Wang Xue nodded repeatedly and made it clear again and again.
He turned around and glared at Lu Xiaoqin, scolding her as to why she was still standing there?
Lu Xiaoqin buried her head very low, raised her hand, and slapped herself three times, "Pah!", feeling extremely embarrassed.
Wang Xue pulled her up and hurriedly got off the dock.
The second uncle patted the back of his neck, his complexion improved a lot, and said he would take me to eat something with oil and water so that I could go into the water and do some errands in the evening.
When we got off the pier, Huang Qi was still following us.
The second uncle said that the reason why he wanted me to fish out corpses was to see if I could learn the skills of a corpse fisherman.
He hopes I don’t lose my father’s people!
I nodded solemnly to reassure him! I will definitely dig out the body! Won't let him down!
There is a row of restaurants immediately below the pier. After dinner, there were not many people.
The second uncle sat down with the head family and ordered a lot of food.
After waiting for the food to be served, my mouth was watering when I looked at the steamed pork, cooked white, and pig's trotters on the table.
I picked up the bowl and chopsticks and started devouring it.
The second uncle didn't eat much food, but he drank half a bottle of Laobaigan, and his face turned rosy.
Huang Qi also ate with a smile on his face and was satisfied.
After finishing our meal, we returned to the dock to wait.
It wasn't until dusk that Wang Xue came back.
He was carrying a bamboo basket with a bright-colored rooster in it, and he looked respectful to his second uncle.
The three of us boarded the corpse boat and left Huang Qi at the dock.
Wang Xue pointed out the direction, and his second uncle was holding the boat at the stern.
During this period, my second uncle signaled me to change my outfit.
I entered the bamboo cabin and opened the wooden box.
The top is not a green hemp jacket, but a dark pig belly, a wrinkled cloth bag, and a dark blue hemp rope.
Isn't this exactly what my dad wears?
I immediately understood that my second uncle sent my father to hang the corpses and brought them back...
I was silent for a long time, took out my green linen jacket, put it on, and finally hung the outfit around my waist.
…
The light of day gradually faded away and darkness replaced the twilight.
The moon tonight seems like a huge eyeball, and the dead night sky is like a one-eyed evil ghost staring at us!
After more than half an hour, the corpse boat went along the left side and entered a river ditch.
This river ditch is so dark and scary.
The water surface four to five meters wide is covered with dark water plants.
The willow trees on the shore are tall, and the fluttering willow branches are like arms...
From a distance, the willow trees look like rows of evil spirits!
The farther the corpse boat went in, the slower it became. There were too many aquatic plants and they were too dense.
The second uncle whispered to Wang Xue to pay attention to the location, and when he reached the place where his son drowned, he told us to stop.
At the same time, my second uncle also warned me that this river ditch is very scary.
It’s not certain that a child’s corpse would move after being soaked in water for such a long time...
I was extremely cautious and looked left and right at the water.
There's something special about drowned corpses...
Only the newly drowned bodies will be at the bottom of the water. As time goes by, they will float to the surface.
Especially in places with heavy Yin and lots of water and grass!
I was also puzzled. Wang Xue's son was a young master after all. How could he die in this ditch with no village in front of him and no store in the back?
But now, it was obviously not appropriate to ask Wang Xue about this.
About two-quarters of an hour later, Wang Xue cautiously shouted stop.
The second uncle immediately fixed the corpse boat with bamboo poles.
Wang Xue pointed to the water in front of him tremblingly. His glasses fell to the tip of his nose and his whole body was trembling.
I looked over.
Instantly, I had goosebumps all over my body!
About ten meters away on the water surface, there was a cluster of dark and dense water plants, with many dark toads lying on them.
Among the water plants, the body of a boy lay quietly.
His skin was pale and colorless, and seemed to reflect a faint white light under the moonlight.
A pair of dark eyes were wide open, and the mouth was also open.
After watching for two breaths, I felt that the boy's neck seemed to move and his head seemed to be looking towards us...
A strange scene happened.
Its body suddenly sank...
At least from our perspective, it's invisible in the blink of an eye.
Wang Xue immediately panicked and said in a panic: "Quick! Get my son!"
The second uncle glared at Wang Xue and hissed!
I had moved to the side of the boat, my legs slowly entered the water, and then I entered the water and swam towards the right front.
The water is bitingly cold, as if there are countless pairs of little hands scratching my body...
I endured the discomfort and swam across the distance of more than ten meters.
Only when I got closer did I see that the child's body had just sunk a little and was submerged in the water.
I was inexplicably relieved.
The environment of this river ditch makes me reluctant to go directly to the bottom of the water...
I pushed through the thick water plants and soon reached the body.
I tied the green hemp rope into a noose and tied the boy's chest and abdomen.
After a little tugging, the child's body surfaced again.
Looking at his pale face so close, I found that the corners of his mouth twitched up, as if he was smiling, and his head tilted back slightly, as if he was about to break...
I shivered...
Wrapping the remaining rope around my shoulders, I turned around and swam toward the boat.
The shoulders were so heavy, this boy was so weird, he was as heavy as an adult corpse...
The second uncle on the other end seemed to have noticed something fishy.
He quickly gestured to me to get on the boat!
The distance was about ten meters, and it took me half a cup of tea to swim before I managed to reach the edge of the boat...
As soon as I clung to the hull of the boat with one hand, my second uncle immediately stepped in front of me and pulled me onto the boat.
Then, the two of us pulled the green hemp rope together.
The second uncle roared, and I exerted all my strength before I could pull the body out of the water...
The boy's body was stretched straight, and his dead face looked even more weird. His dark eyes seemed to be staring at my second uncle and me.
Wang Xue, who was on the side, was obviously frightened and sat slumped in the cabin, shaking.
"Fuck...why is it so heavy..." The second uncle cursed.
Almost half of the boy's body was on the boat, but it was even heavier underneath...
I frowned and glanced over the edge of the boat.
It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, this look scared me out of my mind!
Outside the hull of the boat, the boy's last calf was draped.
And his calf was actually being held by a woman!
That woman's hair is extremely long and falls on her shoulders!
Her dead face was full of viciousness, and her dark eyes were looking straight at us!
This is not the weight of a boy, it is clearly being held by this female corpse!
What we got was two corpses!
At this moment, the child's corpse suddenly became much lighter.
My second uncle and I almost used our full strength again!
This time, the child's corpse was "pulled" onto the boat by us with a whoosh!
Half of the female body was also dragged up by us!
My disheveled hair spread out with a crash and rested on my calf, like cold steel needles piercing my skin!
