Chapter 210: The Corpse Digger
At this time, the old couple who were chatting quietly outside the cabin heard Shen Guantong's screams and knew that Shen Guantong seemed to have discovered something.
The old man and the old woman didn't say a word, rushed to the cabin, and found Shen Guantong sitting at the door, his eyes as wide as copper bells, full of horror.
Looking along Shen Guantong's eyes, under the black cloth not far away, a miserable white blistered white human hand covered with corpse spots stretched out.
"Oh, the child must be frightened, come ......" Seeing this, the old woman hurriedly stepped forward to comfort Shen Guantong, but at this time, Shen Guantong couldn't take care of this, and turned around to escape.
found that the old man was standing at the door, his whole body blocked the door, and only a window the size of a person's head was open around him, and Shen Guantong couldn't escape if he wanted to escape at this time.
The old woman and the old man glanced at each other, the old man nodded at the old woman, the old woman sighed softly, stood up, and walked towards the black cloth not far from Shen Guantong.
When the old woman opened the black cloth, Shen Guantong was so frightened that the whole person seemed to have lost her soul, and lying in front of her was a neatly placed corpse.
Shen Guantong stretched out her hand and covered her mouth hard, at this time she was so frightened that her throat was a little silent, and Shen Guantong's forehead fell I don't know if it was the undried seawater or her own sweat beads.
She curled up and subconsciously retreated, while the old woman slowly walked towards Shen Guantong.
"Who are you, what are you going to do......" Shen Guantong said loudly to the two old men with a crying voice at this time, but the old man behind him seemed to be a dumb man and didn't say a word, but the old woman stood in front of Shen Guantong.
She leaned down slightly, stretched out her hand, and handed the towel she had just found to Shen Guantong, but Shen Guantong still cared whether her hair was wet or dry, and only thought about how to escape.
If you want to use force, Shen Guantong should be fine, but just seeing these dozen corpses, Shen Guantong's legs were frightened, and he could stand up somewhere.
The old woman didn't say much, she stretched out her hand to help Shen Guantong wipe the seawater on her head, and there was a kind smile on the corner of her mouth, Shen Guantong instinctively refused and pushed away the old woman in front of her.
I saw that the old woman in front of her had an unstable center of gravity and almost fell to the ground, but at this time, the old man behind him saw this scene and hurriedly rushed forward and helped the old woman up.
This woman is also about half a hundred years old, if she really falls, I am afraid that if she breaks a bone, she will also bruise her muscles and bones, Shen Guantong saw the old man walking away from the direction of the door, and rushed out from the door when he found an opportunity.
When she thought she had finally escaped death, she stood at the door and found that she didn't know where she had drifted now, and there was endless darkness around her, and she couldn't see anything clearly.
"Girl, oops......" The old woman shouted Shen Guantong inside, and Shen Guantong at this time was struggling to build his heart, and whether he could jump or not became a problem.
But seeing that he was getting farther and farther away from the lighthouse, and there was not even a lifebuoy around him, he was afraid that this time he was really in a catastrophe.
At this time, the old woman walked out with the support of the old man, and the old woman stepped forward and grabbed Shen Guantong's hand: "Girl, don't be afraid, we are not bad people." ”
Isn't it a bad guy? There are so many corpses, men, women, and children, and they say that they are not bad people? Presumably, they are small pirates who specialize in robbing passing ships at sea.
Shen Guantong thought in his heart and shouted at the old couple: "I...... I tell you, I have no money, I don't have a penny on me, and it's no use for you to kill me......"
But as soon as she heard Shen Guantong's words, the old woman in front of her actually burst out laughing, Shen Guantong tilted her head slightly and didn't understand, what was she laughing at.
The old woman slowly explained: "Girl, I think you have misunderstood. ”
It turned out that this old couple was really not a bad person, but the legendary "ferryman", who was actually a corpse digger. In this nearby watershed, there are always many corpses floating from the upper streams, or people who have drowned.
It was because of this that the two of them saw Shen Guantong just now, and they thought that Shen Guantong was a corpse that accidentally fell from the edge of the cliff, so they shook the flashlight.
It turned out that Shen Guantong was still alive, and the old woman ignored the old man's advice, and stepped forward to call Shen Guantong, thinking that she could help, after all, there were no passing ships around, and if such a big living person was lying there, he would freeze to death if he was not drowned.
I was afraid that Shen Guantong was afraid, and the old woman specially asked the old man to go back to the boat first and cover these corpses, so that it would not scare the little girls, but it didn't work out, and Shen Guantong still found out.
After the old woman's explanation, Shen Guantong looked at the two people in front of him with some suspicion, and the old woman said with a smile: "If I really want to kill for money, it will be difficult to do it just by relying on the two of us, don't you say?"
Thinking about it carefully, it was really such a truth, Shen Guantong blinked, as if he completely believed what the two old men said, but Shen Guantong realized something.
"Then why are we getting farther and farther from the shore?" Shen Guantong asked cautiously, the old woman still had a kind smile on her face, waved her hand, and motioned for Shen Guantong to enter the house.
The sea breeze outside was too biting, but in that cabin, Shen Guantong didn't dare to walk in anything, although he said that he was behind the door, but he had never been on the battlefield, and he had never seen so many corpses.
Seeing that Shen Guantong was unwilling, the old lady did not force it, and explained to Shen Guantong: "It's not that it's getting farther and farther away from the shore, but there are too many reefs around here, we are going around, you see, that's the shore." ”
The old woman said, stretched out her finger, and pointed not far away, Shen Guantong realized that there seemed to be some flickering lights in the distance, so he completely believed what the old woman said.
Seeing that Shen Guantong had let down his guard, the old woman nodded: "Don't worry, when you get to the shore, you will change into clean clothes, and we will send you home." ”
After speaking, he took Shen Guantong's hand and walked towards the cabin just now, Shen Guantong was unwilling at the beginning, but the cold wind was biting, so Shen Guantong had to follow in.
It's just that this room is too infiltrating, these corpses exude a faint smell of corpses, just now Shen Guantong thought it was the smell of dead fish, but he didn't expect it to be the smell of human corpses.
"These are poor people, too. The old woman stared at these corpses for a long time, couldn't help sighing, and said to Shen Guantong, who turned his head slightly, but still didn't dare to look at these corpses.
