Chapter 16: Let Go of That Girl, Let Me Come!

"Hey! Xiaoyi's father! In three days, the sacrifice will begin, is the sacrifice ready? ”

As soon as Guo Dong and Lian Ma heard this voice, they both trembled, their faces showed a trace of horror, and the dishes and chopsticks in their hands fell to the ground suddenly, imprinting the residue on the ground. As for Xiaoyi www.biquge.info she ate very calmly, as if nothing had happened, but she didn't have the liveliness she had before.

Guodong's father opened the door with a trembling hand, and walked in front of an old man, with a rag cloth over his left eye, a broken cigarette stick in his hand, and said in his mouth: "I can tell you!" If you can't hand over the sacrifice, you know the consequences, not only will you suffer, but even the whole village will be unlucky, if you still have a little conscience, just pay it quickly. Otherwise, even if it is a robbery at that time, you will have to be robbed! Alas, you, no one wants to, but it is God's will! None of us mortals can disobey! ”

The one-eyed old man first said with a vicious face, and then changed to a compassionate look, but there was still a cold look in his eyes, and he was smoking a dry cigarette while talking.

"Village Chief, I... I, got it... When the time comes, you... You're here to pick it up... She... ......."

Guodong's father whimpered, and the big tears of the bean slipped down his face, Guodong's father is a well-known tough guy in the village, no matter what happens, he will not admit defeat, let alone cry! But at this time, he cried, crying so embarrassed!

"Alas, Guodong, the village depends on you, you must hold on......"

The one-eyed old man gently patted Guodong's shoulder with his hand, with a sad look, and then walked out of the courtyard, and the moment he turned around, the old man's eyes burst out with a hint of joy.

Guodong's father secretly wiped his tears, barely squeezed out a smile, and walked back to the dinner table. Next, the family was silent and ate quietly. In the middle of the night, seeing that Xiaoyi and the three of them had faint tears on their faces, they had to deeply suppress the doubts in their hearts, and for a while, there was silence at the dinner table, and it could be said that the whole room was silent, only the sound of dishes and chopsticks stirring.

In the afternoon, Guodong's father and Lian's mother said that they had something to go out, and they specially explained that they should take care of Xiaoyi at midnight and never let her go out to run around. Midnight didn't think much about it, and agreed to come down, but Xiaoyi didn't say anything, but there were tears rolling in her eyes.

There was no one at home, so Midnight and Xiaoyi sat on the stone steps in front of the house, holding their chins with their hands, and quietly looking at the blue sky in the distance.

Midnight tilted her head to look at Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi lowered her eyes, and there was an indescribable sadness between her eyebrows.

"Brother"

Xiao Yi suddenly shouted, and a pair of eyes looked at Midnight faintly.

"Huh?"

"Brother, do you know what it's like to be dead?"

Midnight was stunned for a moment, looked at Xiaoyi without blinking, and quietly did not speak.

"Brother, if Xiaoyi dies, will she be able to see the outside world again?"

At this time, Xiaoyi seemed to be a different person, and the look in her eyes was very flat, as if she was asking an ordinary question.

"Uh", he stayed for a while in the middle of the night and smiled at Xiaoyi, "Silly Nizi, how can you say such a thing?" Xiaoyi won't die, my brother will take Xiaoyi to see the outside world, another completely different world! ”

"Actually, I know, I know everything, although my parents don't say it, but I do know." Xiao Yi looked at Midnight for a while, then lowered her head and said slowly. Midnight looked at Xiaoyi and saw a maturity that did not belong to her age. Before midnight could say anything, Xiao Yi continued: "In three days, the sacrifice in the village will begin. And I, the sacrifice to be used in the sacrifice, my parents hid it from me, but I already knew it.

"Uh", looking at Xiaoyi in the middle of the night, I didn't know what to say, so I had to accompany her quietly.

"It's just... It's just ......" Xiaoyi's voice was full of tears, and she paused for a moment before she continued: "Xiaoyi wants to go to school, wants to go to college, wants to go to the other side of the village, wants to see another world, I want to see the city, to see the sea, to see... Go see... Woo~"

As Xiao Yi spoke, she couldn't cry anymore, leaned on Midnight's shoulder, and sobbed one by one. The small body also shook, and soon the shoulders of Midnight were soaked. When he was rescued in the middle of the night, the clothes on his body were already in tatters, and Guodong's father changed his own clothes for him, so although the clothes were wet by Xiaoyi's crying, he still didn't feel anything.

Midnight patted Xiaoyi's little head and said softly: "Xiaoyi, you won't die, you won't die." The world is so big, you haven't even seen it, God can't bear to let such a lovely you die like this! ”

"Really?"

Xiao Yi raised her head and asked, there were tears in her eyes, full of expectation.

"Hmm"

Midnight nodded heavily, for Xiaoyi, Midnight is a heartfelt favorite, although the process of acquaintance is very short, but for him, the warmth of this short family is enough to withstand the pain he has suffered over the years. Even if he dies for this, he has no regrets, let alone for the lovely sister in front of him!

Midnight hugged Xiaoyi in his arms, his eyes full of love. Is this what relatives feel? A warmth that has never been felt before envelops Midnight's heart, this is the warmth he has never experienced!

This warmth reminded him of Ruo Lian, who had been in contact for a while, and had not seen her since she suddenly fell into a coma. She must have escaped those two beasts, Midnight prayed for her in his heart, but he was a little worried, he thought, Ruo Lian is a good person, it will be fine!

Time flies by and an afternoon flies. At dinner, although it was still full of sadness, everyone was amused by Xiaoyi's cuteness, and it was a good dinner. However, there was a little trouble when sleeping, because there were not many beds at home, and Midnight was not very big, so the couple decided to let Midnight and Xiaoyi rest together at night.

That's embarrassing!

Although Midnight is only twelve years old and doesn't understand anything, it always feels a little weird to sleep with Xiaoyi. On the contrary, Xiaoyi is not as embarrassed as midnight, and it feels very natural.

Late at night, in the middle of the night, Xiaoyi finally fell asleep, but was awakened by the strange noise in Guodong's father's house. So, in the middle of the night, he crept over and leaned on the window to listen.

"Alas, what the hell is going on today, talk!" Mother Lian shook Guodong's father's arm and urged.

"Well, the village chief said, there is a way!" Guodong's father took a deep breath and said slowly.

"Huh! There is a way, what way? You're going to say it, I'm in a hurry! ”

"Well, the way is... It's ......"

"That's it, tell me about it!"

"It's just... In the middle of the night, the village chief said that if he used Midnight to replace Xiaoyi, it would be reluctantly possible......"

"What...... God, why do you ...... us like this?"

"I really don't know what to do now? Do you really want to exchange it for midnight! ”

Hearing this, Midnight's heart skipped a beat, his eyes gradually turned gray, and then he was about to turn away.

"No! We can't be so selfish, we can't exchange Midnight, Midnight is very obedient, how can we do something sorry for him! Mother Lian roared softly.

"Well, I don't want to, but it's the only way...... Gordon's dad cried, his voice filled with deep torment.

"Even if it does, are we worthy of our own conscience? We're sorry......" Mother Lian said as she stopped crying.

"Woo... Woo..."

The couple hugged each other, and cries of grief came from the room.

After listening to Midnight, all the gray in her eyes dissipated, and she returned to the bed, looking at Xiaoyi, who was sleeping very sweetly, Midnight kissed her lightly on her forehead, and her heart had secretly decided.

"Xiaoyi, my brother will never let you be a sacrifice......"

In the next two days, Midnight and Xiaoyi's family had a very happy time, and in them, he felt the warmth of his family. This also makes the decision in Midnight's heart more and more firm day by day, things in the world are always so elusive, so unpredictable, you never know, what is the happiness that really belongs to you?

Midnight doesn't know what he will get if he does this, the warmth of his family, maybe! But he didn't hesitate, let alone regret it! For him, it is already very satisfying to be able to protect his loved one, even if he has only known each other for three days.

Anyway, I've already died once, so there's nothing to be afraid of. What he is afraid of at this moment is not death, but the feeling of loss and inability to protect!

Three days later, the sacrifice came as scheduled!

Early in the morning, there was a knock on the door, and a large group of people poured in, including the one-eyed village chief, a large group of rough men, and a middle-aged man in a Taoist uniform.

"Hey! Gordon Dad, hurry up! What about Xiaoyi? The sacrifice is about to begin, hurry up and hand it over! ”

Guodong's father and Lian's mother pulled Xiaoyi out of the back room slowly, and the couple were obviously heartbroken, and there was a little more gray hair on their heads. But Xiaoyi didn't cry or panic, but walked very calmly, but with a faint reluctance in her eyes.

When the middle-aged Taoist priest saw Xiao Yi's appearance, he was very satisfied, and kept nodding his head, his eyes full of naked appreciation.

Xiao Yi was about to step out of the house surrounded by everyone, and Guodong's father and Lian's mother behind her were already crying silently, kneeling on the ground, tears streaming down their eyes, full of reluctance......

"Stop! Let go of Xiaoyi, sacrifice, let me come! ”
