Each turtle has a thick shell with different patterns carved on it. The turtle once patted the shell on his father's back and asked:

"Dad, why are we carrying such a heavy shell?"

"This is the unique weapon of our turtle family, and it is safest to hide in your shell when an enemy comes."

"But people always say we're shrunken turtles." The shrunken turtle means coward, and Xiaoxiao has made fun of the turtle in this way.

"There's nothing wrong with shrunken turtles, because we hid in their shells during the last earthquake, so we were safe."

Turtle Turtle heard her mother say that Xiaoxiao's legs were broken by the falling wood in the earthquake, and she couldn't help but shrink her head, it seems that it is not bad to have a shell, although it is heavier. He remembered another question, pointed to the pattern on his father's back, and asked:

"Then why do we have these strange patterns on our shells?"

Dad explained:

"The patterns of these turtle shells are the codes to the ancient tortoise civilization, but unfortunately now the tortoises have lost the key to unlock these codes."

"Ancient civilizations?"

"Yes, our tortoise family has a history older than humans, and these patterns may be the stories left to us by our ancestors."

Although there are not so many high-tech things in ancient times, there are many great buildings left in history: the mysterious Egyptian pyramids, the tall terracotta warriors and horses of Qin Shi Huang, the exquisite Greek temples, and the majestic Roman Colosseum...... Every dynasty has its former glory.

Turtle Turtle remembered the mantra of laughter:

"It would be nice to be able to go out and see the world!"

The turtle dreams that he is a traveler, to find traces of the dynasty in the history of the turtle, and maybe he can find the secret of these patterns, but it is a pity that although he has sound limbs and a developed mind, his strength is too small, and he can only stay in this room and daydream like Xiaoxiao.

A few days later, Xiaoxiao brought a beautiful ball and put it on the balcony.

"Wheel of Fortune?" Mom shouted in surprise.

"What is the Wheel of Fortune?" Hearing the mother's shout, the turtle who was lying on the balcony basking in the sun immediately sat up.

"That's the globe." Dad explained in a serious way.

Mom said, "There are a lot of place names on that globe, and now the turtle family is popular to use place names as their own names, and it is said that if you choose a place name, you will have an indissoluble bond with this place in this life." ”

The tortoise circles around the sphere, which is densely covered with patterns and words, just like the patterns on the shell.

"Then why is it called the Wheel of Fortune?"

"All you have to do is spin the wheel of fortune and the chosen place name will be your lucky name."

That's how the name of Kame's older siblings came from. Although Dad thought it was a bit too arbitrary, the results did not disappoint. His brother's name was Proswan, and he always dreamed of becoming a knight, and the name couldn't be more appropriate. My sister chose Florence, which was quite in line with her artistic temperament, and her mother hoped that the name would give her artistic inspiration.

"Honey, you'll have your real name soon!"

"No, the child's mother, it's too arbitrary to choose a name like this, I have to propose to Grandpa Xiaoxiao again, we want to choose a bright name." Turtle's father whispered to his mother, but the complaint didn't seem to work.

Xiaoxiao turned on the power, he turned on the switch of the lucky wheel, and the globe immediately glowed brightly, and the turtle family was attracted to it.

Xiaoxiao placed the turtle on a special high chair in front of the globe, making the turtle feel like the owner of the globe.

"This is the Earth?"

"This is a globe, a model made from the earth, and all the places on the earth are on it."

"All places?"

"Yes, all places, now you put your hand on this red button, wait until you think about it before you take it away, and when the turntable stops, there is only one place on it that is still glowing, then this place will be your name! It's a name of your choice! ”

The turtle thought it was interesting, and in a daze, it put its hand on the button of the globe, and the globe immediately rotated, emitting colorful lights, which reminded the turtle and turtle of what his father said about the way the light greets the planets, is this globe greeting the stars, thinking like this, the turtle forgot to think about the name, and kept putting his hand on it. But the smile is broken.

"Little turtle, haven't you thought about it yet? If you don't want to be good, I'll help you think about it! ”

Xiaoxiao shouted to pull the turtle's train of thought back, he quickly took his hand away, the globe slowly stopped, only one place was still glowing green, smiled and looked at it, and laughed back and forth.

"Hahaha! North pole! Little tortoise, you don't want to be the first Arctic tortoise, do you? Hahahaha! ”

Mother Turtle's face became very gloomy, and she said with a smile:

"The name Arctic doesn't work, we have to let the turtle choose another one!"

"No, I think the name Arctic couldn't be more appropriate, turtle turtle, arctic turtle, aren't you a turtle with a personality, that's it!"

"No, we'll have to decide the name!" Daddy Turtle still protested angrily.

"This is the name of the turtle himself!" Xiaoxiao took the turtle turtle off the high chair and put it on the turtle's father's turtle back, and said:

"Tortoise, Arctic. You'll use that name when you go to school in the future! After saying that, regardless of the objections of the turtle's parents, he put away the lucky wheel and went back to the house in a wheelchair.

"The North Pole? Is the North Pole bad? The turtle looked at the worried mother and asked.

"The North Pole is the farthest and coldest place on Earth, just like the Moon! However, the name is just a symbol, and there are few people who take the name Arctic, at least there are no duplicate names! "Mom will always find a way to accept something that can't be changed.

"I'll just say that this wheel of fortune is a deception, saying that you can choose your own name, but in fact, it's still fate! The pet agreement should have been changed a long time ago, the name has to be decided by ourselves, we must protest to the end, not the North Pole, just Sarn. "Daddy has been holding his breath, and this is going to all explode.

"Oh dear, every time the children choose a name, you shout to be the master, but in the end you don't accept it. I don't think we need to make a big fuss, it's just a name, the North Pole, in fact, there is nothing bad, and you don't have to go to the North Pole to live if you take a name, and the North Pole also has such a warm house, and pets will always live in the place where humans live. ”

Mom comforted Dad while taking the children back to the water tank.

The turtle turtle didn't want to embarrass his mother, but he agreed with his father in his heart, and the lucky wheel turned like that, and he took the name in a daze, how could he say that he chose it.

But the North Pole, the name sounds good, although it is far away and cold, but if it is like the moon, it is quite exciting. I wonder if the Himalayas have ever been to the North Pole?

Turtle thought about it, and another day passed.
