The familiar long blue hair and familiar face in my memory are now lying quietly in the freezer, silent. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Mother's ......"

"Is she really alive?"

Xia Li never thought that her mother would be frozen here by the man in front of her.

The little girl reached out and touched the surface of the ice coffin, and in an instant, a trace of coldness rushed along the palm of her hand to her body, and even her heart was beaten by cold.

She immediately retracted her hand, subconsciously feeling that she should stay away from this ice coffin.

Then, the little girl kept rubbing her hands, trying to get back a little warmth, but the coldness in her heart was difficult to get away, and her little body kept shaking.

"It's cold, it's cold. ”

"Charlie, are you okay?" Kuy looked at her nervously and worriedly, and when he walked over, he stepped back when he touched her, touching her skin, and his face suddenly changed.

"Charlie, why are you frozen like this?"

"Father's ......"

Charlie's face turned pale, just as she had seen more than once in the past, as she had seen when she was sick.

"Did you relapse?" Shocked by the thought, Cuy quickly picked her up and hurried out.

"I was so careless!"

Xia Li felt that the more she stayed here, the more cold she felt, she shivered with cold, and her cold teeth chattered, but fortunately, her father hurriedly carried her out of this room, and then she felt better.

Xia Li remembered the face she had just seen in her mind, and remembered the past.

I used to snuggle up on each other's laps and take a nap, I would sing beautiful music in the language of the water tribe to lull myself to sleep, I would hold my little hand and take myself out for a walk on a sunny day, and I would run to the kitchen to prepare my favorite food for myself.

Her mother, Emily, was a beautiful and gentle mother.

"Mother's ......"

"Father. ”

Xia Li called out to her father, and tears fell from her face, and the tears turned into blue pearls when they fell to the ground.

Xia Li has always had this secret, and even her father didn't know it, it was her mother who specially told her not to cry, no matter what, not to be sad, to be happy. Because, when the aquarium is sad, the tears will condense into pearls. This matter must not be known to others, and it is better not to shed tears in front of strangers.

"Xia Li, don't worry, there is a fireplace in the front room, you will be able to warm up soon!"

“…… No, father, I want to ask you. ”

Xia Li felt very tired and tired, but despite this, she was a little better than just now.

"Father, mother, she is very cold, you put her in such a cold place...... Mother, is she really okay?"

"And, father, do you hate Charlie?"

"How can it be ......?"

Cuoy's footsteps slowed, and he looked at Xia Li's face, remembering some of the past.

“…… Father, do you have to leave Xia Li behind? When her mother was away, Xia Li felt so sad that she could no longer hear her mother's voice or see her mother's face. ”

"There must be other ways to save my mother, Uncle Baker must have a way. ”

"There is no other way. ”

Cuy put down Charlie and shook his head.

"You won't understand. ”

"Father......!"

Xia Li felt unspeakably uncomfortable in her heart, hearing that her father not only did not come to save herself, but also wanted to sell herself.

For the first time, Xia Li knew what it was like to be betrayed. Then, knowing her father's reason and her mind being changed, Xia Li no longer knew her true mood.

But Xia Li herself very much hopes that her mother will be alive and that she will hear her voice again.

This mood has become contradictory, extremely contradictory, Xia Li doesn't know what to do.

(How?)

Father almost seemed to give himself to those people, Xia Li thought of the eye monster, and felt scared in her heart, what would happen to her?

Charlie gave her a begging look, but Cuy turned her head sideways.

“……”

"Father, Xia Li seems to be able to understand, and it seems that she can't understand. ”

"I'm sorry. ”

(Mother, what should I do?)

Cue led Charly into the fireplace room, and in front of the beating flames, Charly felt much more comfortable than before.

Cuy was silent, and Charlie was silent.

Suddenly, someone knocked desperately on the door outside, and before Kuy could speak, the person standing outside came in directly.

"Ajit!" the other man, a shadow mage, walked towards Cuy and Charly.

"The elders are preparing for the king's ceremony, and sacrifices are needed now. ”

"Isn't the ceremony tomorrow?"

"Something else happens, the ceremony must be advanced, okay, don't ask so much, come over quickly, don't procrastinate. If you upset an elder, you know the consequences. ”

Cuy was surprised, turned his head to look at Xia Li, and said to her, "Xia Li, the ceremony should be carried out in advance, let's go over together." ”

"Ritual ......?"

Xia Li was stunned for a moment, revealing a smile full of bitterness and sadness.

"Father, what will happen to me at the ceremony?"

“…… Am I going to die?"

Xia Li questioned Kuy word by word, and when she said these few words, the little girl's heart was filled with unseen sadness and sadness, even despair.

"Let's go. ”

Kuy took a few steps closer to Charlie and took the little hand.

（…… Perhaps, for the last time)

A sense of unbearability flashed in Kuy's heart, and that unbearability quickly disappeared, completely disappeared, and thus replaced it with coldness. For Emily's sake, sacrifices had to be made.

One for another.

This is something that Kuy has decided a long time ago, and it is impossible to change, no matter how he looks at his own daughter.

He is such a selfish and cruel father, for the only wish in his heart.

Xia Li was forcibly held by Kuy, although she had imagined many times that she was held by her father and the two walked on the street together, but it would never be the current situation. Xia Li felt her father's toughness, and she was duty-bound, unable to refuse, and did not imagine the warmth she had ever longed for when she was with her family.

Xia Li was forcibly taken out, and with strong strength, she took her little hand and walked outside.

(Who can come to my rescue?)

With every step, Xia Li's heart sank a centimeter.

(scared...... ）

"I'm so scared ......"

The road in front of you seems to lead to hell.

However, the footsteps did not stop because of the little girl's whisper, but quickened their pace and ran forward more rapidly.

"Why me?"

"I'm sorry ......"

A doorway appears in view.

"It's here, hurry, the elders are waiting for you inside!" the shadow mage urged.

Xia Li raised her head, and at this time, her face was already full of tears.

"Eh! it really deserves to be a first-class sacrifice, and the hybrid of the human race and the water tribe can give birth to such a pure child. The shadow mage next to him exclaimed, watching the blue pearls fall one after the other.

"Father......!"

Cuy held out his hands and opened his mouth at the same time.

"You don't need me anymore. ”

As soon as the words fell, he pushed Xia Li in, and he pushed his daughter into the abyss.
