One, two, three, four, five...
Five little people, reaching only up to Gu Mian's waist.
Indeed, five Little Dwarfs.
However, these five Little Dwarfs looked a bit odd; it seemed they weren't naturally short, but habitually hunchbacked.
Their arms and legs bent unnaturally, and even their backs arched high, like a camel's hump in the desert.
It appears the fairy tale being enacted here is 'Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs'? Although, they seem to be two dwarfs short...
The Little Dwarfs, carrying shovels and hoes, were merry and buoyant, humming songs. It looked like they had just finished their work and were heading home?
Seeing these hunchbacked people jumping and singing, Gu Mian almost feared they'd sprain their backs.
Gu Mian stroked his chin and swiftly took two steps forward, wanting to get a clearer look.
Just then, a RUSTLE RUSTLE sound suddenly came from the bushes nearby.
Gu Mian quickly turned his head to look in that direction.
