On a small island.

There are more and more trees in front of the bloody vortex, and occasionally at night you can see the mermaid with its silver tail appearing, looking at the people at the entrance of the cave.

In this way, the "little man" saw that there were fewer and fewer snake people in the cave, and the originally bustling cave gradually became deserted.

That night, "Little Man" and "Nasha" read a book together.

"Little Man" read it to "Nasha", and the two laughed because of a story in it.

After reading it, the "dwarf" closed the book and suddenly asked a question inadvertently.

"Nasha, are you willing to become a mermaid?"

He was still shaken.

As there were fewer and fewer people in the cave, he seemed to realize that some fates and events were inevitable.

Sometimes, it's not whether you are willing to choose, but that you don't have a choice.

After speaking, he added another sentence.

"The mermaid seems quite beautiful, and looks very similar to the snake man."

"Other than not being able to speak or be out in the sun, it seems pretty good."

"Nasha" asked him: "Are you willing to become a tree man?"

The "dwarf" didn't speak, but just asked: "I asked first, Nasha, you have to answer me first."

However, what the "dwarf" didn't expect was that "Nasha" expressed her refusal very clearly.

The "dwarf" didn't understand: "Why?"

But the girl told him: "Because this body was given to me by my mother."

She lowered her head and murmured in a low voice: "If I look like anything else, my mother might not recognize me."

"Nasha's" childish words sometimes make the "dwarf" want to laugh.

But "Nasha" has always been just a child, and apart from his appearance and height, he has long since become an adult. Thinking about it this way, it feels normal.

At this moment, the "dwarf" also smiled helplessly, and then let out a long sigh.

Yes, no one’s body is a gift from their mother.

Who is willing to abandon his body and become another strange race that he has never seen before?

The "dwarf" carefully blew out the lamp, and then spoke.

"go to bed early."

After saying that, he covered her with the large and beautiful blanket he gave to the girl.

"Get warm!"

"The blanket I had when I was little was too small. Now that I have this blanket, I will never feel cold again."

"If you cover it thicker, you won't get sick."

The girl was lying on the bed and said happily: "Short, you are the best to me."

When the "dwarf" heard what the other party said, he seemed happier than the girl: "Of course, we are family!"

But within a few days, the girl also became ill.

Even though the dwarf protected her very well, he still couldn't stop her body from getting weaker day by day.

This is, after all, a place unsuitable for ordinary snake-man bodies to survive.

The dwarf had no choice but to take Nasha to the edge of the bloody whirlpool at night and plead with Captain Breman.

"Please give her some life energy!"

It happens like this every time, and it looks better for the time being.

But it didn't take long for it to recover again.

Because this only treats the symptoms and not the root cause. The problem is not the girl’s body, but the external environment.

Repeatedly, the girl was tortured.

Later, the problem became more serious.

This time, it was internal organ failure.

The dwarf was waiting by the bed, his face pale and his eyes wide.

It was as if the sick one was not the girl, but himself.

He looked at the girl on the bed, raising his hand for a while and putting it down for a while.

A look of helplessness.

The girl on the bed said to him, and in her words she still talked about the existence that she didn't know whether she was a real mother or a mother.

She grabbed the blanket and stroked it gently, her eyes closing and opening for a while.

"dwarf!"

"I miss my mother a little. Her body is big, soft and white."

"No matter how strong the wind is outside, I don't feel cold at all."

The girl was also pale in pain, so she kept trying to say something to relieve her pain.

Suddenly, she called to the other party.

"dwarf."

At this time, the "dwarf" hurriedly raised his head.

"ah?"

He stood up and looked at the other person and asked with concern.

"What's wrong?"

"Do you want something?"

But in the end, the other party just asked him:

"Can you tell me again, what is the Kingdom of God like?"

"In the Kingdom of God, don't people grow up?"

The "dwarf" was a little stupid and didn't understand what the relationship between the Kingdom of God and growing up was.

However, the girl said next.

"Because the older people grow up, the more troubles they have."

"When I grow up, I will say goodbye to my mother. When I grow up, I will meet many, many people, and then they will turn into trees and people, and they will no longer care about me."

"When you grow up, happy things will turn into unhappy things."

"When you grow up, everything you gain will gradually be lost."

The girl frowned in pain, then pursed her lips and said.

"When you grow up, you won't be happy."

The "dwarf" saw the girl's painful look and immediately wanted to pick her up: "Let's go, let's go find Captain Breman."

However, at this time, the girl refused: "I don't want to go."

"The dwarf" asked: "Why?"

The girl said: "Because it will be more uncomfortable next time."

The "dwarf" didn't know what to do anymore at this time. He looked at the girl's painful and pleading eyes.

He could only nod his head and pursed his lips repeatedly.

"Okay, okay."

"No, we won't go."

"We won't go, don't be afraid, we won't go!"

"Nasha!"

"We're not going."

After comforting the other party, he stumbled towards the outside.

As he was walking, halfway through, one side of his body started to twitch for some unknown reason.

It was as if he couldn't control his body. You could see traces of blood emerging from the bottom of his eyes, as if they were about to occupy his entire eye sockets.

It wasn't until he walked outside that he laughed wildly.

Although he was laughing, he couldn't feel any real laughter in his laughter. It was as if some organ in his body was out of control, making people laugh wildly uncontrollably.

"Ha ha ha ha!"
