Chapter Seventy-Seven: Xiao Qian and Xiao Hei
"You live here?" Qin Ke looked at the rows of shops around him and the students who were tidying up the bedding, and walked in curiously.
Different from Qin Ke's imagination, this room in the academy is actually not very luxurious, and even looks a little crowded, in addition to a few tables in the room, what catches the eye is a long bed made of bricks and stones, extending from the door to the wall at the other end, taking up half of the space in the room.
Judging from the bedding above, there were ten people sleeping in this room, but a few of them had not yet returned, or they had not been seen tonight.
"Usually live here. Abu replied as he walked inside, "But there are a few days every month when we go home to see our parents." ”
He clapped his hands and smiled at a few people in the room, "Stop, I'll introduce you." ”
A few students had actually noticed Qin Ke's arrival, their eyes were full of curiosity, and as soon as Abu spoke, the students in the room also came over with a smile.
"This is Qin Ke, huh...... This is Xiao Qian, the building ......" Abu introduced them one by one, all of them were some of his daily names, but every student who was named would say his name with a smile, some people said that their name was still a little rusty and hesitant, Qin Ke was a little strange, but Abu quickly explained, "This is the name given by Mr., we are all poor children who were selected by Mr. to enter the school, many people don't even have a big name, only cheap names such as 'whole egg', 'dog egg', 'one egg'......"
"What's your cheap name?" Qin Ke smiled a little wickedly.
"Hmm...... Let's not talk about it. Abu scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Stingy. Originally, if you had said it, I would have told you my cheap name by the way. Qin Ke said with a snort.
"Ah Ke, do you also have a cheap name?" Abu asked in surprise, in his opinion, Qin Ke's ability should not be an unknown country boy, and his master is even more mysterious......
"Do I look like a child born in a big family?" Qin Ke said, "In the past, my family farmed the land, but then there was a war and a locust plague, and the land was gone, and my father and mother died." My name was chosen by my master. ”
"Oh......" Abu scratched his head and said, "I thought ......" At this point, he made a strange expression and did not continue.
Qin Ke and Abu's conversation, the surrounding students naturally listened to it, and the students present were all born poor, otherwise they would not have to live in the residence arranged for them by Zhuge Wanling.
And since Qin Ke is also a child of a poor family, they naturally have a sense of closeness in their hearts, and they are more and more happy when they look at Qin Ke. Someone even suggested that he should use his monthly money for the month to invite everyone to eat something, but Qin Ke only felt a little sleepy, so he didn't agree.
Speaking of eating, Qin Ke felt the little lizard in his chest move.
He reached into his arms and touched it, and soon caught the restless little lizard.
The little lizard had already opened its eyes, but it seemed that it was still a little angry, and he had nowhere to focus when he was caught in the air by Qin Ke, shaking his tail and making a few dissatisfied chirps.
"Snake!" everyone was startled at first, but soon found that the little lizard's short limbs were originally from a peasant family, so they had no fear. Looking at the little lizard's affectionate eyes and his petite body, they gave birth to a little affection.
"Wow, Qin Ke, you still have a little thing. This is what the so-called student shouted, but although he was called a "small" boy, his figure was as solid as a hill, if he said "big belly can tolerate", he must be one of the best generous people among the students.
"I brought it from home. Qin Ke gently put the little lizard in the palm of his left hand, and the little lizard looked around, his eyes flickering, as if he was curious about so many people around him staring at it excitedly.
It opened its mouth and let out a crisp "squeak", as if yawning.
Abu looked at the little lizard, and was also a little happy, and stretched out his hand to touch it. But the little lizard's originally innocent big eyes were suddenly full of vigilance and rage!
His small back was tightly arched, his four feet tightly grasped Qin Ke's palms and arms, and his tail was straight like a stiff iron tong. He made a threatening sound at Abu's hand, and his seemingly harmless body seemed to contain the majesty of a tiger.
Abu's hand was retracted as if it had been electrocuted. Although it seemed that the little lizard was just intimidating, for some reason, he always felt that if he dared to move forward, the little lizard would really pounce on him and bite him.
Qin Ke was also a little surprised when he looked at the little lizard's angry appearance, but seeing the little lizard screaming at Abu, he was also a little embarrassed, so he patted its head and said, "What are you doing." ”
The little lizard was still hunched over its back and making a threat to everyone, but when Qin Ke slapped it like this, it suddenly shook its body and almost fell from his palm, it stretched out its limbs tightly, hugged Qin Ke tightly, widened its eyes, looked at Qin Ke, and looked like a child wondering.
Then, he screamed with some dissatisfaction, this time it was a chirping voice, Qin Ke couldn't help laughing, only to feel that it was like a poor chick venting his emotions at the moment.
"Don't be scary. Qin Ke stretched out his hand, and the little lizard became vigilant again, "This is my friend." ”
As Qin Ke reached out and slowly stroked its little head, it slowly eased up, although the eyes of everyone were still a little vigilant, but it was no longer arching its back as a threat. On the contrary, it seemed to be enjoying Qin Ke's touch, slowly closing its eyes and falling asleep.
"Alright, it's okay. Qin Ke said with a smile, "It just hasn't seen anyone else." ”
Abu looked at the little lizard's enjoyment, and his heart was indescribably surprised: "It's ...... What is it? It seems to understand you?"
"I guess I can understand it. Qin Ke recalled how he looked when he first found him, thinking that this foodie not only understood, but even knew how to cheat, "Anyway, it's quite smart." ”
"Lizard, can you be so smart?" said Abu quirkily, "I just know that dogs can understand me...... But it's not so ......."
"Whatever. The fat boy Xiao Qian didn't care so much, in the crowd full of excitement, Xiao Qian's eyes were simply shining, and even the corners of his mouth were unconsciously accumulating a lot of haz. He stretched out his hand, not afraid of being bitten, and stroked the smooth back of the little lizard with some hairy hands.
The little lizard suddenly opened its eyes and glanced at him, but because of Qin Ke's serious gaze, he had to slowly close his eyes and quietly feel Xiao Qian's "ravage" that he didn't know how serious.
"That's good. Xiao Qian's eyes lit up, "What's his name?"
"Name?" Qin Ke was stunned, a lizard, does it also need a name?
"That's right. Xiao Qian smiled, "It's like the little white pig in my family, so I named him Xiao Hei." ”
Qin Ke's eyes widened: "Why is the little white pig called Xiao Hei?"
"Because he was always rolling in the mud, and he was covered in black mud. ”
Qin Ke pondered for a while and said, "Then it's also called Xiao Hei." ”
Xiao Qian raised his head and said strangely: "Why?"
"Because he's already dark. "Qin Ke deserves to be authentic.
In the palm of his hand, the little lizard, or Xiao Hei, opened his eyes wide, as if he couldn't believe that his name had been so hastily decided. It screamed, but because a fat hand was constantly pressing down on his back, he could only lie down helplessly.
