Chapter 68 March Third

  After Liu Daqiang returned from Zhushan Guan, in the following days, Liu Quezi did not show any abnormalities.

  On the third of March, around one o'clock in the morning, Liu Dajiang, who had already fallen asleep, suddenly heard some movement outside the door. Although Liu Dajiang couldn't determine where the sound came from, after hearing it, he couldn't sleep soundly again.

  Helpless, Liu Dajiang had to get out of bed. He had to go outside and take a look at what was going on. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to sleep soundly. By now it was early April, and the weather had gradually warmed up. So Liu Dajiang just threw on an overcoat and went out.

  Liu Dajiang had just walked into the yard when he saw a black shadow at the gate of Liu Su's house. Before Liu Dajiang could see clearly, the gate of Liu Su's house creaked open and the black shadow darted in.

  "Thief!" Liu Daqiang shouted and ran over to knock on the door of Liu Zongzi's house with a loud thud.

  "Quickly open the door, a thief has entered the house!" Liu Daqiang shouted while knocking.

  But he knocked for half a day, and there was still no response from inside the door. His intuition told Liu Dajiang that something must have happened in the house. So Liu Dajiang had to grit his teeth, found a small knife, and slowly opened the door latch.

  For Liu Daqiang, the whole process of opening the door was quite smooth. After opening the door, Liu Daqiang gently pushed the big door open a crack and squeezed his body in.

  Because the lights were not turned on, it was a bit dark inside the house, but things within two meters could still be vaguely seen. Liu Daqiang often came to Liu Zuizi's home, so he was very familiar with it.

  After entering the house, Liu Dajiang did not make a sound. After all, now the enemy is in the dark and he is in the light, if he makes a sound, it may be disadvantageous to himself. Now, what Liu Dajiang needs to do is to quickly find Liu Duanzi. Then light the lamp, and let the two brothers join forces to catch the thief together.

  Thinking so, Liu Daqiang quietly went to the room where Liu Zuozu was sleeping. The door of that house was ajar, without closing or lighting. Liu Daqiang thought Liu Zuozu was still asleep, so he pushed open the door and walked in.

  As soon as Liu Daqiang entered the house, he felt that something was wrong. Liu Zhuo wasn't on the bed, and the bed was empty, not even a quilt. However, what made it even stranger was that there was a woman's underwear left on the bed.

  Those underpants, Liu Daqiang had seen them before, they were the ones that Liu Zaizai wore during the Spring Festival.

  At first when he entered the house, Liu Dajiang thought it was a thief, so he wasn't very scared. But now, after seeing that woman's underwear, Liu Dajiang is getting a little scared.

  However, Liu Quezi was his younger brother after all. Even if he was scared, Liu Dajiang had to grit his teeth and go up. Liu Dajiang clenched his fists, gave himself a boost of confidence.

  At this moment, Liu Dajiang found a kerosene lamp on the cabinet beside the bed, and there was also a box of matches next to it. Thinking that all ghosts are afraid of light, Liu Dajiang took out the match, struck it, and lit the kerosene lamp.

  As soon as the kerosene lamp was lit, the whole room brightened up and didn't feel so eerie. Liu Daqiang held the kerosene lamp and searched this room thoroughly, except for the women's underwear on the bed, he didn't find anything else unusual. So, Liu Daqiang decided to go search other rooms.

  Liu Dajiang had looked through several rooms in a row, but hadn't found anything unusual. Now, only the kitchen was left to check. So Liu Dajiang took the kerosene lamp and walked into the kitchen. As soon as Liu Dajiang stepped into the kitchen door, a hot wind blew from the back of his head, extinguishing the kerosene lamp in his hand.

  Liu Daqiang subconsciously turned his head around and saw a pale and stiff face blocking in front of him.

  "Second Brother, what's wrong?" Liu Daqiang shouted out as soon as he saw that face.

  Not bad, Liu Daqiang saw that pale face with no blood color, it was indeed Liu Zu's.

  Liu the cripple did not respond to Liu Daqiang's words, but stood stupidly in place, his face expressionless.

  Liu Quezi looked like this, Liu Daqiang saw it and couldn't help but feel a little scared. Now, Liu Daqiang knew that he couldn't handle this matter himself, so he thought of slipping out to invite that Taoist priest Mao.

  Just as Liu Dajiang was about to take off running, Liu Zhi raised the wooden stick in his hand and struck it against Liu Dajiang's head, knocking him unconscious once again.

  When Liu Daqiang woke up, he had been tied to the big pillar in the kitchen that was used to support the house beam. At this time, there was another person in the kitchen, and that person was his brother - Liu Quezi.

  At this time, Liu was bare-chested and wearing that pair of women's underwear. He lit three incense sticks in the center of the kitchen, burned some paper money, and muttered some nonsense to himself.

  Although Liu Daqiang is now tied up, he can feel that the rope is not very tight, because his hands can still move, and even try to untie the rope.

  Just as Liu Daqiang was about to untie the rope, Liu Zuozi suddenly picked up an axe and ran out crazily. After Liu Zuozi ran out, Liu Daqiang had already untied the rope that was tied around his body.

  At this time, Liu Daqiang could have run away by himself. However, he still couldn't put his mind at ease about Liu Zhuozi, so he chased after him in big strides.

  Liu Dajiang finally caught up with Liu Wazi after chasing him for three ridges.

  At this time, Liu was sitting in the old well that had not been used for many years, smiling foolishly. Liu not only smiled, but also from time to time made gestures with his hands and feet towards the surrounding air. He would touch it gently, pinch it gently, and then kiss it twice. The feeling was as if there was a woman sitting next to him, and Liu was courting her.

  Liu Daqiang's eyesight has always been good, he looked for half a day and still didn't see the woman next to Liu Zuozu. Either Liu Daqiang had an illusion or Liu Zuozu had an illusion.

  Just as Liu Daqiang was thinking about what to do next, Liu Zuizi's missing leg suddenly seemed to be bitten by something.

  "Ah!" Liu Quezi let out a miserable cry.

  Accompanied by Liu's mournful cries, the thing that had bitten Liu began to drag him towards the old well.

  That old well is nearly ten meters deep, although it has been abandoned, there is still water inside, and the water is at least five or six meters deep. If Liu Zhi really was dragged into the old well by that thing, Liu Zhi would definitely drown to death.

  Liu Daqiang would not just stand by and watch Liu Zuizi being dragged into the old well and drowned. So, he took a swift step forward and grabbed one of Liu Zuizi's hands.

  Liu Daqiang's strength is very great, although the thing's strength is also very great, but Liu Daqiang compared to it, at least in terms of strength, is not at a disadvantage.

  Now, that thing is dragging Liu Cui's lame foot, and Liu Daqiang is pulling Liu Cui's left hand. The two of them are like tug-of-war players, stretching Liu Cui straight out. Liu Cui is in the middle, crying out in pain.

  This may not be considered as being torn apart by five horses, but it can still be considered as being torn apart by two horses.

  Liu Daqiang knew that Liu Quezi was now in great pain, but to save Liu Quezi's life, he couldn't let go! If Liu Quezi was really pulled into the old well by that thing, then it would be truly irretrievable.

  Thinking of this, Liu Dajiang increased his strength, he wanted to snatch Liu Zuozi back from the hands of that thing. However, after Liu Dajiang increased his strength, the force of that thing also increased. In this way, the two sides still couldn't distinguish between each other. However, Liu Zuozi in the middle who was being pulled, his bones were already cracking and creaking.

  If this continues, Liu will be pulled in two even if he isn't pulled down the well. Thinking of this, Liu Dajiang slightly loosened his grip.

  It's strange that after Liu Daqiang's strength decreased, the thing's strength also decreased. It can be seen that the thing is probably tired too.

  After Liu Dajiang relaxed a bit, Liu Que's pain was indeed slightly alleviated. However, Liu Dajiang couldn't completely let go, or that thing would definitely drag Liu Que into the old well.

  Now, Liu Daqiang can only drag it out for now and then rush to think of a foolproof plan to rescue Liu Ruozhu back.
