"In the morning, when Xue Song woke up, he saw a white mist", and my story began again.When he woke up, Xue Song hugged his knees and sat curled up under a big tree, with protruding tree roots under his buttocks; beside his ears was the sound of dense birdsong.A low voice said: "Report to the Lord, it's dawn."Xue Song looked up and saw an olive-colored girl standing leaning against a tree with a red ribbon tied around her neck. She repeated what she had just said.Xue Song couldn't help asking: Who is the Grand Master?The red thread replied: It's you.You are the master.Xue Song asked again: I am the elder, who are you?The red thread replied: You are a little bitch.Xue Song said: So that's the case, I understand it all.Although he said he understood, he still didn't understand why he woke up here.He also didn't understand why Hongxian couldn't help laughing.The place is surrounded by dense wild chrysanthemums and thatch, with only a small open space in the middle, that is to say, they are tightly surrounded by bushes.Later, Red Thread asked him to pick up his own bow and arrow, and go out to have a look—she led the way first, carefully walking through the grass, trying not to make any noise.Xue Song imitated her movements, but he didn't know why he did it, and he didn't know where he was going; but he followed the red line closely, he was afraid that the olive-colored body in front would disappear into the tall grass.

Dawn is also a difficult time for me.Ever since I was hit by a car, I've had to brood in the morning thinking I could remember something when I actually couldn't—a painful obsession.The way to overcome this problem is to think about Xue Song.When it was foggy in the morning, Hong Xian and Xue Song sneaked through the woods.The red line also kept reminding: "Master Qi, there is a pit here."Or: Master, please take a big step, there is a ditch under the grass.Wherever he went, the vegetation became denser and denser, and the terrain became more and more rugged, climbing up a ridge for a while, and going down a ditch for a while.Xue Song felt that this place was very strange, as if he had arrived at another planet.After turning a few turns, Xue Song felt dazed and dizzy—this is what people feel when they are lost, and Xue Song is more than just lost at this time.The red line suddenly stood still and pushed aside the grass.Looking in the direction she pointed, there was a dead buffalo lying inside, already flattened, and the grass came out from the broken fur.On the bull's head stood a bird with green feathers and a red crown, with long and thin feet, a bit like a heron.This kind of bird is probably hard to see, so Xue Song said: Little bitch, will you take me to see the bird?Red thread said no; then covered his mouth and laughed again, and said: Master, you are so funny.Xue Song was a little annoyed, and shouted in a low voice: What is really funny?Hong Xian put away his smile, took half a step back, and said with a blessing: "Yes."The little bitch deserves death.Then she continued to lead the way, but her shoulders were shaking, as if laughing wildly.Xue Song followed her, thinking in his heart: Why do I not understand anything about this morning?

As I said, Xue Song grew up under the control of an old whore, and then set off to make contributions.He remembered this incident very clearly, but things after that were a little unclear.For example, how he came to this red soil hillside, and how he was pulled off his horse by his soldiers to beat chestnuts and so on.He still vaguely remembered that he was hacked yesterday and then suffered from heatstroke.At night, he was besieged by another twenty people and almost died.Waking up again this morning in the grass and trudging through the bushes.I sucked in the cold mist in my nose, and I couldn't breathe immediately.It is very difficult for people to understand what these things have to do with making meritorious deeds.He couldn't figure out where he was going now.Then he caught a cold and started sneezing.It seems to say: Please keep quiet, sir.Then he said: "My lord, please don't sneeze, other people have ears too."In the end she simply turned around, covered Xue Song's mouth, and shouted into his ear: You son of a bitch!Cover your mouth when you sneeze and turn away!Are you going to kill us?Xue Song felt that the little bitch in front of him was really weird.

In the morning, the hanging human head woke up from the dream, and suddenly found himself jumping high in the sky, and there was a white mist below.It was terrified and felt that it was falling.As mentioned, it was hung from a branch and could not fall.So it immediately felt like it was being grabbed from the back of its head and suspended in the air.At this moment, it felt that its entire scalp was numb and painful.At the same time, it also found itself empty from the neck down.Clouds of mist, pushed by an imperceptible breeze, passed where its former body had been, causing intense terror.I haven't figured out which one is more frightening than waking up losing my body or waking up losing my memory. In short, the human head is remembering its beautiful body, thinking it is red and blue consist of.One possibility is this: the body glows bluish, with only dark red shadows on the nipples, nails, etc.Another possibility is that the body glows pink, with shades of lilac.It is not clear which of these two memories is more real.

At the same time, the little prostitute also woke up from the dream and found that she was tied up tightly and had a smelly sock stuffed in her mouth, and she also found it difficult to adapt.Then she lowered her head and looked at the shocking ropes on her body.All in all, dawn is a scary time, unless you stay up all night, you may find that you have lost your past, your body, or you may find yourself like a fish jumping on the chopping board to be slaughtered. In the morning, the old whore was sitting in the corridor of the wooden house, wearing a linen gown.Feeling sleepy, but unable to go to sleep, she took out a brass chamber pot and practiced throwing stones into it, which also tinkled; meanwhile, she squinted at the assassins and mercenaries Saw on the edge of the trench.Her situation is not good: she asks someone to kill Xue Song, but Xue Song is not dead; so she has been completely exposed.But she wasn't in a hurry either.Although her fate is unpredictable, since it has been completely exposed, there is no need to worry.Some are in a hurry, they are assassins under siege.Mercenaries and assassins face off in the center of the fort.These soldiers are big, naked men with disheveled hair, standing on the edge of the ditch, with their chests upright, their big bellies, and smiles like Mona Lisa on their faces; Down.One thing must be explained is that on their protruding bellies, the side of the navel is concave, but protruding.This means that it is not a fat belly, but a belly that is used to eating rough food and has a large large intestine; these people have round and big heads, and they all have whiskers.And those assassins were also the same group of burly men who retreated into the trench with a nervous expression and took the knife in their hands.And just like that, the dawn appeared above them.In the beginning, the first sun shone on the forest tops, and after a while there was fog.Just as the fog began to rise, the mercenaries retreated.But instead of going back to their homes, they retreated outside the stronghold to guard the intersection; when they left, they said: Since they came to kill Xue Song, kill Xue Song; if they can't kill Xue Song, don't even think about leaving.Now the attitude of these soldiers is finally clear: they want Xue Song to die, but they refuse to do it themselves.So, if someone comes to kill Xue Song, they don't care.When those people killed Xue Song and retreated, they didn't care.And only when those people wanted to leave without killing Xue Song, they came out to block the way.Because of these soldiers, the village has become a mousetrap. It is easy to get in, but a bit difficult to get out.
