Chapter 30: The Incident
Liu Jide and Liu Xingshan had already set off with people, and at this time, Liu Hong's study was still in darkness.
It's not just black, there's some panic.
They want to plot big things, so naturally they don't want more people to know, and even domestic slaves are blocked.
There are only five of their cousins here.
After Liu Qing blew out the lit candle, the room was dark.
When the doors and windows are closed, the candle that burned well suddenly goes out, which is indeed a bit scary.
There were two men in the room with a fire breaker, and they both took out their own fire folds and lit candles.
The room was lit up again, and they were finally at ease.
"Maybe the doors and windows are not closed properly, and there is a leak somewhere." Someone explained it this way.
Liu Hong is the owner of this study, and when he heard this, he carefully checked the doors and windows again, and found no air leakage.
"The doors and windows are closed very well, maybe there is a leak on the roof." He said as he sat back.
That's an explanation.
Anyway, the candles have been lit, dispelling the darkness, and the panic in everyone's hearts has decreased.
There are so many people here, and they are still not so afraid.
They sat down and began to continue the conversation interrupted by the extinguishing of the candle.
Liu Qing stared here, and after consciously sensing that Liu Jide was walking towards this side with someone, he came to the candle again, and blew out the candle with a snort.
Once again, the study was plunged into darkness.
"What's going on?"
"Why did the candle go out again?"
"Where does this wind come from?"
"But I didn't feel the wind!"
"What the hell is going on?"
Everyone panicked again.
This is the second time this has happened, and this time everyone is sure that no wind is blowing in, and then the candle goes out.
This is much more panic than the first candle blowing out.
The man who had the fire fold hurriedly took out the fire fold and wanted to light the candle again.
But Liu Qing didn't give them another chance, and the fire broke out before it burst into flames, and it was immediately blown out.
Ignite once, blow out once.
That's a little scary.
No one could feel his presence, but the fire that ignited was always extinguished at the moment of ignition for no reason.
Sometimes, you can still feel the presence of that wisp of wind.
It's a thin wisp of wind that gives them the feeling that it's a wind blown by a person.
But at the moment when the fire was ignited, they could clearly see that no one in the room was blowing this breath.
- They are all tens of years old, they are no longer the age to like to play pranks, and on such a serious occasion, unless they suddenly go crazy, it is impossible to do such a thing.
This is the case once, twice, and every time.
No matter how sluggish you are, you know there's something wrong.
It gives them the impression that there is a presence in the room that they can't see.
"This ...... What's going on? Why is it extinguished every time it ignites? "Someone couldn't help but speak.
The voices of the speakers were trembling, and the fear in their hearts could be seen.
"I don't know ...... either," replied the man who made the fire with a fire fold, trembling.
Both of his hands were shaking, and he couldn't hold the fire fold a little, and on two occasions he fell to the ground, and then crouched down and fumbled for it.
Someone whispered, "No...... It can't be a ghost......"
"Don't talk nonsense!" The rest of the people rebuked.
But the voices of everyone who shouted were trembling.
Apparently they were all afraid.
No matter how brave a person is, when they encounter such a strange situation, they will inevitably panic.
They are all people who grew up listening to ghost stories, and the fear of such strange events belongs to something engraved in their bones.
Especially the owner of this study, Liu Hong, is still burdened with human life, and once forced a girl to commit suicide.
"Thirteenth brother," the sixth couldn't help but ask, "there is nothing unclean in your room, right?" β
"I didn't ...... No......" Liu Hong replied.
But there was a clear emptiness in the voice.
"Or ...... Or is that the end of our meeting for today? "Someone proposed.
When this proposal came out, everyone echoed it.
Then he fumbled to open the door.
Before they could touch the door, they heard a bang outside, and then a bright light hit the papier-mΓ’chΓ© window.
"It looks like the outside door is ...... down"
Someone whispered.
"It seems that someone is coming," someone said, "and there are quite a few of them." β
At this time, they all forgot about the ghost blowing the lamp, and fell into an even greater panic.
The footsteps of a group of people approached the study.
And the lights.
Next, I heard Liu Jide's angry voice:
"Kick this door open for me, I'll see what those rebels want to do!"
Hearing this, the faces of the brothers in the study changed greatly.
A thought arose in my heart: "It's over! It's happened! β
At this time, there is nowhere to run if you want to.
I just can't figure it out, how did the old man know about this?
"Could it be that our brother is a traitor?"
The Liu family compound is a large courtyard, which is divided into multiple small courtyards, and Liu Hong's family lives in a small courtyard.
A few of them discussed important matters here, and first tied the door of the outer courtyard.
When Liu Jide and the others came in, they directly kicked the courtyard door open.
The small courtyard is not big, and it takes a dozen steps to reach the academy, and a few people carry lanterns to illuminate the courtyard.
Seeing that it was dark on the other side of the study, a trace of hesitation flashed in Liu Jide's heart:
"What if there's no one inside? Maybe my second brother and I just had a dream, and there was no such thing in reality. β
The idea flashed through him, and he quickly rejected it.
"Father has become a god, he has performed many miracles, and it is impossible to deceive us this time."
He was a believer in Liu Qing, and there was a hint of hesitation in his thoughts, but he immediately became firm, and he ordered the people he brought to kick the study door open.
A big man walked in front and kicked at the door of the study.
There was only a loud bang, and the entire door panel was kicked off.
The afterglow of a few lanterns passed, and several people stood in the shadows of the study.
The lantern moved over, and they were shocked to find that those people were all descendants of the Liu family.
Seeing that these people were in the study, Liu Jide and Liu Xingshan had no hope left in their hearts.
- These rebels are really plotting here how to imprison them in the name of madness.
Liu Jide was so angry that he trembled all over, and he couldn't stand on his feet a little, and he had to use crutches to maintain his body's balance.
shouted angrily: "Someone! Tie me up these rebels! β
The nurses brought by Steward Zhou looked at each other and didn't dare to do anything.
The eldest lord gave an order, but the few people in the study were also masters, and they couldn't offend.
The brothers in the study were all frightened, and some people cried directly: "Dad, we were wronged, we didn't do anything." β
Although he knew that they were not wronged, he still wanted to gamble that the two old ones did not know about their plot.
The person who spoke was Liu Xingshan's son, and when Liu Xingshan heard him say this, he was angry and sneered:
"Thanks to you rebels who haven't done anything yet, if you are allowed to do it, my eldest brother and I, will we be treated as crazy people and locked up for you? I wonder if you have discussed whether to chain us or tie us up with leather ropes. β
When these words were spoken, the brothers in the study all knelt on the ground with weak legs.
They knew that this time there was no quibble.
I just don't know how these two old people know about this.
Some of the things they said in this study tonight, and those who spoke and heard were in the study, and they never went out.
How do these two old guys know?
