In the military chamber of the Imperial City, the old king harshly reprimanded General Liz Sinro, who had returned from his wounds:

"General, do you know how troublesome it can be for every rebel general you kill?"

"I know, but I'm not going to kill Dundeca, it's just a ......"

"Don't tell me it's an accident!" The old king interrupted Xinluo: "You didn't succeed in completing this task, so naturally you won't be credited." Killing a rebel general doesn't mean you're a hero! ”

Sinro had a hard time telling, and no one could prove that what he said was true. His compassion led him to let go of one of the few Dundeonfish, which were among the same marine bony fishes as Goulids, after witnessing Dundeca's death. They were in danger of extinction, so he let go of the remaining Dunkle's fish. And this becomes the next dangerous hidden danger, because the fierce and brutal Dun's fish is likely to lose control of his emotions when he witnesses the killing of his pet owner. After a period of recuperation, he made a comeback, specializing in hunting merfolk for food, and this was the reason why the old king was really concerned and deeply anxious.

Marine ecology has relatively complex rules of equilibrium, and the intervention of merfolk cannot completely change the situation. Unless the most dangerous species of creature is slaughtered to the brink in order to protect all the objects it hunts, the merfolk's reputation and honor will be lost. They have become butchers themselves, so they also try to keep the vicious Dundeca's and the like alive, hoping that Dundeka will control the Dundenian and reduce the killing of mermaids. It would be better if the wicked could be reformed, and saving one wicked person can sometimes save many innocent people.

It's just that the vision is the vision, and the reality is the reality. After Dundeca's death, his favorite Dundeon's fish collapsed in all directions, which may be an act of letting the tiger return to the mountain. God knows if the Dunkle will live in peace, or if it will go on a rampage to hunt and eat mermaids as the old king of the mermaid clan feared, it will be terrible.

In a room in the Imperial Palace of the Taiping Imperial City, a childish little girl held a delicate square box in one hand and a slender stick in the other, playing with interest with a crab in the box.

The gray-yellow crab was nothing special, but the little girl with a heart tied a few small bows on it with small ribbons. The box is exquisite, and the crab naturally has to be dressed up exquisitely. In the face of the "provocation" of the little girl's slender stick, the crab waved its claws in response, as if to say, "Hehe! I'm not afraid of you. ”

I don't know when the queen of the imperial city walked into the room, and the little girl was still playing, completely unaware of the visitor.

"Oh, dear darling! You are Princess Xuerong of the Taiping Imperial City, you are ten years old today, why are you still playing with little crabs? It's going to be a joke if you spread it! The queen said as she took the box from the little girl's hand.

The little girl had no intention of retrieving the box, although she liked its contents. But suddenly he realized and said:

"yes, I'm ten years old, so I shouldn't be playing with little crabs. Thank you mom, you reminded me. ”

The princess got up and was about to leave the door without looking back, when she was stopped by the queen and asked:

"Where is this going? Baby. ”

"I won't tease the little crab in the future, of course I'm going to find a bigger one!"

"Ahh The queen was taken aback: "What? Looking for bigger crabs! This...... Where can I find it? ”

"If you don't have it in the imperial city, go outside the city to find it!" The princess's answer was simple and innocent, completely forgetting her identity as a princess.

"No! You're a princess, how can you just leave the palace and go outside to catch crabs. Just let the guards do it, God knows why you like crabs so much. The outside world is in danger! ”

"Mom! Queen mother! This attic is like a little prison for me that has been trapped for ten years. I felt like a little crab in that box, and I was going to suffocate if I stayed in it. Just let me go out for a walk! "The princess is coquettish.

The queen is more cautious about whether she agrees to her daughter's begging, which is three small contents; The first is whether to let the princess play with crabs, the second is whether to let the princess catch big crabs, and the third is whether to let the princess go out of the palace. There is no doubt that that cannot be promised. The three small contents are undignified and may even be dangerous, let alone a princess. But today is the princess's birthday, and it's not a solution to make her unhappy. So he replied:

"Xue Rong, today is your tenth birthday, guess what gift your mother prepared for you? I wanted to wait until the dinner party started, but as long as you are willing to stay in the room and don't run around, Mom will give it to you now, okay baby? ”

The princess's big eyes turned slyly, and she was also thinking of a way to kill two birds with one stone:

"Okay Mom, what's the gift?"

The queen took out a mysterious black box from her bosom and handed it to the princess, who eagerly broke the box. I saw a black pendant as thick as a finger inside:

"Huh! What should I be a gift? The little princess said with a disdainful face: "It's just a black stone!"

"Hmmm! My silly darling, this is a precious piece of amber. It's not easy for anyone to get! ”

"What is amber?" The princess asked.

"Amber is a qualitative fossil in ancient times tens of millions of years ago, when the resin exuded by some plants mainly pine trees, and then dripped through the high-pressure and high-heat extrusion of the earth's rock layers, resulting in qualitative changes. Exquisitely lightweight, warm and delicate. Most of the amber is transparent and very beautiful.

There are also many kinds of amber, according to the color of the golden amber, golden blue amber, green tea amber, black tea amber, blood amber, pam amber, flower amber, brown red amber, blue amber, green amber, insect amber, dense wax, water amber, Ming amber, fragrant amber, stone amber, root amber and so on, my mother can't remember how many kinds.

But among them, the pam is the most precious, and you are lucky enough to get one today as a 10th birthday present! ”

The princess looked delighted, perhaps she really liked the gift. So let her mother tie her around her neck, love beauty is the nature of every innocent girl.

In front of a large mirror, the mother and daughter smiled happily. It didn't take long for the queen to suddenly remember that she still had something to deal with, so she told her daughter:

"Let's talk about it, don't run around if you stay in the house today, mom has to be out of company."

"Okay, Mom!"

After seeing the queen leave the room, the princess began to embrace loneliness again, and she turned back to pick up the box containing the crab. The crab inside blinked its small eyes and purred small blisters in its mouth. It's like a gloating mischievous egg laughing at a girl who is also locked up.
