the mercury lamp began to scream, and Lilina immediately understood what she had to do: she dragged her recycling basket from the side of the sofa and jumped in: "Call me when you eat." ”

"What's wrong?" Fina inexplicably looked at the scene of a group of people in the living room turning over in an instant, and opened her mouth with a very innocent expression, "Is there a question I asked?" ”

It turned out that she still knew that this was her own problem!

I patted my head and got up, and slipped Lilina out of the basket, and the little girl began to kick and kick in protest, and my brain exploded on this girl's head: "Pick up normal things and teach Fina in the future!" ”

"Why is it not normal to shave your head and die in the first month!" Lilina protested solemnly, "I saw you say that to the mercury lamp the day before yesterday! Do you dare to say that you didn't teach her this because she didn't have an uncle for mercury lamps? ”

Me: "......"

I shouldn't have tried to communicate with Lilina normally in the first place, and when I ran into this mobile curiosity maker, I didn't say a word, and I gave her a few brains first, and the most basic moral qualities of an imperialist new citizen!

After kneading Lilina's little face into a red bun, I spent ten minutes explaining to Fina in detail what was going on with the statement that her uncle had shaved his head and died in this New Year, apparently the former queen had a hard time understanding the so-called folk taboos, or that she didn't understand all such real but unreasonable taboos, Fina frowned in distress after listening to me tell her that it was just a customary custom, but in fact, neither the eldest nor the second uncle had anything to do with your hair, and frowned in distress: " So why do you have such a statement? It is unscientific, and it does not generate any benefits, and it also affects the income of the barber......"

"People believe this," I spread my hands, "at least the Chinese believe this, you can not believe it, but if others regard this thing as a taboo, you must have some scruples, the so-called customs taboo is what it means." Of course, you shouldn't be exposed to this kind of statement in Shadow City, so take this as an example of how you know the so-called 'customs and taboos'. ”

"Then this is worthless knowledge," Fina muttered, pointing at Lilina, "and why did she tell me this?" ”

I looked at Lilina, who had been thrown into the recycling basket by myself, with the eyes of the eight ancestors of the blessed Ya, and gritted my teeth and said, "She owes a beating!" ”

"Don't mind, boss!" Lilina quickly shrunk her neck in the basket, "Fina is really serious, she will beat me to death when the time comes!" ”

I glanced at Fina in surprise, and the other party nodded seriously: "You said, she owes a beating, you are my friend, so I will help." ”

There was a sudden burst of people in the living room, I found that talking to the girl in front of me was too cola, you must be prepared to suppress the rib fork before you speak, this blank paper girl will take anything you say seriously - as long as she decides to believe you, and she will put any of her ideas into practice and say it frankly, there is no fancy, such a clean girl is a rare animal in this era, basically it is difficult for modern Lori to be more than five and a half years old to see goldfish, Ninety-nine of the hundred people over the age of twelve who still believe that mermaids will turn into bubbles when they die are in the adolescent intellectual correction center, and the remaining one is named Fina, and I'm pretty sure of this because yesterday morning she was holding a high school physics book and wanted to talk to me about the relationship between the law of conservation of mass and the volume of a mermaid after it turns into foam, and Isana was there at the time, and then there was no more......

I think I should try to let Fina and Lilina have less contact in the future, the latter is keen to use her curious view of the world to wash the nerves of normal people, and Fina who doesn't know anything is undoubtedly the best experimental field for her, and she will definitely try her best to instill all kinds of common sense in Fina. I can't imagine what this simple mechanical girl will be like if Fina continues to have contact with this pseudo-Lori from the inside out......

"Speaking of which, in the past two days, I have seen that Avalon seems to be lively, a bunch of monsters are wandering around, and they are also mixed with a lot of Atlantean artificial gods, and they have built a large hall outside the village - you and they are also neighbors, what's going on?"

I asked casually as my sister taught Fina how to make tea.

"Because it's about celebrating newborns." "They say it's very memorable, but I don't really understand that population growth should be a natural law, and it's a waste to celebrate it." ”

As soon as Fina's words fell, a group of sisters in the living room rushed over, and the shallow bubble sister Lin Xue and even Ji Shanshan, everyone looked around me and Fina, and everyone looked at this side with thick gossip on their faces: Women are the most enthusiastic creatures in this world who are keen to listen to gossip, and there is no one, even the usually stable sister is not in control at this time. The only exceptions in the room were Sandora and Bubbles and Pandora, two who were genuinely uninterested, and one who was busy chatting with the ants he caught, and I think they should be called a calm trio of large, medium, and small.

Viskal's shiny blood pupils were particularly conspicuous in the circle of people, and the little girl arched forward vigorously while shouting: "Little child, little child? Who's who's? Renault vs. Zeratul? ”

I almost slipped under the coffee table and wrung Viskar's little face in anger: "What a mess this is! ”

Viska's soft little face turned into a ridiculously shaped dough in my hands, and I pointed to the bright-eyed bubbles next to me and muttered: "She said it, Zeratul and Renaud are a couple......"

A second later, Bubbles and Lilina are tossed into a basket.

The gossip of so many people around made Fina a little flustered, and she probably didn't understand why this circle of girls was so excited, even though she was a girl herself. After thinking about it, she decided to answer my question first, that is, whose child had such a big face and made so many people in Avalon prepare to celebrate - it was not easy to get those sneaky monsters to gather together to do one thing.

"It's an Atlantean child," Fina replied unhurriedly in a circle of cannibalistic eyes, "I don't remember the names of my parents, but they seem to be commoners." ”

"Oh-"

There was a frustrated response all around, and it was clear that the beauties were disappointed: it had been a long time since the birth of an ordinary Atlantean child, so the group of monsters had gathered to celebrate on a whim.

But there is always a thoughtful person who will notice what we have overlooked, and my sister, when everyone is busy disappointed, suddenly remembers something, and reminds loudly: "Wait! To put it this way...... That was supposed to be the first child born since the New Age of Atlantis! ”

Everyone paused for a moment, and finally realized that this was really not an ordinary newborn.

And another sentence from Shandora raised the mood again: "Not only since the New Era, but the first child born since Atlantis was torn from the face of the earth." ”

I glanced suspiciously at Sandora, who was smiling and walking this way, and the latter explained with a soft smile: "Maybe you didn't pay attention to those files, but I also found out by chance when I was looking through the materials: since the continent of Atlantis was torn out of the continent and thrown into the otherworldly realm, the decree prohibiting childbirth has been implemented, and this is the first time in so many thousands of years that they have welcomed newborns. ”

"Forbidden...... Procreate? He asked shallowly, "For what?" How could they impose such strange laws? ”

"Quite simply, because the Atlantean man-made gods are immortal."

Sandora replied, "We quickly thought of a lot of things, and we all fell silent.

They are immortal, so they will not have population loss due to lifespan at all, and the transformation of the empire has allowed them to obtain an extremely powerful **, so it is difficult for them to have a population reduction due to daily accidents, in this case, these immortal transformers were sent to the cold space of the otherworldly realm, where they could not find a way to restart the starship, nor could they find other planets to land, and all resource replenishment was impossible to talk about to maintain the survival of the remnants, Only a large number of ancient machines that were in disrepair and constantly broke down, although those ancient machines made enough materials for them to maintain the operation of the city's infrastructure, but could not provide them with surplus living space, and when the living space was locked and the resource replenishment could be exhausted at any time, natural reproduction was forbidden.

In fact, the prohibition of natural reproduction is only an expedient measure, for the remnants of Atlantis who don't know when the road will end their wandering life, the extremely limited starship survival environment is like a sword of Damocles hanging over their heads, those ancient machines that don't know when the road will stop as long as there is a complete shutdown and can no longer be started, it means that tens of thousands of people in the entire city will lose supplies, and when that situation happens, it is the biggest disaster: not only will newborns be forbidden to be born, Even the old, weak, sick and disabled who are still alive are forced to give up, and in fact, just speculation, I am sure that such a thing has not happened.

At the beginning of the disaster, Atlantis City became the ultimate refuge for all man-made gods, and almost every Atlantean who stayed near the "Holy City" poured into the city with extremely limited space, and then the city was thrown into the otherworld, becoming a starship floating in space without power, waiting for them is the ensuing shortage.

This is the case in all civilizations in times of disaster: the safest shelters are always crowded with refugees far beyond their capacity, and as the disaster continues, a large number of refugees will die in the lack of living space that follows. Something similar must have happened in Atlantis City. After all, although they have been transformed like gods, they are not truly immortal Xiling Apostles after all, and they still need a stable supply of materials to survive after a certain period of time.

Suddenly thinking of these things made us all a little silent, although Lin Xue said more than once that our family is the most heartless gang in history, but even Qianqian didn't have a heart and lungs at this time. However, these glooms did not last long, because in any case, everything passed, and the Atlanteans finally came over.

"It's really something to celebrate."

My sister gently stroked Little Bubbles' head and whispered, "They didn't invite us, maybe they felt that the birth of a civilian child among them was not worth alarming the 'great gods', but ......"

"Sure enough, it's better to go and see it, right?"

Shallow and straightforward said everyone's thoughts.

This is the first time that the group of people in the family have expressed their approval of the idea proposed by the shallow in such a synchronous manner, and we all feel that we are sorry for the prestige of the first family in the entire multiverse if we don't mix it up with this kind of thing!

"Fina, when does the celebration begin?"

Seeing that Qianqian was about to go back to the house to freshen up and get ready to set off, I quickly turned my head to understand the situation with Fina, because although I was theoretically the "leader of the great gods" in the hearts of the Atlanteans, I had little understanding of their customs and habits, and I didn't know what the taboos were in the so-called newborn celebration.

What if the celebration of a newborn in a family has to wait for a good day to start, how embarrassing it is to break into someone's delivery room and ask to take the child out to see it.

"If it's a celebration, it's this afternoon," Fina thought for a moment and nodded affirmatively, "There should be a while, they say that the baptism will not take place until seventy-two hours after the birth of the newborn, which is the 'newborn cycle' prescribed by the great gods." ”

"It seems to be the time it takes for the Xiling host host to replicate the next generation of the parent machine." Sandora explained to me in a low voice, and I nodded knowingly: it seems that this is yet another deified imperial common sense.

Well, in this way, it takes three days for a parent machine to replicate the next generation of the parent machine, which is much longer than the time required for a mass production machine, and I remember that the time required to copy a mass production machine is even shorter than a plate of tomatoes and eggs (don't ask me why I would associate the production time of the mass production machine with stir-frying, isn't this the latter eating when I discussed this with Sandora), I didn't expect it to take three days for Bubbles to give birth to the little bubbles - the child is really hard for you.

Bubbles suddenly glanced at this side with some feeling, and muttered in a low voice: "Why do you suddenly feel a little cold on your body?" ”

Me: "......"

What a murderous sixth sense! you, kid! RO！。
