Chapter 33: There is green tea flavored toothpaste
Shi Yuebai, who was inexplicably named, tried hard to stretch his neck without a neck.
He glanced at Shi Xiangrui who was surrounded by mercenaries.
Shi Xiangrui was washed clean and fair, and his face was no longer red and wrinkled like when he was just born.
The furry little head was squirming restlessly in the cradle.
Shi Xiangrui opened his little mouth and made smacking sounds.
"I'm hungry, I must be hungry."
Chen Yong guessed and shouted, "Get her something to eat, quickly."
The several burly men surrounding the cradle became extremely nervous in an instant.
Everyone, including Yi Zhe, became flustered.
"What does such a small child eat?"
"The last time I was outside the city, I saw
The mercenary who spoke turned pale.
He actually wanted to search his memory to find out what such a small baby could eat in the wasteland.
But all the images of newborn babies in my head are very uncomfortable.
Either they abandon the child after birth, or they sell the child after birth.
As for what would become of those babies that were sold, no one dared to delve into it.
Because they are afraid that if they get to the end, the most terrifying and darkest side of human nature will be exposed.
That would make everyone in the wasteland despair and die.
The mercenaries were in a panic and began to think of ways to get food for Shi Xiangrui.
Shi Yuebai ordered Shi Yaoyao to pick up Shi Xiangrui from the cradle.
She touched Shi Xiangrui's little head, and Shi Xiangrui hummed and closed his eyes and fell asleep again.
"Why did she fall asleep again?"
Yi Zhe found it quite novel, with a clear look in his eyes, and asked Yue Bai.
Shi Yuebai said, "She has always been like this, different from other babies."
Most babies who survive to be born in the wasteland are different from normal babies.
Either they are missing limbs, or they are born with abnormalities that can be seen at first glance.
A baby that is too normal is actually a rare existence in the wasteland.
Yi Zhe looked carefully at Shi Xiangrui in Shi Yaoyao's arms again.
He understood but didn't say anything, but Chen Yong beside him said with great regret,
"Look at this good kid..." How come he's mute? He can't even cry.
Yi Zhe turned around and glared at Chen Yong.
Chen Yong pursed his lips and stopped talking.
He has always been a straightforward person who speaks without thinking.
Chen Yong smiled apologetically at Shi Yuebai.
Shi Yuebai pursed her lips and did not blame Chen Yong.
Not to mention Shi Yaoyao, she is one of those children who obviously has intellectual problems at first glance.
A child like this couldn't hear what Chen Yong hadn't finished saying.
"Yaoyao, continue to scavenge."
Shi Yuebai instructed Shi Yaoyao to put Shi Xiangrui in the cradle.
As he watched, Yaoyao shook his head and turned around to flip the stone with uncoordinated hands and feet.
Yi Zhe turned around and sat on a big rock next to Shi Yuebai.
"Yuebai, why are you picking up so many useless things?"
Shi Yuebai, sitting on a flatbed cart, was looking through the box of toothpaste beside him with his arms, which were thicker than his fat thighs.
"It's quite useful. These things are what we urgently need."
The survivors in the wasteland are tortured by the lack of survival resources and only care about food and drink.
But Shi Yuebai is different. Since Shi Yuebai traveled into this body, she has not eaten a single bite of food.
After she solved the most basic problem of food and clothing, she naturally wanted to pursue a more comfortable quality of life.
Yi Zhe sighed and looked at Shi Yuebai deeply again.
What a pity for the girl.
Among the people in the Shi family, only Shi Ersao and Shi Yuebai have normal IQs.
At least that's what Yizhe used to think.
But Shi Yuebai has a bad temper.
In the past, Yi Zhe could only communicate with Shi Ersao.
Now Yi Zhe and Shi Yuebai can communicate without any obstacles.
But Yi Zhe could never understand what Shi Yuebai did.
Perhaps Shi Yuebai's IQ was more or less affected by the radiation from this wasteland.
It’s just that compared to other people in the Shi family, Shi Yuebai’s IQ has declined, but it’s not very noticeable.
After a while, Chen Yong stood on a pile of ruins and called Yi Zhe.
Yi Zhe stood up and said, "Then, Yuebai, you go find it first."
"Brother Yizhe will take you back later."
He symbolically dusted off the dust on his body, picked up the weapon in his hand, and moved quickly in two or three steps to reach Chen Yong.
Seeing that all the mercenaries around him had left, Shi Yuebai waved to Shi Yaoyao.
"Do you want to brush your teeth?"
Shi Yuebai took out a tube of toothpaste, tore open the packaging box, and looked at Shi Yaoyao with anticipation.
"This box of toothpaste is a year past its expiration date. Yaoyao, can you try to see if it's still usable?"
Shi Yuebai took out a bottle of clean water and a brand new toothbrush from Shi Yaoyao's backpack.
Handed it to her.
Shi Yaoyao wore a black, crude-looking radiation detector on her wrist.
That was exchanged from Guaiguai.
Every member of the Shi family wears a similar radiation detector on their wrist.
【Detection: 0 radiation pollution of purified water. 】
A line of words appeared on the radiation detector watch.
Because he didn't want to attract attention, Shi Yuebai asked everyone in the Shi family to mute the radiation detector.
Shi Yaoyao saw this line of words on the detector watch.
Her little face paused, and an expression similar to thinking appeared on her face.
"Auntie...read?"
These days, her aunt asked her to practice calligraphy every day.
A new realization suddenly emerged in Shi Yaoyao's confused mind.
It turns out that this is called a "character".
She seemed to think this "word" was quite interesting, like some new game.
Shi Yuebai pulled Shi Yaoyao's hand over.
Seeing this, Yaoyao couldn't control herself and shook her head.
Shi Yuebai raised his hand and pressed it on the top of Shi Yaoyao's head, forcing her not to shake her head.
"Come, let auntie teach you."
Shi Yuebai pointed at the line of words on the detector watch and taught Shi Yaoyao to read them one by one.
Shi Yaoyao stammered, "Detection... 0 radiation... polluted clean water..."
"Test...purify water..."
She learned word by word and repeated word by word.
After repeating this dozens of times, Shi Yaoyao squatted on the ground and brushed his teeth with the toothpaste and toothbrush given by Shi Yuebai.
Shi Yuebai looked carefully and found that the toothpaste could even produce bubbles.
She couldn't help but find a new toothbrush from the box of toothpaste.
Together with Shi Yaoyao, one squatted in front of the ruins, the other sat in front of the ruins, and the two of them brushed their teeth together.
Shi Yuebai opened his mouth and after rinsing his mouth, he felt much better.
Ah, the taste of fresh breath.
As expected, before the wasteland, there was a highly civilized world with highly developed technology and extremely abundant materials.
Just have toothpaste.
There's even green tea flavored toothpaste!
From today on, Shi Yuebai will brush his teeth every morning and evening.
Not only her, but everyone in the Shi family has to do this.
The holiday is coming soon, what are you going to do?
