Chapter 267 Sleeping Forest (5)
Chapter 267 Sleeping Forest (5)
The hunched figures were very short, probably only reaching their knees, and they were leaning on a crutch in their right hand.
Seeing the two men looking frightened, the old woman frowned and said unhappily, "Why, did I scare you?"
Liao Siwei reacted and shook her head repeatedly: "No, no."
"It's not scary, it's just too dark here..."
As Gao Lianmin spoke, his voice became smaller and smaller.
"Humph! You refuse to change despite repeated admonitions. What are you still standing there for? Do you want me, an old woman, to serve you?!"
The old woman snorted coldly and handed the oil lamp to Gao Lianmin.
He quickly took it, and the old woman's cane hit the floor, making a dong-dong-dong sound.
The oil lamp could only illuminate a limited area, so Liao Siwei followed closely behind Gao Lianmin, and the old woman led the way in front.
"Since you are a couple, let's live in one room."
The old woman looked at them with slightly cloudy eyes, and Gao Lianmin nodded repeatedly.
Liao Siwei also nodded. Although they were not really in a relationship, it was indeed better for the two of them to stay together in the current situation.
After watching the two people enter the house, the old woman coughed softly and left slowly with her cane.
The sound of "dong dong dong" became farther and farther away until it could no longer be heard.
“There’s something strange about this old woman.”
Liao Siwei watched Gao Lianmin put down the oil lamp, leaned close and whispered.
Gao Lianmin was stunned for a moment, "What's so strange about that?"
"When she came to open the door, did you hear the sound of her walking with crutches?"
Liao Siwei frowned, recalling the old woman's appearance as she walked with a cane just now.
Gao Lianmin shook his head and said, "I didn't hear it."
Less than a minute after they knocked on the door, it was opened and no sound was heard.
"But after she let us in, she kept using crutches to walk, and she walked very slowly."
"But when I came in just now, I looked around and there was no room near the door, so let's rule out the possibility that the old woman has been in the room all along."
Liao Siwei sat down on the bed and began her guess.
"That can't be possible that she knew it in advance and was waiting for us behind the door."
"Why not?" Liao Siwei asked Gao Lianmin.
Gao Lianmin was speechless. "But, but, why? How can this be known..."
At this point, a look of panic flashed across Gao Lianmin's face.
Liao Siwei showed a meaningful expression on her face, "It seems that you understand what I mean"
"Let's keep watch tonight, one person guards half the field, and leave when daybreak comes."
Gao Lianmin nodded, the panic look on his face still there.
He will be on guard in the first half of tonight, and Liao Siwei will be on guard in the second half.
Originally, because of the fear, he was not mentally sleepy.
But when I sat on the ground, somehow I began to doze off little by little.
Then he closed his eyes and fell asleep on the ground.
"dong dong dong"
"dong dong dong"
There was a sound of something knocking on the floor outside the door, but it sounded like knocking on the door.
"dong dong dong dong"
Perhaps because there was no response from inside, the noise outside became louder.
Gao Lianmin struggled to get up from the ground, then walked over to open the door, and saw the old woman staring at him angrily.
"It's already bright outside, do you still want to stay in my house?"
Gao Lianmin rubbed his eyes. He was a little confused at first, but when he heard this sentence, his expression froze for a moment and he immediately looked at the bed behind him.
But I found that the bed was empty and no one was sleeping on it!
"She, where is she?"
Gao Lianmin asked stutteringly.
"Who?" the old woman replied bluntly.
"That's it, the girl who was with me last night, my girlfriend!"
"I don't know, I just woke up too."
After the old woman finished speaking, she prepared to leave with her cane.
However, looking at the old woman's strange attitude, Gao Lianmin couldn't help but think that she didn't know.
It must be the old woman's doing!
Thinking of this, Gao Lianmin hurriedly stepped forward to stop her.
"Mother-in-law, you must know where my girlfriend went, right? She couldn't have left me alone."
"I said I didn't know, and you, a stinky boy, actually dared to stop me. You're asking for a beating!"
The old woman said this angrily, and hit Gao Lianmin's waist hard with the cane in her hand.
Because the height was not enough. If it was high enough, I think her crutch would definitely hit Gao Lianmin on the head.
Gao Lianmin cried out in pain and held his waist tightly with his left hand, unwilling to leave like this.
Liao Siwei was apparently fine last night, how come she disappeared after spending the night here?
Apart from the fact that it was the old woman in front of him who was responsible, Gao Lianmin couldn't think of anything else.
"Mother-in-law, please be kind enough to tell me, my girlfriend will never abandon me!"
He begged desperately, and the old woman stared at him intently. She seemed to be thinking of something, but she suddenly grinned.
Gao Lianmin was shocked when he saw the old woman's broken teeth.
"You haven't paid me for the night."
The old woman said coldly, stretching out her left hand with the palm facing up and asking him for something.
"Tell me where your girlfriend is first, and then I'll give you the reward."
Gao Lianmin swallowed and calmly distanced himself from the two of them.
The expression on the old woman's face was so terrifying, smiling and yet cold, her cloudy eyes looked at him as if she was staring at prey.
"Hey, young man, I wanted to let you go because of your honesty, but since you are so ungrateful, just come along with me."
The old woman finished speaking softly, and the next second, Gao Lianmin was hit on the back of the head by something and fell to the ground in a faint.
When he woke up again, Gao Lianmin felt his vision was a little blurry and there was a sharp pain in the back of his head.
This is, the back of the head is severely damaged, has it affected the retina?
He wanted to shake his head and try to see clearly what was in front of him, but then he felt his hands and feet had been tied up.
The sound of knives rubbing against each other was heard not far away. Gao Lianmin squinted his eyes to look. The fog gradually dissipated and he saw a frightening scene.
Liao Siwei was also tied up and hung in a spread-eagle position. A strange man was holding a knife and was gesturing at her body to figure out where to start.
Perhaps Gao Lianmin's gaze was too scorching, the man slowly turned his head.
It was a very handsome face, but the smile on his face was a little abnormal at the moment.
His eyes were the same eagle eyes as the old woman outside, and his cold eyes fell frivolously on Gao Lianmin.
He lowered his head and found that he had been stripped naked!
"Awake!"
The man's hoarse and deep voice sounded, and he put down the knife and walked towards Gao Lianmin step by step.
It is obviously a very handsome face, but there is a strong sense of incongruity on a man.
It was as if this face should not have appeared on him in the first place.
