Fairy Tale: Little Red Riding Hood's Wolf Mentor

Chapter 55 After Falling Asleep
"Bai Xue, thank you for your hard work. Come and have dinner with us."

A dwarf forced a smile on his ugly face.

"Those clothes are very clean, thank you."

Another dwarf, also acting like a normal person, said with concern.

"Pulu is back today, and those evil people in the forest haven't left yet. You'll have to stay with us for a while longer."

The dwarf next to the Poro also spoke.

But only after seeing these dwarves in private could Poro truly feel the sense of disobedience, a chill running straight up to his head.

These dwarves are all acting!

At this moment, they are like kind old people, and their ugly appearance is no longer so scary under the words.

"Thank you, thank you."

Snow White showed gratitude on her face, and her voice was as sweet as the sound of nature.

She walked forward with standard court steps and sat elegantly at the dining table. In front of her, in an extra eighth bowl, there was a meal prepared for her by several dwarves.

"Outside, no matter who it is, after seeing me... they will go a little crazy. I... don't want to go out anymore."

Snow White lowered her head somewhat sadly.

Poro forcibly controlled his body and shifted his gaze elsewhere. This abnormal disturbance beyond his spirit was enough to cause considerable damage to his body!

But the dwarves didn't seem to have such concerns.

They still used kind words, as if speaking to friends from the neighborhood, to comfort her:

"It's okay, then stay here, no matter how long you want."

"Yeah, just treat this place as your home."

Snow White was even more grateful, and her eyes even turned red:
"Thank you. I'll help you make the beds, do the laundry, and sew... I won't be a burden to you!"

The dwarves comforted and laughed.

All the things they talked about, as well as their actions and expressions, sounded like kind old men. If Poro didn't know what they really looked like, he would probably be kept in the dark as well!

But... why do these dwarves do this?

Since they are not affected by Snow White, then why... do they still take her in and deceive Snow White?

Could it be that Snow White's appearance makes them kind?
Poro was full of doubts, but he couldn't ask directly. He just followed the other dwarves and Snow White and ate the food in the bowl.

Snow White's appearance is still etched in my memory.

This made him feel that the food had lost a lot of its flavor.

No, this is not right!

Every time Poro briefly thought of Snow White, her perfect appearance would instantly appear - and at the same time, his body would feel a strange restlessness!
No, it can't go on like this!

Fortunately, Poro's soul would not be affected by this. In the spiritual world, Poro erased Snow White's appearance inch by inch, forcing himself to forget and not recall it.

Then change into Lake's appearance.

Well, much more comfortable.

The Poro decided to reduce the frequency of eye contact with Snow White without drawing attention to himself.

Then he lowered his head and ate his meal quickly.

The sky outside the window has turned dark, and the dishes have been washed.

The dwarfs took Snow White to the back of the house, to a bedroom with a white brick floor.

Inside the room, the jade-white stone pillar wrapped with vines stood in the center of the house, and small beds were placed in a circle, covered with clean quilts.

"Pulu is back today. In the next cycle, it will be Guji's turn to go out and patrol the forest."

One of the dwarves pointed to one of the seven beds towards Snow White, then looked at the other dwarf and said, "Guji, is that okay?"

Through the previous conversations among the dwarves and their exchanges at the dinner table, Poro had almost figured out the names of the dwarves.

The order of seating at the table is as follows:

The big dwarf clangs, the second dwarf snaps, the third dwarf snaps, the fourth dwarf creaks, the fifth dwarf bats, the sixth dwarf puffs, and... the seventh dwarf gurgles.

"Of course, I'll bring back some new prey."

The dwarf named Guji smiled kindly and nodded at Snow White. "Snow White, you can sleep in my bed for the next twelve days."

"Thank you, Grandpa Guji."

Snow White thanked him softly, walked to the bed, lay down on it, and covered herself with the quilt.

Afterwards, the other dwarves also found their own beds and lay down on them. Poro also went to the empty bed and lay down on it.

Finally, the dwarf named Guji walked to Snow White's window in the dim candlelight of the bedroom and gently placed his hand on Snow White's forehead.

"Sweet dreams, Snow White."

As he spoke, a purple light flashed in his eyes.

Then, Snow White's breathing gradually became steady and she fell into a deep sleep.

On the other side, Poro was not sleepy at all.

I heard Guji's footsteps walking out of the room. After a while, the footsteps became louder again. Guji was back.

Then, there was the sound of some kind of container being placed on the ground.

"She has fallen into a deep sleep."

After a while, the dwarf named "Guji" spoke again.

There was no longer any pretense of gentleness and kindness in his words, and they even seemed a little more eerie than during the day.

At this time, the Poro, who was not asleep to begin with, heard the sound of other dwarves who had left their beds getting out of bed.

So, Poro also quickly got up.

The six dwarfs walked to the wall facing the end of their beds and took down a lamp hanging on it.

What are they going to do?!

Poro was a little confused, but he could only follow the actions of the other dwarves and take down the lamp corresponding to "Pulu".

But then, the other six dwarves actually raised their hands, and a faint purple light flashed on their fingertips, which then pointed into the lantern.

Then with a sneer!
The lanterns then lit up with dark purple flames!
what? !

Poro's expression froze and his legs twitched, but then he stopped wanting to escape, and with a quick thought, he reached for his waist.

A match appeared in his hand, he lit it, and quickly reached into the lantern—

call……

The Poro breathed a sigh of relief.

lit!
And... it was the same dark purple flame!

Was there some kind of magic cast inside the lantern? Or some special fuel?

Poro was a little confused, but he knew nothing about magic, so he could only watch what the dwarves were going to do -

Those six dwarves are... dancing!?

That absurd and weird scene instantly impacted Poro's mind.

The dwarves, holding lanterns burning with purple flames, began to twist their bodies around the pillar in the center of the bedroom, but it would be better to say—

That's more like an extremely abnormal twisting movement!

To be more precise...

It was like a series of irrational actions such as being drunk, having epilepsy, doing shaman dance, being possessed by evil spirits, etc., all mixed together, but strangely he did not fall down!
Depend on!
Dancing at midnight, huh?

But in order to avoid being discovered, the Poro disguised as the dwarf "Pulu" had to learn to jump together.

As for the action...

It was to adapt and interweave the series of pleasing movements learned in previous lives, such as radio gymnastics, aerobics, cheerleading, disco, etc., and then accelerate them to a state where they would not fall...

Are you dancing while others are sleeping?
Is this the traditional culture of the dwarves?!

But as he danced, Poro discovered... this unusual dance began to produce some abnormal changes!

Seven dark purple lights began to rise in the dance.

Poro felt... under the illumination of these purple lights, his body began to stir strangely. He even felt that even if he didn't control it...

The body will also dance wildly on its own!
The faint purple flames spread in the dim room.

The next moment, Poro's pupils contracted, and even greater astonishment suppressed his surprise at the changes in his body!
He finally understood where the inexplicable sense of disharmony he had felt earlier came from.

Where the purple light shines.

It's like a curtain being slowly lifted!

The originally spotless white floor tiles were now covered in reddish-brown blood stains, which slowly climbed and extended in all directions. The originally bland air was gradually filled with a strong fishy smell!

Strange shadows danced in the firelight.

The clean curtain slid down, gradually revealing the true appearance of the devil's cave behind it!
