Chapter 19 Joy
Winter is coming soon, and the temperatures get cooler the further north you go.
The temperature inside the tank is constant, more than 20 degrees Celsius, which is very suitable for human survival.
Gu Ming took out some little girl's clothes from the system space, helped Xiao Bei take a bath, and put on new clothes. She suddenly had a new look, and she looked even cuter, except that her hair was messy.
Taking out the hair dryer to dry her hair, Gu Ming smiled at her and said. ❈
"Uncle, help you tie your hair up, okay?"
"Uncle, can you tie your hair? My father can't."
Zhou Xiaobei was a little doubtful, as if he didn't believe he could tie his hair.
"You underestimate me. My uncle has a daughter who is one year younger than you. I often tie her hair. How could I not do it?"
Gu Ming smiled and replied that he was not lying. He often tied his daughter's hair. In order to learn how to tie her hair well, he also learned how to tie her hair online. It can be said that he was not a fool.
"Oh well."
Zhou Xiaobei felt that there was no harm in letting him try. After all, Gu Ming was the first person she met who was so kind to her since the end of the world. Although she was young, she still knew a lot of things. At least she could tell who was sincere to her. When she came out, her parents didn't come back after they went out. She had a vague feeling in her heart that she should have been abandoned. This was how it was played on TV. She had seen such TV.
Gu Ming touched her hair and felt that the quality of her hair was still very good. He combed it carefully several times with a comb and combed out the stuck hair. Then he rolled her hair up and tied it into a bun. He looked in the mirror. The avatar inside seems okay.
"Pretty."
"Beautiful, thank you uncle."
While talking, Xiaobei started crying again, which made Gu Ming a little overwhelmed and couldn't figure out why she was crying again.
"Xiao Bei, why are you crying again? Are you thinking of something sad?"
"I miss my parents."
Zhou Xiaobei remembered the time when her mother tied her hair, and she felt a little sad and started crying.
Gu Ming sounded a little distressed. Such a lovely daughter was abandoned by someone. Even in the end of the world, she would not be able to do such a bad thing. If he met her parents, he would let them taste the power of his iron fist. .
"Didn't uncle promise you to find your parents? Stop crying, okay?"
Gu Ming touched her head and comforted her.
"Uncle is lying. I know my parents don't want me anymore. Hum, that's how it is shown on TV, and yet you still want to lie to me."
Zhou Xiaobei didn't believe what he said at all. Although she was young, she was not easy to deceive.
Gu Ming didn't know what to say. Children nowadays are too mature and can learn many things from mobile phones and TV.
"Xiao Bei is so cute, why wouldn't your parents want you?"
"Really?"
"real.
"Then why don't they come back?"
"Maybe there was an accident and I didn't have time to come back."
"Then my parents won't be able to find me when they come back. I want to go back."
"Don't worry, uncle left a note in the supermarket. Your parents will come find you if they see it."
Gu Ming could only lie, because Xiaobei's parents could not go back.
"Until you find your parents, you can consider me as your father, Xiaobei."
"real?"
Zhou Xiaobei was a little surprised. She could feel that Gu Ming was really good to her. This child's feeling was quite reliable.
Gu Ming smiled and nodded without speaking.
"dad--"
Zhou Xiaobei happily threw herself into Gu Ming's arms and kept crying, as if she wanted to cry out the grievances and shocks she had suffered in the past two days.
Gu Ming just patted her on the back. He knew that the life she was living these days was difficult for even an adult to survive. If she was not careful, she would die, or she might be eaten by zombies.
"Gulu——"
Xiaobei's crying stopped, and his stomach growled. He was hungry, and maybe a little embarrassed, so he didn't dare to look up.
"You must be hungry. Dad is going to cook. Just wait a moment."
Gu Ming was very happy to have a daughter. With a smile on his face, he took out some toys from the system space and gave them to her to play with.
"Dad, you can do magic. It's so amazing."
Xiao Bei looked at the toy that suddenly appeared in Gu Ming's hand, smiled and clapped his hands.
"You play with toys and watch TV first. Dad is going to cook."
Gu Ming just gave her the toy, touched her head and stood up. He turned on the TV and called up the Peppa Pig animation, and then walked into the kitchen to cook.
Gu Ming brought out the prepared preserved egg and lean meat porridge, took out two bowls, filled them for one night, then picked up a spoon and fed Xiaobei.
"Open your mouth."
"Dad, I can eat it myself."
Zhou Xiaobei protested that she could eat by herself a year ago and no longer needed to be fed by adults.
"Okay then, you sit here and eat by yourself."
Gu Ming didn't expect that she would be able to eat by herself when she was only six years old. He picked her up and put her on the seat. He gave her a spoon and saw that she quickly scooped up the porridge and took a bite. Her movements were very skillful and she didn't lie to him. She immediately put it down. Heart.
After serving himself a bowl of porridge, Gu Ming also sat down to drink the porridge. He knew that Xiaobei had been eating snacks from the supermarket these days and could not tolerate hard food, so he made porridge for her to eat. After two days, Wait until her stomach gets used to it before cooking a big meal for her.
After they finished their porridge comfortably, Gu Ming played with Xiao Bei for a while, and then watched TV for an hour. Seeing that she was yawning and sleepy, he carried her into the bedroom, put her on the bed, and covered her with a quilt.
"Dad, will you sleep with me?"
Zhou Xiao Bei half-closed her eyes and said to Gu Ming.
"Of course I will sleep with you. Dad has something to do later. You go to sleep first."
Gu Ming said while patting the quilt, watching her fall asleep, with an angelic face. He kissed her forehead and left the bedroom, closing the bedroom door.
When he came to the cab, Gu Ming saw that it was already dark outside, so he asked Pangu to stop the car. The map showed that they had not yet reached the provincial capital and were still on a national highway. He did not pay much attention to the driving route, as Pangu drove all the way. He had only one request, which was to get to Binhai City as soon as possible. After all, he did not know what had happened to his cousin Gu Shaofen. If a pretty girl could not get to the official base in the first place, it would still be very dangerous. Not to mention zombies, there were also many humans who had broken through the bottom line. There was no shortage of these people in this doomsday era.
The sky had completely darkened, and the sky was full of dark clouds. The moon and stars were not visible at all. It was pitch dark outside. Gu Ming could only hear some beast roars and the roars of zombies.
Gu Ming guessed that the further north you go, the colder the temperature will be as winter approaches, and the more active the zombies will be. It would not be surprising to see zombies on the road even during the day. The official radio has been reporting some characteristics of zombies in recent days. They are infected with x substance, also called x virus, which likes low temperatures and is more active in low temperature environments. There is also x virus in the air. The surviving people or animals all have x virus in their bodies, but they have produced antibodies and have not turned into zombies. However, if a person is bitten by a zombie but not eaten by it, the balance of viruses in the human body will be broken, and the person will turn into a zombie in just ten minutes.
